"Glad thanks come to us by the hun
dred from the workingmen all over the
State that we keep open evenings"
Workingmen, we ask you if you be-
heve that single workingman in the
State has been guilty of sending such a
letter. IL the firm which makes the
statement will publish one letter of
thanks from a bona fide workingman in
this State giving name and re sidence of
this rara avis, we will gladly pay the
cost of publication. The honest worker
will not be found giving thanks to any
firm for breaking the written pledges
between them and their brother lner-
chants and acting contrary to them
selves and well-being. The workers
know their enemies and give neither
thanks nor patronage TO any firm for
depriving their brothers of the opportu-
nifty for physical, moral and intellectual
development, by robbing them of their
evenings at home.

War ON Theatre Posters.
BosToN, Nov. 29.-The war against
theatrical posters has taken on a new
feature.
Yesterday the newly appointed censors,
the license committee. notified Eugene
Tompkins, manager OF the Boston
Theatre, that he must remove large
poster displayed over the Washington
street entrance OF the theatre.
This morning he complied with the de-
mand, but the career OF the poster has
just begun.
Mr.. Tompkins proposes to hire Music
Hall and place the condemned sheet on
exhibition aud asks the public IL it CON
siders the sheet immoral or indecent. One
Of the funny features OF the entire
trouble is the poster itself. IL is not a
particularly fagrant offence, and not one
of the most outspoken OF the dozen or
more varieties of the theatre paper now
exhibited.
