tive element, but ono thing that can bo
said in her favor ia that for a western
city sho takes but little stock in wild
cat Bcheiuos and investments. For in
stance as u place to tloat mining stocks
-it's not tho market. St, Louis, St
Paul, Minneapolis und other cities aro
fur better places to get rid of such pa
Ir. Tho theatres hero havo generally
dono a fair business since tho close of
the fair und many of tho houses huvo
dono big business, notably Hooley's,
whoro Mr. and Mrs. Kondal aro now
closing their seventh week to crowded
houses nightly. Sot hern bus closed a
very proiitublo engagement ut tho Col
umblu in "Sheridan or tho Muid of
Hath," and tho "black Crook" has re.
peated its former success at MuVickor's.
"Texas Stoer" at tho Grand has mot
with popular favor and Russell's Come
dians have made a great hit in u new
farce called "About Town," a play writ
ten with tho bcodos laid in Chicago,
Milwaukee uvenuo being the central
point of viow. Tho .Chicago Oporu
house has held enthusiastic audiences
nightly and Johnny Russell will doubt
less secure a ropitltion of the success
mado by tho "City Directory." Felix
Morris,that superb champion of tine dra
matic art.has been acting teveral weeksat
theSchiller.preseutlng two or more potlto
plays each evening. Ho appears to ex
cellent advantago in three different
characters, fully showing his capability
in a wide range of work. On his final
week the bill was "A Game of Cards,"
"The Vagabond" and "Moses," tho latter
a new production in two acts, in which
Mr, Morris appears as a Hebrew and
hows a most excellent conception of a
part that ia brim full of bright comedy.
Corlnno after a five months stay iu Chi-
cngo has plnjod her limit engagement,
tho long run coining to an end at tho
Alliambra Haturday evening of last
week. "Ilondrlck lludsoii"has received
a most gorgeous presentation, and really
tho play Is one of tho big lilts of tho sen.
son. One feature In particular is par.
excellence. Tho tableau and grand
aimixoulau drill In tho last act, shows
many Intricate movements, while tho
costumes, whlto satin with white beaded
and sliver olToots, aro tho llnest seen In
Chicago In a long time. Corlnno as
usual carries out her part well and has
several now and catchy songs that never
fall to return her to tho footlights..
Corlnno Is a veritable child of fortune.
She Is always receiving miiiiii splendid
honor or gift. Tho last is another token
from her devoted mother. Corlnno does
a neat little specialty with a mandolin
in tho new piece and in it uses an instru
ment, tho handsomest and costliest in
existence. While at tho fair last sum
mor Mrs. Kimball observed and took
quite a fancy to the prlo mandolin ex
hibited by Lyon A Healy. It was en
tirely covered with pearl and ornament
ed gold fastenings. It took llrst honors
and was Immediately entered for tho
exK)sition at Antwerp, Mrs. Kimball,
however negotiated for It at tlm close of
tho fair and Dually bought it for $1,500.
Tliis is tho mandolin that Corlnno uses
in "Htndrloklludson." Now a beautiful
monouram "V, K. is Doing made, sol in
diamonds, which will bo placed on tho
linger loard and whou Corlnno appears
in Lincoln next week Mrs. Kimball will
place it on exhibition for a few hours
during tho day. Of course all lovers of
tho mandolin will go wild ovor it. Mean

When Leonard Mori Is, of Cliico, went
into a French restaurant on Lukin
Street, near Grove, at 7 o'clock last
night, he had lovely red whiskers a foot
long and an appetite of which any man
might be proud. Half an hour later Mr. ,
Morris appealed In tho receiving hospl-i
tal us bald an a now squash and his face !
full of blisters. Ho also had shrimps j
down ins hacK, ami was altogether as
uncomfortable as a person could lie.
Tho only object Mr. Morris had in going
to the restaurant was to eat something.
Ho had no Idea of committing arson on
himself, but that dire misfortune over
took tho unhappy person from Chlco.
