THE EMORY-THOMPSON TRAGEDY. Never in the history of Seattle was, "let the law take its course," put to a severer test than when hundreds of persons stood and watched the officers of the law cart Chester Thompson off to jail last Saturday night for the shooting down of George Mead Emory, a prominent Seattle attorney and a former judge of the superior court of this county, without warning or provocation. In this age of mobocracy it is almost a miracle, owing to the prominence as well as the general good standing of Judge Emory in the community, that his slayer was not hung as high as Haman by the excited throng, for it realized from the very outset that he was wounded unto death. While we do not intend to preach you a sermon, yet we cannot forego the opportunity to caution the citizens of this country against the growing spirit of mobocracy. Had Chester Thompson been a Negro it would have been madness for any one to have tried to have reasoned with those present as well as others to "let the law take its course." In other words the crimes committed by Negroes are more heinous than the same crime committed by Caucasians. That Chester Thompson, who by the way is the son of Will H. Thompson, the well known attorney and silver-tongued orator, was as mad as a March hare when he shot Judge Emory seems almost an absolute certainty, which, if true, should save his neck from the gallows, but consign him to a life of imprisonment beyond even the pardoning power. When the life of so good and eminent a man as that of Judge Emory is sacrificed by even a maniac such a maniac should be so completely removed from society as to never again have an opportunity to endanger human life. The seeds of mobocracy so common to this country were first sown by sensational newspapers with flaming headlines and the anarchistic rag of this city known as the Daily Times is a fair sample of such incendiary and riotous papers. With VENGEANCE in great red letters across the front of the paper demanding Chester Thompson's blood was what the Times dished up to its readers last Monday evening. Such publications are a menace to the peace and dignity of any community and it plants the seed of mobocracy that sooner or later ripen into SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, JULY 13, 1906. violence in its most vicious form. If Chester Thompson was temporarily crazy or insane when he committed the awful act then he in no wise deserves death. Nor is it right for a newspaper to try, convict and pass judgment on him all within its columns in order to intimidate a jury into declaring him perfectly sane, contrary to the facts. Two wrongs never made one wright, and therefore the mental condition of the man at the time of shooting Judge Emory should be carefully looked into and if found unbalance at the time then life imprisonment and not death should be his portion. Emma Goldman could not have shown a greater desire to wreak bloody vengeance on those she opposes than the Times did against Chester Thompson in its demand for vengeance. William D. Haywood, who now languishes in a prison cell in Idaho charged with having committed murder, has been nominated for governor of Colorado by the Socialist party. Such actions neither help Haywood nor the party. If the Socialists have not a man capable of being governor, should he be elected, and he will not, without nominating a man accused of heinous crime, whether guilty or not, then the party had better disband. Such actions only brand the Socialist party as being made up of criminals or suspected criminals and however just their cause may be no lawabiding citizen wants to be governed by a man accused of having committed the most diabolical crime in the anals of criminology. Notwithstanding the shortage of water in the city there are hundreds and hundreds of persons supposedly lawabiding citizens, who sprinkle out of hours, when by doing so they are well aware of the fact that they are depriving some one else of not only water for sprinkling, but for domestic purposes. Such is the way of the human hog. It has cost Seattle millions of dollars to get a pure water supply. She has the best of any city in the Northwest, but it is all to be surrendered, and the lives of even children unborn are to be jeopardized to gratify the mercinary greed of railroad operators and their attorneys. Will you stand for it, Mr. Good Citizen? We are surprised that the ice trust in Seattle has not had a house warming ere this. It may, however, be due to the fact that a change of U. S. district attorneys delayed matters. We see no reason now for Potter Charles Sullivan not getting busy in the ice business. The mechanics working on the new wing to the county jail will not complete it before it is needed, as murderer's row is gaining weekly. PRICE TEN CENTS. Nine women out of ten of this generation are said to be scrapping for their own living. Good thing, push it along. Was the results of the recent Walla Walla election the beginning of the end of Senator Ankeny and his boosters? "Should children be whipped," is a Spokesman-Review head line. They should unless you want them to whip you. An enterprising firm of Eastern chemists have put on the market a preparation which they declare is a positive antidote for packing-house meat whether the latter is taken by mistake or with suicidal intent. "What would they do to me if I pulled up and let Pushcart win this race?" asked the jockey. "There's a quarter of a million bet on me, but I can make more by losing." "If you pull your horse? That'd be race suicide for you." New York city is undergoing a moral Thaw that promises to bring a goodly number of the "400" in very bad repute. There is nothing like a good thaw whether in the frigid zone or in the club rooms of Greater New York. If the orthodox theory of the hereafter is correct, the men who are boosting the price of ice to a point that must result in great suffering to the sick and the children of the cities' poor will be put out of business when they emigrate. Our next legislature should enact a law consigning persons guilty of such acts as is Chester Thompson even though they be raving maniacs, to imprisonment for life and beyond the pardoning power of any governor. If it is found that Chester Thompson was perfectly sane at the time he shot Judge Emory then the P.