We call especial attention to Captain
Tolley's card in this issue. He certain
" has reasonable grounds to complain
about the other candidates failing to
oin him in discussion, but acts wisely
IN agreeing to submit his claims before
the convention, even if it was, as he
tanks, called too soon. Capt. Tolley
has withdrawn his appointments for
this county, but will address our people
At the Courthouse on the 4th Monday in
this month.

The VAIue of Shade Trees.

That our ancestors emanted from the
shades Of tree land is one of the few
points on which Moses and Darwin agree,
and il seems hardly probable that the de-
scendants Of frost race should be dam
aged BY a little tree shade, especially
where that shade Is confined to the SIX
wsrmest months in the year. After 0cto-
Der, when sunshine becomes preferable TO
the shade, trees do not obstruct the rays
Of the sun. They merely moderate It's
summer glare, and at noon offer the best
possible refuge from the breeding heat
No human continuance can rival the anti
csloric arrangements of leafy canopy
free access to all the winds of heaven, and
q roof impervious not only to the direct
light Of the suns rays, but also TO their
warmth, which Is felt through single roof
as plainly as through a fimsy sunshade.
But shade tree, with its hundred strata
Of light absorbing leaves, interposes an
efectual barrier to the hottest sun; and,
moreover, plants have direct refrigerat-
ing influence, analogous to that Of animal
bodies In generating warmth. Even under
the blazing sun the juice Of orange, water
melons, apples, etc, Is from ten to fifteen
degrees colder than that Of stagnant water
and on cloudy summer days the air of {
treeleSs district is considerably warmer
than the atmosphere of shady forest OF
sunny dsys.-LiPPsseott Magazine.

"Sibersa Repeated at Powers Next
Weeks Attractions.

The repetition Of ''Siberia" az Powers last
night drew forth much larger audience
than on Wednesday evening. The play
moved very smoothly, and the company
seemed To infuse more vim IN their work.
Mr.. Lawrence's Nic0tf was noticeable for
more warmth and feeling Therefore, the
good impression OF the night previous was
not only strengthened, bat il proved the
truth of the argument which has been adj
yanced time and again, that an actor must
cast aside his individual characteristics and
thoughts entirely, and feel every sentiment
of the lines he utters. This comment is true
In the NlcOt of Mr.. Lawrence The other
characters mentioned in yesterdays issue
were just as perfect, as they left nothing un-
done, while the ensemble moved with per-
feet cadence. No lover of strong drama
with thrilling climaxes, and stage mount
ing surprising anything that has been seen
here. should miss seeing Siberia" which
will be repeated tonight and tomorrow
night.
The Georgia Wonder will appear at Red
mond's next Sunday evening. Her per-
formances have created so much amazement
throughout the country, and the scientists
have been baffied in their endeavors to ex-
plain and cause for her wonderful power.
The Toledo Telegram had the following con-
cerning her performance In that city:
The Georgia Wonder appeared last even
ing at Wheeler's to good house, and gave
a wonderful performance. The lady Is deli-
cately built and quite handsome. Umbrellas
held in the hands of strong men were twisted
out of shape by the lady simply touching the
ends of her fingers against them. Seven
men could not put a chair to the floor, the
lady simply placing the palms of her hands
against it, and many other marvellous feats.
This is food for reflection for the serious,
thinking public, and to others source of
intense interest. We can assure the lady a
full house whenever she visits Toledo again.
Aimee, the bright sparkling opera bouffe
soubrette, will appear at Redmond's Opera
House next Monday and Tuesday evenings
in an English comedy entitled ''Mam'zelle. "
OF her appearance in Chicago this week, the
Times of that city said:
| Persons who are familiar with Aimee in
/ French opera were delighted with her spark
ling performance in this play. Her English,
| in the first place, is much better than might
| have been expected. Every word can be
distinctly understood, and the little pecu-
liarities in accent and articulation give it a
charming piquancy. She was not less al
home the piece, apparently, than she Is in
''Olivette," Mime. Angot," or any other OF
the French opera in which she has been
seen for years. There was the same viva
city, effervescent drollery, and originality OF
expression that have made her opera bouffe
performances so charming. The audience
was completely captivated.

THE SCHUBERT CLUB.
An Overlooking Hall and an Excellent
Entertainment.

The Schubert Club has every reason to
congratulate itself upon the results of its
first public concert, given last night in Ar
mory hall ON Ionia street. Fully seven
hundred people were present and many
turned regretfully away at the door, when
they saw standing room at a premium in
side. Although organized about year, it is
but recently that articles of association were
filed, incorporating it as musical associa-
tion. 1t is to the credit of the club, and a
feature that augurs well for continued sue
cess, that it did not at once rush into the
public's arms, seeking laurels before
proper preparation entitled them to such re-
wards. The program last night and the
manner of its rendition and reception by the
audience, proved that the policy the club
adopted at its inception is the proper one,
and the Schubert can feel assured that
among musical clubs it need not fear for
fair share of public favor and true apprecia-
ton. The following was the order of exer-
cises at the musicale" with the addition of

In these days Of progress there is De-
mand for better means Of illumination
than ever before. The dazzling briiiaancy
of the electric hight makes our common
kerosene lamps as dim as tallow dips in
the comparison This demand has been
fully met by the introduction Of the Sun
Lamps. They are necessarily made Of
metal because the draft or chimney ex-
tends down through the center of the
lamp. The wicks are five inches wide and
give alight of forty five candle power, equal
to three gas burners These lamps were
brought oGt al the close of last season, bat
the price was so high--S6 eaeh-but few were
sold. Owing 10 the enormous demand which
has sprung up, they are now produced at a
price within the reach of all, and sold for So
in brass and $3.50 IN nickel. complete with
ten inch porcelain shade. To persons trou-
bled with weak eyes or those who desire 10
preserve their eyesight by means of good
light, the Sun Lamp will prove blessing.
The New Styles of Hanging Lamps are
and trimmed with cut glass prisms and dec
Grated shades. The dome-shaped shades
look the best, but We imagine the angle of
reflection from the cone shape Is best for
throwing light down. These lamps are also
much cheaper than last year. They are now
sold at from So to 81 each. Fine table
lamps are furnished with duplex or two
wick burners, giving double the light of the
single wick burners. There are many styles
of these lamps on exhibition, including solid
bronze and the popular hammered brass.
For information received thanks are due

"A Plan for Charity"

To the Editor of the MORNING TELEGRAM:
On reading the article headed as above,
an idea suggested itself as easy and practi-
cable. Hundreds of generous hearts would
gladly respond if a simple system could be
arranged. How would the installment plan
work? Let committee be appointed, each
member to solicit certain number of SUBJ
scribers, who would pay each month on a
certain day whatever trifie they desired, the
largest amount to be not over $1.00 per
month"; so that all might contribute, the col
lector to turn the money in to the general
fund, receipt being given to each subscrib-
er to the amount of his or her charity. The
writer will gladly subscribe to the fund and
work to obtain subscribers if the plan meets
with approval. X.
