Already several steam plants have
made experiments with the newly de-
Veloped oil found at Beaumont Texas,
as SO far the tests appear to have been
satisfactory. The Jennings Electric
Light and Power company put in the
necessary apparatus for using the oil
as fuel, and began it's use in it's large
plant, which supplies the town with
light and power. At Houston also ex-
periments have been made in the same
direction and with satisfactory results,
while several of the canal pumping
stations in Southwestern Louisiana
are getting ready to change their fuel
from coal and wood to oil. If after
full and sufficient experiments it is
found that the Beaumont oil will be as
cheap and as satisfactory in other re-
spects as coal, there is no telling the
extent of the demand that will be
made upon the oil wells for steam
heating purposes.

Dawes and His Candidacy.

Hon. Charles G.. Dawes. late comp
trOller of the United States treasury.
who Is in Rock Island today in the
advancement of his candidacy for the
seat now occupied by Hon. w. f..
Mason in the United States senate,
would undoubtedly have had the ear
nest endorsement of the national adj
ministration had President Mckinley
have lived. and may have the same
advantage as it * with Roosevelt in
the chair. At all events Dawes has
not the support of the state admin
istration. The Illinois executive has
other plans. There have been some
important developments in the re-
publican situation in the past 30 days.
Mr.. Yates and Mr.. Lorimer have
reached an understanding, and the
Chicago leader is now and hencefOrth
the dispenser of state patronage in
Chicago and Cook county. writes
John l.. Pickering in the St. Louis
Republic. This arrangement will last
until the governor changes his mind.
The pulse feeling during the re-
cent Illinois state fair. of the state
administration people. designed TO
discover whether Congressman Hop
kins would be an available candidate
to put against Mr.. Dawes, did not re-
suit in n definite declaration for Mr..
Hopkins.
Speaker Sherman's sharp reply TO
Gov. Yates scolding in his Lincoln
address has advanced the Sherman
sentiment several points, and so far
as the senatorial situation is CON
cerned. Dawes is still in the ring.
Last July the Republic predicted
that it would be Il close race of the
field against Charles G. Dawes, with
the chances in favor of Dawes; that
Dawes would win in the end, if he
had the good sense and ability to
maintain himself: that if he possess
ed these qualifications he could not
be beaten and if he was lacking in
any essential material he might eX-
pect defeat Since that time the en-
tire political map has been changed
in the nation, but more particularly
in Illinois. where the death of Presi-
dent Mckinley. it was believed ut
first. would eliminate Dawes from
state politics. People generally be-
Iieved that there was nothing to the
young man put the shadow of Nc
Kinley.
Now. says the Republic: This has
been demonstrated to be an error.
If anything Dawes has gained among
republicans. This is not by any means
attributable to the death of Mr.. Nc
KinIey. but 10 the fact that appears
to be growing stronger every day
that Dawes is bigger man than any
other republican who cares to make
the fight. \ gentleman who draws
good salary in one of the state de-
partments sized up the conditions TO
me the other day.
. Dawes is young. said he, and
the tendency of the times is to elect
yong men to the senate. Beyeridge,
of Indiana, is an illustration of the
idea. The old fellows will all have
to step aside in the west particularly.

Like good wine, it improves with age,
has been the unanimous verdict at
tanned by the revival of the great sue
cess, "A Run on the Bank" which will
occupy the stage of the Grand on
Thursday, headed by those quaint
comedy delineators, Pusey and st.
John, who have been starring for sew
eral seasons past under e. D. Stairs
management, and theatre-goers will
readily recall the success that they
achieved in their respective roles upon
previous visits to this city. Those
two gentlemen have been surrounded
by a company of unusual excellence,
comprising twenty-five artists selected
from the elite of the vaudeville and
farce comedy field. No expense has
been spared to make this organization
the foremost of the farce comedy ag-
gregations of the present season. The
piece itself fairly bristles with witty
dialogue, exquisite musical numbers,
sparkling s~pecialties, and with pretty
girls.

Mobile"


Prominent dramatic critics claim that
Lincoln j. Carriers thrilling drama,
Down Mobile" which ome to the
Grand this evening, is the best and
most faithful exposition OF southern
life produced in recent years. The
play, which is in four acts, is the result
of months of character study in the
South, and the characters depicted have
their counterparts to-day in Alabama.
In Down Mobile Mr.. Carter is said to
have not only endeavored to furnish
accurate portraits of interesting south
ern types, but to have framed his pic
lures in surroundings calculated to
show the best style of the modern
scene painters art. The result is a
series of true and realistic representa-
lions of the localities in which the Incl
dents Of the play occur. Theatre-goers
here will be able to judge for them
selves of the accuracy of Mr.. Carriers
delineation.
