OHIO DEMOCRATS DIVIDED.

Keep on adding to the list of Ohio
counties where the Democrats are d.
vided among themselves and can't
agree upon so simple matter as the
principal plank Of their party plat
forms at the last two national con-
ventions of the Democracy. We have
already noted how the Van Vert
county and Summit county Democrats
are not to be kept out of support for
MIR. Bryan and his free silver doc
trine, and now Champaign and Darke
counties are manifesting symptoms of
uneasiness, according to the Urbana
Times-C Citizen, which says:
DO not think Democratic politics
all over Ohio is in the same state Of
here. Over in Darke county, G. r.
Munson, editor of the Arcanum En-
terprise and member of the county
executive committee. has started
something" by charging the state del.
egates from that county with bad
faith to the cause of free silver, and
flaying them for voting against the
Finley resolution endorsing the Kan
sas City platform. Sound money Dem
ocrats want him ousted from the com
mittee."
And thus it appears that the Co
lumbus convention did not settle
things to the satisfaction Of every
body after all We should like to have
the testimony of the Democrats of tn,
west end of Champaign county.

TOLEDO ADJUSTMENTS.
Mamdc AhnmA, Now Piny.

A rare treat is anticipated by theatre
goers in the engagement Of Maude Ad-
ans, at the Valentine theatre next Fri
day and Saturday nights and Saturday
matinee. 1t will be the opening OF her
present season, aud she will appear In
comedy in four acts, by J. M. Barrie,
the author OF The Little Minister" :"
All the information that has been given
thus far is that the play is a comedy in
four acts; that the scene is laid In En-
gland and that the action takes place
during the time OF the Napoleonic war.
On Miss Adams great histrionic gifts
there is scarcely any need to comment
ut this time. She has made for herself
a place among the greatest actresses of
her time, and has won degree OF affec-
tion and personal esteem from theatre
goers such as has not been accorded to
any other actor. She enjoys quality
OF popularity which includes the finest
quality OF dignity and respect, and her
distinction as the favorite American ac-
tress is unquestioned. Her appearance
in new character is in itself a treat,
and, Ia this instance it is particularly
true. for there is no reason to believe
that she will present tyne Of charac-
ter showing all her graces and charm
as commedienue, in some respects
akin TO those exquisite impersonations
in which she first Won fame.
Miss Adams will as usual, have a
large and splendid company. The pro-
duction will be beautiful and an elab-
crate one, such as distinguishes all Of
Manager Charles Frohman's important
productions.

Good Bill at Burt's.

"Side Tracked" with julie Walters
the funny tramp is the attraction at
Bhrts the last three days OF this week
commencing Thursday matinee. aside
Tracked is pronounced to be one OF
the funniest conglomerations OF farce
on the road and lovers of light comedy
ard high class vaudeville specialties
will no doubt be highly entertained by
the able star and his associates on their
appearance here. Mr.. Walters vaga-
bond is not OF the vulgar, Objectionable
sort; but rather tramp one would not
hesitate to come ir contact with even
on dark night.

attraction at the Lyceum the first half
OF next week.

ences this week. 1t closes Saturday
