pie, are at the Olympic Theatre this week.

The Play Tomorrow Night.


''The Contested WIZ presented
by the Billings Dramatic Co., in
Paris, on Saturday evening last, was
decided success.
Miss Horsley, as Rose, the adopt
ed daughter of Mr.. Milford, was
natural and seemed quite at home in
her character.
Effie Alfred fook the part Of Mrs.
Milford in a creditable manner.
The servant girl appeared to good
advantage in the amiable Miss Zulu
Rich.
Lottie Nye took the part Of Sooky
Button, the kitchen maid, with
great credit.
Harry Rich, as Frank Colewood,. ).
performed his part well, showing
considerable dramatic ability.
Jim Rich, in the part of Kyl6
Brantford, was alright.
I. K. Hopper in the person of
Alvin Rich was good. The part
was natural for Alvin and he per-
formed it with ease.
Bob Button the highway man
found an able representative in W.
W. Billings.
Zeke, the darkey, found the right
man in Will Hayward.
The play is good one. The
characters throughout were well
sustained and few more rehearsals
will put the company in good shape.

Webster pavI. speak..

Before an audience of 1000 people
Webster Davis, late assistant secre-
tary of the interior, made a speech in
the Washington Grand opera house
the other night. which will never be
forgotten. He had just returned
from South Africa. and resigned his
Office in order to tell the truth about
the Boer situation without stultifying
himself by remaining an official of
McKinley's Pro-British administra-
ton
1t was a tale of British brutality.
1t is not strange that any man with
a heart in his bosom who goes among
the Beers should become n Boer sym
Pathizer.
The British are not so nearly sure
now that they have the Beers whipped
rs they were few weeks ago. Gen.
Roberts finds the Beers on all sides of
him near Bloemfontein and he is seri-
ously EN- barrassed for supplies. His
horses have given out and there are
indications that the Beers will soon
have him trapped. The story now
comes that the Boer women are fight
ing in the trenches beside husband
and brothers. In this gallant strug-
gle for indepe. dence the only people
who have no sympathy TO give the
Beers are the administration and its
pro-British press.
Within the past week the Beers
have captured over 1900 British
troops on Lord Roberts admission,

MCKINLEY's scheme of benevolent
assimilation" is costing the country
$500. 900 day, or $1S5, 900. 900 year,
which amounts to $3.50 per head for
every man, woman and child. A fam
lily of five must contribute $3.50 per
year to help kill off 4 people struggling
for independence. How many would
be willing TO do this if their wishes
were consulted? Not one except those
who expect to hold some fat office in
the Philippines or make money in
some way out of the bloody contest.
