EvANGELINE.

For nearly a quarter of a century Rice's beautiful "Evangeline'' has been a theatrical entertainment for the masses. During that time no few CT than 2.5O0 rerformances of the piece have been given. Scores of lavishly mounted extrava ganzas and comic cneras have been given during ''J7vangeline's' long life. but have disappeared as completely as many of their patrons. "EvanepIine" is very much alive and is charming by its mplodionsness and the cleanliness of ifs motive. Next Friday evening at Pnli's fheater is the date set for it's apoeara &e e. It will he pnder the per- eonal d44sfion of Edward E. Rice. the master of extravaganza. Seats 60 on sale tomorrow.

sault at the Hands of a D~- gerous Character.

"I did not formerly believe that dogs possess an instinct by which they can read character in human be- ings,' remarked an Indianapolis woman to a Journal reporter, "but now am positive it is true. I had an experience last night that was equivalent to demonstration.
 "A few days ago long, lank yellow dog, about three feet high, of decid- edly unprepossessing appearance ex- cept for it's benevolent face, came to our house. and finding me standing at the kitchen door, began to wag his

tail earnestly and to look into my face with a gaze that contained an unspealzable appeal for something to eat. Of course I could not resist the plea of a dumb brute that was hun gry. What woman can? did not see it any more until last night when l had occasion to go up toyn at a rather late hour. I had hardly gone a few feet from my house before l heard the delicate batter Of animal feet back of me. Looking around saw my four-fcoted pensioner of a few days before, still wagging his tail, but this time looking at me with only gratitude and kindly feeling in his face. I was not particularly well pleased at being followed through the public streets by such sorry-looking creature, but when told the dog to go back he gently refused to obey.
 ssWhen I had accomplished the pur- pose of my errand and turned to re- trace my steps homeward the dog was there to accompany me. Just as we were turning off the Circle into one of the principal streets man stepped rudely into my pathway ana grinned at me. Quick as a flash the dog sprang in front of me, and, curl ing his lips, began to growl in most terrifying way, saying in manner as intelligible as if he had employed human utterance: I guess you had better clear out of here at once.'
 s'Fhe man lost little time in re- treating to the dark corner from which he had come, and the rest of the way home, you may be very sure, paid great deal of attention to my humble protector

all government. So 1t is common
enemy and should be treated as such.
When the plague or pestilence
comes the authorities have ample pow.
or to stamp it out. They can prevent
the entrance of infected persons at
the ports of the country. They can
remove. restrain or Danish those who
attempt TO spread the pestilence.
Anarchy is pestilential to this coun-
try and we have the right to refuse
citizenship OF residence to those who
would spread the disease.
Stamp out anarchy as you would
stamp out smallpox!
An avowed anarchist, OF one duly
convicted Of affiliating with an organi-
cation that is pledged to destroy the
government, should have no dwelling
place with or among us. We are not
sanguinary enough to demand his life
unless he commits murder, but it is
our right and our duty to deport him
from the country that he attempts to
destroy.
There are islands in the Pacific
ocean that would be fit dwelling places
for these moral lepers. Let them be
banished, where they will have oppor-
tunities, and where they will be COM
PEELED to live by the fruits of their
cwn labor. isolated fro mall others,
where under strict discipline they may
be restrained from crimes against hui
mainly and civilization.
Thus will we be faithful to the trust
imposed upon us by those who shed
their blood in establishing this govern
ment, and to those who fought four
years to maintain its integrity We
will also be true to the grand old plo-
neers who laid the foundations Of our
state on the principles of order, justice
and liberty.

