the neighbors admitted that he was

JEFF Riley had been engaged to Far

months and all parties interested
were satisfied with the match when an
event happened The Riley family re-
ceived a letter from Mrs. Riley's SIS

coming on a visit. Her name was
Boyle, and as she was 40 years old
and had never married, she properly
came under the head Of a spinster.
The sisters had not met for years,
but It was understood that Miss Boyle,
who had quite an income of her own,
put on more or less style.

had not answered. She had come in

There was nothing OF the sort. Miss

AMUSEMENT NOTES.

Bert La Mont's musical ensemble
"Boys and Girls was presented at the
opera house last evening, and the audi
ence present was one Of the smallest
Of the season. The musical comedy was
hardly up to the standard already set
by other companies playing here the
present season, but several features Of
the piece combined TO make it accept
able to the audience. Jonathan Keefe,
as David Thurston' the Broadway
rube. created much mirth and interpreted
to the satisfaction of everyone a role
which Is usually overdrawn. George T.
Allen as "Solitere," in the scene show
ing the cowboy camp, gave several inn
itations of barnyard denizens, and de-
monstrated unusual ability in mimicry.

added life to the piece, "The Lady and
