Hoyt’o theatre was crowded last night

by an appreciative audience, to see Miss
Minnie [router's company‘s presentation
of “Annette, the Dancing Girl." Un-
doubtedly general interest was aroused
in this presentation because the play is
considered here one of Ullie Aksratrom's
beet.and there was a curiosity to see
how the two ladies compared in similar
roles. Bliss Lester certainly lost nothing
in the comparison, but was most outline
ieeticalry applauded at every appearance.
Her dancing was very pretty.st her
interpretation of thocbaracter ct “An-
nette," a charming one. Her support
was excellent throughout. Tbeopecial-
alties in thesecondsct were received
with loud applause. The musical se-
lections by the orchestra deserve special
mention, especially that of thedescrip-
tivs piece "A Day at the Rscss."tn
which the usual scents attending such a
performance, were ably described by
Ir. Mitchell. Ii. Dealer’s engagement

to its length. the curtain will rue
promptly at 8 o’clock. Miss Lester has
made herself very popular here, and dr.
servedly on. Her repertoire has cut-
braced plays of a popular character.
They have been clean and pleasing. She
has fully sustained every character»-
sumed, and by her personal charms and
dramatic ability won the admiration and
respect of the thousands who have had
the pleasure of witnessing her perform-
shoes.

city last evening at the Grand Opera
House. The audience was a large one
and was quick to respond to the many
strikiagooenes sudlncidents which the
play presented. The plot is oscidsily
intricate in construction and the story is
one of misunderstanding which separates
husband and wife,sud the clariug up

Wesreliviognoderthesbaduw of this
danger. While we quietly s

the deep, refreshing nmbsrs of mid-
night, you will llnd marching from the
police station a bond of metro
whose distinct mission is largely to
protect you against that otbc
bsud which the saloons vomit forth
at the last momt. An ullcsr of,"
twenty years’ experience was quoted as
aayingthst,sofarssoue can see now,
ifitwersnotfor this business one po-
liceman would answer where ten are
and required. ‘

'i be businem is not only dangerous. it

is delicate and dangerous. To deal with
minors and paupers, clamoring for that ‘ ’
which the law denies them, may well to-
quire tact. but to deal with drunkards
and drunken men nquirseexpert know-
ledge. The buiiness is an extremely pro.
fitsble one, and this is one of theincidcu-
tnidangers. Thespesker gave estimates
of the exist of whisky and the results of
analyses of a number of specimens
bought at didersnt places. He found
the mean of all the specimens looted to
be 17 9 per cent. below proof, reducing
the cost to the dealer to $1.09 a gallon on
the average, by the introduction of
water. The profits by glaso. pint find
gall m were; has shown to be large. The

average broil: “33‘ common saloon is

This great profit. hat pirslleled is
any other branch of birsiuess requiring
such small capital, is one of the great
dangers of the business. What into its
done with it? Considering flrot the
proposition to prohibit the manufacture
and sale of liquor and the system of no.
license, the speaker showed from statis-
tics the greater number of stream in
various cities where liquor has been
legally sold. over times when its sale
has been prohibited. Eli b license and
one saloon to each l,000.of population
was next considered, rh advantage of
this being the reduction of temptation.
This plan would probably lead to addi-
tional adulterations, and the methods t
and kinds of sdultprution were consider» D
ed at length.
Profesmr llcCook said the sum total
of his convictions was that if you care
chiefly for a fair revenue from the busi-
ness and are indill rent on to statistics
of crivm. insanity and the like, not
protect license system will do well
enough If you are satisfied with about
the same amount of revenue and want
to hlmph'y somewhat and perhaps re-
duce lo a measure the work of your
police and " your eleernoeynsry institu-
tions,sdupt high license. But neither
of thrmfisyslems will go directly to the
