HINDU SAYINGS.

Your name?" MY name is Laziness'
"You eat?" "A dozen loaves or So"
"You drink" "a jar of milk, 1 guess
You work." I'm but child, you
know"
Why risk with men your hard-won
gold?
Buy grain and sow-your brother

Will pay your a hundredfold-
The Earth commits no breach OF

A FOOLS a fool through all the years;
No art can teach a hen to swim,
And cutting off a donkey's ears
Won't make an Arab steed of him.
I'll walk with Fate, and thus compel
The bitter jade to go my way;
The Jackal, tumbling down the well,
Said wisely, Here I'll camp today
The Merchant takes his evening meal
And sleeps in simple hardwood;
But, though his bolts and bars are
steel,
The door itself is fimsy wood.
Four eyes to spy the faults of men
-Four ears to catch all words of spite
Two tongues to pay them back again
You'll need at least eight hands to
fight.

America and Europe to see what the

NEIGHBoRs IN COURT.
One Woman Fined for Shaking Child
of Another Woman.


A neeighborhood war was adjusted this
morning by Acting Judge Aukam in the
Police Court. A fine of 81 was imposed on
Mrs. Florence Thompson on conviction
upon a technical charge of disorderly con-
duct. The court followed this with a
terse but pointed lecture on the duties of
one neighbor to another, directed at Mrs.
Thompson and also at Mrs. Mollie
Schwartz, the complainant.
The scene of the war was on M between
Sd and 4th streets southwest last We'd
nesday. The specific cause of action was
the shaking of one child, four years old,
by the mother of a second child four
years old. Mrs. Thompson was the mother
who did the shaking
"She came down to my house." said
Mrs. Schwartz, the complainant, through
an interpreter, land she shook my child
just like that-shook, and shook, and
shook. And then she almost twisted my
child's arm off-in my front yard My
child and her child fights
'She shook my child" testified Mrs.
Thompson in her own behalf. 'She shook
him about week before 1 shook her
child. Because she shook my child 1 lust
shook her child. l didn't mean any
HARM"
Yes. they fight-these children do an
swered Mrs. Thompson in reply to oues-
tons by the court.
I'll make it 81 this time" announced
Judge Aukam. but don't let it occur
again. You people go back to your homes
and live in peace

Luna Park.

Vaudeville in the open air has become
very popular at Luna Park judging from
the large crowds that have been attend
ing the free vaudeville shows each week
offered by the Luna Park Amusement
Company.
One of the best vaudeville shows of the
season is offered at the park this week.
Persons going down to Luna Park this
week can spend a pleasant evening sit
ting out in the open air receiving the cool
breezes that blow through the park and
meanwhile take in a good show.
John Chinese Leach in his Chinese
representation was very clever and did
not fail to please the large audience. Miss
Adelaide Francis. comedian and vocalist,
sang well and received hearty applause,
which was we'll deserved. Pettingill and
DeForrest comedians. singers and dane
ers. gave a good singing and dancing act
which proved themselves very clever. The
Lawadas, with their hand and foot bal
ancing. who were seen at the park last
week. repeated their former act, which
was Il success.
Prof. Sineay's dog and cat pantomine
is one of the best animal acts that has
been seen at the park this season. The
animals performed some very clever tricks
and almost showed human intelligence.

THE TIL EAT E R i.
"The Serenade."

The Aborn Opera Company did it's best
to prove to the National Theater's audi
ence last night that the 'Serenade.' first
choice in the recent voting. contest. was
a splendid vehicle for its ability, and by
giving performance that was full of life
from start to finish they captured an
audience who came to see an old favor
lite revival
The "Serenade.' which was born in
that part of stageland where cheap must
cal comedy is unknown, is good. whole
some. digestible comic opera. with plenty
of good music, lots of real comedy and
plenty of life. There are so many good
parts to it that every one of the princi-
pals and at times the chorus have a
chance to show exactly what Is In them.
Last night it was all good From the
entrance of the Duke of Santa Cruz,
played by William Schuster, and his ret
inue of cooks, house servants and garden
ers to the final scene, the whole COM
pany danced and sang as If the thermom-
eter had been at a normal height. The
chorus plays a big part In THE Sere-
nade." and by some little trick of staging
and costumes reminds one very much Of
that lively little bunch that used to dance
around Pete Daley in the old days when
Weber & Fields were in the same ring.
1t would be hard to tell who received
the greatest applause last night, for ev-
cry one got more than his or her share.
Edith Bradford, who was nearly swept
of her daintily tripping feet by the per-
feet roar that greeted her, came in for
a great share Of it, but so did Forest
HUFF, Huntington May and Harold Blake.
When George B. rockingham, playing
the part of Gomez, the tailor. appeared
for the first time. the audience seemed
to take him right into their arms. and
then settled back for a good time. Per-
haps rockingham works hard. but he
does not show it, for he seems to have as
good time on the stage as any one who
Is watching him from the other side Of
the footlights.
Blanche Morrison as Yvonne, was
Splendfdly received. Her waltz song, with
its f1ute-like staccato, is one of the most
beautiful parts of the opera.
Every one Of the numerous scenes was
we'll done. The scene in the first act be-
tween Edith Bradford and Forest HUFF
is especially difficult but is splendidly
played. The music lesson, in which COM
edy and good singing have to be mingled
with rare skill. gives every chance for
boorish overriding of the whole thing.
but Forthingham and Phil Branson and
Blanche Morrison seem to have caught
the right spirit.
The very funny second act, where the
monks on one side of the fence and the
convent girls on the other have two lit
tie operas going on at the same time
kept the audience laughing. 1t would be
we'll to watch the two convent girls who
dance while the monks are learning a
new song. They had to come on several
times last night, and made a distinct hit
Then there was the angelus song and
the dukes funny carol about Woman
Lovely Woman" and not at all the least
popular was that good old favorite.
Dreaming, that the audience encored
time and again.
Altogether THE Serenade" made a hit
and those who voted for it will be salts
fed with their choice
