A PLAY in A THOUSAND.
Quincy Adams Sawyer,' Unique
Drama Of Most Telling Qualities.

Drama Of Most Telling Qualities.
The figures Of the attendance and re.
ceipts for the last five seasons that
Quincy Adams Sawyer" has been upon
the stage prove that nearly three mill
lion people have witnessed this great
drama of Now England rural life in
that time. In view Of this fact and
because Of the constantly growing pros
perity Of this attraction, it can be said
with truth that this il d play in a
thousand" For there have been so
few similar instances in the history Of
the American stage that they can be
recalled readily by all theatrical men
of experience.
Quincy Adams Sawyer" is unique.
It's telling qualities are found in its
entire freedom from stage converse
tions, There IL no erring girl, no mort
gage on the farm, no mourning or wall
ing and no VILLAIN. Yet stregth is by
ment of familiar stage expedients. For
there are substituted characters that
are real, motives that are natural and
development of interest that holds
because 1t appeals by it's strong hui
manity.
When the famous rural drama il
presented at The opera house ON next
Saturday it will be found to be pre-
scented by an admirable company, every
member of which has been selected
with special regard for his or her fitness
for the role played. The scenic environ
ments of the drama is in perfect accord
with it's spirit and the entire entertain
mtnt is natural and enjoyable. Tickets

HIS MISTAKE.
Why Lawyer Banssn Ceased TO be q
kidder.


Bunsen was always great kidder.
He isn't any more.
Bunsen Is lawyer, although, Of
course he is known by a different name.
Don't ever get the idea, though, that
this didn't really happen just because
Bunsen's real name isn't mentioned.
Well, rs we were saying, Bunsen
used to be pretty much of a kidder
He would even kid his own patient
little wife Those who care TO read on
down little farther win learn why he
ceased to be a kidder.
One evening last week when Bunsen
got home bis wife had new hat to
show him. 1t wis some hat. Any
body could have seen that 1t was the
f1nal phrase In female headgear.
But Bunsen started in TO make fun of
it He said 1t looked as II it had been
trimmed by cross eyed milliner on an
empty stomach. And he made lot OF
other disparaging remarks that were
extremely harassing to poor Mrs. Bun
sen, "D'je buy 1t sight unseenf' he
inquired, Say, how much do they
pay the girl that sold you that? She
ought to have raise. Any girl who
could put that one over customer
must be something Of a smooth sales
lady. I'm here to remark"
Mrs. Bunsen was almost in tears.
Buusen had to go into the other room
to have quiet laugh at her expense.
oh, he was the great kldder, all right!
The next day, though, he had for
gotten all about the hat.
The day after that he was reminded
OF his little iokefest. Mrs. Bunsen
handed him slip Of paper when he
came home to get his victuals that
evening, 1t WINS bill for retrimming
that hat S1S.34 1t came to.
Bunsen paid 1t without a murmur
and said the revised edition of the hat
was just exactly right He isn't max
Ing fun of hats any more.--Clevelan

NEW HAMpSnlREs CONTEST.

The student Of politics Is having a
splendid object lesson in the brazen eff
front9y of it in New Hampshire just
now Two men, Rosecrans w. Pillsburv
and Henry W. Quinby, who were eandi-
dates for governor before the Republican
primaries of the state last Tuesday
night, are both to-day claiming that they
will be nominated on the first ballot at
the Forthcoming state convention; while
a third candidate, Ellis, had the hardi-
hood to stand up the day following the
primaries and assert that he led in the
number of delegates elected. We had an
illustration Of the same thing in Yer
mont recently, when supporters of Stan
ton and Prouty smugly announced that
their candidates had majority of the
Republican state convention already in
nand and that each would secure the
nomination on the first ballot. IL is the
old, old story of the political game which
is slyly played by the expert politician
even to the last ditch. Keep up appear
ances is the motto, until the last hand
is play The game serves to mold falter-
ing supporters in line as the rallying cry
Of the battlefield serves TO enliven the
dropping spirits Of the contestants.
AS for the public, it is certainly be.
wildered by the counter claims of the
candidates in New Hampshire. II may
