The BIZ GU.

The stock company season draws to a
close at the Bijou. This week will
present the last appearance of Jacob
Lifts popular players, for the summer
dramatic departure. An excellent play
has been selected and the production
will bear the stamp Of merit. "Ticket
of Leave Man" will be the attraction.
This sterling old play, written by Tom
Taylor. presents many interesting fea-
lures. Like all OF the old plays this one
has successes, great casts have appeared
in the drama and theatre g0ers were
wont to greet an announcement of the
play with much pleasure. ''Ticket of
Leave Man" is strong plav. 1t is we'll
defined and finds a way for much decid-
ed interest. The story tells a tale OF
young man, who having made one false
step on the road to crime t1i9s to break
away from it and become an honest
man. Cruel, wicked companions
conspire his ruin and seeks to
again lead him into paths of crime.
The battle against the Vaccinations OF
these villains forms the essential por-
ton Of the story on which the play is
founded. The play is rich In sensation
al features and introduces slum scene
and an ATTEMPT at robbery. Much To-
terest centers on the character Of Bob
Briefly, the poor young mechanic, whose
heroic struggles presents many interest
ing pictures. The play will be excellent
" staged and the STOCK company will
ably present the play. The CASE is a
strong one and iocludes Harry Maia-
hall as Bob Brierly, Jessaline Rodgers
as Sam Willoughby and a supporting
company of excellent merit.

A. T. AnkenY, president of the board
of education of Minneapolis, and one OF
the prominent Democrats Of Minnesota,
will start for the East today. He goes
to attend the meeting Of the executive
committee Of the National Association
of Democratic clubs, which has been
called to meet in New York On Tues
day next, the 18th lust. The object OF
the meeting is understood to be out
liulng of plans for an organization OF
clubs in Minnesota, the Dakotas and
Iowa, where a vigorous campaign is to
be conducted. The national associa-
ton was formed by a convention OF
active Democrats from all over the
country that met on July 4. 1888. The
first Minnesota member of the executive
committee was Aid. J. G. Haynes. He
was also elected president Of STAGE as
soclation which existed in Minnesota a
few years ago. The president OF the
national association is Chancey F.
Black, of Pennsylvania. Senator Will
liam l.. Wilson is chairman of the
executive committee. Senator Wilson
was in Minneapolis last winter and
enthused the local Democracy with his
presence and vigorous talks. He in
stituted clubs in most of the Western
states, and now it is claimed that nearly
every state in the Union has it's club
organization of some kind. Mr.. An.
keny said he supposed the present club
movement in Minnesota, of which G. NJ.
Foote is the president, will be recog'
nized as the Minnesota association of
clubs. Mrs. Ankeny will accompany
her husband. They will visit Newport,
r. L, where Mrs. Ankeny's brother,
Lisut. Moore, is commandment of the
naval station. They expect to be gone
about month.

Reporter-Have you had from Per
sonal intercourse with the people of
your State good opportunity of ascer-
taining their feelings on the present
crisis ia ireland?
Yes, I have, and not only with the
people of my own state, but with the
people of several other states as well.
Reporter-W hat are their feelings?
The feelings of SO percent of the Irish
American people, as near IS I can est
mate, are against the continuance O.

political grounds; while the American
people, the German American, Scandi-
navian~ American, and French Ameri-

withstandiug the reports of the re-
turned Parnelllte ENJOYS. What these
gentlemen say Of their successful mis-
sion, should be taken with a large
quantity of salt. Their subscription
list, if published. will tell the true
tale.
Reporter-How do things here COM
pare with things in America?
My dear sir, it is unjust to draw any
comparison between prosperous, self
governing America, and poor, Saxon
ridden Ireland. Give Ireland several
years of self government before you
institute comparison between it and
any free country. Ireland is extremely
poor in everything, and will remain so
until you get rid of alien rule, land
lordism, and British manufactures, and
manage your own affairs, own your
own land, and have your own industries
as we have over there. ireland at pre-
sent is fine country for John Bull, but
q miserable country for Paddy.

About another month.

the men in the team that will visit

yet some Of our boys have exceeding
ly large and "strong" feet and we
hope to win. The boys who are in
the team have been excused from
drill.
We are glad to see such an inter
est taken in the lecture course. If
there are any young ladies in the
town who are not engaged, if they
will hand their names to the lecture
committee they will be provided
with escorts. The supply has not
been equal to the demand SO far.
