Don’t attempt to cross a track in front of a moving train; wait until it passes. Don't attempt to cross a track without first looking in both dkrections to see if a train is approachin. Don’t step off one track onto another to let a train pass without first seeing if a train is approaching on ' the other. Don’t stand upon or near tracks to conduct conversation or kill time; it is extremely dangerous, especially at stations, crossings and in yards. Don’t walk down a railroad track when going any place. If you must use the right of way, use the side of the track. Don’t permit dumb brutes to be on crossings or tracks if /ou can prevent it; it is both dangerous and cruel. Drive them off.

“A Royal Slave” Will Be Next Attraction at ElUs Theatre. Of the many plays produced during the past ten years, none has attracted more wide-spread attention or received warmer praise than Clarence Bennett’s great romantic drama of Old Mexico, “A Royal Slave,” which comes to the Ellis Theatre for one night, Wednesday, Oot. 30. Its freshness and real genuine worth commend it to every admirer of all that is good and wholesome in play-buildings. The fact that this sterling drama is still everywhere receiving high-water mark patronage is creditable alike to the author, Clarence Bennett, and to its manager, Geo. H. Bubb, to the excellent company presenting it and to the amusement loving public. “A Royal Slave” has entered upon its tenth year of astonishing success, playing everywhere to capacity audiences. There is only one reason for such phenominal patronage, and that is that the play strikes a responsive chord dn the hearts and minds of everybody, either of serious note or jollity, or of the sweeter Tone of love —so that each auditor finds something to his or her peculiar taste or fancy. The scenic investure this season is entirely new and the costuming as usual is elegant. The cast is what it always has been—'first class—and is headed again by those capable artists, Walter Hubbell and Irene Solomon.—Adv. Mr. and Mrs. William Washburn returned home today from a two weeks’ visit at Mishawaka, Ind., and St Joe, Glenboro and Buchanan, Mich. George F.
