See "Human Hearts,"

Facts are stranger than fiction All
plays depend more or less on facts for
their plots. OF course, at times authors
are prone to carry the limits Of dra-
matte license almost to the point
where the realities of their plots are
submerged in the Pigments of their all
too vivid imaginations.
Human Hearts" is notable excep-
ton, and fully illustrates how much
interesting dramatic material may be
gathered by an author, based on the
actual Happenings of life. The story
of Human Hearts is almost true
in every detail. The incidents THAI
form the plot are all well known, and
still food for gossip in the community
where they happened. The author CT
the play met the original Tom Logan
several years ago, and heard the sto-
ry from his own lips. Becoming deep
ly interested. he journeyed to Logan 5
home, where he met most of the OF

of the play. When he asked per Sc

FLATTERING CONDITION.
Lieutenant Governor Allen Speaks of
Churcflii's Future,

VIM ottAi c.
Lieutenant Governor Allen, who has
been spending a few days at the
home ranch in St Clair in Churchill
county, has returned 10 this city. lem
has conducted a farm in this section
were discovered and is still in the
business. In reply to question as
to how the section looks and its flu
ture Lem stated as follows;
Churchill today promises more
than at any time since it was recogni-
zed as a county or q place worth
looking to. Her agricultural possIb !
tiles are just becoming known AMI
the new canal that is going to leal
into the valley Will give the people OF
this State something to wonder at.
in fact the people of the county are
wondering at the wonderful chango9
which are taking place every day.
The big canal is working a small army
Of laborers and every day shows what
is being done. Settlers are cIamoring
for a chance to get in and as soon
as the government throws the land
open it will be settled by very desi,-
able set Of people.
"Of course down my way the land
is pretty well taken up and ali is be
ing cultivated that the water allow
ance will cover, but even there, the
people are taxing on a new view Of
the conditions and the farms will re-
ceive more attention than at any time
since settlement. The farmers grew
tired Of seeing their farms dry I'D for
want Of water, while the upriyerd
farmers flourish but this is to be
remedied, and when the new canal
is in the Churchill farmer will be
the most independent in the State.
Even the mines are coming to the
front. Churchill is going to make bui
lion for the minis as well as raise
flour for the miners. The mines ar
looking better today than in year:
and a general revival is taking place
OF course Olinghouse is the best pro
perty that is in cur section, and whit
the mines are some distance from thu
county seat, yet considerable of thu
stock and claims are owned by GU
people.
Churchill county is alright and sh
is not asking for anything from tn
time on. The new town of Fallon tn
county seat is booming right along
and not on any false grounds bu
from healthy trade that is COMING
with the growing and prosperou
town"
The Lieutenant Governor has inte-
ests all along the route from Oline
house to the sink, and his opinion !
worth considering and all agree wit
him that Churchill is to be one o
the big counties of the State.

zenith OF his powers as an orator, and
all his old colleagues have pleasant
memories of his eloquence ON the floor
OF the house. Republicans as well as
democrats like to hear him talk for the
music in his voice, his choice dlction
and earnest manner. If democrat
should come from Nebraska, there are
many who hope it will be Bryan, as his
voice in the senate ought to contribute
to the interest, If not "gaiety," of that
body.
Another noted democrat is making an
equally strong fightto break in the SEN
ate from Indiana, This is Smiling
Tom" Taggart. the genial democratic
national chairman. Mr.. Taggart would
be u comparatively young man for sem
atorial honors, but not nearly so young
in years as the eloquent and forceful
Beveridge, one of the present senators
from that state, whose term expires next
March, and whom Taggart would like
to succeed. A great many would con-
slider It a distinct loss to have the impet-
uous and fiery orator Beveridge left out
of the senate, as he is now full-hedged
leader, and one of the readiest extern
poraneous debaters in that body. Mr.
Taggart and his friends, however, are
doing their level best to secure legis-
lature that will elect democrat In
place of Beveridge. and they hope that
democrat viii be the national chairman
himself.
Mr.. John T. McGraw, of West Vir-
sinia, is making strenuous efforts to
elect democratic legislature in that
state, which, in turn, will elect him to
succeed the present republican senator.

for reelection. On the 4th of March lie
will have completed four terms of six
years each in the senate, besides three
terms in the house of representatives.
He has been in feeble health for several
years, and has not appeared in his seat
in the present congress.
The other senator is William Morris
Stewart, of Nevada, who is in his seven
ty-eighth year. His first appearance in
the senate antedates that OF any other
member as he took his seat February /,
1865, 40 years ago next February. His
service has not been continuous how
ever as he was out from 1875 to 1887.
There is no probability Of his reelection,
and he has accepted that as inevitable,
and will retire from public life next
March. He is man of unusual vigor,
for his advanced age, and is as straight
to-day as he was when he went to Cali
fornia in 1850, among the first of the
argonauts. He is called Santa Claus"
by the pages of the senate on account of
his long white beard, which gives him
a benevolent and venerable appearance.
Younger. men will succeed all three
OF these senator's, and add to the colts, y
as the newer and younger element in the
senate is termed. The changes, how
ever, will not affect the management of
affairs in the senate, as that will still re-
main in the hands of the older men, who
for years have controlled legislation in
that body. Senator'S Aldrich, of Rhode
Island; Allison, of Iowa; Platt, of Con.
