"A Millionaire Tramp. :"

Several years ago young man IN
small Ohio town conceived the idea
of adopting the theatrical profession;
he did so, and was successful; he was
engaged to marry girl at his own
home. One June day, when the
flowers, the trees and even the air
breathed of love. he came for her,
but her parents, descendants OF the
grim old Puritanic stock that burned
poor helpless old women at the stake
through ignorant superstition, refused
to allow their daughter to marry an
actor. They had naught against the
man, but would not brook his pre-
fession; the same Implying relent-
lessness that steadied the torch IN
their forefathers' hands, caused them
to light the fires to funeral pyre of
the young couples hearts. Hot
blooded and impulsive the young man
threw everything to the winds and
took to drink. Soon it had gained
such a hold on him that he was un-
able to retain an engagement with
company. The pace few faster until
one morning he awoke to find himself
a tramp. Drifting about from place
to place he one day landed in
small Indiana town. There was
little repertoire company billed there
that night. They were short an actor,
so he was dressed up and put on for
the part. His first entrance brought
him face to face with the leading
lady. his oyd sweetheart. Around this
pretty story Lawrence Russell has
woven one of the cleverest plays in
A Millionaire Tramp that has
ever graced the stage, and Elmer
Walters magnificent production of it
makes the play delightful oasis in
the dreary desert Of modern theatre
cal conventionalities. At the Cen
nett theater Friday night.

Important One.
Without a word the Irishman took
out his pocket handkerchief and wiped
away the offending liquid that had
oozed from his package.
The Important One gathered his
overcoat about him and sat uncom-
fortably on the edge of the seat with
out any recognition OF the courtesy
Of the Celt, while the other commuters
watched the performance.

course of the remainder Of the herd,
which now broke away to the right,
paralleling the course of the stream
and leaving the wagons of the hunters
behind them and at their left. The
herd carried now upon it's flank three
figures which clung alongside and
poured sharp blue jets of smoke into
the swirling cloud of ashy dust.
Al such range it was out Of the ques-
ton to miss. Franklin and Batter
sleigh killed two buffaloes each, losing
other head by reason Of delivering
their fire too high up in the body. a
common fault with the beginner on
bison. Curly ran alonside good COW,
and at the third shot was able to see
the great creature stumble and fall.
Yet another he killed before his revol-

sudden and all too complete.

bodies lying PROSTATE along the
ground before them, and felt remorse
at their intemperance.

the horses were fastened securely as

Franklin stepped boldly out from the

Indian took his hand without a smile,
and with a look which Franklin felt
go through him. At last the chief
grunted out something. and, dismount-

refusalS are not common. The perse-

commands her to follow him with all

The Indians came on, close up to the
barricade. where they saw the muzzles
of four rifles following them steadily,
a sight which to them carried GER
tain significance. The mngling.
shifting line, obedient to some loud
word OF command, swept up nepr to
the front Of the barricsde, then came
to sudden halt with half the fore
feet off the ground. The ponies
shuffled and fidgeted, and the men still
yelled and called out unintellgible
sounds, but the line halted. 1t parted,
and there rode forward an imposing
figure.
Gigantic. savage, stern. clad in the
barbaric finery OF his race. his body
nearly nude, his legs and his little
feet covered with bead-laden buskskfn,
his head surmounted with horned
war bonnet whose eagle plumes
trailed down the pony's side almost to
the ground, this Indian headman made

Immediately to be despised. He sat

bile as statue, such was the dignity
of his carriage, such the stroke Of his
untamed eye, that each man behind
the barricade sank lower and gripped
his gun more tightly. This was per-

or ill-advised contempt.

Education in EXPRESSION.

Every person has an inborn desire

ed to only by children or savages.
Adults school themselves in repres-

Mrs. Stebbins in the New York Tri-
bune.
She went on to explain that when
persons thrill and vibrate to the
sound of grand music, or at the sight
of a superb picture, it Is the re:
sponse of the soul to beauty. Mrs
Stebbins advocated the study of the
technique of expression as channel
through which it becomes possible to
give out impressions. Expression, to
her mind, is to be a largely deter.

Benefit Of Wide Tires,

At an experiment station 1t was
demonstrated that it requires 40 per
cent more power to draw a load on
wagon with one and one-half inch tires
than on one with threeinch tire.
With a Baldwin dynamometer careful
tests were made with loaded wagons
drawn over blue grass sward. In a
wagon Weighing 900 pounds it was
found that load Weighing 3,24S
pounds could be drawn on wide tires
with the same force required to move
1000 pounds on narrow tires. More
over, the wide tires did not injure the
turf, while the narrow ones cut
through 1t.
