Are You a Mason ?

This funniest of all farce come
dies, was taken from the German
by Leo Dutrichstein, one of the
ablest playrights and actors of the
present time. 1t is a bright, witty
farce, interesting and funny thro'-
out, and is of such a nature that it
is understood and appreciated by
all classes. All the parts are ex-
tremely good, and the play is guar
anteed to be the funniest thing
ever presented in the city. It is
given for the benefit of the local
hospital. This institution needs
money, and as it furnishes accom-
modations at just one-third less
than like institutions at Fargo,
Grand Forks or st. Paul, it we'll

The Cause Of Vice.

Vice Is due chiefly to inattention;
not ignorance, but thoughtfulness. "T
see the better and approve; yet pur-
sue the worse" In this case knowl-
edge is not absent. but defective. It
is one the margin instead of in the
focus Of consciousness. In the Ian
guage of physiological psychology a
present appetite presents its claims on
great billows Of nerve commotion
which come rolling in with all the
tang and pungency which is the char
acteristic mark of immediate peripher-
al excitation. The future consequences
of the qualification OF that appetite, on
the contrary, are represented by the
tiny, faint, feeble waves which flow
over from some other brain center
excited long ago, when the connection
of this particular cause with its nat
ural effect was first experienced. In
such an unequal contest between pow
erful vibrations shot swift and straight
along the tingling nerves from the
seat Of immediate peripheral commo-
tion, and the meager, measured flow
OF fadded impressions whose initial
velocity and force was long since
spent, what wonder that the remote
effect seems dim, vague, and unreal.
and that the immediate qualification
OF the insistent, clamorous appetite or
passion wins the day!-Atlantic.

INJUNCTION GRANTED.
Canton 4 New PhIiad lei phIa
Electric Line Tied Up by
Commits sioners.

On petition of the county commits
sioners OF Tuscarawas county, the com
mon pleas court has enjoined the Can
ton-New Philadelphia Electric Rail-
way company. The complaint is that
the company has been setting trolley
poles on the side of the track next
to the wagon track along the high.
way, which practically locates them
right in the middle/of the road. The
commissioners claim that they are dan
gerous to the, travelling public and un-
slightly.
The court is asked to order all poles
80 placed to be removed and the CON-
pany ehjoined from placing any more
on that side of the track.
The reason given by the company
officials for placing the poles next to
the driveway is that there is a line OF
telephone poles on the other side an6
that there is no room for the trolley
poles. This the commissioners deny.

A Very Foolish Sunset.

The sun set last evening was one Of
surprising grandeur. 1t was one Of
those which nature sometimes paints
to show the insignifcance of the work
of man The mackerel sky which hung
in the west was tinted with colors Of
matchless beauty. Like segments
bordered with gold and inlaid with
crimson the little cloudlets hung
above the horizon like an inverted pill
lar of fire in sublime. yet gorgeous,
splendor. Gradually as the shades OF
evening deepened and the black folds
of night were unfolded for their drap-
cry, the deep coloring gave way to the
mcllowing tints of the fading light and
the gold gave place for the leaden hue,
and the crimson for the green as the
moons pale light kissed the dying rays
of eventide and changed the clouds to
silvery whiteness on the night.--Alli-
ance Review.

Our old friend Carrie Nation has
bobbed up again, this time at the
New York horse show where she took
occasion yesterday to read curtain
lecture TO the occupants of the Van
derbilt box. Mrs. Nation was greatly
shocked by the gowns worn by some
Of the fashionable patrons of the show.
She told them so in a TRADE delivered
from the tanbark arena and later was
lgnominiously elected by the police
There is one good thing about Carrie,
she is not easily discouraged. If she
had been she would have quit the
smashing business long ago. Persist
ence is one of her cardinal virtues.
But in her unique crusade she stands
alone. She is. after all, only a weak
woman arrayed against the formid-
able sins of the world. The cause is a
hopeless one but she struggles vihiant-
ly on. If it were possible for all the
women of the world to become Carrie
Nations for few feeting hours, the
two hemispheres would be strewn with
the debris of wrecked saloons. dis
mantled breweries and dessicated dis
tilleries.

Natural Conditions Important,

Hunters and other authorities on the
game Of this region are agreed that
the scarcity of quail proves that bad
weather for nestlings last spring did
more to keep down the stock OF the
most popular American game bird
than any amount of shooting could
have done, last fall. 1t seems clear
that natural conditions are more i'm
portant than the destruction wrought
by man in determining the quail pop
ulation of any region where the birds
have a decent degree of protection
from pot-hunters and those who
would kill out Of due season, II not
restrained by the law. A reasonable
use of game makes little difference, in
the long run, with it's abundance or
scarcity, provided other conditions
favor its natural increase.-Cleveland
Leader.

The ministers of Hamilton, O., have
an excellent opportunity to draw
moral and adorn a gospel tale. A young
woman of that city died suddenly Sat
urday evening after returning from
ball. On the Thursday preceding this
unfortunate affair, a faithful member
OF the Methodist church of the same
city, expired after attending the usual
weekly prayer meeting, but it is not
necessary for the ministers to recall
this incident in connection with their
observations upon the later event.

Starters in the mayorality race in

Starters in the mayorality race In
Canton next spring may be surprised
to discover an opponent in John q.
Rommel who is being carefully
groomed for the contest by a eoterie
of admiring friends. While Mr. Rom
mel's boom is still in nebulous and
gummy state it has all the earmarks
of an early maturity and a, not i'm
probable, successful finale. Mr.. Rom
mel's campaign managers count his
vast popularity as his most valuable
asset and anticipate, in case he enters
the lists, that he will be carried to
victory on wave of popular enthu-
siasm. Another good feature of Mr..
Rommel's embryonic candidancy is
the fact that he has no political past.
His escutcheon in this particular is
untarnished. He could enter upon his
Official duties with clean page before
him, and it must be conceded that
when Mr.. Rommel divests himself of
his coat and strides into the arena
he will certainly stir up the geological
exhibits and make Rome howl. His
campaign will be full of red-fire and
other pyrotechnics and. If it serves
nc other purpose, it will drive ennui
10 the winds and inject some health
full excitement into the balmy spring.
