They are nearly twenty-five, feet highiat the tips of their -highest leaves, with trunks from six to eight feet in height; and have been placed in the palm house. Another of the palms is a fan shape' leaved variety, native of the Fiji Islands.

Before opening, the young leaves are covered with a denie whitish wool, which contrasts strangely' with the green of the open leaves. The plant is twelve feet high, with a trunk about four feet high. Another and perhaps the. most striking palm of the collection is a Coc-cothrlnax argentea, native of Panama. It is eighteen feet high, and is one of the thatch palms.

Another of the palms is thirteen feet high, and Is classified as Rhopalostylis baueri, although it is sometimes called Areca baueri, and is a native of Norfolk Island. A date palm, one of the genus Phoenix, of large size, is included in the A plant which may prove more valuable than any of the others is a cycad, a family of slow growth, but this is a large specimen.

J. Among them are a curly palm eight feet high, native of Lord Island, and an unnamed Phoenix. The collection als includes two Cycas rev-oluta, better known, perhaps, under the name of sago palmy, which, it Is hoped, will prove to be male plants, as the gardem at present possesses only female varieties.

Mr. and Mrs. Belmour, Florence Freezers Ice sometimes deprives the slowtblnking auditor of his laugh. Few companies of artists like Kolb, Dill and Bernard, Maude "infield Blake and Harry Hermsen work so zealously together as they do at Fischer's, i And because they do work solxard and fast, they crowd material1 enough for 20 of the Inspired musical comedies now offered to' the public.

The "The Long, Long Green," by Maude Amber, the bull-fight song with the chorus, and "Dream Days of Seville." in Olive Vail takes the lead, 'are- among the really meritorious hits of the burlesque. They are far above the, average. Extensive preparations are already going on for the next double bill at this house. It will be a novelty, two travesties, "Under the Red Globe" and "The Three Musketeers." FAMOUS COMIC OPERA AGAIN AT TV0L1.

Caro Roma will be the widow, and Annie Myers the young prince, Bertha Davis sings Marie, and Cunningham is once more the colonel of the royal troops. Of course the elephant will be in evidence, and all the girls will wear the pretty costumes that provoked so much favorable comment at the last presentation "The Highwayman," is billed to follow. A LARGE CROWDS AT GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

The musical eccentricity "In Central Park," has created another sensatio'n at the Grand Opera house, which is packed at every performance. The scenery, costumes and effects are magnificent, and the entire production may be summed up as the most gorgeous of the kind ever witnessed here. Raymond and Caverly have made a great success with their new parodies and songs and dances. Cheridah Simpsoa sings delightfully, and makes a great hit with the drinking song Dry" written by Shafter-Hovard o. this city.

She is also nightly encored for the comic ditty "If Cabby Told Half That He Knew," and the trio, My Royal Rose," in which she has the assistance of Raymond and Caverly. Harold Crane contributes a coster song "Father Wants the Cradle Back" and a pretty ballad "There's Nobody Just Like You," which Is loudly encored. Budd Rose and Anna Wilks introduce a song and dance "You Haye Such Beautiful Dreams" and a Japanese serenade "Kijo." In this latter, they are assisted by the chorus, who give effect to the darkened stage by waving lighted punk sticks. Louise Moore sings "The Duchess of Central Park" and "The Girl You'd Like, to Know" pleasingly, and Herbert Sears humorously renders a song called "The Mat mmocks n3 Garden nose Chapman, Maurice Hyde, Sada "Willis, Mildred layman, George 13 os worth, Evelyn "Wynn, Molls Campion, G.

It was worse thai! death. My husband spent hundreds of dollars for physicians' prescriptions and treatment without avail.

Finally we 'moved to Bosque county, our present home, and one day I happened to see an advertisement of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy with a testimonial of a man who had been cured by It. The case was so similar to my own that I concluded to try the remedy. The result was wonderful. I could hardly realise that I waa well again, or believe It could be so after having suffered so long, but that -one bottle of medicine, costing but a few cents, cured me."

NOVELTY THEATER i 1 HAS LARGE AUDIENCES Everyone who attends the Novelty Theater these days all have a good word for the performance. This.exclusive teiv-cerrt vaudeville house "in Oakland deserves the iarge patronage It is enjoying, for there has never been such an array of artistsat a dune entertainment as Manager Luberskr Is giving his patrons. -All of the new faces that appear every week come direct from the East, playing seekarefuge In a studio which proves to be her own husband's. He hardly recognizes her- because of the great change, and she dramatically bids him paint the picture of the woman whose life he wrecked her faded face, her broken heart, her agony, suffering, despair. The villain slays his wife, and lays the crime at the door of his rival In a second intended matrihjonial affair.

Thence follows plot and counterplot, and the complications keep the interest at high tension. The play abounds in striking scenic effects, and among these is the startling "leap for life and love" from Brooklyn bridge "a hundred and fifty feet to the bottom," and the burning of the old wine cellar, in which' the hero and rival of the desperate criminal is imprisoned and unconscious. These is an exemplification of the truism, "Darkest before dawn," and then everything turns out as it should. With gorgeous scenery, magnificent effects and the best melodramatic company in America, "Kidnapped" should be an attraction of the first order and one that should fill the Central to the doors.

Hinds has pot been schooled in thej police society, and his introduction into the charmed circle of Lords and Ladies leads to many laughable complication. A brother officer, who Is an acknowledged leader in society, comes tot the rescue of the new lieutenant, who reciprocates the favor in a very unexpected and very dramatic way. An English race-track sharper succeeds in securing an -introduction into the upper class.

Hind3 recognizes' the sharper by certain peculiar marks. T.heh it is discovered that the brother officer before alluded to, is really in the trickster's clutches for -a large so-called "debt of honor." Some strong scenes ensue, but the new lieutenant is mastef of the situation, and society, as well las the army, finds him to be made of "proper stuff."
