AT THE TEEATERS
orpheum-Modern Vaudeville.

q i =
Ia Jolie Titcornb heads the orpheum
bill and may truly tbe said to be the
greatest actress who has appeared on
ethe vaudeville stage in Minneapolis. La
:Jolte5 is several. inches taller and more
statuesque than any Of her predecessors.
She sings with a wonderful power and
SO stuns her audience with her florid
beauty and raiment5 that they spend the
remainder of the afternoon In trying to
realize that they have sen q beauty Of
international fame.
"a The show is as full Of laugh as seltzer
bottle Is of fZz.9 I: La Vine and Leonard
start 1t going with an automobile travesty
that sets the crowd to bowling in sheer
abandon Of delight. Polk and Collins
switch the attention along musical lines
with aneritorious banjo playing and John
Birch follows with burlesque on melo-
drama that reeks with satire and fun.
He works like Trojan but gets full rec
ompense in the thunders of applause that
mark his exit.
Barry and Halvers have a comedy duo
that is pleasing, Barry introducing sever
ally novelties in soft shoe and shuttle
a talkative and singing pair who are really
funny and who can sing. Henri French,
the man who ecana do anything, ranges in
versatility from trick bicycling to illusions
and Juggling. Flop q My Thumb on the
kinodrome completes a bill that puts the
crowd in merry mood and sends them
home to think 1t Overland laugh again.

Opportunity Not to Be Wasted.

AThe federal census bureau is doing
an important work for Minneapolis in
collecting statistics of the city's trade
and manufactures. The results Of the
Investigation, when collected and pub
Eshed in comparison with similar sta
tistics of 1900, will speak graphically Of
the city's industrial progress in the last
five years. The report will not only
satisfy local curiosity, but it will be in
valuable as an advertisement of Mime
apolis. Nothing succeeds like success,
and no argument will bring capital to
q city as quickly as solid reputation
for successful industries. Some heads
Of manufacturing and wholesale estab-
Eshments are said to be very reluctant
60 give the information desired by the
census officials, fearing that it may be
put to some hostile use. The census
bureau ought not to suffer by such a
prejudice. It has always kept faith
with those who furnish it information.
Individual returns are kept confidential,
ahd the public is only given the accum-
5lated result. The business man who

Withholds information from the census
bureau is taking a short sighted view
Of the matter. The government, thru
this bureau, is doing a work that Min
neapolis: could afford to pay for roundly.

Enlistment that holds back tnforma-
tion is detracting just that much from
the total, and making less favorable
showing for the fye77year period, n. q
No one acquainted with the city 8 life
and business has any doubt that th1esre
has been tremendous progress since
1000, but the outside world will not be
convinced unless it sees the figures for

DAY OF REJOICING
IDEAL WEATHER BROUGHT OUT
CROWDS TO EASTER SERVICES,
AND THRoNaED THE STREETS.

1t was easy to get oneself into a

terday, and it is seldom that any hoh-
day or festival is celebrated so nniver-
sally or with so much spirit. The pro.
cession of people vending their way
reverently to the churches began at
sunrise, as there were many early SER

The larger downtown churches were
unable to accommodate the throngs that
gathered at their doors, attracted by
the manifold offerings of music, flowers,
pulpit eloquence and the magnetic
spirit OF the united worship of many
SOULS. Communion was celebrated In
the Catholic and Episcopal churches
and In many others as well, and new
members were received into church fell

The religious spirit dominated the
day, and In its essence he<display of
beautiful and seasonable new raiment
was part of the spirit of worship and
rejoicing. Owing to the lateness of
Easter, the opportunity to appear in
spring attire was one. not usual in Min
nesota, and it was made the most of.
The streets were as gay as flower gar
dens with the colors of the dainty
gowns, flowers and millinery worn By
the passing throngs.
Having discharged their religious
duties, people elected as much as pos
sible to spend the day out of doors to
enjoy to the utmost the loneliness of
the season. People walking, motoring
or driving, gave an animated appear
ance to every street and road in and
about the city during the whole day.

Paying It Back to China.

