AMUSEMENTS.

OllTer Byron,

Mr. Byron, supported by a fair company, appeared last night in one of his characteristic plays. He usually draws better houses than on this occasion. "The Inside Track" is quite a sensational ar* it of the standard materials, such ascle lovel ing t'other on the hero plethoric and explosive old father Cockney Tillian and wife, tools of bold, bad man robberies, police, flames, clubs and silver-mounted pistois. Mr. Byron. makes a pleasant character of Harry Denbijh Mias Leigh is a pretty and agreeable heroine Kate Byron's Irish boy is the best character in the play and company it is very clever. Others do fairly well and the piece runs along with life and increasing interest. The scene in the cellar, given by Mr. an4 Mm. Byron is a pretty incident in the play and excellently given. Its fury climax is a very striking, thrilling event, and the entire act is good melodrama. The audience thoroughly appreciated the performance, applauded with gusts ana called out die leaders several times.

The company last night acknowledged an excuse' for an actor in billing Mr. X. Sense as Bob Taylor.

MissKate Byron (Mrs. Oliver Byron) is quite accomplished, speaking several languages and can remodel plays to their improvement. "ZoZo."

This great spectacular drama will be presented at Narlor's Opera House Wednesday and Thursday evenings. "Zo Zo" is a wonderfully blftght, clean and attractive show piece. It has no ballet, variety specialties or any objectionable features of any sort. It will more than please the ladies and children with its bewildering transformations, astonishing illusions and unparalleled grandeur. The Chicago Tribune says: This attraction opened last evening before a large audience. It is a'purely a spectacular entertainment, in which gorgeous scenery and pretty women are the striking features. Considerable fun is furnished by George H. Adams the well-known comedian and pantomimist. The other people are amusing in their way. It is a thoroughly clean spectacular, offering nothing to offend the taste of the most of respectable of audiences. The audience last night appeared to enjoy the performance. The music, costumes and paraphernalia are especially beautiful while the scenery has never been excelled here.

The Bandit King with James Walljck and company and the wonderful acting horses Roan Charger and Bay Raider appear at Naylor's Opera house Saturday January 9.

A judgment against the first bondsmen of $10,138.89 has long since been affirmed by the Supreme court of the state.

These two judgments combined may be placed as the total of the original defalcation, or $21,638.89.

A Bad Case.

I have been a great sufferer from catarrh of the head and throat, for fifteen years. My lungs became affected, have tried everything advertised and all doctors who pretended to cure the disease without receiving a particle of benefit. I despaired of ever being cured. On the 24th of December I applied to Dr, Albert Willi ims, the head, throat and lung specialist of this city. His first treatment afforded me more relief than all the doctoring I have ever done.

It is now ten days since I began treatment. I now feel as Well as ever I did in my life. I can recommend the doctor as being an able physician to all those who are suffering from head, throat and lung troubles. G. D. FOSTER, 219 Sheets street, Terre Haute, Ind.

P. S.—It is not the custom for the doctor to give testimonials from persons living thousands of miles away, but from persons residing in your own city, well known by all.

Will White, the Caterer, Snccumbs to the Effect of Business Depression. The many friends of Mr. Will White, the popular Main street caterer, were astonished yesterday to learn that he had made an assignment for the benefit of his creditors.

Already claims have been filed against Mr. White amounting to $3,003.79, and the liabilities will approach $5,500.

A Feeling: That the Mill-Owners Will Sign the Twanty-One Cent ScaleThe feeder-nailers who have been employed claim to have a written contract with the company for continuous employment, and that the company nnder the terms cannot discharge them.

The prevailing opinion among the mill operatives is that the shutting down oi the mill was preliminary to the signing of the 21-cent card bv the company, which, it is expected, will follow the approaching meeting of the Western Nail association. Those feeders who have been at work, it is said, will be allowed to resume work if the 21-cent card is signed by the association.

Said an old employe of the mill: "I'll venture the assertion that within a period of ten days the mill will be running in all the departments at the scale demanded by the nailers. There is one thing very certain, the company have large out-standing orders for early spring delivery—one order of forty car-loads alone from a St Louis house—and if they expect to fill these orders they will have to resume—and that very soon."
