"Why Smith Left Home. y

day night, Oct 7, at the Auditorium.
The queer name, why Smith Left
Home" suggests at once that it con-
Germs the doings of the Smith family.
This particular Smith is widower
who has married a charming young
wife half his age, and decides to spend
his honeymoon at home. Members of
both families suddenly appear to see
how they are gettingalOng, and among
them are several who come only to
make life a burden to Mr. Smith. He
has a maiden sister, and Mrs. Smith
has an aunt of the mother-in-law
stripe, who starts in to run the house.
Mrs. Smiths brother in college ap-
pears with a bride, with whom ne has
just eloped and certain aged gentle
men who had known Smith come to
get acquainted with Mrs. Smith One
of these, a German Count, makes des-
perate love to her, mistaking her for
the daughter of the old maid sister of
Smith. By mistake Smith meets his
wife's maid and kisses her under the
impression it is his wife, and the sit
uations son develop as much sorrow
for the new Mrs. Smith as for Mr..
Smith. To gives these details affords
no idea whatever of the authors clever
manner in working them into uproar-
ious climaXes of humor and the task
cannot be attempted at all At these
moments the audience is conyulsed
with laughter, Seats on sale at Gates

MEANS PROSPERITY.
EX-GOVERNOR FOSTERS EARNEST
ADVICE TO The PARTY.

The Terrible Menace of Democratic vIe-
tory-''support OF Judge Nash Is Based
Upon My Desire to See Present Pros
porous Times Continue.
Ex-Governor Charles Foster, one Of
the war horses of the Republican party
in Ohio has been living quietly at his
home in Fostoria for some time. The
McLeanites, in their desperate efforts
to manufacture disaffection to Judge
Nash within his own party, have circu-
lated stories to the effect that ex-Gov-
ernor Foster intended to bolt the Re-
publican ticket The lie was so alb
surd that no one took the trouble to
contradict it. Mr.. Fosters personal
friends, however, have been indignant
because of the Mclean lies, and have
so expressed themselves. Last week
Mr.. Foster was in Columbus, and said
in an interview:
81 have desired to make statement
for some time, and perhaps today is
the best time for it.
81 desired the nomination of Judge
Nash on personal grounds, but also on
higher grounds. believed that
through him the factional differences
of the Republican party in Ohio will
be greatly modified. l know the man.
and l feel free to make the statement
that, as governor of Ohio, he will
know no faction in the distribution Of
patronage. All will be treated consid-
erately and properly. Judge Nash as
governor will not be controlled by any
man or by any faction. He will be
a Republican all the time, as he always
has been.
my support of Judge Nash is also
based upon my desire to see the pres
ent prosperous times continue.
"A Democratic victory in Ohio this
fall with the principles of the Zanes-
vile convention written on the banner
of the Democracy, would lead to the
same disastrous results which followed
the national election of 1892. The eyes
of the nation are turned to Ohio. A
Democratic victory in Ohio this fall
would be a reputation of President
McKinley's policy and a national dis
aster.
while capital stands ready at this
time to invest in any promising enter
prise, the moment that it becomes
known that the state of Ohio has failed
to endorse the president, capital will
be alarmed
"a Democratic victory this fall would
tie up the business of the country i'm
mediately, and capital will lie in hid
ing until after the election of 1900, and
perhaps longer just as surely as it did
in 1895 and 1896 Thousands of enter
prises that would be undertaken with
Judge Nash as governor will be aban-
doned in the event of Democratic
victory"

Hoyts "A Day and A Night. "

Charles Hoyts new musical comedy,
"A Day and A Night" will be present
ed at the Auditorium tonight. Mr.
Hoyt is a keen observer of men and af-
fairs, and in his travels around the
country keeps his eyes open to the
trend of public affairs, He Is, too, an
entertaining talker, and possesses the
rare quality and ability to transmit his
gleanings to others. Mr.. Hoyts new
play received his especial care, both
as to staging and costumlng. The
company is one of unusual excellence,
and the musical portion of the pro-
Crane is more ambitious than in any
former Hoyt comedy. The principle
roles are all in the hands of Hoyt ia
Yorites, or are reasonably sure Of es-
tablishing themselves as such.
