COMING BIG ATTRACTIONS.

A Word to the Public from MT. Bunnell.
 The following timely and pertinent statement of interest to the general public was issued by G. B. Bunnel last evening:
 c. B. Bunnell, the advocate of the most popular scale of prices and honest practices says to his patrons
 "Open Your Eyes"
 In view of many important engage ments made for great shows to appear at the Hyperion theater on early dates, make one more appeal, asking you to use only common sense in purchasing tickets at proper places and time. Heed not the cry of speculators on street cor ners asking you to buy seats whereby extortion and deception is practiced on bosh location and prices.
 Many unkind remarks are often made the management through ig- of the true state of facts on this particular subject, that reflects discred- it upon somebody not to blame. and I throw out the defiant challenge to any and all parties interested to show any other intention on my part, or any transaction other than to insist upon the patrons purchasing their tickets at the proper time and place--the box of fice--personally or by their own order direct, to ensure good treatment always.

years ago was, until poor health made

moved his family to Philadelphia three
years ago to reembark in business. but
his sufferings caused failure to his I'M
fortunate end.
Mrs. Springer and her two children
have made their home in Duluth,

They are a most loveable family and
the sympathy of all goes out to them

BRAwLEY AT THE WHITE HOUSE
South Carolina Judge Has Talk
with President.

Washington, Oct. 2S.-Judge Brawley
arrived here this morning from
Charleston on his way to New York on
private business. He stopped over long
enough to have a private interview
with the President in accordance with
a previous engagement. Judge Braw-
ley was with the President in the cab
met room for a short time and it is un-
derstood the political situation in South
Carolina was one of the topics dis
cussed.
Judge Brawley declined to state the
object of his mission, further than to
say that while here some time ago the
President expressed a desire to have
further talk with him on certain SUBJ
jects, and to-day's visit was in ac-
cordance with the desire of the Presi-
dent.
1t was suggested that Judge Braw-
leys call might have had some bearing
upon the efforts being made to bring
about a change in the office of United
States marshal in South Carolina, but
/ am assured that the marshalship had
nothing whatever to do with Judge
Brawley's visit. In this connection 1t
is stated upon excellent authority that
the President does not intend to make
any change in the marshals office I'M
til Marshal Melton's term expires.

DISCUSSED GEORGIA POLITICS.
Chairman Walter Johnson Calls on
President Roosevelt.

Chairman Walter johnson Calls on
President Roosevelt.
Washington, Oct. 2S.-Georgia politics
was the subject of short talk to-day
between the President and Walter
Johnson, chairman of the Republican
State Committee of Georgia. Mr..
Johnson's mission was to ascertain
what disposition is to be made of the
federal patronage in his state under
the new administration, and also
whether the recommendations of the
regular Republican organizations are
to be considered. At present there are
no important offices in Georgia under
consideration, as the terms of the in
cumbents do not expire until several
months to come.
The President is not anxious to take
up the Georgia cases until the time ar
rives, for he has other more important
matters to occupy his time. He had a
brief talk with Mr.. Johnson that in a
general way repeated what he has said
to others on a similar subject, that he
proposed to use his best efforts to select
the best available men for appointment
to the federal offices in Georgia, just
the same as he does Alabama and
South Carolina. Mr.. Johnson, after
leaving the White House, went to the
Postoff1ce Department and made sew
eral recommendations for minor postal
changes.

GEN. REYES ADDRESS
CoLoMBIA's Grief EXPLAINS HIS

the Secretaries to Retire, which
They Do in Great Ill Humor.
City of Mexico, Oct. 2S.-Gen. Rafael
Reyes. delegate to the Pan-American
conference from Colombia and presi-
dent of that country, said to-day to the
representative of the Associated Press
in allusion to the Washington COM
ment on his speech at the banquet of
Mexico's City Council to the delegates
in which he paid tribute TO Spain:
II see nothing to modify in my words
if properly understood. On the one
hand it seemed to me natural and
proper on an occasion when the repre-
sentatives of all the nations of Spanish
origin on this continent were gathered
together, to recall the common source
of our civilization and pay tribute OF
gratitude to our common mother coun-
try; on the other hand I stated that
believed the United States delegates. as
representatives of generous people,
would indorse that act as eminently
right and proper. I also affirmed that
the mission OF the United States was
one of progress, civilization and liberty,
which it would carry over the continent
by means of its railroads and indus

sentiments of or between those senti-
ments and the recognition that in all
the interests of the American continent
the United States ought to take the
lead as along with Mexico it did in
| converting this conference"
Gen. Reyes added that he had been
privately congratulated on his speech
| by Mr.. Davis and John Barrett, the
American delegates, so evidently they
had seen nothing blameworthy in it.
Secretaries DoubIy Offended.
A slight misunderstanding occurred
at this mornings session. When the

hold a secret session of delegates ex-

offense and on leaving the room, de-
clared they would not return. 1t de-
veloped that the subject which it was
desired to treat in secret, was an Incl
! dent at the banquet of the City Council
when only the delegates were invited
and no secretaries. This was a neces-
sary measure, as no room in the City
Hall would have been large enough tc
contain the party had the secretaries
been invited. especially as some of the
South American delegations have az
many or more secretaries than dele
gates It was desired at the secre
session to explain the occasion for non
invitations of the secretaries to thu
banquet, and to say that no slight hat
been intended. But curiously enough
the action taken with a view to remove
the offense, resulted in giving new Of
| Tense to some.
The session this morning was taker
up with discussions on relations.
The comments of the German press
on the an-American Congress fur
nished much matter for Informal dis
cussion among the delegates to-day.

He objects to the Absorption of
Army Control by the stan Depart
ments.
Washington, Oct. 2S.--Lieut. Gen.
Miles. in his annual report. gives the
total strength of the army at the pres
ent time as s4,513. Of which number 3d.
S74 are in the United States, 1929 in
the Philippines, 4,914 in Cuba, the re-
mainder. in small detachments. being
in Porto Rico. Hawaii. China and Alas
ka. He says it is expected that the
force in Cuba will be very much re-
duced, and hopes that the force in the
Philippines also can be reduced.
Gen. Miles does not approve of the
present organization of the Artillery
Corps, saying that it establishes anoth-
er bureau in Washington. He believes
in the former regimental organization.
Speaking of the army canteen, which is
abolished by the army reorganization
law, he says that no injury has re-
suited, and in the main, the law has
been beneficial.
Gen. Miles states his objections 20
the management of military affairs in
the War Department in the following
language:
The tendency has been to absorb
and usurp the entire conduct of the
military establishment in the city of
Washington and especially in the staff
departments. This has been found
most injurious in other armies, and is
one of the principal defects in our own
system. recommend that decentral-
ization be effected as far as possible.
and that all proper and lawful authori-
ty be restored to subordinate COM
manders who are provided with an eff
safely entrusted with responsibility for
the efficient and faithful administra-
ton of military affairs commensurate
with their important commands"

Not Worrying over the Fate of the
Anarchist and Assassin.
Cleveland, o., Oct. 2S.-The family Of
Leon Czolgosz, whose members are in
this city, show as little concern over
the fate of their son and brother as If
he bore no relation whatever to them
The seeming Indifference is remark
able.
The father of the assassin was down
tonight in conference with Chief OF
Police Corner. The father of Leon
Czolgosz said tonight that he had
never received a letter from his son
since his arrival at Auburn, nor had
he ever learned anything from him
that would throw light upon the cause
of his terrible crime.
