AFTERMATH,

The trustees Of the Baptist College at
Des Moines, Iowa, have just been in
formed by John Rockefeller, that ne will
give the institution $4,000 on condition
that like sum is raised by the trustees
themselves. The institution is affiliated
with Chicago University.
The Republican Campaign Text Book.
issued at tle beginning OF each Presiden-
tial campaign by the Republican National
Committee, has arrived at national head
quarters.
The topics discussed are national pros
perity and its effect on the business ele-
ments; the currency question, conditions
in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines,
while the latter part of the book is de-
voted to a defense of so-called imperial
ism.
Governor Crane, of Massachusetts, is
so much of a reader that he never goes
about without several small books in his
pockets. Talking on almost any topic he
will say: .Apropos of that, I've just been
reading''-and will dive into a pocket and
bring out a book, find that is not the
volume ne is in search Of and go for
another pocket, and SO on until he gets
the book he happens to have in mind.
In every pocket, however, there seems
TO be a book of some sort.
General Miles has received from a pri-
vate soldier in the Philippines a box OF
cigarettes native to those islands. 1nclosed

heard me say how much I wanted to
smoke, and you Immediately had an Or
Derby give me several cigars. now desire
to return the compliment.
Lord Roberts never learned the art of
dictatin; his dispatches, and always has
to write them out with his own hand. His

orders into characters more readily deci-
pherable

CURRENT TOPICS.

The Brunswick Gazette in reply to our
remark that church property in Virginia
would never be taxed until the churches
themselves should refuse to be exempted
says:
What our contemporary says is doubt
less true There is not likely TO be any
restriction imposed upon this power 10 eA-
empt until the churches themselves ASK IT,
but that furnishes no reason why the SUD
ject should not be agitated ana discus9eu'
1t is in this way that right ana Jusuce
are eached and we believe that when the
churches are made to perceive the ABUSE
and the Injustice that have grown up IN
der the act Of the Legislature passed III

present Constitution, they will not be slow
to recognize the necessity for a Limitation OF
that power and to join in the demand Tor

The Charlotte. n. C. Observer says.

The Charlotte n. C. Observer says:
THE Richmond Times, which did
great deal toward carrying this State for
the Constitutional amendment, draws this
enlinently correct conclusion from present
movements in North Carolina:
The great objects in eliminating the
negro vote are to prevent corrupt elections
and corr apt government, to prevent trouble
between the races and to enable the whites
to vote their honest sentiments at the
polls. If these OBJECTS are not attained in
North Carolina through the adoption OF
the Constitutional amendment, the fight
has been made in vain.
The fight hes not been made in VAN;
the people OF North Carolina have shaken
off the incubus OF the race issue ana they
intend to enjoy the freedom thereby Cd
tanned, even though they are made the
victims of vicious attacks or lnslnuatlons
from newspaper purveyors OF low argu-'
ments, peanut politicians. The white
people of this State have stood for a
heroic fight and do not intend to lose the
benefit of the victory because few people
find themselves out of employment. The
race issue is dead one in North Caro-
lima
Reproducing the paragraph concerning
the alleged finding Of the death mask OF
General Lee, the Stanton News says:
THE above has been going the rounds
for some weeks, ana may be an accurate
statement OF the facts, but it does not
correspond with our recollection of the
occurrence. Unless we are wrong, the
mask vas made in General Lees lifetime,
a year or so before his death. The writer
was in Lexington a the time the mask
was made, and knew the circumstances.
and remembers them as he states them,
but he is not positive in regard to- it. There
ought to be persons in Lexington who were
concerned in the affair, and who know the
exact facts.
whatever the facts, the mask is OF
great value, and should be reproduced and
carefnlil preserved"

A Standard Among News
papers,.

