It is really strife between the American Railway union and the work men who did not join that organization. The trouble arose over the appointment of Theo Ropde as chairman of the relief com. mittee. McGuire, secretary of the com mittee, claims that Eopde was not regularly appointed; that his authority to serve came from J. w. Heath cote and R. W. Brown, the leaders of the central committee, who had charge of re- lief matters. It iE further said that the members of the American Railway union seek to gain control of the diBtri button of relief in order that nothing but union men may receive the benefit of it.

Patti Rosa's "Miss Dixie"

Patti Rosa's new play. Miss Dixie. :"
which will be seen at the Seattle theafer
next Tuesday night. has caught popular fa-
vor and is serving to keep the popular little
eomedienne intrenched in the good graces
Of the theater- going public. A critic who
sat In judgment on the FIRST performance
OF this comedy, said:
Each member of the audience felt as If
he or she were a juror TO sit in Judgment
on the piece. as il was its initial perform
ance. The play had been carefully re-
hearsed and went along smoothly but
tamely for the first half hour. After that
the actors seemed to warm up. and before
the second act was half through the con-
tinuous applause and laughter showed
that Miss Dixie had caught on and was a
success. AT the end OF the second act
Patti Rosa was called before the curtain.
Patti Rosa appears TO improve from
year to year. she is q progressive little
creature. and is now a sort of combination
of Lolita and Nellie McHenry. The new
est character in the play is Prof Pad
dieoffski, played by Bert Coote. This is
an original conception by the author,
Charles T. Vincent, and the one that
stirs the mirth of the dullest spectator.
The farce is loaded down with pretty lii
tie songs, which in themselves would
make much duiler piece success. Patti
Rosa will sing her greatest vocal hit,

passes as an iuducement to secure traffic,

This Is to conform with the apti-pass

DICKSON MAKES A SPEECH.
Speech Making One of His Fads-The Play
Not Very Popular


It was a little hard to like Charles
Dickson and his company in "a jolly
Good Fellow last night, because the
Grand was 80 cold that it left little room
in the mind of the spectator for the con-
temptation of anything else.
The audience was not a particularly
large one, though the theater was two
thirds full.
There are a great many things about
DicksOn'5 new play that the people do
not like or at least that they did not like
last night. There is a sort of blending
Of comedy and pathos in places that
seems a little out Of taste.
Dickson is a good actor those who
have seen him in s'Incog" viii attest that
but he is a victim of the old idea that
has delayed the great success of SO many
great actors, that he can play something
"Detter." BY better is meant something
that he can't play at all Dickson him
self knows that every good comedian
has been held back from his later tri-
umphs by the ambition to play tragedy.
Dickson's face and eyes are out of place
in tragedy or melodrama. A touch of it
here and there may do, but that would
be plenty Dickson may have soul for
melodrama but he must get new face.
Comedy alone IS his forte and comedy he
must stick to.
His wife IN the part of "MargOt" was all
that could be desired. 1t was refreshing.
Actors wives get into the cast as a gen
eral thing because they are actors wives.
Gertrude Witty as the musical crank,
was certainly up to the part Elizabeth
Leslie as the adventures was fairly
good
In justice to Manager Newman, be it
said that the cold snap burst the water
pipes and left the heating boiler without
water until it could be fixed late in the
evening. It will be all right tonight.
ssC harley Dickson, as his friends call
him. has lately acquired considerable
reputation as a before urtain talker
and when the audience called him out
last night after the close of the third act
he took occasion to further augment it
with a very pretty speech The average
actor hasn't any words of his own at all.
Il want to thank yon, my friends, for
the reception this evening"" he said; Il
call you my friends because you have
evidenced it by your applause and
would be ungrateful churl indeed
did 1 not acknowledge the kindness
after you have given me the opportun-
ity.
s'You have noticed. no doubt. that it is
very cold this evening. An accident has
happened to the heating apparatus and
it is not the arrangements fault. / have
caught cold already and cannot sing the
two songs that were on my bill for to-
night. There is a terrible draught on
the stage. See pointing to the light
curtains waving at center entrance( i hat
is about the only thing that seems to
draw here this evening"
Mr.. Dickson then eulogized Mr.. Robson
very heartily aud begged the audience
not to tell Mr.. Robson about it
81 viii visit you every year If you can
stand me that often" said Mr.. Dickson in
conclusion and retired amid cheers and
laughter.

ROCK ISLAND IRATE.
Does Not Like the Way the Santa
Fe Was Assessed
4 ROCK ISLAND OFFICIAL TALKS.

says There Was = Deal With the
AudItor'm once - Other Railroad
News
After a great deal or delay the official
publication in bo0k-form Of the railroad
assessment for the year 1894. has been
issued from the state printers. There
are numerous reasons advanced for the
delay, but the one generally accepted is
that il was held back as undesirable
campaign literature. As a general rule
the assessme nts are given out in full in
the summer when the assessment Is
made The report shows that the rail-
road assessment IS decreased over 1893
by about $2O0O.000. The decrease, how
ever, is not evenly distributed among
the railroads of the state, the
Santa Fe got $1,T50,OOO Of it.
A prominent Rock Island officer says
regarding the assessment II have re-
Gently learned from a reliab bic source all
the particulars Of how the Santa Re got
this big reduction. 1 won't tell it all now,
but / will say this much, that it was
straig ht-out deal between the Santa Fe
people and the auditors Office The
auditors Office would have done more for
the Santa Fe if it could, and it was the
agreement that the assessment was to be
again reduced in case they were re-
elected. The auditors Office named the
terms and got them
before the assessment was made
called at the auditors office and said l
hoped merely for fair assess ent Mr..
Prather said TO me: If there is any re-
duction at all your road viii get its share
of it, l repliedthat we were entitled to
fair treatment as we paid every cent of
our taxes in Kansas last year in cash,
without compromising or kicking. When
our assessment was first made it was in
creased $4,000 I made a strong pro-
test and managed to get it back to about
the same figure it was two years ago"
