great satisfaction. zs.. !. L. -.
- Mr.. Phillips has been connected with
most of the important bodies of the
city during his residence here. In
1898 he resigned his position in the
city attorneys Office to devote his
whole time to his private practice,
which is constantly increasing, Dur
ing Mr.. Phillips connection with the
city attorneys Office some of the most
important legislation affecting the city
was enacted, and the major part there
Of was drafted by him or under his
personal direction. In all matters at
fectings the city's welfare he is ire
quently consulted, as it is well known
that he has knowledge Of city laws
and affairs, which is not excelled by
any. u
In seeking an election to the asem.
bly,. he is striving to place himself in
position that he is peculiarly quail
fed to fn, and where he can be of
great benefit to the citizens and tax
payers generally. He hesitated long
time to come before the public for this
Office; but at the urgent solicitation OF
many of the prominent business men
of the city he consented to make q
contest for this office.

trouble and rejoices in her final vindi-
cation. No drama written in many
years calls for more elaborate stage
settings than Mr.. Campbell's pictur-
esque play. There is the library of
Judge Hardin, in the Bluegrass region
of Kentucky; a plantation rich in
tropical splendor, with distant view
of the mighty Mississippi swiftly run
ming it's course to the sea, with a row
of darkies' cabins near it's bank: In
this scene chorus of midnight sere-
naders sing the pretty melodies of the
past. A new feature of the production
will be the exterior of the famous
floating palace, Bell Creole, illuminat-
ed. In this this act a terrific rain
storm sweeps over the steamboat, dur
ing which she is destroyed by fire.
This is one of the greatest electrical
effects ever invented for stage use.
The rain is sen to fall for several min
utes, during which. time the wind
howls and the rolls of thunder and
vivid flashes of lightning make of it
sight not soon to be forgotten.
Again this is followed by a view Of the
dismal swamp on Red Devil Island

Judge Hine, Republican candidate
for municipal judge, is the Junior
member of the municipal court bench,
having served one term in a very &C
ceptable manner. His administration
of his Office has been characterized
by fairness toward those having bust
ness before him and there is no aues-
ton of his fitness for the position:
He has been the originator of many Of
the methods now in vogue in the court
and in the Office of the clerk of the
court and which have been the means
of making the department one of the
best conducted departments of the
city government. That he will be re-
elected for another term is almost a
fOregone conclusion.
