We trust that these whispers may

make the race, for we feel assured
that if he does he will be hard to
beat, and his election would give
Obion County one of the best Rep

every expectation of the audience
which witnessed her in the presen-

little woman fairly rose above the
ordinary plane Of acting She lost
herself IN the creation Of the char
acter and filed it with life and
beauty. Her elocution is delicately
shaded, but it is warm and full OF
spirit. 1t is something after the
Maud Adams type-more spiritual
than physical, intelligent in its
scope and conception. There was
another player last Tuesday night

this was Chas. Creighton in his

FROM GUARD
(From Wednesdays Advertiser)

(From Wednesdays Advertiser.)
Felix Torres, Porto Rican prisoner,
escaped about 1880 yesterday noon
from a prison gang working in the
new park Off Nuuanu street above Ku-
akini road, and two hours later he
was captured in Nuuanu stream back
of Mark Robinson's residence.
1t was during lunch time when Tor
res took it in to his head to fbe free.
He walked away from the gang, but
as prisoners often do this while work.
ing around the parks, the guard did
not pay much attention. However.
when he saw Torres keep on walking
and placing too much distance be-
tween him and the camp, the guard
called to him to stop. Torres sprint
ed and ran up Nuuanu valley. The
alarm was given and a search was
Immediately begun. At last the
searchers found Torres hiding in the
stream. He put up a feeble fight, but
was overpowered and taken to Oahu
prison.
At the time of his capture he wore
only his blue trousers and undershirt.
He had gotten rid Of his coat, hat and
shoes.
Torres had already served about
seven months of ten months sem
tence.
