SAN QUENT1N, Cal.. Feb. S.-For
their Washington's birthday holiday the
prisoners of San Quentln were enter
tained by one of tho world's grentost
dramatlo artists. On a rough stage In
a corner of the prison yard, Mme. Sarah
Bernhardt and her company of French
players presented her son's tnblold"play.
"One Christmas Night."
Two thousand Btrlped prisoners, In
cluding a score of women and five men
under sentonce of death, watched the
performance.
Tho "high walls checked a chill wind
from the bay nnd brilliant sunshine
warmed the huge audience. Although tho
play was In an alien tongue, tho prison
ers followed eagerly the moving story
of the nay young vlvandltro who saved
the Freneh.rtoWe and his' wife. ahiUclillil.
from the revolutionists.'
Just before the curtain went up, tho
prison orchestra struck up "Tho Mar
seillaise." Instantly the prisoners arose,
with uncovered heads. When the lictrcss
.appeared they applauded enthusiastically
and at tho conclusion of the play thoy
waved their caps and cheered. Tho play
had ended Just right. Tho emotional
plea of Mme. Bernhardt, as tho warm
hearted daughter of the regiment, had
softened tho heart .of the commandant
and tho prisoners wer.e "paroled."

Frenchman, stepped from the wings and
bowed to tho actress. Ho then real,fn

"Today for an hour," the old French
man read, "these stone walls have faded
away. For an hour your great art has
made us free. Our hearts have been
touched by the woman, the actress and
the play. We extend to you our grateful
thanks."
Mme. Bernhardt smiled graciously on
the old man and his comrades. When she
left the stage she carried with her tho
testimonial.
A number of prisoners took the part of
"supers" In tho performance and their
appearance as soldiers caused much de
light among the audience.
Among the hundred or moro visitors
who witnessed tho play were Warden
Johnston of Folsom prison and members
of the Stato Pardon board.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Feb. 23.-(Speclal,) The
charge of Andrew Morrlssey, socrotary to
Governor Morohead, that tho chairman of
tho democratic state committee hod
double-crossed the democratic stato can
didates und his subsequent statement that
ho was not speaking for (he administra
tion when ho made the remark, following
a conference of Governor Morehead and
Charllo Bryan and following a visit to
Mr. Morrlssey by W. II. Thompson, state
chairman, has revived the talk of Investi
gating I ho democratic state committee
and 11m relations to the corrupt practices
act.
Tho democratic houso Is Investigating
all republican officials und Institutions
and nearly all the Investigating resolu
tions begin "whereas, there are certain
rumors," but It is almost a dead moral
certainty that tho houso will appoint no
committee to look Into the workings of
the democratic state committee during the
last campaign and force the dispensers of
tho fund bent Into the state to te.II where
it went. Tho statements regarding this
matter have reached long past the
"rumor" stage nnd witnesses ran easily
bo secured who will tell that from J40.000
to 150,000 was sent Into the stato by the
national democratlo committee and used
to buy up votes or to Influence voters In
favor of Governor Wilson.
Where Did 11 Got
'Some mighty good democrats ate mix
loiifl to know who got this ' euonnoun
sum of money. One, mighty god demo
crat, "said $5,000 was turned over toho
Hhallenberkcr campaign and from that
was turned over to the Bryan wing of
tho party. The same mighty good demo
crat, who fs not a member of the legis
lature, but who fants to see an in
vestigation, sayx $5,000 whs turned over
to Tom Allen to bo placed where it would
do the most rood."
Tho statement of Andrew Morrlssey,
who was a candidate for attorney gen
eral, would Indicate that in his opinion
the money was used to further the In
terests of all the democratic siato ticket,
and In this belief the results of the elec
tion certainly bear him out.
The democratic house, however, l so
iruch Interested In Inveatlgatlng re
publican office holders and particularly
tho railway rommislon, that It Is deuf
to the demands for an investigation of
any democratic public men, eo It Is a
sufn gamble that should a resolution be
Introduced In the house to look Into the
alleged misuse of fundo In tho lato cam
paign by tho democrats, It would not
get to first base. .
Of course, the republicans of the sen
ate could adopt such a resolution, and
appoint such a committee, but as the new
houso contains many well trained detec
tives, the Investigation should be started
In the lower branch of the legislature.
MorrlMsry'N Contrlli V.lon.
Incidentally, when Andrew Morrlssey
came across with his statement about
W. H. Thompson not spending money fo.
the help of the candidates on the stato
ticket, there came baok the answer
straight and hot from one In a position
to know. It whs this:
"Morrlssey should huve no kick com
ing. He did not contribute 1 cent to the
campaign fund,"

"1 do not know what 'Washington would

bcrt W. Biggs, a prominent attorney of
Memphis, Tcnn., at tho banquet cele
brating the anniversary of Washington's
birth Klven nt the Onialin club, "'but

"But more than these," he continued,
"that which would concern him would

If It called for a financial sacrifice, and

"These things would he ponder and

Interest In public arhttrs, nnd not ttlut
the government whose Iltrht Im nhn.ie
around tho world as a beacon of ilherty,

that representative constitutional gov

Mr, Biggs declared that Washington
would declare that tho evils which, now
afflict us have been largely brought upon
us by ourselves nnd not by our system.
Rare nt Kleiillnn.
"Washington would not bo content with
thn solectlon of unfit officials to do thn

ngnt to recall them," he said. "1 rather
think that Washington would exercise thn

ho exercised when ho undertook to choose

sake of regularity.
"Indeed, he cautioned against partisan
spirit and factional organizations by
which, as ho said, the small bin artful
and enterprising minority would bo able
to secure and wield the power of govern

he lived today, would go out to tho poor

would be concerned, ho sold, with tho
government of cities and how grkft has

Tho speaker said Washington had cau

branch of the government upun another,
and If he were here today would have
much to say and do about tho legislative
brunch "absorbing greater powers to al
low a temporary majority of thn pcoplo
to throw off constitutional limitations,"
And he concluded, "What would Wash

Would he advocate the making of them
subservient to the public wish and umen

Nevfs Notes of Eilncnr.
EDGAH, Neb., Fob, S3.-(Speclal.)-An
Important business change has just oc
curred here. Dr. G. rt Woods has
bought the Edgar roller mills. Tho
consideration was a S40-acre farm tn Lin
coln county, Nebraska. The mills were
owned by J. E. Sentcny, who ran them
for two years, 1907-8, but not being a
miller himself, he found It a losing bust
lies, so he closed the mills and moved
away leaving the mills Idle the last four
years. The new owner. Dr. Woods, will
put tho mills In order and either lcaso
them or employ a competent miller.
