Manager I. NJ. Schwartz of the Re-
liable Play Producers (Inc) announces
the coming of the beautiful musical
comedy The Kissing Princess" at
Hatch's opera house on Wednesday
evening of next week, Aug. 81.
The scenes of this attraction are
laid in one OF the provinces of Bagdad
where the Shah of Bagdad is coming
to claim the Princess for his wife.
The Princess has never seeu the Shah
and when the American appears on
the scene he is taken for the Shah.
The American is in this country for
excitement and decides to bluff his
way through. At this point the real
Stah appears and is laughed at by
his subjects. It is here that the plot
is stirred up. and though it only takes
five minutes to stir up it takes two
and one half hours to cook to a we'll
done point.
Along with the music and stage
full of pretty little gitlies are the
General and the Army of Bagdad.
These two roles are filled by two
clever comedians, Mr.. Lew Rose and
Mr.. Mack O'Neil, who keep the house
on the happy side of life continually.
Seats are selling very rapidly for
this engagement.

Ending of a Fakir.

Last spring, about the first to
middle of May, a stick stranger
claiming the name of Paul Hawley
canvassed Lancaster and other cities
in this part of the state, taxing orders
for The Designer fashion magazine,
offering trial subscription for six
months free. He got many subscrib ers,
and collected from each one % cents
which he claimed was to cover the
expense Of postage. It was not an
entirely new scheme but many
women, while expressing suspicion
thought they would take chance"
and handed over their quarters. OF
course the man was fake agent and
the magazine never came. After
leaving Lancaster, Hawley was heard
of at Dubuque. where he also met
with good success but was later ar
rested for fraud, tried and convicted,
and last week was taken to Fort
Madison, Iowa to serve a term in
the penitentisry. He admitted to
the police that he had worked his
game in many cities with abunda Mt
success.

SIZE OF BANK NOTES
TO BE CUT DOWN
Bills of All Denominations Will Here
after Be Considerably Smaller
In Size.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 1.-The
size OF all United States currency and
national bank notes probably will be
reduced by one-third and their de-
signs revolution lied by Secretary of
the Treasury Mac Veagh for the sake
of economy convenience to the public
and precaution against counter felt
ing,
It is proposed to make the dimen-
sions 6x211a inches. The paper money
now in circulation measures 1888. o.
inches. The designs of all paper
money United States notes and certi-
icates and national bank notes
would be systematized and made uni
form for every denomination.
This move is expected to save the
government about 5000. 600 annually
and the national banks, which pay for
the plates for their notes and part
of the cost of redemption, about
5000, 900. The economies would be
effected in steel for the plates. in
paper and in labor.
For many months the only deter
rent to the step by executive authority
has been the belief that it would be
necessary for Congress to appropriate
about 81, 900. 900 to replace the ma
tional bank plates which have been
paid for by the national banks
This problem has been solved by a
plan to have the general design of
all national bank notes uniform re-
quiring only one engraved plate for
each denomination, and TO place on
the notes by surface printing the
name, location and charter mum Der of
the bank. This would do away with
separate plates for each bank.
To meet the objection that for a
time at least there would be two sizes
of currency in circulation, it has been
suggested that the government print
in advance sufficient quantity of the
notes of the new size to be exchanged
at the subtreasuries and national
banks on a fixed date. The change
could be substantially accomplished
within few days. treasury officials
believe
Each denomination would be
characterized by a distinctively
American historical portrait engraved
in the center of the note.
The department is considering US
ing portraits as follows: 81 note,

$40, Cleveland; $50. jackson; $50.
Grant 500. Franklin; $500, Chase,
and ST.. 900, Hamilton.

THE WILD WEST SHOW
FAILED TO COME HERE
Their Train Went Into the Ditch
Near Platteville.
The Wreck and Bad Weather Caused
1O1 Ranch Show to Cancel Lam
caster Date Last Saturday.

The 1O1 Ranch wild west show that
was advertised to exhibit at Lancas-
ter last Saturday met with train
wreck near Leslie, short distance
out of Platteville at an early hour
Saturday morning, caused by the rails
spreading. and four or FIVE cars went
off the track.
Eight of the show company's horses
were killed and five others injured.
1t took several hours to get the track
repaired and the cars onto the track
again and it all had to be accomplish
ed in pouring rain.
Owing to the delays, which would
have made a parade and afternoon
performance here impossible, also to
the extremely unfavorable weather,
the management reluctantly decided
to cancel their Lancaster dated and
proceed at once to Evanston, ILL.,,
where they were dated to show on
Monday.
In spite of the rain a great many
people came to Lancaster Saturday TO
see the show, not having heard of the
wreck. 1t is matter of regret all
around that this company was unable
to exhibit here. 1t is a big show,
carrying about 500 or 800 people, with
% cars, and few of our ciCizens who
have seen the performance this year at
other places say it compares very
favorably with Buffalo Bills wild
west company. Had the performance
taken place with favorable weather
there is no doubt that many thou
sands of people would have been
here to witness it.

Happened Monday Evening When
Everybody Was Absent from
the Building

Fire. Fire Fire Such was the
cry that alarmed the residents of the
third ward Monday night at about
10 20, when the average se0ate house
holder was just sinking into his fret
peaceful slumber. Very soon there
after the clamor of the fire bell pealed
forth and brought everybody out of
their beds and hundreds followed the
hose cart as it hurriedly rumblei
through the mud down south Madison
street.
The fire was in the two story frame
residence belonging to Mrs. A. L.
Spencer, near the home of Louis Alt
in the south part of the city. The
fire department got into action quick
ly and the flames were soon
subdued. but not before the west and
south sides of the building and much
of the roof had been destroyed.
The origin of the fire is as yet un-
known, as the owner was not at home,
having gone out to the home OF her
son in-l law, Roy Garthwaite, in the
township of Little Grant. during the
day.
The house is practically new,
having only been built about three
years and the loss is estimated at
about $1,000. There is some Insurance.
but just how much is unknown at

court at Atchisor County. Missouri,
the case of H. Staple VS. Charles
Traub was tried. The suit was
brought on a long standing account
and among other items was 16 years
subscription or the Atchison County
Mail. MIR. Traub refused to take the
paper from the post Office and mail
box a number of times. The plaintiff
proved by postmasters. deputy post
masters and others that Mr.. Traub did
take the paper during all the is
years In the case it was shown that
according to law, even if a subscriber
has ordered a newspaper discontinued
or refused to accept it. he cannot get
out of paying what he owes for the
paper, and the subscriber @ust pay
the arrearage before stopping the
paper.
The jury in this case was out only
short time and brought In q. verdict
for the entire account, including the

true reasons for the demand for it. the
conditions which made a larger intel

STEERS SELL UP TO

New Price Record Result of Shortage,
According to Cattle Buyers

New Price Record Result of Shortage,
According to Cattle Buyers
Chicago, Aug. Z. Steers establish
ed a new price record at the stock
yards for the second time this week.
One load of Illinois fed steers sold at
$40. %, or Is cents higher than the re-
cord made on Monday. The mark of
that day was also passed in the case
of another lot of steers, which sold at
So 10. Range steers came to the
front also with new record when
IS. 80 was paid for one lot of native
bred western steers.
The recent advance il price of
cattle on the hoof, according to the
stock yards men, is simply the result
of shortage, which never has been
SO marked as now. Cattle feeders are
short on unfinished steers, and high
feed bills have forced them to market
many steers before they were really
ready for the market. Traders are
anticipating even higher prices.
