 The first act is by Felton. the silly athlete, who is a swift one with punch ing bags, introducing many novel fea- lures, such as keeping six going a+ once. initiating a train, and it makes no difference to him whether he uses his fists head or feet.
 It is a pretty picture which the scene for the Lass O Lomond displays and the number, the topIiner of the bill, is an unusually pleasing one Scotch songs are introduced and beau tIfully sung, the audiences finding true delight therein, while the pretty love story holds the attention
 The return of Hammond & Forester to the city was enthusia stically vel comed, as they are two of the cleverest entertainers the local vaudeville stage has had the pleasure of seeing. Brigh. sparkling and funny are they in their songs and comedy and they get q Jig hand.
 The Clemenzo brothers introduce a novelty in the musical line s well Ss several acrobatic features which make tableware. play several instruments and close by playing on the garden fence Their human railroad train aught the crowd $ did their entire bill being something pew and pleas ing.

Peers on the Platform.

One of the novel features of the present political campaign In the United Kingdom is the appearance Of so many peers on the platform. Hith- erto, by an unwritten law. members Of the house of lords have abstained from any direct participation in the election of members of the house of commons such participation has been regarded as an unfair attempt 10 influence vot- CTS. But in contest brought abo uf by the action of the house of lords, In which that house is the direct object of the attack, it was inevitable that the ancient custom should succumb. The lords have been talking directly to the voters. and for the most part doing if very well.
 The conditions of political campaign ing in the United Kingdom are mate rially more exacting than they are in this country. Here a republican can didate addresses republicans for the most par:, and the democrats stay away. He talks to an audience that is already convinced and is cheered, moi hissed. On the other side of the water the speaker more often is talking to hostile hearers. who "heckle" him. If is great test of resources and of good temper and the lords appear to be staHding it so well that their pOpu, lnrity with the masses is rapidly in creasing Providence Journal.