The attitude Of the United States is
based not on aSdesire to placate China

ART WORKS SOLD
Increasing Interest In Minnesota
Products Shown by Exhibit.

The annual exhibition of the Mime
sofa State Art society this year has been
a great success. The state law requires
that it shall be shown once, but this
year it has been shown in three places
Winona, the place selected by the
board; st. Paul, where the collection
was assembled, and Minneapolis,
where the expense was guaranteed
by the Minneapolis society of Fine
Arts. The exhibition in Minneapolis
In Boards art gallery closed Saturday
night. :
There has been an increasing num-
Der of sales this year, which is an en-
couyagement. Two of the choicest pic
lures of the collection were purchased
by popular subscription in Winona and
will be presented to the library board
when they are returned from Mime
apolis. These are "An Old Flemish
Town. by Charles Warren Eaton, and
"Spring in the Berkshires,' by II. Boil

VIEWS OF THE PARK
illustrated Talk on the Yellowstone and
Portland Expo.

( G. F. Mcneil will give an illus
trated lecture on Yellowstone Park and
the Lewis and Clark Exposition at the

fifteen years and has made study Of
the handling Of tourists.
The entertainment will differ from
the usual illustrated lecture in that

lures speak for themselves.
To those who are planning to make
the trip with a visit to the Lewis and
Clark Exposition this lecture will have
a peculiar interest The pictures shown

Joseph Jefferson.

Joseph Jefferson is dead at a ripe old
age and one filled with honors. No
American actor has ever held warmer
place in the affections Of the people
than Jefferson, and there is none whose
departure will be more sincerely
mourned. saa
Jefferson is already spoken Of as an
actor Of the I" old school, = and 1T
sounds rather strange, for it was Jeffer-
son who brought in the new school Of
acting When he was a young man
he played in Laura Keepe 8 New York
company in competition with such men
as Couldock, Boucicault and Sothern.
He fairly surpassed them all because
Of the simple directness Of his method,
or, rather, by his discarding method
almost entirely. His speeches were
not learned to be recited in q selected
attitude, but came from his lips with
suggestion Of spontaneity. that OBJ
scured the thought Of acting. It is
to the use Of the natural method that
we may trace the growth Of the char
acter of ~" Rip" It was one with
which Jefferson's gentle nature sym
pathized and he allowed it to grow.
Jefferson IS life ought to be an en-
couragement to young actors. He made
fame and fortune and achieved long
life in a profession which usually ex-
hausts the vitality early. But the &C
tor who expects to achieve Jefferson g

Jefferson methods. Jefferson did moth

ciety. He showed that it was possible
to be an actor and a citizen, player
and gentleman. Of course there are
many who are doing the. same thing,
and yet there is plenty Of room foF

and work among young members OF

Our Trade Perspective.

In the study Of history, in the exami-
nation of picture, in the estimate of
a character, it is necessary, in order
to form correct Judgment, to get the
right perspective.
Perhaps we do not often think SO,
but it's just as necessary to get the
right perspective In order OBSTINATE
correctly a business situation. Some
times we stand too near the center Of
interest; the focus Of our vision does
not fall where it ought to. and the
image is blurred and indistinct.
1 Here in Minneapolis we have been
growing along, close up to the POSSIBLE
tiles of our future. Around US lies q
region Of country unsurpassed in any
quarter Of the globe for variety and
wealth of natural resources. We have
mines; we have forests; we have fields
adapted to the growing Of crops, the
raising of stock, the prod ucing Of dairy
products. We have lakes and streams
teeming with fsh----.a resource which
will some day be rightly appreciated.
We. have 4 climate which insures us
greater uniformity and success in crop
production than can be found in any
other part. of the United States. But
these natural advantages have been SC
close to us, those Of us who lave lived
long in this community, that we have
often failed to estimate correctly either.
their value In their natural state or the
advanced condition Of their present de-
velopment. So it happens that we are
not prepared, many Of US, to realize the
degree Of progress thruout the north
west which has created for this city, as
its commercial center, opportunities aud
possibilities. for great trade expansion.
Our perspective has been at fault. We

The Speakership.

