the offenders are concerned. The tax

road company the works being done in
substantial manner.
. The streets and crosswalks are in
abominable condition. With the ex-
ception of. one or two crosswalke, where
adjacent owners have swept them off.the
crossings are a diegrace to the city. In
muddy weather there may be some ex
cuse for the streets to be in the condi
tion they are but some, one whosever
duty it is should see that the cross
walks are kept clean. A great many
complaints regarding this matter are
heard every day. We hope tomorrow to
notice an improvement.
A Klgnt Off."
Tomorrow evening occurs the perform
ance of the Home Dramatic Club at the
Baldwin theatre. The play, which will
be produced, is the popular comedy "A
Night Off." . The piece is an extremely
accusing one, consisting of a clever plot,
bright dialogue and amusing situations.
The scene is laid in England and the
piece tells of the trials, tribulations and
troubles of a well meaning but unfortun
ate professor who commits tbo unpardon
able act of writing a Roman tragedy,
which is produced by a travelling com
pany of barn stormers, to the great dis
comfiture of the professor, and almost
causes annihilation of family relations.
Everything turns out all right at last,
however, for everybody except the pro
fessor, whose pride in his ability as a
playwrightreceives a crushing blow. The
Home Dramatic Company has been hard
at work practicing for some time, and
the play will undoubtedly be satisfac
torily produced. The cast is as follows :
Justinian Babbit K. H. Lonsdale
( Professor of History in uomDton university.)

good thougnte, and was delivered im

in an artistic manner that showed to
good advantage the lady s musical ac
complisbment8. Prof. Gavin favored
the andience with a well-rendered reef
tation, after rrhich Mr. H. M. Esping
