 In the farthest west Olga Neither
 sole has been defending her "Sapho.
 Why should they look upon 1t in that way?" she says. There is more
 goodness than badness in the world.
 and no matter what woman is, it is possible for the good to predominate,
 which it does in 'Sapho,' and that is 'Sapho's' message to the world. What I cannot understand is why they make such fuss over this, when half of the musical comedies that are staged make light of the sacred or awful things of life. Infidelity and drunkenness and dishonor are all laughed at and made light of, yet I have been dragged through the courts and wounded to the quick with the indignity and the injustice of 1t all. But am glad to say that 1t has left no scar. I am healthy. My skin Is healthy. My mind is healthy, and there is nothing left but painful memory of it"

 Henrietta CrOsman, recognized alike by critics and public as the greatest now playing on the Eng fish speaking stage, will appear at Polls theater Friday March 18th, when she will present her latest dis tinct success, "All-of-a-Sudden Peg BY" She has just ended her New York run in this country, adding new triumph to her brilliant list and scoring one of the most distinct hits of the season. No actress merits a more appreciative welcome than Miss | Crosman who is held in highest es- teem for the delight she always gives. She will be the more enthusiastically | received now because she is to pre- sent a play everybody will wish to zee. Her fame as the greatest of modern comediennes is known to all !, who keep informed on matters theat- 'ical, for her triumph in Sweet Kit y Bellaires," Mistress Nell" "As You Like It" and other comedies are achievements of the Ameri- 'an stage. Now she is coming here n play which was not only one of he hits of the season in New York, ut was one of the popular successes n London last year. "All-of-a-Sud- len Peggy" had a notably long run t the Duke of York's theater. It is trikingly bright and witty with an bundance of humor, merry compli- ations and amusing characters. The ole of Peggy O'Mara is the most en- Miss Crosman has ever ortrayed.

G. T. Wyatt was nominated as the
Democratic candidate for the State
Senate in the districts composed of
Todd, Simpson and Logan counties,
at a district convention in South
Union. Simpson county was not
represented. c. C. Pare was a can
didate and the nomination of Wyatt
seems to have been in defiance of
party authority. The committee
.rescinded the first call and was pre-
pairing to order a different settle
ment of the contest that had devel-
oped but two counties refused tC
accept the change.
Hopkinsville Kentuckian., 1907-07-09

When Judge Henry B. Hines was
selected to act as chairman of the
State Campaign Committee a splen-
did days work for Democracy was
performed. In no political contest
where he has engaged has he ever
failed to secure every vote possible
and this year will prove no excep-
ton. One secret of the success
which has attended Judge Hines is
the fact that he is as true to his
friends as is the proverbial needle to
the pole, and poss sessing unbounded
energy he begins a fight from the
start and never relaxes his efforts.
With splendid ticket to aid him he
will win a great victory this fall and
demonstrate Executive management
to which limited few can lay claim.

HUNTER is
NOT HUNTING
For the $40 Stolen From Him
Saturday Night.
TAKING 1T QUITE EASILY
Thief Considerably Left His
Trousers In Hurry.
TAKING 1T QUITE EASILY

1t may be that Tom Hunter, oneof
the statesmen at Frankel's, will have
to spend his vacation in the city.
He is minus his little nest egg of S20,N
which would have gone a long way
toward helping Tom have fine time
at Salubria, Cerulean, Dawson, or
.ssme other summer resort,
Hunter boards ct Mrs. Mrs Walls Wall s, oop
posite the /. c. station. Saturday
night, after having done a days
hard work, his time at the store run
ming up to a late hour of the night,
he went to his room.
Like all tired young fellows, Tom
had hardly hit the bed before he
was clasped in the arms Of Morphea
us and carried far away into dream
land. When he awoke Sunday
morning and began to dress he ss-
covered that while he was in dream
land a thief had paid him a ''profes-
sional call" The thief did not leave
his card, and so Tom is all at sea
as to who the midnight visitor was.
The thief had rifflled Toms trous-
er pockets and appropriated the $40
hard-earDed money. The wonder is
that he didn't take the pants, too.
Hunter is taking his loss as coolly as
possible during this tOrrid weather
and has quite a philosophic air, but
he will make 10 effort to run down
the thief on account of the heat, and
he does not want to impose on the
good nature of a too willing police
force. He has just given his money
up as "a goner," and will hereafter
sleep with one eye open, stay out of
dream-land or put his money where
thieves do not prowl at night.