-I. is correct in saying he should be looked upon and treated as a mad dog, but such opinions might as well be withheld until that point has been decided. If you failed to read the "Beginning of the End"' editorial in last Wednesday's P.-I. then hunt up a copy of the paper of that issue and read it. Red hot is no name for it, and if it is a sample of what is to come in the fight against the re-election of Levi Ankeny to the U. S. senate, then he had better come off the perch right now. This packing-house scandal leaves a bad taste in the mouth. Friday .July 18, 1906 From a lawyer’s standpoint Big Bill Mor- ris has added one more brilliant star to his crown of success as a criminal lawyer for the jury that for two weeks heard the evi- dence in the George Mitchell case, who killed Creffield, the Holy Roller, after retiring to the jury room returned a verdict of not guilty in just one hour and twenty-five min- utes after leaving the jury box. Mr. Morris ind his partner, S. M. Shipley, handled the oo —. a SN ag po 8 :. es “4 ff Fr — a“ W. H. morRIS case in such a masterly manner that they felt so morally certain that their client would be acquitted that they submitted the case to the jury without argument with the re- sults as stated above. Technically speaking George Mitchell committed murder, but twelve men has never yet been found that would convict a father or a brother that killed the traducer of his daughter or his sis- ter of any crime. Public sentiment has been with Mitchell ever since the deed was done and so much so that the prosecutor was ridi- culed when he rose in court to make an objec- tion, and it does seem he would have seen the handwriting on the wall. IT WAS SICKLY SENTIMENT. When Judge Woffard of Kansas City gave Wallace Cooper, a Negro, thirty years in the penitentiary instead of sending him to the gallows and in passing sentence de- livered a lecture which ran as follows: “How old are you?’’ asked Judge Wof- ford. “Twenty years.’’ “‘Well,’’ said the judge, ‘‘you’re guilty of murder all right, but you’re a poor, ig- norant black man, and I don’t want to hang you. You have no friends. You have no one to plead that you were insane when you killed this man. If I sentence you to hang you will hang just as sure as there’s a God in heaven. “There will not be a whole lot of women circulating petitions to save your neck. There will not be a lot of fool men writing letters to the governor to save you. No one will send you flowers. You'll just be forgotten until the day set for your hanging and then they’ll hang you. I’ll sentence you to thirty years in the penitentiary.” He relieved himself of a beautiful bunch of sentiment which may have been appreci- ated by the prisoner, but not by the Negroes in general. The Negro wants no more nor less than any other citizen. If a Negro is guilty of a crime for which he should be hanged then the lawabiding Negro citizens THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN wish him hung if the law says so. The Negro desires no sickly sentiment smeared over him, no pity nor no merey: because he is black. He wants a square deal the same as that accorded to the whitest and most in- fluential citizen in the United States. It is quite true no one takes the doomed Negro flowers nor sign petitions for his pardon, for in most cases when aceused of crime even before a justice of the peace has had an op- portunity to inquire as to his probable crime, he is torn to pieces by a heartless mob. What the Negroes of this country would like for the judges on the bench is to send men who mob and lynch Negroes only suspected of crimes and that too before any legal arraign- ment has been given to the penitentiary or to the bottomless pits. It is very question- able if Cooper would have been as kindly treated at the hands of the trial judge had he, Cooper, have killed a-white instead of a black man. If the man had escaped the lynchers’ limb the trial judge would in all probability have been unable to have seen any’ mitigating cireumstances for not send- ing him to the gallows. BORROWED THOUGHTS. (Appeal to Reason.) (4/appeal LO BedsOn.) Russia is still on the bomb. We'll have to ‘‘sack’’ the Salt Trust if it keeps on ‘‘getting fresh.’”’ “Aanyway,’’ reflected John D., ‘‘J. Og- den is as deep in the muck as I am in the mire.’’ Frederick Wilson, embezzling clerk of a LosAngeles bank, is six feet tall and $20,000 short. The worst that can possibly be said of the meat situation is that it is as bad’as it smells. Evidently the money Senator Platt is al- leged to have paid to Mae Wood wasn’t “hush money.’” “Silence is goldén,’’ but Miss Mae Wood says she’ll take her’s in silver or currency, thank you. Chairman Wadsworth says the packers gave his committee ‘“‘many valuable sugges- tions.”’ Perhaps he meant to say ‘‘tips.’” “This is dog-gone bad,’’ declared the Chi- cago citizen who found a piece of his missing canine pet in his breakfast sausage. When a person dies from the effect of eat- ing packing-house hlood pudding, is it proper to ascribe his demise to ‘‘blood poisoning ?”’ C. M. Schwab denies that he intends to get himself elected United States senator from Nevada. There are some things too rank even for Charlie. Since the New York Ice Trust has put the price of its commodity up to fifty cents a hundred, Gotham finds no difficulty in keep- jing up its reputation as ‘‘a hot old town.’’ J. S.

