have been spent on new and permanent
streets and roadbeds, until now there
are here hundreds of miles of the best
built streets in the world.
1t was Mayor Quincy who caused the
ton, the largest in the world; several
new and permanent bridges have been
erected; through his influence a dozen
new schoolhouses and scores of smaller
projects have been completed, all adding
to the attractiveneSs of the city and the
convenience of its people.
While the tax rate has not been de-
creased under his administration, more
money has been spent for public i'm
provements than ever before, and hun
dreds more men have been regularly
employed at good wages by the various
departments. Mayor Quincy believes
that Boston is today one of the best
governed cities in the world, and there
are evidences everywhere that his rule
has been a good one for the great ma
jority of the people if not for certain
of the taxpayers whose assessments
have been increased because of public
improvements that otherwise would not
have come for years.
Mayor Quincy has had prepared an
elaborate series of Photographic stere-
opticon pictures which will illustrate
his lecture, and he will describe in detail
some of the things he has had accom-
plished. His address createdsa con-
siderable impression when given in New
York recently, and as the mayor is a
good talker and a handsome man Chi
cagoans should be able to gain some
valuable ideas from him.

COMING DRAMATIC EVENTS.


Next Monday night at the Crawford
theater THE Bostonians" will be heard
in Topeka for the first time in several
years, putting on Victor Herbert's sue
cessful opera, 1.-The Serenade.'' Up to
the time of the organization of the

L. Perley, THE Bostonians'' probably
had no equal in the light opera field
When Nelson left the company to be-
come a light opera star she took with
her several of her associates. but not
Withstanding, an excellent organizat ton
has continued to be maintained The
company is now on it's way east from
a trip to the Pacific coast. and it's ap-
pearance here will be the last event of
the theatrical season. The sale of seats
will open at the Rowley & Snow drug
store Thursday morning at o'clock,
and undoubtedly all Topeka lovers of
light opera will take the opportunity of
hearing 1.-THE Serenade.'' The Bos-
tOnians'' still include Henry Clay Barn
abee, William H. Mcdonald, Jessie
Bartlett Davis, Helen Bertram, George
rockingham, William Broderick VIII
liam LAWN and Josephine Bartlett.
The Oliver Colby Vaudeville company
will open the season at Garfield park

WILL SPEND $15O,OOO.
Amount New York Will Appropriate
For Dewey Reception.

New York, May 16.-The Herald to-
morrow will say:
''That New York's welcome to Dewey
is to be conducted on a grand scale was
shown yesterday when the joint COM
mittee from the board of aldermen and
council decided to call on the municipal
assembly to authorize an appropriation
of $3.50, 900 for the city's part in the
ceremonies. Mayor VanWyck heartily
approves of such an appropriation.
Resolutions providing for the expen-
diture of this amount in preparing
reception for the hero of Manila will be
introduced in both branches of the mu-
nicipal assembly today, and will prob
ably be adopted without a dissenting
vote 1t was decided that the official
reception shall be held on the day after
Admiral Dewey arrives.
Temporary organization of the mu-
nicipal association joint committee to
take preliminary steps for the recep-
ton was effected yesterday. 1t was
suggested that the governor of each
state be invited to attend and that each
state be asked to send a regiment or
two of its national guard. Mayor Van
Wyck favored this plan. 1t was de-
cided to ask the mayor to appoint the
general reception committee

BACK FROM COREA.
Mrs. ]. D. Adams, Formerly Miss
Nellie Dick, Returns.

Mrs. J. E Adams, who left Topeka
four years ago to act as a missionary
in COrea, returned Sunday to rest and
recuperate. Her husband remains to
carry on the work and Mrs. Adams
brings with her two little children. Ben
janin, a baby and the first American
child to be born in Tagoo. The other
little fellow, Edward, is four years old
and can talk Corean as well as he can
English but since arriving in the Uni
ted States he Stoutly refuses to speak
a word of anything but English. Mrs.
Adams name was Nellie Dick before
she was married and she is well known
in Topeka. Mrs. Adams is stopping
with Mrs. A. K. Rodgers at sol Monroe
street.
1T is a four days trip overland by
chair to Tagoo,'' said Mrs. Adams. AT
ter landing from the little boats that
run along the coast of China start
on this trip. The men usually ride
on horses but the women ride in chairs
carried by four Coolies. We stopped
at the inns to eat and to stay over
night. The Coolies spend more time
working over their horses than they
do on themselves. Unless a person car
ries a cot with them they have to sleep
on the bare floors Of these inns at
night.
THE country is beautiful and mostly
mountainous. In TagoO we are sur
rounded by mountains. We are in the
southern part and do not have perpet-
ual snow. The Coreans are an intelli
gent people and as one learns to know
them they learn to love them. The
Coreans are between the japanese and
the Chinese but are distinctive of both
races. I think the COreans as intelli
gent as the Japanese. There are a
great many ignorant Coreans who are
ready to learn. They know little about
the world and when told that the earth
is round or that the same sun shines on
the UnitedStates as shines on Corea they
are surprised.
1.-The Coreans are ruling themselves.
The Japanese tried looking after the
government for awhile and then gave it
up. That was when the queen was
killed Then Russia tried it awhile
and gave it up. We tried to keep
track of the Manila news through the
English papers from Seoul but we were
not near enough to know as much as the
people here. The Corean language is
very hard to learn. They have no gram
mar and few text books. Recently a
missionary got out a dictionary and
others have tried to issue grammarS
to aid missionaries in learning the
language.
There is a great desire among the
people to hear the gospel. Our quart
ers were so crowded that many had to
sit out in the yard. 1t is curiosity that
brings many of them"
Mrs. Adams was accompanied on the
homeward voyage by Rev. and Mrs.
William Baird who live at 1904 Topeka
avenue. They have been in Corea for
eight years and a half.

A FINISH FIGHT
Is Now on Between Contractors and

Buffalo, N. Y, May 16.-Only two ell

The contractors expect to have the On
tario in operation during the day. Be
tween SO and 100 men have been brought

er Chemung is being loaded with pack
age freight and the contractor has 14O
Central and Northern docks, large
gangs of freight handlers are at work.
The coal handlers, coal beavers and ore
handlers are still out, and that class of
work is almost entirely suspended. The
Lake Carriers association having ap-
parently dropped out after expressing
their confidence in Bishop Quigley, the
affair appears to have settled down to
a finish fight between the strikers and
the contractor. Good order prevails.

BOSTON'S MAYOR TO TALK.
Mr.. Quincy's Address In Chicago To-
night Will Tell What Municipal
Reforms He Has Wrought

Boston, May 16.-The address which
Mayor Josiah Quincy of Boston will
make in Chicago tonight will be the
one he has delivered in New York and
other eastern cities this year.
Mayor Quincy, who is now serving
his second term, is very much of re-
former, but along lines quite unlike
those usually understood by that term
He believes heartily in public improve
ments and additions to the comfort and
convenience of the masses of the people.
His public baths project now in success
full operation is one of the reforms he
has instituted. He thought if the poor
people could have places to battle win
ter and summer free they would take
advantage of them, and he lived to see
his idea amply justified. Under his ad-
ntnistration almost millions Of dollars
