The great scene of the piece and which has created a sensation, is the fourth scene in the second act, entitled "Beauty's Awakening, " a Dream of the Year," in which the ballet of the 'Four Seasons" are presented.

Scene from 'The Beauty and
Scene from "The Black Crook"
"Black Crook" company to be seen at the Gennett, next Monday night is or rather was a dog fancier until a few days ago. It came about in ths way. He fell in love with and purchased a likely looking bull pup some weeks aco. which he set about to teach cute things. Among these was the act of sitting up and speaking at his master's command. The dog accompanied his master to and from the theatre, but not being old enough to appreciate talent he usually spent his time at the theatre asleep in Mr. Mack's dressing room. One evening, however, he became restless and during the third act wandered Into the wings. All went well until the heavy part of the scene came where the hero, heroine and villain get into a wordy war, the villian making some 'sassy" remarks about the leading lady who Is commanded by the hero to resent them. Mr. Mack's lines go something like this: "I command you to speak, speak." when Mr. bull dog, who was watching the action of the play, heard the word "speak" coming from his master, he thought it was his cue, and at once dashed on to the stage, assumed a sitting posture and proceeded to bark long and lour. There was a pause, then a roar of laughter from the audience and a wild dash by Mr. Mack and the dog. After a few minutes matters quieted down and the play proceeded. Since then, however, Mr. Bull Dog spends his evenings on the end of a strong chain attached to his master's biggest trunk. "Denver Express" Gennett. "The Denver Express" is said to be one of the few sensational comedy dramas that pleases the ladies and children as well as the gallery gods, because, though it is boisterous in merriment, yet it is refined in sensation, pure in tone and spontaneous in action. There is plenty of the comedy element in the piece, and the plot contains a beautiful love story. Many realistic mechanical effects are used, including an engine and train of cars. "Denver Express" will be seen at the Gennett next Wednesday night, Thursday afternoon and Thursday night. "Nobody's Claim." Gennett. From the time she shoots down the W. U. Telegraph wire to stop the sending of a message and save a friend, till we find her alone and nearly dead across her father's grave in a blinding snow storm in a mountain pnss, the latter when she appears at the out-law headquarters just in time to save Ward Devereaux from the angry flames and later when on the black charger, she with an American flag heads the U. S. cavalry in a successful battle with the outlaws, little Madge, the waif of the hills and heroine of "Nobody's Claim" finds a soft spot in our affections and makes a lasting impression on us. She will be at the Gennett. on next Thursday night. It's a good, old world after all, If you have no friends or money, In the river you can fall; Marriages are quite common and, More people there will be. Provided you take Rocky Mountain Tea. A. G.

THEY HAVE HONEYCOMBED THE FLOORS IN THE HOOF STORAGE HOUSES AND EATEN INSULATION OFF WIRES.
IPublishers Press.j Chicago, jan. IS. Electrical engineers and fire underwriters interested in' the Union stockyards are alarmed over the advent of unidentified larvae swarming certain sections of the packing plants and feeding on lead pipe insulation of electric wires. These brown, hairy little wigglers, each five-eights of an inch long, move through "hoof" houses at the yards, gnaw irregular patches of lead, often cutting through the cloth and rubber insulation and short circuiting the electric current. Holes an inch Ions and half an inch wide have been cut through one-tenth inch thicuness oi" lead pipe. "The lead pipe cinch" bug Is the designation given the creature by Director Fred -J. V. Skiff of the Field Columbian museum, in whose entomological laboratory this little lead eater is under observation. It is in the "hoof" house at the yards that the creature appeared in millions. These houses are for the storage of hoofs under process toward glue manufacture. In these houses the floors are of wood three or four inches thick, yet this hairy worm has honeycombed them in its search for lead pipe. So great have been the ravages of these larvae upon the lead insulation in the hoof houses that new installations of electric wires are being conducted in gas pipe protections. Some of the floors of the houses are so bored and weakened that cement will have to take the place of the wood. FAILS TO SEE THE POPE English Editor Unabl6 to Get inxerview with the Pontiff at -Rome.

Been Spent Perfecting Liquozone. Will
Have Even when Liquozone was new the results were astounding. It seemed almost incredible that anything could do, in difficult cases, what this product did. But five years of experience, with millions of users, have done a greet deal to perfect it. The product has been studied by many physicians and chemists, including some of tne world's highest authorities. As a re suit, better standards have been evol ved and adopted.. Millions know from experience what the old product Jid. Will you learn now the power of the new? What Liquozone Is. Liquozone is a tomc-germicide, the virtues of which are derived solely from oxide gases. No alcohol, no ucrcotic, nothing but gas enters into it. The process of making requires la-g? apparatus, and consumes 14 days' time. Tne object is to so combine the gases with a liquid as to carry their virtues into the system. The result is a germicide so certain that we publish with every bottle an offer of $ 1,000 for a disease germ that Liquozone cannot kill. It destroys them because germs are of vegetable origin. But to the body Liquozone is exhilirating, vitalizing, purifying. That is its main distinction. Com mon germicides are poisons when takea internally. They axe impossible,

JAPS PRESENT TEST CASES MANDAMUS WRIT IS FILED Action Is Brought to compef Their Admission to Public Schools from Which. They Have Been Excluded by School Board. Publishers Press.! Washington, Jan. 18. The TTnTted States began two suits In San Francisco for the purpose of enforcing provisions of the treaty with Japan giving to Japanese equal school advantages. One of the actions is brought In the supreme court of the state of California in the name of a Japanese child for the purpose of obtaining a writ of mandamus to compel his admission to one of the public schools from which he is excluded by the action of the boajd of education. The proceeding in the second suit is a bill In equity filed by the United States in the federal circuit court in which members of the board of education, the superintendent of schools, and all of 1he principals of the various primary and grammar schools of San Francisco are made defendants. for they destroy the tissues as well as the germs. That is why medicine proves so helpless in dealing with germ diseases. Liquozone, on the contrary, acts' as a remarkable tonic. We Paid $100,000. For the rights to Liquizone, after thousands of tests had been made with it, after its power had been demonstrated for more than two years in the most difficult germ diseases. Conditions which had resisted medicine for years yielded at once to it. and diseases considered incurable were cured. That was five years ago. Since then millions of people in every part of the world have shared in the benefits of this invention. Nearly every ham let, every neighborhood, has living examples of its power. Now we ask you to let it do for you what it did for them.. Germ Diseases. Most of our sickness has. in lit 9 years, been traced to germ attacks. Some germs as in skin troubles directly attack the tissues. Some create toxins, causing such troubles as Rheumatism, Blood Poison, Kidney Disease and nerve weakness. Some destroy vital organs, as in Consumption., Some like the germs of Catarrh create inflammation; some cause indigestion. In one of these ways, nearly every serious aliment is a germ result.
