Because of the epidemic of the 
foot and mouth disease in this state 
the North Shore Poultry association 
exhibition scheduled for Beverly this

was taken on advice of the officials

dustry. 
GaIETY THEATRE, Boston 
Monday, November 23, will be 
somewhat of a gala day at this popu- 
lar place of amusement, being the 
sixth anniversary of its entre to the 
modern theatres of Boston. Now as 
then, the Gaiety easily holds first 
rank as the leading theatre of its 
class, still presenting the high grade 
of burlesque, which has become so 
immensely popular throughout the 
United States. 
Perhaps at the present day no form 
of entertainment receives more uni- 
versal patronage than the modern 
burlesque, chiefly due no doubt, to 
its diversified style of performance, 
embracing as it does, the best in 
musical comedy, vaudeville, drama 
and minstrelsy. 
Outside of its use for fence posts, 
black locust finds its principal utiliza- 
tion in insulator pins and brackets 
for telegraph and telephone lines.
