The Republican enthusiasts who went to Lancaster to attend the political meeting held there Monday evening, when Secretary Taft and Hon. Albert Douglas and Theodore Burton spoke there, returned with enthusiasm redoubled for their standard bearer in this, the Eleventh district. The meetings were an unparalleled success from every view point. A large crowd thronged the streets when the Ross county contingent rolled in on the traction line, and from that time on the Ross county marchers with our most excellent Twentieth Cent ay band, made things lively. The arrival of Secretary Taft and Messrs.

Douglas and Burton from Logan in the evening on the Hocking Valley train was the signal for a grand illumination, and the Ross county contingent and Twentieth Century band and the Lancaster Republican Club acted as escort for the distinguished trio from the station to the hotel, and sticks of red fire and other pyrotechnical effects made it such a demonstration as is seldom seen in that stronghold of Democracy, Lancaster. The crowd gathered was a large one and necessitated an overflow meeting in the opera house. The reports of the addresses given are taken from the morning dispatches in the Commercial Tribune. of small val. lace ruffles.

amwan Dayton, Oct. Basore the town marshal of Franklin, near here, was shot and instantly killed this morning while attempting to arrest George White, a negro, suspected of being implicated In several robberies there. White was captured after an exciting chase, and Is now in the town jail. Mob vialence is feared. The negro held the pursuers at bay until he was shot in the right arm, when he surrendered.

A mob, composed of three hundred men, attacked the Franklin jail at one o'clock this morning, bent on lynching the negro. While they were forcing an entrance into the. rear Sheriff Patterson and two deputies took White out the front way and hustled him into an automobile and made a speedy run for Lebanon, the county seal The departing automobile was lir4d at by the armed men and boys in the mob. The colored people are being I chased out of Franklin without baying time to explain. Indications point to more serious complications to-night President Goes Hunting.

Washington, Oct. Roosevelt leaves Washington to-morrow for Pine Knot, Albemarl county, Virginia, where he will devote the remainder of the week to hunting. Pine Knot is the county seat. Mrs. Roosevelt will accompany the officer and as a Republtzan representative of the administration, to urge the election of a Republican Congress that would uphold Preeident Roosevelt and his administration.

He then- spoke of the record made by Roosevelt and a Republican congress of the anti-trust legislation, and what had been accomplished along that line. He said that Bryan's appeal, made here Saturday, for a Democratic Congress to uphold President Roosevelt was a campaign joke. His speech touched on tariff revision and the Panama canal, and he dwelt at length upon the subject of the Philippine tariff. The urged the election of the Republican state ticket and especially a Republican congressman from this district. The Taft party left here on a special train for Cleveland at 11 lie Indorses State Ticket.

Logan, Oct. 30.Adhering to his purpose, as announced at Cleveland Saturday night in the first of three speeches he made in Ohio, William Howard Taft, Secretary of War, did not discuss state issues in his speech in Hocking county's capital Monday, the home city of the Democratic candidate for Congress, Judge O. W. Wright. But be did advise his auditors to vote for the Republican state ticket.

He did say that they should cast their ballots for the ticket headed by Carrel A. Thompson. This utterance is suggestive and highly important. There has leen jubititIon in the party of the opposition and that section of the Republican press arrayed against the State ticket that Secretary of War Taft, the man who successfully inveighed against "bossism" at Akron last year, did not say one word at Cleveland in favor of the Republican candidates named at the Dayton convention, where Senators Foraker and Dick were in control, and where he was utterly ignored in the resolutions of indorsement What Mr. Taft said on this point is as follows: "I am here because I am a citizen of Ohio, a member of the Republican Party and a member of the cabinet of President Roosevelt.

"It seemed to me my duty in these three capacities to come here and lend what little aid I might to unite the Republicans of Ohio in electing the State Republican ticket, that there might be a Congress with a Republican majority to uphold the hands of Theodore Roosevelt." In this, the Eleventh, district, more, perhaps, than in any other Congresional division of Ohio, there are factional troubles, jealousies and The presumption is that Secretary Taft was instructed upon this point, and was careful to draw the line in his appeal for a Republican victory in November. HOOE WAS FOUND GUILTY OF PERJURY. PittsburgOct. ne jury In the case of Clifford Hooe, the negro coachman of Augustus Hartje, charged with perjury, returned a verdict of guilty. Attorneys for Hooe will When the director ot the orchestra tapped twice Monday evening, there issued forth a note of triumph unequalled, and the St.

Peter's Dramatic Society opened its third season amid a blaze of glory. Although the seating capacity of the auditorium is only about 300, there were over 400 admissions taken in for the first night. To those who had not been -in the hall since the changes were made, It seemed as a revelation of beauty, and almost the first thing that struck the eye was the beautiful stage and drop curtain, the work of Mr. Leo Kathe, a local boy, who has spent weeks in the elaboration of the scenes and decoration, and under whose management the stage appeared Monday night as a nucleus of all that is artistic. Before the vast audience was entirely seated the large orchestra burst Into a magnificent overture, after which Miss, Anna Bohn, in tones of the clearest and sweetest soprano, sang Stephen Adam's "Fiona," and when she had finished, there burst forth a roar of applause that shook the room to the very ceiling.

