Bryan Got Rich on Politics.
Bryan thinks it wrong to make
money out of politics. This boast of
his puts the stamp Of insincerity all
over him. II Bryan thinks it wrong
to make money out of politics, he
should quit making money, Bryan has
not one dollar that he ever made out
of any thing but politics
He tried to be a lawyer; he was a
failure at il. He tried to be a news
paper editor, he was a failure at that
HE is now a man Of property As
fortunes go he is a rich man. He
made every dollar Of his fortune out
of politics as a stepping stone to the
lecture platform. Bryan discovered
many years ago that he could make
his political prominence pay.
He is a shrewd advoeator and in
his way a clever business man. He
has discovered that SO long as he is
a candidate for president and the pos
sible nominee gifted with ability to-
weave flowing sentences into well
rounded periods, the public will come

this challenge:

accused me of proiiting by fraud. then
he ought to quit running for president;
because no man is fit to be a candi-

DAINTY ADELAIDE THURsToN.

Inc name OF Adelaide ThurstOn is
known, and favorably so, in every por-
ton of the United tSates. The rapid
rise of this clever artist in her chosen
profession has been the cause of more
than passing comment among her
world of admirers. 1t was in Kansas
City where she spoke her first lines
upon any stage. AS young and mex
perienced as she was, those who had
the pleasure of seeing her could not
we'll refrain from growing enthusiast
tic in her behalf, and predicting for
her future that would attract the at
tention of the theatre-going public
throughout the country.
Whatever may have been the opinion
of the public regarding Miss Thurston
as young girl, it would seem that she
has accomplished all and even more
than her greatest admirers in her girl
hood days had reason to anticipate.
From the very beginning her pro-
gress seemed not only rapid but sure
1t was while appearing in a small
company, and playing small part as
pened to be in the theatre on the &C.
casion, recognized the extraordinary
ability of this young girl and immedi-
ate!y engaged her for "The Little Min
ister." to play Lady Babbie' in that
famous piece contemporaneous with
Maud Adams. The tremendous impress
sion, her youth and beauty, and her
great popularity with the theatre
goers throughout the entire coun-
try at that time, laid the founia-
ton of her Independent starring car
eer. She was introduced to the public
as star in the city of Norfolk, Vir-
ginia. The play was Sweet Clover"
and her impersonation of Lois Hol-
comb received commentator of the
highest order.
During the past season Miss Thurs
ton has appeared with her usual sue
cess in w. A. Tremayne's and Irving
l.. Halls English comedy, The Tri-
umph of Betty. 1t will doubtless
please the reader to learn that the
new play to be presented by Miss
Thurston, "The Girl From Out Yon-
der" affords her the greatest scope
for her talents she has ever had as
it calls for many Of the qualities Miss
Thurston displayed in her portrayal of
Lady Babbie In The Little Minister"
The play is by Pauline Phelps and
Marion Short who gave most brilliant
promise in their other plays written
for Miss Thurston, Sweet Clover"
and "Cozy Corners" 1t is a heart
story pure and sweet, true and strong,
convincing and entertaining. 1t is in
short all things that are desirable for
a day. Miss Thurston will be at the
Metropolitan on Monday night.

IN GLADSTONE.S MEMORY.
associated Prc.s Cable to The Evenins

Times.
London, Dec. 29.-E is surpris-
ing fact that, though less than de-
cade has elapsed since he passed from
the stage OF English public life. the
birthday anniversary of William Z.
Gladstone is allowed to come and so
almost unnoticed. But for few lone
ly wreaths deposited about the base
of the Gladstone monument in front of
st. Clement Danes church there was
nothing to recall the fact that, today
was the anniversary of the birth of him
who but few years ego was honored
as England's Grand Old Man" The
observance or lack of observance of
Gladstone's memory is in lamentable
contrast to the annual celebrations in
honor of some whose services to their
country were neither so substantial
nor SO enduring. The only explana-
ton is to be found in the fact that
Gladstone's personality was mot of
that picturesque character to appeal
to the imagination of the people, and
which has led to the popular celebra-
ton Of Primrose Day in memory of the
late Lord Beaconsfield.

ADJUSTMENTS
NAV FIGMAy.

Max Fiixss....,a in The Man on the
Box will be the attraction at the
Metropolitan thesser on Tuesday next.
Mr. Flgman is one Of the most finished
actors on the American stage and
brings a comedy that is the dramatic
alton of one OF the nest popular novels
of late production and which has the
endorsement Of New York City as a
play for a run Of over three hundred
performances. MIR. Figman will be
supported by an exceptionally clever
company 2nd will have all the ad-
vantages q complete scenic produc-
ton even down to the mipute details
of furniture and draperies.F The cast
will include Messrs. Morgan Wallace,
Wilson Forbes, John c. Brownell,
Ernest P. Orr, Reginald Fife, Marshall
Franklin. Edward johnson, John Pear
son. Miss Helen Holmes, Clara Louise
Chapman. Beatrice Mcclure and Ceta
Woodland Bennett.
Max Fgman has been identified
with SO many successes of the New
York stage and achieved so many
triumphs that he Is almost as we'll
known as many stars of older estab-
lishment. 1t has been a matter of
wonder for some time why some enter
prising manager has not made star
of him before this, and it is only his
retiring disposition that has held him
back. However, he is now under a
contract with Mr.. John Cort for Il
term of years and is fixed star.
New plays are being written for him,
and early in the spring his manage
ment contemplates placing him in one
of the New York theaters for an ex-
tended run.
Mr.. Figman has made happy selec-
ton in The Man of the Box" for his
first starting tour. 1t is not only an
established success, but the title roll
fits him like a glove, and it is doubtful
If there is another actor in this country
who can do the character so much
justice. The Man on the Box" was
dramatized by Grace Livingston Fur
Mss from Harold McGrath's book of
the same name, and constructed into
an hilarious comedy with pretty love
oIOAS ohu a SIAOu6 uCdII luIST0SI. II
relates how Lieut.. 'Worburton has seen
a pretty girl on the steamer while
returning from Europe. How when he
gets home from Washington he plans
a practical joke on his sister by taking
the coachman's place on the family
carriage with the intent of driving
home recklessly, then jumping down
and impressing heart kiss on his
sisters cheek. He carries out the
program, but gets the carriage calls
mixed at the last moment and drives
off with two young ladies who happen
to be the object of his affections and
a friend and the result of the joke is
that he spends the night in a police
cell. With this foundation the drama
fist has constructed play without
a dull moment in it and Astounding in
clever dialogue and brilliant dramatic
situations.

output and considerable proportion Of
the copper production. They own the
Guggenheim Exploration company,
which has developed immense mining
properties in Mexico and the far west.
and which has vast enterprise now
under way for making the mineral
wealth Of Alaska accessible. Simon
Guggenaeim has been the western
representative of the family for nearly
dozen years. He was educated in the
public schools of Philadelphia and was
sent abroad by his father to pick up a
knowledge of foreign languages and
the business methods of different Eu-
ropean countries. He has a thorough
knowledge of the smelling business
and is regarded as one Of the ablest
mining experts in the country.
