Though the once-predicted rush of American immi grants to Cuba, has never materialized, and it may not be necessary to utter warnings to the unwary, still the follow ing extract from a letter to the Hennes sey Kicker from Corporal Rhoades, in Cuba, tells a good story, and tells it well, t especially as it is written with the evi dent intention of telling those who read it what they want to know, and not, like most letters from foreign shores, things that can as well toe found out in the cy clopedias and atlases. The corporal says, in part: 'What is Cuban land worth?' That is a question being asked all over the Unit ed States. That question I cannot an swer, but I can tell the price of land. They estimate here that one acre of cane will pay 389; that is, produce $80 worth of cane each year. Land that would pro duce that amount of money to the acre would be worth anywhere in the United States $500 to $1,000 per acre. The price of land here is from $3 to $6 per acre. That is, land that has been in cultivation and is now ready for the plow. Cultiva tion of sugar cane is as simple as tliat of sorghum and doubtless as cheap, except in planting. The cane is planted by lay fing whole stalks in the furrow, nnd is quite expensive, costing for seed alone about $5 per acre. The cane fleldss were utterly destroyed during the war, and it. is safe to say that not one-thousandth of the island is in sugar cane. For one cane mill left standing one can see a hundred that have been destroyed. There never was over one-tonth of the island in cultivation. The Spanish landholders are all desirous of selling out and going to Spain, while thousands of the Cuban landholders are compelled, by present ne cessity, to sell their lands. In fact, the whole country is for sale and but few' (buyers, and all are eagerly looking for ward to an influx of Americans as pur chasers. A great many companies are Sitting organized to buy it cheap and di "vide it into small farms, which will be old at a profit to the companies. Some Df theso companies have secured tracts of land as low as $1 per acre. I know of one tract near Colon, containing 5,000 stores, with good building and enclosed with hedge fence and containing enough i eed Xor planting the entire tract, to bo bld for $16,000. This tract is being cut into 50-acre farms, to be sold at J500 each, Jbeing three and ono-third times what the company paid for it. Thirty sales will repay the company. I cite this to show tthat the many Investing In Cuban land Bchemes at prices from $20 to 40 per acre ore simply being robbed. It Is a notori ous fact that a certain tract of land well covered with scrubby timber and being Sidvortised extensively for sale in the eastern end of the province at from $25 ho $50 per acre was purchased for 06 2-3 rents per acre. The tract contains about fi0M acres and is held by a stock com pany, and enough Mock lias already been i ikl to more than cover the original co?t prlco of the land. As this land has to be r lea red before being cultivated, some one f going to play sucker to that com pany's drag net." CASTOSHjSL. Ssk3 the f'N Haw AlWRfS m& GUTHRIE STREET FAIR IS ON Xaiionnl Guard On of the Xotnble Features--Flower Parade Today Guthrie. O. T.. Oct. 24. The second day of Guthrie's big stret fair and carnival opened with a smash, bang and roar, the reverberation of which must certainly Jiave been heard in the adjoining states and territories. And what crowds' The Santa Fe train front the north was made up of eleven conches crowded even to the i oof, and every country road was an endless procession of vehicles. The Mid way, with its manifold attractions and vrlental delights, is of course the big feature of the carnival. The soldier boys w ho are In camp at Island park are also nn attraction and the daily drills are viewed by hundreds. The soldiers are be ginning to reaXxe that the annual en campment not merely a picnic and the manner in which Colonei.Stone puts them (through thoir paces Is a revelation to most of the boys. Tomorrow will witness the parade of the queen. Miss Lillian Laux, and her escort. The queen will head the flower parade, which will probably be one of the most elaborate spectacles ever witnessed in the southwest. The race meeting also opens at the fair prounds, half a mite south of the city, tomorrow and Manager Severn has ar ranged an unusually attractive program for the entertainment of the lovers of that sort of sport. Jesse James, Jr., son of the noted Missouri bandit, arrived from Kansas City -today and will have charge of the cigar privileges at the fair grounds. NATIONAL (jnARD.XQTES. Company B of Chatndler was tb third company t arrive at camp, being pre ceded by companies from Pawnee and Pane City Captain Ashton wii lnot ar rii e until Wednesday, hot the company is jm 'eg- lib efficient leadership of Lenten jint Warre-. The company will be de- prlved of the services of First Sergeant Wray after Tuesday, as he is compelled to return to Chandler. .Wray is the youngest first sergeant of the sergeant but manages company affairs like a vet eran. Company B has no mascot but it has a constant attendant in the form of a "gag" which runs about like this: "If it c&uld so be that you could,be in the ccmpanyin which you'd like to be, what company woula you rather be in?" The answer Is, invariably, "company- B." When drll Icall. was sounded yesterday- morning the first company on the( parade grounds was B. They were further no ticeable by wearing shirts for uniform and by their excellent execution of'com pany skirmish drill. The boys from Chandler are never 'dissatisfied. If you ask, "What is the matter with Guthrie and Island park?" they'll say, "They're all right"; or, "What is the matter with Colonel Stone?" the answer will be the same as above, with an extra amount of enthusiasm. B.ut if someone should men tion the name of the "Little Lieuten ant" the reply would be "He's just too good to talk about." Every ex-member of company K, First regiment Oklahoma volunteers, felt a thrill of the old-time "down in Georgia" feeling yesterday when Lieutenant Col onel Hoffman appeared in camp. The B boys that were in company. K are Cap tain Ashton, Lieutenant Norton. Salla Seveor, Allan Pugh, First Sergeant Wray, Sergeant Martin, Sergeant Knapp, Cor poral Glenn, Captain Ashton wil lrecelve a warm welcome when he comes. He is a general favorite as well as a most efficient of ficer. Firt Lieutenant Warren served with the Fifth Missouri volunteers in the Spanish- American war. Company F halls from Shawnee and claims to be the most thoroughly drilled company on the grounds. With them is the Shawnee Concert band of sixteen pieces. x Company F has eight men who were members of the -First territorial regl mont. First Lieutenant L. E. Mlnton of com pany F, was a member of the First ter ritorial regiment and held the responsi ble position of regimental quartermaster sergeant He is well posted on military matters and is thought highly of by all the bors. Captain A. H. Young of company F, Is an old national guardsman, having been a member of the Nebraska guards for a number of years. As a drill master he cannot be beaten In the territory. The entire company thinks lots of him and have the utmost confidence in him. Company E of Pawnee, has thirty three men and three commissioned of ficers. Company E received today a barrel of fine apples, the gift of Territorial Treas urer F. M. Thompson. They extended their thanks in person and by three rous ing cheers. The honorable treasurer would no doubt receive the ame hearty thanks from the various other companies should they be the recipient of such a handsome and appropriate gift. 0 Company E arrived at midnight and were escorted to the grounds by Adjutant General Bert Orner, who received their hearty thanks for his kindness. Several of the boys went up town last night and rather than to pass the guards on their return, they camped in the brush for the balance of the night. A good many of the Rough Riders .and membors of the First territorial regiment are members of the national guard. T. E. Coller of company F, was taken quite 111 yesterday evening. He has not sufficiently recovered to go on duty. The boys all show up well and are gen tlemanly and sociable. The -national guard of the territory can compare with any In the other territories or states. The Oklahoma City U. C. T. band ar rived on the grounds today. PROUD OF HER COTTON MARKET Xorman Advertises Inducements Second to Xono Other. Guthrie, O. T., Oct. 24. The Transcript booms Xorman as a cotton market, as follows: Norman's cotton market Is bodmlng caused by the good prices offered by its Layers, good grades given and courteous treatment accorded. Prices range from $6.20 lu $7.00, according to grade and there Is but little that does not grade up so far as to secure from $6.65 to $6.75 per hundredweight. Cotton in the seed "brings from $2.17 to $2.20. The fame of Norman as a cotton market hes stretched out to Shawnee and Tecumseh, and every ,day farmers from within a fow miles of those towns are here with cotton. One day last week a procession of wagons containing 44 toales came in from within eight miles of Shawnee. Their cotton graded up well and they were given 7 cents a pound for it and went home rejoicing after spending a goodly portion of the proceeds with' our merchants. On Tuesray another proces sion rolled in from Denver with 53 bales, which was sold for $6.90, and a few days ago a similar demonstration came in from Franklin. All these displays were photo graphed by "W. E. Brooks e fine picture being especially made of the Franklin display. The gin at the Norman oil mill has ginned about S50 bales, over two thirds of them being round bales. The Norman Milling company's gin has baled some 300 bales. This is about half what was baled last year at this time by those gins. The country gins are doing the bulk of the business this year. Prices are al most double what they were last year, and the 1S99 crop will make more clear money for the farmers than that of 1S93. Andy Berry estimates that this year's receipts at Norman will be about 4,000. bales. Last year they were some 7,000.

