It is an Irresistibly comlo conception.

But later on you learn that after all
you hare been libeling the press agent.
Vou come to admit In sorrow and peni

your Impulsive temperament got the

as Antony. His sincerity Is Impressed
upon you terribly in the third scene of

At both performances lantern slide
pictures are shown between acts. The
Helllg showed views of the ruins of
Rom and Egypt and the haunts t
Antony and Cleopatra But this provis
ion of Mr. Hanford's, thoughtful as It
waa was far outdone by the moving
pictures of "Monte Crlsto" which Mr.
Allen held out as extra Inducement for
his patrons. Mr. Allen's pictures moved
and Mr. Hanford's were of the old regu
lation Sunday school benefit variety.
When will our managers learn that the
drama Is essentially the reproduction
of action T Mr. Allen had the better of
the argument.

Extra Chairs and Boon for tha Union
Dental parlors.
The past week has witnessed many
changes in the Union Dental Parlors,
made necessary by the increase of pat
ronage. Extra chairs have been added
and expert operators, of course. The
number of patients yesterday who
wished to be waited upon was certainly
unprecedented in tne nistory 01 tnis
big dental concern. Dr. Austin, the
head and front of these offices was
the recipient of many compliments upon
the popularity of the Union Dental Par
lors. "We have the largest offices
in the city,", he said, "and can by the
terms of our lease sdd more, and doubt
less It will not be very long before
such is the case, the way the patients
keep coming. If there is one thing
more than another, of which We take es
pecial care, it Is to turn out plate and
bridge work promptly. People don't
like to wait on these matters, and know
ing that, I propose to always have op
erators enough en hand to do the work
In a hurry. The Quality we guarantee."
The Union Dental Parlors occupy the
entire northwest corner or the second
floor at Morrison and First streets,
thus affording not only a central loca
tion but a splendid light so necessary
in an cental worn.
Hollaing permits representing over
160,000 in new residence construction
were Issued from Inspector Spencer's
office yesterday. With two exceptions,
the plsns filed with the Inspector pro
vide for-cottages to cost between $1,000
and $2,000. A. J. PUs was granted a

Joseph Paauet hss broken ground for
a two-story residence on East Twelfth,
between East Alder and East Washing

Recent sales of east side residence

A representative of The Journal was
shown today through the Penny Arcade
in the O. W P. waiting room by Mr.
Russell, one of the proprietors, and was
very much pleased and delighted by the
various songs, pictures, and novelties

and entertaining Bmusfmmt place and
one may feel assured that women and
children may find here a very clean and
aafe form of amusement, notwithstand
ing the recent adverse criticism. There a
Ait me latest ana popular songs with
illustrations for young and old. and In
addition many, interesting novelties that
words tan not describe and only a visit
to the place can show their full merit.
Altogether there are 108 machines and
Mr. Russell states that it represents an
Investment of $16,000. and no exoense
has been spared to put up one of the
most unique and entertaining amuse
ment places In the city. Adv.

HE young folks wander away from the home circle
II in search of music and entertainment. It is so easy
to entertain them at home, better than they can be
entertained anywhere else, and it is such innocent
amusement, by means of an Edison Phonograph, which
furnishes music for dancing
gives all the new popular songs of the theatre and
selections from the grand operas and concerts, and
reproduces band music, the old ballads and love songs
so perfectly that it is hard to believe that it is not the
real music or voice to which they are listening. Parents
owe it to their children to investigate the merits of the
Edison Phonograph, and not confound it with any other
kind' of talking machine they may have heard.
Go to your nearest dealer and hear the new Edison
model with the big horn, or write today for a catalogue 1
describing it.
TO BUSINESS MEN : With an Edison Busi
ness Phonograph, you dictate your fetters as
opportunity affords ; talk as rapidly or as slowly
as you please and without interruption.

the Jury was received In the absence of
the defendants and their attorneys.
This point was passed on when the mo
tion for new trial was argued, and the
objection whs again overruled.
Then W. K. McOarry moved an arrest
of Judgment on the ground that no
venue had been proved as laid in the
information. This was likewise de

tne aerenaants to stand, asking If they

' uation. Radding answered in almost
inaudible tone that he left that to his
attorney, and Mrs. Waymlre, still more
inaudibly, said she had nothing to say.
Mrs. Waymire Waa Influenced.
Judge Oantenbeln first read the stat
ute under which the defendants were
convioted, which closed by Imposing a
penalty of from one io six months Im
prisonment, or by .fine of from S0
to 1260.

ony, but in this state It Is not. and the
fienalty la comparatively mild. I be
leve that reasonable men will hardly
differ In the opinion that the maximum
penalty of the law Is deserved, so far
as the defendant Radding Is concerned.
It Is the Judgment of the court that
he ' should be confined in the County
Jail for the term of six months.
"As to the defendant Waymire, writ
ers on female criminology say that
when women commit crime It Is gener
ally due to the influences of others, to
hatred or to nassion. ' I think In this
case Mrs. Waymire was influenced by
others to commit this offense. It -was
not due to hatred or passion, nor was
it apparently due to greed.
Plenty of Cash la Bight.
"A woman ia punished much more se
verely by detection than a man. At the
same time a woman who will allow her
self to be influenced to commit an of
fense of this character should be se
verely punished. In my view, Mfs.
Waymire waa not the originator of the
plot, and she has been more severely
Funlshed by detection than Radding.
t ts the Judgment of the court -that she
serve four months In the county Jail
and that both the defendants be re
Quired to pay-the costs." j ;
i Then cam the allowance of the atay
of execution for SO days. District At
torney Manning and Dan J. Malarkey
suggested that the defendants be' re
manded ' to the custody of the sheriff
until the new bonds were furnished,
but Attorney, Fouts said he' would go
with the sheriff at once and attend to
the transfer of the bonds, and the court
said that as this was a matter of only
a few minutes the defendants might re
main In the courtroom until the papers
were prepared.
' Several hundred dollars In costs have
already accrued, and if the supreme
court upholds the verdict of the Jury
the defendants will need about all the
money deposited for bonds to pay the
costs onargea against tnem, to say noth
ing of the fees of their three attor
neys. This apparently does not worry
them, for the "man behind," whoever
be may be, Is still liberal with the
cash.'
