Not so long ago Sam Davis was
drummer at the Tivoli-he played the
little drum, at that--but since he has
been a Supervisor he is in position
to start more youths on the path OF
intemperance and place the lives oi
more persons in jeopardy in single
night than any other snare drummer
who ever beat his way TO the front
in this city. With him is his brother
Mo" Davis, who is not maker, but
a cobreaker of the laws.
This is the sort of theater for which
Sam Davis and his brother, Mo, stand
sponsors:

ticket Office on each side are doors
which, when opened, give fair
egress to the patrons. At each cor
ner of the front of the building are
exits, SO there is a fair amount OF
opening on McAllister street. There
is one other exit indicated in the
building, that is on the right-hand
side of the auditorium. near the stage

children of Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis Pat
ton gathered at the old family resi-
dence and had family reunion, the
family consisted Of father, mother
and eight children, all of whom are
married, except one. The children
wished to keep their happy affair a
secret from their parents until their
arrival at the old parental home, so
they met at the home of Nose L.
Patton early in the morning and the
children marched too and too down
to the home of their boyhood and
girlhOod days and a surprise indeed
was it to their parents to see their
children coming home with well filled
baskets. This meant a happy time
indeed. At one o'clock a beautiful
dinner was served and father, mother
and all eight of the children were
seated at the table. This is the first
time they have all dined together
since they began marrying and leav-
ing their parental home. After din
ner they sang some favOrite hymns.
In the afternoon the children return
ed to their respective homes after
spending a most delightful day, fesfl
ing that they had honored their par
ents in their old and declining days.

Away and away from the busy town,
Soft on the sea the stars shine down ;
And nobody knows of the stars and

Away and away the winds breathes

And nobody knows of the wind in the

The roses are red and sweet and fair
And nobody knows Of rose that

the government. If, on the other hand
it returns weakened, it is expected
that period of reaction against the
autocracy will set in, which will only
accentuate the feeling of pessimism
in the empire, arising chiefly from
discomfort with the heavy pressure OF
taxation and the agrarian tariff policy.
Consequently, whatever the result of
the elections, grave dangers and a
new and much more serious crisis
threaten the empires domestic peace.
A prominent feature of the situa-
tion, is the popular resentment that
the Ultramontanes, who acknowledge
the Vatican's supreme rule, are able
to exercise a casting vote in questions
of national Importance, thereby fore
ing dissolution. The Moderates and
Progressists have combined to ter
