Three Grand Tours to Honolulu, Honolulu, Hawaiian Islaads, about which BO much has been written, has been aptly termed the "Paradisa of the Pacific." and the title is well deserved, for aside from its magnificent scenery its wonderful volcano, Kilaua, and ifs interesting inhabitants, its climate is unrivaled, aud 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 thira day after departure from Chicago. Steamers of the Oceanic S. S. Company leave San Francisco January 21, February 15 and March 10, and it will be observed, therefore, that those who join these excursions will be afforded ampie time to view the many attractions of the principal city of the Pacific coast and its beautiful surroundings.

Excursion tickets, Rood 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 visitiog these beautiful islands at very reasonable expense.

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

Jule Walters' "SIDETRACKED.'

FOURTH SEASON

The Uproariously Funny Comedy

Ifomms Piu/iousRjdi.

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

pFThe tramp get side tracked at Jonesboro LThe novel bicycle ride,

I I The Trilby Cabinet, A. good strong show

Seats on sa[e at Crescent Pharmacy. 35 and 50 cents.

The building contains 60 windows in front and on State street. There are 15 arches, four of which are very large. The work is that known as broken course, pitched face ashler, with appropriate trimmings,constructed out of the lightest shade of Indiana oolitic limestone, taken from the Consolidated Stone Co. quarries1.

The work has been done in a very short time, considering the size of £the job. Work began on the cutting of stone, Sept. 25. The corner ttone was laid Oct. 10. Messrs. Wi son, Kennedy and Ballard, of Indianapolis, have had charge of the work. The contractors are firm believers in the 8 hour day, and they maintained the ancient teaching of Masonry in the construction of the Temple walls. The work has all been done under the supervision of the architect, Louis H. Gibson, of Indianapolis. The walls will not be cleaned and painted until spring. White mortar will be used and the joints laised, whice will add much to the beauty of the building.

The contractors, Messrs. Wilson and Kennedy, express themselves as much pleased with the courteous and gentlemanly manner in which they have been treated by the citizens of Greenfield.

The stone setting, which is a very difficult problem in this line of work, was done under the supervision of James Chodrick, of Kansas City.

"Side Tracked.

Among the many features to be seen in 'iSide 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.
