THEATRICALS Christmas.tractions to be pul on at Nevin's. CHARMING AMY LEE in Lotta’s Famous Success "Pawn Ticket 210" Will be Served Rome's Theatre Goers Tomorrow Night. The- Christinas attraction for this y«ar is one of m;re than ordi nary interest. Amy Lie comes in Latta, old success Pawn Ticket 210, This is a,drama of intense interest and the Company surrounding Miss Lee is one of the most capa ble ever gathered together. Frank Doane, wh> assunais tin character of Mautague Fiasti, is an exceptionally pleasing C >mylian and the character of Flash being one'iu which pure Armenian chock s the chief characteristic, gives him a splendid chinca to display his ability. “Paw j Ticket 210 is one of the star attractous of th i season and will recive liberal support. Cer tain it is that Rome theatre goers should not miss a chance tosi« an actress so much like the late Pat ti Rosa as amy Lee. —o — The opera house manag emen takes pleasure iia offering such a good line of holiday attractions! and ask the patronage of the pub lic. —o For the New Years attraction little need be said for the names are enough in themselves to assure a good attendance. Mrs. James Brown Potter and Mr. Kyle Ballew form one of the very strongest combinations on the American stage t >day. Probably no actor of one half the reputation or recognized abali ey of Mr. Ballew, has ever had any , thing like the vareid covern, he has been almost every thing—sol dier, explorer, chorsten, actor and ] many other things. Coming from ] the works of the English nobility, j he has had exceptional advantages ] and has indulged his whims when- , ever fancy dictated A curious little habit of hisstill j olings to him as evidence of a chap- . ter or his past life. i The way in which custom by de- ] grees becomes habit is curiously j illustrated in the manner in which < Kyrle Bellew drops his eyes or ( turns away his head whenever pass ing a woman in the streets. The . reason is as curious as the fact. , M. Bellow was for some time a student in the Monastf'y of the Redemptorists in London, and the custom inculcated there has nev er forsaken him. —o — These two show's are offered to Romans for Christmas and New years. Two such shows as these should be most lib -rally suppor ■ed. CHINESE HIGHBINDERS. A Reign of Terror in Mongolian Quarters of San Francisco* San Francisco, Dec 22, —Chinese highbia ders have inaugurated at reign of terror in the Mangolian quarters. The bandits, many of whom are ex-oonvicts, who have escaped the deploration clause of exclusion act, driven to desperation through poverty, and burglaries robberies, shootings and stabbings are of baily occurenca. Chinese women of the worst class and small traders are the most fre quent victims of the higbmders who are pillageing right and left. lhe Mongolian police force em ployed by the six companies are apparently afraid of the highbind ers and even with the civic police tueu are unable to stem the tide of crime raging in their district. Mammoth Stock of shoes consisting of $35,000 worth of stock at cost at S. N. Kuttner • HAM ANO EGGS Ben was the steer. He was a great ■ m-ek-eyed, docile linking fellew, but it was a case where appearan ces were decidedly deceiving. There wasn’t a horse or mule in all the [country around that could beat j'Ben in a square fair trotting match, ' and he was as skittish as a young I colt. \\ dll do I remember those big limpid orbs that could look at you as softly and tenderly as a sweet heart, but my, you couldn’t build a fence high or strong enough to ■ keep him out of a field if he took [ a notion he wanted to go in it. Bens besetting sin was his tenden cy to run away under any and all circumstances. It is about this special trait that I wish to tell a story. One day the doctor sent his two boys, Toni and Jerry with Ben and the wagon to the mountain just back of the house, for a load of rails. It was a pretty steep incline, and a narrow road wound up to the summit. The boys left the steer standing in the road, while they proceeded to bring the rails fr*m the woods, where they had been split, and place them on the wagon. They had a biglut of rails on, and had just gone for the last two, when Ben had decided he had waited long enough. Off he started at break neck speed down the steep mountain, leaving the boys stand ing in the road stupified wit'i amazement. As the terrified bovine continued on his mad career, rails drop pel by the wayside like autumn leaves. When he finally reached the farm house in the valley below, his side g were steaming and his breath came in sharp gasps. On the wagon was one solitary rail. Far up the moun tain side rails Jay at intervals from top to bottom. The boys came in a little later, mad as nornets, and Ben was placidly nibbling grass by the front gate. “Today is Friday and we are all having a quiet day of it,” said a prominent merchant the other eve ning. “But you may notice it in branches of trade, and at any time of the year, and Friday will always prove a dull day. I have been in the merchantile business many years, and I have paid particular attention to this fact, and I never knew it to fail. In the big cities merchants always take that day for straightening up and replenishing stock. Saturday and Monday are the busy days now. Time was when nearly all of the trading was done on Saturday, but the custom is gradually shifting around to Mon day. ” Mr. and Mrs. Harry Rawlins were the recipients a few days ago of a Christmas present which they value very highly. It was a beau tifully bound volume from their mutual friend Mr. Edgar L. Wake man, the distinguished Chicago writer. The volume was bound with loose sheets on which were pasted forms from the pen of Mr. Wakeman. In the front was a splendid picture of the donor, and written on the blank page just op posite was, To Mr. and Mrs. Har ry Rawlins, with best wishes from their friend Edgar L. Wakeman. The forms are all selected from the best of the writer’s composi - tions, and no gift could be more highly appreciated by Mr. and Mrs. Rawlins. I stepped into the Central Hotel the other morning, and after look ing over the register, carelessly closed it. Say for heavens sake dont close that bosk. said Johnnie Root, the genial clerk excitedly. It startled me for I could not ' imagine what in the world I had done to cause such an outbreak. So I proceeded to inquire into the whichness of the wherefore. : ‘-Why man, dont you know that : it is the worst luck that can hap : pen to a hotel to close ths register. I have never known time when bad luck failed to follow a hotel after shutting a register up.

I saw that the Telephone patent had expired and I thought what a great seller it would be at a low price. I saw the advertisement of W. P. Harrison & Co., Columbus, Ohio, in your paper. They had just what I wanted—a Telephone just like the rich city business men have, and I have been selling them for two menths and have made as high as $50.00 per day when I took a large contract, and never less than $5.00 a day, selling the Tele - phones. I sell them outright, there is no royalty. Everybody wants them. Anyone can put them up, and 1 believe they are the greatest convenience and the best seller on Earth. Anyone can make big mon ey who can sell goods at all. So many young men are out of em ployment now, I fsel it my duty to bring my experience before the world, so that this winter, with times as hard as they may be, money can be made by those who are now sore distressed.
