Miss Morey won signal triumph
last night. and her work stamped her
as facile princeps among all the lead
ing women who have appeared here,
With tall slender and well turned
form, she walks the stage like one to
the manor born. her voice is rich,
full and sympathetic, her enunciation
perfect. Her gowns-well, they are
gorgeous and stunning creations in
the highest art of the dressmaker,
and the two robes, which she wore
in the last two acts of the play last
night, represent a sung fortune. Seen
through the cruel and unrelenting lense
of an opera glass. Miss Morey is still
young, and undoubtedly has a brilliant
future as an emotional actress
Monday night "a Royal Slave" in
which as the jealous. and unrelenting
Spanish Countess. Miss Morey has an
excellent opportunity Of displaying her
ability as an actress.

Wet Goods From the South.

Special Phone TO the Ardmoreite.
Marietta. |. T., Jan. 9.-Today for
the first time since Indian Policeman
Maytubby has been in town, the ex-
press people successfully and safely
unloaded their goods from Gainesville
on Sunday and Monday Maytubby
met the trains and destroyed all pack
ages found to contain liquor Yester-
day he was at the train. but the ex-
press people took their goods on
through and did not unload anything
that he was likely to sieze, To-day he
remained up town thinking they would
believe he had left town and would go
ahead and leave all the goods which
might be billed for this place. AS soon
as the train left town he hurried down
to the depot but the express agent
had hurried the goods in 10 the depot
and locked It up, that the officer might
not secure It.

again. With that one exception. not one of
the men mentioned was better qualified for
the position than are three-fourths of the
present Senate At that time Indiana was
represented by Mr.. Hannegan. and there
was one vacancy. VIII any one say that
Indiana, for the practical work of legisla-
ton, was better represented in the Senate
then than it has been for the past twenty
years? Turning TO the House of that Con-
gress, Maine was represented by seven
men, but the only one who has since won
a national reputation was Hannibal Ham
lin. In the Massachusetts delegation of ten
but two names are known TO most political
readers to-day-Robert c. Winthrop and
John Quincy Adams. Preston King and
Washington Hunt are almost the only men
in New York's delegation Of thirty-four
whose names can be recalled. David Will
mot, because his name was connected with
an important measure, is the only name in
the Pennsylvania delegation that recalls in
fiuence in legislation. Robert NJ. T. Hunter
is virginia's survivor of the years, and
Alexander II. Stephens and Robert Toombs
are Georgia's. General Schenck can be
recalled in Ohio, but really the only prom
inent man who was in that House was
Judge Thurman. Indiana appears to have
had more than an average delegation
Robert Dale Owen, Thomas j. Henley,
Thomas Smith, Caleb B. Smith, William w.
Wick, John w. Davis, Edward w. Nc
Gaughey John Petit, Charles w. Cath
cart and Andrew Kennedy Mr.. Davis was
speaker of the House to which this delega-
ton belonged. Doubtless some of the men
named would have won regulations in the
House, but the rule prevailed very gen.
orally that men could not serve more than
two terms. There is every reason TO believe
that the present delegation will compare
favorably with that elected in 1874. Most of
them have the advantage of four elections,
which is a great advantage to any man
who has any legislative capacity. The sys-
tenn OF several reflections in itself tends to
make the Congresses of recent years SUI
perior to their predecessors.
But the point which it is sought to COM
bat is the assumption that in character and
ability the congresses of fifty or sixty years
ago were superior to those of recent years.
Comparisons do not bear out the assump-
ton. We have no websters. but have a
larger proportion of men of ability, ex-
perience and general intelligence.

that the wearing of long hair by male In

contrary that "this paint melts when the

blindness. He does not give any statistics
on this point and there is reason TO suspect
that the conclusion reached was evolved
from his inner consciousness. During the

There is no character more detestable
than the iconoclast who devotes his lie 10
attempts to prove that this or that incident
about which sentiment clusters is notion.
The last OF this race is the man who mas
been deiving into historical and ancient
records to discover that there was never a
vessel called the Mayfower which brought
the first of the Pilgrims to Plymouth Mass
This person has found that the vessel called
the Mayflower did not come 10 the colony
until nine years after the first ARRIVAL OF
the Pilgrims IN 1870. This may or may not
be true, but what advantage can be oe-
rived by an exposure which will make SAD
work with speeches, poetry and sentiment!
Those who have been claiming that their
ancestors came TO America in the May
flower must ignore the iconoclast or change
the name of the ship to Speedwell- 1t Is a
fine sentiment-that of the coming OF the
Pilgrims in the Mayfiower-and II Should

doubtful historic value.