C. Sullivan would select two state senators, each of whom has one session as yet to serve in the state senate, unless they resign, which they will hardly do. Walter Christian is a state senator from Ta- coma and‘is likewise attorney for the Un- ion Pacific, and C. T. Hutson, the second deputy, is state senator from Walla Walla county. Both of them voted for Senator Piles and are likewise advocates of the re- election of Senator Ankeny. If any further demonstration was required of the need of the direct primary system it has been furnished by the primaries and con- vention of the Republicans of this county. All kinds of jobbery was used to carry the primaries and the convention was manipu- lated by the politicians, even though a ma- jority of the delegates were opposed to them, as shown by the vote on the temporary organization. The slate was made in the office of John N. Pickrell, by half a dozen men and was forced through the convention with only one break. The candidates nomi- nated appear to be good enough men, but they were not selected by the rank and file of the party, but by the bosses through pack- ing the primaries with illegal and non-Re- publican voters.—Colfax Commoner. 2 In a mayoralty contest last spring R. L. McCormick lost Tacoma and it was the con- census of opinion among the politicians that it was something of a setback to his sena- torial aspirations, but he said nothing. It’s a rather remarkable political coincident that Senator Ankeny’s personal manager, who is the same as Senator Ankeny himself, was likewise defeated in a mayoralty contest in his home city. Of course, Senator Ankeny is a candidate to succeed himself and if McCormick’s defeat injured his senatorial chances it would seem that Ankeny’s defeat has injured his even worse than McCor- mick’s. Walla Walla’s municipal election is a thing of the past and the Crocker bunch was routed horse and dragon by the Boxers, and if the Union was correct in its anti-election statements that that election was a test of Senator Ankeny’s strength at home then he is pretty darn weak, as George E, Kellough defeated Gilbert Hunt, Senator Ankeny’s mayoralty candidate, last Monday by a ma- jority of 359 votes, thus giving the Boxers control of the city and a strong leverage for capturing the county in the fall. Eugene Lorton, J. L. Mohundro and A. F. Kees, three men Senator Ankeny permitted DB. Crocker to turn down, were prominent, if not real, leaders in the revolt against Sena- tor Ankeny’s man for mayor, and to say they are jubilant over the results is mildly putting it, The Pie-Maker is inclined to think that the first of a long series of reverses that’s in store for the Crocker-Baker bunch who have been running things with a high hand is at hand. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN H. L. Jaffe, a well known Second ward politician, has vamoosed and is now a resi- dent of California, and his leaving has to an extent simplified things in that senatorial district. If Andrew Hemrich decides to not ask for a renomination the fight as his sue- cessor will be between Abe Kistler and Plin Allen. The latter will be Senator Piles’ can- didate, while the former will be Hemrich’s choice, which will mean the support of Sen- ator Wilson. For Plinny Allen to succeed in getting the nomination would not mean much for, if he did, it is very generally believed that the P.-I. would grind him into mince meat in the campaign. Why would it do so? you ask. For the simple reason that Plinny Allen at a Lincoln Day banquet given by the Young Men’s Republican Club some four years ago in a speech on journalism said John I. Wilson was theoretically guilty of murder because his paper, the P.