When Julia Marlowe first essayed the char
acter of Cymbeline in this city she gave a re-
ception to representatives OF the press after the
performance and invited the reviewers TO give
her friendly advice regarding her impersona-
ton of Shakespeare's heroine. John j. Nc
Nally, who was representing the Boston Her
aid. suggested that it would liven up the play
a bit If Jachimo and Belario did a song and
dance jast following gruesUme part of the
play, ana an acrobatic act by couple of the
other players introduced at fair opportunity
would add to the general interest.
Mr.. McNally believes in the song and dance
play and he has written a few that have made
many audiences merry in seasons past. His
latest farce comedy, entitled 1.-THE Widow
JONES' written especially for May Irwin,
inaugurated the season ut tho Providence
Opera House last evening.
1t entertained a good sized audience that
bestowed "a warm welcome upon Miss Irwin,
her strong supporting company, and Mr.. Nc
Nally's farce. "The Widow Jones" bore un
mistakably McNally marks. IL was bright,
teemed with w.t. rather OF the curbstone
flavor, and was full of "fy" suggestions and
nsinuations quickly grasped by persons pos
scssing a tendency toward sporting blood
The hits at up-to-date peculiarities, the broad
illusions and cute remarks "cuught the
house" The farce was 90 from the very
frat. II was lively variety all the while. and
kept the audience laughing during its entire
course.
May Irwin was at her best rs tho widow
and she read the playwigbt's lines with con.
siderable skill. She made tho dialogue tell
and brought ont the points with mirth-pro-
voking abandon. Her comic songs were rem
dered excellently and she had TO sing many
times in order TO appease the demands OF the
first nichters The play httod her generous
girth finely and there was much harmony In
the association Of this player with the play.
Miss Irwin is fortunate In her supporting
| company IL Is a band of clever speciality per-
| formers headed by Jonn {. Rice, who IN
ability follows close after the star. Mr.. Bar.
mum gave a fine impersonation OF the emo
tional and fiery Canovas, and Mr.. Sparks,
salie Cohen, Ada Lewis and the others added
literally TO tho enjoyment OF the evening.
"The Widow Jones' was nicely put upon the
stage and II Isaycd very smoothly. IL
| will remain at this tbeater all tho week, in
( ciuding Wednesday and Saturday matinevs.

CLEVELAND TO JOIN THE RE.
PUBLlCANS.

The advocates of free coinage have
repeatedly stated that the only differ
ence between Clevel and and his cuck-
COS and Sherman. Reed & Co., was
about eleven per cent on tariff sched
ules. Sherman, Reed and othec Re
publican leaders endorsed Cleveland 5
financial policy and voted to sustain
his veto on the Bland Seignorage Bill.
They preferred bond issues to coming
silver and with Cleveland's cuckoos
formed third party in Congress when
ever il was deemed necessary to main
tain the single gold standard. Now.
according TO the New York Recorder,
Cleveland and his cuckoos contemplate
uniting with the Republicans and
making common cause against the
Free Coinage men in the next Presi-
Dental campaign.
The program, according to the Re-
corder. is to endeavOr to defeat the
Silver Democrats II the National Con-
vention. Failing in this the President
and very likely his whole cabinet will
go into the Republican camp. Secre-
tary Carlisle says if the Democratic
Convention should declare for free sill
yer and nominate n free silver candi-
date, he cannot see any course open
TO him except 20 vote the Republican
ticket
Mr.. Cleveland begins to realize what
others have foreseen for some time.
that there will be q new alignment of
parties. He would like TO be again
nominated on the anti.silver platform
as he believes he would be Endorsed by
eastern Republicans. To acconp ish
this purpose he will devote all his en-
ergy until all the delegates 10 the Dem
ocratic National Convention are chosen
to secure a majority for the single gold
standard. The great army OF office
holders dependent upon the Admins
tra,ion will be used to determine the
complexion Of the Convention and if it
declares against silver he will newt
ably be its nominee for President.
Should the convention declare for free
coinage he and his immediate follow
ers will move into the Republican
camp and fight the Silver men

THE INCOME TAX SUSTAINED

II is stated that Justice Jackson of
the Supreme Court of the United
States has sustained the constitution
alitv of the income tax and that the
law will now stand except as to rents
from real estate and income from
State and municipal bonds. At the
consultation of the Justices, Jackson
voted with Brown. White. and Har.
land and Shiras to sustain the law,
and the decision will stand five to
four in favor Of the law.
Il is also reported that the argu-
ments counsel did not change the
views of a single Justice and the
clauses of the act held to be uncon-
stitutional in the original opinion are
still he d to be so. Justice JacksOn's
attitude was understood by his asso-
ciates on the bench before he returned
to Washington. He was fully advised
as to the merits of the case and was
prepared to vote when the Justices
met for consultation. The only point
gained by having the rehearing is
that it enables the Treasury officials
to collect the tax, other than incomes
from real estate and bonds, with less
embarrassment than if the rehearing
had not occurred.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

In another column is pl II ed story
relative to running Debbs for Presi-
dent. If the working men will vote
for the free coinage nominee, and elect
him, they will see no further need of
strikes. They should bear in mind
that there will be but one real issue
in the fight and that issue is bimetal-
lism. It is gold against silver and
the introduction of other issues splits
the forces opposing gold and defeats
the Silver candidate.

when he and l were driving in his one
horse buggy to the court in Menard coun-
ty, Ills. The suit we were going to try
was one in which we were likely, either
directly or collaterally, to touch upon the
subject of hereditary traits. During the
ride he spoke for the first time in my hear
ing of his mother, dwelling on her charac-
teristics and mentioning or enumerating
what qualities he inherited from her. He
said, among other things, that she was the
daughter of Lucy Hanks and a well bred
but obscure Virginia farmer or planter,
and he argued that from this last source
came his power of analysis. his logic, his
mental activity, hts ambition and all the
qualities that distinguished him from the

From "The Life of Lincoln" by William Fl
Herndon and Jesse W. Weik. Copyright, 1883
by Jesse W. Weik Copyright. 1892, by D. APP
pleton & Co.
Beyond the fact that he was born on the
18th day of February 1909, in Hardin
county, KY, Mr. Lincoln usually had but
little to say of himself, the lives of his
parents or the history of the family before
their removal to Indiana. If he mentioned
the subject at all, it was with great reluc
bince and significant reserve. There was
something about his origin he never cared
tc dwell upon. His nomination for the
presidency in 1860. however, made the
publication of his life necessity and at
tracted to Springfield an army of cam.
paign biographies and newspaper men
They met him in his Office, stopped him
In his walks and followed him to his
house Artists came to paint his picture
and sculptors to make his bust. His auto
graphs were in demand, and people came
long distances to shake him by the hand
This sudden elevation to national promi-
hence found Mr.. Lincoln unprepared in a
great measure for the unaccustomed dem
onstration that awaited him While he
was easy Of approach and equally courte
GUS to all, yet, as he said to me one evening
after long day of handshaking he could
not understand why people should make

Among the earliest newspaper men to
