Polls Wonderland Theater

Whoever feels disappointed to-day over election results can find balm for their ruffled feelings at the Wonder land, It is a show fit to make a man or woman forget their troubles. Big houses are the rule and everyone ap- plauds and praises. The graceful girls who as the Three Sisters Merkel per- form the leading feature act, have won the enconiums of all who like to see finely staged and excellent acrobatic feats with wonderful examples of equilbristic skill Crimmins and Gore, who give another feature, "The Tele- phone Boy" make lots of fun in this very amusing skit. And a decided hit is that made by Wills and Loretta The Tramp and the Soubrette." To use hackneyed phrase, this act alone is worth the price of admission. James w. Reagan, the wonderful tenor; Wal ton and Doyle, "The Long and Short of It.; the Marinellos, the marvellous Sey- mours, the Donars and Tills, marion cites, complete the show. Prices, 10 and 20 cents; ladies in the afternoon, 10 cents. Bikes checked free.

ished and "experts" take up the work before anything else can be done.
 This is what the platform pronounce ed for the year. Now what did it fail to notice It forgot the everyday h. dian. It took no note of his needs or of what is the matter that he makes such slow progress, and in some cases is ac- tually going back. Right before their eyes are the Omahas and Winneba- goes, allotted nearly 20 years ago and neglected from that day to this, worse off to-day that before allotment Their 25 years of inaliention of their homes is about to expire, and the land-grab- bers are already around them watch ing for their prey as intently as the setter watches his game. We all know what fate is sure to befall his game, whatever it is, unless apopleXy over takes the hunter lying in wait behind, but it is not more certain to fall than are these poor neglected homestead CTS to be wiped out when their time arrives. Much such need is pressing everywhere among allottees. The eV- eryday Indian is not much cared for in these days. The schools are in the highest state and can always com mand attention. Their rare scholars are brought to Mohonk and we are al- ways delighted to see and hear them. But the poor allottee cannot come there and no one represents him. The higher education" even, is good with out doubt, for few. But, oh how few, compared with the many out on their allotment alone, looking into vacancy and wondering why the promised self support does not come to them!
 What a field for work is just now opening in the Indian territory! And how indifferent is the platform to the cry for help which is coming up from that territory. Of 64,000 Indians just now taking on the citizenship of a United States territory, and attempt ing to maintain a government in har- mony with those around it, full one half are living in the backwoods and in the mountains on little more than nuts and pigs, unable to speak or un- dersand a word of English. What field for benevolent and mission work is here opening I did so long to bring this great need to the attention of the conference, and it nainei me much that 1t escaped the sood men and Wo- men there assembled. I write this in all kindness, and with the highest ap- preciation of the good purposes which gave utterance to the platform. But I feel that there is need of it.-The Con- or aqa tionaIiSt

cool water before each shaking fever ish figure. That or a namelesss man with a revolver and a big bag of cart ridges would have seemed merciful. Where there was a shady bush four men had crawled to die; three had at tained their object, the fourth survived. He was shot through both legs, and the bullet-a Martini -Henry-had lodged in the right kneecap. Tullibard- inc examined his injury. Presently he pulled out his knife, and, after much probing and cutting, extracted the bullet with a buttonhook. Would you be further sickened with the horrows of the field. There was a man who had crawled mile in three days, but was yet two miles from the river. He had one foot; the other remained be- hind. I wonder if he ever reached the water he had struggled so hard to at tain. There was a man with both legs shattered. He had dragged him. self along in a sitting posture, making, perhaps, 400 yards a day. Another had reached the water and died at it's brim. Let us hope he had his drink llISl' All thlS was 'hlee u1ys al.eI tiio action. Yet on Sept. 9, when a week had passed, there were still a few wounded who had neither died nor crawled away, but continued to suffer. How they lived? The women and the disarmed population of Omdurman had been busy. Those who were from the country around Omdurman had succor from their relatives or neighbors. But it was bad for the man who had come from afar and had no friends. The women would, perhaps, spare him a few drops of water-enough to help him through the day-but if he were stranger they would do no more. Thus it was that these painful and shocking cases occurred.

