The general idea is that two men

of the police commissioners. Judging

During the nineteen years of its
existence the Al G. Field Greater

novelty and magnificence of its first
part, and this year another stride
in the march of progress has been
taken. "The Evolution of Minstrel

part and the massive stage setting,
with three great stairways leading
down to the stage. with its elaborate
embellishments, represents the min

pleasure each season to his coming
and no doubt Monday night he will

Miss Viola Allen is to present "The
Winters Tale" one of the most de-
lghtful OF Shakespeare comedies,
al the Kentucky Monday, December
8. This will be Miss Aliens second
appearance in a Shakesperean role
since becoming a star, and second
appearance in Paducah. Encouraged
by her truly fine success as Viola
in Twelfth Night" last sea-

further inroad into the classics.
"The Winters Tale" was not put
on till four years ago when It prov

reason, very likely. for its infrequent
production in America is that the

We are carrying things otherwise in

ing phrases for the purpose. AS has
been said, we are still sensitive TO
such coarse words as thief" and
"steal," but it is vain to deny among
ourselves that certain unchallenged
doings of to-day forcibly suggest those
terms. So we save our face with an
indulgent gayety, not devoid OF humor.
We give a twist and turn to the
rapidly changing English language,
and the ugly words disappear in the
process. When a conductor steals
fare we jocularly remark that he is
knocking down on the company

many people did not feel that the

want Now, these expressions and
others like them may bear strong
resemblance to thieves slang, but they
merely reflect the language of the peo-
pie unconsciously retreating to lower

conjectures with which professional
Wall street INDUCED itself to-day,
over the hidden significance of the
which has been the mystery in the
market now for many days. The fav-
orite hypothesis at the outset to-day
was that the accumulation was in. the
interest of the st. Paul interests and
it was asserted, with every appear
ance of conviction, that an official
statement would shortly be forthcom-
ing from the St. Paul authorities that
they had secured 100000 shares of
Union Pacific. 1t is a matter of COM
mon notoriety, also, that relations be-
tween st. Paul and Union Pacific in
the interchange of traffic and of COM
mon ownership of stock are already
close.
But the assumption that self-protec-
ton necessitates such action by st.
Paul preSumeS a similar necessity on
the part of all the Pacific and trans
continental railroad systems for a con-
troll of through facilities from a trunk
line terminus to the Pacific coast.

Hence the rise in st. Paul was log

Illustrated in st. Paurs supposed pur-
chases of Union Pacific. One varia-

Other factors had only a small in

1t is estimated that the people of
the United States drink 10000 100000
gallons of coffee in the course of a
year, at a cost of about 10 cents per
gallon. The importing cost of the requi-
site quantity of coffee berries for this
supply, at cents a pound, Is about
SIS, 900, 900. From this IL appears that
preparation, package distribution and
dealers profits make the price TO the
consumer about. double the importing
cost.
Coffee prices for the coming year
are likely to be nearly IL not quite
double those Of the last year or two,
as a result Of legitimate commercial
conditions, and may even exceed that
as a result of speculation. The high
