There is much needless alarm on the
part of politicians over the possible pur-
chase of voters today Conditions at
present are vastly different from those
existing at the time of any previous
presidential election. The Australian
ballot law. in some form. IS in existence
in almost all the states of the Union.
Under its operation the secrecy Of the
ballot Is absolute. The man would be
foolish indeed who would invest money
in the purchase OF votes when he has
no means of knowing whether he gets
them or not Men may be hired to
abstain from voting or election boards
may be bribed to faIsify the returns.
but the opportunities for the success
full purchase Of votes are extremely linz
tied and uncertain.

.sHAMLET,, on FRIDAY.
This VIII be the Leading Dramatic
Event Of the Week.

The star attraction at the Grand
Opera House for this week and not un-
likely for this month will be Walker
Whitesidets presentation of Hamlet
Friday evening The following notice
of him is credited to the New York
Herald:
Walker Whiteside. the brilliant
young western tragedian, was enthusi-
asticalIy received as Hamlet at the
Herald Square theater. Conservative
critics appeared to accept his interpre-
tation of the gloomy prince with great
warmth and without reserve. 1t was
the expressed opinion that not a native
player Of the last half century has CIV
en- more tokens of tragic distinction
Whiteside's conception of Hamlet fur
nishes convincing proof of deep ana
lysis and is alive with suggestion his
version Of the play is marked by a
courageous retention of lines that false
mOdesty has heretofore eliminated He
has a voice of marvellous sweetness,
fieXibility and power. The production
scenically and in support, is generally
cOncede to excel any presentation OF
the tragedy ever staged here"
A good many Topeka people of judg-
ment are of the opinion that "Charley's
Aunt is the funniest comedy ever
written It will be at the Grand Opera
House Wednesday evening 1t has
been translated into five languages.
The American Dramatic company
opened its weeks engagement at the
Crawford last evening to a good house
with a. production of Shadows of
Great City" The company carries
more scenery than any company that
ever played at popular prices it is said.

GLADsToNE's FAMILY LIFE.

From the Scientific American.
A large-hearted old man, who loves chill
dren, is sure, no matter how masterful he
may be, to be ruled by some child. Mr.
Gladstone is no exception. His sunny little
granddaughter, Dorothy Drew, rules her
iliustrious grandfather as imperiously rs
he ruled his party in the days of his polit-
ical leadership. The grand old man flnds
pleasure in her companionship, and even
when posed for a picture allows her 10

to keep quiet. A writer in an American
contemporary says:
Never was a family more truly uhi'eu
than that of the Gladstones. They coIsu-

and wholesome in body, and no breath 0,

him to invent some symbols by which the
gradations of his thoughts could be pic
tured to his own mind; and. when the phil
osopher is not dumb, such symbols are
supplied by the words which enable him
to convey his thoughts to others and to
receive theirs in return. An agricultural
peasant may be man of great natural
acuteness. but as long as he is restricted
to the peasants vocabulary of two or three
hundred words there would be no channel
through which it would be possible to con-
Vey to his intelligence a great number Of
facts and doctrines which are familiar to
better educated people. 1t would be hardly
possible, for example, to make him under
stand the undulatory theory of light and
the consequences which flow from it, al
though his natural capacity might be quite
equal to the task.
