| The MetropoHtans az peared at Turner
Hall Monday evening to a large audi
ence of appreciative people. The enter
tainment was of high class order and
In Pygmalion and Galatea the individu-
al singing and the quartettes were by tar
the best ever heard here. Miss Wolcott
has beautiful soprano voice, Of great
range and exceeding sweetness. Miss
MacNeill as the contralto proved equal
~ popular,and the stage presence Of both
was beyond criticism. Mr.. Abdill, the
tenor, as Pygmalion, appealed strongly
to the admiration of the audience and re-
celved it in repeated applause. His
voice is not especially high, but it is.
clear, beautiful and under wonderful
control. Donaldson seemed to be sort
of hero during the entire evening. Few
comedians have appeared here who furn-
ished more amusement than did he as
Midas, and as vocalist he achieved Il
triumph. The entertainment as whole
was rare treat.
Interest in the public speaking con-
test at Union Hall on Friday evening

No man in this state needs praise less
than VIM. Henry Eustis Of Minneapolis.
for he always manages to make his own
acts speak louder than the words Of 9TH
ers. But we cannot avoid this week re-
ferring to his conduct in the Cling murder
case and commencing him in the strong
est manner. Mr.. Eust1s is man who
believes that sometimes it is necessary
/ for the protection of society and to serve
the ends of justice to step beyond the
technicalities of law and employ it as it
is found in common sense. He has re-
ceived criticism whenever he has done
this, but the results have always proved
while his critics didn't. Under the law
Harry Hayward, who has since been
proven one of the most cold blooded
williams and hypocrites in criminal his
tory, could never have been detained
under lock and key without formal
arrest. Eustis however disregard
ed the weakness of the law and insisted
| that the putting ofHayward in the sweat
box was the only method of arriving at
clue to mystery that every body adj
mitted would never he solved. What is
| the resulta Eustis came to the conclu-
sion that he was guilty. He released him
under the surveillance of detectives. He
was watched night and day and inside
/ 100 hours from the time Of the commits
sion Of the awful deed he was arrested
