COLUMBUS, MISS.

Columbus, Miss, February 10. (SpeciaD D--The Columbus Ice Cream and Creamery company, which for some- time rast has occupied quarters at COL eos College street, is to extend it's ac- tivities, thereby forcing the Columbus Commercial to vacate the building at the corner of College and Sixth streets, and the paper is preparing to move into the building at 214 South Market street, formerly coupled by the Broken Dollar store. This building is larger and more centrally located than the one at present occupied by the Commercial and will give the paper in creased facilities. The Columbus Ice Cream and Creamery company intends to materially increase the scope Of its operations and the building to be ad- dcd to the plant will be used as milk depot.

Gayety.

A large audience at the Gayety last
night enthusiastically greeted the
"Bowery Burlesquers," a show re-
plete with songs and dances and con-
tanning some new ideas in the bur-
lesQue Held, notably a realistic repro
duction Of an. aeroplane that makes
an ascension at the close of the first
act. Joe Hurtig has built an en-
firely new show around his two come
'dians. Frank Harcourt and Billy Fos-
ter, a pair that work together with
smoothness born of long associa-
ton. Harcourt's songs and dances
and Fosters funny grimaces kept the
audience in almost continual laugh
ter and their portrayal of a couple
ord-breaking trip around the world
was most amusing.
But the male members of the show
were not the only ones in the lime
light, for a more capable trio than
Kitty Glasco. Dolly Sweet and Libby
Hart has seldom headed the female
contingent of a burlesque entertain
ment Miss Glasco sang a number Of
songs and displayed a voice Of dis
tinctly pleasing quality, and Dolly
Sweet made a hit with her rendition
of Spanish song, while Miss Hart
sang number of the popular songs
of today. The chorus is well gowned
and will run second to none on the
circuit in the matter of pulchritude
and ability to sing and dance. There
are several specialties introduced,
chief among which is the singing of
Marty Seamon, Arthur Mallon and

dancers offer a brisk repertory of the
famous stage dancers, ranging from
the highest type of the ballet to
prettiiy staged and costumed. The bill
opens with Thressin's dogs, a pleas

WANTS MORE CURRENCY
REDEMPTION WORKERS

In asking for an appropriation of
s156, 900 to enable him to put 1877 addi-
tional employees in the currency redemp-
ton agency. John Burke. treasurer of
the United States, has notified Congress
that the agency is SO far in arrears that
$50, 000,0 900 of the Treasury's general
fund has been advanced in payment of
national bank and federal reserve cur
rency in process of redemption. With
drawal of this sum for meeting current
expenses. he explained. is the equiva-
lent of losing interest at the rate of Az
per cent, or $500 a day. but the net
loss is reduced approximately $4,000
daily because of the 2 per cent interest
the government receives on deposits In
special depositaries.
Increase in the agency's personnel, he
said, would not increase the government
expenses because the banks would re-
fund the cost Of redemption.
