OPERA HOUSE-First half of next
matinee and night. Hearts of Oak"
Hearts of Oak.
To have written the best American
plays, is a record to be proud of and
that is what James A. Hearne has
done. From Hearts of Ooak," his first
effort to Sag Harbor," his latest, in
the list of which is included such
grand works as Margaret Fleming"
Shore Acres and Griffith Daven-
port" he has ever been true to himself
and has thus been true to nature and
true to art. While in his later plays
he has no doubt scared to more splen
did heights in none of them has he
been more successful in touching the
human heart strings than in Hearts
OF Oak" the first and therefore the
best beloved child of his pen. Hearts
OF Oak" is thus spoken of Familiarity,
because its frequent repetitiOns
throughout the land has rendered it
almost household word. A first-class
production is promised, capable COM
pany, adequate scenery and all other
necessary accessories. Hearts of
Oak" will be the Thanksgiving attrac-
ton at the Opera House Thursday,
November 18th, matinee and night.

last night in his creation of the title

very finished and artistic bit of work
and was heartily applauded through

he last appeared here. Mr.. Harrigan's

Faust, October Sth, 1900

Faust will be at Royal Hall Monday
evening, October 9Th, and will be one of
the finest attractions ever here. The
following is the comment of the Dubois,
Pa, Express:
"Goethe's Faust holds high place
among the literary works of the world.
Around popular tale it winds incidents
OF universal experience and the deepest
problem of human life. In Germany
nearly every line of the poem has become
household word. The first part of the
poem was given to the world in 1903, and
since it was recast in dramatic form for
the stage it has never failed to hold the
theatre goers by reason of it's intense
human interest. The supernatural ele-
ments introduced in the working out of
the plot lend themselves to the spectacu-
lar presentation and the mechanical and
electrical effects formed striking feat
ure to last evenings performance and
gave added power to the tragic story of
the sage whose youth was restored in
consequence of his contract with
Mephisto, and whose fendish purpose
cast lurid light upon the romantic love
of Faust and Marguerite"

Tobacco Notes.

VIM Mcintosh and Sanford Soyerhill
are hunting either chickens or tobacco
in the Rio section this week.
Mr.. Maurice Bamberger was in this
market short time early in the week,
leaving for Philadelphia Tuesday even
ing.
Henry Miller was in town Saturday
getting some pointers from the late
warehouses built here for the new
structure he is to erect at Sun Prairie.
Mr.. R. w. Watson of the N. Y. In
spection firm of Linde, Hamilton & Co.,
is in the state for the purpose of draw
ing samples from several packings.
Henry Friedman and Cap Campbell
of the we'll known Chicago leaf firm of
j. Friedman & Co., have been riding
through the growing districts the past
week getting pointers on the new crop.
Fl. S. Pomeroy began stripping his 1900
crop Tuesday. The rains early in the
week brought the tobacco into case and
as it was entirely cured out portion
was taken down and stripped. This is
the earliest stripping record made in the
state and is an indication that the early
harvested tobacco is completely cured.
It is an assured fact that Sun Prairie
is to have a tobacco warehouse which
will cover more ground than any other
such building in Wisconsin. The new
building will be erected by Mr.. Henry
Miller, of Milwaukee. and will be To-
Gated on the railroad ground just north
of the railroad company's warehouse,
{~.+ - I 4 4 L
The warehouse will be 5Ox2OO with Is
foot posts above the basement. It is to
be lighted by electricity and heated by
steam. 1t is model of hardness and
will have an immense storage capacity.
The basement is arranged to accommo-
date about 70 sorters and is so construct
ed that more tables can easily be added.
When the new house is up Mr.. Miller
will have storing capacity of about
5000 cases of tobacco in the village

Hicks October Weather.

Rev. Hicks, whose forecast of the West
India storm that brought such calam-
ity to the gulf coast, has issued the fol-
lowing October forecast: The first three
days of the month will be central days
OF Vulcan storm period. Brisk autumn
nal winds, with electrical storms in some
localities may be expected. A reaction
airy storm disturbance is due from the
9Th to 8th. The conditions are almost
Identical with those existing at the time
of the great cyclone which destroyed
Galveston. While he does not expect
anything like repetition of that fatal
storm we may look for marked storm
conditions. Much cooler weather will
be natural behind this storm. The next
storm period will culuminate about the
18th, bringing cold weather in the wake.
Natures regular swing back to storm
conditions will be natural from the 18th
to 10th. The next Vulcan period will be
central on the Oath and more rain, wind
and snow will be the natural conse-
quence up to the Goth. Quite severe
gales on the lakes and North Atlantic
coast should be apprehended at this
time. A sharp cold wave for the season
will spread over the country from about
the 18th to the 18th. October will come
to close with reactionary storm about
the Doth and 3Oth, with cold weather
advancing from the west as the month
goes out.

ODELL EXPLAINS HIS POSITION.
READY TO CONSULT RAILROAD EMPLOYEES
IN CHOOSING A COMMISSIONER


B. B. Odell, jr received few days ago letter
from representative of certain railroad employees
asking him TO define his position in regard to the
appointment of a practical railroad a Rail-
road Commissioner to represent the railroad en-
ployes in case he should be elected. In the same
letter the who wrote him stated that he had
been informed that a letter of similar character
had been sent Mr.. Oden by NJ. j. Glenn, of Hor-
nellsville n. Y. Mr.. Odelrs reply to this mans
inquiry was follows:
which the statement is made by you that a certain
letter was sent me by NJ. j. Glenn of Hornellsville
asking me to define my position on the Railroad
Comnissionershlp, and that a similar letter had
been sent to the Democratic nominee for Governor
Mr. Stanchfeld, and that had ignored the letter.
l desire 10 say to you in reply that, while not
controverting the statement that such letter may
have been sent, l do say most emphatcally that
it has never been received by me. 1 take great
pleasure in defining to you my position upon the
questions you PROFOUND.
First as to my understanding Of what a practt-
cal railroad man means, as governing the selection
OF commissioner 10 represent the interests of the
railroad employees of the State my answer is that
the understanding that l have of that statute Is
that practical railroad man is not one who has
fc but that he must be a practical man in every
sense of the word. take 1t that this Railroad
giving the railroad employees a representative upon
this Board. The practical Interpretation that I
would give would be that he should be a repre-
sentative or the employees, rather than who was
an employer IN any capacity upon the railroads.
If elected l should give this important matter
very careful consideration. My first step would he
to consult with the various railroad EMPLOYEES or
ganizations throughout the State and receive their
suggestions concerning the selection Of a man to
such selection on the lines indicated above.
thanking you for your courtesy, and trusting
that you will disabuse the minds Of your asso-
ciates as TO any intention upon my part to ignore
their respectful request.
