Charles E. Schillings Ministries, who
appear at Lighthouse theater next
Wednesday evening, are very highly
spoken of by the press throughout the
country. The following is from the
Daily Journal, Dayton, Ohio:
Before eight o'clock last evening
every seat in the balcony and the gal,
lery of the Grand was sold and nearly
the entire floor was taken by the time
the curtain rose for the performance
given by Cbas. e. Schilling's min
strels. The performance was by far
the best given by any minstrel COM
pany in this city for a long time, and
the audience was kept In roars of
laughter by the sidesplitting jokes OF
the funny men. The stage settings
were elaborate, the costumes gorgeous,
and the tout ensemble made most
pleasing effect. As a company of mirth.
provoking comedians the Ministries are
success, and all who witnessed the
performance last night were well
pleased.

NOTES OF THE LOBBY
Ex-Acting Governor Laughton is
smoking brierwood pipe this session
instead of Key West cigars. He was
threatened with fit of apoplexy when
he learned that the Ant-Pinkerton
bill, which he vetoed, would probably
pass at this session. He is a member
of 1.-THE Third House." and author of
the statement that "a public trust is a
private steal"
Governor Massey is governor of 1.-THE
Third House." He recently hired Lee
Fairchild to write a message, which
was read from the stairs Of the Olym-
pia hotel. Governor Massey recon-
mended, among other things, the APP
pOintment of a minister to Bolivia who
was willing to visit that country.
Senator Frank Richards is one of
the most eagerly sought after of any of
the members. From the moment he
makes his appearance in the rotunda
of the hotel he is button-holed, and is
kept answering questions as long as he
remains. He has made many friends
by his courteous demeanor, and is one
of the hardest workers i'm the senate.
A woman book agent made her ap-
pearance in the corridors of the hotel
one evening recently, and the hotel
office was deserted within five minutes
thereafter.
Ed. Cowan, the newspaper cores
pondent who followed Blaine over
Europe, and was at one time employed
on the London edition of the New
York Herald, is familiar figure in the
hotel lobby. He is here managing
Erastus Brainerd, who is giving daily
benefits, ostensibly in the interest, but
in reality to the detriment of Senator
Allen.
d. A. Mckenzie, deputy collector of
customs at Seattle, is working harder
for the election of Allen than he ever
worked before in his life. Mckenzie
and Grant are handling some of the
members in the same manner as they
would contraband Cinnamon. 1t is an
open secret that any man who does
not vote for Allen will be deported
from Seattle.
Judge Turner is in the lobby much
of his time. There is always quizzl-
cal smile on his countenance, and he
bears evidence of having healthy ap-
nptitp