-I., exposed the rottenness of the administration of Chief of Police William Meridith, which expose indirectly resulted in Meridith losing his life. When, in fact, Allen not only mis- stated the case, but grievously wronged Sen- nator Wilson and he swore eternal venge- ance against him, and he will hardly be elected. But to return to Jaffe, who was de- feated for councilman last spring and ac- cording to his version by Abe Kistler he will not be in the ward to retaliate on Kistler, hence should he be nominated he would be dead certain of election. : Representative, Deputy Attorney General and would-be State Senator Bobby Booth, whose arduous duties for the state require almost one hour of labor each day: from him and for which he draws a salary of $1,800 per year, says he would rather have the op- position of The Seattle Republican and any voters that it has any influence with than to have their support. Pretty broad statement, Bob, and before the fight is over you will wish you had not made that statement. The editor hereof lives in the district and if you are ever nominated he will make it so warm for you that you will not know when election day comes round. Once on a time another smart ‘‘Alec’’ made a similar remark and The Seattle Republican went after him and he is no longer a publie officeholder, and you may meet a similar fate, notwithstanding the fact you now hold two offices and are seek- ing a third. Every federal appointment that has been made in this state since the election of Samuel H. Piles, with three exceptions, were persons who were members of the late legis- lature, yea not only every appointment, but all of the deputies were likewise members of the last legislature. Evidently the mem- bers got no great amount of money directly for their votes for United States senator, but they all got promises to be supported for some federal appointment and they are get- ting them, and the ‘party worker, who hap- pened to not be a member of the last legis- lature, has had no more show of getting a erumb of the party spoils than a lump of ice would have of passing through hades. One can to an extent understand from the above why there is always that wild scramble to go to the legislature when there is a United States senator to be elected. : The Republicans of Whitman at their re- cent county convention named the following ticket and to an extent endorsed Senator Levi Ankeny for re-election: For State Senator, 8th Distriet—Peter Me- Gregor of Hooper. For State Representative, 7th Distriet—E. J. Durham of Uniontown, J. Hugh Sherfey of Colfax. For State Representatives, 8th Distriet— F. P. Connell of Tekoa, G. W. Peddycord of Palouse. For Sheriff—Samuel Lathrum of Oakes- dale. For Auditor—Wm. M. Dunean of Pull- man. For Treasurer—A. R. Metz of Colfax. For Clerk—Calvin W. Young of Thornton. For Prosecuting Attorney—R. H. Kipp of Colfax. For Superintendent of Schools—N. D. Sho- walter of Oakesdale. For Assessor—M. C. True of Colfax. For Surveyor—E. C. Murray of Colfax. For Coroner—D. B. Crawford of Colfax. For Commissioner, 2d Distriet—J. R. Rup- ley of Pullman. For Commissioner, 3d Distriet—Samuel Ellis of Colfax. ‘“‘Father,’’ cried the boy, ‘‘I cannot tell a lie! I did it with my little hatchet.’’ Tears came to the old man’s eyes. ~ “Alas,’? he murmured, ‘‘I had hoped you would some day be president of the United States. And now—now I see I must forget that long-cherished hope.”’ Call for Republican State Convention. A Republican state convention is hereby called, to be held at Seattle, Wash., on Wednesday, September 19, 1906, at the hour of 10 o'clock a. m., for the pur- pose of nominating three candidates for, representa~ tive in: congress and four candidates for supreme court judges, promulgating a party platform, select- ing a state central committee, and for the transac- tion of such other business as may properly come before said convention. The basis of representation in said convention shall be four delegates at large for each county and one delegate for each 200 votes or major fraction thereof, cast for Hon. Samuel G.

