Uncle Toms Cabin is a familiar name

TO patronizs the 'Magdas' and The
Second Mrs Tanouerays." but the people
who patronize Uncle Toms Cabin" re-
gard such plays as little more than
scurrilous and licentious exhibitions It's
the good old stabd folks, the home bodies,
and many of the so-called old-fashioned
men and women that Uncle Toms Cab
in, with its pure and simple story, must
nowadays depend upon for support but
it is to the credit of this republics moral
atmosphere that there are left large
number of these people, as Is overwhelm-
ingly evidenced whenever this play
comes TO this city. This familiar play is
advertised TO be given upon the stage of
the Crawford Grand Saturday, matinee
and night, October %. in more elaborate
manner than it has perhaps ever before
been seen in this city.

A TEXAS STEER.

| Charles Hoyt's best play will be pre-
sented at the Crawford Grand next Mon
day, October 81. 1t is a most laughable
satire on present day politics. and the
story opens in Texas with the election Of
Maverick Brander. the cattle king, TO
congress Brander is modest man and
does not seek Office. The election takes
place during his absence from home, and
is brought about by the ambition of his
family for social distinction and desire
to get out of the dreariness of life on
cattle ranch and in a. frontier town. to the
gayer and more fashionable circles found
at the national capital. The first intima-
ton Brander has of his election that has
been brought about by the instrumental
ity of three local politicians, Messrs. Yell.
Bragg and Blow, Is when he Is ''yanked'
off his wagon on his peaceful way home.

Between the first act and the second euf-
fcient time is supposed to have elapsed
for the Brander family 10 get acquainted
with tn. town. social friction has
smootfled the general appearance, man

REV. ]. J. LEWIS.
The subject of the lecture OF Rev. J. ].
Lewis at the Crawford Grand on Satur-
day. November u. has caused comment
and controversy in New York many times
The Passion Play has been a feature
and has given the little hamlet of Ober-
ammergrau a world wide fame. The lee
ture of Mr. Lewis, however. has been en-
dorsed and recommends by clergy of all
denominations. The first lecture in the
Hospital Course has been conceded to be
the finest ever presented here. The sec
ond. while OF a different order, is in the
same rank.

We heard John Breidenthal
make the statement i'm this city
rlonday night last in which he
referred to Wichita and Wichita
citizens as repudiatorse In
speaking of the charge that the
Popuiist party was a party of
reputation, he referred to the
real estate men of the boom days
and dwelt particularly on Wich-
ita aid her citizens as among the
real repudiators; alleged that
Wichita citizens of the Wichita

that city had repudiated ten
million dollars of honest debts.

Saved a Few Shillings at Self
Sacrifice.

An interesting case of self
sacrifice came to our notice a few
days ago. A man, honored by
his fellow citizens as a good, in
telligent neighbor, was found
guilty of gross self-sacrifce. His
eyes were poor. He had neg
lected to have them properly
cared for, preferring rather to
save the few shillings it would
cost. Now he has simply muir
de1ed the muscles of his eyes,
and he would gladly give many
times the amount of money saved
to have his vision restored. Alasl
It is too late.
