A Plea for Theater Reforms.

To the Editor of The Journal.
If that new auditorium materializes
there should be a large and attractive
foyer in which the people may rest their
aching backs, between acts, without run
ming a gauntlet of stares from lobby loaf
ers. In the theaters where foyer is i'm
possible, we suggest to the managers, that
they invite the people to rise between
acts.
There should also be well lighted and
attended check closets lining the corridors
where for penny (not a quarter), the
women can relieve themselves Of the bur-
den Of their hats. There should be enough
Of these closets to prevent tiresome wait
ing and crowding.
We believe that the majority of the
theater-gofng public, as intelligent beings,
have ceased to be amused by the idiotic
buffoonery that in years agone was con-
fined to circuses.
When the theater managers of Minneap-
oils fail to get good houses they revenge
themselves by saying the people are not
musical and will not support a good thing.
Let them once furnish a good thing and
the people will go, at the reasonable prices
that obtain abroad. "a. ]. G.

who enjoys the distinction of being the
only judge who has written a play in his
judicial days, gives, in the Cornhill Maya
zine, an amusing account Of his daily ex-
periences as county court judge in Man
chester. One of his best stories relates
to feeble looking man. who was re-
buked for supporting ridiculous claim
made by his wife. IT tell you candidly
don't believe a word of your wifes

Affects the Market.

One phase Of the controversy raging
between rival interests In the North
ern Securities company is the uncer-
tainty 1t creates with regard to in
vestment values. One of the best
known foreign banking houses de-
clared this week that "it7 is hopeless
to expect European investors to have
anything to do with American secur-
tiles so long as our market was
threatened by disturbing announce
ments in connection with fresh suits
over the Northern Securities disman-
Element" And this same uncertainty
is likely to exist not alone on account
of the Northern Securities dissolution,
but the concentration Of railroad
properties in large groups, with the
consequent manipulation Of particular
roads and systems, makes stock In
J vestment an exceedingly risky thing

"uncle Dudley. OF "The Home PrIntery,"
Lake City, Mimi, Makes Bid for Fur-
Their Fame With Book of Western
lsketches With Roycrofty cover-stor-
les of Early Minnesota Days.

81 Uncle Dudley all the old timers know
who Uncle Dudley is, but for the new
timers it may be stated that he is NJ. C.
Russell of 1.-The Home Printery.' Lake
City, Minn.-Uncle Dudley has been max
ing Of his printery a sort Of home Roy
croft establishment. He has been writing,
setting the type Of, printing and binding
a book, and all evidently with much "joy
in his work. Z and now it is time for Others
to find joy in his work, for 1t is out Of
the printery and has a true Roycrofty
appearance with its flexible paper cover
and appropriate design.
Inside. however, there are no egotistical
phflosophizings for readers, but many
wholesome, unvarnished yarns of the days
when Minnesota was young and wild and
sturdy pioneers were beginning the pro-
cess Of tanning and educating her. Uncle
Dudley says in his WORD Preliminary
that the 'book makes no pretension, what
ever, to being a. book among books in the
literary world; this places it outside the
pale of criticism. It Is simply record
of little events experienced or observed
| by the writer, during the early times il
the interesting history of one Of the bes
states in the union.''

Coal Tar Poisons Must Go.

The seductive strawberry red that
goes in the Ice cream soda is prin-
cipally derived from that versatile
substance, coal tar. Many Of the vo-
luptuous havors that WOO the palate
in cheap soft drinks are no better
than they should bas and now all such
devices are coming under the ban Of
the state dairy and food department.
The authorities have known Of this
practice for years, but in occasional
small quantities these mineral dyes
do not work much injury, and very
little has been done with them. Lately
the favoring- extract people seem to
have been running amuck in their
greed for profits, ard many Of the
pure fruit havors" have hardly a
speaking acquaintance with the fruit
whose name they bear. Some Of these
flavors are so loaded with mineral
compounds that they are absolutely
injurious to health.
On the showing made by the state
chemist, it seems high time for the
department to step in and stop this
| traffic in slow poison. The health
| of children Is more important to the
state than profits to the soft-drinl
seller or dividends to the manufac
turer. The greatest regret is that pun
ishment cannot always be visited d.
rectly on the man who invents and
puts up such villainous compounds
The state line generally protects thes
| guilty parties from the Minnesota
laws, and the small dealer has to bea.
the brunt Of the crusade. This l
unequal and unjust; but. no matte
who pays the fines, this sale Of Goa
tar poisons to young children mus
be stopped. If it is not, we may lool
for a. generation Of anaemics and dys
peptics as a consequence.

souEAkY BOOTS BOTHERED SENATE

A pair Of squeaky boots invaded the
quiet Of the senate the other day. A good
natured senator from the northwest,
whose avoirdupois is great, wore them.
Every time he stepped there was noise.
Squeak, squeak, squeak, the new boots
sounded across the senate carpet in the
midst of Mr. Patterson's eloquent speech
on armor plate Step by step these boots
and their owner moved out into the rear
lobby, but Mr.. Patterson's voice did not
drown the sound until the glass doors had
closed on the senator's portly form. The
outcry there was so loud that frequenters
in the rear lobby paused to notice. AS
the senator hit the mosaic, he was as
audible as cartwheel needing OIL The
sounding boots disappeared down the cor
ridor and shut themselves up in a com
mittee room.

Kuropatkin appears to be the General
Mcclellan Of the orient. He seems to be
playing waiting game. His idea OF
success In war seems to be to make sure
of having preponderance OF numbers
and advantage in position, and a way out
of a tight place If he should happen to
get into one Furthermore. he has every
thing to gain, while the Japanese have
everything to lose by delay. The longer
the clash Of arms Is averted the better
the Russians will be prepared in the way
Of men, supplies and munitions.

DR.. Bracken informs The Journal
that he does not wish to be considered

on that commission will be promoted If

stood, Of course, that the commission shall
have the cooperation and assistance OF

department of the city, and the state de-
