MARVELLOUS FIRE DANCES
The Pomp of Kingly Courts Are Incl
dental to Fireworks Spectacle.


Accustomed though he was to extrav-
his time. the powerful Egyptian Ar
baces would rub his eyes in wonder
could he now gaze upon the gorgeous
fetes shown in Pains Last Days of
Pompeii." which are in a measure sup
posed to be g. representation of the fes-
tivities OF his day. But 1t is long
lapse of time between the year of our
Lord. 70 and the present day. and some
marvellous improvements have been
made in the. interim. Thus Pain out
shines Arbaces in securing results" Il
the fete days of ancient Rome, the fire
dance Of Isis was one of the fore
most feast day festivities. In the COM
ing Pain Pompei1an spectacle this dance
or ballet as it is now called, is repro
duced with startling effects. Eight
handsome, shapely dancers, draped in
ecute the figures of the Pompeiian
dance completely enveloped in a furnace
of fire. Ingenious pyrotechnic devices
and battery of powerful electric stere-
OPTIONS are brought into play to Sc
cure the marvellous results shown, and
this particular ballet is said to be the
most beautiful and amazing ever seen
In an open-air or stage production.
Another attractive dance is the
.Greco-Roman ballet" by beautiful
Greek slaves. The costumes of these
and all other dances and ensembles OF
the New Pompeii are the finest money
could produce, and the entire gorgeous
spectacle from start to finish is a kalei-
descope Of brilliancy and novelty be-
yond description.
Pains Last Days of Pompeii'' may
be seen each evening next week at the
Keith tract near Potwin with a change
OF programme each day.

A SIMPLE CHANGE
Made . World Of Disference.

The Health Resort does not always
bring back health. but the Health Re-
sort and proper food make q pretty sure
combination.
Mrs. E. Kennett Springfield, Mo-.
writes:-"I was pronounced a consump-
tive and sent to Asheville, N. c., for my
health. I just could not eat without q
cup of coffee. and my stomach was in
such a condition that i could not drink
it. was almost in despair when the
landlady of my boarding house said that
il I would drink Postum Food Coffee,
would find it would take the place Of
coffee and agree with me. She made it
SO delicious that 1 enjoyed every meal
l ate. and gained in flesh and strength
SO rapidly that was able to come back
home and live.
give Postum more credit for my re-
turn to health than climate or anything
else. 1 am sending you this letter foi
the benefit of those who are having
hard time living, and I am sure that IL
they will use Postum. their lives will be
prolonged.

GATES Is RELENTLESS.
He Il Still Fighting the Plans Of Ar
thur StillwAl1

Kansas City, Mo-, Sept. H.-When the
application for the discharge of the re-
ceiver OF the Guardian Trust company
came up for hearing before Judge Amos
NJ. Thayer of the United States circuit
court, it developed that John w. Gates and
his associates had begun a fight to pre-
vent the restoration of the company to the
control of those stockholders identified
with Arthur E. Stilwell.
1t was the Gates contingent that ousted
Stilwell from the Kansas City-Pitsburg
presidency of the Kansas City, Pittsburg
and Gulf railway now the Kansas City
Southern, which Stilwell had built and
threw Its into the hands of a receiver. II
was also through the efforts of the Gates
people that Stilwell. over a year ago, was
ousted from the presidency of the Guar
dian Trust company. which he had organ
lied When Gates attorneys objected to
the application of Stilwen to have the
Guardian Trust receivers discharged they
did SO on the theory that Stilwells move
is intended to place the company in the
hands of his friends and eventually to
merge it with the United States and Mex
lied to promote the Kansas City, Mexico
and Orient road another property pro-
jected by Stilwell. This the Stlwell people
deny, saying that the affairs of the trust
company have progressed SO favorably that
it could now be conducted more ecOnOm-
ically without the receiver. The intention,
it is stated, is to eventually wind up the
affairs of the company.

AFTER POINTERS.
Judge Louis SulZbacher of Porto
Rico in Topeka.
Visits Supreme Court to Study
the Methods.
DON'T GO THERE NOW.
Says There Is No Opening for
Business Career.
Tells About the Political Cam
paign in Progress.

Judge Louis Sulzbacher, associate
Justice of the supreme court of Porto
Rico, was in Topeka Thursday, and Wis
tied the supreme court chambers to in
vestigate the system in vogue in Kan
sas Judge Sulzbacher's home Is in
Kansas City. and he was appointed to
the Porto Rican supreme bench by
President Mckinley. There are five Jus
tees, and they hold Office at the pleas
ure, of the president.
The Porto Rican system is somewhat
different from that in Kansas When
a case is appealed to the supreme court
the court decides definitely what the
Judgment shall be. There is no revers-
ing cases and sending them back for
another trial The supreme court passes
definitely upon them and that ends
them.
The justices in Porto Rico when in
court wear gowns with big sleeves and
wide lace. Lawyers in court have to
wear similar gowns without the wide
Lace

and the other two Americans. There

of the court is Spanish, and the GUS
iards who belong to the court are al
very learned men. In fact, the whole
country of Porto Rico is quite up tc

dusuious as any race that inhabits the
tropics. 1t is necessary, however, fol

IT wouldn't advise any American tt
