That ever welcome little soubrette,
Lizzie Evans, will hold the boards at the
Academy OF Music Thursday night, pre-.
senting a comedy, new in this city, en-.
titled THE Little Blac ksmith" This
season Miss Evans has set aside her ex.
tensive repertury and devoted herself
solely TO one play and tho success thus
far has we'll warranted her good iudg-
ment in so doing. She has met with
unlimited praise by both press and pub
lie in her artistic work as Glen, the lit
tie blacksm and her success has Il.
nancially been most flattering. She
has, in addition to her new piece,
complete new company. She has add I'D
new and original songs, dancing, music
and specialties, and in carrying all Of
her:own special scenery she is enabled
to give production equal, If not SUI
perior, to any of its kind. She will in
troduce many novel and interesting
features during the performance, anu in
the first act she turns from red hot
piece of iron a com plete and artistically
made horse shoe. Miss Evans is well
known throughout the country as q
most pain stalking little artistic, and the
audience which will gather to greet her
here should BIO large and joyous one.

The Small Farm Idea.

No farms have succeeded SO well
as small farms. More money per acre
has been taken from them, and each
dollar represents greater profits.
kThis. state and county will never at
Etain a high degree of agricultural
prosperity until the small farm idea
nperineates the minds of onr land own
kers and farmers, Double the size of
your farms, not by adding more acres,
but by making each acre doubly pro
ductive. Sell off half your land If
necessary and put it on top the re-
manning half. You viii then make
more profit and do it with less out
lay. You will live more comfortably
and besides have less taxes to pay.

II is very seldom now that you see a
painter burn off old paint with spirit

few who stick TO the old method. The
sssiest way 10 clean paint off wood. or

pretty thickly in water and then apply
freely with brush. After short time

only little care is advisable, as the

Judge Rumsey's Decision Would Cause

The chief Republican argument against
the apportionment act is that the dIvi-
sion made by the legislature Is not fair.
But the lawmaking power, and the law
making power alone, is charged with
the duty of apportioning the state. The
constitution intends that the question of
fact involved i'm this task shall be de
cided by the legislature and the govern
erin other words by the political
power.
III the courts can step in for the pur-
pose of regulating the fairness of legis-
lators, why cannot they examine into all
acts Of the legislative or executive de-
partmentsy The constitution requires
that the several districts shall be AS near
ly as possible of equal population. hav-
ing due regard 10 the contiguity of ter
ritory and 10 the rules forbidding the
division of counties and providing that
each county except Franklin and Ham
ilton shall have one assemblyman.
If the courts can be asked TO perform
duty devolving on the legislature, or
to set aside an act of the legislature on
the ground that it involves an abuse of
discretion, "A wide political field is open
TO the judges not contemplated by the
constitution and dangerous 10 the com
