PERSISTENCE WINS.

In recent number of Success it was
affirmed that "a mans success in life
is usually in proportion to his conf
dence in himself and the courage, per-
sistence and energy with which he
pursues his aim" The man who be-
lieves in himself is invariably daring
and persistent advertiser of his bOsi-
ness. Advertising is the means by
which he impresses the world with his
qualities.

10 THE PUBLIC.

The Marietta Chautauqua Association
was organized for the purpose of giving
high order of entertainment to the
people of Marietta, The stockholders
have assumed great financial burden
in providing for this purely educational
enterprise in our city.
In order to secure its success and
permanency, it must have liberal pat
ronage and support from our citizens.
We take this method of calling your
attention to the programme for the
present which speaks eloquently of its
worth in history, poetry, music and
art and of its cost in labor and money
and earnestly request your kind con-
sideration.
Phis is not an eight hundred dollar
production as advertised elsewhere for
like purposes. but an attraction that
cost several thousand dollars to pre-
sent and which we are sure the people
Of Marietta will appreciate.
Please to see, therefore, how many
tickets you can purchased and respond
to this undertaking as literally as its
excellencies demand.
Season tickets are now on sale at the
Office of ] j. Black, Treasurer.
Respectfully,
The Marietta Chautauqua Association

POLITICIANS.

The politicians know that the people
are too busily concerned about the
meat and bread problem to give atten-
tion to running the government, and
therefore they shape the policy and
plans If those policies turn out bad,
the people suffer. Let us in Georgia
seek to shape matters.

PISTOL TOTERS.

A large number of old and young
negro men are owners OF pistols. They
have them about their homes and carry
them concealed in their pockets. They
are ready to shoot marshals, sheriffs or
citizens on the least provocation, es-
pecially if said negroes are filled up on
"blind tiger" juice. What is the REM
edy, and how can human life be made
secure? is problem worthy of thought

cash and will seek to put the idle

herence to law and a strict compliance
with common sense and honesty in all
public matters.

 Ut is now certain" says the An sonia Sentinel that the towns of An sonia and Seymour will not have elec- tric communication this year. This is caused by the exorbitant prices property owners ask for land through which the trolley will have to pass. For land that is ill the grand list at $1 200 the owners ask $S,O00, so that if the Connecticut Railway and Light ing company were to pay for right of way at the above rate it would cost $35, ,000. The road will not be built this year in consequence.
 A man who has just returned from the rural districts where he spent the past couple of months working for a farmer, told a reporter of the Demo- crat to-day that the hay crop was very poor this year. some of it being scarce ly worth the cost of cutting and saw ing He said that the farmers attri- bute this to the parched condition of the ground last year. '.The machines, 7 he said, 'cut so close to the earth that unless rain follows the operation the roots of the grass get burned and it takes some time before you can grow good hay on such places again. Many farmers did not cut the grass at all, but ploughed the land and put in some thing else"

POLITICS

Just at present are blowing through the air in a sort of cyclonic rage, and they will continue to do so for good long two months. Some of our good citiens who are at loggerheads at the friends in week or two; of course, that's good news. and some voters who are at present on very friendly terms will be bitter enemies shortly. and pos sibly remain so for all time. That should not be so. We will soon hear of clambakes being held here and there and everywhere just for socla- bility's sake" but you bet your boots politics will be served out on side dish every time Of course, there's nothing wrong about such gatherings; in fact. we like to see them, but we would much prefer to see good, rich, fresh roasted, nicely made coffee drank instead of the beverage generally used on such occasions, because it will not muddle the brain, but on the con trary would enlighten that organ to very great extent. Therefore. we ap- peal to all politicians. particularly the ward heelers, to begin now and drink nothing but our Tea and Coffee and see how much more easily you can convince the other fellows that they should be on the same side of the fence upon which you stand boldly and fearlessly.

 something of the bearing of the late Augustin Daly in his makeup, but un- like him, is invariably affable. Many years ago Mir Doris was very widely known as the proprietor of Doris cir GUS, one of the most successful of all travelling institutions of that order. After he retired from his control of a sawdust arena he went into the the atrica1 business. A number of months ago Marguerite Merington sent him her play, "Old Orchard" for considera- ton, and directly he read it felt as- sured that in this manuscript he had an assured success. He has been nearly year preparing 1t for public presentation. keeping constantly in mind the different characters and dreaming of them night and day. Every actor selected by him was nat urally the result of MT Doris thought ful portraiture. To further insure his success he engaged R. A. Roberts to rehearse the play.

WILD MAN IN THE WOODS.
A Most Startling Discovery Is Made by Two Hunters in the WiIds
 of Michigan.

Adolph Meiser and John Slattery two young men from Crystal Falls, Mich, who were hunting cartridges on the headwaters of the Deer river, about IA miles from that city, met what they assert was wild man. His hair was long and shaggy and long whiskers nearly covered his face, show ing that they had been growing for some time. The hunters got within 30 feet of the man before they saw him or he them, and all were surprised when the stranger snarled at them.
 Meiser attempted to talk to him, but all the response he could get was: Public, public, public" When Slattery and NIeiser moved forward the stranger gave terrible yell and darted into the bushes. He ran like a deer, bounding over the windfalls and stumps.
 The strange man was large, but had become emaciated from exposure and hunger. The clothes he had on were in shreds exposing his body to view. He carried part of gun barrel and tent pole in his hands and when found was eating the carcass of dead skunk.
 The Crystal Falls men hurried to town and reported the discovery, and a posse was organized to hunt for the man. It is thought that the man is some unfortunate Hdnter who has been lost in the woods and become insane from fright. The territory where the man was seen is a large stretch of woods, and a person might roam there for months without meeting anyone. The posse will stay out until they find the man.

