given in Topeka this season was
Three Weeks presented at the
Grand Thanksgiving matinee and
night. Miss Jeanne fowler, as the
Lady, though suffering from a severe
attack of la grippe, which made her
work difficult, was able, nevertheless,
to give a delineation of the emotional
character which she played that not
only was pleasing, but which proved
that there are better dramtic posi-
biIities in Three Weeks than here
tofore has been conceded.

Atty. General,
Austin, Texas.
Dear Sir: | will thank you to
give me your opiUion on the fol-
lowing questions:
Can a person who is not y
years of age on or before the 23rd
day of July (the date of the Pri-
mary Election) and who has Sc
cured his certificate of exemp-
ton, vote in the Primary, though
he will not y years of age until
after the primary but will be u
before the General Election?
Does the law referring to ex-
emption certificates apply to any
and all election precincts or does
it apply only to cities of 10000
inhabitants: | will use my coun-
t. for example. In Randall
county, there are, would say,
not to exceed 5000 people, and
at the outside les than 10000 in
the entire county. Will it be
necessary that anyone should
have an exemption:
And further, referring to those
who were not residents of this
county on the first cay of Janu-
AIRY, 1909, but came to the coun-
ty and have resided here con-
tinuously since that date but
paid no poll tax, are they entitled
to vote, barring all other legal
disqualitications:
Yours truly,

Sheriff and Collector.
