Our Coming Lyceum Course.

in town the size of La Jara, and
having been made acquainted with
the fact that such course is going
to be put on here this coming win
ter, | take this means of express
ing myself on this subject.
In the first place, the only pos
sible show of having anything in
the way of amusement that is
worth spending your money to see
and hear, in town the size of La
.Jara, is to secure the talent that is
available through the lyceum Any
effort that may be put forth to Sc
cure such attractions should have
the unreserved support of the peo-
pile who have the welfare of La
lara at heart. This is true of any
lyceum course that might be at
tempted. but it is specially true of
the one which is now before the
people of the town.
This course is under the aus
pices of the two ladies auxiliary
lodges of the Woodmen, and con-
sists of the following numbers:
The La Dell-Fox Concert Com
pany, the Midland Jubilee Singers,
and the Otterbein Male Quartet
and Bell Ringers. 1t has been the
lot of the writer to manage several
courses of lyceum talent in Calf
ornia and Texas, and during that
time, to enjoy the extreme pleasure
of hearing the Midland Jubilee
Singers and the La Dell-Fox Com
pany, in fact, of presenting them
to the public.
| have no hesitancy in saying
that out of over fifty attractions
that |, myself, have presented, l
would give more to See and hear
the La Dell Fox Concert Company.
than / would to hear any other
company that | have presented
Miss La Dell is acknowledged by
the best critics to be the foremost
child impersonator in the Domin-
ion of Canada. So natural are her
impersonations that you could en-
close her where the audience could
not see her. and they would vouch
that they had heard children in
conversation. She is a finished
artist in both comic and serious
and wherever she goes, she is
wanted back. On the other hand,
Mr.. Fox is the foremost violinist
of Canada and he will make that
instrument talk to you as you never
have heard it before unless you
have heard some of the masters.
Next to Musin, Kubelik and few
others. Mr. Fox is the best artist
that | have ever heard. Miss Craw-
ford's voice is wonderfully sweet
and full and you will encore her
again and again. | would readily
pay twice the price the ladies' are
asking you for the season ticket to
hear this one number again La
Jara will be very foolish indeed if
it does not avail itself of this
opportunity.
The Midland Jubilee Singers
are one Of the best aggregations of
singers, who give the genuine
southern melodies as the darkies
used to sing them before the war,
now before the lyceum public. |
have never found an attraction that
pleased the general public better
than bunch of jubilee singers.
The feature of these people is that
they combine genuinely good sing
ing, such as everyone enjoys, with
the fun of the minstrel show.
Their end men are good and at the
same time that you laugh, you will
realize that the entertainment is
cultured one; none of the stale.

the minstrel show, yet you laugh

TiIIman's Share of Navy Steal.

Senator Tillman of South Carolina
went on the senate committee of naval
affairs in 1895. On March 1, 1899, he
arose and said very candidly concern
ing the naval appropriation bill:
This bill is loaded down with ex-
pansion N every navy yard. / am try
ing to get little for Port Royal; be-
cause, if yeu are going to steal, want
my share
Mr.. Tillman is q forceful and ag
gressive man. he has been for years
a fellow member with Mr. Hale on
both the naval and appropriations
committees. He received his plant for
a first class navy yard, in spite of the
reluctant report Of the board Of naval
experts considering the matter. that
neither Port Royal nor Charleston
could be made a first class naval sta
ton. The plant of a first class navy
yard according to present American
standards) is now nearly finished at
Charleston. 1t has cost up to date
some $4,000, 1000. The department
realizing the futility of trying to use
it for the purpose for which 1t was
designed, has now turned it into d
station for torpedo boats. 1t contains
a drydock intended to take in the
largest battleships. A machine shop,
costing nearly $500, 0oO-perhaps the
handsomest in the navy-has been
turned into a storehouse. without ever
being used for the purpose it was built

What It Costs a Congressman.

In reply to some critics who censur-
ed him for Voting to increase the sal
airy of congressman to $500 a year,
Representative Charles F. Scott prints
this in his lola (Kan.) Record):
1T required but a brief experience
as a member of congress to demon
strate to me that no man could,holu
that position and. meet his expenses
on IS, 600 a year. 7 think / will be ac-
quilted by those who know me of not
having any expensive habits or living
in an eXtraVagdnt fashion, but yet my
actual living expenses, not including
the cost of campaigns either for the
nomination or for the election, have
exceeded $4,000 each year since / have
been member of congress. With the
salary at its old figure l should have
been obliged to retire at the end of my
first term il my other business had not
fortunately been making a little
money. An income of $500 year
looks large, and it would be large to
anyone il private life. But it dwindles
rapidly when it is put up against the
expenses necessarily incident to hold
ing an important public office. A mem
Der of congress, if he responds to the
demands upon him, necessarily travels
a great deal and railroad passes are
a thing of the past. He necessarily
stops at the best hotels. He necessa-
rily wears good clothes. If he lives
with his family, as civilized man
ought to. he necessarily maintains two
houses, one in his home town and one
in Washington. The very modest
house which 1 occupy here, although
nearly four miles from the capitol,
rents uIfurnished for So month,
which must be paid the year round,
whether we are here or not. The cost
of everything is enormously nigh"