Rejecting in its widening circulation
and increased advertising patronage
the prosperity that marks the opening
OF the new year The Pittsburg Times
more than ever impresses upon its
readers the excellence of its high
standard and the success of its efforts
to make a model paper for the indi-
vidual and for the family The Times
Is a newspaper, sparing no pains nor
expense to cover the world thoroughly
every day, that its current page Of his
tory may be complete, and in its longer
range overlooking nothing that occurs
at home. 1t is clean, dignifled and re-
liable, certain that no lack of these
features can be made up in offensive
sensationalism. 1t can be taken into
the family circle with confidence thai
its columns are filed with wholesome
instruction and entertainment. Wher-
ever known The Times is recognized
as the best type of concise, crisp and
complete newspaper, and among news
paper men it Is the publication with
which comparisons of excellence are
made While The Times Is Republican,
IN politics, 1t realizes that others have
a right to be on earth, and that poll
tics are not everything. When one
cent a day will buy morning paper 1t
is foolish to be without one The
Times is three dollars year or six
cents a week, and worth the money.

w. Larsen, Walter Lennox, Sr, Bar
ney McDonough, Gilbert Gardner,
Harry Levian, j. w, Cope, Robert

ger, Dorothy Hammack, Emily Stowe,
Josephine Shepherd and Ada Craven.
The action OF Jones" all takes place

a prominent eastern university. The
professors family consists of his wife,
two aughters-Marporie and Minerva
the former romantic girl, who is
engaged to good young man, who
isn't good, and the latter almost as
learned as the goddess after whom she
was named his ward, Cissy, who has
been west for her health, and has
found it, his wife's maiden sister, AL
vina, and a Swedish servant girl, Hell
ma. The farce has two very amusing
sub-plots, which together with the
main theme, furnish the ground work
for some of the most amusing compll-
cations seen in any farce of recent
years. l.. M. LUCHS, Mgr,

"King of the Opium Ring"

The Chinese-American play, "The
King of the Opium Ring" by C. E.
Blaney and c. A. Taylor, which scored
such a popular success at the Academy
of Music, New York. last spring, will
be presented at the Auditorium on
Tuesday, Feb 6. 1t is very elaborate
in scenic effects, and tells very in
teresting and thrilling stcry of Chin
ese-American life in the far West. The
plot deals with opium smuggling, The
abduction of a beautiful white girl by
Chinest highbinders of San Francisco,
and her rescue by a gallant lover in
the Custom House, who finds her dis
guised as a China woman before the
altar of Joss under the hypnotic in
fiuence of an Oriental sorcerer, who is
about to join her in wedlock to a col
lege educated Chinaman of fabulous
wealth. The first act shows the bay of
San Francisco and the Golden Gate,
and the escape of the smugglers' yacht
Halycon. The second act the under
ground home of the Highbinders, and
the raid of an opium joint. The third
act, Chinatown, San Francisco, on
Chinese New Years eve, and thrill
ing rescue of the girl by human tow
er of Chinks. This is said to be acme
of sensational climaxes. The last act
is wealth of Oriental splendor, show
ing the assembly rooms Of the Fong
Quay ociety, and introduces high class
specialties, a Chinese cake walk and
rag time ball. The scenery is by
d. Frank Dodge, of the Herald Square
Theatre, New York, who is familiar
with the scenes of the play, he being a
native of Frisco. The authors have
taken their characters from life, and
were central figures in the stirring
scenes which they picture, of that IA
tai ring which so long was a terror to
the Custom Houses of the Pacific
slope. M. G. SEIPEL, Mgr.

Devils Island"

The celebrated Dreyfus case is the
subject to be presented at the Auditor
ium shortly. 1t is entitled Devils Is
land and is described as one of the
forcible kind from a dramatic stand
point, possessing human interest of
rare quality. The precise nature of
the charge, against Capt. Dreyfus has
never been made public, but he was
found guilty of high treason against
France and secret court martial, held
at Paris Dec 10Th, 1894, passed sent
ence upon him. The document which
served to cinvict Dreyfus of furnishing
state secrets to foreign power has
been pronounced a base forgery by
eminent experts. The suicide of Col.
Henry, Of the French army, for alleg-
ed completely in the alleged forgeries,
the arrest of Col. Piquart and the de-
parture of Count Esterhazy awakened
general interest in the case of Dreyfus,
and threatened the disruption of the
French Cabinet. Meanwhile Capt.
Dreyfus languished a prisoner for life
in steel cage on the desolte little is
land called Devils Island, off the coast
of French Gulnna. his devoted wife
and friends struggling to obtain JUS
