scene. The first act "The Indians, is
to include "Hiawatha" and "Minne-
haha", with musical numbers taken
from Cadman's popular Indian music;
the second act "The Puritans," will
consist of full chorus of Puritan men
and maidens with songs and dances,
also comedy taken from the Opera
PRISCILLA" the third act will probably
be the charming picture of the even
ing, on account of the natty costumes
therein displayed. The hoop skirt, the
Virginia Reel' and the old time girl
will figure prominently in the fourth
act, while the "up-to-Dates" and "Suf-
fragettes" will be shown in the last
act.

Williams After Race Track Gamblers

One of the reasons why the polti-
clans tried to keep Frank Williams Of
EIiton, from taking his seat in the
Maryland Senate, taking the grounds
that he was a clergyman and could not
serve, came out last week when Mr..
Williams introduced a bill, abolishing
the racing commission for Hartford
County. This commission was formed
two years ago and Governor Goldsbor-
ough claims he was tricked into sign
ing the bill. Mr.. Williams is now try
ing to have it repealed and the fight
will probably be warm one. as even
many of the legislators, who favor
racing will be unwilling to have their
votes recorded on that side of the
fence. Mr.. Williams may not be able
to put the race track people out of
business in Hartford county, but he will
make things so mighty uncomfortable
for them that if he were a real politi-
clan instead of just an editor in poll
tics, he could carry away nice hatful
of money just for keeping quiet.
That's the trouble, though. These edi-
tors never can look at things from the
business like point of view and they
would rather raise the devil any time
than get rich. Anyway, We'll back
