Three Grand Tours to Honolulu. Honolulu, Hawaiian IslaBds, about whicb so much has been written, bas beeu aptly termed the "Paradise of the Pacific." and the title is well deserved, for aside from its magnificent scenery its wonderful volcano, Kilaua, and its interesting inhabitants, its climate is unrivaled, and offers a most delightful change to the residence of the eastern and middle states who desire to escape the rigors of a northern winter.

The attractions and advantages of these beautiful islands are brought within easy reach by the series of excursions which have been inaugurated by the North Western Line, which leaves Chicago at 6 p. m., January 15, February 10 and March 5, reaching San Francisco on the evening of the tMra day after departure from Chicago. Steamers of the Oceanic S. S. Company leave San Francisco January 21, February 15 and March lOi and it will be observed, therefore, that those who join these excursions will be afforded ample time to view the many attractions of the principal city of the Pacific coast and its beautiful surroundings.

Excursion tickets, good for nine months will be sold at rate of $225 for the round trip from Chicago to Honolulu and return and this price includes state room and meals on steamers in both directions.

The entire trip from Chicaga to Honolulu is made in only nine days, and these excursions, which are strictly first class in all respects, offer an exceptionally favorable opportunity for visiting these beautiful islands at very reasonable expense.

Detailed information will be furnished upon application to W. B. Kniskera, General Passenger and Ticket Agent Chicago & North Western R'y, Chicago,

FOURTH SEASON

The Uproariously FunnyComedy

Sfomws PimioiisRm.

Everything new and up to-date this season. A Complete Production. Grand array of .Novelties. The best specialties on the American Stage. "Side Tracked" never before equalled with scenery. We positively carry all scenery used for this production. Universally pronounced the greatest laughing success ever achieved.

Greenfield is noted far and wide for the enterpri-e and success of her business men. When compared with other cities of the same size in the State, Greenfield business men would easily rank as leadys. They are thorough and systematic in their preparation and up-to-date in every particular in caring for the wants of their patrons. In this connection we desire to say a few words concerning the firm of C. W. Morrison & Son, funeral directors. This firm established itself in Greenfield fiveyears ago, and from that day until the present, the firm aas met with unequaled success and has had an enormous share of the patronage in their line. That this work has given satisfaction is attested by the fact that their business has increased right along In knowledge and equipment C. W. Morrison & Son are thoroughly prepared to care for the dead in the most scientific and careful manner. They are experts in embalming and carry caskets of all kinds and grades, from the cheap wooden ones modestly trimmed, to the most expensive metalic ones trimmed elaborately and ornamented with gold and silver. In his care of the dead, however, Mr Morrison is juft as careful, tender and sympathetic in looking after the little darling of some poor family as he is when in charge of the costliest funeral in the county. The firm does business both here and at Morristown, and frequently Oak S. Morrison is called here to assist his father, as at many times they have four or five funerals oa hands at the same time. Mr. Morrison is especially successful in carrying a funeral on properly so that the already sorro wing family may feel that their dead were cared for in the best possible manner.

"Side Tracked,

Among the many features to be seen in "Side Tracked," Jule Walters' big comedy production is the tramp's ride to the station on an improved bicycle. This is a positive novelty, new to the stage, and the ride on the big engine is more laughable than ever. Special scenery is used in the production, and includes the realistic railroad yards scene, a work of art. The musical work of Murphy & Moore is a strong feature, special settings being used for the act. Comedy in large quantities is furnished by the supporting company, which is composed of Strong dramatic and vaudeville talent. Opera House Saturday night, Jan. 18. Admission 35 and 50 cents.

Delegates to Cambridge City, Blue River—Frank Cook. Brandy wine—Latta Haines. Brown—George Phemester. Back Creek. Center—Ham L. Strickland E. J. Binford.
