THE HOME OF SURPRISES.
N.w Fealures i DE CaIoniaI Theatre.

The patrons Of The Colonial-s'T The
| Home Of Surprises" ami features, to
use the gallery gods expression, had
one pat ever on them last night, the
biggest surprise yet was given them.
Ben Toys Musical Comedy Com
pany presented 8 clever little offer
! ing. 1t had a nonsensical plot, which
afforded plenty of good comedy. Then
there were good clean, musical num-
bers by the chorus. One of the big
gest hits was "The Old Black Crow
number, which was forced TO respond
to several encores.
The costumes are pretty and the
/ scenery carried by this capable little
company adds greatly. The girls are
pretty and above the average of usual
musical comedies. The show is clean
and free from any Objectionable fea-
lures. Taken as 4 whole, it is the
best ever seen here for the money and
from all reports it pleased the criti-
cal first night audiences and bids fair
to have crowded houses the balance
of the week.
Manager Irons stated this morning
that many last night were under the
impression that there would be only
one show each night, and wishes it
to be distinctly understood that there
will be two shows each night just the
same as your regular vaudeville shows
at 7:I6 and 8 80 the doors open at
.64:5. Prices, 10 and 20 cents. II is
good, big show for your monsy and
one you will enjoy.
Friday night will be silver night,
and there will be six or seven pieces
Of table silver given away immediate
ly after the first performance. Watch
The Capital for other announce
ments. Remember. a new show each
and every night. The Colonial photo
play program IS given in addition to
the big show.
Tonight "The Girl in Gold" will be
presented, also Mr.. Ben Toy will offer
his big musical act. The pictures
for tonight are "The Old Folks
Christmas, ""His Wife's Strategem"
and Conflicts End" All three are
exceptionally clever productions.

WHERE HORACE MADE SONG
Sabine Home Rendered Immortal BY
Poet stlII Retains All lie Famous
Beauty.

A few verses written two thousand
years ago have rendered the little val
ley Of the LicenEa one OF the most
famous places within easy reach OF
Rome. Had Maeceas been less gener-
Gus q patron. had he never given the
Sabine farm TO Horace. had Horace
never told the world and hts friends
how his days there were spent, few
would now make the classical excur-
sion into the Sabine hills. though
time has not marrsd their beauty.
The villa of Horace has disappeared.
but the hills are as lovely as they.
were in his day. Now, as then. IL one
goes from Rome TO Tivoli. and thence
to vilovaro. there turning up the val
ley OF the Lioenza and wandering on
by road, as one must. since there is no
railway, be comes, some few miles far
ther, to = great rock that springs abb
ruptly from the lower slopes and Tits
over them at an interesting angle.
This is the citadel Horace had TO
scale" to reach his house, and marks,
II is thought. the boundaries of the
farm. The only difference is that the
little village of Roccagiovine rises on
top. where of old stood the Temple OF
Vacuna, already In ruins when Hor-
ace sat under its shadow TO write to
his friend In Rome. The little town
had done its best to meet its classical
responsibilities, and has given the
name OF the temple to It's piazza.
Here still are the olives that pay
the Sabine farmers best. and the vines
that yield the rough little Sabine wine
that Horace has made.more renowned
than many rarer vintage Here are
the hills where he wandered, and the
woods that gave acorns to his focks
and shade to him. Here are the bab-
bling spring and the banks upon
which he rested during the hours he
counted his happiest-the Bandalusian
spring to which he promised immor-
tality In his song. And as he prom
ised SO he gave. Not merely the
spring, but all that vast estate, which
the satirists Of his time would have
men believe was but "a lizards hole"
he has made immortal.

There 10 a small Siwash village
near Seattle where the squaws DO

one old Indian whose baskets are big
ger, brighter and better than all the
other baskets made in the village and

comes back from his frequent trips
to Seattle with any of his stock left
over. Neither does he return loaded
up with f1re-water like his brother In

calico, and gambling has no charms
for him. He carefully saves all his
money because he wanted to own
three white mans luxuries, q tele-

Already he has had q telephone put
in his tepee, and though he never has
more than one or two calls IN year
on It, and then from some person or
dering baskets, It is constant source
If pride and qualification to him. He
will sit for hours in silent admiration
before it, and puts the silent receiv-
er to his ear dozen times day. He
also has a bicycle, on which he rides
about the country with a load of
baskets, and he is now saving up for

The lions OF Westminster are legion,
some in the flesh and others in stone
or marble: recently there has been
an addition to the menagerie. around
which there IL an agreeable halo OF
mystery.
In q gloomy niche half way down
Westminster hall there is dimly to be
deserted gray stone statue OF king
which has Just been taken out OF the
Architectural museum and perched
aioft. There is a heavy crown on his
head over long flowing hair. the beard
is rippled and majestic. In his left
hand he holds the orb. but the scepter
hand is gone. The old king broods
over the hall OF kings.
The experts are puzzled over his
history. He stood In Westminster
hall for many centuries side by side
with other stone kings and aIl were
tidied away by the government In
1856 Recently it occurred to Lord
Beauchamp to try the effect OF bring
ing them back. Several OF the beauti-

inches suitable for statues, and all

places in them.
This first one is a beautiful person

or whether II is merely an ideal figure
of majesty, bat it is certain that he
is the work OF some fine fourteenth
century craftsman.

II Is universally known that milk
turns sour after thunder storm. This
has been attributed to the large guam
tity of ozone which is liberated by the
electricity In the air. The experiments
of Professor Trillat in Paris do not
confirm that theory. He has estab-
lished that atmospheric depressions
cause putrefying gases-normal qui-
esoent-to rise to the surface Of GER
tain substances, and in support OF his
theory points out that odors Of all
sorts are more permeating after
storms. These atmospheric depres-
sions accelerate the decomposition OF
gases and tend to liberate them.
Hence Tactic ferment is produced.
Professor Trillat has made many ex-
periments with diverse substances un-
der varying pressures and has OBJ
served that when the barometer is

composition of gases is most rapid
