TAX THEM HARD.
The Gay and Festive Hot Springs
Drummer Should be Made
To Contribute.

Since large towns and cities in
Arkansas have commenced to wage
war on the Hot Springs drummer,
he has made himself scarce and is
looking for "new fields and pas
lures green" in which to ply his
vocation, We have several of them
here we learn who make it a bust
ness to watch all trains and find
those bound for the Springs and
ticket them to some particular
doctor or hotel at these Springs.
Hot Springs has suffered much
from these drummers because they
generally are in the employ Of
quack doctors and second hand
"hasheries," and after the victim
is roped and gets into the hands of
the quack and the bad food given
him, he is prepared to cuss Hot
Springs the balance of his life. It
is because of this that Hot Springs
is now waging war on this class,
and they have asked all cities and
towns to help them run the drum
mers out of business.
Little Rock came nobly to the
front and passed an ordinance that
these drummers in that city must
procure a license and also a badge
with the hotel and doctors name
plainly engraved or painted on it
and keep it in sight at all times
when plying their vocation. Tex
arkana should do the same thing
and thereby derive a revenue and
at the same time help make a fight
on this class of people who do the
travelling public an injury instead
Of Z beuelit, Let both sides of the
city council take up this matter
and put an ordinance through.

THE ADMINISTRATION PRO.
GRAMME.

In a recent interview Secretary
Carlisle threw down the guage of
battle to bimetallists in the frank
avowal that the Federal administra-
ton has already gone to work to
control the next Democratic ma
tiona. convention in favor of the
gold standard. The Cincinnati En-
quirer thus comments on this sig
niticant statement;
Secretary Carlisle must have
been in an unusually frank and
communicative mood when the in
terview at Marion, Mass, already
published in this paper, was obtain
ed. His discussion OF the questions
which might come under Demo
cratic consideration, and of posi-
bilities of the future treatment of
the income tax question, were un-
like the man as the public has
known him, For example, he said;
"The silver advocates will have to
make their fight individually or out
side of the Democratic party be-
hind them, and they know it, and
all the world knows II.
"When asked what would become
of such Democratic leaders as
Blackburn, Harris, Morgan and
Pugh, Mr., Carlisle said We'll,
that concerns themselves more
than anybody else, Our efforts
from this day on to the meeting Of
the Democratic national conven-
tion will be directed to seeing that
none but sound money delegates
are sent to that convention,
He means gold men, Of course,
for in another part of the inter
view he declares firmly and enthu-
siastically for a gold basis. This
relegation of eminent Democratic
leaders to the woods, for a differ
ence Of opinion on a single public
question: is so directly opposed to
the well known conservatism and
party regularity of the distinguish
ed Secretary of the Treasury that
If the interview had not been well
authenticated we would be impelled
to look upon 1t as a work of repor-
torial fancy"

THE QUEEN OF LIARS.

Mrs. Fiske Scored q Triumph In It at the
Frothingham.
After an absence Of a number Of
years, the greater part Of which she
spent In study, Minnie Maddern Fiske
again made her appearance before a
Scranton audience last night in the
rockingham. 1.-THE Queen of LIARS"
adapted from the French of Alphouse
Daudet and Leon Hennique, by her hus-
band. Harrison Grey Fiske, was the
vehicle In which she made her appear
ance.
1t Is fascinating psychological study
OF the motives that sway a woman with
a past who has married a good man.
This man she deeply loves and to pre-
vent discovery Of the hideous past she
lies. Each lie requires another to ex-
tricate her from the mesh the preceding
one has entangled her in and at last
overwhelmed by the embarrasments her
prevarications have caused her she
takes poison.
In the Interpretation of this charac-
ter Mrs. Fiske delighted the audience
and showed that during the years she
has been on the stage her powers as ar.
actress have greatly matured and ex-
panded. She brought a fine intelli-
gence. the proper temperament and a
natural artistic method of acting to the
Interpretation Of the role that called
forth the warmest tributes of apprecia-
tion from the audience.
Mrs. Fiske was supported by an ex-
cellent company, which included James
Neill, Frank r. Mills. Albert Grau.
Ida Waterman. Helen Macbeth and
Mary Maddern.

