"Du BARRY"

The most dramatic scene of -Du Barry" which the Poli summer stock company presents for the first time Monday afternoon. takes place in the proverbial third act. The Duchess Chateauroux. the depOsed favorite of the king. and ChoiSenl. .he minister of state. who is using the duchess as a tool to fight the growing influence of the Due de Richelieu and his latest discovery for the king. Jeanne Been who has been created Duchess du Barry. are plotting the death of the woman who has assumed the first place ia Louis's affections. The duch- ess r.oisons a glass of wine in Du Bar rvs bed chamber and is detected by RIchelieu. who at the proper meDent warns the king and defeats the scheme. ChoiSeui is forced to drink the drugged wine himself to prove his innocence and dies in horrible agony; Du Barry is sailed as the saviour of the royal life and De Chateaurou1 Is hurried away fa the teTrors of the Bsstille- The intensity of the situation is I'm possible of description and the suspense is increased up to the last moment Miss Mckeon will play De Chstezu- roux.

 Sale of Hyde Stock.
 NEW YORK, June 17.-"Thomas r Ryan will have to go on the witness stand and tell all that he knows abou' the purchase of the Hyde stock in the Equitable"
 This statement was made by A. Ed. ward Woodruff, counsel for Herbert G. Full in the latter's suit against the Equitable Life Assurance society.
 T am simply waiting until the Hen. dricks report has been made public,' said Mir. Woodruff. T will thep bring a suit which will enable me to question Mir. Ryan regarding the details of the purchase of the Hyde stock.
 "Mr. Hyde had no right to sell that stock. Under the Henry B. Hyde deed of trust he could not dispose of the stock until one year from next June, even if he had the consent of the other bene6ciaries and of the other trustees ?
 T am certain there has been no sale of the Hyde stock" said Alexander S. Bacon, counsel for Rowland D. Buford, who is suing the Equitable. 'The fact that a public statement has been made as to the price paid for the Hyde stock is not prima facle evidence of it. It strikes me that the policy holders have been tossed from the frying pan into the nre. Mir. Ryan seems to have out Togoed Togo and to be in absolute con- trol of the policy holders"

aieanings. in Bee Culture, is made up sf an ordinary piece of glass tubing that can be obtained at any drug store. perhaps 12 inches long, and a short length of one-half inch rubber tubing just right to slip over the glass tube. The other end of the rubber tubing is plugged up. The glass tube Is bent in an alcohol flame. the end brought down to . small orince. This any druggist can do for you if you will show him the To operate. squeeze the rubber tube in the hand while the glass tube is immersed in a pan of hot wax. Release the pressure on the globe. when the wax will flow up into the glass tube. Next draw the open end of the tube along the edge of foundation where 1t comes in contact with the top bar. While drawing the tube, increase the pressure on the rubber handle, fore ing the hot wax out in fine stream.
 This principle is all right, but we do not find it as convenient to handle as our regular Van Deusen fastener with an orifce in the handle that regulates perfectly the flow of wax might say that within i2 months we had made a change in the Van Deusen method of manipulation. The hole for the air vent is put in the handle. so that there is no danger of burning the fingers. and the tube is made of drawn brass. This is cheaper to make fsells about the same price). and in our experience it gives a more even flow of wax. The Grifen tool. above shown. requires a uniformly increasing pressure on the rubber ham de, otherwise the wax will not run out.

 Messrs. Root, Macveagh. Gordon and Mayor Weaver held conference. after which Mir. Root left for New York. The mayor said they went over the en4bre situation. "Of course can. not go into details" he said, but we touched on almost all matters in gen eral."
 It is understood that Mfr. Root ad. vised the mayor to take no furthey steps in the matter of prosecutions un. til he shall have had time to examine the evidence submitted at the hearing of Councilman Frank H. Caven, who was held in s2.50O ball for court on the charge of violating his councilmanic oath in being interested In city con. tracts.
 John A.

He has been confined to his bed since last Saturday.
 Oscar Noll. assistant commissioner of highways. has rendered his resigna. tion. and it was accepted by the mayor.

PRAYER AT A TOWN COUNCIL

No Longer the Corkscrew Inargu-
 rates Caldwell Okan.) Sessions.
 c. W. Cupp. mayor of Caldwell, Kan, Is a wonder. says Caldwell cor respondent of the Kansas City Star. He is reformer. Moreover, and that is the strange part, he has carried out his reforms.
 In the spring the people of Caldwell decided that they ought to have re- form candidate in order to be strictly in the vanguard of progress. So c. W. Cupp was nominated. No one imagin. ed that this man, the quiet, unpreten- tious town laundryman, would have the courage to carry out his pledges. No one believed him when he said that if he was elected the common council would be opened with prayer. The old wide open lid of regime moved along in the same way 1t had always done. chuckling between drinks at, the strange apparitionr reform candidate in Caldwell. But pretensions of anxiety turned to tinge of real concern when it was found that Cupp had received the greatest number of votes. The mayor elect declared that his pledges made before election would be put into execution at once.
 A look at Caldwell. the Caldwell Of the past. immediate and ancient, is necessary to an understanding of what Cupp undertook when he made his dar- ing stand for better ways of civic liv- ing. Thirty years ago Caldwell was tough. in the real out and out acccpta. ton of that term in the west. Being centrally located to a dozen or more big ranches. 1t was but natural that the town was chosen as the rendezvous for the gatherings of cowboys and oth- CTS of like ilk.
 Gradually, with the slow decadence of old time men and methods in the west. the town grew bit better. Gambling houses. saloons of all degree and houses of III fame remained. how ever. fostering and spreading like a moral ulcer. There were many such places when Mayor Cupp took the pre- siding officers seat at the first council meeting under the new political stntus of the community.
 This meeting of the council will be opened with a prayer instead of a corkscrew." the mayor said. He pray cd for strength 10 combat the evils he had arrayed himself against. Much 10 their own surprise the members of the council joined in. That strength came to Mayor curp is evidenced by the fact that. weakly supported by the aldermanic body and frowned upon by public sentiment. he has done what temperance leagues. governors and what not have failed to do-banished liquor absolutely from town
