raally true that Mr.. Harrison, the republi.

this section lad been given to understand by
outside political coaches that Mr.. Har-
rison was actually one of their race, and if
they all voted for him our next President
could not fail to be negro. The unsophis-
ticated darkey was amazed to learn that

Hamlet" Produced by Ciprico
and His Glass of Tragedians.

The cool auditorium of the Grand
opera house was well filled last night
notwithstanding the warm weather, the
event being the production of "Ham-
LETT by the tragedian George NJ. Clprico,
supported by the pupils of his elocution
class. The production last night ran
very smoothly, the various parts having
been assigned with skill and the en-
semble was admirably carried out. The
performance for an amateur one was
away above the average. and some of
the actors deserve considerable praise
for their rendition of Mr.. CipricO's
Hamlet" The conception is of the
Fechter order, and the resonant read
ing and graceful posing of Mr.. Ciprico
won hearty applause. Mr.. CipricO was
at home in the role and rendered the
part with all the fervor of Rossi. The
stage management was complete. the
costumes appropriate and beautiful and
the singing of the madrigal boys at
the grave of Ophelia, quite a feature.
The floral tributrs were many and costly.
Much credit is due to Mr.. Ciprico for
the admirable production of such a
heavy piece. Hamlet will be rope ated
tomorrow night. A great number of
society people occupied boxes and seats.

Schedule of the Iowa Commits
SiOnerS.
Special to the Globe.
Dies MONIES, To-, June 14.-The Iowa
board of railway commissions to-day
gave notice that they have prepared a
schedule of reasonable maximum rates
for traffic in Iowa, together with ga clas-
sificatiOn of freight, the same to go into
effect on the 2Sth inst. Under the
schedule the roads are divided into
three classes. The first class roads are
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, the
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific, the Chi
cagO q Northwestern, the Chicago, Min
neapOlis & Omaha and the Chicago, st.
Paul & Kansas City. Those in the sec
ond class are the Chicago, Milwaukee q
st. Paul, the Burlington. Cedar Rapids
q Iowa, the Central of Iowa and the
Illinois Central, all other roads being
third class. The schedule of rates is
from 25 to 40 per cent below the Illinois
commissioners tariff. 1t is substan-
TALLY the same as submitted to the rep
resentatives of the roads in Chicago re-
Gently. Railway managers generally
are Of the opinion that compliance with
the new rates will necessitate losing
business and that the weaker lines will
be forced into bankruptcy.

THE RAILROAD WORLD.
COMPLETION ASSURED.

The Northern Pacific Will Put Up
the Cash to Build the Missing
Link.
Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, Man., June 14.-Arrange-
ments have been made by the local gov
ernment with the Manitoba & North
western and Northern Pacific people.
by which Macarthur, of Winnipeg, and
his associates will build the link be-
tween here and Portage, distance OF
sixty miles. Hon. Mr.. Martin, railway
commissioner, being asked about the
matter, said: cit was not as yet def
nitely settled, but was so very near it
that it was no joke. The fact that Mr..
Young. chief engineer of the Northern
Pacific, and Mr.. Oaks private secretary
have been for couple of days looking
over the line and negotiating" is a
very suspicious circumstance. A pri-
waite tip from the government goes to
show the matter was settled tonight.
The Northern Pacific will put up the
money for the track, and will operate
the line in connection with the Red
River Valley railway. The link to Rat
Portage will form connection with the
Manitoba and Northwestern for $50
miles, and afford complete competition
with the Canadian Pacific railway
throughout the province.
