4F1iawatha'

"Hiawatha, " at the Thatcher opera
house this afternoon and the Passion
Play" this evening are such produc-
lions as every person both young and
old will desire to see That beautiful
Indian legend in picture and dramatic
lecture ought TO prove intensely en-
joyablc, and we have the assurance Of
the press and prominent people
throughout the country that the en-
tertanment is all that could be de-
sired. The statement Is made that
Mrs. Bowdeu never does things by
halves, nor does she 80 by hearsay. A
student OF Indian lore for many years,
she, together with Mr.. Bowden, who
was brought up among the Ojibways,
and has known their country, customs
and chiefs all his life, spent the past
two summers in the land of the scenes
of "Hiawatha, drank full Of the at
mosphere of which Longfellow wrote,
witnessed a great number OF perform
ances Of the crude though fascinating
drama, and both Mr.. and Mrs Bow
den were thought so much Of that
they were ADOPTED into the Ojibway
tribe and given Indian names"
The Lyceumite, Chicago, H., says:
katharine Ertz. Bowdens lectures are
worth anybody's time and money.
They represent ii fey of the really
great, artistic achievements in the
line Of illustrated lectures. Mrs. Bow
den is good talker: Mr Bowden is
an expert operator, and these two
working together produce a result that
is beautiful to the eye, pleasing to the
ear and satisfactory all round"

Parsifal'

All admirers Of the chaste In the
art, all lovers OF things beautiful, as
well as the many well.wishers for the
betterment of the stage and the de-
velopment of its possibilities for the
benefit of mankind will, without doubt,
be pleased to learn that the forthcom-
ing production OF Wagner's famous
mystic drama "Parsifal" 49, is an
nounced for Wednesday, October 81,
at the Thatcher opera house. No pro-
duction that has ever been presented
to the American public has been re-
ceived with such univeI >al commenda-
tian and praise that ha', been accorded
"Parsifal'' wherever produced. Schol-
ars and artists, press all clergy, the
ater-goer and church.GJcr, all have
joined in acclaiming 1t the gentlest,
sweetest and most gratifying story
ever enacted upon the stage. This
spontaneous outburst Of appreciation
is not occasioned, as one would be in
clined to imagine, because the play
emaDated from the brain Of one OF one
greatest geniuses that ever lived Rich
ard Wagner. Other men have written
great plays. The cause lies in the fact
that the beautiful story told Is one
that appeals direct to the heart and
soul OF every man or woman that has
spark Of blood in their veins; that
every speech and action used in the
development Of the simple story are
so intensely dramatic that one sits alb
solutely enthralled with their power
and impressiveness. Every thing and
all pertaining TO the play is so differ
ent from what we have been so long
accustomed to witnessing upon the
stage, that one almost seems to be in
another world while under It's mag
netic and dramatic influence. You
watch and wait, with baited breath,
each succeeding action and word of
the characters appearing in the play.
You do not wish to lose one word or
act of the whole spectacle, for each
one seems to be weighted with so
much significance and relation to the
one preceding it that you fear lest you
might lose the thread of the thrilling
and soulstirring theme and story. 1t
is this intense interest, this absorbing
attention, that the play exacts, that
holds you spelloound from beginning
to end of each of the four acts of this
remarkable production.

RACE RIOT TAKES PLACE AT sEAFORD.
Negroes Caught by Enraged Citizens and

Negroes Caught by Rnraged Citizens aud
Beaten Into lnsensibity; White Men Injured
Says the Wilmington Sunday Star:
As result of the influx of negroes
at Seaford, from Maryland and Vir-
ginia, a serious disturbance occurred
in that town Saturday night. White
citizens patroled the streets and every
strange negro was run out of town.
The trouble started over a strange ne
gro striking white boy. The citizens
becoming alarmed, formed into small
army, and began running and beating
negroes wherever found. John Walker
was caught and beaten into insensibil-
ity. Joseph Selby, another negro,
was knocked down with a plank and
kicked into the street. The town
lookup was filled and temporary Jail
was constructed to hold more negroes.
1t was evident, as early as six o'clock
that there would be trouble and the
uembers of the Town Council immed-
lately put on an extra force of police
men. This, however, did not stop thu
turbulent negroes. William 7. Russo
a travelling man from Cumberland
Md. was attacked by the negroes AM
had to fight his way out. AS a resul
he had finger broken and was injured
internally. Linden Short, younI
man of Seaford. was also attacked ant
terribly beaten. The merchants wer'
compelled 10 close their stores, fearlni
attacks from the crazed negroes, IL
add to the horror of the citizens tn
electric lights went out about
o'clock. Pistol shots were heard IN al
directions and razors and knives wei
seen glittering in almost every negro
hand. Negroes sprang up on ever
street and at late hour serious r.
suits were feared.

