T MONDAY, MARCH 27, 1899. GOOD EVENING. Danbury is in the throes of a city election “to-day. The Easter bonnet is in danger of colliding witha snow storm. ' Weather prophets predict that three more snow storms 21.1 e yet due. The Iunning of the red line to Roton Point this summer is in serious doubt. Sunday’s snow storm had a depressing. effect on those wheelmen who expected .to make a century run on that day. These yellow correspondents who ran up against Judge Wheeler in the Guil- ford case will probably profit by their esson. , ' A snowstorm on Palm Sunday is not often witnessed, but then the ground hog has been acting strangely this year. Manager Bunnell’s specull train from Bridgeport on the night of the .pro- duetion of “Jack and the Beanstalk” should be well patronized. The contest for the Rambler wheel is getting exmting and the-leaders ap- pear to be watching each Oi.hel"S vote with an eagle eye. The people of the United States con- sume about four million bottles of pick- les every week. No wonder there is so much sourness in the world. It has been noticed that trolley cars having brushes affixed with which to clean theirails are foll‘Owed by clouds of dust, while those without brushes make little if any dust. The New York yellows sent out ' a special edition last evening given what purported to._ be an account of a great Sunday battle in Manila. A compari- son with the cable in yesterday morna ing’s Sun found it to be a rehash of the Sun’s news of Saturday’s battle. He Fooled The Surgeons. All doctors told Renick Hamilton, of West Jefferson, 0., after suffering 18 months f1 om Rectal Fistula, he would die unless a costly Opelation was per- formed; but he cured himself with five boxesBucklen’ sArnica Salve the surest Pile cure on Earth, and the best Salve in the World 25 cents a box.

AMUSEMENTS. ”Under The Red Robe.” _ “Under the Red Robe’.’ the greatest romantic success the Empire Theatre, New York, has ever produced and which ran at that famous play house for an entire season, comes to Hoyt’s Theatre on April 4th under the aus- pices of Putnam Hose company with all the original scenery and beautiful cos- tumes.

A return engagement of that highly amusing comedy drama, "Side Track- ed,” will be seen for one 'night at Hoyt’s Theatre on Saturday evening April 1, and judging from the splendid reception the piece and company pre- senting it are receiving from press and public throughout the country, it should prove a strong drawing card here. The company is headed by that clever young comedian E. El. O’Connor. 4 .1_ ‘vv . CAKE WALKERS. A Place in Chicago \VlIere Good Ones Are Turned Out Every Day. It may not be'generally. known that Chicago has a factory for the pro~ duction of cake walkers, says the Chi- cago Chronicle. No machinery is used, the output being the result rather of circumstances. In one of the State: street restaurants, which. is nearly halii a block deep and which boasts the longest lunch counters in the city, about 50 colored men are employed as waiters, and they all wear White uni— from pies and the slop—over from liquids. About 2:30 o’clock each after— noon the men take their lunch. They all form in line in the rear of the res- tam-ant [and march in single file down. to the front Of.- the room around the principal counter, countermarclr down the other side and sit at a counter pro~ vided for them. The feature of the most of the men practice, and it is no unusual thing for those whom they pass to overhear such remarks as: “Get dat cake walk move right.” “Say, man, you’d never win no cake with that walk on you.” “If I \\ as a gal and you walked with me like that I sure would pull a razor on you ” etc. Some of the men are said to be the most expert cake walkers' 1n the city . -————<o.o>—-———— A Narrow Escape.
