about served its usefulness. The
court square is a beautiful spot, and
with the old Jail building, now used
by the city, removed and with new
court house the square would be
thing of beauty, indeed. The jail COM

will, in all probability, get together
again before either announces his re-
tirement from the arena. Mowatt
hopes to do this before very long, but,
before he does, he is anxious to meet
his old rival once more. The bouts
between Mowatt and Yanger were the
topic of conversation around Chicago
for many years while the fight game
was in full blast, and it is expected
IL the battle is held near Chicago MANY

the first encounter on a Knockout in
six rounds and the next four battles
resulted in draws. -
The Indianapolis and Peoria fight
clubs are after the match and both are
eager to secure the bout for New
Years day. 1t is expected that the
match will be clinched in a few days.

dition and Is anxious for a match.

ADJUSTMENTS.
AT THE LYCEUM.

"Dolly Varden"-A Connical Treat.
Inc management of the Lyceum an
hounce the appearance Of Lillian
Spencer and her big singing organiza-
ton In the comic opera success, DOL
~ Varden," on Friday and Saturday,
December and 8, as one Of the BAN
ner musical events of the season, for
from all reports received from other
cities, this attraction has made a
signal hit everywhere. The charming
and tuneful music Of Dolly Warden"
IS too familiar to followers Of the lat
est compositions, to need much In
PRODUCTION. The fact that 1t is the
work of the famous composer, Julian
Edwards, who has given us some Of
the best comic opera scores in recent
years, puts the stamp Of approval on
1t from the start, and those who have
heard the music of this opera need only
to be reminded of such gems as my
Ships the Girl for Me-" Dainty DOL
ly," I'm Lovers Lane" 1.-The Song Of
the Sword "The Lay of the JAY"
1.-The Cannibal Maid," 1.-THE Navy"
and many splendid ensemble numbers.
IN the stellar role, Lillian Spencer,
one Of the most youthful stars in
comic opera, is said to have surpassed
all her former triumphs in such not
able successes as "Florodora," with
Lillian Russell in Lady Teazlo," and
others Of the same high standard.
Ihough young in years, Miss Spencer
is not young in stage experience, for
she made her first appearance with
the late popular singing comedian,
Fritz Emmett, when she was only
three years old, and first became
famous with him as "Baby Spencer"
one of the cleverest and most magnet
ic children on the stage She has
played continually since that time, in
spite Of the Gerry Society, which kept
her from appearing in New York City
until three years ago. The same mis-
chievous smile and ingenious style
or humor that distinguished her as a
child, has made of her, one Of the
most successful comic opera favorites,
for the title role Of dolly Warden"
is one Of the strongest comedy parts
ever written for, a prina donna. Sur
rounding Miss Spencer in this offer
ing, a splendid cast and one Of the
greatest singing choruses Of the sea-
son. have been supplied by her man
ayers, Milton and Sargent Aborn, it
is said, and the presentation is beauti-
fled by the same lavish setting of
scenery and dainty, colorful costumes
which completed the tremendous sue
cess of Dolly Varden'' from it's first
performance.

this: the American people have

THE PRIMARY LAW,

No law has ever yet been for
mulated that will meet every pos
sible emergency. The best that
can be done is but an approach to
the ideal. AS whole the primary
law Is an advance movement in the
right direction, and should be ex-
tended to all officers, including an
expression by the voters of their
choice for United States senators.
The only criticism the law, thus
far made, that has any special
merit in our opinion, is that it rem
ders possible for members of one
party, to have choice in the Sc
lection of the candidates of the op-
posite party. A very brief amend
ment could Obviate this difficulty.
The law now prescribes how the
judges shall proceed in case Of a
party challenge, and what oath
must be administered to the voter,
before he can vote for the party
of his choice. An amendment to
the law providing for this oath in
every case, challenge or no chal-
lenge, would fill the requirement.
A thing or two must be entrusted
to the honesty of the average man,
If there has been on the part of
voters, at the last election, any
transgression of party lines, it gave
offense to no one but the small poll
tician, who hoped to inflict himself
upon the people by the mere pre-
ponderance of party numbers. Enact
laws as stringent as you will, draw
the lines as tight as you please,
but the people, the common people,
the bone and sinew of our nation,
will have their own way, and vote
for whomsoever they please.
The primary law is good enough.
and ought not to be interfered with.
unless it be to extend it along the
lines already Indicated. It is bad
policy, to be forever tinkering with
a law, so generally satisfactory as
Is the primary election law.

CRANE G. JEFFREY DEC. 10.

In the early days Of the theatre in
England and in this country, the star
system was unknown The stock
company was the thing and as runs
and long engagements were unknown
there had to be constant changes OF
bills. This compelled tie actors to
be versatile. The plays at the time
were meant to fit the stock organic
atiohs and no one character was
strengthened at the expense Of an
, other, but all made as individually
prominent as possible. This Is made
very clear In persual Of the old Eng
fish classical comedies, in which near
ly all Of the characters are star parts.
In the old days "She. Stops to Con-
quer" was a great favorite with the
public and in looking over its early
casts one is impressed with the system
which made the actor play any part
for which he was cast and not the
one of his own selection. At one time
great actor would play Hardcastle,
and at another a great actress would
play Miss Hardcastle. Tony Lump
kin would be made to stand out by a
celebrated comedian and again Dig
cory would be made much Of by an
other comedian. The play had it's
original production in London in 1878.
That same year it was performed in
New York by Hallams Company then
under the management of Douglas
and was the last play given prior to
the resolutions passed by the Prov
incial Congress anterior to the Revo-
luton recommending the suspension
the old casts Of the play as it was Civ
en- at the Arch Street Theatre,
Philadelphia, has the celebrated COM
edian William E. Burton, playing Tony
Lumpkin while young actor named
Jefferson played Diggory. 1t was not
long afterwards that this same young
actor, Joseph Jefferson, played Tony
Lumpkin and made a great hit in it..
The play has had very useful life.
1t was selected as the opening bill at
the New York Theatre in 1910 and
there is little danger that it will ever
grow old. Just now it may be said
to be 1873 years young. The old COM
edies are performed so rerely of late
years that when they are many peo-
pie look upon the seeing Of them as
a duty. For this reason and the tow
ering strength Of it's great cast head
ed by William H. Crane and Miss
Ellis Jeffreys there is an unusual
amount of interest being taken in the
revival Of the comedy to be given at
the Lyceum December 10.
