Views Will Give Him Good
Majority for Locks.

The advocates of lock canal at Pan
anna have apparently won their fight in
the Senate. A careful poll. which has
been made. shows that there are forty
six Senators. with possibly one more to
be won over. vino will vote against the
sea-level plan when the bill comes up
tomorrow. and will substitute therefor q
declaration in favor OF the lock type.
This means a majority OF either three
or five in behalf of the less expensive
and more quickly constructed waterway
to connect the Atlantic and Pacific.
House Has Favored Locks.
AS the House has already placed IT.
Eelf on record for the lock plan. the
vote tomorrow at the other end of tho
Capitol will settle the question.
The result IS a signal victory for the
Administration. Three weeks ago. II the
vote on the pending bill had been TAX
en-. the Senate would have indorsed the
sea-levcl idea by a large majority, for
the Democrats were. and are now. prac-
tically united on that plan. and there
was a big Republican vote for II. Then
Senator Allison became i'll. During his
enforced confinement. he read the lit
erature on The canal subject. with the
result that he concluded that time and
money would be saved by ,uilding the
canal with locks. Senator Aldrich fell
in with this idea. and started an ener-

.sAPHO INSPECTED
4 BY THE OFFICERS

The performance of "Sapho" to-
night by the Kathryn Purnell com
pany came very near not being given.
The original translation of the work
from the French, contained some
very questionable phrases. This
version used by the famous actress
Olga Nethersole, was repeatedly
stopped by the authorities, as il wa
considered u little too underdone for
American palates. IN fact the trans
lation called spade by its real name
with candor and frequency. The
city authorities knowing this to be
the case, warned Mr.. Fitzgerald, the
manager of the company, tha' tho
play would be stopped if it contain:
ed any thing Of a suggestive or inn
moral nature. The manager assur.
red the authorities that the version
used by his company was an expur-
gated one, and while the trouble.
making passages had been eliminated
the action or plot Of the piece was
in no way disturbed.
To further convince the gentle
men Mr.. Fitzgerald took his print
book Of the play to the city hall
where a committee composed Of the
mayor, chief, clerk. water and tax
commissioners heard him read the
lines of the play. After he had read
Ien or twelve pages, the committee
cried enough, with the exception Of
the clerk who would have like to
have heard it finished.
Being thoroughly satisfied that
there wasAnothing in the play to Of
fcnd the most fastidiolls, tla se gen
tlemcn Withdrew all objections. and
"Sapho" will be produced tonight
with special costumes and scenery.

PREACHERS MUST
PAY FULL FARE

Unless there is a change from the
present plan, ministers of the gospel
-~ill have to pay full fare when rid
ing on the B. 4 o. the same as other
grown folks. The railroad company
has not yet renewed the clerical per-
mits which entitle the bearers to
ride on its lines for half the ordinary
rate.
1t is understood that some of the
ministers went to the office and ask
ed for renewal through the local
ticket office. They were sent to Bal
timore for renewal but as yet they
have not been returned and the in
terested ones are wondering whether
the wiping out of the railroad pas.
business would extend to the half
fare allowances to ministers.
General Passenger Agent o. II.
Martin has written to agents all
along the line that issuance OF the
tickets has been temporarily sus-
pended, but those who benefited un-
der the old rule are afraid that il
will be permanent.

family Of former popular pastor of
the First PRESBYTERIAN church in
this city:
John. the little son Of Rev. and
Mrs. {. ?. Marshall, had a narrow
escape from being fatally burned one
day last week. He was sitting on
the floor in front of the CRATE play
ing with a comb. In some manner
he held it too close to the fire when
the comb. which was of celluloid
composition. exploded. setting fire
to the child's clothing. His father.
who was in another room, hearing
the child's screams hurriedlv investi-
gated and succeeded in putting the
FIRE ont. Johns face and hands
were painfully burned. but his in
iuries are not serious.

