Jacques
VAUDEVILLE.

If ever there was completely pug zled audience it was that which at- tended the matinee performance at the Jacques this afternoon when the prize mystery solvers had their in- ninss trying to find out how "Dida," the featured illusion, was performed. It is the first time the act has ever been seen here and as it proved a con sistent mystifier wherever presented on the other houses on the Poli circuit, it is not surprising that the blase first afternooners were not able to get to the bottom of the trick. So little time is used in changing an empty glass tank of water into a mermaid's parlor with a beautiful half-fish woman floating about in it that the impression made on the watchers beyond the foot lights was little short of wonderful. There is nothing cheap about "Dida." The idea is splendidly thought out and its application is perfect. Aside from LAC U lto'SlL "ulIA ID OL course of primary importance, the act is, a beautiful one, the light effects are superb and the mermaids remarkably attractive in point of looks. The other numbers on the bill are well up to the standard set by "Dida" and the entire program made an indubitable hit. Hooked by Crook" the comedy skit written for Homer Mason and Mar guerite Keeler by Gelett Burgess. put the audience in good humor instantly the action began, with the skill of the players and the brightness of the piece. Mir Mason turned the theater into a miniature cyclone so great was the applause with which his famous truck piano playing was greeted. Irene Jermon and Lillian Tyce repeat their former success and the numbers contributed, by Thomas and Payne, Frank Young and Kathleen DeVoie, Morton Tyrell and Morton and Krouch and Richards rounded out the pro- gram in a manner that left nothing to be desired. Prices are 10. 20 and 30 cents; afternoons, 10 and 20 cents; ladies 10 cents.

CHAUNCEY oLCOTT.

Chauncey Olcott, the romantic and sweet singer will present his new play at Polls tomorrow evening. It is en- titled Edmund Burke,' was made by Theodore Burt Sayre and is produced under the special direction of Augus- tus Pitou. The title part gives MT Olcott strong opportunity for both power and comedy Mir Olcott has established himself so firmly in the hearts of the theater-going public that little need be said of him personally, except that in his new character he will present bouquet of new songs in the same exquisite manner that he presented his selections in the past. There is no question but what this most clever actor lies very near the hearts of the people. The scenes of the play are laid in London in 1750, and the production will be worthy of it's predecessors. Mir Olcott has writ ten and composed four new songs for the play. The titles are: You Can Sail in My Boat" The Little Birds Story" Miss Mary" and "Your Heart Alone Must Tell" Prices are 25, 50, 75c, $1.O0 and $1.50.

Increased Demand for Light

The development of any new illumi- hating process appears not to affect the demand for light in other forms The electric light, both arc and incan- descent, has been added to gas rather than substituted for 1t. More gas mas been burned in proportion to the population of American cities, since Brush and Edison made their discoy- cries than formerly. The use of oil for lamps increases. notwithstanding gas, electricity, acetylene gas and de- vices such as the incandescent burner, which produce far more light with a given quantity of Illuminating fluid Cleveland Leader.

startling one, when the great agita- tion for just such a move is taken into consideration, but nevertheless it is true. Despite the fact that politicians from the southern territory have gone to the national capital and made their cries heard above the clamor for other legislation, there is weak voice, evil dent in New Mexico, which whispers, "No." And the American population of the district is the owner of that voice. Though politicians claim it is for New Mexico that the move is be- ing made, 1t is essentially for the Mexicans of the territory.
 There are so few Americans in the district that the few who reside there have declared their intention of fight ing statehood until the territory be- comes Americanized and Mexican rule ceases. For strange as it may seem everything in New Mexico is under the direct jurisdiction of Mexicans. As these people are in the majority and as they desire statehood, the cry for unionizing New Mexico has been strong. No territory was ever more aptly named. New Mexico is simply a small edition of Old Mexico in every sense of the word.
 There is hardly county in the en- tire district that is not governed by Mexicans. Every official in a number of the counties is Mexican and though the American flag invariably flies over the court house. 1t might just as well be supplanted by the colors of Mexico, for all the significance which it bears. Spanish is the only recog- nized tongue and all court conversa- tion must be carried on with the aid of an interpreter. Few of the officials understand the English language and 1t is most impossible to secure favor able answer to a query when convers- ing with the natives.
 Dispatches from a Mesilla valley town have brought district attorney from Mexican oblivion into ill-scented fame because of his unlawful acts. He has assassinated four men and at- tempted to kill four more. He has been tried once and in that instance he was acquitted on the self-defense plea.

