"All the Comforts of Home," William

produced In this city a number of times,
but was never seen to better advanlase
than as Riven last nlpht by the Wright
MmiliiiKton Stock company in the
Academy of Music. It is a compuny of
liiKh class nit iMs, immeasurably su
perlnr to the usual repertoire compa
nies that pluy at popular prices.
'rile biimiir ol' tllllctt.-'s comedy Is de
veloped from its situations rather than
the dialogue, and a poor company
would simply ruin it. The splendid
manner in which the comedy was Riven
last nil-lit Is the best possible tribute
to the ability of the members of the
company. -Mr. Huntington was seen in
the role of Allied Hustings, t lie central
Injure id' the comedy, and added to the
line Impression he made .Monday night.

acter work lis Theodore I'.ender, and

John 1 1 1 f 1 i i Sousa and his matchless
1 hi t ii I will, as lias been slated, give a
grand concert on Friday night at the
FrntliiiiShum. .Not only this city, but
the communities around and near it
will be thrilled by a desire to hear the
performances the great Sousa will con
duct. Sousa's band Is held to be the
greatest instrumental corps outside of
an orchestra In the world today. For
eign bands, it Is claimed, have no right
to dispute Us supremacy. The re
nowned musician at its head Is a com
manding illustration of tin- truly mag
netic leader. To his peculiar power, al
lied to the talents of his men, may be
traced the admirable excellence of the
force ns a whole. Sousa's own marches,
as rendered under his own direction,
are like Strauss' waltzes played with
Strauss handling the baton. In fact,
Sousa inuy fairly be called the Strauss
of mnrchvs. His compositions have
carried Ills name to almost every spot
where there Is an Instrument on which
a march can be played,

Then the thrower nf this stone, McAn

we had turned into Drinker street, the
limb of rimers was greatly increased in
numbers, und with Increase in numbers
came Increase in violence. Several ladies
were struck by the flying stones, und at

simply observed lp us "I am hit. and I fear

assisted by Keller, helped him toward the
Dourest house, calling on some one to
'phono for a doctor.
The dours of this house were not opened

As they entered uiiolher shot fired at

This closed the testimony of the plain

Heap big Injuns Who Would Like the
Pension building.
From the Wushlngton Star.
foloml Creen, privnte secretary of
Representative P.luo, of Kansas, tells a
story about the Indians who were here
recently negotiating with their white
brothers about their lauds and giving
society buds lessons in harmonizing
colors in wraps. The Indians were
tuken all over the city by an Interpre
ter, and through all tho government
buildings, und linally rounded up in the
pension department, where Colonel
Green met them.
"Now you have seen all the buildings
that belong to the tlrent Father.," re
marked Colonel tiroeti, "which on
would you like best for your own if
you could huve one'.'"
The Indians guve ti comprehensive
guzi around the pension building, and
then, with one accord, said, 'This.'
"There you get Hie Indian of them,"
Said the interpreter. "They like it lie
cause it is red."
"Is that it?" asked Colonel tlreen.
"Why do you like this building best'."
"Heap much nice ctn-rui:" ejaculated
one. "High all round; keep horse In.
keep ox in: pond in middle, ull UHuk;
topee ull round, live In! These make
heup lire," pointing to the desks mid
cabinets; "play curd all day there," In
dicating tho marble Honrs.
