AMUSEM ENTS.
The White SouaW."

Last night 1.-THE White Squaw,'
Western play, was produced by the
Elmer Stock Co at the Opera house.
Wilbert Chambers in the part OF
Frank Saunders. cowboy, was pleas
ing and Nella Robinson in the double
part of Louise Benton. the Captains
daughter and Prairie Flower, Running
Elk's daughter, did her part we'll. The
two lawyers in the cast. II. II. Power
and l.. Broughton. gave the audience
an opportunity to laugh.
The plot of the play was rather
rambling in character. although it was
not devoid of considerable interest.
| There was a large amount of powder
burned throughout the four acts and
| several of the characters came to an
| untimely end through the medium Of
| the knife, but like nearly all plays Of
| this class the ending in the shack on
| the mountain side was happy and the
| few survivors that were fortuna e
enough to escape death during the ac-
| ton of the piece had a chance to live
happy ever after.
The various specialties were good, as
usual, and kept the audience in good
humor while waiting for changes of
scenery.
| A Teddy bear contest is announced
| for Saturday and the offer made by
the management that they would hold
wedding on the stage Friday night
providing some couple would consent
| to be married. was repeated. The man
agement offers to furnish carriages,
wedding ring and SO gold piece as
wedding present for the happy
couple, the only stipulation being that
the couple furnish a clergyman or
justice Of the peace to tie the knot.
| An interesting bill is announced for
tonight.

ANNABLE MARTIN.
Supposed to Be Buried at Anderson
vile, Dies at Lewiston, Wednesday.

The death Of Amable Martin occurred
yesterday at the Sisters hospital where
he was taken five days ago. Mr.. Mar
tin who was rs years OF age lived alone
in Minot when he was taken sick. He
failed rapidly until his death. He had
no relatives hereabouts but at the hos
pital told one of the Sisters that te
had three sons and q daughter, and
that one of his sons lived in California.
He served in Company C, 18th Maine
in the Civil War.
The above notice, which was printed
in the Lewiston Sun Thursday morn
ing when seen by Capt. Thomas Clark.
clerk in the office of the adjutant gen.
eral at the State House, brought back
memories Of the Civil War. The 18th
Maine Infantry was Capt. Clark's Did
regiment, and the notice of the death
of Mr. Martin was somewhat Of sur
prise to him, inasmuch as the records
in the office of the adiutant general
state that the man died in Anderson
vile prison, Va.
Capt. Clark knew the man Martin
well, and remembers perfectly the de-
tails of his capture before being sent
to Andersonville. Martin was a men,
Der of Co. G. but his name was An
nahle and not Amable, as stated in the
above paragraph. There was another
member Of the same company named
George Pe6luette. who enlisted with
Martin. both being French Canadians,
and the latter was captured at the
same time.
The men were captured on the night
of June IS, 1864. The regiment at that
time was at Bermuda Hundred, Va
Both We're on picket duty on the south
side Of the James river, Just below a
placed called Derry bluff. and on the
night IL question Capt. Clark was Of
ficer of the guard. Martin and Pea
quette were both rather raw in the art
of warfare and the Confederates had
but little trouble in stealing up and
| taking them prisoners.
| After their capture they We're taken
| to Andersonville prison, and according
| to the records Martin died there, bu!
if the man who died at Lewiston
Wednesday and the one mentioned III
the history OF the 18th Maine Regi.
ment are one and the same and they
| seem to be. it is probable that there
| was q mistake made in the records.

Bankers In
a New Role.

Governor BrOward, who will not be
suspected of any alliance with the
money kings or the corporate octopus,
has appointed MIR. Milton, Mariana
banker, as United States senator to
succeed the late Senator Bryan, and
the appointment was one so eminently
fit TO be made that every faction OF
Florida democracy and all classes of
the people, regardless of party or sec
ton, have approved it
Up in Alabama a democratic pri-
mary elected Joseph F. Johnston, a
wealthy banker, United States sena-
tor, to succeed the late Senator Pettus.
and Senator Johnston has conspicu-
o,lsly justified his election by prompt
iy going right into the front rank OF
senatorial e. JeGts in the intricate
currency problem which the senate
has been debating for many weeks
past.
And so the logic of events quietly
and contemptuously sets aside the
rubbish and false teachings of dema-
gogues and calamity shriekers and
puts southern bankers to the very
forefront to help make the laws OF
this country. 1t has not been SO long
ago since the banker was almost an
outeast from our politics because he
was supposed to stand for the cor
morant policy ready to devour the
dear people and all their earnings
without conscience or mercy, at the
bidding OF the money power of which
he was a part-but we know better
now There are bankers and bank
ers, and the true banker, by the very
nature of his calling and the vital in
terests he mas at stake, is one of the
most enlightened and conservative
forces of modern society, sensitive
above all others to radical changes
that might dmperil the general pros
perity, and always quick to throw his
snfiuence against such changes.
But the logic of events settles most
OF our problems in this world, any
WY, and with Johnston of Alabama,
and Milton of Florida. in the senate,
holding commissions from the demo-
cratic party. we have put the country
on notice that Vardaman of Missis-
sippi and Jeffries Davis OF Arkansas
are not the best Representatives Of
our Craftsmanship, and we don't be-
lieve everything that demagogues tell
us.
