Hired Girl and Hired Man.

Considerable fuss is being made because an eastern
millionaire has stopped to marry hired girl in Iowa.
Why?
The girl must have graces and personal points the
millionaire would not have chosen her. And it is safe
say that morally she is quite his equal not his superior
There is STOPPING about it.
They level, if anything, the hired girl
just little above the millionaire.
All of us in America who amount to anything hired
people.
No doubt this millionaire is hired man in charge of
big corporation.
Roosevelt is hired man.
And all of senator's and congressman and
diplomats in the pay of the people.
And fellow citizens
One of the things that the matter with this country
is the growing tendency to look down the who
works with his hands, the who works with
her hands.
The tendency is devsh and dangerous.

The new mayor will be responsible for good order and

as police agents. and other lads will be nominated to aid
the park aborers in keeping the grounds clear of rubbish
1t is significant that the boys, 800 in number and of all
classes and conditions under Is years of age stood
whelmingly for political purity.
In this they set pace that their fathers unfortunately
do not always follow.
These boys supposed to be unframed to the res
possibilities and duties of citizenship But if the
spirit which they manifested uniformly manifested
in all regular elections of the land the result would be
revolutionary.
The lads have put upon them the responsibility for the

ADJUSTMENTS

1.-THE Pit" played last night to a
delighted audience which filled every
seat at the Spokane theater.
Mr.. Wilton Lackaye as Curtis Jad-
win, one of the great central figures
of the wheat market, was the domin-
ating feature of last nights perform
ance. A finished and experienced
actor, he took his role in hand and
played it throughout with the grace
and assurance of an artist.
Whether his lines lay amongst the
gay chatter Of the fashionable lawn
party, the gentle quiet of a boudoir
or the struggling, MASKING arena of
the wheat pit, his was always the
voice and presence upon which the
raptest attention was focused.
Throughout the play Mr.. Lackaye
is always strong, original and inter
esting. but his greatest moments are
in the brokers' offices when he finds
that the gigantic game he has been
playing has gone against him.
OF the other members of the COM
pany, there were a few who were
DIolIllllt1l llol dlOllS ny ItdSOll VI
their parts, but by the merit of their
performance.
OF these may be mentioned Miss
Jane Oaker, as Laura Dearborn, after
| wards Jadwin's wife. She had a diff
| fcult part to play, but enacted it with
awomanly grace and sweetness and
showed more than ordinary ability
| in emotional work.
Foster Lardner, as Sheldon Corthell
an artist in love with Laura Dear
born. was one of the strong features
| Of the performance. His scene at
the organ in the third act was done
with consumate cleverness.
Hale Hamilton had not much to do,
but he made a particularly strong i'm
preston as a vulgarian and heartless
| human wolf, of the variety which
shears the lambs to the hide and
tempers not the wind.
William Hazeltine depicted the role
of Samuel Gretry, a big operator on
| the board of trade. with truth and
vividnesS, and shared the honors with
the star in the stirring scene in the
brokers' offices before Jadwin goes
down into the pit.
Ada Gilman was delightful as Mrs.
Emily Vessels, and had her audience
charmed from the start.
The Pit is a remarkable drama: IT
abounds in contrasts and exciting
climaxes: scenes of gentle beauty and
quiet harmony are quickly followed
by moments of intense action, power
and passion.
THE Pit" is given again in matinee
this afternoon and again this even

In the employ of this niece are a

Kentucky Bellies" Three Nights.

Kentucky Bellies" comes to the
Spokane theater Monday, Tuesday
and Wednesday next week. Unlike
the usual run of farce comedies, the
Offering of the Kentucky Bellies"
contains an interesting and original
plot. The comedy is in two acts, is
entitled "Murphy's Mistake" and was
written and staged by Jack Reid, who
plays the principal part. Mr.. Reid is
a comedian of no mean ability. He
is overwhelmingly funny and keeps the
spectators in a fervent of pleasure
and delight while he is on the stage.
Mr.. Reid is ably assisted by Miss
Ella Gilbert, a pretty southern girl.
Miss Gilbert has an excellent soprano
voice which she knows how to use.
Reid assumes the role of Patrick
Murphy. Murphy has been an alder
man for number of years and de-
sires a denomination for the office. So
as a ruse he invites all of his con-
stituents to a lawn party where he
makes a speech in which he tells of
his desire. At the function Murphy

PENNY NEARLY READY.
Expects to Start Kansas College of
Music Next Week.

There is always room at the top,
you know" said Professor George B.
Penny this morning when asked about
the new college of music which he is
organizing here, ''and in looking over
the field, find that the prospectus of
the new Kansas college of music
covers very extensive territory-in
fact the entire middle west.
THE conditions that have led to my
return and the establishment of the
college are, first, the desire to get the
big pipe organ out of debt at the
earliest possible moment. 1 shall do
everything in my power to raise money
for that purpose. Another influence
was the large number of letters which
/ received in New York from old
students and new ones inSuring an at
to guarantee the entire success of the
project. We shall establish a fully
equipped four years course at once,
with enrolIments in the senior junior,
sophomore and freshman classes. Al.
though we do not open until next
Thursday, l have already enrolled.

whom desire to study with me. Mr..
Klingenberg, who is now on the
ocean, will have all that he can posi-
bly, attend to in the pianoforte line
Over half of the letters l have re-
ceived from students have been from
other towns, including Oklahoma.
Still third. consideration in the estab-
lishment Of the college is the assur-
ance that | gave the musical people
of Topeka that 1 would do everything
in my power to make this city a
musical center.
MY new college would be a failure,
if Topeka should fail to realize our
hopes in this regard, as we are design
ing our work with view of attract
ing many of the Kansas young people
who go to Chicago for advantages in
the hearing of music, atmosphere, etc.
We are going to offer courses, the
quality of which will appeal strongly
to students specializing in music, and
to prospective teachers. Oh yes, We
will be a chartered institution, grant
ing diplomas and degrees. No. we have
not yet secured a suitable location, but