Philadelphia, Oct 24. Today's session of the International Commercial Congress was devoted to the discussion of canals, and several valuable papers were read on the subject of Isthmian waterways. James C. Monaghan, United States con sul at Chimnltz, presided. Among those Who addressed the delegates were J. B. Calvo, Costa Riican minister to the Unit ed States; Climaco Calderon, Colombian minister; Lewis F. Corea, Nicaraguan minister; H. A. Gudger, United States consul at Panama; Henrique Wulff, con sul general of Bolivia; J. W. Humphrey of Colon; William Pember Reeves of New Zealand; Sir Horace Toser of Queens land, and J. R. Johnson of Minnesota- There was an open discussion, of the Isthmian canal. Mr. Monaghan in open ing the session, said that Germany now has a vast system of canals, and that her example had been emulated by Rus sia. "Once the Nicaragua canal Is built," ho said, "there can be no question but that it will be a saving to the world equal to four hundred million dollars a year. Suppose, then, it does cost $200, 000,000. This seems to be a mere bagatelle by comparison. The waters which once divided the nations of the earth have now become 'the golden link which unites them, and tho greatest possibility now open to human ingenuity and enterprise is the construction of such works as this great Nicaraguan waterway." Mr. Calvo spoke of the. position of that country and her direct interest in the uniting of the two great oceans by means of a canal across the American isthmus. The advantageous position of Costa Rica between Nicaragua and Pan ama, he said", insured to its people all the benefits of proximity as the nearest neighbor, whichever of the two. places the route might ultimately traverse. "But," ho continued, "the Costa Rica frontier does not reach the line of the Panama canal, while a' portion of our territory is indispensable to the Nicaragua route. And this is not a new fact, or one estab lished by recent surveys, but which is well known since the very days of Vasco Nunez do Bilboa." He then sketched the history of the isthmian canal project from its inception to its present! status. "Costa Rica," he asserted, "realizes the importance of this work, the- most transcendental, perhaps, undertaken in. this age, and contributes to encourage it, consulting her own Inter est and tho impulse to be, derived from it by the general progress of the world, and especially of the nations of this con tinent." H. A. Gudger, United States consul at ranama. spoke in. favor of the rouie contemplated by that canal, an'I said that for more than half a century it has been the conceded natural wav, result ing in failure after the exoeidilure of many, millions and the many scanda's connected with it. He favored the com pletion of the same route on the grounds that It is the natural course, that cne third of it Is already completed, ad a new company composed of men of probity has taken the place of the old comrany and its scandals. In conclusion he sa'd: "After a careful survey of the field, I be lieve that the time Is ripe for the pur chase by the United States of the control of this canal. The terms of the conces sions by which wo may obtain it are lib eral and it is my opinion that the Re public of Colobia would hail with pleas ure tho ownership of this route by tho United States." II. Sell of London, read a paper on "The New Trade Routes of the World." He favored the construction of the Pan ama canal. J. W. Humphreys of Colon, also spoko In its favor. A paper prepared by Enrique Wulff .consul general of Bo livia, made a similar recommendation. At the afternoon session tho Nicar aguan canal was the subject of a paper read by Juan J. Ulloa, consul general of Costa Rica at New York, and former vice president of Costa Rica. Dr. Ulloa said in part: "It seems unnatural, nob to say ridiculous, that such a trifle as cut ting htrough a few yards of land should compel the giant of commerce to go around Cape Horn. The canal must dug by the government of the United States in preference to private enterprise, be cause it will better serve commerce and the general public thus. One hundrerd and twenty-five million dollars taken by yearly Installments will not make Uncte Sam feel much poorer, and will undoubt edly bo his must profitable invostment, because he will succeed 1 cutting down greatly tho transportation and freight rates, and will open to his countrymen the best markets for Central and South America and the East The practicability of the Nicaragua canal Is beyond ques tion, in preferring this route, because of the many natural advantages, because of the richness of the land, and because of the superiority of the climate over that of Panama. The San Juan river and Nicaragua lake dimmish considerably the land through which excavation must be made and the magnificent lake is in Itself a veritable acquisition. From the report of Rear Admiral Walker's canal commis sion, as well as that of Colonel Ludlow. It will be seen that the entire cost of the canal will be under $135.00. 00, which lg a small sum when we consider, the result whieh will bo obtained," Mr. Rortherarn. a delegate from Mel bourne, said anything which would has ten the transit of goods from one coun try to another would confer a blessing upon both the producer and the con sumer. "Uncle Sam is getting along a little late as a land-grabber compared with the activity of his progenitor," he said. "But he Is just now beginning to catch up, and he should hurry up in this question of connecting his new posses sions in the oast with his states in the wet- The politicians should not be al lowed to stand in the way of this great inter-oceaaic canal scheme. The mer chant princes and manufacturers of America should compel the politicians to do their duty." In the unavoidable abaftaee of Mfafster U. L. Merry of Costa. RJca. ats paper on the Nlcararaan canal was read by Fran cis Tracy Tobin of this dry, Mr. Merry. in sutamla? up hi? papar said: "It I trgg&sted that this abort and imperfect paper satisfactorily demonstrates the fol. lowing points: That the sanitary condi tions are most favorable at NSearasna asd at Panama; that the Nicaraguan ca Cures all Throat and Lung Affections. Get the genuine. Refuse substitutes. A XlS sure Dr. SuITs P3U cure Dyspepsia. Triat so for 5c nal will, on the whole, save greater dis tances; that the Nicaragua route Is avail able for sailing vesstls, while that of Panama is practically available only for steamships; that the facilities for con struction are the most favorable at Nica ragua; that it has materials for construc tion and food supply, which are lacking at the PanamaJsthmus; that the supply of lockage water by gravity is supera bundant at Nicaragua and doubtful at Panama; that the cost of operation will not materially differ; that the Nicaragua canal will have a local earning capacity which cannot be developed at Panama; that the liability to seismic disturbances are apparently equal; that the strategic position of the Nicaraguan canal In its relation to the United States is decided ly superior to the Panama route." The paper of Climacoe Coldron, minis ter to Colombia, was read in Spanish. It was a strong argument in favor of the Panama canal. The paper declared that 'there is no doubt of the necessity of the inter-oceanic canal and that the commer cial and technical investigations have shown that the 'Panama route is far su perior to any other. Colonel L. Persym, formerly United States consul at Colon, spoke briefly but forcefully in favor of the Panama pro ject. The Panama route, he said, is the shortest and most practicable or any kind of a canal, and the only possible one for a sea-level canal. He further said that the Panama canal can be completed In eight years for about $100,000,000, mater ial and equipment being on the spot in nearly sufficient quantities. He claimed that it would take forty-eight hours for a steamer to pass through the Nicara guan canal, and only twelve hours through the Panama. In conclusion, he said that the Panama project was held back in the United States by a political Clique which he declared to be working in favor of the Nicaraguan plan. The chair then proposed a number oQ questions for discussion by the congress as to the relative merits of the two routes, suggesting, first, that the north ern, or Nicaraguan, route would be short er to the east; second, that It would also be more important to North America thaa the Panama route, as the Panama route was especially favored because of inter ests of South America; third, as to which of the routes was the better -for sailing vessels; fourth, does not the Nica ragua route offer the advantages of pass ing through a great and flourishing coun try?

