1.-THE COWBOY AND The

In The Lieutenant and the Cow

have romantic drama wherein
western life is most admirably pre-

which is new, and there is enough
comedy in each scene to keep the
audience in excellent humor from
the rise to the fall of the curtain.
Anyone who ever saw life in fort
on the western frontier will readily
understand how realistic the scenes
and incidents are. The story has
to do with soldiers, cowboys and
Indians, but is by no means cheap,
rampant melodrama. On the con-
trary, it is an absorbing story of real
western life, true to the west, and is
presented in a most adm irable man.

Vanity of the Peacock.

Our favorite and much petted pea
cock, says a correspondent of the Lon
don Spectator, can be kept happy any
length Of time looking at his reflection
in the window pane or in a looking
glass. He comes in daily to tea, max
ing no mistake about the hour, and
spends much time en- route in gazing at
himself as he appears in the glass of
the French windows by which he en-
tiers the room. If I am sewing and do
not speak to him when he comes into
the room, he will gently put his head
quite close, almost touching my ring
or needle, for he likes bright things,
till I have to give up working and talk
to him as with a small child whom one
Is afraid Of pricking.

more than 100000 voters, will adopt
a permanent policy through an amend

GRAFTON to any political policy and an
effort probably will be made to bind
the organization to keep entirely out

the future The matter will be
brought up soon after the convention
assemblies in the form of resolutions,
both approving and condemning the
action of President Gompers and the
members of the executive board in
supporting the Democratic ticket in
the last campaign. The fight against
politics in the organization will prob
ably be led by socialist members, who
have always opposed the Introduction
