U. P. Will Reopen Case. That the Union Pacific will reopen tho cose of the contested right of way ovecj'most of its system, which has beoril repeatedly decided against the company, seems certain. It was thought that tho decision against the railroad by tho Unitod States circuit court of appeals and the passage of the bill introduced by Con gressman Norria of Nebraska had finally concluded the railroad's claim to the 400-foot right of way, comprom ising properties 'n Nebraskn, Kan sas, Colorado and Wyoming. Millions of dollars were involved in the original suit and the amount will be larger this time:"' It Is stated that the Union Pacific will carry tho caso to the United States supreme court and will likewise contest the validity of the Norris law which limited the right of way to 200 feet instead of 400 feet.

"I Want to Hear an Irish Band Play on St. Patrick's Day," the song hit of tho Friars' Frolic, brings this opening to on epic finish. "De Go Lightly Guards' Reception," is the pretontious afterpiece and is said to bo the best farcical sketch ever written by the inimitable "Honey Boy." Its book, lyrics nnd music nro from his pen; "Cicoro Didimus Jones" is tho nomenclature given him as a roustabout darky, and when later, mainly becauso of hunger and partly because of n bribe of two dollars, ho impersonates "Gen eral Wof Woof," a valient African military loader, ho is said to stir up a maelstrom of mirth.
