Marie Wainwright will appear at
the Auditorium February 2, in
"Shall We Forgive Her" new and
strong play. 1t has demonstrated
its popularity in this country by
attracting large audiences where
ever it has been seen. 1t has been
provided with appropriate scenery
and the cast supporting Miss Vain
wright, an actress who has few
equals in her line, is an admirable
one. There will doubtless be many
who have followed Miss Waia-
wrights career as a successful star
who will take this opportunity OF
seeing her in her new role and in a
modern melodrama.

Smallpox is spreading-How near
Little Rock, Pulaski county. Rep
resentative Short, of Fulton county,
is said to have voted against any
appropriation for the state board
of health at the last session of the
legislature, but among FIRST meas
ures to pass this session was his bill
to appropriate 5000 to the board to
stamp out smallpox in his section,
1t seems his thick skull was at last
enabled to see the need of funds for
the board, when bis OK was gore"
Let us hope legislature will now ap-
propriate at least $4,000 toward
stamping out future contagious
diseases in the state, for if it is not
needed it will not be used. Also
that the legislature will pass a
measure to restore to Tex
arkana the large sums she expend-
ed in protecting the rest of the
state in quarantine against yellow
fever south of us-this would be
simple Justice,

The city editor was awakened
Friday night by the ringing of the
telephone bell and was loath to
answer it TOR a time, for fear he
lad wounded the feelings of some
sensitive reader Of his columns, and
that he was in for genuine dress
ing down. The bell kept up such
a persistent ringing that we hualIy
tumbed out and answered its call,
and was agreeably pleased when a
rich, sweet voice said I'VE are
having some excellent music in the
parlor here, Ceiling her name), anc
[ thought perhaps you would like
to hear it," and with this came
harmonious sounds floating over
the wire. We don't remember OF
ever hearing a richer or sweeter
melody OF sounds anywhere. We
could distinguish the piano, violin
and guitar and each player kept
perfect time. We did not ask OF
learn who the performers we're, but
we know each one was a master OF
mistress over the instrument they
had made a study. We return a
thousand thanks to our fair sere
nader to whom we are indebted for
the treat. We shall not hang back
from answering any call again at
our bell for fear we may miss some

Sam Jones, the noted preacher,
asked the following pertinent ques-
ton: DO you know that boys are
much more particular about whom
they 90 with than the girls2' You
may think it strange statement
but your own observations will
prove its truth. A girl will go on
the streets in open day with a boy
that gets drunk, but the minute a
boy finds out a girl gets drunk he
does not want to be seen in her
company. 1t would be well if our
girls we're as particular with whom
they 90 as the boys.

The Republican caucuses in the
Fourth and Fifteenth wards Will pe
held this afternoon between the hours
of and Z o'clock, at the respective
polling places for the nominations OF
common council and school controller
in the former and select council ana
alderman in the latter. The various
ward officers will also be named and
as the nominations practically mean
an election, the fight will be vigorous
ly fought by the various candidates.
In the Fifteenth ward eX-Common
Councilman Joseph oliver seeks to sue
ceed the present incumbent in the Sc
lect council, IICratio +. Fellows, ana
as each has n large following the bat
tie of the ballots will be waged from
the opening to the closing If the polls.
David NJ. Jones and Edward Williams,
who aspired to the nomination, have
withdrawn. BY the withdrawal of L.
T. Morgan. Alderman Moses will be
named without opposition. The cam
didates for register, judge and inspec-
tor are too numerous to mention, but
all will strive to gain the coveted po-
sitions.
In the Fourth ward Common Coun-
Gilman William Griffiths desires a Sec
ond term and is opposed by David
Parry, brother of Patrolman Parry.
The real fight in the Fourth is for
the nomination of school controller,
four candidates aspiring to represent
the ward on the board. They are A
B. Eynon, cashier Of the West Side
bank; Thomas Z. Price, the uewsdeal-
er and barber: David Evans, assistant
mine boss at Briggs shaft, and David
T. Jenkins, tax collector of North Re-
becCa avenue. Each aspirant has
thoroughly canvassed the ward and ir
consequence the largest vote ever
polled in the ward is anticipated.
The usual quota of ward officers will
be nominated and as there are NJ
Democratic candidates in the field al
voters will be privileged to cast theil
ballots today. This will divide the
vote among the candidates and who
ever wins out will probably do so will
a small margin.
The Fifth ward caucus originally
announced for this afternoon has beer
postponed until Saturday, December
