"The Little Minister."
Manager Simon announces
"The Little Minister," a comedy
adapted from the famous novel
of that name by J. M. Barrie,
will be seen at the Grand opera
house on March 23. No play
produced in the last century has
been so well received or has made
such a phenomenal success as
has this one, as every one knows
who has read tho book, the
characters are all extremely
peculiar typ s. In making the
adaptation of his story Mr.
Barrie, it is said, has retained all
the strong points contained in
the story, and has given us a
comedy which is highly enter-
taining and very unique. It is
hardly necessary to speak here
of the success which this comedy
has obtained. Its marvelous run
in New York of 300 nights, and
to audiences at every perform-
ance which packed the theater
to the doors is a matter of his-
tory. Not only is this a phenom-
enal fact, but an absolutely true
one. Since the play left New
York the business has been of
the same order accorded it there.

A MEETING IS CALLED.
A Wise Woman. ,
Marie Lamour is a name that
has been heralded through the
theatrical columns of the daily
papers to such an unlimited ex-
tent of late that to those who
have not watched the career of
this gifted young artiste from its
inception, a brief resume of what
might be termed her professional
life will not prove uninteresting
reading. To begin with, Miss
Lamour began her career on the
stage in the humble capacity of
a chorus singer in one of Au-
gustin Daly's musical comedy
oompaqies, and to the splendid
early training reoeived in this
capacity, as well*as to a strict
adherence to the rigid discipline,
constantly enforced in Mr. Daly's
organizations, Miss Lamour
credits the foundation of what up
to this time has been a career of
brilliant success. It is to their
early training as members of the
chorus that Fanny Davenport,
Lillian Russell and many other
stars of like prominence owe
much of their later success.
After a brief period in the chorus
Miss Lamour was advanced to
the more important position of a
principal, and several years ex-
perience of this kind in Mr.
Daly's New York company made
her not only a splendid actress
but a most pronounced metro-
politan favorite. This season
Miss Lamour severed her con-
nection with the Daly company
to star in the title role of Wilfred
Clark's farcical oomedy, "A
Wise Woman" and her success
10 far is said to have been of the
most solid artistic and financial
kind. Miss Lamour will appear
in this city at the head of her
own oompany on Monday even-
ing March 10. The supporting
company is said to be very
atrong and* inoludes Frederic
Murphy, last season leading man
with Julia Marlowe.

Hay or Wilkin Asks the Citizens to Meet
With the City Council Monday.
As mayor of the city of Bren-
ham, I hereby request as many
of our citizens as can possibly
turnout to meet with the city
council on Monday, March 19,
1900, at 4 o'clook, to make the
necessary arrangements for en-
entertaining the Texas Press
Association at its forthcoming
meeting in this city, beginning
Thursday, April 12. I sincerely
trust that the attendance on this
meeting may be a representative
one, to the end that our expected
guests may be entertained in a
manner befitting such distin-
guished visitors and in keeping
with the hospitality that has ever
characterized our city.

Mayor of Brenham.
Threw "Horace" at a Chicken.
An arm}' correspondent in Luzon
tells of having entered a quaint old
house in Malaboon, where he beheld
a pcrfect havoc of rare old books and
beautiful paintings scattered about
the floor of the library. "There he
found a chaplain sitting in the midst
of the wreckage, who shouted.
"Look at these fine books and all
these magnificent drawings. Why,"
went on the chaplain, with indigna-
tion rising in his tones, "what do you
think! I came in here and a soldier
was throwing a book out of the win-
dow at a chicken. I picked it up
and reproved the man, but lie said
the old book was Tagal and nobody
could read it, so he might as well
use it for killing chickens., And
what do yon suppose the book was?"
The chaplain's voice was low and in-
tense with emotion. "Why, it was
the 'Odes of Horace.' Think of it!
And the soldier thought it was
Tagal!" .
Arm, Kay.
"Thy slender waist!" cried the
lover, in rapturous rhapsody.
Shyly she raised her eyes to his.
"You talk like a man who has
omething up his sleeve P she fal-
tered, while the delicate color suf-
fused her refined, Greek features.
In this moment she '.seemed, if pos-
sible, more beautiful than ever.

Hiilions in Cornstalks Thrown Away.
J. M. Kimbrough, an agricultural
txpert, said at the Central Georgia
Dairyman's convention that the
farmers of I lie State, in throwing
>way cornstalks, annually wasted
£4,500,000 worth of fodder, or about
10 p«r cent of tho value of their
