The vessel rode out the gale all right

In some parts of the country the rain

from the unusual drouth.

While the state leaders are making
up their slate for next year, the Wor-
cester Democrats are getting a lively
hustle on for the city campaign, espe-
cially for the caucuses Monday night.
There is little to say about the con-
tests, except that in Wards three and
four every man who has a vote in
Democratic caucus is being sought for
his support. In Ward three, the lively
fight is for the Common Council nomi-
nation. Councilmen John H. Connolly
and Emil Zaeder are both out for re-
election, and they are being opposed
by John ]. Sexton and Patrick Nc
Hugh. The School Committee contest
is not what 1t used to be- as Dr. Fran
els A. Underwood goes back without
opposition.
In the other Democratic ward, the
reverse is true. The warm fight is on
between rivals for the School Commit
tee nomination. DR.. John t. McGilll-
cuddy is seeking a reelection, but he
| is opposed by DIR. Michael j. O'Reilly,
and the campaign between them Is GER

night that the story is without foun-

pose of working up disaffection against
the mayor in the ward. He says the
mayor is not taking any part in the
campaign for any candidate, and he
would rather lose his chance of being
elected to the council than to have the
mayor beaten by the publication of
such stories, which are not true.

MISS HOLLAND IN "THE
POWER BEHIND THE THRONE

"The Power Behind the Throne,
with Mildred Holland as Aria was seen
for the first time in Worcester at the
Worcester Theatre last night. The play
is an adaptation of Schiller's "kabale
und IAebe" and has for its locale an
Austrian province such as existed dur
ing the latter part of the 18th century.
The role Miss Holland plays Is that Of
the innocent daughter of a court musi-
clan, who is loved by baron, son of
the president of the principally. She
returns the love of the young baron
and their marriage Is consented to by
Aria's father. The president, how
ever, objects to his son marrying a
commoner, and in order to please the
prince, asks for his son the hand of the
Duchess Won Waldheim, notorious
woman Of the court. The baron reftls-
es to accept the proposition, and iii or
der to compel him to do as his father
wishes, Aria's father and mother are
seized and the old musician placed in
prison. In order to save her mother
from the pillory, Aria writes compro-
missing letter to the Count Won Oberwels
and at the order of the Duchess, to save
her father from execution, agrees to be
seen with the Count at a ball. The
Baron, with these proofs in his face,
believes her faithless and tries to kill
her, and to end his own life at the
same time, but the poison which he
places in the glasses turns out to be
a sleeping powder, and the two are
saved and the Duchess COMPOUNDED.
Miss Holland does very good work
all through the piece, and at the eli
max of the third act rises to height
of eloquence hardly expected of her
She is a careful actress and well suited
to the part she plays, and at no time
does she fail to put into it all the life
and all the delicacy 1T demands. The
supporting company is competent, and
the settings and costumes are magni-
ficent.
