1.-THE GIRL FROM REcToRs"
At Opera House Monday Evening
February ID

The Offering at the opera house
next Monday evening Ill be THE Girl
from Rector's" whose engagement in
this city is limited to one night.
The piece is from the pen OF Paul
M. Potter and it ran for seven con-
secutive months at Weber's Music
hall, New York, breaking all records
for business at that playhouse. Mr.
Potter was also responsible for "Tril-
by THE Queen of the Moulin
Rouge and other international sue
cesses but THE Girl from Rector's"
proved to be the GROWING hit OF his
career The story of the Offering in
brief is this:
Louie Sedaine Is "The Girl from
Rector's' a merry, dancing, dashing
little slip of humanity. She is in
love with Richard O'Shaughnessy. a
young chap Of ample wealth, who, at
the opening of the play has plunged
into dissipation as a result OF the in
fiuence of Col Andrew Tandy, whose
headquarters Is at the famous Broad
way restaurant.
Marcia is engaged to a stupid, ell.
derby cousin Of Richard, college pro-
lessor, but Richard skillfully man.
ages to end that engagement and
bring about his own. Richard HES
himself to Battle Creek and arrange
ments go forward for the marriage
and the scenes shift from East to the
West. The complications begin at
the same time. Mrs. Copley's hus-
band, the general, is thought to be in
Martinique looking after extensive
plantations but he is to return in
time for the wedding.
Gen. Copley turns out to be none
other than Col. Andrew Tandy, who
in that disguise has been making
merry in New York. Mrs. Caperton
one of the leading society women of
Battle Creek and wife of the Judge.
is none other than Louie Sedaine who
has spent her long vacations in the
vicinity of Rector's instead of going
abroad. 1t is through her frequent
visits to the restaurant that she gains
the title "The Girl from Rectors."
The complications that follow keep
the audience in roar of laughter
from the rise Of the first curtain to
the fall Of the last.

Former New York Senator Tells
How He Bribed Colleague

Albany Feb 12.-Senator Benn
Conger told the Senate in detail yes
terday afternoon how Senator Jo-
than p. Aids demanded a $1,000
bride nine years ago, when they
both were members of the Assembly
and how Aids got it.
The voice of Aids accuser was
tense and low, but in the GREATNESS
hush that spread among the audience
1t penetrated to the furthest corner of
the great chamber Slowly but re-
lentlessly, he laid before his col.
leagues a story OF legislative corrup-
ton which even the previous reyela-
lions Of the investigation failed to
parallel.
His story agreed in every point
with that of Hiram G. Moe He told
how he and Moe delivered $4,000 to
three legislators to protect the bridge
interests, Then he fixed his eyes up
on Aids, and concluded as follows.
And Mr.. Aids came out and
passed me saying, I guess it's all
right Conger. It feels good.
Then his attorney asked this ques-
ton. Are any of the persons in
volved in that transaction other than
Mr.. Aids members of the Legislature
nowY' There was a dramatic silence
broken after what seemed minutes by
Conger's voice.
NO he replied And with this
momentous monosyllable the hearing
adjourned.

DESCRIBED KILLING OF LINCOLN
Copies Of New York Herald In Poss-
ession of J. r. Judson

Hon ]. r. Judson Of Arlington has
in his possession two well preserved
copies of the New York Herald pub
lished at one of the most stirring per-
iods in the history Of the United
States. One OF the copies is an ex-
ira edition number published on the
morning of April 10, 1865, few hours
after the assassination of President
Abraham Lincoln in Ford's theatre at
Washington.
A wood engraving portrait of the
martyred president occupied the cen
ter Of the first page and all of the
column rules were reversed as a SYM
Dol of mourning.
The difficulties experienced by the
newspapers in securing the news
from the front during the Civil war
is evidenced by the time that elapsed
between the events chronicled and
the actual happening. The last pro-
clamation of Jefferson Davis, the con-
federate president, is dated April 8,
ten days previous TO the day on
which the paper was published. The
two-column story of the surrender of
General Lee was written on April 10
by the Herald's special correspond
ent, five days before the paper was
printed.
The story of the assassination of
President Lincoln is complete even
to minute details and the descriptions
Of the surrender of General Lee is a
word picture more like a historical
article than newspaper account OF
an important event.
The other copy of the Herald, is
sued on Sunday morning. April 16, is
also marked with the black column
rules. Both the news matter and the
editorial reflect the great loss that
the nation had experienced in the
death of the man who had carried
the nation through the most trying
years of its history Fuller details
of the assassination and the last
hours of Lincoln are given together
with the organization of the new gov
eminent under President Andrew
Johnson.
