"HUMAN HEARTS.

The story of Human Hearts, that
beautiful poetical play of the m
pie life of the homely folk OF rural
Arkansas, deals with the happen
ings to honest Tom Logan. the viii
lage blacksmith. Tom dwells with
his parents In a picture que spot of
the Arkansas hills. There he has
been pursuing his vocation, living
a plain simple life, the mainstay of
his aged parents; beloved by all who
know him, and respected above his
fellows. On certain unlucky day,
there came to the village a beauti-
full woman, temptre3s, unprincl-
pied and black at heart, but with a
fascination that proved to be the
undo!ng of poor Tom Logan He
Immediately proceeded to fall in
love with her, asked her to marry
him, and she became his wife. Hap
py In his fancied security, Tom Law
ished all the affection on the wo-
man that was poss BILE to an honset
heart like his, but it was not re-
turned.
One day there appears on the
scene a william, the former lover
of the woman, who commits a cow
ardly murder, and with the assist
ance of the woman, fastens the
crime on Tom, who is tried and
convicted for the crime of another.
Tom is sentenced to states prison
for life, and the villainous pa r
congratulate themselves that they
have not only gotten rid of h m,
but have secured immunity from
the law for themselves. But Prov
dence has been watching over the
hlacksmith, and unseen influences
are at work to thwart their plan.
Humble friends of Tom do not for
get him and their endeavors 70
bring the case to the notice Of the
governor of Arkansas are finally
successful. The villains are un-
unmasked and Tom is proved limo
cent.
The play is a pathetic one with
many thrilling scenes. but there is
strong comedy vein rum ng thru
it which gives the necessary con-
trast.
Manager Vaudeville has provided
most adequate stage investure for
the play, and has engaged an admit
rable company for It's portrayal.
Human Hearts will play an en-
gagement of one night at the Elks
theatre on Friday, September IS.

REGISTRATION

To all who wish to vote:
We call attention TO the follow
ing important points in connect on
with the new registration law:
1. A registration officer has been
appointed by the county court for
each election precinct, whose duty Il
Is to register each qualified voter
OF his precinct who appears before
him and proves his right to be en-
rolled.
2. These registration officers
close their books on OCTOBER LIST.
They sit again on OCTOBER 10th
for ONE DAY ONLY, to revise their
lists and accept additional registra-
tions, and nthat date their work
is FINALLY COMPLETED.
3. III you are not then registered,
you can only get your name on the
registration book by appearing be-
fore the county court in PRINCE
TON on October 26th.
A. If your name does not appear
on the registration book on election
day, YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOW
ED TO VOTE. YOU CANNOT
SWEAR IN YOUR VOTE ON ELEC-
TON DAY. as has formerly been
possible.
REMEMBER
1. 1T IS YOUR DUTY TO SEE
that you are registered, and NOT
THAT OF THE REGISTRATION
OFFICER.
2. That the fact that you have
paid your poll tax to the assessor
DOES NOT entitle you to vote
UNLESS YOU ARE REGISTERED.

WANT TO DISFRANCHISE YOUR
SELF, you must see that your name
is on the registration list.

prevent you from registering If you