"Will you havo tobblo doto?" Inquired
the waiter, an ho slapped a moist napkin
down iu front of Mr. Morris.
"Well, no," ho replied, In a hesitating
manner. "Von can just fetch me iu
something to eat."
Tho waiter smiled ami opened out
with soup.
The man from Chico was at homo in
that department, and the llsh and en
trees stood no show with him whatever.
Ho also called for a bottle of brandy,
and spilled several "ponies" of ho liquor
among his luxuriant whiskors. When
the dessert came on Mr. Morris was
feeling llrst-rale, but as tho waiter placed
on tho table a plate of plum pudding
from which leaped forked tongues of
hluo Ilamo the diner grew uneasy. Ho
said nothing, however, but when tho
waiter turned his back Mr. Morrip, of
Chlco, bent over and tried to blow out
tho ilamo on tho burning sauce. As ho
did so tho tip of his brandy-soaked
whiskers came in' contact with tho bluo
Ilamo and Morris at once resolved him
self into u No,v Year's torchlight proces
sion of ono.
With a wild shriek ho aroso and start
ed for tho kitchen, passing between two
rows of tables tilled with startled feed-
ore.
nil
Tor nenvon s siiko put mo out, some
body!" yelled Mr. 'Morris, clawing wildly
ut his illuminated hair and whiskers.
A couple of waiters started in pursuit
us tho living holocnst turned tho lower
ond of tho dining room und took tho
buck trnil. Tho odor of burning whisk
ers wus suffocating, nnd a cloud of black
smoke hovored Jn tho wako of Mr. Mor
ris. As ho ncured tho cushior's desk tho
proprietor, with grout presence of mind,
grubbed tho soltzer bottlo und turned u
stream on Ids sizzling customer. At
tho sumo moment a quick wittcd wuiter
dumped a hugo bowl of shrimp salad
ovor tho head und shoulders of Morritf,
which acted us u complete oxtinguishori
"Hub tho lire department been Bout
for yotY" faintly inquired tho victim of
brandy sauce, us ho wiped tho salad
dressing out of his oyos und drew a
hundfull of shrimps from his bosom.
Morris wus not seriously burned, but
ho wub somewhat oxcltod. After his
wounds hud been dressed ho said:
"Hereafter cold grub will do for mo. I'm
no Bidamnnder." Smi Francisco Ciro.

And then sho fell into his arnm.
But it wasn't in tho hut chapter
of
tho novel.
It wus in real life along the capital to
boggan slido, park street, ono day last
week.
And sho weighed a great dsal more
than tho heroines in novels ovor woigh
und she wus neither young nor beauti
ful. And it wus bo entirely unexpected, for
ho wus ubsorbed in picking his danger
ous but dignified way up tho icy stretch
towurd the stuto house und guvo no heed
to tho avalanche that wub sliding down
upon him.
And then ho was buried under it und
two fruntic nrms wore excitedly ut
tached to his neck in whut should huvo
been u rapturous embrace. But it
wasn't. ,
Sho tottorcd to her feet and caught at
tho side of a building with what wub
mount to bo it posture of haughty indig
nation, nnd, as impressively as u woman
whoso hut Ih crooked and whoso buck
hair is fulling down may deliver herself,
sho pronounced ono freozinc word:
"Sir!"
Tho thormomotora nil over tlio city
felt tho depression in ho utmosphoro.
Ho wus ojcupied iiufeollng tho depres
sion in his now dorbj Ho drew Uiim
solf up with as much dignity as was
compatible with tho retention of his
equilibrium, and with u pained accent
in his voice ho suid:
"Mudum, I assure you,' und then he
sat down on tho pavement ut hor foot
suddenly und impressively.
Nut she hud discreetly unfurled tho
screen of hor big umbrella und tukoi to
tho mlddlo of tho street, lcuvlng him tho
cynosure of ull tho smiles in tho vicinity.
And then ho picked himself up und
started towurd tho stuto house, Baying
things that immodiutely made tho mer
cury rise to tho top of Deacon Hill.
