ADJUSTMENTS.
Coming Attractions.
Grand-Bolshazzar.
one Of the Greatest Operas.

The story of Belshazzar's downfall
will be told in song at the Grand Opera
House next Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings, November Goth and 3tOh, by
about rs Of the leading singers Of sa-
lem, who are training for this beautiful
sacred opera, under the direction of Mr.
Martin +. Robinson, who produced
"Queen Esther" here last June. From
the success scored by the former opera,
there is every reason to believe that
the present production will be far supe-
rior to anything ever produced in this
city by local talent.
The music is of much higher order
than of most entertainments attempted
by amateurs, and the opportunities for
dramatic effects are greater than per.
haps in any of the historical stories
that are told in song. All who attend
"a "oSesn Esther" have expressed
themselves as being greatly surprised
that such a number of singers who were
not accustomed TO working together
could attain such degree of perfection
in 80 short time, but those who hear
Belshazzar will be more than pleased
10 know that such good chorus can be
found here, and the results attained in
"Queen Esther" are far surpassed in
the present production. The effect of
the male choruses are wonderful, and
they are bound to make the hit of the
evening The dramatic scene when the
handwriting is flashed upon the
wall and great CONSERVATION is de.
pieted upon the countenance of the as
sembled court never fails to thrill the
audience.

The unsatisfactory street car service In
some parts of the city was one of the
topics discussed at the council meeting last
night. The matter was brought to the at
tention of the city fathers by Councilman
Olson. who reported some of the many
complaints made in regard to the open
dummy cars on the cable line.
"The company is operating those little
dummy cars, which are so small that lad!es
sitting down are many times lnsulted by
having some man standing almost on top
of them when the cars are crowded, ne
said. "The company gives the excuse that
one strand of the cable is broken and II
cannot operate the larger cars until 1t is
repaired That may be so, but the TACT Is,
we never had decent service on that line.
Councilman Olson then introduced a
resolution to the effect that the city at
torney be required to examine the iran
chise Of the company and see II under lUs
provisions it cannot be compelled TO give
better service. The resolution passed by
a unanimous vote.
"While we are on the street car ques-
ton" said Councilman Hammond Il
would like to suggest an investigation as
to the right of the company to use the
streets for car barns"
Councilman Hammond had reference to
the two Point Defiance cars lett standing
all day on G street near Ninth street.
During the rush hours of the evening the
company operates double headers" us
ing two extra cars. During the day these
cars are left standing in the middle of the
street. This matter also was referred to
the city attorney.
Although it was not referred to in the
council meeting, several very strenuous

MURDER IN SEATTLE TENDERLOIN

SEATTLE, Jan. 7.-Evidently for the
purpose of robbery, CHASTITY murder was
committed in the restricted district last
night, few teet from and almost within
sight of the sidewalk. At 8 o'clock last
night the body of Georgette Flynn was
found with seven knife wounds in her
neck and the whole left side of her head
crushed in. The woman lived in the alley
just back of the Old Town saloon, on the
corner of Fifth avenue and King street.
At $3.50 last night John Malcolm saw
the woman sitting at her window. Thirty
minutes later her dead body was found
lying on the bed. Nick Kennedy, who
runs the Old Town saloon, stepped out
to get breath of fresh air and noticed
that the woman's door was open. This
was unusual, and he investigated. He
discovered the murder and gave the alarm.
Blood was still running from the wounds
in the neck when Kennedy found her.
No explanation of the murder can be
given by the police except that the motive
was robbery. The woman is not known
to have had any trouble with anyone. A
peculiar feature of the murder is the fact
that the wounds in the neck were made

sent inquiries to the American diplomatic
and consular agents throughout Europe
asking what grounds if any existed for the
rumors Of impending massacres. The re-
Plies to these inquiries would indicate that
no, foundation whatever exists for the
widespread apprehension among the people
OF the Jewish race. If any further i'll
treatment or killing of the Jews had been
contemplated it is believed that the agita-
tlon IN the United States and England
over the first massacre would cause the
Russian government to take vigorous steps
to prevent any further slaughter of the
helpless people.

