A Pretty Play Seen at Harper's Theatre
Last Night.
1t has been months since as pretty
a play as 1.-The Ministers's Son" has
been seen on the stage of Harper's
theatre. 1t was presented last night
and had an audience that taxed the
capacity of the house, and it deserved
it, TOO, which, unfortunately, cannot
be said of the majority of attractions
that have been coming this way
w. b Patton, who essays The title
role, is young man whose acting is
very much after the style of Sol
Smith Russell-in fact his play in
places bars striking similarity to
that great comedians Poor Rela-
ton" Mr.. Patton has a play that is
good for years, and doubtless if he
happens this way in the future he
will receive even a warmer welcome
than he was given last night.

BY action taken by the traffic de-

Davenport, held until recently by l..
F Berry, was abolished and the af-
fairs of the cflice were returned to
the jurisdiction of Division Freight
and Passenger Agent III. ID. Mack, of
this city.
This is not indicating that the busi-
ness on the other side is failing to
come up to expectations, but rather
as a compliment to Mr.. Mack. who
has previously demonstrated his abil-
ity to look after the company's bust
ness there in addition to his other
affairs The city Office in Davenport
will of course be retained as at pres

THE PLIGHT OF A TENOR.

A certain tenor who in the summer
Of 1897 was touring with company
through the southern states, was smit-
ten with the charms of lady who for
several consecutive nights had been
seated in the stalls He inquired and,
as he thought, ascertained her address.
So one night, after having with much
trouble surmounted a very lofty WALL
he approached the mansion and lifted
up his voice in song. Suddenly he felt
himself seized from behind and ere he
could offer any resistance was hustled
into the house by two stalwart fellows,
who thrust him into room and locked
the door.
Early next morning he was visited
by gentleman, who, after eyeing him
with astonishment, demanded the rea-
son Of his presence, as he was not pa
tient. The singer explained, whereup-
on the other burst into a roar Of laugh
ter, remarking when he had regained
his composure that if people saw fit
to serenade in the grounds Of a private
asylum they must not be surprised IL
they were taken for escaped lunatics.
Another serenading story had for it's
scene Brighton, England. A youthful
lover with a taste for song had tracked,
as he thought to her house, her who
held his heart captive. More, he had
in his own mind, discovered her room.
So when one night shadow was cast
upon the blind he became vocal. Pres
entity the sash was lifted and an old
lady looked forth.
Thank you, my man." croaked a
feeble voice. 'Tis very sweet, but
would you sing q little louder? I an
rather deaf" The would-be Romeo
fled.

daughter in the style to which she has

her a practical education. She cannot

THE FEDERAL PATRoNAGE.-What Is
the use for some Of the newspapers Of
this state to keep harping upon the fact
that McLaurin controls the federal pat
ronage in this state and has Democrats
appointed to office? For our part we
would rather see good Democrats, who
will not change their party affiliations
for the sake of an office, put in office
any day rather than have Republicans
appointed to the same office, and If
President Roosevelt should appoint Ne
groes as postmasters and revenue COL
lectors he would be burned in effigy in

should be upheld by our people in his
efforts to have good men appointed to

EVEN THE ALPS ARE UP-To-DATE.-
John w. Gates tells a story ABOUT a
friend Of his who went into the Alps
last summer in an effort to escape
from ''all the modern improvements
of life, says the New York Times. MY
friend, began the ascent to the hos
pice Of st. Bernard" said Mr.. Gates.
when about an hours climb from the
pass he was stopped by dense fog.
He waited gleefully, expecting to be
rescued by the dogs, and so be able to
come back to us with thrilling story.
The dogs did not come, however, and
the fog partly lifted. So he resumed
his climb, and finally arrived at the
hospice, where he was welcomed warm
ly by the brothers. His first question
was:
why did you not send the dogs
out in so dangerous fog?'
"He nearly dropped from his chair
when one of the brothers said:
"'You did not telephone u.s.
Telephone your he calculated.
Yes was the answer. You see,
shelters have been built all along the
climb, and each shelter has been pro-
vided with a telephone. If a fog comes
up all one has to do is to go to the near
est shelter and telephone. We i'm
mediately send a man and dog to
that shelter. The dog carries, bread,
cheese and wine. AS we know at just
what shelter the climber is no time is
lost in looking for him."
Mr.. Gates says his friend was so dis
gusted with having his romantic no
tions knocked in the head that he left
Switzerland at once.
