BRYAN WANTS TO BE SENATOR

Jennings Bryan wants the place in the
United States senate which Charles
H. Dietrich is to leave. The informal

Ocratic party in the state. Mr.. Bryan
has not expressed the wish publicly. An
deavOr to learn the details and scope of
his plan met with the statement that
he must decline to discuss the sub

Possibly Mr.. Bryan wishes it to seem

Marie Wainwright Coming.

Miss Marie Wainwright, known to all
the world as one of the leading expo
nents Of Shakespeare's masterpieces,
is soon to treat the play-lOvers of this
city to her world-famous impersona-
ton Of Viola in "Twelfth Night" which
as every one acquainted with Shakes
pearian productions knows. is as much
"A comedy of errors as the other
play to which the Bard of Avon gave
that name. Miss Wainwright's role is
that Of the disguised page who turns
the heads of the titled lovers Of Illyria
without regard to sex and paves the
way for very advantageous alliance
for the long missing brother who was
her double. while herself laying siege
to the heart of the duke she admires.
Miss Wainwright carries Viola through
the tumble of complications into which
her male disguise throws her with u
delicacy of touch that makes her per-
fornance one of the most charming on
the stage. At the Waila Waila opera
house, Jan. %.

1t is intimated in some quarters that
Mr.. POindexter does not figure so much
on being nominated for governor as
he does in securing some other place,

went high enough to avoid the irregu-
larties they would then be too small
He recently located a tree near Nc

the requirements. Contract will soon

first section will be twelve feet long

the office of the commissioner in charge
of the exhibit, and will be on the left
hand side of the main passage way
