NEW THEATRE OrEXS. Michigan City, Dec. 5. The new Grand opera house opened last evening under the most favorable auspices. A large and fashionable audience greeted the initial performance, which was given by the Umpire company with

Fred W. Mace In the title role. Never before had society turned out in such numbers to a theatrical performance.

The leading fc male role in "Hooligan in New York" is a blind girl who earns a living selling flowers In the streets of the great city. A suppose! friend of her fathers has possession of property that rightfully belongs to her, and fearing that she may eventually secure it, he plots to murder her and thu3 make himself secure. She is rescued by Hooligan and the villain is finally brought to justice. The char acter is a sympathetic one, and Miss Maude Burnham who will be seen in it at tho Towle opera house. Sunday, Dee. 9. is s.iM to V.t. tH.. Tt i.-? a wculiar fact that during the six years j Miss Burnham has been in the the atrical profession, she has played no ess than six blind girls, in "The Two Orphans," "Brother for Brother," "Under the City Lamps," "The Minister's Daughters," "Young Mrs. Winthrop," and "Hooligan in New York." She regards her present role as the best of them all and refused a similar part in a new production which promises to remain the entire season on Broadway, to continue with "Hooli gan In New York." FEDERAL TILE COMPANY'S ENTIRE OUTPUT FOR GARY. Concern Soon to Jlove to Hiiituiiontl Will Come Solely for Purpose of Suppljing Steel Plant With Hoofing Material. The Federal Tile company, which occupy part of the old G. H. Hammond plant here in the near future, is coming with tho intention of supplying the tile that is to be used in covering tl"uGary mills and other structures that are going up there. The product of the company will not be the ordinary burnt tile, but instead will be made of concrete, which is said to be far superior to the burnt tile, and Is also much cheaper. The entire output for several years will go direct to Gary, where undoubtedly the demand will be larger than the output. The buildings that are to be covered will stand on an area of nearly two miles and the contract that the Federal Tile company ha3 undertaken is probably one of the largest of its kind ever undertaken by any concern.

Too Low autl Too High. "Do employers hire men and thea pay them what they thick them worth or do they fix salaries and then get such men as they can to fit them?" asked a young man who had been going through the experience of changing his work. "I won't try to answer my question, but I will tell you a story. I called upon a manager to talk with him about a place of responsibility which I knew he had to offer. He seemed taken with me and I think had his mind made up to employ me. Finally he asked me how much salary I would expect. " 'I should say about 150 a month,'

1 answered Immediately his face fell. 'I'm sor ry.' he said, 'but I expect to pay $2,500 a year, and I want a $2,500 man. Good morning.' "From there I went to inquire about another place. Apraln I seemed to suit and we pot to the question of wages. I knew the firm was not in the habit of spending much money. If I was to get the position I must bid low, and so I suggested $125 a month. " 'I'm sorry.' was the reply, 'but we can't pay more than $100. I know you're worth more and tho work Is worth more, but we haven't got the money to spend, that's all. Good morning.' " New York Post. The Study of Medicine. The study of medicine is the study f man and of his relations to his en vironment. It is the broadest and most useful of all the professions. A skillful physician can find opportunity for the employment of his highest skill in a hovel as wtdl as in a palace. lie is alike welcomed by the king and by the peasant. The exactions of the physician's calling are more severe than those of any other profession. He must be content to hold all his personal plans for pleasure, pront or recreation subject to the exigencies of many oth er lives as well as of his own. so that his life must be less regular than that of other men. lie belongs to the social fire department. lie must often Imperil his health, even his life, to save the health and lives of others. lie must be content with a short life. But all these disadvantages are induce ments to the man who desires to live up to the highest and noblest ideals. From "Starting In Life," by N. C. Fowler, Jr. The Finest English Odea. Araoug the many fine odes In the English language Macaulay has char acterized Dryden's "Alexander's Feast" as the noblest, and Dr. Richard Gfixnett agreed with him in thinking it the finest ode we have. The full title Is "Alexander's Feast; or, The Power of Music an Ode For St Cecilia's Day." Spenser's "Eplthalaniium," MI'ton's "Ode on the Nativity," Keats' odes "To a Nightingale" and "On n Grecian Urn" and Shelley's "To & Skylark" are all notable Instances of this class of poem, and to these must be added, though, their form Is irregular, Wordsworth's magnificent "Intimations of Immortality" and Tennyson's "Ode on the Death of the Duke of Wellington." Pruning Tomatoes. Men and women who grow a few fine tomatoes in their own gardens for their own use have long practiced more or less pruning of the Tines. Pruning is also practiced sj-stematical-ly when tomatoes are grown In hothouses. As a rule, the field culture of tomatoes is not sufficiently remunerative to make pruning profitable. Professor Munson found that pruning the plants after a part of the fruit had set increased the yield more than one-third. This was under conditions of field culture. It is possible that where the market Is good an Increase of one-third In the crop would pay for the work of pruning. Country Gentleman. Tlielr Mecca. "But, dear," said the caller, "I don't see why you should care to change the name of your charming little country place. Idlewhile is so romantic. It seems to signify dreamy idleness." "That's just the trouble," replied the housewife. "It was too suggestive." "In what way?" "Why, It attracted all the tramps In the county." Chicago News. False Economy. There Is a vast difference between the economy which administers wisely and that niggardly economy which saves for the sake of saving and spends a dime's worth of time to save a penny. I have never known a man who overestimated the Importance of saving pennies to do things which belong to large minds. Success Magazine. Worlciagr Hard. The little boy's father had come home from his office early and was j lying down for a nap before dinner, j The little lad's mother sent him upstairs to see if his father was asleep. He returned with this answer: "Yes, mamma, papa Is all asleep but hl3 nose." Discouraging. "You look discouraged." "I am. Another college has Just conferred the degree of LL. D. on my Uncle Benjamin. There isn't likely to be much left for me when he dies." Chicago Ilecord-Herald. A Mean Dig. Miss Tasse I have had many chances to marry. Only a short time ago a pert - man told me of his love.
