Big Snow.

On Friday and Saturday of last week
the heaviest snow of the winter fell in
this vicinity. According to the weather
report from Mt. St. Mary, College which
appears in this issue, IA inches Of the
beautiful white snow fell in that vicinity
and about the same amount here. We
are glad to state that no wind followed
this snow as did the proceeding one.
Sleighing was very good until Tuesday
when there was rise in temperature,
the wild coming from the south and a
moderate amount of rain falling which
took away much of the snow and has
made travel on the roads very bad.

FORD'S GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

Week January Oath, the distinguished
American actress, Mrs. Fiske, in her
latest dramatic success
SALVATION NELL,
with the famous Manhattan company as
presented during the extended Metropol-
itan run.
An important dramatic event will be
the appearance next "'eek OF Mrs. Flske,
Americas foremost actress, in "Salva-
ton Nell'' which was presented for over
half of last season at the Hackett Thea
ire, New York, and which has been
termed "divine comedy of the slums. y
The author is Edward Sheldon and en-
lists the services of over fifty actors.
Many attempts have been made to
picture upon the stage the multlfarious
life of the slums, but never before, save
by few of the Russian masters, has the
life of the great underworld been tran
scribed with anything like the force ac-
curacy and truth that prevails in "Salva-
ton Nell" Although totally different
from any part in which Mrs. Fiske has
ever appeared, her role in Salvation
Nell' il one of the most congenial she
has ever created, and the audiences have
been unanimous in declaring it to be one
of the most appealing and absorbing parts
in which the famous creator of Tess and
Becky Sharp has appeared. The Man
haitian company supporting Mrs. Fiske
numbers more than fifty members, the
part of Jim Platt is played by Holbrook
Blnn, others in the cast are Winifred
Voorhees,, Gilda Voresi, T. r. Tucker,
w. r. Clarke, Robert Trent, Merle Mad
dorm, Mary Maddorn and others. The
stage settings of the play are extremely
realistic, and are the last word in the
marvellous achievements of modern stage
craft. The tenement street scene of the
last act excels any street scene ever seer
before on the stage.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN

Saturday, the twelfth, marks one
hundred and one years since the
birth of Abraham Lincoln.
'-- Nr. Lincoln was. without exception
: the, most remarkable man America
has produced. His whole history
reads. like a romance. Every age
: has produced men who seemed to
nave been divineIy created to do the
work which they accomplished
These men nave usually come from
humber walks of life, have worked
up from the ranks and, by sheer force
, OF Character, have lifted themselves
above the rest Of mankind. The fact
OF their humble birth is not more re-
markable than the singular tragedy
which usually accompanies their
death. They are born among the
humble, struggle up TO eminence
through the most trying Circumstance
es, and, finally developed in the re-
liners fire, go out like a flash and
leave an immortal name joined with
the, united blessing of the world
Their memories are revered and time
excuses their errors and places their
names in the sacred keeping OF the
gods
lngersoll says the name OF Wash
lngton is fast fading away and nov
he is simply a steel engraving; tina
his name will be forgotten finally
as he was ne>of those who gave hi!
countrymen partial freedom, bu
LINCOLN will be remembered in al
lands where the humble plead for tn,
oetter chance and the cry Of tn
poor is heard beneath the heel of thu
oppressor. Lincoln was distinctivel,
the hero of the common people, in al
his sympathics, the poor, the humble
occupied the first place. He courtec
the favor Of neither the masses no
the classes, his only care being tha
he might do the right as God CAV,
him to see the right.
THE ADVOCATE never loses al
opportunity to keep the memory 0
this great man ever fresh in tn
minds Of its readers. It believes tina
IN proportion as we cXemDlify in on
own lives the patience and long SUI
fering exhibited by Abraham Lincolr
IN the same measure we may hope t
be successful. 1t is, therefore. a req
pleasure to think about Lincoln i
these days when men are seeking t
be popular by doing what they kno
to be wrong, when it is a fad TO deer
men Lincoln thought good enough t
DO free men in @ free land.
1t is also pleasure to know tn;
only those names live in histor
whose owners have really helDe
mankind to a higher life.