The report that former Speaker Hem
derson is. returning from California in;
worse health than when he went away
will be received with sorrow by many
friends in the west country. Since the
speaker disappeared from politics his
old comrades have been able to4over-;
look some Of his weaknesses as public
man and to see once more only the
bluff partizan who was a. fair fighter
and a good hitter. The speakership
was not quite the kind Of Job for
which Henderson was cut out. He and
Grosvenor were great men to bait the
democracy, to close a whirlwind debate
or to furnish phrases for campaign;
Constructive statesmanship was in nei-
Their one Of them, and yet they were
useful men in congress.
The comparative failure Of Hender-
son is tribute to the office of speaker,
There IS no office in the government,
not even the presidency, in which a
man will be tested as in this. A dull
president may hide behind a brilliant
cabinet. A fool speaker is gone be-
cause he will be fried daily in the
crucible Of great heat. He must be
the real metal or he will go out in a
putt OF gas. Kiefer and Henderson
were conspicuous failures in our day:
Randall and Reed were conspicuous
successes. The latter knew their work
and knew their environment.

in the Northwestern bank this morning,

unguarded, but in reality the clerks are
under careful supervision, and if it is
suspected that one Of them is stealing
money, the bills are marked, and when.

A New Tax Devised.

The New York legislature has put
a. tax Of 2 cents share on stock
transfers on the metropolitan exchange.
The law is a revenue measure passed
to keep New York in the: list of states
which levy no land, tax for state purz
poses. The Stock exchange members
are feeling very sad about it and the
press of New York has been unanimous
for once in denouncing a proposed law.
The legislature, unmoYed by the groan-
ings of Gotham, passed The bill ...
,,Ys,; There is not much probability that
the tax will divert, trade from the New
York exchange to Boston, sPhila delph1a
and Chicago. People who are trading
in stocks will put their orders in New
York, as before, because New York is
the center Of the industry Of trading
in stocks. On transactions involving
the actual transfer Of shares, the tax
is ininitesimal. It may be appreciated
upon ffsewash deals," but no legislature
is goingIt to be very tender upon that
subject. Instead Of transferring bust
ness, this law, if it proves revenue
producer, is more likely to stir up kim
dred legislation in other states. The
constant endeavor Of the taxing powers
nowadays is to find new objects to levy
upon. Stock transfers will, look very
good to rural legislators from this on. &

4 SOME CONFESSIONS OF VALUE TO
The BOOK WoRLD.-Co nfessions are
often good, both for the confessor and the
confessee.S Some Of that kind worth much,
especially to confessees who may be
thinking of having dealings with publish
ers, are to be found In A Publishers Con-
fesslon, by - - 9------------(?9 ~. It really
makes little differences by whom; the con-
fessiOns are good for the soul Of the read
er, and, we doubt not will have a good in
fluence upon the book world in general,
for their weight is against commercialism
They speak for the publishers position
as that Of a profession rather than as that
Of q huckster, and that is good. Put
ting the publisher in the position of a pro-
fessional man makes the author his cli-
ent, and that again is good; it is the
proper relation between the two.
The unknown confessor notes some ten
denotes. For instance, he says the
doomed book is doomed, or rather, that
the booming Of books is passing. He says it
confidently. He notes a reaction against
the 20 per cent royalty to authors which
makes the publishing business too pre-
carious. He tells us frankly that novels,
after all, have less to do with literature
than they have to do with popular amuse-
ment." He gives hope to the unknown
author who has a real story to tell He
shows the danger both to author and pub
Usher in putting out poor book--a book
that fails to 'catch on OF course, it
hurts the author, and, even If there is no
financial loss, it hurts the publisher; doubt
is cast upon his judgment, and book
buyer will think twice next time before
buying one Of his books.
These things and many others are illus
trated with examples that make in them
selves most entertaining reodtng. There
we discover things about books we have
read, which are like notes about people
we have met. There, also, are given in
sights into the, qualities that have made
certain books successes, and the writer
as we'll as the reader has an interest in
| those.
Altogether, the little book in hand sheds
a clear light on a business or profession
which has a good deal more interest for
the reading public than any other-more
far than butchering, even, as the beef
trust does it, or baking or candlestick-
making.
