TEMPERANCE ALPHABET.
"A Warning Dlrecled at Those Wha
Would Daily With Oriak.

The Christian Work publishes
the following temperance alphabet,
prepared by William g. Haesse-
bsrth:
Alcohol-Ths devil 10 solution.
BeeE-A Supplying beverage.
Crime-The outcome Of intemper.
|ance.
Drunkenness-The fruitful source
|of crime, poverty and wretchedness.
Eternal Death-The drunkard's 9
award.
Fruits Of Intemperance Poverty,
crime, wretchedness, suffering and
death.
Gin-Death on pale horse.
Hard Up-Chronic condition oi
the drunkard when he is not low
down.
Intemperance-The sum OF all
villainies, as it is the parent OF all
crime.
Jail-A wayside station on the
road of destruction.
Keener than q serpent's sting IL
that of alcohol.
Liquor drinking if persisted in,
surely leads to drunkenness and
death both Of body and soul.
Marvellous indeed, that men
should voluntarily put into theil
mouths an enemy to steal away
their brains! !.
Need follows hard On tho heel'
| of strong drink and not unfrequent
lily ends in q moose.
Old drunkards are as scarce u
lflies in January.
Piracy is respectable as compared
With liquor selling.

Rum and ruin, rags and rednes

|Teetotalism is the only safe guar
against intemperance.
!, Unappalled by the misery he ha
wrought, and undeterred by an
Thought Of the future, the drunkar'
goes down to eternal death.

HEARST ATTACKS THE
CUBAN TREATY.
Says the Measure Represents Inten-
ton Of the American Trust, Work
ing Through the Republican
Administration, To Make
Deals with Foreigners.

New York November e.-(specal.)-
Reprs~e'.i tive William Randolph Hearst
viii. in tomorrow American, in a signed
editorial give his views on the pending
cuban reciprocity measur in vigorous
language which will interest all those
who have followed the course Of this
measure in congress. Mr. Hearst says in
part:
This bill does not represent reciprocity
between other countries and the people Of
this country It represents the intention
Of the American trusts, working through
the republican administration, to make
deals with foreign countries for the man
clal hen7,.It OF the American trusts. There
is no reason why any democrat should
put his Endorsement on this republican
trust measure The genuine democracy
Of America believes in reduction Of the
tariff. The democratic party and demo-
cratic politicians instructed BY the MIL
lions who control and who are the demo
cratic party demand tariff reductions. All
democrats are eager for just. actual and
immediats reduction OF the tariff. But
the tariff it stands. the great feature
of American Industrial ard financial life
must be treated inteligently like every
other great national question.
The people demand a reduction Of the
tariff They demand now, Mt this session,
a reduction Of the tariffs that protect the
criminal trusts adding TO their power,
strengthening their lawlessness. The
policy of the people Of the United states
in regard 10 the tariff is clear. and it is
this:
NO protection for oppressive trusts.
Tariff reduction on trust products
which the trusts sell cheaper abroad than
at home
"No further protection for the manu-
factared steel which the American must
buy In Pttsburg FOR S2e a ton, and
which is sold to the Canadians or to
other foreigners for s22 TON. Tariff,
beyond Question, has had it's pro ective'
effect The people demand tariff se1olm,
bat they want to interfere with that pro
tection which protects natural extorton;
which has bailt up monopolistlc bTigand-
age: which has put trust kings above the
laws; put every household. every dinner
ta5,c. at the mercy Of the trust agent
and his price list: The American people
want to reform the tariff in their own
behalf They DO not want to begin ny

EXCELLENT
Was Lincoln }. Carriers play 1.-The
Heart of Chicago"
One Of The Best Scenic Productions
Ever Shown Here.

The scenic production OF Lincoln ].
Carriers THE Heart OF Chicago" APP
peared at the Traders Grand Opera
house last evening. From the rise Of
the curtain to its drop the closest at
tention OF the large audience was held
and the play scored decided hit, it
being the best scenic production plac-
ed on the stage here this season.
The play opens ia the heart of
Chicago, At the time OF the great
Chicago FIRE. There is a scene OF State
and Madison streets the night after
the great fire. The following scenes,
those OF the roof or the Masonic Tenn
Pile looking south, and Of Washington
street south OF City Hall, are truly
realistic. The next scene shows the
drawbridge at Whiting on the Central
Railroad. AT the climax OF the act.
when the william has the employe to
throw open the draw-bridge and swing
the safety signal light, away, down
the track, in the central background,
is seen the light of the approaching
special midnight train. The train ap-
proaches in the far distance, and the
little light grows larger, and still
larger. finally you hear the whistle
Of the engine, and then the shrek Of
the escaping steam, and just after the
heroine throws the danger light on the
signal post, the locomotive OF the train
pushes itself, to the front of the stage
and just In front OF the open draw
bridge it comes to standstill with
it's bell ringing and smoke pouring
from its stack. The scene captured
the house and the curtain raised four
times to response encores.
AS a scenic play, the production
beats them all, and it was well appre-
ciated by the audience last night.