TYPE OF MEXICAN HOME.

His name is the terror of the com. munity. At one time a young Ameri- can, whose life had been threatened by this menace to law and order, ap- piled to the proper authorities at Santa Fe. But even the high officials at the very capital of the territory were afraid to proceed against him, so far-reaching had his fame for out lawry extended.
 And then, is it any wonder that the battle over the statehood of New Mex. leo. the most unAmerican part of the United States is waxing warm7 Let the statesmen who would see New Mexico a certified state look over the subject of the contention first and then tell whether such a move would benefit it or Americanize it in any way. If statehood were given the district. nearly every oficial in the state service would be Mexican Wise brains in the execution of national sf- fairs are advising a wait until the ter ritory shall deserve the name of an American state

sia we take over part of the Man churian railway, but that is Japan's only railroad interest in China so far as I know"
 Referring to the recent rioting in Tokyo, Baron Kaneko said:
 While personally I have received no dispatches on the subject, am as sured the rioting which occurred was only spontaneous upheaval of senti- ment due to a misunderstanding of the situation as to the treaty concluded at Portsmouth. Now that a correct un- derstanding of the situation is becom- ing general the trouble has disappear ed. There is no anti-American senti- ment in Japan.

Visits the President For 2
 Farewell Chat.
TAXES A WALK IN THE WOODS
With the Chief Executive the Baron RambIes About For Two Hours. Our Relations With Japan
 Sustained, He Says.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y., Sept 11.-Bar- on Kaneko, the special commercial en- voy of Japan to the United States, spent three hours yesterday with Pres ident Roosevelt Throughout the re cent peace negotiations Baron Kaneko maintained the closest relations with the president, acting as an interme- diary between the Japanese govern ment and Baron Komura and the pres ident. It can be said that Baron ko- mura trusted him as he trusted nobody else.
 Baron Kaneko arrived on the 1920 D. m. train from New York. Awaiting him at the station was one of the pres ident's carriages, in which he was con- veyed to Sagamore Hill. After lunch con the president and Baron Kaneko "rambled through the woods" for over two hours, returning to the presidents house only in time to reach the village for the 5O2 train to New York.
 My visit to the president" said the baron, twas purely social. He invited me to take luncheon with him, and came. After luncheon we rambled through the woods for nearly three hours.
 "oh, no, there was nothing signii. cant or even important about my call I expect very soon to leave for Japan and I desired to say farewell to the president I have not decided definite ly when I shall leave America, but it will be soon, as wish to avoid the bad weather of the late fall and winter.
 My mission to this countryT" said he, repeating an inquiry. T have ex. plained that, haven't I? It was simply to do what could to cultivate between America and Japan cordial conner cial and trade relations. Commerce after all, you know. rules the world It is the greatest factor in a nations progress" ..a.. Has your mission been successful?' the baron was asked.
 "Tes, in a degree. I think 1t has. he replied. America sustains very friendly relations in trade and com merce with Japan. I have formef many charming acquaintances in thi' country, and my sojourn here during the last eighteen months has been yer. pleasant"
 Baron Kaneko was asked if Japai was interested in the operation of rail roads in China or in railroad conces sions in that empire.
 "No, not at all, not that know of, he responded. "Of course by the term of the treaty just concluded with Ra-

Japan's War Fund.

All told. foreign loans, domestic loans, war taxes, increased customs duties, etc., Japan has raised nearly $s5O, 100000 for war purposes. AS wages in the United States are at least six times higher than in Japan, the amount raised by that country is equal to our raising s5,l00,000,0o0. Further, as the population of Japan is only 4S,OOO,0OO, while ours is S4,0Oo.- 900, we should really have to raise about $9,0O0,OO0,O00 to equal Japan's effort.

Passengers from the White mountains are remarking on the ingenuity dis played by New Hampshire farmer who has cornfeld near the tracks up in the middle of the state. Instead of an upright scarecrow, this man has placed his on it's knees, in po- sittOn which indicates that the mans is busy wedding corn. The deception is said to be the most perfect yet con- ceived.