Cape Town, Oct. 21. A message received this evening from Mafeking, by way of Lorenzo Marques says: "All well in Ma feking on October 20." London, Oct. 24. The war office pub lished tonight a dispatch from Colonel Baden-Powell, the British commander at Mafeking, dated October 15, and forward ed from Cape Town. It says: "All well here. In a fight today, four miles from Mafeking, the armored train, a section of the British South African police and two squadrons- of the Protectorate regi ment repulsed the enemy, losing two killed and fifteen wounded, the latter in cluding Lieutenant Bentnick, Ninth Lan cers, and Lieutenant Bryan of the Pro tectorate regiment, both slightly. The enemy's loss Is estimated at fifty-three killed, besides many wounded. The names of our killed and wounded will follow. All worked splendidly and are very anx ious for the next meeting with the en emy." London, Oct 25. A dispatch to the Morning Post from Ximberley dated the afternoon of October 20 and carried by a dispatch rider via the Orange river, where it is dated October 24, reports slight skir mishing and small casualties. It is be lieved, however, that the dispatch must refer to the armored-train fight at Ma feking. Dispatches to the Dally Mall from Cape Town, dated October 24, say that five big guns have been sent from Pretoria to Mafeking. STEYN ANNEXES BRITISH SOIL London, Oct. 24. The colonial office has received a cablegram stating that Presi dent Steyn, of the Orange Free State, has Issued a proclamation annexing that part of Cape Colony which i3 north of the Vaal river. This means Griqualand Wo3t and Bechuanaland, and is apparently in consequence of the Free State forces hav ing seized the railway and all stations north of Kimberly except Mafeking, un less Mafeking has fallen since the last news from there, which is a week old. London. Oct. 24. It is reported at Cape Town, that President Steyn of the Orange Free State, is close to Allwal North, near Herschel. on t heborders of the Orange Free State. It Is added that the Boer camps on the Orange river are quiet, that plowing and shearing are proceeding and that there are large quantities of stock on the river bank.

