On a vote, Mr. Pratt was the only one opposed and he refused to change his vote so that the finance committee might have unanimous backing.

An- derson, state superintendent of the Anti-Saloon league, yesterday was sentenced to two years in Sing Sing prison for third degree forgery, Mr. Anderson was permitted to retain his seat while the sentence was | being imposed. He sat with arms folded and betrayed no emotion. The sentence was imposed by Supreme Justice Tompkins, who declared that Anderson’s crime was a deliberate one and that perjury had been com- | mitted on the witness stand. Former Governor Charles man, counsel for Anderson, made an impassioncd plea for clemency, as- merting that his crime had not harmed any one and that he had many emies throughout the country who would profit by his being given a heavy sentence. foras pronouncing the sentence, Justice Tompkins said: “It been suggested that 1 sus- rend the sentence. Usvally where segtences arc suspended the ant has pleaded guilty and expressed sorrow for his crime, This defendant, Lowever, has maintained his inno- cence throughout the trial and does so now, His crime was a deliberate one, the evidence shows. In addition were conflicting stories told on the witness stand. One of them was untruc and that was perjury Anderson was freed in $5,000 on a stay of execution to permit Mr, Whitman to secure a certificate of reasonable doubt which the trial court refused to grant.

Yes, I knew it. But what do you think about the seating problem in most of our playhouses? You do not know? You have not given it a thought? Well, as leng as you have not thought \dbnut it, you may permit me to jog your memory a little, When you went the last time—per haps just a little earlier than usual, |in order to get a seat—and you came -lo a point where there was & young! | man sitting next to the aisle, with g {four vacant seats to his right, and| |you and your wife started to make | | ¥ourselves at home, by occupying two ,0( them, only to be told by the afore- ? | mentioned young man, that those four | | seats were “taken,” and you saw no | | one occupying them, did you like that, | or have you forgotten? Then when you went scurrying all | over the house, and had the same ex- | perience wherever you found vacant | | seats, were your thoughts of a very | pious order? Did you honestly think 'that all those vacant seats were hon- estly taken? Or did you think théy were being reserved by some one who | had paid only one admission, and were being held by him or her for some one who was expected to arrive ]dtor"’ Can it be that you have for- } gotten that, too? Well, I have had a number of those | experiences which I have not forgot- ten. In one instance recently I found four vacant seats to the right of a| young man who informed me that the seats neap him were taken, and in| each one of those scats was a man's} cap, which I found a little Jater had been borrowed from four young men | who sat just in front of him. And when the seats were finally taken, they were occupied—not by four men, but | four women, In another case, a girl wias holding two scats beside her, They were loaded with wearing apparel which she informed me belonged to ,women already in the house. I watch- ed those seats. Shortly after the per- formance started, two young women, | fully dressed, came in from the out- | |side and took those scats, and the clothing that had been placed in the | seats, was taken over by the first young woman. It is not necessary to mumply in- for they are too numerous. | The above illustration will serve to general ubuse. The same | condition obtains in allfthe theaters in the city, The scat hdgs are of both | soxes. Some do not care to go to a ! theater early and thus secure a seat for themselves, but get some ona to go ahead, buy one admission, and have chairs reserved for them, In some instances such seats have remained vacant all through the, eve-) ning, simply because said seats had |been “taken”, up to the time the performance commenced, and after the house was darkened, patrons standing were unable to locate them, Now, Mr, Editor, will you do what you can to get the management of the various theaters, to adopt a rule, and enforce it, of first come, first served They could do this if they wished to, It's 4 nuisance, and an insuit to their patrons to allow this condition to con- tinue, If they can’'t put a stop to it, (they should be compelled to sell re served tickets only, SQUARE DBAL, stances, Ireland Again Res:)-l-mds To Hounds in Full Swing Dublin, Feb, 9,~-One of the first amusements to suffer from pelitical disturbance in Ireland is always rid- ing to hounds, and the refusal of the people to allow the dogs and thelr mounted followery over their lands has been regarded as a demonstration of political opinion.
