A couple of gentlemen coming to

gentlemen over get a seat -on a West

"'hen tho two gentlemen arose to

annoyed by the giggling and snicker-
women for whom they
htg of the two women
had made way.
Embarrassed by tliat, they looked to
-co it their ties were on straight and
'heir appurel otherwise In order. Be
fore they had finished the self-inspec
tion. they heard one of the women
murmur to the other:
"Say, de guys are trying, ter make a
mash on us."
Whereat the modest young' gentle
men sought tho refuge of the front
platform. '
About five hours later, one of the
gentlemen In question heard the steam
piano of the Pawnee Bill circus, and
of course lie rushed to the street to
see the parade.
There on the top of one of the wag
ons was a Turkish Woman. She spied
the gentleman immediately, then she
shouted to the smtke-rharmor on tlie
equipage behind:
"Say, Maine, look! Dere's de guy

Then each threw him n kiss.

HEARTRENDING APPEALS
FOR SUFFERING SALOONS
T'. ill,
casual observer at the coun-
11 meeting Monday afternoon It could
'ml but have appeared that the coun-
< ii Is composed of a most heartless set
’' Individuals.
The pleas made by the disgruntled
saloon men, whose licenses have been
revoked, were almost enough to melt
“ heart of -tone. If that heart were not
dictated to by a mind of reason. The
argument* for the granting of fran
1 hb.os to saloon men—rather ex-saloon
a —were us varied aa they were
Natlietfc,
This man, just a few months ago,"
- i'l one attorney, "Invested every
'•ai thly cent, he had In thle saloon. If
y-m refuse him this license, you take
from him tho savings at year* of
! "il, force him Into the bankruptcy
"|iit, and leave him a pauper."
Ijere’s another plea:
This saloon is tho only means of
■ ' "llhood this poor man has. He lias
blight little daughter In school. This
sbl Is the pride of the teacher. ■ Take
“"ay from the father this license and
"m «-|n take away from his girl her
brightest hopes. You will rob her of
“o education by forcing her father to

n. fuse to grant his license, and you

never violated a single law of the city,

“" “'IS of livelihood."
"'•II another was along this pathetic
bright and happy a ghi am
ever lived."
There were others who pleaded along
this line:
“If you .can't giant this poor man a
license, at least give him six months to
close nut his business. Let him sell Ills
goods, protect his repututlun, save Ills
family and himself from financial ruin.
Do something for him. Don't, with Just
one stroke, blast his life and the lives
of those dependent upon him."
4nd not a plea of the entire outfit
secured one single vote from council.

actress In the country nor I* "Doro

play ever seen at the Grand, but Miss
Burt ami her company afford a very
pleaHunt evening's entertainment, nev.
crthelese.
Charles Major's beautiful story of
wilful, bewitching Dorothy Vernon and
John Manners' love affair Is too well
known to need synopsis. The'drama
tists have made most of the possibili
ties of the book. The. play Is hand
somely staged and entertainingly pre
sented. The audience at the Grand
Monday night was small but apprecia

calls at the close of the second act.
Mis* Burt came forward anil made
most gracious acknowledgment In u
pretty little epeech.
Miss Burt's Dorothy Vernon I* a
disappointment In Ihe opening scene,
but she rises to her difficult role there
after. Mr. (Hanford's John Manners Is
creditable. The best bit of work In the
cast Is that of Alfred E. James as Per.

The formal opening of the El Dorado
Monday night by tfie Baldwln-Melvllle

as the attraction was a thorough. suc

Jack Rose,. the. hero, artistically In
terpreted by Richard' Buhler, to that
of Mrs. Lane, tlie mountaineer's wife,

ever been revealed In New York, comes
direct from Its triumphs at the new

tom. the weaver. Is vastly amusing. A
feature of the iierformance that Is in
keeping with the text and spirit of
the play Is the Impersonation of Oberun

It Is said that to be a good play every
play must be capable of being reduced
to fine particles and the resulting prod

something rational out of the wreck
age. Occasionally'there Is u line here
and there which will stick out In bold

and make Itself felt as well as heard,
but not many dramatic products will
furnish as much good material as "The

Saturday matinee.
