Roman tragedy. Mrs. Rabbit miss
Elnia Spaulding) and Nisbe, her young
est daughter miss Olga Todd) have
gone to neighboring watering place.

(Miss Mabel Baker,, who tells Mr.. Marcus
Brutus Snap, a transformer (Mr. f. A.
Snow, that the play has never been pro-
duced. Mr.. Snap persuades the Professor
that the drama can be successfully played
by his company. Just as the rehearsals
are under way Mrs. Babbitt returns un-
expectedly, and throughout the play
numerous complications arise in trying
TO keep her from knowing that the play
lis being staged. The presence of Jack
Mulberry lMr. A. NJ. Torpen) in pursuit
of fortune, and of Lord Mulberry (Mr
J. II. Brislawn) in pursuit of Jack, add
greatly i'll complicating matters. Through
the agency of DR.. Damask, the Professors

Nisbe, way is finally evolved to escape
the vigilance of Mrs. Babbitt and Mrs.
Damask miss Elma McCann), which

How the President and His
Friends Received the News
of the Election
DELueE OF CONGRATULATIONS
Messages From All Over tho Country
Poured in Upon tho President When
the Sweeping Nature Of tho Victory
Became Apparent-Fairbanks Sends
Telegram.

Washington, Nov. 9.-Surrounded by
his family and several personal friends,
President Roosevelt last night recelv-
ed the news OF his overwhelming VIC
tory, achieved at the polls.
The first information of a definite
character was received by the presi-
dent while he was at dinner. The re-
turns laid before him then were in the
nature of assurance that he had car
ried New York, his home state, by q
plurality so large as to be really as
papers in New York City were receiv
ed. While the president was graft
fed, 1t may be said that the result was
not entirely unexpected. although he,
himself. had not anticipated so ire
mendous victory.
These and rapidly succeeding bulle-
tins, each conveying to him more
cheerful news, were read and discuss
ed by the president with calmness. He
was in the best of spirits, but at M
time did he manifest the slightest
nervousness or anxiety. Assured, as
he said, that the campaign had been
conducted on a plane of principle and
patriotism, as lofty as he himself would
have 1t, and that everything had been
done which legitimately could be done
to insure the success of the principles
which had been promulgated by the
republican party and by him, he had
awaited with perfect confidence the
verdict of the people.
Shortly after 9 o'clock President
Roosevelt received personal telegram
from his democratic opponent congrat-
ulating him on his election.
In addition to the telegram received
from Parker, the white house tele
graph force was deluged with congrat-
ulatory messages for the president
from friends in every section of the
country.
AT 1915 o'clock the president left
his guests at the white house and went
10 his private office in the executive
building. There he greeted cordially
large number of the corps of Wash
ing correspondents, who had been
awaiting him. He chatted freely with
them about the result of the election.
making no attempt to conceal his great
qualification at the victory that had
been won. After talking informally
with his friends for time, the presi-
lent dictated a formal statement ex-
pressing his views.

A LITTLE SENTIMENT

Sometime in passing along the
street meet man who in the left
lapel of his coat wears little bronze
button. The coat is often old and
rusty; the face scanned and furrowed
by the toll and suffering of adverse
years; perhaps above it hangs an
empty sleeve. or below it a wooden
peg. But when / meet a nan who
wears that button, I'd off my hat and
stand uncovered in his presence-yea,
to me the very dust his weary feet has
trodden is holy ground, for l know
that man in the dark hour of nation s
peril barred his breast to the hell of
battle to keep the flag of our country
in tie Union sky. Maybe at Donei-
son he reached the inner trench, at
Shiloh held the broken line, at Chat
tanooga clambered the fame-swept
hill, or stormed the clouds on Look
out Mountain Exchange.

From far Alaska comes Macedon-

ravages of the big bears in that penin-
sula, which weigh from 1900 pounds
to 1880 pounds each.
'sWe shipped 300 head of cattle and
6,100 breeding ewes to Kodiac,
Alaska, last spring." writes firm Of
packers from Seattle. "The bears
have killed 503 up to date. During
the mix-up about IL bears were slain.
About 30 days ago two bears got into
the sheep and after killing 81 sheep
and tearing the coat off one man the
bears were killed. The United States
marshal on hearing of this had all our
men arrested for killing the bears.
Five of our men were compelled to
stand trial at considerable expense to

Officer Baker swooped down riding his

threw the wire moose around his

it on the sidewalk and rode away

MANLY AND COURAGEOUS
POLITICAL TRICKERY
ByJ.E K. Perry.

The admirers of Mr.. Parker, call
his telegram to his friend and through
him to the st. Louis convention.
"Manly and courageous"
Manly, acting like man, valiant.
brave, heroic. But there are other
elements entering into the definitions
which must be considered before we
can call an act manly. The act must
be uDselfish. It is fair to suppose
that Mr.. Parker coveted the nomi-
nation for which he was candidate,
not only for the honor, but profit
which might come to him, hence
selfish.
The act must be honorable. Twice
Mr.. Parker supported Mr.. Bryan on
wide open silver platform, without
reservation SO far as is known. He
has ever been silent as to his position
on the SO called standard Ito prove
this read Mr.. Hills statement at ST
Louis that he did not know Mr.
Parker'S view as to the matter) unit,
his kilograms were given to the world.
Again, the act must involve personal
loss or risk. Mr.. Parker must haye
been we'll aware of the fight on the
currency question and knew well that
if he had sept that message two days
in advance OF it's date that he would
not have received the nominations.
Mr.. Parker had no idea Of loss, but
an expectant gain. No doubt it was
all arranged, cut and dried that if a
gold plank could not be inserted into
the platform, he should be nominated
if possible on straddle or noncom-
miJment and then this telegram
should go forward knowing very we'll
at that stage of the proceedings no
change in the nominee or platform
could be made.
Mr.. Parker is trained as juriSt,
and not as politician. Mr.. Hill as
an adriot political wire puller was
more likely to be at the bottom .of it
and it may be more properly termed
fine specimen of political trickery"
and not manly act at all.
But as Lincoln said, "You could
fool rart Of the people all of the
time, and could fool all of the people
part of the time, but could not fool
of the people all of the time" Mr..
Bryan says; "It was plain and deli
berate attempt to deceive thelpeOple.
It will not matter. The policy and
practice of the Republican party is
good enough for the masses
Oregon has set the ball rolling with
larger vote than ever before and it
will keep rolling on withan increased
momentum until Roosevelt and that
for which he stands, will sweep al
before him.
