At the Par mele Thursday night, December 21. Christmas n'ght, December 25, at the Parmele theater, will be seen the greatest of all modern dramas, "The Lichen ilo.aiy." by Kirkpatrick Boone, which comes to this city un der the direction of the Syndicate, fre.-h from a series of triumphs in the east. The play deals with the marriage game, and the sale of beautiful young girls to wealthy men by their mothers. It is a wonderful protest against conditions as they exist today, and the play write has pointed out the remedy by making the piincinle character of the piece a priest, who, in the charge of his clerical duties prevents a great crime from being committed. The dance Saturday evening at Coates' hall, given by the Cosmopoli tan club, was attended by a large crowd of dances, who spent several hours there most delightfully in the enjoyment of the new dances. The feature of the evening was the giving away of the fine ten-pound turkey, which was secured by No. 49, held by C. II. Lohman of Omaha. The draw ing of the number was made by little Miss Margaret Sherwood, and the winner was able to return to his home in the metropolis with the basis for a good Christmas dinner.

Subscribe lor The Journal. The near approach of the Christmas season is bringing out the usual notices from the state fire commission in regard to the dangers of fire starting from Christmas tree decora tions and the use of candles to decor ate the trees with. This danger is especially great where there are large trees with a Santa Claus to distribute presents, as Santa Claus quite often gets his whiskers singed or burnt by the candles used and many a very se vere fire is started in this manner that causes quite a loss. In these modern days a great many have adopted the plan of using small vari colored electric lights for the use of tree decorations and this does away with a large element of danger that has existed so much in the past. The trimmings that are used in the work of decorating are also manufactured with a view of making them fire proof but still we often hear of a Santa Claus and tree that has gone up in smoke and the state commissioner de sires to impress upon the public the great danger from this source and their timely warning should be heeded by all those who are thinking of fix ing up a Christmas tree and the dec orations made as near fire proof as possible.
