Abiding to the action of the Alabama

Abiding to the action Of the Alabama
Republicans, The Chicago Tribune says:
When the whites of Alabama and of
other Southern States shall enroll them
selves in two white mems parties it is
much more likely that the negroes Will
be gamers than losers by the change.
That is well and truthfully expressed,
but The Tribune spoils it all when it
says in another part of the same edi-
torial that the Republican Party in Ala
bama lis still the friend of the black
man-his only friend" II The Tribune
didn't appear to be in cold earnest we
should think it INTENDED that last as
sertion as a bit of delicate sarcasm.

Bolstering Up the Throne.

The Kaiser's belief that the cost OF

another way of expressing his conviction
that a few years in the army Is calculat-

Not the Way to Secure Revision.

Utica Observer.
Endorsing Republicanism is not indorsing
tariff revision or reciprocity with Cuba.
The Republican party is too close pris-
oner of the trusts successfully to ap-
proach either of these subjects. A DEM
ocratic ma jority In the next House OF
Representatives is the surest guaranty of
both reciprocity with Cuba and proper
revision Of the tariff.

1t is source of amazement to us
that Johnston continues to affirm he
found the States Treasury empty and left
1t full, in the face of the figures that
are given out automatically from the Au-
ditor office. How he can make such
claims with these figures facing him is a
mystery.-Dem opolis Express.
II The Montgomery Journal knew the
standing of The Advertiser with nine
tenths of the people we think 1t would
stop its villification on that paper. The
Advertiser makes mistakes but nearly ev-
cry one will admit that it Is the best
newspaper in the State. There is a de,
cided preference sho wn for "Grandma'

Ex-Governor Johnston struck the black

Secretary Shaw Will Discontinue
 For Time-Price Too High.
 WASHINGTON, March 15.-The sec retary of the treasury has announced that he will discontinue for the present the purchase of United States bonds of the 3 per cent loan of 1904, the 4 per cent funded loan of 1907, the per cent loan of 190S-1S and the 4 per cent loan of 1925, such discontinuance to take effect at the close of business today.
 The secretary believes that the price of bonds is unreasonably high and that the effect of the government being per manently ill the market stimulates and helps to maintain this price to the prej- udice of national bank circulation. Banks are said to be retiring circula- ton as rapidly as possible. presumably for the purpose of selling the bonds now on deposit at present prices or for the purpose of using them with the treasury as security for government deposits. In making government de posits the secretary is disposed to dis criminate ill favor of such banks as maintain their circulation and by these two methods hopes to overcome the tendency to retire national bank circu- iation.

OPEN SWITCH CAUSES WRECK.
Four Seriously Injured on Nickel
 Plate at Knox, Ind.


 KNOX, Ind, March 15. = A west bound Nickel Plate passenger train ran Into an open switch here last night, re sulting in disastrous wreck. The fol- lowing persons were severely injured: A. A. Schwind, engineer, Fort Wayne; Jim Dalton. fireman, Fort Wayne; O. l.. Alexander, baggage master, Cleve- and; William Browe, mail clerk, Cleve- iand.
 The train was running at high speed when it collided with a number of freight cars that were standing on a side track. The baggage coach was torn to pieces, and the engine and six freight cars were piled ill heap and were destroyed by fire. The ire ragged for several hours, blockading all traffic. No one was killed, although many passengers were slightly injured. Schwind received dangerous wounds in the head, and his wrists were SC verely cut. He almost bled to death. Dalton's shoulder and wrist were se- gerely injured. Alexander and Browe, it is feared, were internally injured. Uhe railroad company's loss IS heavy.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.

Tonight offers the last opportunity to see the noted Russell brothers and the other vaudeville stars associated with them at the Jacques, and the au- dience will undoubtedly be another of the large ones that have been in evi- dence all the week. To succeed this show, opening Monday afternoon, Man ager Polls has secured as the leading feature of a great bill the original sen sational cycle whirl, which has been creating such q furore in New York and other large cities. At Keith's, Proctor's and other leading vaudeville houses it has startled the audiences as the biggest novelty introduced to American vaudeville in q decade and Manager Poli offers it as novelty that vaudeville managers have been com peting strenuously to secure during the past three months Tn presenting the original whirl, with four riders. Man ager Poli offers the most novel, sen 1 sational and attractive cycle act ever put on the stage in Connecticut.

towns. Ii was called General Train ing day. The women folks of those days came out on this occasion in their quaint costumes, new bonnets, etc. and in fact in their best bib and
 tucker. Men resurrected their old fashioned uniforms and strutted about on the village green in most anus ing manner. A dance usually took place and the festivities were always enlivened by the village band. This and the drill enlivened the events of the day. .'The Village Postmaster" has some strikingly realistic scenes in the play. The first act opens in the country store; the scene changes to the village green on Training day and ends in wonderfully realistic shower of rain which drives the merrymakers to shelter. The second act is the min- ister's donation party, where the plain, but homelike, sitting room is seen with | it's ample and cheerful fireplace, the singing of the village choir to the l accompaniment of the melodeon, the offering of gifts to the minister seems true to life and will awaken memo ries of similar scenes i'll more recent years. The third act shows a realistic | farm scene with an old-fashioned threshing machine, threshing wheat and propelled b horse powery. The l last act is the village church at night,
 with the choir rendering beautiful mel odies and showing the village boys and girls decorating for the wedding soon to be. So eXquisitely true to life is this scene it has been called one of the
 most effective on the stage. Here are enacted the strongest and most dra-
 matte scenes of the whole play, and tears and laughter follow rapidly upon
 each other till the happy ending. The
 part of Miranda" the postmaster's
 daughter will be played by Miss An
 gela Russell, a young lady who has
 made rapid strides in the profession
 Few young actresses have yeSucceeded SC we'll, and Miss Russell has been gen

 life. A complete and most effective
 production of this now famous play
 will be given here. Car loads of seen