Colony, dated Monday evening: "The Transvaal government are about issuing a proclamation declaring the district north of the Vaal river, and Including Bechuanaland, to be Boer territory. Com mandant Cronje. who has been twice re pulsed at Mafeking, Is said to be advanc ing on KImberley and to be impressing men and seizing stores'and munitions in British territory.- He left a small force investing Mafeking. The Free State Boers aTe moving westward in order to join him for an attack on KImberley. The dispatch Tiders -who are coming down to tho Orange river from KImberley, are performing thrilling feats. They ride through the Boer lines under cover of darkness and get to the Orange river without taking any rest, save for a change of horses. The distance is sixty tniles. One rider iwho got into KImber ley last Friday was chased seventeen miles by Boers, narrowly escaping with his life. The same man returned safely vith dispatches to Orange river today. When he reached a point thirty miles from KImberley, his horse fell and kicked two of his fingers against a rock, but despite this painful wound the gal lant fellow made a good journey here. He reports that the Boers are three miles from KImberley but are afraid to attack the place and are awaiting the arrival of Commandant Cronje. No Boers are to be seen south of Belmont, which is twenty miles north of the Orange river. The defeats In Natal are taking all the fight out of them and they-will not at tack the British troops, though they may defend a few positions. Indeed, it is be lieved here that the heaviest fighting of the war is over, except for a battle near Pretoria." THEPOLITICS OF ANNEXATION Cape Town, Oct. 2C A dispatch from KImberley, dated October 21 and brought by a dispatch rider to the Orange river, has just arrived here. It says: "The po sition in KImberley is unchanged. The siege continues. Yesterday the armored train found the enemy in the same posi tion in the Spyfontein neighborhood. The prisoners who were captured when the armored train was destroyed by, the Boers at Kraalpan are now reported alive and well treated. The Boers hoisted the flag of the Transvaal over Vryburg on Oc tober IS and are about issuing a procla mation that Bechuanaland now forms part of the Transvaal. Thi3 is regarded as a move on the part of tho enemy to Induce the colonial Dutch to join the re public without incurring the risk here after of the charge of high treason, if the Boers are ultimately defeated. Col onel Keckwlch, on hearing of it. immedi ately issued a proclamation noticing the people that if any British subjects were found assisting her majesty's enemies, either directly or Indirectly, such person would bo punished summarily as a base rebel. Several arrests of Cape Dutchmen were made here yesterday." ATTITUDE OF THE NATIVES London, Oct. 24. A dispatch received at Cape Town from Merschel, dated Octo ber 23, says fifteen natives who have ar rived there say they were arrested after leaving Johannesburg and ordered to fight the British in Natal. But they succeeded in escaping. According to runners who have arrived at KImberley from Kuru man, British Bechuanaland, the resident magistrate there has recently presided at a council of the native chiefs. He ad vised them not to participate in the war. The natives expressed satisfaction at tho magistrate's explanation and promised to remain quiet. London, Oct. 24. The colonial office this evening published a dispatch receiv ed from the British high "commissioner In South Africa, Sir Alfred Mllner, commun icating a significant dispatch from Sir Godfrey Langt, tho British resident com missioner in Basutoland, calling atten tion to the recklessness of the Basutos, whom, ho says, he has been trying to calm. Tho resident commissioner adds: "Our policy, however, has been made dif ficult by the blustering of the Boers, who have frequently threatened to attack Ma &uru and other stations. Theso threats, combined with intriguing, have contrib uted to rouse excitement among the na tives. I wish to place it on record that tho Boers hae unwisely attempted to shako the allegiance of the Basut03 and frustrate our efforts toward tranquility. The Boers, therefore, are responsible for and commotion and for the alarm re garding native invasions which now pre vails." Capo Town, Oct 24. The following ad vices have been received here from Ma zeru, Basutoland, dated October 23. A re liable native lately visited a laager of Orange Freo State troops just opposite I Mezuru. He found it to consist of wag ons surrounded by turf three feet high. He noticed only a few Mausers. The Boer commandant questioned him regard ing the different Basuto chiefs, princi pally the paramount chief, Lorothodl, and in order to draw out the command ant the native replied that the natives sided with the Boers. Thereupon the commandant said that the two republics wished to kill the Britishers and to take over and govern the Basutos, restoring to the latter that part of the country which the Free State formorly took from them. As to the Britishers, those whom they failed to kill they would drive into the sea. The commandant wished a de cision on the part of Lorothodi and the other chiefs as soon as possible whether they would fight the Boers or the British because his contingent was anxious to help the Boers elsewhere. He acknowl edged that his men were afraid of the Basutos because their wives and families, as well as thoir cattle, were within reach of a Basuto incursion; and be said he was prepared to enter into an agreement with the chiefs, signing the samt, to glv a very substantial recompense for asatet ing the Boers. Failing this, if the Ea sutos would give a written understand ing not to assist either side, the com mandant said his force wwild withdraw from tho Basutoland border and go to the assistance of their countrymen whec e the fighting was hottest Tbs Br3 00 the Basutoland frontier, according to tae best information obtainable at Mazvrn, number about 20).

British commercial interests in Fers-ia are so large that a Russian seizure of the commanding position In western Afghanistan would be a serious stroke, aimed directly against free trade. That seems a more likely menace than tho forcing of the Dardanelles by the Russian Black Sea fleet. Tho movement o fa powerful French fleet to the Levant coincides with the circulation of a rumor that tho Russian advanco may te re sumed in Asia while England is pre-occu-pied at war in South Africa. It also fits in with the explanation of a secret agreement between England and Ger many. This was that England. In return for a free hand In South Africa In set tling the Transvaal question, had agreed not to make any hostile use of her Jleet if the German emperor wero to decide to follow up his visit to Jerusalem with a serloy attempt to colonize any portion of Asia (Minor and to bring it under Ger man Influence. A prominent diplomatist whom I consulted yesterday remarked that the nature of the Anglo-German agree ment was the closest secret in Europeon diplomacy, but that the foregoing state ment was the most reasonable explana tion which he had ever heard. Denials may be expected, as a matter of oourss, but I do not hesitate to repeat on high authority that tho British navy will not bo used against Germany la the Levant and that this is the secret understanding which has released England from all risk of German Intervention In South Africa. Certainly, Germany Is not the quarter from which England has suspect ed that soma sudden attack might be made, and consequently has ordered pre parations for war on a larger scale than the campaign with the Dutch burghera has justified. The Channel squadron will not sail In the Mediterranean on account of any German menace. The relations 0 f England (and Oermany are roost cor dial ,and the emperor's visit next month 1 sa plain indication that for practical reasons he Is reconciled to a policy which enab'es the British government to recon struct the Dutch republics and to bring them under the authority of the cro'wn. 'England and Germany are acting to gether In the Samoan negotiations, but not to the disadvantage of America. In deed, German policy Is now directed toward the establishment of the most cordial relations with America a well as England. General Harrison, who. with his wife, dined last night at the Hiunc of Commons with Mr. Balfour, to met the leaders in English public life, would be a good witness for this point, for he was entertained by the emperor at Pots dam and by the German chancellor at Berlin."

