cure the daughter of an old Scotch
settler. The latter, McTavish by
name, hates his daughter, Hilda, be-
cause he believes her mother was un->
true to him. He welcomes the sug-
gestion that Macdonald. the engi-
neer, take the, girl away to Newt
york, where she will be cared for by
McDonalds mother. But in the way
fthis scheme is Jules Beaubien.
Years before the play begins Beau
bien's half sister, Annette, was be-
trayed by a man. BY chain of cir
cumstances, Beaubien discovers that
Macdonald is the mon who did the
Hilda, who returns his love. She VIC
lently refuses to- go with Macdonald
despite her afther's commands. Beau
bien denounces Macdonald as the be-
trayer OF his sister. :Beaubien elopes
with the girl but is overtaken by
Macdonald in a gloomy but pictur-
esque glen. Macdonald creeping down
the narrow path fires on his adver-
sary, who falls and pretends to have
been killed. Then follows one of the
most realistic duels ever seen on the
stage. Andrew Robson is cast for the
handsome half-breed, Jules, and is
said to play the role, which demands
an exhibition of honest n1anliness1tc
perfection.

SOCIAL. WEAKNESSES,

There is something radically wrong
with the attitude Of public sentiment
towards the command thou shalt not

If an unfortunate individual of the
degenerate type ,appropriates the

and 'brainless methods, and society
catches him at it, he is punished by
incarceration for a term Of years at
hard labor in prison or penitentiary.

|clever and brainy business man, con-
spires with others to steal and in

ICES fake companies, say a copper

Duluth is: rife with discussion and
debate. Churchmen, laymen and
psychologists of religion are spending
much time and considerable gray

outcome of this ethical controversy
with an unusual interest. The cause
of all this upheavel among the literati
finds expression in: new play which
will be the attraction at the: :Lyceum
on next Tuesday and Wednesday,

theme is found: to be a question of
Standardization to the church on
one hand and devotion to a;Hlover on
the other. The innocent play in ques-
ton is ''The White Sister, written
by that famous novelist, IF. \: Marion
Crawford, and Walter Hackett,,: play
ed in by Miss Viola Allen and her
most capable company; and produced
by Messrs. Liebler5 & Company. Food

luth. >~ ~'
The Los Angeles Citizen very truly
observes, that everywhere many of the
men most prominent in society at
tanned their prominence by means ~
schemes to defraud their neighbors.
They got their possessions as dis
honestly as any burglar, thief or high
wayman, only the methods were not
quite so raw and unrefined.
The big stockholder freezes out the
little one. The merchant misrepres-
ents his goods: The real estate dealer
cheats the eye out of the buyer. The
lawyer lies professionally and pro-
foundry. The doctor mutilates and
murders the patient and strips him Of
his last cent. The Judge dispenses
injustice. The minister does not de
clare the whole counsel of God" All
these omissions and commissions are
crimes. But the culprits are not cen
sured. It's social weakness.
Graham Hood has this to say along
the same line.
Society has been guilty Of many
crimes. since the dawn Of civilization.

horribly unjust, as it's present system
of underpaying it's laborers. II a man
Gevotes his time to the performance
Of duties that have been assigned to
him by another, he is entitled to just
compensation, and if he does not re-
ceive this he is robbed.
Moreover, in such cases the effect
of this robbery is felt both more wide
ly and more seriously than any or
binary kind Of thieving-that which
is committed at the point of pistol,
etc.-for it is not the mans time alone
that is robbed nor the mans time
alone that is stolen. The thing that is
actually taken is the means to provide
for and educate his family property,
that the children for whom he is re-
sponsible may live to be good, strong

At the Lyceum Tuesday and Wednesday evenings

on the battlefield, swears herself to
the church and takes the irrevocable
vows of a. cloistered nun. It de-
velops, however, that the young cap
tain has not been killed, as reported,
and at the close of the first act we
see the nun and her soldier-lover
brought face to face in the court of
the convent. From this situation the
struggle between the church and the
man furnishes rich material for the
dramatists, and the question Of an
ethical solution to the problem will
occupy remarkable attention.

LABOR: AND PROHIBITION.

few days ago we overheard one of
those ultra prohibitionists, whose I'M
fairness towards labor is only equalled
by his fanaticisn, make this state
nent: II cannot understand the at
titude Of certain laboring men Of in
telligence towards the liquor question.
No class has suffered so much from
the evil effects Of liquor as the labor
ing Glass;
The reason for certain laboring
mems attitude on this question is not
difficult to discover, to one who will
bring to the investigation a mind and
heart unfettered by prejudice.
First Of all, labor denies that it .suf-
fers even as much as any other class
Of society from. the so-called drink
evil. Some working men occasionally
imbibe too much, and few become
habituals, it is true; but consider the
hundreds of thousands of workmen
who neither touch, taste nor handle
the stuff.
Labor feels and knows that what
ever intemperance society suffers from
lies deeper than those who favor pro-
hibition are willing to acknowledge.
Prohibitionists would deal merely with
the effect. Labor would remove the
cause of intemperance. What is the
cause Of intemperance, you ask? The
chief cause is the unjust condition of
affairs in our modern Industrial and
commercial life, and which the gentle
man to whom we refer is doing his
dead level best to perpetuate.
AS long as men, women and child
rem are compelled to work long dreary
hours every day in the week with
brief respite on Sunday, for a bare
living, something will be needed as
stimulant.
Who can estimate the number Of
victims Of that terrible scourge, tuber-
culosis, whose deaths can be traced to
long hours of labor and unsanitary
surroundings?
How many millions Of little children
of both sexes are there in this coun.
try performing the tasks of adults in
factories, mills and mines?
Would it not be far better for those
who would make men and women
more temperate to take cognizance of
these really great evils than to en-
deavor to enact laws that cannot but
| make hypocrites of ordinarily honest
folk?
In the scheme of human government
man may make laws which forbid.
and he may be punished If he breaks
those laws, but to remove temptation
by laws or to make men good by law
is an assumption of authority as IN
justified by reason as it is useless in
practice.
j." Labor is opposed to prohibition be-
ceause labor believes in real temner-
ance, and real temperance can come
only through an honest desire of the
individual to be temperate in all
things.
