The title of I. H. Herk's latest
offering to the burlesque stage is
rather puzzling to the reader until
the show at the Gayety Is seen and
heard, after which it becomes apparent
why this euphonic caption was chos-
on. The entertainment is for the most
part made up of musical turns with
a liberal sprink1ing of comedy and
few specialties. The Morrissey sisters.
Stella and Dolly, are the main at
traction and have most of the songs,
though a few numbers are allotted
to the ingenue and soubrette. Fannie
Albright and Loretta Ahern. The
comedy is intrusted to Max Field.
with Frank Anderson and Harry
O'Neal in straight parts. Morton Beck
and Fred Trust have a song specially
that received quite a little applause.
The chorus is composed of an even
two dozen charming misses who ap-
pear to good>advantage in the sing
ing and dancing ensembles. The
scenery would do credit to a larger
production.

. TO the EditOr;-
In this time Of demand Cor COM
IpulSory Sunday observance, an
ohject-leSSon may be found in the
fact that there aIe in this country
more lhan one ilHndFed thousand
| Christians who observe the SeVen-
iM-daN Sabbath, and heir nunler
IS constantly increasing. They are
scattered throughout every state
IN he Union, and live in the cities
( III the town. and IN the country
districts. The day which they OBJ
serve as The sabbath has become
the busiest day Of the week in the
commercial world, and they are
surrounded by those who are pur-
suing their ordinary work on that
day. When they 80 to their places
.ot worship, their eyes necessarily
behold what they regard as a de
secrati0n of a holy day, and their
ears are Saluted with the hum of
secular industry. They would be
glad to have all observe the Sab
bath "according to The command
ment" and thus honor the Creator
but they never have asked, and
never will ask, for legislative
enactmentS which would compel
others to pay an oulwOrd regard
to this day; all must be fully CON
WINGED by their own conSrienceS
that they ought to keep it holy.
These observers of the seventh
day simply ask to be left free to
observe the day of their choice
without being fined either direct
~ or indirectly,-without being
compelled to pay afine in money
into the state treasury or to pay
fine in the way of loss time by en-
forced idleneSs upon a day which
the Scriptures designate as a work
ing day,-and they freely concede
to others the civil right to work
on the seventh day of the week
and to rest on another day if they
choose to do so, or to refuse to
observe any day as the Sabbath.
Now if such a body of Christian
observers of the seventh day of
the week can be developed in this
country by the power of con-
Scientious conviction alone, in
The face of all those circumstances
which the advocates of Sunday
observance regard as so fatal to
heir cause, is it not apparent that
40 Christian institution needs the
support of the civil power? We
commend this object-leSson to the
of those who are
claiming that what they designate
IS "the Christian Sabbath" will
perish from the earth unless they
an secure the passage of laws to
Orotect and preserve it.
Very sincerely yours,
CHAS. A. LANTZ.
