1t is a play replete with long speech
es and therefore required the best kind
Of work to prevent the interest of the
audience from tagging. Mr.. Young and
his company were not equal to the re-
quirements of the piece.

pose to Take Radical Step Next
Sunday Night TO Stop Practice.

Street crowds-loafers Is a better
name-are causing no end OF trouble
to the police every Sunday night. The
favorite stamping ground Is between
Washburn and Jackson streets on Main
avenue. Last Sunday night one young
man was arrested and fined 50. But the
example seemed to have no effect.
Last night Patrolman Tom Jones was
kept busy in moving the loiterers. The
gender of the nuisance Is largely fem
mime; this makes arrest the more dis
tasteful to the police but next Sunday
night radical steps will be taken.

Kansas City

Kansas City. oct THE Priests of
Pallas parade last night was witnessed
by enormous thrOngS, fully as large as
any previous year. The crowd is es-
timated at 10000. Both Walnut and
Main streets were Illuminated with
electricity this year, Walnut street
merchants spendinas1 500 for arches and
cordonS of light and Main street mer-
chants $1,O0 The floats of the Priests
of Pallas were 20 in number.
Each float last night was an idea it.
self 1T didn't depend upon the float
before 1T or the float behind it to trans
late its story. lit didn't require any in
terpreter to give the crowd the ideas
either.
The floats it might be added, were
the most costly ever seen in similar
parade in America The illumination
of the business streets with cOlOred in
candescent globes added much to the
beauty Of the spectacle Each of the 20
floats was preceded by a band of mu-
sic, and surrounded by horsemen in
glittering armor and bright robed
torch bearers.
Main and Walnut streets were a
blaze Of red, yellow and green lights.
Llgzag festOOns of many cOlOred lights
were draped across these two streets
for many blocks Most of the bust
ness houses had made special ilumina-
tons for the night events. Innumera-
bic arc lamps threw a Hood OF light
over the great pageant One Of the
most notable illuminations along the
route Of the parade was that of the
LAclAASeAS lily Gas COMPANY a. A-AA-At
and Walnut streets, where scores of
globes We're grouped in graceful arches
along the sides of the company offices
while a brilliant line of light encircled
the entire building on two sides.
The triumphal arch erected at the
corner of Ninth and Grand was illumi-
mated for the first time and presented
a most beautiful appearance. Kansas
City has always been neglectful Of the
feature of iuuminations until this
year but the results which have been
achieved by the expenditure of a com
paratively small amount of money
have assured the continuance of this
feature hereafter on a much larger
scale.
