HUMBUG THEATRE GOERS. Howard Hunt Stock Company Proves To Be a "Frost" Richmond theatre goers will patronize a good repertoire company, but those of the caliber of the Howard Hunt Stock company which opened at the Gennett theatre last night never. The company is decidedly the poorest aggregation of its kind ever appearing in Richmond without an exception. Last night a full house greeted the organization, If it can properly be termed an organization, but before the curtain had been run down on the first
well, producing a play modern in every sense of the word, still retaining all the original Intensity and interest found in the book. "Jane Eyre" is booked at the Gennett theater Saturday matinee and night, Nov. 21. Vaudeville New Phillips.
It is a uniformly good bill at the New Phillips this week, presenting a
pleasant variety and many novel tea tures. The play, the whistler, the ven

eood.
"The Toy Detective," a plotless lit

JOHNSON STATEMENT
Abattoir Company Not Insolvent, Says Officer.
Fred C. Jurgensen, general manager
of the Richmond Abattoir company resents with fervor the allegations
made in the Wayne circuit court by
attorney Henry U. Johnson yesterday
to the effect the concern has been
having financial difficulties. Mr. Jur
gensen has written the Palladium in
regard to the matter as follows:
"As manager of the Richmond Ab
attoir company I want to say that this
statement of Mr. Johnson's is without
any foundation in fact and is wholly
untrue. The Richmond Abattoir com
tianv has not considered going into
the hands of a receiver under its present management; this company is not insolvent btu on the contrary Is abso

MANAGERS IN CONFERENCE.
Jeffersonville, Ind., Nov. 17. The
board of managers of the Indiana Re
formatory reacneu aere on me can oi Acting Superintendent M. M. Barnard to consider reconstruction plans following the fire of Sunday. Nearly 600 men have been thrown out of employment. All are in their cells. This is one of the most serious problems the management faces. It will be at least March 1 before any work can be done toward rebuilding the foundry, even with anticipated assistance from the
Legislature.

The production was a conglomera

with the constant prompting of the
actors from behind tne scenes, was
more thau any self respecting audience

general verdict passed upon the company and the play it presented last
night.
Mrs. Swisher, resident manager ot
the Gennett today handed out an ulti

was no better than the "feature" bill

His whistling especially in the two and three part music, was novel and entertaining. Les Salueres Alberty's, European

Here are some Buckeye opinions of
the music of the Ellery band which appears here this week at the coli

a unity that bands rarely achieve. It is as if each instrument were but a

THE NAMES OF STATES. Majority of Thm Were Handed Down From the Indians. Do you know why your state was so named? Do you know that the majority of the states of the Union were named after the Indiana? It is so. See the list: Ohio is Indian and means "beautiful;" Massachusetts, "about great hills;" Utah, "mountain home;" Texas, from the Indian word "teaches," which
means "friends." Kansas gets its name from the Indians, and the word means
"smoky waters." The word Wyoming comes from the Indian and means
"broad valleys;" Nebraska, "black wa ter;" Missouri, "muddy water;" Iowa
"across;" Wisconsin, "rushing waters;" Illinois, from "Illlni," which means
"tribe of men:" Kentucky, meaning "at
head of river;" Oregon, from Ware
gan, "beautiful water." Arizona means "uncertain," because of the desert land
where the Indians found game scarce; therefore a journey through that portion of the country was uncertain. New Mexico was named after Mexico proper, and the word comes from "Mexltl" of the ancient Aztecs and slgnlfles "god of war." The Indians call-great lakes "seas," and "seas" in Indian is "Michigan." Mississippi is named after the river which is so called by the red man because of its greatness in width and
length. The word means "father of waters." The two Dakotas were so named 8fter the Dakota Indians, which at one time embraced an immense tribe, ajl the branches of the Sioux. There are states which do not owe their names to the Indians. California Is named after an imaginary island of Spanish romance; Nevada means "snowy;" Colorado is so named because of the red granite and sandstone rocks which are everywhere in- the mountain regions. Florida means flow ers. FACTS ABOUT FLAGS.

The blaek flag is a sign of piracy. The yellow flag shows a vessel to be in quarantine or is the sign of a
