VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.

VAUDEVILLE All THE JACQUES.
 Two large and thoroughly enthusi-
 astic audiences were present at the
 Jacques yesterday to enjoy Manager
 Polls latest bill, and they showed by their unceasing applause that 1t was to their liking Indeed, if- the favor
 accorded the show yesterday be an indication, 1t is in for. a good attend ance all the week. as result of the Iemphatic success it scored. The Five SSosses head the bill with genuinely Ebeautiful musical novelty entitled "A Night in Venice" 1t is in no sense comedy number, but is an artistic gem. The scenery, which Is section of the Grand canal in Venice and the cos- tunes, which are Strictly Venetian, give beautiful colorfng to the act, and the effect as they make their en- trance in a gondola playing the soft strains of an old Venetian air, with the moonbeams playing faTltastically in the, ripping waters, ist beautiful to a high degree. They play with great skill on stringed instruments, render ling selections from the old time operas that are familiar and carefully avoid ] any interruptions that would detraet 5 from the high artistic character of the act. The Mozart Comedy Four, singers
 and comedians, provides the great laughing number, closely followed by
 Ed Groh and company in m amusing
 comedietta entitled "Auntie's Visit"
 Professor Van Camp, a nimble-hnger- ! ed magician, has some illusions and tricks of magic that are as amusing as they are mystifying, and the Misses
 Lillian Tyce aud Irene Jermon intro
 duoe some lively songs in dialect and
 character Others on the bill are CartwelI and Harris, tue Great Spaul-
 ding and the electrograph. Prices
 are 10, 20 And 30 cents; afternoons 10
 and 20 cents, ladies 10.

KUROPATKIN'S REPORT
Gives Results of Various SKirmishes
 That Have Taken Place.

A St. Petersburg report says General Kuropatkin has telegraphed to the em- peror as follows:
 "A detachment of Russian cavalry, consisting of dragons, Cossacks and mounted chasseurs, with battery, on their way from Vanzalen were inform ed that two companies of the frontier guard were engaged with the enemy occupying a position near the village of YOndziatun. A portion of our caval- ry advanced toward Wafengkau, while two squadrons of dragoons were sent to support the frontier guard, and one company of chasseurs was sent to pro tect and reconnoiter on our right flank in the valley of Fuchau. After accom- plishing this mission the chasseurs and company of Cossacks formed the right flank of our position.
 Howard 1 o'clock the enemy began to debouch in considerable force from Lutsiatun with the object of attacking our advance line Two companies of Siberian Cossacks crossed the railway in front of the cavalry and attacked a squadron of the Japanese advance guard, almost entirely destroying it in hand to hand fight. They afterward encountered the fire of the Japanese infantry. Two squadrons of our cav airy and a battery of machine guns hurried up, and then retiring drew after them second squadron of Jap anese cavalry. This squadron followed until it came in contact with detach- ment of chasseurs, who succeeded in firing eight volleys at fixed range into the squadron, which then fell back, having suffered considerable loss.
 A Liaoyang dispatch says.
 "The throbbing of the whole great Manchurian war engine can be felt here. The town is animated, full of officers from all branches of the serv- ice. The real work is carried on in the second story of the railway station being the army headquarters. Tele- graph wires radiating in every direc- tion control the movements of the Rus sian forces throughout Manchuria.
 "A hundred yards up the track upon an isolated siding stands a military train shaded by a white tent. where General Kuropatkin makes his home and uses his movable headquarters for flying visits to outlying points"
 A St. Petersburg dispatch says:
 "The government has no advices of sortie having been made from Port Arthur by the Russian squadron, re- sulting in the sinking of four Japanese ships The increased reticence and in creased activity of the general staff might presage important developments from the seat of war. They neither affirm nor deny the report that General Baron Stakelberg is moving south"

