This has been ft day of ideal fall
weather. With an atmosphere aB"oloiir
OH a bull , " just enough breeze from the

mill ) poets rave and all humanity ro-
julco. The mud had not dried milllchmtly
to admit of the highest enjoyment of
the temperature and other weather con
ditions , but many enjoyed it regardless.
'Iho foliiigo that had not yet Inien af
fected by the frost WIIH either a bright

When the nuako-oater gathered up his
property at the corner of Main and
Fourth streets yesterday morning , ho
purposely or negligently forgot some
thing. It was ono of his largest snakes ,
used for exhibition purposes , and nil day
yesterday and until this morning the
critter remained in the mud near' the
sidewalk and attracted the attention of
a number of people. It was said by
those who examined it to bo alive but
the cold weather had rendered it so
sluggish that it scarcely moved and thcro
wus some question as to whether it was
alive or not. About 8 o'clock this
morning it had disappeared , but whether
its owner had called for it , got hungry
and eaten it , or whether it had been dis
posed of by someone who did not ad
lire reptiles as pets or eatables is not
: uown , anyway it has disappeared
uuch to the gratification of those who
wssed the corner.

"Midnight in Chinatown" WHH pro-
ontod before a slim audience at the
uditorium last evening. For a first
lass Attraction , Hiioh an thin waH repro-
iontod to Manager Spear to bo , it WIIH
ho poorest excuse that has been here
'or a long time. The stage nottingB of
ho ploco were fairly good but the pro-
lontution of the play WIIH abominable.
The actors were all stiff and uncomfort-
ifolo and not ono articulated BO ho could
) o hoard half way across the room.
The ono redeeming feature of the per-
'ormanco WIIH the tramp character ,
Which was passably good , but stage
, ramps have boon BO overworked in the
pant few years that they have become
decidedly monotonous. 1'crhaps the
'act ' that the play was presented to
1 largo number of empty seats had
something to do with the indifference
with which it was given , but legitimate
ictors are supposed to do as good work
ivon at rehearsal as before a full honso.
No blame can attach to Manager Spear
for the character of lust night's attrac
tion , as it came to him highly recommended
mended OH being first class In every
particular. The best of managers are
fooled somotimeH.
