And manhood's won.

To CONTEST SHAFFER S ELECTION
Mr.. Fl. Clay Getzendanner, of Shep-
herdstown, who was defeated upon
the face of the returns for the State
Senate from this district, will con-
test the election of Mr.. D. W. Shat.
fer, his opponent. The district is
composed Of Jefferson, Berkeley and
Morgan counties, and has usually
been Democratic by large MAORI
ty, but in the general sweep of this
campaigs Jeferson's majority was
reduced and the Republican MAORI
ties in Berkeley and Morgan greatly
increased. Mr.. Skaters name was,
by petition, placed on the National
Democratic ticket, and he was also
the nominee of the Free Silver or
Democratic party. The petitioners,
Mr.. Getzendanher alleges, were not
members of the National Democrat
ic party or Gold Democrats, but
many of them were free silverites
The contest is based upon the
grounds that Skaters name was H.
legally placed upon the Gold ticket by
the clerks of the Circuit Courts, be-
cause those signatures were not those
of supporters OF the Gold party. The
contest will be heard in the State
Senate, which convenes in January.

The Damrosch Opera company will
present "Tannhauser'' at the Hyperion
on Friday night. Herr Max Alvary
will appear as Tannhauser and Frau
Katharine Klafsky as Elizabeth. The
New York Symphony orchestra will
furnish the orchestra music conducted
by Walter Damrosch In consequence
of the heavy sale of seats for Friday
Mr.. Bunnell has made arrangements
for an extra performance to be given
by this great company on Saturday
afternoon, when "Lohengrin" will be
given.
Barron Berthald will sing the music
of Lohengrin and Fraulein Johanna
Gadski that of Elsa. Great interest
is also taken in the production in the
appearance of Herr Demeber Popo-
poice, who will sing the music of Eel
ramund.
An exchange says: In figure Barron
Berthald is an ideal knight of holy
grail. With golden blonde beard and
hair, crowned with a silver helmet,
gIittering silver chain armor his ap-
pearance when stepping from the magic
boat was that of a true knight in the
old fairy tales.
The Telramund of Herr Popovici was
magnificent. His voice is well suited to
the role, and when his eyes flash with
the fervor of passion his voice rises
to the climax. He never forgets his
art, and his enunciation is distinct and
clear cut. 1t is not too much to say
that no better TeIramund ever APP
peared here, in voice or comprehensive
interpretation.
Herr Behrens was a dignified king,
massive and conscious of power and
might. and to say such was the i'm
preston created by his voice, is to
accord the highest praise.
