The entertainment given at the
opera house on Monday evening by
Huntress and his company did not
draw a large crowd on account OF 1t
being The closing night of the big
revival meeting, and the fact that
the Idle Hour had the Titanic dis
aster pictures for that evening, but
those who attended enjoyed one OF
the best and most unique entertain
rlents ever seen in Leon. Huntress
is a top liner as an impersonator
and carries a world of fine special
scenery. His costumes were exquis-
tie, and he was ably assisted by his
pianist and violinist, who are sololsts
of rare ability. The dances by Hun
tress were something never before
seen in this city. His entertainment
is one which should be winner, for
it has true merit.

The republican county convention

The New York city republican com

Of Es2 to II.
The st. Louis republican committee
has rescinded by As to l previous

Judging by these figures from
widely different centers, it will not
require much money to Organize

committee probably means, but Will
not admit, is that it needs money to