MITCHELL SAYS
HIGHER WAGES

indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 1.-THE
most important work Of the conven-
ton Of United Mine Workers, was
the reading of the report of Presi-
dent Mitchell. He went into ex-
haustiye detail as to the prosperity
Of the organization. His only men,
tion Of the wage question was the
following: II recognize the fact
that there is little sentiment and no
philanthropy in the determination
of our general wage agreements
however it appears to me that mas
much as that we gave relief TO our
employers by accepting lower rate
of wages at the time when there was
little demand for coal, and when
prices were falling below a profit
able margin, they should reciprocate
now and voluntarily share with us
their present prospective prosperity
and | recommend that the scale COM
mittee take these facts into consid-
Grafton in the formulation Of their
report.
The anthracite situation is caus-
ing much uneasiness among miners.
The tension wass somewhat relieved
later last evening by a dispatch 10
the effect that President Thomas, Of
the Lchigh Valley railroad, has made
the statement that anthracite opera
tors would meet the miners commit
tee named at the Shanokin conven-
ton. President Mitchell refused to
affirm or DENY the report. When
Secretary-Treasurer Wilson was ask
-ed concerning if he smiled signif-
refused to make. any state
ment. John Fahcy, one of the mem-
bers Of the Shamokin committee.
would say nothing further than lie
hoped it was true. The real work
Of the convention began this morn
ing with the appointment of the
scale committee and receiving Of
resolutions.

that Mr.. Sinsel will see that every

The fact that the available accom-

New York, Jan. 17-A new move
was made in the job printers strike
in this city yesterday when the
sterotypers and electrotypers were or
dered not t make any plates from
non-union set type. In accordance
with these instructions the electro
typers employed in five of the big
printing concerns in the city. who
had adopted the "open shop" prin-
ciple went on strike. The officers of
Typographical Union No. 6, which
is fighting for the eight-hour day
and the CLOSED shop declare that
the strike of the electrotypers in the
big concerns will hasten the climax
of the fight.
The typathetae issued statement
in which it declares that 19 non-un-
ion sterotypers and electrotypers
have applied for positions at the
high salaries paid in this city. The
typothetae declares the new strike

RECITAL WAS
VERY FINE

The recital at the Baptist church
Tuesday evening, given by the
students Of Broaddus Institute, was
a decided success. A program of
twelve numbers was sendered in a
manner which reflected credit to all
the performers, as well as to the in
Istructors whose efficient work made
SUCH recital possible.
The program was introduced in a
pleasing manner by trio given by
three seniors. \ piano solo by Mr..
Lee Williams, wh9 made his first
appearance as music student,
showed decided ability on the part
of the performer.
The reading Of Miss Chessie Nc
Clung was very difficult one, and
showed painstaking work and thor
ongh preparation.
"Fair Marguerite rendered BY
Miss Grace Harr, brought out sweet
ness of tone which is worthy of cul-
tivation.
The fifth number by Miss Gail
Dorsey, showed marked improve
ment in firmncss of technique.
The audience was then delighted
by the appearance Of large chorus
of mixed voices led by Miss Stew
art. which gave a selection from
E'rhe Rose Maiden" that elected the
warmest applause.
4 piano solo by Miss Lena Bart
lett showed marked Improvement in
wrist movement.
The sprightly. yiyacious manner
in which "The Lovers Quarrel was
rendered BY Miss Mabel Stewart.
provoked laughter and applause.
Miss Georgia Garrett rendered
"Caehouca" in her usual free and
easy manner.
The two numbers by Mr.. Aubrey
Martin showed the possibilities of a
voice which has natural richness Of
tone and accuracy of expression.
Perhaps the highest compliment
which could be given by Miss Willie
Lawson is that her technique is very
much like that of her teacher, Miss
Green.
The program closed with a very
sweet selection by the chorus.
The ability to appear alone on the
platform. to play without notes, and
the marked improvement in techni-
que, showed decided advancement in
the work being done in the school Of
music at Broaddus.
A special request from the audi
ence to hear Miss Green play and
Miss Stewart sing could not be
granted on account of the length Of
the program.