MISS REHAN AS KATHERINE AT
 THE HYPERION


 MISS REHAN AS KATHERINE AT
 THE HYPERION.
 As Jefferson is as Rip Van Wrinkle and Booth was as Hamlet, so Ada Rehan is as Katherine, and as they are in these parts so Augustin is as a di- rector of plays. Such being the case nothing less than perfection in the pre- sentation of Shakespere's comedy, 'The Tanning of the Shrew," by Miss Rehan and the Daly company is to be ex- pected It has been well said that to see Ada Rehan act is like taste of old wine to connoisseur, and the sweet voice and saucy toss of the chin that went so far towards her first suc- cess are still in evidence and aid her in the artistic and finished portrayal of that part. ''The Tanning of the Shrew" will be given as the concluding per- formance of this engagement. The balance of the repertoire is "Cyrano de Bergerac" on Thursday evening and Saturday matinee and ''The Country Girl" and "Subtleties of Jealousy" on Friday. The advance sale of seats has been large for all the performances and seats are now on sale. Prices, $1, $1.50 and $2.

MOUNTAIN SICKNESS.

In recent lecture by Dr. Arthur Neve, in which he describes his travels in Kashmir and little Fiber some valu- able Information was given as to diffi- culty of breathing experienced by mountaineers at high attitudes. Dr. Neve states that he found that if more than eight or ten thousand feet is tra- versed in a day, the traveller is almost sure to suffer from mountain sickness; but if the ascent is made with greater delbaration no inconvenience is experi- enced. His party therefore made it a rule to encamp on their way towards mountain-top in order that they might get acclimatiZed, and they found that although the mercurial pressure was getting comparatively low their breathing maintained it's usual rate. So thoroughly did Dr. Neve get accus- toned to the rarefied air that at a height considerably over twenty thou sand feet he was able to take eighty paoes to the minute without feeling any untoward results from the exertion.- Chambers Journal

opinion, it is probable that sufficient amount of water can be retained in them to keep up respiration during the time the fish are out of the water. He has timed individuals, both in their natural condition and in the aquarium, and found that they would sit for more They would then walk slowly into the water, and go below the surface for second, come up and rest for brief space, and walk slowly out again on to the margin.
 Dr. Forbes has been very generous with the specimens not required for the Liverpool Museum. In December last he presented several to the Geological Gardens, but they did not thrive, and Tn a short time all died. He has quite re- gently sent another consignment, for which home has been found in a large tank in the new tortoise house These specimens are doing very well and it will be great advantage for naturalists to have an opportunity of watching these curious fish, which seem to be quite fearless and in no wise in commoded by the visitors who stream through the house. Their resemblance to tadpoles is exceedingly striking and their strange appearance is added to by their prominent eyes. which are better adapted for vision in air than in water, and, from their position, must com mand an extensive field in all direc- tions. They can be protruded and re- tracted, and, as the fish lies propped up by its pectoral fins, it often appears to wink at the spectator, with one eye or both. Dr. Forbes has, however, ex- rlair ed that what seems to De winking is the inversion of the eye into de- rrfssion immediately beneath, for the purpose of lubricating the organ when it iecomes dry.-Lond n Standard.

ROsENTHAI, THE PIANIST

Moritz Rosenthal, the Roumanian pianist, will give a recital at the Fly perion on Monday evening, November 2S. The Pail Mall Gazette says: His place is assuredly among the two or three consummate pianists now living. .. With his golden imagination, Ros- enthal played Schumann's Carnaval yesterday as we have never heard it played before .. It would be inl- possible to imagine anything more ar tistically fantastic than this interpreta- ton. He made this music live from beginning to end, not only as a series of separate little compositions, but as a complete and marvellous work of dramatic imaginativeness."

It has remained for "A Stranger in a Strange Land" to produce the Indian that could be made a feature of im- portance in a real up-to-date comedy. The company that will present "A Stranger in a Strange Land" at tte Hyperion next Monday evening, is the best that could be gotten together. The piece goes with spirit and dash, causing continual shouts of laughter at the many ludicrous situations which succeed each other from the rise to the fall of the curtain.
