On Thursday evening, Miss Ina Ro-
gers and brother, A. B., and, Messrs.
Mothershed, Simmons and NTucker
Johnston called on Misses Allie Brown
and Corinne Haddick, at the Green

of choice selections in piano, violin,

to the old folks as well as young
The 19O6-07 term of Rogers school
closed on Friday; no exercises other
than usual routine.
This has been as successful a term
of this little school as it has ever
known, and we are under obligations
to Miss Allie c. Brown, our Jealous,
obliging little teacher, whose noble de.
votion to her sense of right, contrib
uted as much as any thing else to
making success of it. We can not
find words suitable to express our ap-
probation of the action of our able
superintendent, W. H. Smith, who
has demonstrated in this instance his
willingness to do all in his power, in
side his legal duties, to help those who
are disposed to help themselves. May
he live and prosper until he gets SC
old that he dries up; and any time he
wants anything in the gift of the peo.
pie, he can just set this "old son of a
gum down for one every day andSun-

Jersey City, N. J., Mar. 1.-Gov- ernor Stokes having signed the bill authorizing under-sheriffs to act for the sheriffs in executing the judg- ment of the court in capital cases, where the penalty imposed is death by hanging, announces that the law only applies to capital crimes com mitted prior to today, as on and af- ter this date the death penalty will be electrocution conducted by the head keeper of the state prison. The latter law though passed last year did not become operative until to- day as no appropriation to carry it into effect was made by the last leg islature.

GLASS FACTORIES
 SHUT DOWN

Pittsburg, Pa., Mar. 1.-Nearly all the handmade window glass fac tories are now closed down. While the time for closing all factories for the summer is, according to agree ment, June 30, a number closed three weeks ago and only few fires now remain working in the glass trade. This is taken as evidence that the window glass market is in as poor shape as ever 1t was in the

play that never grows old is Dumas Monte Christo and in the hands of such capable company as presented it last night at the Audi torium it has new charms, says the Waco (Texas) Times-Herald.
 James O'Neill, the greatest Ed mund Dantes that has ever inter- preted the part, was at his best last night, and it is such ability, and the splendid conception of the char acter as given by Mr. O'Neill is the reason that people never tire of the production.
 MT. O'Neill, notwithstanding his years, retains his vigor, his elas- -ticity, and his ability, and some critics assert that he makes bet ter Dantes now than ever before. His ability has always been recog- nized, and he was given an ova- tion in Waco as he has been given in every point where he has appear ed, and he will be given a hearty reception at every point he visits and his admirers everywhere hope that he will change his mind in making this his farewell tour.

 It is generally conceded to be q condition of dramatic art that hu- man interests must be paramount, and this condition has been compli- ed with in the translation of "Par- . sifal." Abstract ideas and poetic fancies are made real in the char acters and experiences of living per- sons. The faith that good shall be the final goal of i'll forms the leg end wrought out to certitude in the action of the play. The futility of low cunning, craft, duplicity and all the nobler intelligence which comprehends but disregards them all, is demonstrated in the thrilling music drama, which centers around the personality of the son of many generations of soldier sires, whom his mother would have made shepherd of but whom destiny made a king. There is sound philosophy and true art in the final description of the personality of Parsifal.
 A guileless fool-in the eyes of the foolish-not by wrath, nor by cynicism, nor by cheap worldly wis dom, but by pity enlightened.
 As spectacle "Parsifal" is a tre- mendous enterprise; the scenery is on a lavish scale and the illumina- tions and electric effects form striking feature of the production. An augmented orchestra of twenty musicians will render the soul-stir- ring strains of Parsifa1 as an ac- compartment to the wondrous text.
 The hour of commencement will differ from that of the former GUS tom, the long dinner intermission having been eliminated now permits of giving the play at one sitting. The curtain for the evening per formance will rise promptly at 7:45. Auditors should be in their Seats when the performance begins, as none will be seated during the action of the play.

Innumerable employees who expected steady work until late in June have been laid off until next September, when the fires will be started again.

Bandit Robs Two Stages.

UIiah, Cal, July 29.-The stage
leaving this city for Witter Springs,
Blue Lake and Upper Lake was held
up Sunday by a lone bandit and Is
passengers were tied up alongside of
the conveyance and relieved of their
jewelry, money and other valuables.
A few minutes later a second stage
from Ukia, bound for Potter Valley
and carrying about 10 passengers
came into view and the robber pro
ceeded to line these people along the
roadway with the occupants of the
first stage, and appropriate all that
they possessed of value.
After making sure that he had Sc
cured all the valuables the passengers
had possessed, he ordered them to pro

.CRUMBLING WALLS KILL TEN
Disastrous Explosion in New York
Tenement is Unaccountable.

New York, July 3O.--An explosion
accompanied by fire shattered an East
Side tenement and with the crumbling
walls 10 persons went down to death,
while twice as many were probably
fatally injured.
The explosion is as yet unaccOunt-
ed for and tore out the front of the
building and the fire that followed
caught the 20 families, numbering
about 100 persons, while most of
them were sound asleep. Not until
the ashes have cooled will it be pos
sible to recover the bodies of the dead.
OF the injured many jumped from the
windows, others were caught by fall
ing timbers, many, half suffocated by
smoke, were dragged from the hall
ways, while others received their
wounds during the panic and mad
fight with each other for an exit.

the mutinous Korean troops in Seoul

The uprising occurred so suddenly
that the mikado's forces in the Kor-

surprise. The attack was made first
against the police, whom they fairly
swept before them.
The Korean soldiers started the
rioting. The populace quickly joined
them. The soldiers were formidable
from their organization and arms,
which the Japanese have not felt
strong enough to take from them.
Seven of the finest Japanese resi-
dences in Seoul were sacked and des-
troyed with scarcely an effort at re-
sistance by the mikados forces.
Many Japanese have been injured

numbers is impossible.
The outbreak is, Of course the di
rect result of Japanese domination OF
the country, general dissatisfaction
with the new treaty and the deposi

The Korean cabinet members are

They have taken refuge in the pal

doubtless be able to protect them

Judge TuthiPs Advice to Woman
Beaten by Spouse.

