Fl. II. Robertson, Of Enid, was
here yesterday.

After considerable negotiations
and only upon consenting to the
most liberal terms, Manager Burt
has succeeded in securing for a
limited engagement at the Wagner
opera house on Monday, Jan. II,
the magnificent romatic comedy
drama, Down by the Sea" which
has met with immense success in
all Of the large cities Of the East.
The play occupies the same posit-
ion among American comedy-dra-
mas as Way Down East" and
Shore Acre" No play Of its
kind before the public today has
been more deserving Of success,
Its chief charm is in the purity Of
its story and the natural manner in
which it Is told. AS dramatic
work It is unique in that the
strongest effects are produced BY
the quietest methods. Interpreted
BY the powerful company gathered
BY Manager Phil Hunt, and aided
by the magnificent scenic effects,
the attraction is one Of the most
satisfactory on tour. One Of the
big scenic features is an electrical
storm at sea and a ship-wreck.
Included in the company, which is
comprised Of fourteen prominent
actors, is baby actress whose
ability and intelligence IS remark
able.

cut in half at the abdomen, and her
clothes becoming entangled in the
wheels of the engine, the upper por-
ton was dragged some distance and
horribly mangled. The distressing
accident has cast a pail of gloom over

II Ascension was going to hog both

made Of political cartoon which APP
peared III the Times Democra at OF Mon
day, Aug. %, representing negro
voter perehed on the top Of a bamboo
tree and Teddy sitting beneath the
branches picking banjo and war;
bling paraphrase Of the chorus of
that erstwhile popular ragtime song,
Under the Bamboo Tree The Chief
suggested that the cartoonist could
have improved his picture by making
the serenade duet, in view Of the fact
that the democratic candidate for vice
president has made such a palpable
bid for the negro vote of West Vir-
