Some time ago, I'm the coal mines OF

which not only illustrates the insup-
possibility OF Irieh wit, but renders
also an indisputable principle IN the at

working at the bottom Of Ave hun
dred foot shaft. when tremendous ex-
ploslon brought him dying to the top In
cloud of dust and debris. The en-
glneers crowded around him to ascer~
tain tho cause of the explosion. but
Casey's only explanation was; You
can't keep a good man down."
And the biographies Of many Of our
greet men bristle with examples OF
bonds of seeming limitation. At the

his being elected vice-President.

Since the above was written, friends
OF the Mayor" In a newspaper inter-
view, have offered an explanation 10
the effect that Mr.. Bransford had been
deceived, presumably by the manipula
tors OF the party machine. into be-
lleving that there was discord in the
department, and that Captain Bur
bldge was responsible for this Tho
inference Is that the Mayor. having be-
come convinced that the party leaders
had made him the victim OF gross i'm
position, has decided not to demand tho
resignation of the captain.
We can readily believe the charge OF
deception. The entire party move
ment was started by means of mis-
representations and falsehoods, The
leaders of that movement are experts
In such tactics. BY the grossest false

Theatre GOERS
we're PLEASED

The world famous play of OR
Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde" was presented
at the Pavilion theater last evening
to an appreciative audience. The
work of j. Raymond Barrett. who
appeared in the cast as Jekyll and
Hyde, was excellent and the light
ming transformations made kept the
audience guessing and surmising
that there must be two people play
ing the dual part. The changes oc-
cupied less than two seconds and the
respected doctor seemed to grow into
a shriveled up deformed, debased
character before the eyes of the audi
ence. The play was good all the way
through with Just enough comedy
running through it to keep the audi.
ence in good humor.
