airy 18th matinee and evening. One
of the players is called upon to in

King Edward VII. at the time when
he was Prince Albert of Wales. Mr..
Alexander F. Frank, formerly leading
man with Mrs. Leslie Garter has had
this difficult task assigned to him by
the producers, and while his character
will be announced on the programme
as the Duke of Colancy, he is expected
to make the audience see Prince
Albert of Wales as he was known to
Americans at the time of the famous
baccaret scandal in London's social

A GLIMPSE OF SMYRNA.
Is Greatest Business Street Is Only
Fifteen Feet Wide.

Let US in Imagination go ashore al
Smyrna from one of the great black
steamships OF the Messageries Mari
times. We land on a noisy. busting
quay alongside of which runs a little
one horse railway. Great ships from
most of the leading ports of the world
are tied up to- the quay by their stems.
On the other side of the broad street.
the only one In Smyrna TO which this
adjective can be applied. are large
warehouses and one or two pretentious
hotels.
Passing through a cross street. we
come TO the great business artery Of
the city. the so called Frank street"
which has doubtless obtained its name
from the fact that so many Franks. a
generic name for foreigners. do busi-
ness on It
This street Is only fifteen feet wide.
and yet IL Is the chief business thor
oughfare OF a city Of a quarter OF a
million inhabitants. Two people
stretching out their arms and touching
hands in the middle could span the
street. and yet through II hurries a con-
slant stream OF foot passengers. dash
ing cabs. stately camels. donkeys and
donkey boys. beasts Of burden and
men OF burden. carrying every conceiv-
able article that people OF the orient
or the occident might want. for this is
one OF the chief cities In the world
where east and west meet on a CON-
mon footing. Christian Herald

MORE LIGHT ON SUGAR LOBBY"
Probers Delve Into Some Private Letter
Files.

Washington, June lS.--The "lobby" in
yestigation by the Senate led yesterday
into the private files of men in charge
of the Washington offices of the United
States beet sugar industry, the leading
instrument of the campaign against free
sugar and originals of letters and tele-
grams and copies of others developed ties
timony of an apparent attempt at a
far-reaching campaign to create public
sentiment against free sugar through the
columns of newspapers and press asso-
Citations.
Many letters were read into the rec
ord from correspondence believed by SEN
,ators to have produced the most SEN
sational evidence yet developed.
The letters came from the files of
Clarence C.. Hamlin, a Colorado Springs
newspaper owner and beet sugar man
and nephew of Senator Clark of Wy
oming.
Hamlin was sent wire by friends
advising that he secure an attorney to
protect himself but replied to Senator
Clark he did not think the letters con
tanned anything he would not disclose.
The Senate committee, fearing inter
ruption, dropped witnesses and rushed
as many letters as possible in the rec
ord.
They referred mostly to placing "stor-
les" with individual papers through pat
ent insides" and efforts to have the As
ISOLATED Press extend the propaganda,
although the latter was reported as re-
siiltng Enthusiastically"
