Lecture Course Opens AuSpiclously

An audience which taxed the capa-
city of the opera house filled the
Grand on Thursday evening to witness
Marc. the magician. in the opening
number of the lecture course. This
proved to be one of the most entertain
ing numbers yet offered by the lyceum
bureau in this city, for from beginning
to end the audience was amused by
his wonderful tricks and slight of hand
performances. Prot. Marc ranks at
the top of his profession, and with his
very capable saxophone quartette and
his silouhette and cartoon work makes
up an entertainment filled with
variety of high class amusement. Prof
Bryson and Mrs. Nora Riley took the
place of an orchestra and did it ad-
mirably. It was worth more than
the price of the entertainment to hear
them alone.

Will ThOs. Graham Lose Position?

CONSERVATION was created among
the employees of the state house in Des
Moines last week when the announce
ment was made that Thos. Graham,
Of this city, who has been the efficient
night police of the building for sew
eral years. had been dropped from
the pay roll. 1t was the general
opinion that Mr.. Graham had so
entrenched himself in the esteem Of
his superiors and in fact everyone
about the state capitol that his job
was good as long as he would be able
to perform it's duties. But it seems
that for some reason Custodian Nc
Curdv needs his place for another
man and has discharged him.
1t is more than likely. however.
that Mr.. Graham will not lose his
place. An appeal will be taken to
Gov. Cummins. who esteems him
highly. and if this is of no avail the
matter will he taken into the courts,
on the ground that the soldiers pre-
ference law will apply to his case and
hold the place for him. The custodian
gives no reason for his discharge
except that he thinks his health de-
mands that he relinquish the position
and that he is too fat to do the work.
His friends claim that he is forty
seven pounds lighter than when he
took the position, that he has always
done his duty faithfully, which con-
sists only in seeing that the doors are
locked at night, practically, and that
he is in every way entitled to the place.
His many home friends hope that
he will not he deprived of his position,
for he is getting too far along in life
to look for employment elsewhere. and
they feel that his removal is un-
warranted by the facts in the case.
Custodian McCurdy says that he will
be guided by the wishes of the Gov
ernor concerning his reinstatement.
Later dispatches state that Governor
Cummins has refused to interfere
with the actions of the custodian.
and that he will have nothing to do
with the matter, the question being
entirely in the hands of the custodian.
The next course will doubtless be to
take the matter into the courts.