The noteworthy feature Of the rail
road control measure which, after pass
ing the Ohio senate by unanimous
vote. has now passed the house, is that
Il applies TO the state the principle. and
largely the forms, which the Dolliver-
Hepburn bill applies TO interstate com
merce. Under II a state railroad com
mission Of three members will have over
state hauls not only all the powers
which the Interstate Commerce commits
sion would have over hauls crossing
state boundaries. but also many other
powers. for its jurisdiction is to extend
over sleeping cars, interurban and cleo
trio railways Of all kinds, while the
measure includes also prohibition under
most drastic penalties of free transpor-
tation to all public officers.
But the vital point is The complete
control which 1t is intended the public
authority in Ohio shall henceforth have
through this system over all charges on
freight moved from one point to any
other within the state under prohibitions
of unfair charges and determinations or
cOnspiracies against trade in any way
involving railroad transportation. Ample
power is conferred on the commission
where a local rate is found by the state
commission, after investigation, to he
excessive or unfairly discriminatory. not
only TO annul it, but also to compel the
railroad TO put in force a reasonable
rate in its stead, and that. too, in case
of a joint rate.
Ohio thus is the first state since the
subject of effectively controlling inter
state rates has come up decisively in
congress to extend logically the same
principle to state rates through state au.
thorlty. The latter is the complement
of the former. The people, after pro
tecting their interests from railroad
abuses in interstate commerce, will
never again consent to leave unprotected
their interests in commerce within the
state. One state after another, as the
legislatures meet. may be now conf
IDENTIFY expected to take up this work as
Ohio has done.
A state like Iowa, which for twenty
years has led the way in restricting
local freight rates, will have only to ad.
just public authority. In Nebraska,
where excessive charges and the great
est determinations exist in local freight
tariffs and where the railroads have al
ways been able to defeat the efforts of
the people for relief therefrom. the
emergency is more serious and the diff
fieulties in meeting it greater, but the
public is now so aroused that nothing
can prevent control here also of local
freight rates.

Office he instituted the most vindictive
and relentless persecution OF Moores.
The most rank and indefensible ac-
ton Of william ]. Broatch, acting in an
official capacity, was the appraisement
Of the chattels Of the lessee Of the state
penitentiary. A bill appropriating S35-
600 for this purpose was lOg-rolled
through the legislature by the peniten-
tiary gang and Broatch was appointed
as one OF three appraisers. The chat
tets consisted Of several pair Of spawned
old mules. four or five old wagons, a
job lot Of convict clothing and supplies,
and some worn out machinery and tools.
A most extravagant estimate Of the
value Of this aggregation OF bric-s-brac
was 5000, but Broatch and his two
associates appraised the chattels at
$4,000, voting themselves $500 each for
one days inspection, and leaving $500
in the treasury as a balance. 1t took
several years for Broatch to outlive this
scandal. but it can never be atoned for.
AHN FdItl anu UtInug AndA
has characterized Broatch through all
his political life is now again mani
tested. AS a member OF the Fontanelle
club he presented his name for endorse
ment to its board of governors and ex-
ecutive committee. Under the pledge
made to the club be was in honor bound
to abide its choice. but the word
"honor" is not TO be found in the die
tionary Of the man who allows nothing
to stand in the wsy of his ambition and
will stoop TO anything in the political
calendar to crafty his insane desire for
domination.
The career OF Mr.. Broatch as a mem.
Der Of several police commissions is so
well known that comment would be
superhuous. 1t remains to be seen now
whether the republicans Of Omaha will
endorse Broatch and all the odious and
dishonorable methods for which Broatch
stands.