GEO. KGTCHAM.

TOLEDO, o., Jan. Coco. H. Ketcham
may appear ON the grand circuit next sea-
son with Cresceus 1:5934.
1t seems to be pretty certain that the
monarch of the Mile" will, in his
eleventh year, appear to contest for the
honor which was wrested from him by
Smathers' Maj. Delmar and Billings Lou
Dillon.
just at present the chestnut stallion is
at the Ketcham stock farm at Cresceus,
seven miles west of this city. His coat is
just as shiny, his great eye as full of fire,
his legs as powerful and manner as docile
as when he was crowned king of the trot-
ting world, rebuilt the Ketcham fortunes,
brought Geo. Ketcham to the fore as a
reinsman of national Importance and full
filled the prophecy of John Splain that
Cresceus would same day become the
champion trotter.
By the way, that veteran of the yellow
oval is one of Ketcham's stanchest
friends. 1t was he who with the Toledo
driver, introduced the trotter in England,
and it was he who advised Ketcham, to
buy Robt. McGregord. He believed That
hCOIeBol, properly lhdIcu, Woulu pIouuSC
the fastest trotter in the world. And the
faith in the blood lines was verified.
1t has been said that Splan taught
Ketcham all he knows about the trotting
game. This is perhaps broad statement,
but it is fact that Honest john in
stilled the rudiments of the sport into the
mind of the Maumee horseman. The lat
ter part of the education was learned on
the track, where experience is the best
teacher.
son down the big circle, there is more
than mere rumor in it, Many Toledoans,

clare he will send the yellow horse after

WELL, THEY
MAKE ENOUGH

CHICAGO, Jan. AT their annual
meeting held here today the stockholders
OF Swift & Co. acted favorably on the
proposition to increase the capital stock
OF the company from $25, 100000 to $685.
OOO,OOO. The new stock is to be issued at
par and to be used in acquiring wholesale
distributing markets and refrigerator cars
The small margin of profit in the packing
industry and at the same time the mann
moth extent OF that industry is illustrated
by the figures contained in the annual re-
ports of the Swift company, which show
a profit of 10000 900 on gross sales for the
year exceeding 5000, 1000, 900.

match with either Lou Dillon or Mai.
Delmar next year.
just at present Ketcham is in England
visiting his friend Walter Winans, the
millionaire lover of trotting horses, who
has done more than any Englishman to
introduce the trotter in England. Eddie
MITCHELL the former caretaker of Cresceus,
who succeeded Tim Thurman as superinten-
dent of the Ketcham farm. is now in
charge of Winans' stables, position Ket-
cham secured for him.
1t is openly said here that Ketcham will
borrow Eddie to come over and assume
charge of the stallion after the stud sea
son, in order that the horse may have
the care the little fellow alone knows how
to give him.
With Mitchell to care for him and Wet
cham to train and drive him, Toledoans
believe the champion stallion to be in
vincible. Of course, Ketcham had retired
his horse from the track to the stud, but,
unable to resist the benefits to be derived
from a transforming tour of the north
and west, he last season took Cresceus
around the "bullrings" and when, after
several attempts, he stepped a mile in
l:59M at Wichita Kas. { the first mile
better than 2:00), he felt that he had
achieved all that he could ask for.
The aspersions cast upon Ketcham's
reputation by drivers and sporting writers
in general, followed by the failure of the
authorities to take action, either to de-
clare the record ineligible or letter per-
feet, caused him to decide upon another
campaign next season.
To this end next spring will see Cres-
ceus getting the workouts in the deep
sand around the farm, that gave him the
muscle and heart that made him the time
annihilator he is. He will be sent to one
of the grand circuit tracks, Columbus or
Cleveland preferred, to prepare for the
task of lowering his own record or meeting
in match races Lou Dillon or Maj. Del
mar.
