SCOTT AT CAPITAL
SEES PRESIDENT ABOUT THE
 BROWNSVILLE INCIDENT.
Booker WashlngtOn's Private Secretary Is Received at White House But Gets Little Satisfaction from
 the President.

Washington, Nov. 27,--(Special)--- President Roosevelt today had several negro callers who talked with him about the dismissal of the three negro companies of the 18th Infantry.
 The most prominent ones who went to the White House were Charles w !. Anderson, the Collector of Internal Revenue for New York city. and Elm melt ! Scott, Private Secretary to Booker T. Washington. head of Tuske- gee Institute. These representatives or the race, although they talked some time with Colonel Roosevelt were eN- ceedingly close -mouthed when they left the executive presence. Anderson IS reputed leader of considerable force among his race in the metropolis. lie is also a diplomatic fellow. :.E
 He said in response to numerous in- ouiries that he did not think 1t wise to make public the details of the confer ence He admitted that neither ne nor Scott have the slightest idea ts to what the President will do but 1t was evident that the callers hope from what the President said to them that if any or' the discharged soldiers can prove to the Secretary of War that they did not know anything about the guilty men at Brownsville, Tex, when the shooting occurred the President would aid in having them restorted to the army rolls espectally if they had served long and honorably in the army to this time
 Anderson admits that he and the oth-. CTS engaged in the movement are on thin ice, as he expressed it. and for that reason he said he deemed it best not to state
 Booker T. Washington, 1t is under stood. is intensely interested in the controversy His Secretary hasn't much to say, hut most people are of the opinion that his chief loaded him up with his side of the question.

 The tuneful %Isie of Spice with q combination of good voices. good songs and artistic scenery. was presented Tor the second time at the Montgomery Theatre last night.s Last year fhe Isle of Spice" was greeted with an audience which filled the house. Last night, however. there were many va cant seats.
 ."'rhe Isle of Spice" as presented to Montgomerians last night, was pleas ant production. When light opera has the combination of catchy music, pret- ty choruses and dances, good voices and attractive scenic surroundings, it has pretty nearly all the ingredients which are needful. These 'The Isle of Spice" had last evening, and some of these it had to a strong degree. Es- pecially find was sthe chorus singing and dancing, and especially fine were one or two of the devices of stagecraft employed.
 Perhaps the most effective piece of the entire play was the closing chorus of the first act The entire company was upon the stage. singing The Star of Fate" As they sang, long stream CTS dropped from the wings above, shimmerlns gold, silver. crimson in the calcium. A huge gold and silver star hung until it was suspended just over the heads of the singers, then opened. disclosing the prettiest little girl in the chorus in a boudoir of feecy pink

The duet, You and r. by these two was the most warmly ap- pIauded song of the program, and was encored repeatedly.
 W. J. McGraw and Jack Leslie in the comic roles of Micky O'Grady and Slubey Mackinaw, were rather inferior to the other leading characters of the cast.
 Among the songs which made hit were Uncle Sam's Marines" "The Goo Goo Man. and The Broomstick Witches The work of the Goo-Goo girls in the chorus of the song of the same name was exceptionally fine This piece was encored nine times.
 "The Virginian," with Dustin Farnum in the leading role, will be the bill at lhc Montgomery Theatre Friday night

When the late Emperor Frederick of Germany died the present British King, as Prince of Wales. was in Berlin, where he met among others Herbert Bismark.

The Debs Speech.

The address by Eugene v. Debs
late candidate for president on the
socialist ticket, at the Armory last
Tuesday night, brought out a good
sized crowd Of attentive and respect
ful hearers-just such an audience as
Is due any man who is at the
head OF movement or party SO large
as that Of the socialists. His speech
was very conservative considering the
radical remedies proposed by his party,
and with his statements any fair
minded man could agree. From his
leadership Of the big A. r. q. strike
and his writings in certain socialist
papers, most of the audience went
expecting to hear speech full of
fireworks" but were disappointed in
this. He Is q fluent and easy speaker
and speaks the gospel of socialism
with authority, and much credit is
due the Cresco socialists for their ef-
forts In securing his address for a
Oresco audience.

Rebuilding the fIorenceyiIIe Dam.

During the night OF March 18th.
Ice destroyed the dam across the Up.
per Iowa at Florenceville, and last
week the owner of the mill, Louis
Privat, Of Oak Park, ILL.,, visited
florenceville for the purpose of max
Ing plans and estimates for the recon-
struction Of the dam, provided that
the business men of Granger and
Fiorenoeville and the patrons of the
mill assist him in financial way.
In this connection he visited the bus
iness men and few offthe solid farm
ers IN that vicinity, and met with
much encouragement and substanttal
promises. Mr.. Prlvat asks the pat.
rons to contribute but small part Of
the cost OF rebuilding, although the
benefits of q mill in operation at Flor
enceville will be greater to the two
villages and the farmers than to the
owner of the mill. The new dam will
be built of Portland cement and rock
and will be commenced as soon as the
present high water will permit work
men to commence operations. Abe
Privat Sr., the manager of the mill.
will visit the patrons Of the mill dur
Ing the next few days, securing their
names for such amounts as they may
be disposed to give, payable, If they
so desire, after the work has been
completed. 1t does not seem possible.