Beaten by Spouse.
Chicago.-The killing of husbands
who beat their wives was advocated
by Judge Tuthill in the course of a
divorce suit tried before him today.
Indignant at a woman's description
of the inhuman treatment to which
she had been subjected by man who
claimed to be "her master" and
aroused by statements that his abuse
had taken place in the presence of
men who would not interfere, Judge
Tuthill declared that in extreme cases
violence should be met with violence,
20 matter what the consequences.
1T is a woman's duty either to kill
a man or get away from him." was the
judges emphatic utteranee.
The court also recommended that
neighbors should rush in to a suffer
ing woman's rescue and assail the
wOman-beater with any missile or
weapon to hand He announced that
any one who took such action would
find friend in him.

FORAKER wHAcks THEM.
Gets After Roosevelt, Taft and Till

man.
Beliefontaine, Ohio.-If public
mans head escaped a crack at Sen
ator Foraker's hands recently it was
because the senator failed to see It..
Roosevelt and his big stick" Taft
and his presidential candidacy, Till
man and his race antipathies, and
Burton and his senatorial aspirations
received especial attention. Senator
Foraker has refrained thus far from
any direct reference to the talk of
Taft as a presidential possibility. In
his speech here tonight he made 1t
clear that he not only proposes to
fight vigorously for his own political
life, but will do all in his power to
see that Taft fails of the presidential
nomination.
"The big stick" he said, won't
work with any free born American,
nor will it do any good to sugar it
with a postofIice job"
Then he turned to Taft. Pm not a
candidate for Office" he said. but il
| should be l would not get lockjaw
don't have to hold Office to live
Secretary Taft is reported to have
said not longer than the day before
yesterday that he wanted tariff re
vision. Former Governor Herrick said
he wanted it, too. l don't wonder
| Congressman Burton, who is said
to want my place in the senate, is
another who wants revision. l would
like to know where these men who
want to be candidates are to begin tC
revise. They say Taft is going tC
run for president. l understand he

is going to revise the tariff. These
aspirants for Office must take posi-
tons on the nations great problems
before | vote for them. I'm beginning
to be particular for whom l vote"
Then the senator turned to Tillman
arguing that the 14th and 18th amend
lments to the constitution were made
necessary by the situation created b!
lsecession. Men like Tillman and Var
daman do not voice the south's true
sentiments. Andrew Jackson, he re
marked, and here by innuendo h
raped Roosevelt again, was one o
the presidents who believed executive
power everything, and undertook re
construction without consulting thu
congress.

Big STEAMER BURNS.
FATAL ACCIDEND ON LAKE
CAYUGA, N. 7.
Steamer in Flames in Middle of Lake
Mad Race to Shore, Where the
Steamer Was Beached in Seven
Feet of Water-Nne Lives Were
Lost.

Auburn, N. Y, July 29.-The steam
boat Frontenac was burned and
beached opposite Farley's point at
Lake Cayuga and nine lives were lost.
The victims were all women and
children passengers and all were
drowned. Several other passengers
were severely burned before the boat
could be beached. She lies burned
and blackened under seven feet Of
water The bodies of the drowned
women and children have been recov-
cred. The following were drowned
and the bodies subsequently recov-
cred: Miss Homer Genung, Free
vile; Carl Genung, years old; Mrs.
zalia McCreery, Cohoes; Miss Ida
Bennett, Frankfort Miss Stella Gin
ton, Ithaca; Miss Marietta Sullivan,
Syracuse; 6-year-old daughter of
Howard Able, South Bloomington;
two unidentified women.
The NEST seriously burned are:
Mrs. Able, South Bloomingsburg;
Eliza futile, Middleton; Charlotte
Brigham, Syracuse.
The steamer, on old sidewheeler,
double-deck craft, which has piled be
tween Ithaca and Cayuga on Lake
Cayuga for 25 years, left the former
place this afternoon for the upper
lake, carrying so passengers and a
crew of 10.
In midlake fire broke out in the en-
CINE room and, famed by a stiff north
east wind, spread quickly to the af
teTward section of the boat. The
crew of - men behaved splendidly
fighting the flames at first, but seeing
that nothing could be saved turned
all their attention to the passengers
Life preservers were put on every
one that could be found in the briei
time, but in spite Of their efforts nine
persisted. Captain Brown directed
the work of the crew and was the las
to leave the burning boat.
In strong contrast to the bravery
of the crew was the panic and in some
instances cowardice of many mel
among the passengers. In trying tC
save themselves they seriously i'm
peded the work of the crew Wher
the flames were first discovered il
midlake Captain Brown turned The
bow of his little steamer toward the
shore and set his crew to work to sub
due the flames if possible and to calm
the passengers and see they got life
preservers.
The flames made rapid Roadway
however, and there was great excite
ment among the passengers as the!
were driven to the bow of the boat
The boat was beached at Farley
point Men from the summer cot
tages did valiant work in rescuini
the passengers and in caring for tn
injured. 1t is not known just how
the women and children were throw
