YANKEE SCHEME.
The Board Of Trade May Adver
: IT, tise the Town. 9AS-'-1 =

tise the Town.
John Gilman, gentleman filling
every requisite in the makeup of the
ideal Yankee, was yesterday morning
given five minutes by the board of
trade to explain to that august body a
title scheme of his own for a railroad
Industrial exhibit. Mr.. John Gilman
is from Worcester, Mass, and
he grabbed his FIVE minutes
by the first second and filled
each individual minute of it so full of
talk that when he had closed the
prominent citizensN of the board of
trade felt as though they had received
the contents of an hours address. This
Yankees scheme is for all the prOmi-
nent cities of the United States to fit a
car with their peculiar products. The
train will start from some place in the
far West in short time, will be added
to, car at time, on its journey east
ward, stopping at all available points
along the route until it reaches Mime
apolis next June. from here it will go
to Chicago, and on East through the
prominent Eastern cities, arriving COM
:plete at Washington.
The scheme is to send agents ahead
of the train to get up cattle and horse
shows at the towns in which the train
exhibit is made. Admission will be
charged to these and premiums given.
The train will form the principal attrac-
ton, however. The cities represented
in the train will in this way receive q
wide advertisement. Every place that
MIR. Gilman has proposed the scheme so
far, except at St. Paul, the cars have
been provided, and Duluth. Marquette,
Sioux City. Omaha and North Dakota
are on the list. The board of trade ap-
pointed committee to investigate the
matter.

AFTER ALLIsoN's SCALP.

The labor organizations in Iowa have
taken the field against Senator ALI
SON. Their grievances and grounds of
opposition are elaborated over an area
sufficient for the framework of large
party. The gist of their Indictment is
that in his public career of quarter of
century he has constantly been the
servitor of corporations. combinations,
trusts, monopolies, and in the interest of
favored classes as against the many.
Aside from the length of his service it
is not seen that he stands apart from
his chief party associates in his aetivi-
ties and operations in official life. The
Cedar Rapids Gazette, speaking in the
interest of the Republican party, re-
joiees in this movement of the labor ele-
ments. and expresses confidence that the
new designation of the senator will be
DENNIS. 1t asserts that majority of
the candidates for the legislature in
structed for ALLISON were defeated, and
in many instances because they were so
instructed. In its view the fate of the
gentleman is sealed. The names
of various other gentlemen are can
yassed, and the prediction hazarded

AMUSr.hi k,NTS.

In considering war drama it is es-
sential that the impulses of patriotism
and the inborn appreciation of military
pOmp and circumstances should not be
COMPOUNDED with the intrinsic merit of
the play. 1t must be regarded calmly
from the standpoint Of abstract criti-
cism, irrespective of the superficial
emotions likely to be stirred up.
Marching Through Georgia" as a song
contains but very little artistic compo-
sitiOn from a musical standpoint, but
let it be sung in the presence of lot Of
veterans. or where war incidents are
often related, and the associations
with the melody will cause every nerve
to vibrate with what might be called ex
arisite painful recollections. A canvas
that pictures the story of Atlanta. and
even the crippled veteran hobbling
through the streets, is likely to stir a
food of tender memories in the hearts
attuned to the music Of the
Union. Perhaps for these reasons
to some extent William Gillette's
Held by the Enemy" which was pre-
scented at the Grand last night,
owes some of its brilliant success.
But it is a great play aside
from its patriotic sentiment. One
remarkable thing aboutthe performance
is that it does not appeal to sectional
prejudice, but the nobility of nature in
the soldier in gray is as roundIy APP
plauded as the s'bOy in blue" and there
is sparkling vein of comedy running
through the play that is seldom equaled
in American dramas. The company
which presented ''Held by the Enemy"
last night is most evenly balanced and
excellent one. Especially is this true of
the gentlemen who played Maj. Gen.
Stamburg, Col. Prescott and Lieut..
Hayne. The ladies were excep-
tiOnally clever, and the gOod-Sized
audience highly appreciated the entire
company's efforts. The same bill will
continue tonight and tomorrow night,
and should be witnessed by all who
hold in their hearts memories of the
late conflict between the North and
South.

the zest of this once popular comedy
has been lost owing to the lar
ceny of many of its best feat
ures by other comedy companies.
And, like Uncle Toms Cabin" the
play does not improve with age. Mr..
Connolly is an actor of some merit, and
Miss Lucy Dodge is a charming sou
brette, but exhibits no particular merit
until her speciality parts in the last act.
The whole company is composed of
speciality people, and the show fairly
enjoyable throughout. The audience
comfortably filled the house.
