The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1896-11-21

MANY Of Mr.. Bryans polcal opponents
have commended the manly spirit he has
shown since his defeat and have so ex-
pressed themselves publicly, but if he con
tinues to fire off his mouth as he did at
Lincoln on Saturday, they will have very
good reason to change their opinion, Said
Mr.. Bryan:
81 want to say to you as private citizens,
standing among you, l will enjoy my life
for the next four years better than any
person in public position who owes his
election to corporate agencies. In saying
this, don't want you to single out any
particular person. am making general
statement, because l want to say to you
that the man who owes his election to any
office-from the highest Office in the gift Of
the nation down to the city office in your
city-who owes his office to corporations
who will desire to control him when he is
elected, has an office that any man with
honorable spirit ought to be ashamed to
occupy
This fling at Mr.. Mckinley is as unmanly
as it is untrue, and is very well calculated
to create indignation against, rather than
admiration for, Mr.. Bryan

SOME of the Bryanite papers are circu-
lating a statement showing how easily
their candidate might have won, if p, 600
votes had been changed and distributed
over some of the doubtful states. In face
OF the fact that Mckinley has a majority of
about 1,0O0,00 of the popular vote it
seems hardly worth while to indulge in
such day dreams.

.TR|LBY ON THE STAGE
WORK OF PAUL NJ. POTTER AS THE
DRAMATIST. &
Approached Difficult Task-Hyp-
motto Element of the Play-Soon to
BE Seen Here.

1t takes keen eye to see the way
to dramatizing Du Maurier's "Trilby,"
but Paul NJ. Potter has, in four beauti-
full acts succeeded in the task of em-
bodying all the essentials of tho
work. Those who have read
the book must bow their acknowledge
ment of burning alteration of the nov
elist's theme to the man who had thu
courage of his own conception in
such crucial moment of an age of
cynics. The loyalty of the reader does
not in his hours of admiration impel
him mentally to hedge in the book
with sort of anti-dramatic noli me
tangere. nor does one need to view the
possibility of it's 'desecration" on the
stage with the calmness to think of
the matter at all. In the dramatiza-
ton of the work Mr.. Potter has wisely
adhered as closely as the conditions
would allow to its original purport
and character The skill with which
MI. lOlltI lidS bOHt MS NOlh van ~
called nothing less than remarkable.
He has far outdone the realism of
the novel in making Svengali's hyp-
motto power underlie well nigh every
thing in the development of the story.
and in making it the real handspring
of all that happens. More than this,
the whole hypnotic element in the
play. potentized and extended though
it be, is far more welcome than in the
novel. He has cut adrift from the
original story in making this feature
the efficient center of the whole. while
with astounding skill he has retained
everything in the way of incident that
made the novel interesting.
In staging "Trilby" Mr.. A. NJ. Pal
mer has taken every caution to per-
feet the details of the play. The com
pany which will present the already
famous piece here at the drill shed on
the 10th or 18th inst should give the
most remarkable performance ever
seen in this city.

be safer. A few days ago a prominent gen

"Give me figures for wiring my house, and

Last night a lamp tipped over and it came
SO near, setting fire to the house and burning

This is the sentiment of quite a number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.

trine square with the earlier one? How
can YOU raise the price of thing by
coIning a dollar that will buy just as
much ofiteas the old dollar bought?
