No National Russian Drama.

It Is curious that in g. country so
overdowing with loyalty, despite the
nihil1sts, very few Of the stage per-
formances have any national favor,
but so it is. An American resident Of

all his stay there did he see but one

he hear one stage song appeal t., Rus

A Very Welcome Visitor.

Dick Richards, who commenced an
apprenticeship in the PLAIN DEALER
Office over thirty years since, and who
after several years faithful service
went west to grow up with the coun-
try, on his way to visit Chicago, New
York and the st. Louis exposition,
stopped off for two days visit with
the PLAIN DEALER families, who
gave him cordial welcome. Leaving
us years ago he went directly to Sacra-
mento, Cal, where he held case on
both the Examiner and the Chronicle
for several years. Went to Portland,
worked on the Oregonian two years,
went to Tacoma, was on the Ledger
two years, went to Seattle, was FORE
man Of the PostrIntelligencer five
years, and for the past few years has
been compositor on the Review at
Spokane, Washington, which position
he will resume on his return. He was
married sixteen years ago to lady Of
Sacramento. He told us of the How
ard comfy people in the west; says
Will Wentwort has swell clothing and
furnishing store OF the Northwest at
Spokane, James Connolly holds good
position as pharmacist in the leading
drug store of Spokane. He reports a
stringency in the money markets of
the west, which is beginning to be felt

Freehauf Was Not Liable.

The only jury case Of the recent
term of court was the one Of Hugh
Mcintosh VS.. @. f. Freehauf, in which
the former sued for $4,000 damages
for the loss of an eye incurred while
expanding flues In boiler at the cleo
trio light plant during 1902.
The following jurors was empan-
eled:
Thomas Reynolds, Steve Broad
water, Henry Meyer, II. w. Jones,
Steve Kinnepp, G. II. Lange, Leo
Biwer, Henry Klelboer, John CRUDE.
A. Schimmlng, Ed, Ludwig, John L..
Baker, and after hearing the evidence
found for defendant, but not until
after they had been out for about ten
hours. The case moved along rather
slowly as one of that nature was
rather new to attorneys and judge,
the latter saying that he had not pre-
sided over parallel case during his
term OF Office, and he consequently
took considerable time in looking up
law points before making his rulings.

Dad Reads in the Times.

There are more ways than one to
skin cat, or in other words, to get
money out Of the liquor traffic. The
claim is that through the efforts Of
the Law Enforcement League there
was forced from the blind pigs Of
Howard counsy the sum of $1,000 dol
lars. Undoubtedly there are In the
county thirty persons able and will
ing to give bonds and each pay $1,000
for the privilege Of keeping an open
saloon according to the state law. II
it is money they are after, the willing
and lawful money paid would make
their forced money look like thirty
cents.

A Biz Wool Sale.

Last week a wool buyer from Os-

the largest amount Of wooi ever
bought from one person at the same

pounds, and took considerable effort
to pack it all In one car. The check
