THE STORY OF A SIN.


There was change OF bill at the Paw
tucket Opera Houae last evening, and the
entertainment was I'm marked contrast to
that which so successfully opened the
season. But the contrast was only in the
character Of the performance, the quality,
though different, was OF the best.
The play OF last night, "The Story Of q
Sin," and which will be repeated this
evening, Is not intended to make any body
laugh, though 1t is unfortunately true
that some Of the audience did laugh, and
that at times when 1t would seem as IL
such thing were not only robable,
but Impossible. But the majority o. those
present were persons Of good senes, of In
telligence sufficient to understsnd the
fine points Of the story, and able to ap-
preciate the work OF the skillful players
who interpreted 1t and therefore they re-
ceived something which will crafty them

Held in the Ward Room
Of The First Ward.
SOME STIRRING SPEECHES


The proposed biennial elections amend
meDt was discussed last evening at pub.
lie meeting helc In the ward room of the
First Ward. There was not as large a
gathering az was expected, but those who
were there seemed to be deeply interested
In the coming election and all the phases
OF the addition to the Constitution. The
reason for the small attendance was ex.
planned by one OF the leaders by saying
that 1000 dodgers had been printed and
by some mistake were not distributed
and that may account for 1t, yet it was
pretty well known that there was to be
a meeting and the Democrats Of the ward
showed not little apathy and indiffer-
ence In not turning out.
Ex-Mayor Carroll called to order st S:15
o'clock and after commenting on the
small attendance said In part: I suppose
that those who have come here have come
to hear the Constitutional amendment
discussed. 1t seems curious that only the
Democratic papers of the State, and there
are only three OF them, have taken this
matter up. None of the Republic
papers have said a word. The Democratic
party believes in popular representation
and bas always been in favor of enlarging
the liberty and suffrages OF the people
The enemies.of the people, the Republican
party, mean to pass this amendment by
underhand methods and IL it passes 1t will
be long time before there Is a change.
The machinery OF the State is so clumsy
or so elaborate that before the people can
get around to vote on it again they will
have forgotten what this amendment is.
There has always been hitch OF some
kind In our legislation. 1t has been
patched up from time to time and this
amendment is a series of patches and the
people don't understand It. 1t means
away the power of the Governor and he
has very little now.
He can't even preside over the Senate
and all that will be left for him to do will
be to attend the State fairs In the Fall.
Governor Brown advocated that the Gov
ernor be allowed veto power. He was
too far advanced for tho party and they
dropped him. They were even afraid to
trust.al Governor elected by their own
party. It is simply this: A few men want
to run the State. They don'tswant Con-
stitutionali lisconvention where the best
minds OF the State would be brought to-
gether and draw up a modern Constitu.
tion. II this amendment passes we may
never get q Constitutional convention. In
Pawtucket you are now allowed to vote
for six representatives and one senator,
and II this passes you will be confined to
your ward and can only vote for one rep
resentative and one senator, and possibly
a representative at large. You never can
get control Of the city.
The Republican power Is In the country
towns and this amendment does not touch
the towns. 1t Is the cities they want to
muzzle. They are not honest about it or
they would include all, both cities and
towns.
He then introduced Hon. E. ID. McGuln-
ness OF Providence who spoke In part as
follows: We must begin tonight to SOW
the seeds that will bear fruit on Sept. 25.
1t Ia very serious question to decide and
requires serious thought. BY this amend.

ANOTHER BOND ISSUE.
General Belief That 1t Will Shortly
Occur Unless Congress Acts.


New York, Jan. 30-The continued
heavy Withdrawals of gold have
caused the general belief that a bond
issue will have to come very shortly
unless congress takes quick action ON
the proposition of the president for All
issue of three per cent. gold bonds.
1t was expected that the issue would
be made this week. but the president
decided to make one last appeal TO
congress for three per cent gold
bond before sacrificing the credit of
the government by the sale Of four or
five per cent. gold bonds.
II congress does not accomplish any
thing this week in the direction of
the presidents gold bond scheme 1t is
understood that s100, 900 four per
cent. bonds will be issued next Mon
day. or at all events before the close
Of the week. If the scheme should
De killed this week the issue may
come before next Monday.
Notwithstanding the denials of Au-
gust Belmont, 1t Is believed that he
will be at the head of a syndicate OF
foreign bankers which will take a huge
block Of the bonds. 1t is apparent that
q large portion of the issue must be
make any permanent gain in gold. and
In no other way can an effectual halt
be put upon the gold export movement
The withdrawal Of 500, 900 from
circulation will also cause an active
money market, and. in this way, add
to the check upon gold shipments.