Ifee Wxtl&t Jpailij "Engla WLz&nts&xj gfrmthtft tttfotv 25, 1899 M. r. JIIIKDOCK, Editor. A Thousand Heroes in Topeka. The reception to be tendered the Twentieth Kansas by the people of the state, at the capital, tvith the arrival of Its officers and men, on special Santa Fe trains from San Francisco, will-be the most inspiring event of the character ever witnessed in the west, not excepting Denver's enthusi astic welcome to the returning Coloradoans last month. Colorado welcomed back to their mountain homes a band of patriots. Kansas, herself the child of the sentiment: Lib erty without a crown; herself the champion of the principle Freedom without a slave, will open her arms to a whole j-egiment of heroes, and all her own heart and blood, and all valorous beyond compare in the estimation of the whole world, her own sons whose warrant as such Inheres In their daring and intrepidity.. The distinctive honor of this reception, which is to be marked for sympathy and enthusiasm, for cordiality and admiration, falls to Topeka, and the evidences all point to that city's, worthiness of the trust. Generosity and pride Qiave Inspired the greatest effort of her civic life. No pains or expense are to be spared. Her homes are to be hostelries, lier public houses casemates, her public buildings bivouacs, 3ier streets an encampment smothered in colors and brll 3iant from a thousand broken currents of the dynamo. The .time, energy and money so freely and liberally contributed by the citizens of Topeka have been enhanced by the hand pome contributions'of cash from several of the trunk line3 of railway, and all Kansans are especially invited guests, the freedom of the city and all it has or is to be theirs. There can be no question as to the entire success of this promised jubilee. Even an unpropltious spell of weather would fail to dampen so great anardor, or seriously mar its glory. Every town, city and hamlet of the state will be represented by men and women who believe that there is 3iot only prestige and prosperity for our country in the ac quisition of the Pacific's thousand rich islands, but liberty, Hiappiness and wealth for their heretofore benighted and oppressed peoples. Especially, or more particularly, will ithe communities of the eastern section of the state, from which these brave soldiers of ours hail, be on hand in great numbers at the capital. Our only regret in this connection 3s that the Twenty-first regiment, which came from our own section of the state, were denied the opportunity of sailing for Manila also, for the Philippine war would not only have been ended ere this, but we would have been welcoming back to Kansas hearts and homes two, instead of one, thousand heroes. As a writer In the Denver Evening Post, a former Kan san, who, catching from the winds that sweep on and ever up from the crop-ladened prairies of Kansas to the feet of the majestic mountains of Colorado which are now stand ing with white covered heads waiting In dumb silence for the suns of another summer something of the spirit which Js Inspiring our own people, poetically says' Hark! "What means that Jayhawk yell Sweeping o'er the corn-waved ocean? "Why that clang of festal bell? "Why that jubilant commotion? Listen, and you'll hear the cry Through the glad air gaily hummlo; Till it caroms on the sky: "Funston's comin'!" "Up and down the Arkansaw Is the air with glad shouts teeming, In the valley of the Kaw, Where the Smoky Hill is gleaming, Over every Kansas plain Chick and child and man and woman Join in swelling the refrain:. "Funston's comin'!" In that grand old state the cry Has been one of joy unceasing Never met a mortal eye Crops of magnitude more pleasing, But the ranchers' bosoms swell With an added joy when some 'un -Starts the now magnetic yell: "Funston's comin'!" Comin' with the gallant fleet Built for land or water fighting. Human craft who left their feet "When a swim was more inviting! Mn whose deeds have fired the land Till the air is fairly hummin' "With the cry on every hand: "Funston's comin'!" Veterans of the olden war, Lodged in every fruitful valley, Are preparing to once more Mass themselves in rousing rally; Step again In martial way To the flfln' and the drummin" A they did in their war-day: "Funston's comin'!" House, ye Kansans! Paint the state Redder than the fiery chasm! Cut her loose and jubilate Till the echoes have a spasm! Koll the patriot wave along. Set the wheels of welcome hummin -Till the whole earth hears the song: "Funston's oomln'!" O That Fusion Still Hunt. Not daring to attack the successful, not to say glorious and patriotic policy of the national administration; fearing the logical inconsistency of denouncing annexation to men whose prairie homes stand on acquired territory the Fusionlsts of Sedjrw Ick county are making what they call a still hunt" Their candidates are relying more upon button-holing than upon principle. It is certain that they dare nol rely upon their platform, which in denouncing the war nnd ripping into the acquisition of a thousand or more islands of the Pacific, discredits the patriotism of every American who volunteered, -who responded to his country's call. Fusion may be a handy thing in a "sUU hunt," a suc cessful dodge for securing office for those who manipulate and direct it, but Fusion depends for success on the fooling .of those who do the voting or otherwise on a play upon prejudice. The man who is in favor of keeping all we won. in the war with Spain who can be button-holed by a sUU hunter '.n'o voting for a Fusion candidate and platform Is vottosr ara.TSt his desires, however sincere a man he nrov be, and however nice the Fusion candidate may be person ally. Bryan is a nice man in every way, smart as a whip, and -no doubt as capable as his friends claim, but he is op posing the retention of the Pacific islands, and in such op position he stands against the interest of the western farmer, and the western farmer who votes for Bryan or for the Fusion party which proposes to support Mr. Bryan, votes against his own pocket Nobody knows what Bryan -personally believes on this question, but his backers having concluded that the only possible chance of whipping McKin ley was to take up the anti-expansion cry, Bryan opened out accordingly. The Eagle has no fight to make on the candidates of Fusion as individuals. Like Mr. Bryan, they all are probably nice men, maybe personally capable. But their platform and principles are" against the present and future interests of this entire country, especially of the producing west Opposition to the Republican party is op position to the present prosperity of the country. And no man is so dull as to fail of appreciating the difference be tween the times now and those of four, or even two years ago. How any old Union soldier could vote for Fusion this fall, w-?uld vote against present improving conditions and against the national policy of McKinley, passes our compre hension. Button-holing and still hunting should not be in it with open avowal and unequivocal declarations of prin ciple; nor can the button-holing of a "still hunt" cover up or annul a Fusion platform which virtually holds that Dewey made a mistake in sailing into the Bay of Manila, and a bigger mistake that, having sunk the Spanish fleet, he did not sail out again, leaving ten millions of people to the rule of loot and anarchy. If Dewey was right, stand by him with your vote and by the administration which di rected and supported him in his course. Make Him a Rear Admiral at Least. The newspaper editors of the country are at it again over the announcement that upon the meeting of congress President McKinley will transmit the names of Sampson and Schley to the senate for confirmations as admirals, with Sampson some points ahead of Schley. A majority of the southern press protests that Schley, not Sampson, should stand at the head. However, McKinley and Long should know, and probably do know, best who shouldered the greater responsibility in that wonderful victory on the sea. But be that as it may, there are millions of people who live neither in the south or the north, but who dwell in the more cosmopolite west, who think that one sailor-hero of Santiago has been overlooked, if not slighted. Captain Charles E. Clark, of the Oregon, who at the beginning of the war was transferred to that ship from the Monterey, made the unprecedented round-the-Horn run that was fol lowed by the anxious sympathy of millions of people, brought his ship to the Florida coast in remarkable time, and Tas in at the death of the Spanish fleet to the extent that the sinking of the Colon where she now lies was due more to the magnificent work of the Oregon than to any and all of the other vessels' of Sampson's fleet. Captain Mahan intimates that if Clark had been attacked by the four Spanish cruisers the Oregon might have whipped them all. It happens, too, that Clark came out of that nerve destroying run from the Pacific coast and from the fight off Santiago with health at least temporarily Impaired. He has made no speeches, given no Interviews. He has remained what he was from the first a modest, able, sensible gen tleman and naval officer, and that his qualities and his work have not been recognized as have been the work of others less entitled than he to special rewards is unjust. A Railroad Through the Garden of Eden. It is said that an English syndicate has secured the con cession from the Sultan of Turkey to build a railroad through the Euphrates valley to the Persian gulf. If the scheme materializes the railroad will run through the re puted site of the Garden of Eden. Biblical scholars have reasoned that this tract was in Mesopotamia, the district lying between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates, and if this is the case, the railroad will traverse it The project of building a railroad from Constantinople to the Persian gulf was broached many years ago by the late Ferdinand De Lesseps, but his attempts were In vain. England and Rus sia have both tried -to obtain a similar privilege. At last Germany obtained permission to build a railroad from a port opposite Constantinople to Angora, and the Anotollan railroad was the result. The extension of this railroad from Koniah, first to Bagdad and thence to Bassora 'on the Persian gulf, has been a pet scheme of Emperor William, and, according to the New York Herald, the move which the English syndicate is now about to undertake is the re sult of the entente cordiale between the two countries. Tobacco is good. When the major of the Highlanders in the charge at Elandstaagte was brought down with a bulletin his leg, he took out his pipe and, smoking it, calm ly watched his men charge on.