vote. The, vicious voter, the man who does violence to the principle of liberty. is innocent compared with the college graduate, the intelligent citi- zen, who buys or pays for his vote. Until society sets its hand and face against the so-called successful pol- itician the bribers of voters, the iniq- uity will continue.' Here lies the danger of the foreign scum" becom- ing a noxious clement in American politics. Let me again quote this same consul, who says: ''The mean spirited attacks upon the Italians and Slavs is akin to the kind of rubbish we used to hear about the Irish away back in the forties and tifties. A time has come when the stone that the builders wanted to reject is become a strong part of the arch upon which the republic rests. Before the war of '7O-'71, Hans standing for his Ger man fatherland. had to apologize for being here. To-day the nation re- joices in the millions that came to 1t from the banks of the Liffey and the shannon, the Danube and the Rhine. Fifty years from now we will be say inp the same of those who come from the Volga and the Bay of Naples"
 To my mind We Americans, glorying in our national prosperity, as we have good cause to, for we certainly have eclipsed every nation in our national growth, nevertheless make the great mistake of assuming that our great ness is solely ofwhat has been for some years specialized as glo-Saxonism. Yet cursory glance at American his tory shows us that the foreigner was and is mighty potent factor i'll the upbuilding of the nation. If he is in- sane mendicant or andrchistic in his tendencies, by all means exclude him. But I cannot think that the vast ma jority are included in any of these three classes. If he comes to make an honest living. let him come, we can assimilate him as in the past and make of them just as good citizens as we did of the Irish and the Germans who, not so many years ago, were sup posed to bring in their wake all the dire disasters that would overthrow this great nation, but who neyerthe- less have proven their slanderers to be false prophets
 If the editor of the Republican, or for that matter of any other paper, has any convincing facts to show that foreign immigration in general is menace to the welfare of the country the undersigned will be glad to learn them. He is just now deeply inter ested in the question of foreign inn migration and if convinced that it would be a danger to the institutions of his native land would most gladly join any movement to stop it.

Save Your Typewriter Ribbons.

Don't throw away old, wornout type writer ribbons. This is the advice of a veteran stenographer in downtown office.
 "Old ribbons make the best ink in the world" he said. After one has been so badly worn that the keys make but a faint impression on the paper the cloth still contains enough coloring matter to make q pint of high grade ink. Take the ribbon and put it in jar containing about pint of cold wa ter. Let 1t stand there for three days, stirring it around once in awhile. The result will be better ink than you can buy for 25 cents pint.
 "The best of ink is used on typewrit- CT ribbons. It practically is indelible when used with the pen. Moreover, there is no sediment in it. Most inks are not solutions, as many persons think The coloring matter is simply held in suspension. In good inks this matter stays evenly distributed throughout the liquid. In the poor inks 1t sinks to the bottom, and you have a gummy deposit at the bottom of the we'll Black ribbons are always the most available for making ink in this fashion, as most persons object to using blue and purple inks" n New York Press

d. J. c., Seattle: There is a resi-
dent of Seattle who took out citizen
ship papers II years ago. Claims he
is a citizen of the United States, yet
receives a pension from the French
government. What we wish to know,
is he a citizen of the United States or
of France, and can he own property
here? Kindly answer in The Ranch
to settle an argument.-Answer In
order for an alien to become citi-
zen he must live in U. S. five years.
and: % Must, two years before TAX
ing out final papers declare his inten-
ton before some court to become
citizen; (2) Any time after living here
five years he may then file his final
papers, unless this is done he is not
a citizen. Sec. 33, Article II, of the
constitution of Washington, provides
that, the ownership of lands by aliens,
other than those who in good faith
have declared their intention to be-
come citizens of the u. S., is pro-
hibited in the state, except where &C

and all conveyances of lands hereafter
made to any alien directly, or in trust
for such alien, shall be void. The
supreme court has held that only the
state can take advantage of this pro-
vision, and that where an alien has
acquired property that the state could
take, the owner can transfer a good
title thereto to any person entitled
to hold it, if no proceedings have been
taken by the state for the purpose of
setting aside the deed to the alien.
| wish to call your attention to the
clause wherein it states that "the in
tention must be in good faith" and
the fact that though II years have
passed final papers have not been
applied for. l find no case where the
court has passed upon this particular
part; however, l am inclined to think
it would look at it in serious light to
your case.

Importance of the Tanning Mill.

ThreShing machines have attained
great perfection and in most instances
the seed is so thoroughly separated
from the straw and weeds that 1t is
fairly clean. But the intention OF
manufacturers of threshing machines
is to deliver to the farmer all the
grain, whether Shriveled or plump
Therefore the necessity OF having a
good tanning mill for preparing SEED
grain is not obviated. The cost OF
a first class mill is from SIT to $40,
according to the number OF screens
That is. if screens sufficient for wheat
and oats only are desired a mill
would not cost as much as though
a fellow required the whole number
which would clean all kinds of grain
If one of these seed purifiers by its
superior work delivers seed which In
crease the yield one bushel per acre,
we can easily figure by the number
of acres planted how quickly 1T Will
pay for itsen. The following figures
from Prof Zaxity, of the Ontario ex-
pertinent station, may cause that nall
formed intention of getting tanning
mill some time to crystalize into the
actual purchase of one. The results
set forth cover an experience OF three
wears. The wheat was the winter va
riety.
Wheat.-Large plump kernels yield
ed 42.1 bushels per acre. Small plump
kernels yielded 35 bushels per acre.
Shrunken kernels yielded AZ bushels
per acre
Barley. - Large plump kernels
Welded 1913 bushels per acre. Small
plump kernels yielded 5O.4 bushels