Last Stage Rehearsal Will Be lieu
 Tomorrow Evening in Polls. :
 The reserved seat sale of tickets be- gan yesterday morning, and the sale has been very gratifying. From pres ent appearances there will be crowd ed house on Monday evening when the cast of characters which is to present .'The Colleen Bawn" under the aus pices of the Catholic Women's associa- tion, appear on Polls stage. The CO.'S tunes were distributed last evening, and everything gave satisfaction. The final rehearsal will be held tomorrow night at Polls theater, and it will De a dress rehearsal. There is not q doubt left now as to the performance being given in excellent manner, for each of the cast has worked faithfully and dill- gently to meet the demands made upon him or her by the instructor. If the performance runs as smoothly as did last nights rehearsal those who are present will witness production that will be meritorious and interesting. It will be fitting way, too, for all who take an interest in St Patricks day to celebrate that day. Here is an irish drama filled with scenes that must be familiar to many of the people of this city. There you will find the Irish peasant, the Irish gentleman, the old tithe proctor, the pretty colleen, the rollicking gossoon, the beautiful wo- men, the red-coated soldiers. and ac- companying them scenes of old Ireland that will recall many happy and per haps many unhappy days.
 The reserved seat chart is still on exhibition at Polfs theater, and all who desire good seats can still find them. There is no doubt but that the prices are reasonable, for the general admission is D cents and the reserved seats are only 8 and 30 cents.

TROUBLE NOT ENDED
Many Boston Strikers Still
 Remain Idle.
GOVERNOR CRANE IS HOPEFUL.
A Large Number of the Men Find Their Places Filled = Confer ences Held With Rail-
 way Officials.

BOSTON, March 15.-Thealabor situ- ation ill Boston is extremely perplex- ing. To give weight to statements of labor men who spoke without author lty that harmony is not restored is to make the outlook far more critical than at any time since the Allied Freight Transportation council began its fight against the R. s. Brine Trans portation company. On the other hand, Governor Crane and the state board of arbitration believe that the problem is being solved quite rapidly, considering ask for time and patience from both laboring and business men to remove all obstacles for a resumption of freight traffic under customary condi- tionS.
 As an actual fact the strike was com pletely broken yesterday, although in dividual troubles cropped out in many quarters, some of which were adjusted without delay and others dragged along in uncertain state so that they came in for consideration by the vari- ous labor bodies last night. During these meetings, judging from what was argued by the men, Independent strikes of bodies seem impending, but the leaders in the strike just ended are sanguine that they still hold control of the entire organized labor body and would not again be obliged to order q | strike of the freight handlers or its more serious accompaniment, sympa- l tSetic strike of affiliated bodies.
 | The physical side of the strike break ing presented an army of workingmen rushing helter skelter to get their old l Jobs. There had been more than 10000 places vacated, but fully 10 per cent of the union men found their places filled. This was the reason for friction all day, affecting only the men them selves, for concerns were too busy raising the embargo on goods in their keeping to give heed to talk of unfair ness.
 The real battle yesterday was be tween the men who controlled the strike and the representatives of great interests who had been prevailed upon to consider certain propositions as a | for three days past it was Governor Crane at his office in the statehouse who stood between the parties at Issue.
 After numerous conferences the gov ernor said:
 ''The situation looks very much more encoura ging than last night. The rail roads have all agreed to take back as many men as possible without discrim nation. As far as the steamship lines are concerned, I understand that tho men have returned or practically all o1 them. The railroad companies will not consent to discharge men whom they have hired in place of the strikers, bu1 they are well disposed to the men anG are very anxious to take back as many ns possible. The question of the load Ing and unloading teams, while it came up incidentally, was not very much dis cussed. 1t will be taken up next week.

As for it's success i'll other directions the managers are not at all modest in claiming a similar degree of superiority. In the matter of decorations they are preparing some eIfects that will be unique and novel one in particular, modelled after a de- sign used at the reception in honor of Prince Henry in New York, being spe- cially attractive. This consists of m interior opening in smilax whereby the dancers in the hall will be screened from the gaze of those in the lobby and an effect created which will be at once unique and striking. The smiIax door will be placed just inside the main entrance under the gallery and will ex- tend across the entire width of the hall. Hundreds of yards of smilax will be used, and when joined with the other decorations. which will be mainly in cardinal and white, will make the most attractive scene ever disclosed to eyes in our City hall. Lovers of the terpsi- chorean and admirers of the beautiful generally should secure ffeir tickets early before the limited number are disposed of.
