FRESH AND PURE.
Our New Minister Stands at The Head
of Clean Plays.

OF the many plays produced in the
past two years, none have attracted
or received such warm praise DIS Den
man Thompson and Geo, W. Ryer's
unique play of New England country
life, stOur New Minister" which will
be seen for the first time here at
Swisher Theatre, Monday, September
18th. 1t is now in its second year of
success. Its freshness, purity and
real and genuine worth commend it
is every admirer of all that is good and
wholesome in play building. The
succession of crowded houses that
have attended this production since
its initial performance, and the way
press and public have received it en-
phasizes Enthusiastically that it is some
thing more than a good and whole
some play, that it is transcript from
real life. Those who have enjoyed
1.-The Old Homestead, with its bound
less realistic touches, so true to life
on the New England farm, will find
similar pleasure in "Our New Minis
ter, z which produces life and charac-
ter in small New Hampshire town
with a like fidelity. No more distinc-
tive and no more natural types of
character can be imagined than are
here afforded. They are people we all
know, our own New England country
cousins. eloquent by reason Of their
very simplicity, as we'll as their in
tense humanity.

DANGEROUS CONDITION.
Republican Party has Need to
Get Badly Scared.
Chairman Dawson Says that Things
Don't Look Good to Him Interview
Published in the Organ of the AID.
ministration in the State.

PARKERsBURG, w. Va, Sept IL
Hon. w. M. 0. Dawson, chairman
Of the republican central committee,
has the following interview in the
Parkersbufg News this morning:
You may say for me" said Mr..
Dawson with considerable empha
sis, that things are in pretty bad
shape in our party. In fact, they
could not be much worse. You are
somewhat surprised, / see, to hear
me talk this way on the eye of our
campaign, but | want to tell you |
mean just what say. And ought
to speak even more emphaticaliy.
The sistuation is very discouraging,
and l believe the time has come
when it IS my duty to speak out and
let the republicans know what dan
ger the party is in.
In nearly every section OF the
state there are party differences and
chickering's which bode disaster next
November if these fighting factions
do not get together
And they must get together right
away without any delay too, if we
expect to carry the next Legislature
and elect the congressional delega-
ton.
II am in favor of having the state
committee take hold of these wrang
les and settle them if they cannot
be Strengthened out by the quarrel
ing factions. Something must be
done and at once. Such a state OF
affairs Is demoralizing and discour
aging all round. 1t creates a dan
gerous amount of apathy, and it's
the best way in the world to keep
men from the polls f"
"You will find, being an off year,
that many good republicans will
show their disapproval and disgust at
these small chickering's by indifference
and by remaining away from the polls.
| see actual danger ahead unless some
degree Of harmony is brought about
very speedily. 1t will require every
energy and resource of loyal republic
ans from now on to arouse the party
to that kind of united action which
will secure victory for US in Novem-
Der You may say for me that the
situation, so far as republican organ
ization in West Virginia is concerned
is very far from satisfactory. In fact,
it's bad, and it's time we are getting
together"

The lot sale at Sabraton on Wed
nesday September 10th was a red
letter occasion for Morgantown.
Four hundred and fifty nine lots
were sold and the aggregate amount
of sales was in round numbers $12,-
600. Every lot was sold.
But two reservations were made
by the company behind the scheme.
One of these was a church site and
the other was for public square
and park site All the rest Of the
property went to purchasers.
The selling time was four hours
and thirty minutes. The lots sold
at the rate of one and seven tenths
lots minute.
All day long carriages and trains
took crowds of buyers out to the place
where the sale was in progress on
the Addison farm. The scene was
busy one.
Col j. c. Morrow of Williamsburg,
Pa, was the auetioneer and he
lost no time. His carriage was run
rapidly from one lot to another and
no time was lost in disposing of the
various pieces of realty.
Without unnecessary prelimina
RES the lots were knocked down to
the buyers who bid briskly. Many
of them failed to run as high as the
crowd thought they should go and
at once the buyers were surrounded
by others anxious to get their bar
gains and in many instances hand
some profits were made at once by
those successful in bidding them IN.
The prices paid for the lots rang
ed from $50 to $3.50. Mrs Peabody
paid $4,000 for the farm house to
gether with two lots. Senator Ell
kins had buyer present and bought
heavily. Dr. |. G. White was con
spicuous in the throng and bought
number of lots.
Every real estate man in town
was in the party and large blocks
of lots were bought by them. Many
ladies had representatives present
and they purchased to a great ex-
tent
Out of town people took a lively
interest and good purchases were
made by them. This shows that
the belief in Morgantown's future is
not confined exclusively to the peo-
pie Of this city but is shared by OBJ
servant people in other neighboring
cities.
Plans for building homes on these
lots are being matured by the buy
ers and it is expected that very soon
a number of cosy homes viii be erect
ed on the addition to care for the
crowds of people who are to come
here.

NO DEFINITE ACTION
Taken by the Morgantown Di-
rectors Wednesday.

Statement read Demand Discharge
of two b0sses-It is said that Prop
osition to purchase plant is being con
sidered.
The Morgantown Directors held a
meeting on Wednesday afternoon but
took no definite action in regard to
the strike which is on at the factory.
They adjourned to meet again in a
dav or so.
A statement was submitted by the
men stating that they could not work
under William Cleis or j. Fl. Trip
and that in case these men were re-
tanned the union would not go back
into the factory
This statement was taken up but
no decision was reached by the direc-
tors and no vote was taken on the at
titude to be taken by the company.
Consideration of it was postponed for
action at the next meeting.
In the meantime the glass workers
are leaving town in large numbers un-
der the impression that the plant Is to
be run non-union in the future.
One of the directors of the company
stated this morning that no decision
of that character has been made and
in fact it has not even been discussed
in the meetings of the directors.
1t is understood that an offer to
purchase the plant as it stands has
been made to the company and this
offer is under adyisement. The direc-
tors who could be reached were asked
about this but they declined to be in
terviewed on the subject either to con-
firm or deny the report.

POWERFUL PLAY.
Little Talk and Much Good Acting

Go to Make up sour New Minis
ter"
Denman Thompson and Geo w.
Ryer's latest success, "Our New Min
ister, which is now in its second year
comes to Swishers Theatre for its local
presentation on Monday SEPT. Is.
This is the first New England play
that these authors have written since
that dramatic evergreen was first
brought forward seventeen years ago.
The scene of the play is laid 10 Hard
scrabble, N. H., poor farming COM
munity. While the new minister is
the central figure, and perhaps the
strongest character in the play, there
are number of others, such as, for
example, Lem Ransom, returned
convict; Curt Ho'ten, a cute rustic;
Darius Startle, country detective;
Obadiah Burton, with settled opin-
ions; Jack Frasier an escaped convict;
Nance Ransom, LENS daughter, and
Dorcas Tattleby, name and nature
alike. la writing this play Mr.
Thompson and Mr.. Ryer have iDduIg-
ed in as little talk as possible. hut
that little has been made intensely
interesting, powerful and effective,
their long experience in play building
having impressed them with the fact
that people go to theatre to witness
good acting rather than to hear phil
osophical discussions. The original
cast will be seen including such we'll
known players as John Terrlss, John
Barker, Joseph Conyers, Charles Sted-
man, Louis Furce, Grant Foreman.
John P. Drawn, Ethel Brooke Fergu
sonr Phila May and Mrs. Geo. W.
Barnum.
