WAS FINE PERFORMANCE
"Reart and sword Last Night Was a
Great Success


A beautiful performance was witnessed
by an unuRlany light Saturday night
attendance at the Crawford theater last
night. The attraction was Mr. Walker
Whiteside and a small but very capable
company. The company is small in
numbers but it does not require a large
cast to present the play. Heart and
Sword" is a romantic play and contains
some very strong situations. Interest
never lags. tt is not a "talky play and
every line has a direct bearing in the
plot. It presents a very pretty story,
full Of intense interest and is wonderful
" brought out by Mr.. Whiteside and an
exceedingly good company. 1t was the
first appearance in Wichita for this great
and gifted actor who is better known in
the east and north than here He is an
exceptionally handsome young man.
Every movement is graceful and his voice
is musical There is nothing in Mr..
Whiteside's work as the romantic Prince
Victor that would indicate that although
young, he has achieved fame as an artist
in Interpreting Shakespearian tragedy
His work is very finished and the only
regret Of the auditor is that he does not
appear oftener and that the play is not
longer. The audience went away wish
ing for more. Mr.. Whiteside was well
received and found lasting favor with
Wichita theater goers who would be glad
to have him appear in Wichita again.
Miss Leila Wostan as Princess Sylvia
delineated the role with much merit and
pleased every one. The entire cast did
good work. the play was finely costumed
and well staged with appreciated scenery.
Everything has the appearance Of fresh
ness and of a very high standard. A
pleasing feature Of the performance was
the recitation of Rudyard Kipplings
poem, The Absent Minded Beggar" b.
Miss Julia RolDh It was beautifully
recited and is one Of the best recitations
ever heard in Wichita Miss Rolph was
deservedly applauded. Next attraction,

NEW ORLEANS COTTON MARKET.
Murphy & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York, July 30.-Local prices in
the early market were l to 3 points
lower. There was little dealing and lit
tie interest displayed pending receipt
of the weekly Washington crop report.
Rain fell at Corpus Christi, and Au-
gusta to a small extent. Gables we're
without features, and the general feel
ing was one of Indifference pending
fresh crop news with tendency to ac-
cept good conditions in Texas. The
forecast for to-day was for fair wealth
er, except occasional showers along the
coast, and fair for Oklahoma and In
dian Territory. Believers in full Texas
crop were reluctant to sell with the
possibility of August conditions cails-
ing a rally change. The Agricultural
Department announced postponement
of the bureau report until Monday next.
Cables were lis higher for spots, and
lower for futures. The weekly bureau
report showed Texas below the aver
age condition. Opinions are divided as
to the probable character of the
monthly bureau report. Some pretend
to look for a good showing. and some
for worse. The general-average for Au-
gust last was 49, including .S3 for
Texas. The June condition last year
was IL, and in July rs. There is no
telling what figures will be disclosed,
so conflicting are the Texas wires as
to the extent of drought, and the relief
effected by recent rains.
Another point is that while rains
there have been in many instances
heavy, the temperature has been so
very high as to neutralize all possible
good. The highest temperature to-day
was 80 at Selma, Sc Gainesville, Tex, 50
