Every seat, every inch of standing

last iilglit by people who came to see the
first night’- performance of Company F's

at 8:00 o'clock it revealed a tier of black
faces that rose from the footllghts to the
files. representing an aggregation of
local burnt cork artists, greater than has
probably ever before been seen on the

interspersed with new and orglnnl gags

audience heartily appreciated."
Part II. opened with a silent drill by
Messrs. Stevens, Merritt, Wilcoxson,
Buttery, Belts. Smith, Scott, Ilonnecker,
Ilunt, Radio, Keith and Uwppler, which
was executed with marvelous precision.
Aquanette composed of Messrs. Hod-

"Come where the Lilies Bloom," and
“Dick” Mitchell gave a lulicrous talk
on what he called renous matters.

Mr. Williams was seen again in

the entertainment concluded with a
laughable and original farce, entitled
"The Gas-Our Office," in which the
pleasures and emoluments of a news-

portrayed.
Tire performance throughout was of it
high order of minstrelsy, and much of it
would have been creditable to profes-

much of it. The performance will be

The w. o. ‘I'. ll. convention. as Assn by
One Who Was There.
Editor Sentinel»-
Allow an eye-witness, and a clnsll
listener at the late national convention
of the W. C. T. U. a few words about it.
It was one of the largest, most irreplr-
ing, largely sought and popular convoca-
tlons ever held in the city.
There was not from the beginning to the
end of lls four‘days' meetings, a word of
detractlori or unkindneria as to any man,
party platform or principle.
Mrs. J. Ellen Poster, of Iowa, gave
notice one year ago that at llilll session
she should withdraw unless the W. C. T.
U. would refuse to endorse any party
that works for prohibition. The W. C.
T. U. does declare itself non-partisan
and, us to its constitution and by laws, is
so.
A good, liberal per cent. of the mom.
bersblp lll of the non-partisan order,
The body does not seek or try In any
way to dominate «the privatevor personal
views of its members: ‘Ilrs. 3mm, who
‘hltherto‘lias been a member, and is so
still, labored through all the campaign
of last fall with and for the republican
party. In her work South she issued
e «do and circulars to the White rihlmn
women to give their influence and aid to
the support of that party. The W. C. T.
U. for the past six years has passed and
re—afilrrued a resolution to the rill-ct that
they—the women-would give their in-
fluence to that party that should cham-
pion prohibition.
This they did again the other day at
Battery D, in Chicago. This W the sum
and total of their offending.
Mrs. Foster did not like i‘. Slit! was
treated, however, with unbounded court-
esy. There was no ”hissing" by the lady
delegates in that convention. It was
estimated that an audience of from live
to six thousand people was preswiit clarity,
The platform held upon an average two
hundred of the most distinguished ladies
and gentlemen in the land. United
States senators, judges, eitv ellisinla,
college presidents, authors anti divine-s.
These all glad, apparently, to lai‘seated
around that queen of the American plat
form—Frances E. Willard.
Beautifully, patiently, tenderly i-Vrn,
did she bear and forbear with Mrs. Fost-
er's prolonged antagonism. Finally, at
the last hour of the last day of the ses-
sion, late, 10:30 o‘clock, the rule was
taken. and out of nearly five hundred
delegates less than two score \‘llltd for
the resolution to amend the constitution.
The “V. C, T. U. would not. go on record
as silent or evasive us to the duty of men
to vote against the saloon abomination.
Mrs. Foster arose and left the hull, fol»
lovred by thirteen (lows) ladies. Im-
mediately thirty-seven other Iowa ladies
present took their places. I have thus
given your readers a plain an! reliabze
statement of the “afloir.”
The little while ribbom r who winds
over me thinks that “justice to the many
grand, good women reading yum jour-
nal,and who are ‘oiismformulf demands
it."
And now, let, me add. no "one hun-
dred thousand" ladies have “left the W.
C. T. U." Mrs. Foster is yet a member,
and the Iowa union cannot "dissolve“
relation with the national organization
for one year. Meantime, if it seemeth
her good, she can start a union of her
own, inspired by whatsoever motive,
rubber, or zv-al there may be, lying brick

Secession brought on the war in '00,
and this may hasten the polarization
of temperance sentiment. Toe blIIlB is
on, and must be fought out.
If faith, love unfreigned, prayer, cour-
agegirded life, and malclilese, indomit-
able pluck will wina battle. then this
high-souled, doubtless woman, my
neighbor, Frances Williard, will cross
the Alpine heights and find her Italy of
rescued and protected homes upon the
Other side. Mrs. Foster, too, is an elo—
quent, brave leader. The field is wide
and the cause a noble one. While the
wife has left me a moment I say, “Let
the women fight it out I "
Sincerely, Ii. A. D.
Bhrglary Insurance:
The triumpb,thus far, of, the prnjactile
force over the mast invulnerable armor
of defence, which has characterized the
development of the naval armaments of
the great powers, finds a frequent coun-
terpart in the destructive violence of the
fire fiend, notwithstanding the solid
breastworks of granite and brick, the
mechanism of instantaneous alarm and
the overwhelming floods of water, form-
ing a triple alliance to oppose his pro-
grem. The recent heavy losses in this
well-known field may reasonably renew
the interest in those classes of insurance
which are not subject to disasters of such
magnitude.
