the Chauffeur" Miss Clara Shyne as
Mrs. Joddrell Jenkins" an aspir-
ant for standing in high society, and
Mr.. B. A. Neveins as Mr.. Joddrel

the creditable manner in which they
handled their respective parts. 9th

were Miss Laura Tanner as Fluffy
Ruffles," Mr.. Carl Won Schiller as
Lieut. Com. Whipple,' Mr.. Fred w.

title borrowed from an earlier book,
says the London Chronicle. The IA

Foxe with the printer Day of Alders-

took an active part. On the tomb
stone of Day In the church of Little

thus immortalized:

PIGEON TRAP FOR
 4TH OF JULY SHOOT Rifle Club Receives Trap-De- feat Other Two 0ppoS-
 ing Teams

There was little comfort in the camp of the Bisbee Rife club when the delayed results at the other end of the telegraph tickers in the matches with Santa Ana told that the locals had taken every team into camp-except Tacoma.
 Besides taking the local match from the picked team from the Sixth cavalry, the Bisbee team defeated Santa Ana Cal, a member of the Pacific Coast Rifle league, by the score of 767 to TAP. The locals also defeated the Concord, Cal, team al 200 yards, the score being f16 to 4CI.
 The match with Seattle was not shot. It has not been learned why the match was postponed by Seattle This match will probably be shot 1n July. This is the second time Seattle has postponed the match.
 The new pigeon trap ordered by the local club some time ago has ar rived and will be ready for use at the Fourth Of July matches.

Champion Esa Layers.

Many insects are extremely prolific All of the order Hymenoptera. the bees and ants. lay large numbers. but they are easily excelled by the order Plecop- tera. the stone flies. one female of which deposits from 5000 to 6000 eggs But the champion egg layers are the insects embraced in the order Isoptera. the white ants. Dr. Howard states that these insects are called white ants because they are not ants and because they are not white. but he further goes on to tell us that the females of some of the African species grow to an enor- nous size, and their abdomen. swollen with eggs. becomes as big as a large potato. The rate at which the eggs are laid is extraordinary, being about sixty a minute. or s0.0oo and upward a day.

NARROW ACTIVITY IN
 MARKET YESTERDAY
Bears Encouraged to Try to Beat Down Prices, but
 Without Success

NEW YORK, June 9.-The conspi- cuous movements in stocks today were confined to a few issues, most of which have been prominent for some time on account Of their strength
 The bear factors, which have been unusually aggressive lately with ln- different success, made few attempts today to depress prices. but the mar ,ket displayed sufficient strength to meet these attacks easily.
 The chief points of strength in the market were Canadian Pacific, which advanced g to 2425, new high re- cord: the Fries. Tennessee Copper, a number of specialties such as Amerl- can Beet Sugar. Westinghouse Flee tric. Western Union and Sears Roe buck. All of these issues gained a point or more.
 Erie common rose to the highest point reached in a year or more. The sluggishness in stocks diverted spec ulative interest into the bond mar ket. which exhibited greater relative activity. Large transactions occur red in New York City 4"s. Atchison convertTbles. Wabash, Pittsburg and certificates of local traction securi- ties.
 The statement Of the condition oi National banks. to be made as re- suit of today's call on the comptrol Ter of the currency, is expected to dis close generally favorable conditions
 The known movement in money for the week indicated a considerable gain in cash by the banks, more than 9.O0O. GOO having been received iron the interior. as against loss of more than 1000. 900 to the sub-treasury and the shipment Of 1. 900. 900 to Canada.

YOUNG SARDOW AND
 HARTzElL ID MEET
Strong Man and l76 Founder 10 Clash on Mat at
 Lowell

There will be a mat mill at the Lowell club tomorrow night between YoHng Sandow, the little big strong man who held the boards at local theaters several days ago. and Kid Hartzell There will be a prelimi nary match between Sam Smith and William Hawley.
 Sandow will not meet Chester Grow here, he said yesterday. Grow ar rived in the city several days ago and since that time he and Sandow have been together almost constant ly, becoming fast friends.
 We have been seen together on the streets for the last week and we could not afford to go on the mat together" said Sandow yesterday. While each of us might do his very level best to put the others shoul- ders to the floor, which we would if we agreed to a match, there might be some that would make a cry of a frame-up on the strength of our known friendship"
 Sandow said that later he and Grow might wrestle at Phoenix, but that they would probably not meet in Bisbee or Lowell. Sandow real izes that he will have his hands full with HartZell tomorrow night, but believes that he can put the big fei- low down.
 It is likely that Grow will meet Hartzel some time following the match Sunday evening. Grow weighs in at about 172 pounds. stripped, and Hartzell weighs in at 176, just four pounds difference. Wrestling fans believe that a mill between Grow and Hartzell would be a sight well worth seeing
