"Lit tle Johnny Jones," proyed so original and auch a 1 gorgeous - entertainment ' that 'hla teputatlon as an. author and compose was assured after the first night. Xlttle . Johnny Jones'' caught the-fancy and Hieing of the metropolis to such an extant that It scored a run of twenty-two weeks n New York, Several weeks In Boston, four weeks in Philadelphia and over three months in Chicago. No musical , production was made last season that attained such a Jrecord, and the fact that the theatre-.-f going public are to witness "Little Johnny Jones" In this ctty' at the Acad'. ny of '..Music, Jan. 85. Thursday con- Veys a-lth the announcement much pleasurable anticipation, and can eai- , lv bo considered one of the most no sble bookings of the season. "Little Jfhwv Jones" dtfer's rrestlv from 'any other musical comedy of recent titws Inasmuch as it contains a dra- v matlc story which at times , almost .borders on the sensational, and -"for: 1 this reason- perhaps It hos been ca!lAd rrnislcal melo-dranu. The story tells tre'frog- whose note he had traced to- the very spot and has baft his eye pass again and again? over a little gray knot which at last he discovers to be. the animal he was In search ot ,Almost sveryioountryiboy; has, at some time known, where an old ruf fled: grouse, had her nest and has fre quently gone to look at her, - Those who have done this know well how difficult It is to see the. bird, even though the 'precise spot where she sits Is ' known. ' The watcher stares and stares at the place, but cannot make out' the outline of the bird, so per fectly do they and the stripes ana bars of dark and light color with which her feathers are marked blend With the , surrounding herbage, we recall such a nest where the bird ajways had to V carefully looked for" ' before she could be seen? then It always happened . . that ; suddenly her form sprang Into the eye's view and it seemed -extraordinary that , lt had not been seen, before. In front of this neat there were certain cross- - 1 5 . i 4 i i d weed stems which were well teo ognlied and. j behind which tt .was known that the bird's head must ,le, yet it took always a long' time to- sea her.- v "1,4 1 , v-.?z'?sx&iJv&f$$ With big. game, the same thing happens constantly. . Many -, -a man who has hunted much has crept' up to a" ridge, looked' over and studied the landscape' with care, and 'then, having satisfied himself that., no game was In sight "has stepped out into plain View, seen a deer rise from its bed or slip out ot some little thicket and put itself in a position of safety without offering opportunity for a shot This seeming Invisibility, even when; they are In plain sight. makes ths . photographing of wild animals a matter of great difficulty.! We recatr as vividly , as If it were yesterday: carefully climbing : a " ridge in Wyoming and. studying a sage brush bain which lay . before . us. Glasses and good eyes were used, but absolutely nothing was seen, and An ally we stepped' over the hill, went partly down me open ana tnen stop ped and sat down to smoke. We had had time to light the plDes and to talk for a while, " and as we sat and J smoked. with our taoes airectly to ward the basin," slowly there grew out Of nothing feeding quietly there where he had been feeding all along, a. mountain, sheep, which was the game we were seeking. To most of her wild creatus na ture has sriven a wonderful defence in their adap,ttfn to their surround ings, and -whether it be a stately elk bull or a timorous deer, or a little chief hare sitting on the top of a rock near his burrow, they are all alike. , You, Can't Beat 'Em.

An attractive and altogether "bony" roung business woman of tbia city came here with a large stock of property and a small amount, or practical knowledge of the world to carve out her fortune, at f r passing her girlhood nay In Edin burgh and i London. Althoush without any jmdue amount of selt-consclousness or egotism, she is sometimes annoyed by the very eviaent as miration sne attracts In public places. The other day, while dining in a restaurant, she fancied that th. man AnMWtt, Mr a nmiarinff ta maak I to her, as he glanced her way, and seem ed to be making up his mlud to open a every morning several composers, two or three singers,, and.

It made Joe mad to see the duck having fun with his dog and took It up on the tat ter's behalf. He would try for the duck himself. It was a merry race of a quar ter of a mile with the bird skimming barely above the ice, when Joe, reaching out grabbed the bird In his arms, it is reported, but not generally credited, that the Pontlac city clerk, who never speeded faater or better In a campaign, cleared airholes twelve feet across; but he did catch the duck, the lute of whiah was never known before, "no. not tn Israel."
