The statement of the treasurer, G. W. Phillips, while purely statistical, was interesting, neverthelesp, and gave the audience a concise under standing as to the present condition of tbe association.

Friday night the banquet will be held, whioh will practically be one of tbe big nights of the opening week Charles H. Ya'e takes pleasure in send ing out his --Everlasting Devil's Auc tion' Company, and this year the introduction of a number of European specialties is particularly pleasing to tbe ladies and children. This is a strong feature of this production-, and to this point have been engaged the famous Inza and Lorella, Aprobatic Grotesques. These artists were among the recent im portations of Elsw. & Erlanger's Ad vanced Vaudeville, and upon the term ination of their engagement with this noted firm, were secured by Manager Yale for his 'Devil's Auction" Company The scenery, mechanical, transformation and trick changes, have alwaj.s been one of the "Devil's Auction's" strongest features, a fact fully appreciated by its management and not lost sight of in this tbe 28th edition. Quite a number of new scenes and effects have beeo pre pared, notably -The Devil's Volcano" with marvelous electrio effects. "The Realms of Mephisto" introducing at tbe finale of this scene a most original snd novel instsneous change to a full stage "Set" representing --The' Beautiful Val ley of Andoche" two new comedy trick scenes, "The Gates of tbe Castle Mor pheus, and the "Magic Picture Gallery" which in conjunction with tbe magnifi cent "Gardens of the Manikins", 'The Grand Tournament Scene", -TheSphinz Soene," with its many other elaborate changes too numerous to partioularize, promise to make the 28th edition of "The Everlasting Devil's Auction" the most notsble production of its pbenom ical career. Tuesday's dailies announoed the ap pointments of supreme judges made by Governor Sheldon Monday, and Judge Sullivan of this city was included in tbe list, the others being W. B. Rose, assist ant attorney general and Jesse L. Root of Cass county for two years, and J. J. Sullivan of this city and Jacob Fawoett of Omaha for a term of one year, Judge Sullivan being tbe only democrat ap pointed. The appointment of Judge Sullivan meets with the endorsement and hearty approval of his many friends. The Omaha Bee, in sneaking of the ap pointment, eays editorially: The demo crats of the state certainly cannot, and the republicans will not, criticise the restoration of Judge 8ullivan to the bench. Judge 8ullivan had the distinc tion of beiag the first demoorat in Ne braska to sit on the supreme bench and he left a record that entirely warrants his appointment at this time by Gover nor Sheldon.
