Vacation (iranted.

Reverend Father Rabsteinek is
out for few weeks vacation, after
his many months of arduous labor in
this diocese, and it comming to St.
Adalbert's congregation that til e
reverend father might not return to
this parish, has created pr ofound
sensation and regret, and ut St. Adal-
bert's church, Sunday, resolutions
were passed urging the reverend
father to return after his vaca-
tion, and we believe Il memo
rial and set of resolutions were
prepared and signed by the congre-
CATION to be forwarded to the Right
Reverend Bishop Stanley, urging
that he retain Father Rabsteinek
here. THE TIMES was able to see
the first preamble of the memorial
which read as follows:
"To the Right Reverend Bishop
Stanley: (lst) 1t is with unusual re.
gret that we receive the intelligence
from our pastor, Father Rabstelnek,
that lie has what promises to be a
terminal leave of absence, and it is
with extreme grief that we ascertain
from him that he may not return to
this parish. Welove him and cherish
his labors, as you Right Reverend
Bishop yourself saw last fall. Not
only is he esteemed by us-his parish
children, but by citizens of Wahpe
ton, irrespective of creed"
And of course this clause is true
The reverend fathers congregation
thinks very much of him, and Wall
peton's citizens generally would re
gret his departure. THE TINE
hopes that Father Ral,stcinek vii
change his mind and remain Il

constantly to strengthen, and every
body ahould read an admirably illus
trated article on souvenir and his

of Peterson. The paper gives much
valuable information and there are
photographs of spoons from Christen-
dom to Turkey and Morocco, some of
them dating back to bygone cen
turies. Another attractive article is
that on "a Famous Japanese Painter
and his School, which contains Il
long series of quaint and most de.
lightful Japanese drawings. There
are other capital papers on miscel.

Lands For Sale.

S. II. Snyder and Judge Shippam
have joined forces to the extent Of
getting out printed matter advertising
the fact that they have IL fine list of
lands for sale, cheap. The truth is,
there are thousands of acres of land
in Richland county which may to-day
be purchased for only about half the
price being paid for lands farther
down the valley, to wit: $50 an acre,
and the chances are, the lands here
are better in every respect than Il
great proportion Of those, from the
very fact that the laEds here have not
been so closely sought. never having
had such facilities for advertising IN
this county, hence have not been so
closely culled.
Il you want any point on Richland
county real estate. drop Il line to
S. II. Snyder or Judge Shippam, Wah-
peton.

&c KING Solomon Show.

The people of Atlanta appear 80 be excited
aod divided by the King Solomon show
which is one Of the attractions secured by
the Piedmont Exposition Company. The
exposition does rot appear TO command
much attention. At least, very little is being
said about 1t in comparison with the talk
concerning the spectacular drama OF King
Solomon.
The question whether the drama is one
that the moral portion of the Atlanta people
/ would take pleasure in seeing is being dis
/ cussed. and it is pretty safe to say that the
/ discussion Will have the effect of increasing
King Solomon's audiences. IL is asserted
that a great many pretty girls will appear
in the show, and that they will not be over
burdened with clothes. Doubtless the girls
will look pretty whether they are or not.
Paint and powder will do wonders
in hiding their defects, and they will seem
to lie very near perfection in the eyes of
the average Atlanta young man and the
bald-headed fellows who will scramble for
the front seats.
After all, King Solomon is probably as
moral as any of the other purely spectacular
dramas that are seen upon the stage, and
the harm that will be received by those who
witness 1t will not be so great as to be par
tlcularly noticeable. Indeed, it is doubtful
If it Will disturb the consciences of any of
those who patronizs it.
But those who were led to believe that
King Solomon would be a free show have
real grievance. 1t seems that it was ad-
vertlsed that those who purchased exposi-
ton tickets would have the privilege of see
ing King Solomon in all his glory for moth
ing 1t turns out, however, that the ar
rangements are such that only those who
pay an extra quarter Of dollar will get a
view of it. Naturally there is good deal
of vigorous protesting, and it may be that
this extra quarter of a dollar is the founda-
tion of much of the talk about King Solo
mon being an immoral show.
And the members of the city council
have a grievance. They have been provided
with passes for only one day and they con-
fidently expected season tickets. They have
sent back the one day passes and have
virtually determined to pay their own way
and see King Solomon and mis- girls as often
as they please.
Between the prohibitionists who insist
that no intoxicants shall be sold on the ex-
hibition grounds, the very moral people
who object to King Solomon, and the mem
bers of the city council who want free
passes for every day of the show the expo
siion managers are having pretty rough
road to travel. But they are after the dol
lars and will get them.

The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1891-10-17

One of the most noticeable features Of the
present campaign in the eastern states is
the large number of gorgeous pictorial VIC
tories that the republican ne - spapers are
winning. As that is about all the satisf &C.
ton they are likely to get out Of the scuffle
it would DO very unkind 10 deprive them of
it. Their exoberant glee is amusing to the
public. A recent number the New York
Recorder contained drawing representing
Blaine and Fassett rugged out in tho fantastic
Garb Of a pair of medieval bandits and
aiming their swords at crouching tiger
designed to represent Tammany Hall. But
the beast has an ugly look on his feline Wis
age and doesn't appear to be half as much
alarmed as his attitude might suggest In
deed the brute looks quite capable Of cbew~
ing the bones OF both the aspiring hunters
on very slight provocation.

Out in Chicago an advertising agent hos
been brought up standing in court In an
interesting way. Publisher William d.
Boyce has brought suit for $4,000
damages in the Chicago circuit court
against George P. Rowells firm. They
publish in New York the american News-
paper Directory, which purports to give
the circulation of newspapers throughout
the country. Publisher Boyce says he went
to New York personally and presented
proof to George P. Rowell Of the weekly
circulation of his paper. Notwithstanding
his evidence to that effect he alleges that
the defendants rated his paper below the
actual circulation, ard added that they had
not received satisfactory information rela-
tive to the circulation thereof. This suit
will probably be watched with interest and
close attention by advertisers as we'll as
publishers all over the country. Many
ne spaper publishers have for years COM
planned that the directory in question did
injustice 70 them in its ratings of their cir
culAtloD
