A Correction

Three lawyers have canedth atten.
tlon OF the editor of this paper to the
use of the word "impeached" in
the weekly NTELLIeENcER in regard
to the testimony of Robt, A. Wilson.
They say that in legal parlance it
means ito successfully break down"
The word was used in its ordinary
literary n of calling in question,
of course, as the lines in which the
word was used show. The testimony
of Mr.. Moorehead and Mr.. Bour was
that MI, Wilson would not say to
item whether or not he paid the
Shull and Weber checks at the time
of the discovery of the alleged for
Mr.. Wilson did not testify
that he did tell them such a thing.
But it was thought only fair to state
the means by which the defence
sought to resist Mr.. Wilson testimony
whether it met the issue or not.
The INTELLIGENoER did not mean to
p jury in this matter.

As A Republican Sees n

from the Central Missouri Republican:
That profound respect which every
true Republican feels for the chic,
magistrate of the nation should no
longer delay a forcible and plaip
spoken disapproval of President
Roosevelt's attempt to influence the
choice of bis successor.
The Central MISSOURI Republican
yields to none in its loyalty to the
party and its leaders, nor to none in
Its admiration Of President Roosevelt
ana the many brilliant things he has
zone for this nation and for the great
political organization which has so
slgnally honored him, but there is
imminent danger that the Republican
party may be sadly injured and the
future usefulness of the president be
destroyed, unless he remain president
ana cease to be a pickering politician
This is not Mexico, neither has the
Republican party lost its vigor.

FIRE IN EXCHANGE HOTEL

On Tuesday night fire was discovered
in one of the rooms in the Exchange
hotel and the firemen quickly re-
sponded.
a stream of water was turned on
and the fire eXtinguished before any
serious damage was done.
Some bedding and woodwork of the
room was slightly burned, but the
larger part of the damage was caused
by the flood which was thrown into
the building from the water works.
The fire is thought to have origi-
mated from defective flue, although
this is not positively known.
The effectiveness of the iwater sup
ply was well demonstrated.

Manager Kelsey of the Lyceum an
nounces for his next attraction on
Sunday afternoon for week that
popular German dialect comedian,
Golden-voiced AL. H. Wilson, in his
new romantic play of picturesque
Switzerland, Metz in the Alps" The
title role is a young German, Metz
Muller (Mr. WILSON,, a soldier OF for
tune, whose poverty is no check on
his efferYescent spirit, nor his mlshaps
to his ambition This enjoyable type
of German is peculiarly adaptable to
Mr.. Wilson's great talents, even more
happily than his former success,
Prince Won Rupert, in "a Prince of
Tatters." The acting company is un-
usually large in numbers, and as each
character necessitates careful por-
trayal, it is none the less great in
talent.
During the action of the play Mr.
Wilson will sing several new songs,
among which are MY Heaven is In
Your Eyes" "Wilson's Lullaby"
"The Snitzlebank," and Songs of
Old Fatherland."

"The Night Before Christmas" I"
truthfully called Hal Reid's best play,
will be presented at the Burt theatre
on Thursday afternoon to close the
week.
In some ways "The Night Before
Christmas" has been compared with
"Ten Nights IN Bar Room" as there
seems to be strong family resem-
blance between the two plays, but in
the treatment they are quite dlssimi-
lar.
Perhaps the strongest scene in the
play is in the third act, where "Abso-
lam Mack" the prosecuting attorney,
and Daniel Webster Mills, ''the far
mer lawyer for the defense, do some
exceedingly clever work. The tragedy
of the court scene is pleasantly re-
lleYed by the introduction of incidents
in much lighter vein. The leading
part, that of Judge Phillips, is played
by Mr.. Jack Drumier, who adequately
impersonates the character, at once
the impartial Judge, obdurate Cover
nor and broken hearted father. and is
a task of no mean dimensions. Mr..
Drumier has succeeded IN making the
character real to his audience. The
balance of the east is far aboYe the or
dinary.
