Then, too, Japan may have hand

just how important the great Trans
Siberian railway is going to prove in
the Russo-Japanese squabble is a
question that is receiving more atten-
ton from railroad men than any other
the situation brings forth.
The great railway which reaches
from Warsaw and st. Petersburg to
Vladivostock and Port Arthur is 5000
miles in length and has cost $3.50, OOO,.
O0O 1t 10 only q single track road
Built apparently to spread Russia's
commercial wealth, it was in reality
conceived for war purposes.
Over this railway in case of war,
thousands upon thousands of tons of
supplies of every description will be
rushed to the cars troops in the far
east. Ordinary traffic will be stopped
to permit tho rushing of war supplies.
Can a single-track road perform the
duty such a contingency demands, is
the question that railroad men are
asking themselves. Apparently not.
1t is probable that blockade will re-
suit when the trains bearing supplies
are sent rushing toward Port Arthur
and Vladivostock
Experiences in this country have
proved conclusively that single-track
road can scarcely handle the routine
work imposed by trade conditions, let
alone take care of rush orders.

The ''Mystic Midgets" will be the

For the past two weeks the little
midgets of the city have been prattic-
ing hard their parts, and at the re-
hearsal today they did very well.
Every place this production has been
put on it has been greeted with the
loudest praise and all have spoken very
well of it. 1t is fairy cantata with
sweet songs, ludicrous situations, ele-
CANT costumes and clever marching.
Some of the prettest and best little
girls and boys in the city are taking
part. One of the most interesting
features will be the Queen LOUIS ga
Vote. The cast is made up of well
known young society people. Miss
Mabie Chapman takes the part of
the queen, Titania, and her companion,
Psyche, will be taken by Miss Leah
Walton. Prince Obdillous, who mar
shals the subjects from every nation
in the world, will be impersonated by
Miss Alice Newton. Miss Louise
Michael will appear as Uglio, the ogre,
leader of the gnomes.

A BOTTLE 0F: TROUBLE!

He did not know how to get rid of
ture in the air, intended to intimate
that. while their efforts had afforded
the keenest pleasure to the company
generally, they were unwilling to mo-
nopolize them any longer. and the ar
lists were at liberty to retire.
Perhaps there Is no art more liable
to misconstruction than pantomime
certainly Ventimore's efforts in this
direction were misunderstood, for the
music became wilder, louder more ag-
gressively and abominably out OF
tune, and then a worse thing hap
pened.
For the curtains separated. and
heralded by sharp yelps from the
performers. q female figure foated In
to the hall and began to dance with
slow and sinuous grace.
Her beauty. though of a pronounced
oriental type, was unmistakable, even
in the subdued light which fell on
her; her diaphanous robe indicated q
faultless form; her dark tresses were
braided with sequins; she had the
long, lustrous eyes. tho dusky cheeks
artiflcially whitened and the fixed
scarlet smile Of the eastern dancing
girl Of all time.
And she paced the floor with her
twinkling feet, writhing and undulat-
ing like some beautiful cobra, while
the players worked themselves UP to
yet higher and higher stages OF
frenzy.
Ventimore, as he sat there looking
helplessly on. felt q return of his re-
sentiment against tho Jinnee. 1t was
really too bad of him: he ought at
his age, to have known better.
Not that there was anything OBJ
jectionable in the performance itself,
but still 1t was not the kind Of eifter-
talnment for such an occasion. Hor-
ace wished now he had mentioned to
he expected. and then perhaps even
the Jinnes would have exercised more
tact In his arrangements.
