The opera house was crowded last even

Instrumental and vocal music of that
greatest of all modern musical prodigies.
Blind Boone. 1t is not too much to say
that this musical phenomenon, Blind
Boone, far exceeded the expectations of
all who heard him last night. Sightless
though he is, he plays the piano with the
skill and touch Of master. The music
of his si=htless soul evoked by his nimble
fingers has in it all the charm and sweet,
ness of one trained for years in the best
schools. He plays with such exquisite
grace that one can scarcely realize that he
has not been specially fitted by careful
study and long experience under compe-
tent tutors.

Third congressional district, which repre-

the following:
ResolUed. That we. as Republicans,

who is in favor of the present odious civil
service or its application in the distribu-

majority of the appointments are awarded
to young men fresh from schools and col
leges, while the active, intelligent, edu-
Gated and deserving men of our own
party are barred out on account Of age or
have failed to answer foolish questions
not pertinent to the service in which they
are seeking employment.
