The Woodland quartet and English
glee singers were brought to this
country to care for the incidental
music.
The Daily theater production has
been duplicated, and the color scheme
of costumes and effects is happy

Madison, Duluth, Winnipeg and
points between which were covered
by the western move, have all turn
ed out fashionable audiences, which
have filled the different theaters. In
fact, no engagement is arranged for
unless there is evidence of the sup

tour is conducted upon this basis,
thereby assuring an evening of de-
light to both the audience and the
performers.
A subscription list will be circulat-

response is sufficient to warrant the
managers in anticipating a full house,
the date will then be definitely an

PARKER
SPEAKS

ROSEMONT, N. Y. Oct. 22.-Judge
Parker this afternoon delivered an
address on the tariff to six delega-
tions of democratic clubs from New
York. The crowd was full of ginger
and continually cheered the candi-
date. In his argument Parker said
the benefits of the tariff accrue ex-
clusively to the capitalists, while the
law provides no means for giving the
workingman his share. The increase
in wages is not in proportion to the
increased cost of living.