which laws proceed.
The right of a government to live,
carries with it the right of self de-
tense; bearing in mind that the con-
stitutional guaranty OF free speech
does not imply that this is license to
destroy the constitution itself; that
peaceable assembling of the people
cannot be possible if its object be to
bring about reign of terror; and that
q free press does not mean an engine
of war against the government.
There can scarcely be limit pre-
scribed as to the right of any citizen
! to criticise the acts of any admins
tration OF the government, which is
composed of a group of men who are
not infallible, but we are all agreed
that the government itself is that
which must not be assaulted except al
| the peril OF those who assail it. 4
free government is impossible where
there is a restriction of the right of a
citizen to exercise his sovereignty hut
the citizen must be careful that he
| does not attack or attempt to destroy
/ that which gives him license to eXer-
else that sovereignty.
| The press should be free to object
| to any administrative act but the
press should be careful that it docs
not attack or attempt to cut down that
/ which makes it free press under con-
stitutional restrictions. Partisans who
manage to secure control of an admin,
istration may claim that their choice
/ of a group OF officers. constitutes the
! government itself but this claim il en-
/, forced. would be subvcrsion of the
constitution. The government may,
and does exist without the administra-
/ ton but the administration derives its
4 life from the government. Men com
pose the administration and such men
may die but the government lives not,
withstanding men may die.
4 We are brought back again to con
slider this proposition: has this gov
crnment the right to preserve itself
and restrain those who would subvert
lit?
4 Anarchy places itself beyond the
pale of the constitution and is not to
be regarded as a political organization
of the ordinary kind. Anarchy is out
side of all these, because it does not
appeal to the constitution, but opposes

NEW STORAGE BATTERY
Edison's Latest Invention of the
Greatest Importance in the
Electrical World.

New York, April Thomas A.
Edison has scored again. Companies
are tumbling over each other in an at
tempt to obtain his new storage bat
terry, which the electrical experts say
will revolutionize the street railroad
and automobile business. Edison has
refused to dispose Of his new patents,
believing that he can do better by SELL
ing storage batteries to anybody that
needs them than by selling the exclu-
sive right to one corporation.
The new batteries will weigh half as
much as those now in use and will last
ten times as long. II seems to do
away with all the disadvantages of
the systems now in use. For instance,
batteries of thetype employed on street
car lines here, while doing the work,
are heavy, because ofthe great amount
of huid-sulphuric acid and water that
are required, are subject to deteriora-
tion by chemical action, and for some
reason not clearly understood cannot
be taxed for more than ~ per cent OF
the energy they contain without ruin
ing the battery.
Edison does away with much of the
fluid. For the lead heretofore used
Edison has substituted complimentary
plates of cadmium and copper. The
copper is pulverized as fine as flour and
compressed enough to prevent it's
crumbling.
Between the plates of cadmium and
copper Edison places thin sheets of
asbestos, moistened with the electro
lyte-the liquid employed in batteries
to produce the chemical action re-
quired. In these batteries is ten per
cent solution of caustic soda. Only Il
very little liquid is required asagainst
the great quantity of the old-style
storage batteries.

BINDING TWlNE CHEAP
Kansas Penitentiary tOSeIl it at Eight
and ne-half Cents.

Topeka, April 8-Prison binding
twine will be sold to farmers this year
at eight and one-half cents per pound
in small lots, or eight and one-fourth
cents in lots of 10000 pounds or over.
This is two cents pound cheaper
than twine sold last year. The reduc'
tion is caused by the drop in raw ma
terial. The prices fixed by the prison
management this time are the same as
the trusts get from the dealers. So
the dealers can, if they wish, buy Of
the prison factory instead of the twine
trust. The only difference is that if
they deal with the prison factory they
must pay cash. The farmers, by buy
ing direct from the prison factory,
can save two cents a pound on their
twine.
Last year the prison factory had
over &, 1000 customers. II is estimated
that 80 per cent of these customers will
buy twine again this year. The plant
is now running at full capacity.
Warden Tomlinson has already man
ufactured 600, 600 pounds and has it on
hand for early delivery. The plant
turns out 100000 pounds of twine a
month. Orders for twine are coming
in already.

No FURTHER HITCH
Way Clear For Agreement Between
China and Powers.

Peking, April Mr.. Rockhill,
United States special commissioner a.
Peking, had a long interview yester-
day with Ii Hung Chang, who salts
fed him that there is not likely to be
any further important hitch in the ne
gotiations for a settlement between
China and the powers. China agreed
to the list of punishments submitted
by the ministers of the powers, asking
only one concession, namely, depriva-
tion of Office instead of banishment in
the case of a man who isseventy years
of age. To this the ministers have
agreed.
