EVANS WILL NOT RUN
Puts a Quietus on Talk of His
Candidacy For
Mayor
PETITIONS FOR MASS MEETING
Participants at Sutton Meeting are
Circulating Petition For Mass
ing to Consider the Pavement Mat
ters-councilman Webster Replies to
sutton's Letter.

Mr. Evans has put Il sudden stop to
all the street talk that has been go
ing on regarding his possible candidacy
for mayor. He addresses Il commune
cation to this paper, phrased in no
doubtful manner, In which he refuses
to be even considered as candidate.
Parties who were Interested with him
in the meeting of Wednesday night
were circulating petitions yesterday
asking for a mass meeting to consider
the paving matter.
Those who had the work of circulate
ing the petitions in charge say that
they met with very good success and
those approached for their signatures
showed Il great deal Of interest in the
movement.
Mr.. Evans says:
Editor mes-Republican.
For fear that an injustice might re-
suit to the gentlemen named In your
article of last night with reference TO
a mass meeting, in so far as 1t sug-
gests that the movement was started
in the political interests OF some per-
son, l wish to state that i am not a
candidate for mayor, and would refuse
to be candidate under any circum-
stances whatsoever Your article. 50
far at is refers to me, to say the least,
was misleading In the extreme as all
of my friends know that such move
ment on by behalf by any body of men
would fall far short of inducing me to
run. Respectfully yours w. A. Evans
1t Is contended by Mr.. Evans with
every evidence of consistency that MS
only interest in mass meeting pro-
iect Is the formation of good citl-
zenship league, which has been pet
enterprise with him for some time.
1t is his hope that such a league can
be formed along strictly non-partisan
lines. free from all complications with
the ambitions of politicians. and one
that will continue to serve watchiul
purpose over city affairs and city OH
cials even after the paving matter mas
been Investigated and disposed. AS
an evidence OF his intense interest IN
this movement he was willing to head
a subscription for funds with Whlch 10
pursue the paving investigation.

Magnificent Production.
A variation from the ordinary routine
a small audience at the Odeon last
night, with the appearance Of Miss
Amber Lawlord, an unknown star, in
an unknown modern-day society
drama, "An American Woman" The
production in itself was magnificent;
in fact absolutely perfect. as far as
costuming and settings are concerned,
and the cost Of putting 1t on the road
is said to have been 100000. The APP
pearance here was but the second, as
Miss Lawlord opened Wednesday night

was with the "The Fit" Company last
year. She is ambitions in the extreme.
and if her financial support holds out
her ambitions may be realized. AS

a box office standpoint. In many ways
the play is unique. and In others 1t is
not decidedly strong. 1t Is typically

says that he saw a large covey in the
road the other day, and there were at
least twenty fine birds, feeding from
stray bits OF corn and grain that had
been dropped along the highway. Carl
Schmitz. who is an enthusiastic
sportsman, and a keen observer OF the
habits of game. took a tramp last Sun
day north of the city, to see If he could
find signs of any birds. He knew
where coveys had been located prior to
the storm, and with his two dogs went
over the territory just to satisfy his
curiosity. The dogs found two large
sized coveys, one in the hedges and
another in corn field, and Mr.
Schmitz now believes that more Of
the birds escaped the severe storm
than he had thought possible.

tally the "frenZied' portion. that the
lines dealing with the important part
of the story, will not be fully grasped.
Miss Lawlord, as an actress, is
somewhat of a disappointment altho
the newness of the piece may be par
TALLY responsible. Her lines show
training as an elocutionist. but lack
the artistic finish that comes from the
training of professional experience.
This. in time. however, may be over
come. Miss Lawlord is beautiful
young woman. and her gowns. for
richness and elegance. could not be eX-
celled. Her support was very satisfac-
tory.
In private life Miss Lawlord is Mrs.
w. T. Morgan. She was Kentucky
girl, was married young. and few
years ago lost her husband. who was
accidentally killed by friend while
hunting. She has two beautiful little
daughters. the elder Q years of age.
