A Newspaper Worth Reading.

The Pittsburg Times is a conserva-
tive, careful newspaper for particular
! people. It's statements of facts and
comments on them are concise and cor
| rect. Its departments are in charge of
experts, and its authority in all matters
pertaining to the events OF the world
at large and of the community it rep
rasents more particularly is recognized.
1t has no Sunday edition, and it's posi-
ton in that regard in Pittsburg, is as
unique as its thorough reliability in
every way Staunchly Republican in
political policy it yet gives all the news
of all parties. It's moral tone is high,
and churchmen ofevery creed find in
its columns moro news of their inter
ests and work than in all its contemp-
oraries combined. Sports are given
the prominence they deserve and no
more. The news concerning them is
bright, timely and adequate, for the
work is done by a master. Theaters
in The Times as in no other paper have
the truth told about them and the
plays they offer. No business consider
ations ever interfere with the publica-
tion of criticisms that really criticise,
and in this department. too, the work
done by master. Society and the
affairs of women find careful and COM
plete exposition on the page devoted
to them. Industrial matters are ac-
corded the prominence they merit in
Pittsburg paper, while the stock
market is given the attention that has
brought The Times into the front rank
of financial authorities. Above all The
Times is model not only of brevity of
statement but of dignified simplicity in
its typographical appearance. 1t of
fends neither the eye nor the sensibili-
ties. TIL Sc things that are of import
ance are treated accordingly. Those
that are unimportant are handled in
keeping with their value. Each issue
of The Times is a days history of
events the wide world round. It's price
is one cent daily or So year. 4S.3t.

j. T Rothrock, Secretary Of the
Pennsylvania Forestry Association,
says: We are going to prosecute con-
stables who fail to turn out to fight
forest fires. We have told constabes
that whenever they sue the county

fighting the fires, and the lower courts
give judgment against them, we will

ga Royal Slave" is the greatest and
best high-class sensational play that
has been seen in this country in the last
three decades. 1t is the most original
play on the boards to-day. Original in
location, in ''motif," in plot and story,
in characters, in costumes; in scenic eff
fects, in mechanical surprises, in
dramatic situations, in pictures and
climaxes; it is the only strongly sensa
tional play that does not descend to
blood and thunder" methods, but has
all the literary merit and charm of the
best romatic plays; coupled with the
thrilling dramatic power of a great
melodrama, and the brilliancy and
sparkle of the brightest comedies;
therefore it pleases the most critical and
intelligent at the same time that it
thrills gallery to the highest point of
enthusiasm. 1t is never tiresome and
never allows the interest to once flag,
but holds an audience entranced to the
last. 1t touches always the cords Of
human sympathy and human justice
1t has nothing old or hackneyed about
it and nothing that enables an auditor
to anticipate what is coming next. At
