OPENING OF SAPP'S NEW THE
ATRE MONDAY NIGHT.

Manager Sapp of Sapp's Theatre,
Galena, is about to complete the re-
furnishing and decorating of that
pretty little play house, and will
open the same for the season on
Monday evening next, and for that
event has secured c. R. Sullivans
elaborate scenic production of
Frak Harevy's beautiful drama, in
five acts, entitled woman Against
Woman" which is play full of pa
thos, love and tenderness and goes
straight to the heart and touches it
to the deepest depth. No drama of
recent years presents a more beau
tiful character than that of Bessie
Barton, the self sacrificing wife and
sister. This character is played by
the charming emotional actress,
Lillian Hale Emery, who has been
with the 1.-TWO Little Migrants" for
the last two seasons. She is sur
rounded by a cast of high priced
and high classed players, thereby
assuring a complete, elaborate and
delightful performance. One entire
row of seats have been reserved for
Baxter people. Make yourselves
known at the box Office and you
will get the best.

quirement. Of the cash resources
IS per cent is in cash and sight ex-
change and IS per cent in U. S.

man place on the ticket Charlie
Noble was inveigled into the race
for representative, only to be "turn
down" by those whom he thought
were his friends. Hanback, was
beaten out of the nomination for
register of deeds by the greed of
Columbus aud Galena.
Columbus got four offices-pro-
bate judge, district judge, register
of deeds and county attorney, while
Galena took three-sheriff, repre-
sentative and high school trustee.
Baxter got nothing, as we stated
in the beginning. AS a result of
the throw down" the NEWS pre-
diets the election of Chas. Stephens
for representative by a large major
ity, although the district is usually
close. Baxter Republicans, we be-
lieve, are determined to teach the
other fellows lesson, and, really,
it is the only way to do.
