CHICAGO papers are devoting much
more attention to the agitation in favor
of good country roads than to the condi-
ton of the throroughtares in their own
city. which are in far worse condition
than the most ragged corduroy road in
the backwoods settlements. Between
the street railway, telegraph and gas
companies, the Chicago streets are in a
constant state of eruption. and it is haz.
ardous for even policemen to traverse
them after nightfall. Chicago should

BY AN edict of President Barrios. of
Guatemala, slavery has been abolished
in that country. 1t has been the custom
for the rich planters to seize upon poor
laborers, wherever they were found,
and compel service from them without
reward. This system possessed feat
ures far worse than African slavery as
it once existed in this country. and It's
prohibition obliterates the last vestige
of slavery authorized by law in Central
America.

IN THE THEATERS.
Downing as a knight of Pyth-

Downing as knight of Pyth-
Z las.
Damon and Pythias" as play ranks
very high, and as presented last night
at the Metropolitan opera house, with
the great Sir Knight, Robert Downing.
IN the title role. his charming wife,
Eugene Blair. as Galanthe. and Ed
mund Collier as Pythias. it was handled
in creditable manner.
The story is tolerabIy familiar to
theater-goers, and the play an old favor
lite. In the scene in the first act when
Damon Is condemned to death, Mr..
Downing acquits himself remarkably
we'll and in most trying part, While in
the last act, when Dionysius pardOns
and releases the broken hearted Damon,
Mr.. Downing rises to his opportunity
The play as a whole is full OF strong
situations and wonderful opportunities
for very superior acting.
Miss Blair, who, in every respect, Is
eminently fitted to portray such char
acter as the tried Galanthe, plays the
part III a way that wins the sympathy
and approval of her audience from the
beginning. Mr.. Collier. though par
ticularlY good in some parts,
is rather too robust in one
or two places; but he, as we'll as Mr..
Downing and Miss Blair, received sew
eral recalls.
There was quite large representation
of the members of the Knights of Pyth-
las in attendance at the performance,
who afterwards entertained Mr.. Down
ing at their rooms.
This afternoon the company will pre-
sent the romantic drama, Richard the
LionHearted." and this evening The
Gladiator" will be repeated.
There has been quite an unusual de-
mand for seats for The Crust of So
ciety," which will be presented at the
Metropolitan opera house the last three
nights and Saturday matinee of this
week, and there is no doubt but what
this much-hea play will be greeted
by large houses DIT every performance.

and telephoning, almost make distances

nience. while they keep the peace. They
make us all TO be- for practical purposes
close together, almost under one roof'
and face to face. Our well-furnished
business man is almost omnipresent. Stiil
we are not satisfied; we aim at yet fuller
intercourses and desire more satisfac-
tory responses And Psychology comes
in. announces itself as a practical and
familiar Art, and claims 10 read minds

Time comes up next for trial, and his
dominion and businesses are threatened
He stands in the way of progress A
thousand things he claims as belonging

get down and out, and yield to the ge-

investigate the ways and works Of
nature, and her products. And what
she has hitherto accomplished by the due

Practically the dethronenent of Time

THE CITY HALL CONTRACTS.

The Times feels that It has done a
public attention TO the way in which
the Committee on Streets thinks itself
authorized to give the city's money away
to wer-diggers, and the Committee on
Grounds and Buildings thinks itself au-
thorized to give il away TO those who
bid on furniture for the new City Hall.
The latter aroused so much discussion
that some of the Committee on Grounds
and Buildings have made public state
ments of the reasons that controlled
them, the substance of which reasons
are that they thought what was TO be
furnished by the higher bidders, to whom
they awarded the contracts, would give
the city better satisfaction on the whole
than what was to be furnished by the
lower bidders. This will not at all sat
isfy the people OF Richmond. Colonel
Cutshaw, whom every one trusts and who
is the skilled man in charge of the cree
mittee that he preferred what Mr.. Bowers
offered, and that what Mr.. Starke offer
ed was all that was required. These com
mitteemen can indulge in luxuries as
much as they please when buying furni-
ture for their own parlors, but when they
are spending the citys money the tax
payers want 1t spent as economically as
possible so long as the city gets what
answers her purpose. This Infamous
City Hall business has already brought
the city to a point where her credit is
seriously hurt. and che is unable TO
get money for the most necessary pur-
poses. Economy in public expenditures
is what the people want to hear OF now.
The taxpayers Of this city want to hear
their councilmen talk like Colonel VIII
liam +. Tanner. In giving the reasons for
his vote, this gentleman said:
My reason for voting for Bowers was
that he was The lowest bidder for the light
fixtures, and that Colonel Cutshaw said
that he had the best designs. | voted for
StaTke because he was $500 lower than
Waddcy for the metallic files. and be-
cause the Engineer stated that there
was no material difference In the goods
AS 10 the furniture, / cast my vote for
Savage & Holms. the lowest bidders
as / considered their material as good
as the city could afford to buy at this
time.
Colonel Tanner Is perfectly right. Our
present financial condition does not war
rant us in buying magnificent and gaudy
furniture Plain furniture that Colonel
Cutshaw thinks good enough for the City
Hall is good enough for US plain folks,
who want our money saved much more
than we want fine displays.
We want more men like Colonel VIII
liam f. Tanner to make the city con-
tracts.
