At the Toter.

One of the best and most complete pro-
auctions 'Sapho" ever presented here
was that of the Holden Stock company
last night at the Toler. The version used
by this company is in many ways diff
ferent from other versions presented here
The play, is clean and pleasing. The
parts objected to by most theatre goers
are cut out Many companies present
ing "Sapho" have over-done the piece
in such a manner so that theatre-goers
who would really enjoy the play have
been afraid to see it on account of the
reputation. but last nights performance
would please a most critical audience
and il is safe to say there was not
single person in the large audience last
evening who was not more than pleased
with this production. Mr.. Preston is
excellent as Jean Gaussin He carries
the part TO perfection Miss Lillian
Crawford ''Sapho, made many new
friends. who will always remember her
exceptionally fine work in this difficult
part. In fact, every member in the COM
pany desirve special mention for the
manner in which they presented their
respective parts. Most all the scenery
pany and is most appropriate for the
piece. The costumes are far above the
average usually worn by stock COM
panies. In all. "Sapho. as presented
by this company, would be hard TO equal
Mr. Toler is trying to Nase every thea
tfe-goer by present. company of
players who are ecu any play they
will present and no should miss the
opportunity of seei' Sapho" tonight.

Much of the success as a play of Mr.
Winston Churchll's dramatization of his
own novel The Crisis is due TO the skill
with which the author has subordinated
the unimportant events in his novel and
brought into the proper dramatic focus
the love story of Virginia Carvel and
Stephen Brice This in a novel as all
readers of the remarkable book will re-
member was of subordinate interest to
the huge conflict between the north and
south which doomed before the reader;
politics. too, played its part. In the
play one secs all these factors. fully as
clearly as in the novel. but now they
are used merely 10 develop the love story
of the two principal characters This
is regarded as the very quintessence of
dramatic constructive skill and has won
for Mr. Churchill immediate place among
the dramatists of this country.
This interesting play will be seen at
the Crawford when Miss Isabel Irving
will make her first appearance in this
city as Virginia Carvel Although Miss
Irving has been starring in The Crisis
for the past two years. this is her first
trip west. Her success in the east has
been more than gratifying 10 her man
ager. Mr.. James K Hackett, and it is
confidently expected that the western
tour will even surpass the eastern in
financial and artistic results. Miss Irv-
ing's engagement in this city will be for
one night only. She will present the
play in exactly the same manner it has
been shown in all the large cities this
season. In fact Miss Irving will appear in
but few of the smaller cities while on
her way to the coast. She will next be
seen in Denver, having just closed a most
successful weeks engagement in Kan
sas City. and prior to that record break

FOREIGN LABOR IN THE COTTON
Mills


The introduction of foreign Tabor in
to the cotton mills in South Carolina
has begun, and the report is that the
mills are very well satisfied with it.
Germans and Poles have thus far been
engaged, but ii is said that operatives
of other nationalities will soon be seen
in the mills. This is not a move in
the direction Of cheaper labor. 1t is
an effort to meet a growing want. In
South Carolina, during the past year
or two, there has been a growing search
ty of labor, due to two causes, namely,
the increase in the number of mills
and the return Of native operatives to
the farms on account Of the high price
of cotton. For the last year or so mill
operatives have been able to do better
raising cotton than in spinning it,
But now that the price of cotton has
fallen below 8 cents a pound, will the
movement of the native operatives
from the cotton mills continue, or will
those who have already gone to the
farms return? That is a question that
cannot be answered off hand. The
chances are that some of those who
have gone back to the farms will re-
turn to the mills, but, even if a few
should return, there would still be a
demand for foreign operatives New
mills are being constructed all the
time and the demand for mill opera
tives is increasing. The foreign opera
tives now in the mills are said to
be we'll satisfied with their employ
ment and the wages they receive. They
also like the climate of their new loca-
ton. That being the case it is prob
able they will invite others of their
countrymen to join them, and in very
few years there will be a pretty steady
stream of immigration into the cotton
states
These immigrants will not all go to
the mills. If they are thrifty a per-
centage of them will seek the country.
and will endeavor to secure farms.
Thus, the few now in the mills may be
the forerunners of a great immigration
movement into the cotton states.
There is one thing concerning which
great care should be taken at the very
beginning of this movement. 1t is that
the mills should seek operatives only
among immigrants of those nationali-
ties which furnish people that deveIop
into good citizens

LAWSON'S TRUTHFULNESs CUES
TONED

Thowas w. Lawson of Boston who
is stirring up Wall street and inter-
esting the entire country with his ar
ticles on "Frenzied Finance" will have
to tell straighter stories than the one
he told in the January installment of
his revelations if he wants to avoid
contradiction of the statements he
makes. In that number he states
things that reflect upon the integ-
rity of the late United States Judge
Wales of Delaware. He creates the
impression that the judge was party
to a corrupt bargain. He tells of a re-
Ownership that was sought, he alleges.
Tor the purpose of Matchmaking a
great corporation with which he him.
self was connected, and which was
granted. Mr.. Lawson tells how the
case was finally settled by paying the
receiver large sum, and by paving
all other claims that were made in
the case. The settlement was in
Judge Wales court, and according to
Lawson, two dress suit cases. full of
bank notes, were in the court room for
that purpose.
The impression which Mr. Lawson
creates is that Judge Wales was ac-
quainted with the Matchmaking
scheme and practically assisted in
carrying it out Judge Gray of the
United States Circuit Court, in an in
terview, defends the memory of
Judge Wales. and what he says
leaves no doubt that if there was
wrong done in the case in question.
Judge Wales had no part in it. What
he did he was required to do by law.
There is no man in the country who
is held in higher esteem than Judge
Gray, and what he says the Ameri-
can people will believe.
There is of course truth in all that
Mr.. Lawson is writing about the do
ings of Wall street, but he is SO en-
amored of the dramatic way of put
ting things that it is probable he
thinks plain statement of the facts
wouldn't make the impression he de-
sires the people to have. In other
words, it looks as If he were sacrific-
ing truth to make a sensation.
That he is stirring up Wall street.
and especially certain financiers of
that street, in way that is profound
ly interesting, there is no doubt. He
has been threatened with pistols and
libel suits, but he announces he will
continue to tell his story without fear
or favor. And there is no doubt that
the great majority of his readers be-
lieve what he says. As to the
amount Of truth there is in his article
nobody. 1t is safe to say, is in po-
sition to know.

President Roosevelt's grandfather was
the first man to navigate a steamboat
on the Ohio and Mississippi rivers.
Capt. Roosevelt was a close personal
friend of Robert Fulton, inventor of
the steam craft. Soon after Fulton's
successful voyage on the Hudson the
captain conceived the idea of launch
ing such craft on what were then
Western waters. In the spring of 1911
the vessel was launched at Pittsburg
and the Presidents grandfather began
his voyage to the Gulf. He entered
the Mississippi during the throes of
the earthquake which devastated so
much of Southeastern Missouri. but
weathered the tumult successfully and
continued his trip to New Orleans.

but of great parliamentary importance.
