THEATRICAL
GRAND OPERA HOUSE

Lew Dockstader is keen observer He
keeps in touch with current topics,
whether they be political, literary, fnan-
cial or scientific. In the various mono-
logues in which Dockstader has appeared
during recent years, he has shown a
genuine appreciation for the quality of
art in his charaeterizations or caricatures
of eminent public men. There is no doubt
if Dockstader had not confined himself TO
minstrelsy. he would have been one of the
best all around comedians on the Ameri-
can stage. He has that peculiar and happy
faculty of showing the apirit of a song in
manner more significant than could be
conveyed by words Dockstaders Minstrels
come to the Opera House Wednesday mat
inee and night.

J. N. Shane Talked with Governor,
That's All.

A report was printed in the Topeka
papers that Gov. Stubs yesterday re-
fused to grant a parole to Capt. ]. B.
Shane. J. N. Shane. who returned
from Topeka today, says there is
nothing to 1t. 81 simply had a talk
with the governor about 1t and ex-
pressed my intention of making no
application at this time, though It
will be done later" Gov. Stubs
promised to give out a correct state
ment of the matter.
Mr.. Shane received this letter
from the Governors secretary:
Topeka, Kan, June 25-Dear. Mr..
Shane: The statement which APP
peared In the Topeka Journal, Thurs
day evening June "a, 1909, and which
was copied In substance by the To-
peka Capital and the Kansas City
Journal this morning, to the effect
that the governor had refused q par
don to James B. Shane is absolutely
any foundation. In fact no
for a pardon had been
presented to the governor, and the
governor had no information that
any documents pertaining to Mr..
5hane's case were on file in this Of
lice. l do not know the foundation
'or the story but presume that some
newspaper reporter learned that an
application for pardon was contem-
plated and from that simple text
'ormed the rest of the story. Yours
respectfully, John s. Dawson, secre-
airy to the governor.

Made a Fine Road.

The Grant township roadmakers
have done a good Job again on the
Enterprise road. From the city linz
its four miles east 1t is like a boule-
yard which is in striking contrast
with the Abilene streets. The De-
troit road which last year was a
rival Of the Enterprise road and was
greatly admired seems to have slump
ed. In many places it is as poorly
drained and as rough as the residence
streets Of town. Abilene could have
as good streets as the Grant township
roads II It would do as was done
during the city campaign when off,
