WagenhaIs & Kempker's lavish
scenic production of alexander the
Great" with Louis James and Freder-
lex Warde in the leading roles, is the
interesting announcements for next
Wednesday evening at the Illinois
theatre. The new play is the work of
Rupert Hughes and Collin Kemper,
and is said to provide Mr.. James and
Mr.. Warde with every opportunity for
the exercise of their respective tai

have given the play massive, spec

Of the story and the wealth of Incl

markable as an Illustration of the
great improvements made in cleo
trical appliances which, in recent years
have done so much for stage realism.
There are effects in alexander the
Great" such as the blizzard and cleo
trical storm when the army is en-
camped among the mountain tops,
that would be impossible but for the
aid of electricity. The electrical eff
fects alone for this new play. are
said to represent an investment. of
as much money as would have paid
for a respectable production in its
entirety a few years ago. There are
other and more important embellish-
ments which are necessary for sue
cessful spectacular drama however,
and in alexander the Great" this will
be noted in the beauty of its scenery,
painted by Alexander Corbett, in the
gorgeous costumes designed by Ed
ward Seidle and in the incidental mu-
sic composed by Luscome Lurelle.
McCoy's hilarious sufficiency, Ma
loney's Wedding" comes to the Hill

made at dramatic consistency and the

ly as a vehicle for the conveyance of
large quantities of fun and amuse-

ing to the type designated as musical
comedy, and its pleasing ensembles,

commend it as something more than

the evening. Majors Brock and
Wilson were pleasant visitors and
both made excellent speeches upon
subjects suitable for the occasion.
We were also impressed with the
idea that the negro must get closer
to the Cross of Jesus. That is his
great salvation. And while the
problem is so eagerly being dis
cussed and everything seems to be
against him, the great Jehovah
that whipped away the dark
shadows of slavery still reigns up
on His throne and proclaims that
Justice shall be met outright.
Mayor Brock said (the same being
emphasized by Rev. Osborne) that
prayer and upright living will be
the key that will solve the negro
problem.

Last Saturday the committee on
public buildings at Washington re-
ported favorably on bill carrying
with it an appropriation of $35 900 for
a new federal building at Moberly.
There is little doubt that the bill
will become law this session, as the
committees recommendations are
nearly always accepted as final.
This action comes two years sooner
than expected. AS no one here
thought of the matter being taken
up before the next congress. The
bill includes the same amount, $685.
600 for a building at Moberly, while
that at Louisiana is increased from
$35, 900 to $4,000 st. Joseph's build
ing will cost $500, 900, 100000 is to be
spent in improvements in one at
Kansas City, while st. Louis will
have one not to exceed 100000. The
bill will doubtless become law this