The British soldiery, as ever, is admirable. There is no storm of lead they will not face, and -when they tackh? a job they have no other idea than the determination to do It. There is no doubt that France and Russia are intriguing against' England. And if they show opent fight, we hope England will pummel the daylights out of botn of them. e General Yule seems to be isolated and General "White cut off, in South Africa. But wait till General Sir Redvers Buller gets on the scene and straightens out his uniform. e The Boers were whipped at Glencoe because of a hot headed general who attacked before reinforcements reached him, so that he might have all the glory to himself. Funston said that he did say: "I will hold the line until my regiment is mustered out." He did, of course. So did half a dozen other men in American history. .A The transport Senator is safe and not wrecked, as was supposed. The Spanish war and the Filipino war have been carried on without a single disaster. There is no prettier advance in the world than the charge of the Gordon Highlanders, unless it is the onslaught of our own men in Wue and khaki. The French fleet has left for the eastern Mediterranean. The French might better take it home. It might run up against a Nelson or a Dewey. Cecil Rhodes is surrounded in Kimberly. if the Boers ever get him they will not do a thing to him In their quiet, unostentatious way. Idaho doesn't seem to be able to take care of itself. Idaho is principally big enough only to have two United Slates senators. The British victory at Elandstaagte has done one thing, stifled rebellion among the Dutch in Cape Cotoev and Natai. The British have got Elandstaagte. and that is about all. But that was the .first blood and the first crow.

The Boers are keeping the British rather busy at that game of hide and go seek.- It was a great fight at Elandstaagte, and dfsdoHna woa. His Own Confidential Man, They were alike, this father and daugh ter. Lizzie was his youngest, and al though she had attained the age of IS she was still childish in her ways. The judge placed his hand tenderly on. the little curly head. "Where has my lit tle daughter been?" "O, I have been up to the hall talking with the housekeeper, and wandering through the great rooms; and, O, papa, she really took me into the beautiful con servatory, and I saw such lovely, flam ing passion flowers, and the great, creamy magnolia blossoms, and, dear me, I can't tell you of all the Qovely things"." She was suddenly stopped by seeing a gentleman approaching from the opposite side of the road. "Mr. Ray, I believe." The judge bowed. "Agent for the St. Leon place?" "Yes, sir." "I came to see you in regard to It, and "And you are Mr. St Leon'3 confidential clerk, Mr. Hartley! I believe I received a letter today from him informing, me that you would arrive this week. Yes, yes; come right up to the house and we will talk over the "repairs. Shall we begin them Immediately?" ""Papa, you don't mean to say you have brought him home a confidential clerk? You know there are the best rooms to be papered and cleaned, and our pink dress es to be made, against Herbert St. Leon's arrival. Well. I shall see that he is DUt in the little room over the kitchen. He pill never know the difference," and Blanche sank back in a studied attitude on the sofa, wondering if handsome Bert 'St. Leon would fancy her lovely pink morning dress that she had made for his special benefit The door of the dining-room was ajar, and Mr. Hartley, standing Before the fire in the little parlor, had heard It all. "Mr. Confidential Clerk, you are cry ing," and Lizzie pushed the white kitten from her lap and came over to his side. "I am sorry you heard them, but never mind, I'll be your friend." "Your friendship is dear to me, my lit tle girl." "I'm not a little girl! I was 18 last week." "Pardon me, young lady; but can you tell me something of the hall? What sort of a place is it?" "Lizzie, Lizzie! you are talking far more than is necessary. Go to your French, immediately!" A month had passed by. Mr. Hartley had exchanged his close apartments over the kitchen for more commodious ones at the village inn, whence he calmly super intended the projected Improvements at the hall, and all the gossip exchanged be tween himself and Lizzie was in the course of her rambles through St. Leon's woods. And now Mr. Hartley sat in the same little parlor where Lizzie had first vowed to be his friend and awaited the appear ance of the Judge. "You wish to see me, Mr. Hartley?" "Yec, sir. I came to ask you for the hand of your daughter your little Lizzie. I love her more than my life. Judge Ray." "You cannot have her! No, sir! I look for something higher- for friy daughter than a cnPdential clerk. If that is all I bid you good evening." Next night the judge rode slowly home to dinner, feeling a presentiment of evil. "Where is Lizzie?" he inquired of Blanche, as he ehtered tha cozy dining room. "In her room, I suppose, mourning after her dear clerk." "Well, call her to dinner, child." Blanche went, but returned immediate ly, with a pale, frightened face. "She Is not there, papa, but this note lay on her table.',' The judge broke the seal and read, with a face that hadgrown suddenly pale: "By the time that you reau thesa-words, dearest papa, your little Lizzie will be.an other's. I shall be married to Mr. Hart ley. I hope It li not wrong, for, indeed, I do love him very'much.-" As he folded the noe, with stern fea tures, a light step crossed the threshhold, and Lizzie's arms Were around his neck; me confidential-clerk standing at the door, with a face whole pride and indomitable resolution struggled for the mastery. "Papa, forgivo us!" "I'll see you hanged first!" roarde the old gentleman. '"Begone, both of you! Beg, starve, but never come to me for as sistance!" "O, papa," pleaded Lizzie, "I want to exclaln." "I won't hear iyou." "Be it so," said the clerk. "Come, little wife, we have each other left, you know," and they went from the house. Blanche was just coming out of hyster ics, when there came a ring at the bell, and a gentleman bearing a foreign-looking bag was ushered In. "Is this Mr. Ray?" The judge bowed. "Is Mr. St Leon here?" "Mr. St Leon, sir, is In Paranham, Bra zil "I think you are mistaken, sir, as T have been informed he is at this moment in his native village." "Herbert St. Leon at home and not send word to me, his agent? I must go to the hall Immediately." The flights glimmered brilliantly from the gothlc windows of the hall and winked defiance at the blustering storm without as the judge rang the bell at the great front door. ''Mr. St. Leon has he arrived?" The servant bowed and ushered him in- to a room whose superbly arranged furni ture struck Mr. Ray with an indefinite Idea of luxurv. Lizzie was standing by a tall alabaster vase, that stood in the bay window, ar ranging th tropic vines that curled around its standard, and the light from the colored lamps shown down on the curly head so dear to the Judge's heart The confidential clerk stood near. "I wish (to see your master, young man." "I am at your service, sir." "You are! Who the mischief cares whether you are or not? I wish to see Mr. St Leon "Herbert St Leon is my name, Ir." "You? Why. I thought you were the confidential clerk"' "I nevpr told vou I was. You took that jTor granted As the confidential clerk I wooed and won Your daughter. As Her bert St Leon I could have gained no great treasure." New York Daily News. The and Outlines of Oklahoma. Everybody at the district court session in Bea er county went free.

