sNlaiSfefs' broker takes his loss philosophically, and charges it up to profit and loss on his ledger, but the minister cannot look at it in the same light, and complains because his clerical brothers in other parts of the city have not been molested. Not that he would have the highwaymen do unto others as they have unto him. but he would like them to do unto him as they have unto others of his profession, let him and his alone.
 This is asking more discrimination from the gentlemen of the jimmy and dark lantern than should be expected. History does not record many instances of discrimination from the thieves pro fession excepting that suggested by a reward for his labor. He cracks the locks or the heads of any and all from whom he may expect to get gold in sufficient quantities to repay him for his trouble, and the high salaried Hyde Park ministers are his shining mark.
 The residents of the Hyde Park dis trict are cIamoring loudly for more efficient police. They want a wide awake man with a billy on every cor ner. In this, however, they are ask ing too much. for how do they expect the ordinary policeman, and Chicago policemen are of the ordinary kind, to remain long on a beat that has neither saloon or peanut stand.

 sides of the buildings and every vacant lot is decorated, the city proclaims it's need of little pin money and steps into the field with proposition that is eagerly accepted by the advertiser.
 Some economical official in the de- partment of street cleaning evolved the labor and cash saving system of mak- ing every man his own garbage coi- lector. He desired the citizens to as sist in keeping the streets clean by de- posting his waste paper in specially prepared box, conveniently located on each and every street corner of the downtown district instead of in the streets. One of these boxes was at one time found to contain three pieces of newspaper and banana peeling. The idea was at once voted a success, and an appropriation for more boxes was asked for. But the city finances were low and the appropriation was not available. Then the economical official again came forward with proposition to procure the boxes and pay for them by selling advertising space on the top and sides. His ideas were approved, the boxes procured, and the space sold No one has ever again been caught desecrating the boxes by depositing waste paper or garbage in them, but they are profitable advertising medi- um, it is said, and the space sells read fly. And then you know Chicago needs cash.
 The bill posters and sign painters say they would rather have the real estate boards opposition than the city's competition.

WAS A GREAT SUCCESS.
The Presentation of Make Way Tor sh'
Ladies at the Hyperion Last Night

| The Presentation of Make Way for the
! Ladies' at the Hyperion Last Night
new farce was exploited at the Hy-
| perlon theater last evening, and exploit
| ed successfully. Charles Frohman seems
| to have another success equal to "The
Girl from Maxim's" in Make Way for
the Ladies'" The audience-a large one
was Enthusiastically pleased. 1t mani
tested approval frequently and enthusi-
astically. OF course the new piece had
the advantage of an unusually strong
cast, comprising Fritz Williams, e. M.
Holland, May Robson, Esther Tittell,
Marie Derickson, Nellie Butler and Eric
Hope. 1t was well known that the last
named actor is the Earl of Yarmouth
and that the occasion marked his first
appearance ON the professional stage.
His entrance in the opening act was the
signal for a demonstration, the Yale
men in the front rows leading, Before
the act was over he had convinced the
audience that he had the right to be re-
garded seriously and for the rest of the
evening he was extended cordial recog
milton at every opportunity. The earl
has good stage presence, has fine
voice and undoubted dramatic attain
ments.
The farce itself is full of the laugh
sit Ilo pp1U
lie dramatist can devise. They all orig
mate in the efforts Of a fin-de-secle wo
man to carry out her advanced ideas in
her family and home. She tries to train
her daughter to be insensible to the adj
Vances Of the other sex, however re-
spectful these advances, incidentally,
she imposes some of her theories on her
husband and he Wanders from his own
fireside. Finally, when everybody seems
at cross purposes and the tangle seems
beyond unravelling, the dramatist gives
one of those dexterous French twists,
and the thread Is straight and smooth
again. Miss Robson never had a better
part, and she shows an appreciation Of
this fact; and Mr.. Williams and Mr.
Holland are in their respective elements.

possible to offer a few real

low a price as the imitation
sells for generally. The

themselves on a price basis,
will also win attention by
reason of the designs shown.

will be no more obtainable at

While patriotic hearts approved,

Who wonders that we've had fog.

Please hurry up and also prove

Quick! dig the hole that it may fill.

Because the fagpole don't appear.

ting out the Columbia team by a score
of 20 to O..
The weather during the afternoon
was glorious. In fact 1t could not have
been improved upon and the conditions
We're perfect for a game. Fully $4,000
persons witnessed the contest. OF these
1000 passed through the several en-
frances and crowded the stands and
bleachers. The remainder were pack
ed like sardines on the big viaduct and

and reechoed from the field below
The red and white of Cornell was
more plentifully distributed than the
Columbia colors, but the crowds seemed
to be equally divided in their allegiance
to the rival teams.
When Cornell scored the first touch
down ana kicked a goal the Ithacan
sympathizers broke loose and the wav-
ing mass of red and white flags and
ribbon extended over some forty acres
of northern Gotham.
Columbia was very much crippled
shortly after the opening of the game
by losing the services of Wright at
right guard who was disqualified for
smuggling. A few minutes later Captain
Wilson was forced to retire, and soon
afterwards Cornell scored, Walbridge
running and lodging for forty yards
through Columbias players and plant
ing the ball behind the line Young
kicked the goal and Cornell scored six
points.
The remainder of the first half was
not productive of any further scores
and during the intermission between
the halves the Cornelites treated the
spectators to a series of evolutions,
which began with a cake walk and
wound up with a war dance.
The second half was full of good plays
and hard work in which Columbia was
at times unfortunate. Cornell was al
ways the stronger and with two more
touchdowns and subsequent goals in
addition to a place kick by Young,
twenty-three points were added to Cor
nelPs score. AT the end of the game,
Columbia had failed to tally point and
the contest ended in Cornell's favor
with total of 30 points to nothing. The
