Bring US your old disc records that
you have grown tired of (either Co
lumbia or VictOr), and we will eX
change them for the new Improved
Columbia Disc Records We will al
low you 80 cents for your 1O-inch
record and other sizes in proportion.
The new Improved Columbia Records
are of elegant workmanship and are
a decided advancement in the art of
record making. They have full,
sweet tone, and owing to the manner
in which they are made they have
less scratching tone; the needle seems
to run smoother on the record. We
also wish to introduce to your notice
the new Grand Opera Sound Box,
which is designed to obviate the
scratch of the needle and at the same
time retain the full volume of tone.
We will exchange the new Grand
Opera Sound Box for any of the old
style Columbia sound boxes now on
the market. Call at our wareroOms
and get our plan of exchange. We

BRIDGE MEASURE Is PASSED
New Pumping Station for West End
Funds Getting
Low.

Milk and money were the chief top
les for discussion before the meeting
of the city council last night. Tests
reported by the health commissioner
showed that several of the dealers
were selling an article that was below
the standard fixed by ordinance, and
the aldermen insisted that the law be
enforced. The ordinance provides
that milk placed on the market must
contain II per cent solids, 3 per cent
of which must be butter fat. Cream
offered for sale must contain Is per
cent butter fat. The tests showed
that the cream offered by those deal
ers of whom samples had been sccur-
ed by the health commissioner were
above the required grade. But the
milk, in several instances, was con-
siderably below grade. The report
submitted by the health commissioner
only gave figures. The aldermen
wanted a report that could be under
stood by anyone who could read, cut
out the scientific terms, and state
facts plainly. So the report was re-
ferred back to the health commits
sioner with instructions to bring in a
more lnIelll9tDle report
y statement read by the clerk gave
the balances in the various funds at
his disposal, making it apparent to
the aldermen that they would be
obliged to practice economy for the
remainder of the fiscal year. The
Milan bridge emergency ordinance au-
thorizing the borrowing Of $4,000 un-
til the next annual appropriation was
passed finally, thus insuring at least
a beginning of work long needed.
Aid. Kennedy, whose negative vote
prevented consideration of the meas
uTe at the former meeting, again OPP

urc carried 13 to l. Bridges No. 6 and
will be rebuilt this fall, and from
year to year thereafter other spans
will he replaced until the several
structures are rebuilt so that they
can be used by electric cars.
Need New Pumping Station.
y new pumping station is necessary
in the west end of the city to protect
that section during the high water
season. This VIII cost probably $4,000,
but there is no money to pay for it..
AS it is an improvement that cannot
be delayed for any length of time, n
report of the sewer committee asking
for bids was adopted.
Mayor McConQGhie volunteered the
cheering information that the city
would get a neat sum in taxes as Il
result of the work of the ferrets at

Burton Holmes, traveller. author
and lecturer, is soon to give his an
nual series of Illustrated travel
talks" at Music hall. Chicago. During
the past summer months he has trav-
eled many thousands of miles in
search of new material for his lee
lures, and has returned with mind
and cameras filled to overlooking with
the impressions of his journey. I'm
like any of his former series. the one
about to be given will consist of
American subjects exclusively, his re-
cent iOurneyings having been confined
to visits to the wonders of nature
found within the confines of the Uni
ted States. This all-American series
will be known under the comprchen-
sive title From Broadway to Boring
Sea-" a title which suggests infinite
variety, to say the least. Mr.. Holmes
is most enthusiastic over the photo
graphic results of his trip, having Sc
cured more than ample material for
his magnificently colored lantern
slides and moving panoramas, as well
as an unusually numerous series of
motion pictures, taken by him and
his assistant. Oscar Bennett Depue,
during these past months. The titles
of the individual lectures and the
dates upon which they will be given
in Chicago are as follows: 'The Yo-
semitic Valley: Natures Scenic Mas
terpiece.'' Oct. IA, IS. 16 and II; "The
Yellowstone National Park, the Won

One of the big features of ''The

lists from Paris, who introduce trick
hanson cab and trained mule that is
said to possess almost human intel
ligence. During the action the trio
perform numerous acrobatic feats in
which the mule assists and at the fin
ish the vehicle collapses, the whole

Hal Reid's latest success. "lxt Grip
pie Creek" will be produced here this
evening. Three hours of thrilling and
varied excitement are furnished by
this drama, teeming with the vicissi
tudes of Colorado life in the early
SOS. The Temple of David" den
of the vilest character, is shown in
the first act. 1t is rendezvous of Il
band of desperadoes headed by the
villainous Martin Mason. The vic
Tins of treachery and crime are fol-
lowed i'm breathless suspense until the
rescue by the undaunted Dynamite
Ann" aided by Joe Mayfield. The
daring of the Sioux, Waketah, who
swings out over a yawning canyon
and rescues Little Tattoo. is only par
alleled by the saving of Belle Gordon
by Joe Mayfield, the owner of the
Last Dollar" mine. Bright and
sparkling bits of comedy light up the
rough and homeless camp life.

''The Game Keeper" an Irish ro-

No country in the world possesses so
many elements of dramatic interest
as dear old Ireland, where the lines
between rich and poor, aristOcrat and
pauper, are more sharply drawn than
anywhere else on earth. DERRY Doc

from the pen of Con I. Murphy. THE
Game Keeper" is interviewer with di-
verse and characteristic threads of
human interest. Some of the stage
pictures portray the life of the Irish
aristOcracy, where high breeding and
wealth are doomed to intail the same
poignant SORROWS as in the homes of
the poor. Quite vein of comedy
runs through the plaY-genuine hui
NOR of scene and chara cter-which
the serious aims of the play necessi-
tate. The company engaged is one of
superior excellence.

a striking and beautiful example of
American chivalry is demonstrated in
can American Gentleman" which is
to be presented here Thursday. The
play is favored with that quality of
chivalry that makes an American
sometimes wonder of he is not follow
ing in the footsteps Of the knights of
old. The character of George Hath
away is as picturesque as medieval
knight, while Carina is as gentle and
sweet as the loveliest lady in any of
Tennyson's idyls. The fact that these
characters are shown in modern times
does not in the least mar their artis-
tic value. 1t rather shows that there
is as much real chivalry today as
when King Arthur gathered his
knights about his round table.