Columbia-Shamrock yacht race are at tracting attention on all sides, as well as the regular vaudeville acts which are of extraordinary excellence. The farcica1 sketch, A Woman's Diem ma,' which May Wentworth and her comedy players present, is full of laughs, while Wihitelaw and How ard have everyone convulsed with their up-to-date funnyisms. Other acts are contributed by Lawrence and Harrington, Grant and Robinson, Mer- ritt and RoZella, the Rosseaus and Gar win and Platt. Prices for the matinee are 10 and 20 cents: for ladies, 10 cents to any part of the house; even ing prices for all, 10. 20 and 30 cents. Seats are never reserved, being always a case of first come, first served.
 THE VOLUNTEER ORGANIST."
 One of the extra attractions with The Volunteer Organist," which will be presented tomorrow afternoon and evening at Polls. is Master Willie Nel- son, the phenomenal boy soprano who formerly sang in the choir in Trinity church. New York city. Master Nel- sons voice Is likened unto that of a sweet-yoiced thrush who at break of morn awakens the thrifty granger from his nights peaceful slumber. It seems as though in singing no more effort is made by Master Nelson than is made by mad. babbling little brook as it rushes along over the stones in it's bed to the miniature wa terfaH that sooner or later lays ill it's course. Joyous and glad does the lit tie brook dash over the tiny precipice. the mellow sound of the gurgling wa ters being sweet music indeed. And so it is with Master Willie's gift. his voice. To hear him. sing ''The Palms, or ''The Holy City" accompanied by the big cathedral organ carried by the company, and not experience an ex- quisite thrill for which your conscience feels better afterward. would be al- most an impossibility for one of any fine feelings whatever. More likely it is that you will be moved to tears and be one of the enthralled hundreds to vehemently insist on an encore of this most churchly thing ever done on, the American stage. The tie between church and stage is made the more se- cure by the soul-sErring play, "The Volunteer Organist' Prices are 9, cents to $1, and for the matinee, 25 and 50 cents.

The Divineness of Love.

 How great is lovei how G alike, how Di-
 vine! How worthy to possess this soul of mine! It can itself forget; be patient. strong, In face of direst injury and wrong. It smites not back, when smitten on the
 cheek Is not resentful, petulant or weak; But with compassion for its deadliest foe-- Like him who fell by the assassin $ blow Trays that he be not hurt and if he live That God in mercy will his sin forgive, Oh that our love might know such love as
 this, A love so true, so full of tenderness, That nurses not itself; broods not OCT i'll: That yearns to know and do the Father s
 will; And sees in evil men what Jesus sees, And loves, and prays and dies for enemies. Through love like this all men are taught to love, And earth becomes at last like Heaven
 above. -Rev. Dwight Mallory Pratt, D. D., in N. Y. Observer. Suggested by President McKinley's at- tituoe to his assassin

aTHE GAMEKEEPER. 2

The new romantic Irish comedy drama, ''The Gamekeeper," which will be the attraction at Poli.s this even ing, has had much success and is de scribed as a novelty in it's field. A happy inspiration was manifested in the choosing of the title. It prepares the audience for an atmosphere at once new. strange and fascinating. No country in the world possesses so many elements of dramatic interest as dear old Ireland. where the line be- tween rich and poor. aristocrat and pauper, is more sharply drawn than anywhere else on earth. Derry Doo- Ian, "The Gamekeeper." is the lead ing role of this play. and is in the hands of Americas favorite singing and dancing comedian. Smith OTBrien, who for seven years starred i'll w. Ii. Powers's successful play. ''The Ivy Leaf" Both plays are from the pen of Con T. Murphy. "The Gamekeep- er'a is interwoven with divorce and characteristic threads of human in- terest. Some of the stage pictures portray the life of the Irish aristoc- racy. where high breeding and wealth are IouHu tO eutaiI IIle SstIIle pOlSldIlL sorrows as are found in the homes of the poor. Quite a vein of comedy runs through the play: genuine humor of scene and character: within the bounds which the mainly serious aims of the play necessitate runs a vein of rough and ready comedy The com pany .enga~ed is one of such superior excellence that capital performance is assured. Prices are 9, 35 and 50 cents.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.


 The remarkable vaudeville show which MT Poli has provided for the second week of his direction of the Jacques is attracting fully as much at tention as the first one. and is draw ing quite as largely. too. There are some remarkable vaudeville acts on the bill, and the vitograDh pictures. show ing scenes of the Yale bicentenniaI celebration and the Columbia-S Sham rock yacht race. are wonderfully real 1stic and interesting. One feature that attracts the multitude in connection with this regime of vaudeville is the fact that persons can drop in at any time during a performance and see a show that while incomplete in the sense that one does not see every act on the bill- is nevertheless complete in the sense that every act is in itself complete without any reference to the acts that precede or follow it. This feature has tended as much as any thing to popularize vaudeville in the large cities. and it will undoubtedly make it Dopular in Waterbury, too. With such excellent shows as Mr Poli fas provided during the two opening weeks. and with the growing popular IfV of the new reeime it is more tlian liFelv that the attendance this week will eclipse the immense figures Of last week. The wonderful vffngraph nic- lures of the Yale bicentennial and the
