thoro Interest d in tho Consolidated or
some other private cnterpiise anil tho
litiKbenr with which they will attempt
to frighten tho voters Is this: Oh, yes,
your water rates will be lower, but
jour taxes will be doubled. TliK they
say, will be tho icsult of bondlnp tho
city Now It should not be forgotten
that Judge Hliono pointed out a way to
ncqulre municipal water without issu
ing a dollar's worth of bonds, and he
gave It as by far the best way. The
Interest on tho plant will, according
to this plan, be taken out of the water
le venues nnd will not affect taxation

THEATRICAL.
A Wonderful Woman.
In a dramatization of one of Frank
Stockton's odd conceits built around
the Incident of a thcosophlcul trans
position of souls, Miss Fannlo Rice and
n company of earnest comedians nt
tho Lyceum last evening tried hard to
entertain a laige audience; and by
dint of familiar expedients In horse
play and broad fat deal elTects, In
cluding ludlcious gesticulation, fi an
tic arm swinging nnd vaudeville puns,
to Borne extent succeeded. But th
vehicle of this humorous work wns
unmlstnKably Inadequate. Miss Rico
Is deserving of a better play.
The Secret Enemy.
The Elroy Stock company will pro
sent "The Secret Enemy" nt tho Ly
ceum tonight. This afternoon "Turned
Up" will be tho attraction.
At the Gaiety.
Tho "Little Egypt Hurlcsquo" com
pany began n three days teturn en
gagement nt tho Gaiety theater yes
teiday afternoon nnd gave an enter
tainment that formed a pleasing con
trast to the wretched performances
thut have recently been witnessed in
the house. Aside from tho only "Little
Rgypt," who needs no Introduction, the
company contains some excellent spe
cialty artists. In the foremost rank
may be mentioned Eddie Leonard,
whose renditions of the "Messenger
Boy" and "Rag-tlmo Cake Walk" can
scarcely be equalled on the vaudeville
stage.
Kittle Lenton sang us sweetly ns
ever and the "Little Ginger Glr's,"
who aro becoming rather beefy In ap
pearance, have lost none of their abil
ity to charm the occupants of the front
low. Joe Love, Glen Emery and Bi
Me Mnilow woio successful In sustain
ing much of the humor thiough :.
performance and were well received.
The bpectators were enthusiastic dur
ing tho meritoilous turns and Indul
gent In passing without hostile demon
stration many of the nntl-dlluvlan
Jokes nnd hoiso-power hits that were
Introduced. "Little Egypt" will b
heen at tho Gaiety for the balance of
the week, afternoon and evening.
Bluo Jeans.
"Blue Jeans," Joseph Aithur's fam
ous comedy drama of Indiana country
life, manners and customs, will be sen
nt the Lyceum on Saluiday afternoon
and evening. It Is a strikingly realis
tic picture of the section ,f the coun
tiy whore the story is laid, and no
small portion of Its grent success 13
duo to Its naturalness.
There Is no sttalnlng for effect, even
in its most thrilling scenes; nnd that
makes the storv and its stirring Inci
dents nil the moie effective.
The Gunner's Mate.
The .attraction at the Lyceum Jan
uary 1 and 2 will be Manager Augus
tus Pltou's massive and magnificent
production, "The Gunnel's Mate," a
naval drama, dealing with the new
American r.avy. It Is not a war play.
There Is no -conflict. Theio are no
scenes of battle, no shots are tired. It
is a play of human interest, with nn
abundance of good, clean comedy to
relieve the tension of Its dramatic story
a story full of episodes,, that will ap
peal to every heart. The play depicts
with absolute coneetness the life of
our gallant sailor on land and at sea
