Theatrical Notes

A lonely rock-bound haibor-a penin-
sula that breathes war and is dotted with
walled towns for which savage tribes
wrangled since before Christ-this is
Port Arthur on which the worlds eye has
been focused for two years. Steel-skinned
monsters hurting 13-inch shells across 1t
have superseded the war junks that GID
ed around its curved and jagged shores
for centuries. Nature here has been pro-
life indeed of natural fortihcations, it has
even been eXtravagant in setting con-
centric ranges of hills within each other
in a way that makes them self-support-
ing. Palpably the ingenuity of no human
engineer could conceive or devise a more
impresnable battlefield Add to this
network of human fortihcations extend
ing from sea TO sea, as elaborate and in
tricate as the mind can conceive, and the
other fact that here for the first time
were demonstrated all those terrible
agencies of war which the rapid advance
of science has made available only with
in the past twenty-five years, and the
reader may surmise the Importance and
interest Of the bewildering panorama af-

hibited by Lyman II. Howe and neither

When George Hobart saw Charles
Grapewin in Mr. Pipp he at once de-
clared that he was the most unique come
dian on the American stage and agreed
to write him new comedy for this sea-
son. The result is IT'S up to You, John
Henry" an American comedy with new
characters and new ideas from the be-
ginning to the end The part assumed by
Mr. Grapewin is that of a man of the
world addicted TO slang who butts into
society and horrihes them by lingo that
is foreign TO them Surprisingly funny
situations and comedy scenes result from
this well worked out plot and the result
! is that a succession OF laughs always
greets this play. Mr.. Grapewin is ably
supported by Anna Chance and a big
company including chorus who know
how to sing and dance. Frank Howe, Jr.,
lwho Is directing the tour of the company
has mounted the play in a sumptuous
manner and the new specialties and
music are delightfully."- done This attrac-
tion will come TO the Grand Opera House

create furore as Grapewin is big

The whole country embraces an

Quoting water and broken land there
is plenty Of wheat growing territory
to produce twenty times over the
requirements of Great Britain.
AS wheat can be grown at $3.50 per
acre with wages to the men doing
their own work besides, and as year
in and year out the yield and price
are twenty bushels at 60 cents, the
profits are $3.50 per acre.
AS live stock doubles every three
years and grows like wheat while the
farmer is sleeping, we expect that this
will always be one of the leading feat
ures of the agricultural industry. AS
the Pacific coast or warm winds melt

LAST DELAWARE PAYMENT.
Indian Agent Kelsey Begins to Make
Out Rolls,

Muskogee, |. r., July PA COM
mittee of the Delaware Indian citi.
zens visited the Union Indian agency
here and conferred with Indian Agent
Dana H. Kelsey relative to the Della
ware payment that is to be made soon.
Mr.. Kelsey will begin today to make
out the rolls to determine who are
entitled to share in the payment, and
the committee of Delawares will be
called in for conference occasionally.
The committee is composed of George
Bullette, Tulsa; John Young, Copan;
John Sarcoxie, Bartlesville; John H.
Sacorynue, White Oak, and Henry
Armstrong, Beedy's Bluff.
The payment about to be made to
the Delawares is the last they will
ever receive. There are something
over 1000 members of the tribe and
the payment amounts to $150,000.
The Delawares are the poorest In
dams in the territory, and perhaps in
the United States. They lost their
national entity when they sold their
valuable lands in Kansas and Mis-
souri, shortly after the civil war for
mere pittance, at the dictation of
INSCRIPTIONS leaders, and removed to
Indian Territory. Here they took up
their homes under the sovereignty of
the Cherokees, They have been given
allotments along with the other citi-
zens of the Cherokee nation, but have
no other resources. At one time the
Delawares were the richest Indians
in the United States.

JIMMY BRITT WINS.
Remains Championship Light weight Of
The World.

San Francisco, July a. - Jimmy
Britt is still the light weight cham
pion of the world. He was awarded
the decision over Kid Sullivan in a
twenty round contest in which Britt
was the bright and shining star. He
outpointed Sullivan in nearly every
round, and although he did not knock
out the husky young easterner, he
demonstrated beyond all doubt his SUI
periority. AS the referee said: 1t
was a stake horse against selling
platter"
Britt gave a marvellous exhibition
of scientific boxing. His generalship
was perfect and during the whole
time Sullivan never landed an effec.
tive blow. He did very little leading
and did most of his fighting in the
chinches when he would play his
right against Britt's ribs. Sullivan
made a number of futile attempts to
rush but Britt's clever foot work kept
him out of danger and straight left
to the nose would straighten Sullivan
up and stop his impetuosity. Britt
was very careful all through the fight
as he said: 'Why should with my
superiority mix it up with man like
Sullivan, who knows nothing except
roughing it? l am confident that |
am his master at the game, but l had
tno much at stake tO take a chance
Sullivan is a good hard fighter. but

THOUGHT NIT sIGEL."
Germans Will Gather in st. Louis In
Honor of His Memory.

