yet seen at the Unique are displayed this
Lyceum-vaudevllIe.

James Callahan, in his representations Of
prominent men Of the past and present,
is the headliner at the Lyceum this week.
Mr.. Callahan played stock in Minneapolis
In the old Pence opera house days and
has many friends here. His impersona-
lions are carefully prepared and they are
artistic. In some Of them, notably that
Of Pope Leo Kill, the likeness is strik
Ing His Robert Emmett, Edwin Booth
and the Mtkado are all good. Lincoln is
the poorest of the group.
The best musical number on the pro-
gram Is the singing of Where Rolls the
Oregon" by Miss Tenie Murphy, the local
contralto. Miss Murphy's sweet voice and
fine enunciation make her performance
unusually pleasing.
For those who like the accordion
Frozini has real treat in his handling
OF that ordinarily unwieldy instrument
Even from those to whom this music does
not appeal his artistic manipulation and
his rendition Of classical as we'll as popu-
lar music compels praise.
Constantineau and Lawrence do an un-
| inspiring clog dance turn that is only
partially redeemed by a double inverted
dance novelty. Baby Hawkins is toe
clever to be childlike and not clever
| enough to be appreciated as grown
up" Washer Brothers, the boxing mid
gets,'' have a real three-round "go'' tina
might be made funny but is merely gro
tesque. Earle and Wilson do a musica
comedy act with some dialogue that wa
humorous before 1t was worn out an,
some that is really clever. Rose Lee lyle
sings soprano solo in a way that APP
peals to some people.

linson and one Of his men was wound
ed in the first volley. The rangers
gradually worked closer to the build
ing, and when near to it the sdesperat
does made dash for thicket. Garcia
Martinez was shot dead. Two others
FELL wounded, but succeeded in getting
into the ~underbrush. - :, - r.,
IS. Martinez, who was killed, is known
to have committed four murders in
Texas and several in Mexico, where

An Exception.

From the Minneapolis Ugeblad Danish.)
It may be accepted as rule that
when the American papers write OF
Scandinavian matters, they make mean
ingless nonsense out of it. This Is easy
to understand, as the internal cond1-
tions of the three northern Kingdoms in
national and political affairs and in Ian
guages, are of a rather complicated ma
ture, and for foreigner 1t might be
somewhat difficult to ascertain just
what is what. But the gross mistakes,
which are committed by the American
press in the simplest matters, such as
the capitals of the three Kingdoms,
ETC., are none the less objectionable,
as they are proof of a carelessness in
the treatment of such matters that casts
shadow over the article as a whole.
It is, therefore, worthy of special praise
that The Minneapolis Journal, one of
the most widely circulated and best
edited dailies in the northwest, has
formed conspicuous exception to the
rule by it's splendid treatment of the
Swedish Norwegian crisis. :
In the early summer the paper sent
its managing editor, Mr., w. B. Cham
berlain, to the Scandinavian peninsula
to write of the union crisis on the spot.
1t cannot be. denied that many scandi-
navians here in the northwest we,
no less than others--looked forward to
letters with expectations of a mess Of
misconceptions. For the conditions
from which the union crisis arose, are
supported by a historical background
which not every man is able to observe
from the correct viewpoint. It must be
said, however, that Mr.. Chamb erlain s
exposition Of the questions he was sent
to- Investigate has been accurate In a
high degree. It is a testimony to his
clear understanding Of the conditions
and his ability to master all details
which in a single moment has placed
the correspondent in very prominent
place in American journalism: But il
also gives proof that our home countries
can very well be correctly written abou
in the American press; and We hav'
hereafter greater right to demand i
than heretofore. MIR. Chamberlain ha
shown that it can be done.

unIoue-VaudevlIIe.

At the Unique theater this week some
of the liveliest and most entertaining
vaudeville Of the season is presented.
Attic sketches are apt to grow tire
some. the one presented by Jim Diamond
and Bonnie May is exceptional and sure
cure for that tired feeling. Both are ex-
perienced entertainers and their skit,
called "The Rehearsal Is replete with
catchy situations and good clean humor
The Peerless Harmonic Four" a male
quartet of ability, is well above the aver
an in that line Of entertaining. They
show good taste in their selections and
all have good voices
Little Mildred, an unusually sweet
singer presents catchy novelty called
"The Dream Of Japan" and Harold
Beckro, the regular ballad singer, makes
the usual hit in the illustrated songs. He
is assisted this week by Hermann LIE
Fleur. The dog and monkey circus will
not appear this week and the place will
be filed by a trained goat performance,
which is said to be tluch better.
Lew Nelson. who styles himself The
Merry Minstrel makes good in his black
face turn and sings some of the latest
hits. Some Of the best moving pictures

These are not matters for discussion at
woman's club, but questions that are
suggested by MRS. Temples Telegram"
which must leave man in painful doubt
as to whether it is better to lie expedi-
tiously and scientifically or not to lie
at all. --.s.. -- " -
Mrs. Temples Telegram was here
last season under the name Of Who's
Brown Then it was but a. short farce
and was preceded by a curtain raisers 1t
has come back heightened and elaborated
and with the stamp Of New York's en-
thusiastic approval, which 1t well = de-.
serves, for it is very clever play and
William Morris is a very clever actor.
He takes the role Of Frank Fuller-the
resourceful friend, whose ability to tell q
lie and tell a good one, keeps the Temple
household in state Of frenzied excite
ment-with a dry humor that is irres1st1-
BILE. It would be SO easy to make the
play boisterous or. common, but Mr.. Nor
ris has a keen sense of values and gives
each line only its true force
The story is one that any man can ap-
preciate. Thru an accident to the ma
chinery Jack Temple has been kept In a
Ferris wheel car, high in the air, over
night No wife would believe such a tale
and when Mrs. Temple refuses to give
credence to his story, he promptly 1nvents
one John Brown Of Elm avenue, Pickle

spent the night. Mrs. Temple, still credu-
he I'M, for a.
