Printzess Fashion Show
Was A Success.

The value of newspaper adver-
Using was demonstrated Friday
in the large crowd that attended
the Empire Stores fashion show
at the Grand Opera House.
The event had been heralded
several weeks previous to it's &C.
currence in the columns of the
Leader Enterprise. with the very
gratifying result that it was i'm
possible to seat the throng of in
terested parties who visited the
show Friday night. Several
large crowds were turned away
until more room could be made
by the dispensing of those inside
who had seen the complete show.
The Empire gave away 1,60O
tickets to the performance and
there is no doubt that every one
of them was used.
The Printzess Fashion show
was a novel event and was en-.
joyed to the utmost by all,
Especially the ladies', who at
tended. and thebeautiful pictures
portrayed on the curtain no doubt
made a lasting impression on the
feminine spectators who as a re-
suit are thoroughly familiar with
the good qualities contained in
Printzess suits.

A Costly Production.

Miss Eugenia Flagg, who is
the Portia of the Edouard D'Oize
production of THE Merchant of
Venice" is an actress of excep.
tional ability. Her youth; beauty
and rare comprehension of Portia
combine to make her share the
honors of the flesh demanding
Jew a matter of common accep-
lance wherever the play has been
produced this season. 1t is not
always the good fortune of a star
Of MIR. D'Oize's exceptional abili-
ty to be so admirably supported.
Not only is Miss Flagg well
placed, but the entire cast as
we'll. The occasion of the one
evenings engagement at the
Grand Theatre on Monday Oct.
9th, should fill the theatre. The
play is far b yond the common
performances of The Merch-
ant" it being a production such
as is seldom seen outside of cities
of great size. Every vestige of
scenery and equipment is carried,
the house drop" being the only
bit of drapery that will give local
color" all else comes with the
production. Mr.. D'Oize says:
Il bring the atmosphere of Ven
ice to your theatre and my play
ers furnish the action superbly
in accordance with true tradi-
ton"

Waupuns. Wis, March 1S.-Edward
Eckart, of Pennsylvania. was today
paroled from the wisconsin peniten-
tiary after thirty-seven years of actual
,, time served behind the bars. He was
convicted Of murder when II years old.
Eckart's victim was Charles Peter
SOL. also of Pennsylvania. The two
were tramping in Wisconsin during
the excessively cold weather of 1875.
In a quarrel over a fire started beside
the railroad track near Jefferson, Pc
terson was killed and Eckart was SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment. He never
has admitted the crime, maitaining
that Peterson was killed by tramp.
A Model Prisoner.
In thirty-seven years never a mark
Of demerit has been placed against
Eckart. Wardens favored the paroling
Of Eckart. who can not leave Wiscon-
son. and his conduct must be exem- :
plary.
In the third of a century OF impris-
onment his kin have deserted him and
he does not know the whereabouts OF
his wife and daughter. Prior to his iih-
prisonment Eckart saw much OF the
world. sailing the seas and working IN
the diamond fields of South Africa
The judge who sentenced him and the
district attorney who prosecuted, ara
dead. and only three Of the jury men
are living.
Eckart never lost hope. Without
money he managed to bring his case
before the state supreme court. and
the circuit court of appeals of the
United States, but he was thWarted.
In a desperate last hope he appealed
to a Milwaukee newspaper man. who
was instrumental in obtaining his con-
ditional release.

Hope to Axert Strike.

Chicago, March 1S.-While 1t is
known that switchmen and switch
tenders of nineteen railroads entering
Chicago have voted authorization to
their leaders to call q strike If their
demands are not met, the formal result
of the mail vote will not be announced
until late this afternoon, after the Of
ficial count has been mdae.
The men. numbering about 5000. ask
for shorter hours and time and half
for overtime: The employers do not
expect strike. despite the vote as
probably mediation under the Erdman
act will be sought.
Such ar appeal, it is said. would clear
a question whether the Erdman act
was not wiped out by the law WHICH
created the department OF labor.

Chicago, March 1s.-Whether or not
5000 switchmen employed by nineteen
railroads entering Chicago Will go out
on strike tonight depends on the re-
suit of the vote Of the men. which is
being solicited by a committee repre-
senting the Brotherhood Of Locomotive
Trainmen. A. F. Whitney, vice presi-
dent of that organization, said that the
indications were the strike would be
called. Many Of the ballots already
are in and the count will be completed
tonight.
Negotiations between officials OF
the railroads and the committee repre-
senting the Brotherhood Of Locomo-
tive Trainmen were called off last Fri
day. The point on which the disagree
ment is said to have arisen is the re-
fusal on the part of the railroad COM
panies to meet the demands of the
switchmen for time and half for
overtime and for Sundays and holi-
days.
