 The rain which came up about 1O.3O o'clock last night interrupted the play somewhat. The downpour was so heavy that 1t was impossible to hear the actors at times. There was also some trouble hearing them in the first part of the piece as they were not used to so large a house and did not talk loud enough.

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, August 49,
\ stranger who had been stopping at
the Morgan house since Saturday, ap-
parently suffering from complete loss
of memory as to his own identity, was
identified by his brother law, John
G.. Wilkinson Of Newburgh, N. Y,
as DR.. Harry +. Gate, proprietor of
a sanitarium in Lakewood, N. j., who
disappeared on April 81, last. On
that day he went to New York with
several thousand dollars, and from
that time all trace OF him was lost
Since then he has been wandering and
his face and hands are bropzed by the
weather. His clothes are good and he
says he has beeu buying new clothing
whenever necessary. He says the
only places he can remebmer being in
were st. Louis and Kansas City, al.
though he has travelled, he says,
through great many places. He re-
members everything that has happened
since Saturday, but his memory IL
practically blank on all before that
date. He does not even remember
that he had been doctor.

Lincoln. Neb, Aug. l3-Thirteen
thousand reasons are given by Mrs
Lena NJ. Lille, the dashing speculstor
Of David City, Neb., why she should

INFANT INDUSTRIES HAVE BE-

There can be no doubt but that the
Republican party has absolutely sur
rendered to the trusts. Let us trace
for a moment the progress it has
made along this line. 1t levied a tar
IF upon the people Of the country,
for the alleged purpose Of protecting
infant industries" but 1t solemnly
declared that, as loon as these indus.
tries were able to Withstand compe-
tition from abroad, the tariff would
be repealed. These Infant pets of
the Republican party have become
the great trusts Of the country. They
are not only able to Withstand com.
petition from abroad, but they are
selling abroad at prices that range
from ten to forty per cent less than
they sell at home to the American
trade. The result then is, dear
prices at home - cheap prices
abroad" Extortion from the people
who fostered, protected and sustain
ed them in the days of infancy, and
benefits conferred upon foreign
nations. The whole effect of the
tariff as It is at present, is to en-.
able these corporations to stand be.
hind it's prohibitive walls and de.
spoil the people at home, while 9th.
err nations receive the benefit. And
yet, the President blandly announces
that the tariff has nothing to do
with the trusts"

Hcan party2 The trusts absolutely