The background is plain and light-colored. The portrait is oval-shaped.] HON. JOHN L. WILSON. Who Seeks No Further Political Preferment At a banquet in Tacoma last Wednesday evening the Hon. John L. Wilson in the course of a speech spoke as follows concerning himself ever being a candidate again: "In view of the statements that from time to time are manifest from the public press and individuals who say that I am a candidate for this or that office I desire here and now to say that I have been greatly honored by the people of this state. I was the first member of congress elected by the people, twice being nominated by acclamation, and then promoted to the United States senatorship in 1895. "I have had as many honors as has come to any man in this state. I deeply and keenly appreciate them, but I am not a candidate to succeed Senator Ankeny. "I am not a candidate to succeed Senator Piles. I am not a candidate for the goverorship of this state. I am not a candidate for any office, elective or appointive. "I hope in the years to come, in what of life may be vouchsafed for me, to do everything in my power as a citizen of this commonwealth to aid and assist in upbuilding the state. "I hope to take a continuous interest in the political affairs of my commonwealth, but never to be a candidate again for any office, elective or appointive. I am under many obligations to all the people. I propose whenever and wherever I can to assist those friends who have aided me in the years that have come and gone." Now, let Sam Piles' friends stop swearing that Wilson and his friends are trying to down him. The talk about W. L. Jones succeeding Ankeny will not down, and it is being pronounced every day. Mr. Jones will be nominated this year without opposition, and of course he will be overwhelmingly elected. Two years from now Spokane county is going to make a fight for one of the nominees for representative to congress, and if Jones wishes the nomination at that time he will have to make a masterly fight for it. If, on the other hand, he gracefully steps down and out and assists Spokane in her fight for his successor, but announces his candidacy for United States senator to succeed Senator Ankeny it's a foregone conclusion that he would win by a most decisive vote. For in that election the direct primary law will be in action and under it Senator Ankeny could not win, though he spent a barrel of money. And Jones is the most available man, being popular, plain and a man of the people. "The Whitman county convention was a 'clean up' for the Ankeny forces, they having succeeded in naming the entire ticket, save that of county clerk. Dr. Stuht of the McBride wing and his following were routed root and branch. Pete McGregor from Hooper was nominated to succeed Dr. Wilson, and will win in a walk. Durham was nominated as one of the representatives, and as he voted for Senator Ankeny while he was a member, tends to prove that Whitman has taken her seat in the Ankeny band wagon." Tacoma Forum. THE SEATTLE REPU LICAN HON. JOHN L. WILSON, Wh Men who accept nominations to public office under promise of support from corporations are unfit to be trusted with the people's business. The time has arrived when the people should inquire into every candidate's standing on this point, and if not beyond suspicion should be defeated at the polls. There are dozens of men who would consider it an honor to fill any of the offices at the gift of the people if the people themselves would remove the taint by refusing to vote for a man who was believed to have bartered in the rights of the people by promising his own election doubly safe. The Orator-Outburse is aware that the people have winked at this form of dishonesty so long that politicians have come to regard the practice as being legitimate and have carried it to every elective and appointive office in the United States. Let us take a long step toward clean politics by requiring every person in taking every oath of office to swear that he has not promised, directly or indirectly, to assist any person to the appointment of any office which might grow out of his or another's election, and to provide a fine of at least one thousand dollars for every violation.—Orator-Outburst. ```markdown ``` Friday, July 13, 1903 eeks No Further Political Preferment William E. Curtis has been stirred by a correspondent into compiling some interesting statistics on the benefactions of Andrew Carnegie. Up to his recent departure for Scotland, Mr. Carnegie has established 1,290 public libraries. Of these, 779 are in the United States and have cost or will cost when completed. $29,004,080; about $6,000,000 has been expended in England, $2,000,000 in Scotland and $1,475,000 in Canada. Mississippi is the only state in the union to which Mr. Carnegie has not contributed anything. William Randolph Hearst has decided to make Bryan's nomination for the presidency in 1908 unanimous by he, Hearst, declaring he will not be a candidate. Now, Buster Bryan, beware of Greeks bearing gifts. When a "Southerner" gets a big appointment from the federal government, we often find that he is a northern man who moved down there and carried his carpet bag with him.