The well j belonged to Mr. Craig. He went after some water and IMrs. Tate fought him j away from the pump. He got the water, however, and had an injunction served on Mrs. Tate not to interfere with his prop erty. She flashed back with a warrant for his arrest for assault and battery. How full-grown, like Minerva, some liti gations are born. Hardesty Herald: The Cimarron News published at Kenton, in the west end of this county, speaks thusly of Beaver county's mining Interests: "The Carrlso mining camp is a live place now-a-days Men of experience and men without ex perience are there hunting for rich cop- per leads. For the past twelve ears mln- ers have hunted, prospected and worked to find metal In paying quantity. Its dls- j tance from railroad has been against It development. At this time more capital is interested than has been at any pre- j vlous time. More stable men have taken Siold and will spend their money in thor oughly testing the leads and veins that arc known to exist, and we trust they will meet with success.

33ail3 Wxtftei WU&wts&as fPffWiixs, tfo&jet: 25, 1899 6 THUGS BRUT JAIL Five Desperate Criminals Escape From City Building. DID A VERY NEAT JOB Supp osed to Have Gone to Guthrie Street Fair. Five vags and criminals -well known to the police circles throughout this section broke the lock on the big door of the city jail and escaped. Their names are Charles Raymond, C. "W. Howell, J. L. Smith, Ed Kelley and "SVm. Johnson. All ihad been arrested by Detective Sutton and Officer Fox as vagrants before the opening of the Street Fair, as it was well known that they came here for the pur pose of working their nefarious business on the unsuspecting jostler in the big crowds They were kept in confinement ell week, and after the fair was over and She jail was being emptied of its burden of drunks and disturbers of the peace, their inclination to depart was so great that they adopted their own means and cut their way out Sunday afternoon. It 4s thought by some that their pals must have handed them weapons through the window Saturday night or some time during the week, in order that they could get out and follow the crowd to Guthrie. Their absence was not discovered until late Sunday afternoon, when some of the policemen had occasion to visit the base ment and saw the door open and the jail empty. The alarm was given, and a hur ried search of the city was made, but no clue to the whereabouts of any of the men could be found. The large door lead ing Into the main part of the cell rooms Is fastened by a large iron clasp, and with instruments of superior keenness the toughs had worked on this until they could force it from its place. They are all big, stout fellows, and with a deter mined push, they bent the remaining hold and swung the door open. The out side door leading to the cells In the base ment Is fastened only by an inside spring lock. It was thus easy for the vagabonds to open this door and walk out upon the Etreets free and defiant. And they did it In the broad daylight of a Sunday after noon. The first three vags are supposed to be very bad men with a record that might have brought rewards for their capture, and it was the Intention to have them photographed for the rogues' gallery on Monday. It was this intention which they learned of which doubtless prompt ed them to act so promptly in the matter and so boldly. Otherwise they would probably have waited until night time to accomplish their escape. COMPLIMENT CHIEF" CUBBON 3Ierchnntlle Companies Thanlc Him for Iaxt Week's Work The following paper was circulated and signed yesterday in testimony of the ap preciation of Chief Cubbon's work: Wichita, Kan.', Oct. 21, 1899. TVe, the undersigned exhibitors at the "Wichita Street Fair, unsollcltedly desire to express our admiration for the man ner In which the welfare of all concerned was looked after on the fair grounds by A TEST EXPERIflENT. Peculiar Power Possessed by aX'ew Medicine. Of new discoveries there is no end, but cne of the most rocent, most remarkable and one which will prove Invaluable to thousands of people, is a discovery which it Is believed will take the place of all other remedies for the cure of those com mon and obstinate diseases, dyspepsia and stomach troubles. This discovery Is not a loudly advertised, secret patent medicine, but is a scientific combination of wholesome, perfectly harmless vegeta ble essences, Xrult salts, pure pepsin and bismuth. These remedies are combined In loz onge form, pleasant to take, and will pro sen e their good qualities indefinitely, whereas all liquid medicines rapidly lose whatever good qualities they may have had as soon as uncorked and exposed to the air. This preparation is called Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets and it Is claimed that one of these Tablets or lozenges will digest from 300 to 3,000 times its own weight of meat, eggs and other wholesome food. And thi claim has been proven by actual exoeriments in the following manner: A hardl boiled ogg cut Into small pieces was placed In a bottle containing wurm water heated to ninety-eight degrees (or blood heat), one of thee Tablets was then p,accd in the bottle and the proper tem perature maintained for three hours and a half, at the end of which time the egg was as completely digested as It would have boen In a healthy stomach. This experiment wa undertaken to demon strate that what It would do in the bot t'o it w ould lo do in the stomach, hence its unquestionable value in the crre of dvepcpsla and weak digestion. Very few peop'e aTe free from t-ome form of indi gestion but scarcely two will have the same svmntoms. Some will suffer most from distress after eating, bloating from gas in the stomach and bowels, others lnc acid dysnep-ia or heartburn, others pa'pltat on or headaches, sleeplessness, piins in chest and under shoulder blades, extjme nervousness as in nervous ds pepSu, but they all have same cause, failure to properly digest what is eaten. The stomach must have rest and assistance- and Stuart's Dysoepsia Tablets give it both, by diet1ng the food for It and in a short time It is restored to Its nor mal action and vigor At same time 1ho Tablets are so harmless that a child can take them with benefit. This new preparation has already made many as tonishing cures, as for instance, the fol lowing: After using only one. package of Etuart's Dyspepsia Tablets I have received pjch great and unexpected benent that I wish to express my sincere gratitude. In fact it has been six months ince I took the package and have net had one particle of distress er dlRlculty elnce. And ail th in the face of the fact that the best doc tors I consulted toM me mj case -was Chronic Dyspepsia and absolutely Incura ble as I had suffered twenty-five years. I distributed half a dosen packa?s Among my friend. here who are very anx ious to try thi remedy. Mrs. Sarah A. Skeeis. Lynville. Jasper Co..

Few things can be used to clean mat ting: salt and soda have been used, but experience has taught that the best way is to have the matting thoroughly swept, and then go over it with a solution of warm water with Gold Dust Washing Powder dissolved in it: It is best to use a woolen cloth; a tablespoonful of Gold Dust "Washing Powder to a quart of water is the proportion: wring the cloth almost dry and rub quickly, but the mo ment the water gets dirty, change it for fresh; follow the wet cloth with a dry one. This cleans perfectly. COMING LOCAL EVENTS. The Ladies' Aid society of the First Presbyterian church will meet In the church parlors at 2:30 this afternoon.