After an intermezzo by the orchestra, Miss Cecelia Kellhofer, with her usual masterly skill, gave an excellent rendition of "Smiles and Caresses," which was followed by one of the biggest hits of the whole performance, "Shove lin' Coal," Lew Dockstader's big song hit, sung by Mr. Fred Hess, who is the acknowledged leading black face and coon shouting amateur of this city. Mr. Hess was encored to strenuously that he was obliged to sing another famous negro lyric, entitled, Steal Away," ending the first part of the program with a roar of laughter. After the intermission, during which two splendid selections were given by the orchestra, come The dramatical program in the format an English farce-comedy entitled, "Allow Me to Apologise," the cast of which was as follows: Sir Peter Mr.

Albert Baader Captain Charles Seymour Mr. Otto Kathe Goliath Goat. Mr. Matthew Cahill Dixon, the groom Edwin Madru Gregory, the valet Mr. Ernest Hutchinson Harriet Seymour Miss Bertha Streitenberger Mary Myrtle Miss Grace Smith Kitty, the Miss Emma Kern Fanny Miss Anna Pfaff The play was divided into two acts, the first taking place in a room near Hastings, and the second taking place at Pedigree Hall.

The play tskld of the adventures of a young English school girl, Fanny Fairlove, by name, and some of the situations and intrigues which her adventurous spirit led her into, together with the comical ancestor-worship of Sir Peter Pedigree and the heart-rending breaks of the parvenu Mr. Goat, assisted by the excellent work of the caste, made the play to bubble over with gentle and quiet mirth which only the pen of an Englishman can bring out. Mr. Albert Baader, as Pedigree, was the type of an old English gentleman, one could almost see; the blue blood coursing through his veins, and by his ancestor-worship, brought out rounds of applause. Mr.

Otto Kathe, as Captain Seymour, was manliness personified, and one might easily say of him, in I his evening dress, "The glass of fashion and the mould of form." Mr. Matthew Cahill, as the blase Goliath Goat, trying to climb the social ladder, was as comical and acrobatical as ever and received peal after peal of applause. Messrs. Edwin Madru and Ernest Hutchinson were very well in their parts also. Misses Bertha Streitenberger and Grace Smith, as Harriet Seymour and Mary Myrtle, were the exact counterparts of two aristocratic and well-behaved English girls, and in action and voice were perfection, and Miss Emma Kern, as the maid, was cuteness itself, in her brusque manner and North English drawl.

The leading part was played by Miss Alma Pfaff, who certainly did justice to it, arrayed in a charming creatidn of delicate pink in the first act, she was grace itself, and her masculine disguise in the second act was novel as well as mystifying. Miss Pfaff has had four years of 1 elocutionary and dramatical training at a school from which Miss Elsie 1 Janis was graduated, and is easily recognized as one of the leading amateurs of this city. At the close of the play, the audience was ushered out to the farewell strains of the orchestra, all feel-tug, to use a pecuniary expression, and on filth page.) TO-NIGHT Lancaster, Oct. 30.The Republican mass meeting held here Monday night.was the most successful and enthuiastic in the history of this county. An overflow meeting was held at the opera house, while Secretary Taft's main speech was made in the city Hall auditorium.

The party, including Secretary Taft, Congressman Burton and Hon. Albert Douglas, arrived from Logan at seven o'clock. They were met at the train by the Lancaqter Republican Club, the West Lancaster Republicans Club and a large delegation that had arrived earlier in the evening from Chillicothe, and were accorded a perfect ovation. All three speakers addressed both the city ball and opera house meetings. Hon.

A. I. Vorys presided as chairman of the meeting at the city hall and Hon. Malcolm Jennings at the opera house. Mr.

Douglas made a manly, dignified plea for the support of the voters of Fairfield county, and Congressman Burton's address was a plea to both Republicans and Democrats to indorse President Roosevelt's administration and uphold his hands by electing a Republican Congress. Secretary Taft was given a perfect ovation when he appeared on the platform. He started out with the declaration that he had come here as a Cabinet RECEPTION RECEPTION GEO. W.

William Spetnagel, of North High street came very near to being fatally burned at his home on Monday evening. The lad was playing in.front of his home and watching the workmen who had been working on the street paving and who after their days work had made a fire out of some tar and wooden debris and were burning some old sacks. The lad seeing this stookd to pick up a sack but in throwing it into lie fire lost his balance and fell downward into the fire, the cruel flames inflicting painful burns on his head, neck and hands and probably would have been the death of him, but for the presence of mind of one of the workman who seizing the boy plucked him from the flames. He was at once taken into the house and the family physician summoned who dressed his burns and this morning he is resting very easy. Given flev.