—Baltimore Sun. PERSONAL. Mr. R. W. Butler left for Fairbanks, Alaska, last Tuesday for an indefinite stay, so far as he knew when he left. Mr. Butler for a number of years has been engaged in the building and contracting business in Seattle and was very successful. Some two years ago he lost his wife and then he himself got into bad health. He is making the trip as much or more for health as anything, his physicians thinking the change would be beneficial to him. Mr. Alex Taylor, of Sunnyside, spent a week in the city visiting with friends. He returned home last Saturday. Mr. Taylor says the members of the colored colony in that section of the state are doing exceedingly well and have splendid prospects for a good crop this year. He further stated that quite a few strangers had come into the district very recently and were looking for government land. He claimed that there is land for many and if the colored man does not take advantage of it at once it would all be gone. Miss Bedell, of Sunnyside, has been visiting with the O'Brien family for the past two weeks. Miss Bedell's father was a pioneer in the Sunnyside country, he taking up a homestead there in 1890 and living on it continuously ever since. Miss Bedell, after having completed the course at the Sunnyside public school, entered the high school at North Yakima, from which she graduated last June. After all expenses had been paid the trustees of the A. M. E. Church of this city and the pastor, Rev. F. L. Donahoo, realized $505.70 out of the church fair, which they ran for four days a couple of weeks ago. Since Rev. Donahoo has been pastor of the local organization over $800 have been paid on the church debt, which was something like $2,400 when he came here. The Evergreen Literary Society met last Friday evening at Mt. Olivet Baptist Church with President Cragwell in the chair, and an interesting program was rendered. The next meeting of the society will be Friday evening, July 20th, which will be the last meeting until September, when it will begin its regular winter work. The Evergreen Literary has held together longer than any similar organization ever started in this city by Afro-Americans, and is more generally attended. In short, it has enjoyed a season of good and instructive work, and it is hoped that its next year's work will be even better than that of the year closing. The Afro-American Political Club will hold a smoker Wednesday, the 1st day of August, to which every Afro-American in the city and county is invited to be present. The cornerstone of the Mt. Zion Baptist church will be laid by the Masons Sunday, July 22nd. Rev. Manny, who is doing the pastoral work at present, is desirous of a general attendance. The services will open at 3 o'clock p. m. The Baptist convention of this state will convene in Tacoma next Thursday and delegates from Spokane, Roslyn, Ravensdale, Franklin, Everett, Bellingham, Seattle and Tacoma will be present. THE SEATTLE REPEBLICAN The fourth annual communication of the grand lodge of Washington and Oregon will convene in this city next Monday, July 16th, with the following lodges represented: Enterprise No. 1, Washington No. 2, Inland Empire No. 3, Compass N. No. 4. The public installation of officers will be Friday, July 20, at Odd Fellows' Hall, 26th and Jackson St. met last Sunday afternoon at its regular meeting place and was well attended. Matters pertaining to the best interest of the Negro in this section of a general nature were discussed, in which the most of those present participated. How to best influence the colored folk of the community against purchasing goods of any kind from the firm of Frederick & Nelson for having permitted the waiters of the cafe run in connection with the store to refuse to serve a colored woman was the chief topic of discussion. All agreed that an effective boycott could sooner or later be put on the store and should be done. Mr. W. C. Peoples, secretary of the Afro-American Realty & Investment Company, suggested that a circular be issued and one mailed to every Negro householder in the city and the suggestion was well received and at a subsequent meeting may be adopted. A committee was named to get the pastors of the colored churches to help push the matter along. The picnic to be given under the auspices of the Forum will take place as previously announced, July 19th, and at Woodland Park. The committee having charge of the matter is made up of Messrs. J. T. Gayton, Henry Gregg and Wm. Wylie. The telephone committee was rejuvenated with Messrs. W. C. People, Mr. Day and J. T. Gayton, who will wait on the Sunset Telephone Company with the view of seeing if positions for a limited number of Afro-Americans cannot be made by the company. The next meeting of the Forum will be Sunday, July 29th. Mr. F. F. Keeble will discuss the Advisability of the Young Negro Entering the Barber Business; while Mr. W. L. Presto will discuss the negative features of the subject. Mr. Presto will not undertake to answer any argument Mr. Keeble may advance, but will discuss his side independently of what Mr. Keeble may say. GRAND OPERA HOUSE. The opera season at the Grand finishes, for the present, next Sunday night, when the San Francisco Opera Company will give their farewell production of "Robin Hood," and when we say that it reflects great credit upon the company and the promoters, we only echo the universal sentiment of all who have witnessed the eight productions given at the Grand by this talented company during the past two months. The season has been profitable, and it could doubtless be continued indefinitely, for Seattle has demonstrated its ability to support and maintain such a musical organization; and should the company return here in the future, or a like organization be projected, it will find just as hearty support as has been vouchsafed this splendid collection of artists.

The Aylesworth Company are presenting "A Ruined Life" at the Third Avenue Theatre this week. The play proceed to be a surprise in many respects. The story is different from that usually told in melodrama, and the ending of the play is very different from the anticipation of the audience. The Aylesworth Company gave the play a very superior production. Next week will be the last week of this favorite company at the Third Avenue. The ywill present the big Eastern melodramatic success, entitled "Under the City Lamps." The scenes of the play are laid in New York City, after nightfall, and record the doings of the various heterogeneous elements of New York life under the shadows of night. There are many startling situations, scenes and actions in the various parts of the play that will be reminiscent of some events recently recorded in the newspapers. After next Sunday night, July 22nd, the Aylesworth Company will take a well-earned rest and prepare for a road tour in a new play, entitled "The Lights of 'Frisco." ```markdown ``` ---