Germans from all over the United
States will gather in st. Louis next
spring to honor the memory of Gen.
eral Franz Sigel, the dashing cavalry
leader who organized four regiments
of young Germans for the Federal
army in 1861, and saved Missouri"
for the Union. The statue, for which
$4,000 was subscribed by patriotic
citizens of st. Louis, will probably
stand in Forest park. 1t is the work
of Robert Cauer, German-American
sculptor of Berlin. Cauer went to st.
Louis last year and modelled the
facial likeness from original photo
graphs of General Sigel at the time
of the war. Sigel is shown at the
battle of Pea Ridge, scanning the APP
preaching enemy just before he made
the famous rally of his German
boys" and turned seeming rout into
a glorious victory for the boys in blue.
1t was to this engagement that the
famous humorous ditty, me Fought

, making winter feed as inexpensive as
summer pasturage.
AS $2,S35,516 worth of live stock
months of last year an idea may be
formed of the proportions it may be
led to attain when the country be-
comes fully settled up.
Darying is the third leading bust,
ness of the Northwest farmer, and
may, like the others be developed
while the farmer is sleeping. 1t is
found that on account of the cost OF
farm help, and to avert the expense OF
erecting suitable buildings for the
purpose, the cooperative system is
decidedly the best. Under it the en-
tire management is in the hands OF
the government under expert opera
tives, though control of sales, ETC.,
rests with the patrons. The farmers
simply deliver their milk or cream,
usually the latter, at the diaries, re-
ceive monthly advances, and bal
ances of proceeds of sales at the close
of the year.
The schools are free and non-denomi
national-national. There is no tax for
attendance, the government defrays
the greater part of the cost of sup
port of a highly certificated staff of
teachers. There are schools in all
country districts where there are a
dozen pupils to attend them and the
tax is rarely more than 81 a year on
every quarter section. AS each prov
ince-Alberta and Saskatchewan--un-
der the new provincial autonomy will
receive at the start from the Federal
government $1.1OO,OO0 a year, there
will be but very inconsiderable taxa
tion for any and all provincial pur-
poses.
Fuel is the bugbear of many of the
prairie countries. In Western Canada,
however, there are but few districts
without an ample supply of timber,
and as coal of the best quality is

dences Of advancement. The first
bushel of wheat was shipped in 1882,
in fact the first shipment from Mani
toba, merely as a sample, was made
in 1877. In 1904 there were under all
: crops, excepting hay, 1,575,000 acres
in the western provinces, producing
17,250,350 bushels of wheat. 18,250,6
bushels of oats, and 1880 APO bushels
of barley, realizing total Of about
$1S,5C0 eco for the farmers.
In Manitoba there were grown in
1904 100000 bushels of wheat and
other farm products in proportion.
The first mile of railway was built in
the country in 1880, and to-day there
are over 5000 miles of road in opera
ton, and further extensions are going
ahead as fast as men and money can
build them. There are two trunk
lines in the country, the G. P. r. and
the Canadian Northern, with the
Grand Trunk commencing its trans
continental line In addition to these
trunk lines, all systems are extending
branches to all sections where there
are settlements to patroniZe them.
The grain elevator development is
another assurance of the wonderful
expansion of the country, the one
fourth of the whole area, or about 95.-
100000 acres of the country traversed
by railways being now fairly supplied
by elevators. In all there are LOIS
of them in the country with a combin-
ed capacity of 27,6S3,O00 bushels and
erected at a cost of over $4,000, 900.
In addition to these, elevators at the
head of the lakes have storage capac-
lty of 100000. Fourteen years ago
the entire storage capacity of the
elevators was 7,62S,OO0 bushels. to-day
1t is Al 100000 and increasing yearly
from five to ten million bushels.
What the settlement of the country
will be in the next ten years may
well be imagined from the fact that
last year the immigration was over
133,00u souls.
There are those who believe the
grain-producing area of the country
must be limited, but results tell a