Its live stock sanitary commission has just issued the following bulletin bearing on this subject which Is especi ally important to all Wichita and south ern Kansas cattlemen who are constantly, shipping in cattle from the south: "Commencing November 1 and ending December 31, 1S99, no cattle shall be ad mitted into Kansas, or the Kansas City stock yards, except for immediate slaugh ter, from south of a line described in the governor's proclamation of February 25, 1899, which Is the same as the federal quarantine line, until after careful in spection by an agent appointed by this commission and found free from south ern cattle ticks (Boophilus Bovis) and re ceiving a permit from said Inspector set ting out these facts, a copy of such per mit must be attached to the stub of the waybill accompanying said cattle if they are shipped by rail, or carried by the owner or party in charge if they are driven In. All cattle shipped by rail shall be unloaded for inspection at points hereinafter named, should the Inspector deem it necessary for a more perfect ex amination. Section 2 Cattle may be shipped by rail through and across the state of Kansas into other states, but in snich cases there will be inspection fees charged, and if ticky, cars will be tagged "southern cat tle," and the cattle will be alolwed to go forward under the rules and regulations governing the movement and transporta tion of southern cattle; if not found tick they will go forward as natives. "Section 3 All movements of cattle not specifically set out in this bulletin shall be governed by the rules and regulations for the movement of cattle adopted April 23. 1S93.

There are also several hundred voters who have lived in Wichita for years, who will not be allowed to cast a ballot unless they go to the city clerk's office between now and next Friday night and register. You will perhaps read this notice and promise yourself you will go the first thing after dinner and register. After dinner you will have forgotten it or something will come up to prevent you. You ought to go and register right away. Why don't you? It is not only a privilege to vote but a duty. You can't vote without you reis ter.

Mr. Jacob Schweizer, that he had struck a zinc bonanza in the Joplin district. This will be great news to Jake's many friends in Kansa3 and Oklahoma. He had a mine at Joplin which had pinched out and Saturday as a forlorn hope, !he fired a blast, and the blast sent tumbling down great masses of zinc, glinting through its admixture of rosin chunks some of them weighing as much as one hundred pounds. It has proved a great strike and will doubtless make its owners rich. Jake Schweizer is a child of fortune. Starting in life in New Tork alone, a boy from Germany, he has tried many things, rfom tramping the deserts of Arizona a regular soldier, another time an Oklahoma town-builder, another time a Rough Rider, but no stroke of adversity and no hard experience has e cr been able to veto the j bnjad sml,e Qf goo1 naturCi whjch he naS always kept about him.

Wichita Musical Club. Mr? Beach MUSIC AND D.RAMA. Myles McCarthy, assisted by a com pany of uniform excellence, will present an Irish comedy drama at the Crawford theatre tomorrow night, and judging from the authenticated reports, the perform ance promises to be one of exceptional interest In more ways than one. The play in question Is entitled "Dear Hearts of 1 Ireland," and from that it can readily be understood to which class it rightfully belongs. Mr. McCarthy, while In a meas ure unknown to the theatre patrons hero about3, is nevertheless fami'lar with all who keep as It were a mental record of nrominent theatrical events, he having I scored heavily in other parts of the 1 amusement world, as a comedian of pro nounced methods and reasonable lorce, and as a vocalist of splendid attainments. He possesses a- voice of rare sweetness and knows exactly how to control It in a manner to command marked apprecia tion. One thing in Mr. McCarthy's favor is his disinclination to overdraw the char acter which seems to ftt his peculiar style to a positive nicety. He never descends to coarseness, and never alolws himself to overestimate his powers to entertain. t With such qualities and a really good play, together with clever people to assist him. it Is small .wonder he has firmly established himself as a prime favorite. The Ravs' "A Hot Old Time" In brand new suit is anoauaced at the Crawford theatre early In November. This j popular play is an organisation of cosa edy. novelty and beauty and scenic ef I fects rarely seen on th boards of the popular priced theatres, as tho talent em nioved. the costuming devise and the scenic environment required aaks it an expensive amcrsatioa. Ts .faiger dancers and comedians, And in tact, every member of the company is aa individual artist. Wherever this a: traction has been offered it has bees conceded to be the stroncest and e"mvermst fax tom- j e3V extravaganaa extant and has aJ-s-xy received an ovation Its seeetaltsts are brfirh'er and more unfeue and store orlg I inal than any competitors, Tns whole ensemble is rolossal in It zaacaHude.

The musical portion of the program is under the direction of the well known conductor Mr. Frank Hodges. The Baltimore "World: Frederick TVarde had every incentive to act his best at Ford's, Monday night, and In the pres ence of a distinguished audience, his por trayal of "Paul dl Novara" in Henry Guy Carleton's romantic Venetian drama, "The Lion's Mouth," lacked nothing to make it worthy of the occasion. The season's openingof Manager Ford's play house was in every way memorable; the curtain went up. and until the close of onQ tfae aud,ence wag absorbed ,n "Thfi t ATnntb fr -VVnrrfo ivn In splendid voice, the stage setting showed th& gnM& canaI Qf Vpnlce The second n, .h a-- curtain rose on the grounds of the doge's palace by moonlight, it was supero, tne audience applauded the beautiful picture enthusiastically. The play wont on, un folding Its romantic plot of love and hate in the 16th century. When the cur tain fell on the moonlit picture Mr. Wardo received an ovation. Three times he was called before the ourtain. "Speech! SpcecHi" cried the audience and the actor earnestly thanked them for their warm receatlon. That Mr Warde's performance was such a brill- iant success was due to his company as well as himself. Mrs. Minnie Tittell Biune's "Linora" was dramatlcall In tense, and Imbued with a tender, girlish sweetness. Charles D. Herman was ex cellent as the vengeful Francesco. The company, without an exception, played their roles with spirit and dramtic force. Mr. Warde is booked for an early ap pearance at the Crawford theatre. It is seldom that a metropolitan com pany visits us, complete and Just as it wa swhen winning Its laurels In the east When "Alabama" I1? played at the opera house Monday evening the company that will play this beautiful southern play will be exactly tho same as It was when it first made a hit In the drama three years ago. They carry all the original scenery, mechanical and electrical effects setting each act complete. The third act is said to bo -very beautiful. It represents a moonlight scene in a magnolia grove near an old bayou and as the curtain rises the scent of magnolia Is dispersed through out the house. All lovers of a perfect play, the purity of which has time and again teen endorsed by the clergy, should not fail to visit the Crawford Grand on Monday, October 20. There will be no advance In prices. Richards Pringle's Famous Georgia Mlsstrels embodies the biggest, brightest and best In this popular line of amuse ment. Every featuro presented Is original and up-to-date. Fifty well-known name appear on its roster; two big military bands furnish the choicest mualc for i's big free street parade: a well-trained orchestra of thirty pieces enpply the muslo for Its in-door performance.
