A. W. Hawks,
The Laughing Philosopher
At School Hall,
At School Hall,
April 18th, 1902.

The Popiarville Lyceum Club has
secured Prof A. w Hawks the cele-
brated laughing philosopher, for an
entertainment htre on April 29th.
This will be the last attraction of the
season by the Lvceum Club and Mr..
Hawks is by far the wittiest man ever
on our platform. We have Il list of
hattering testimonials from the best
people of the country and we have TO
hesltancv in saying that this will be
decidedly the best and most laughable
entertainment given under the aus
pieces of the Lvceum Club this season.
Following is Sam Jon.s descri ption of
Mr. Hawks:
Gainesville, Ca. March l, 1899.
To the Public have frequently
listened to, laughed at and enjoyed the
renditions of A. w. Hawks. His fun
and philosophy leave a good taste in
my mouth and | am always ready for
more of the sort he gives. Sometimes
he makes me cry, but whether laugh
or cry | enjoy every word he says,
and his ugly faces make me laugh my
self sore. He is naturally pretty, but
art ficially ugly. Best of all he is an
all rouu I'D good fellow.
Sincerely yours,
SAM p. JONES.
Those who wish to enjoy an evening
of real fun and pleasure and take one
more good old hearty slde-spitting
laugh before the club closes its doors
for the season, should attend this en-
tertainment next Tuesday night,
April Goth. Tickets for sale at the

Reed. that the Maryland Delegation in
the Fifty-Gfth Congress consisted of five
ID fools and one id rascal.
coupled with the remark that "Mudd
was not one of the fools"
In an interview with Congressman
Mudd published on Monday, he has this
to say of the uncomplimcntary remarks
attributed to Mr.. Reed. With perhaps
more of Il ravalcr-likc sort of feeling
about this than some would have deemed
prudent. | never denied this statement.
but contrntcd myself with saving that if
Mr.. Reed said that was glad he did not
put me down as one of the fools | said
nothing further about this. but let the
newspapers 20 ahead and quote it, Fin
ally it reached the newspapers up North.
and one day. during the following sum
mer. without ever having opened my lips
10 MIR. Reed. or written to him about it,
| received two letters from him. One
was personal to me. the other was cvid-
emily intended for publication. In these
letters he stated that he never said any
thing of the kind, never felt like saying
it. and in language that was decidedly
cordial to myself and complimentary to
the delegation as whole. he said that
he was pleased to say that there was no
delegation in Congress that had worked
more HcalouSly or more effectively for
its State than ours. have often felt
that | ought t" have published this let

of the delegation. but | did not do il.

THOMAS MAST DEAD.

"HOMAS MAST, the cartoonist,
whose name is inseperable from
L that of Boss" Tweed. to whose
downfall his historic pencil 50
largely contributed. died on Sunday. at
Guayaquil. Ecuador. where he held the
post of United States Consul General.
While Mast was not II great artist. yet
with his pencil he produced pictures that
spoke louder than words. and which car
ried terror to the hearts of political cor
ruptioniSts.
Cant you stop those pictures, cried
Tweed. Il don't care what they write
about me- but those Internal pictures
hurt
1t was often said of Tweed that the
only public censor he ever feared was
NaSt's pencil. 1t represented in the CON

against the defiant Boss" and more
possibly than any one cause contributed
to his final downfall.

The acting chairman of the committee.
Representative Jenkins. of Wisconsin,
has suddenly decided that II constitu-
tional amendment is necessary if any
curb is to be placed upon the trusts.
Representative l.ittlefield believes that
publicity will effect the purposes the
President had in view in his message
suggestions. and the other members of
the committee are divided between the
two opinions.
In the preliminary Skirmish between
the trusts aud the representatives, of
public sentiment the trusts have every
advantage. and only an extra session of
the next Congress can cauS" them the
slightest alarm.

APATHETIC SENATORS.

q EEMiNGLY well authenticated
rrpGrtS come from Washington,
w. that President Roosevelt is not
satisfied with the attitude of lead
ing Republican Senators ON the question
of antitrust legislation ana that he has
frankly expressed the opinion to Them
that every reason exists why some honest
attempt should be made t" pass bill at
this session.
Up To this time several prominent SEN
ate Republicans have evidently been
tcmpolizing with the President. They
have tried to convince him that action is
impossible in 50 short Il session as the
present one. and that discussion of the
question and Il failure 10 accomplish any
thing will but place the Republicans in
less advantageous position before the
country than they now occupy.
The President refuses To accept this
argument. aud so iHSstrnt is he that
something should be d"pc. that Senator
Senate leaders with request that he
prepare II bill. which may be made the
basis OF discussion. if nothing more.
In spite of anything the President may
do or say. the Senate is obstinatcly deter
mined to do nothing to affect the trusts
ut this session. If it yields to the pres
sure of the Administration and public
sentiment TO the extent of passing any
bill, it will be II makeShift. which will
not effect results.
Difficulty of this same character is de-
veloping in the House. and the pros
poets of an early agreement by the judi
ciary committee upon Il trust regulating
bill are not so promising as they were.