Hon. Theodore Hart, editor Of the Pitts

on Scranton friends yesterday afternoon,
and inspected The Tribune's new plant.
Mr.. Hart has been asked by many promi-
nent Republicans to be candidate for
national delegate from Luzerne county,
and has consented to permit the use of
his name. In 1880 he ran for delegate, but
the convention elected Mr.. Farnham, of
Wilkes-Barre and Mr.. Albright. of Scran-
ton, as delegates, afterward choosing Mr..
Hart and Mr.. Alexander, of Carbondale,
as alternates. Inasmuch as Wilkes-Barre
has several times had the delegateships,
Mr.. Hart believes that next year the two
extreme ends Of the county will be ac-
corded recognition, thus coupling his can
didacy with that of Representative Lei

COMING ATTRACTIONS.

SALVINI-This evening Scranton
theater goers will have an opportunity
of seeing Alexander Salvini at the
Academy Of Music in 1.-The Three
Guardsmen." One does not realize the
beauty Of The Three Guardsmen" un-
til 1t is seen in action. Dramatized 1t is
action intensified. Not q gap remains
untitled; not a word unsuited to the
motive and result. The scene is laid in
the French court at a time when Kings
were slaves to popes; when women were
the merchandise to power: when honor
was q thing Of name flashed in the
gleam of a rapier and be buried
in the slime Of deeds; when
might was right and infamy owned
both; when treason crawled before him
who paid his service highest. In this
latter day. when war is not a matter
Of despots whim, when a subjects
head Is his own, provided he respects
his fellows. this page of chivalry comes
as q moral lesson and an amusing sa-
tire. BY the touch Of Dumas genius, 1t
becomes as wine to the blood, since 1t
is life, long-bottled in the flagons of his
tory. Salvini plays the dashing guards
man with the impetuosity of the born
cavilier.

HUMANITY-The production of "Hu-
manity" at the Academy Thursday and
Friday evenings revives the memory Of
its substantial success achieved. There

Davies. Hardee kirkland, Miss Bebe
Vining. Miss Airline Athens. G. Jay Will
Jams, Clarence Ferguson, Fannie c.
Jackson, John Haney and others. The

THE ENGINEER-Fo the last three
days of this week 1.-THE Engineer" will
be the attraction at Davis theater. 1t
was produced here early In the season
and Manager Davis thought so well Of 1t
that he booked 1t for return engage
ment. The Philadelphia Call says Of
the drama: "The company is a very
strong one, while good clean comedy is
interspersed throughout, and several
good specialties are introduced at the
proper time and place. The play was
thoroughly enjoyed by the large audi
ence present"

LECTURE ON ANGELO.

Delivered Sv Attorney A. v. Bower In
Green Ridge Presbyterian Church.
The lecture delivered by Attorney A.
". Bower In the Green Ridge Presby-
terian church. illustrated by stereopti-
con views Of the original paintings. was
q rare treat to all who attended the
church last evening.
The lecturer showed . thorough un-
derstanding Of the life and genius Of
Angelo; knowledge acquired by a
careful study In the galleries of Europe,
OF the masterpieces Of the great Italian.
Mr.. Bower has the rare faculty Of
completely absorbing the attention of
his audience, and leading them back
into the past.
The story OF the life of Angelo is a
wonder. The lecturer led his hearers
all along the rugged path of the great
artist from his youth until his death at
VI when he was still busy and active,
but dwelt particularly upon his unpar-
aueied achievement in the Sistine
chapel In Rome: the tombs Of the De
Medici and the mighty Moses. 1t was
a new presentation Of this wonderful
man and one long to be remembered.
