Orpheum,


Miss Rose stahl as 'The Chorus Lady,
and the Voelkers musicians, furnish the
talent In the Orpheum bill this week. The
remaining numbers are gallery ticklers
and mediocre in quality.
Neff and Miller open the show with a.
mixture of dancing and dialogue, with
the dancing only fair and immensely SUI
perior to the dialogue. Lynn Welcher
does a monologue that does not rise above
the ordinary and Howard brothers do
banjo juggling and give several preten-
tious efforts In the way of marches and
overtures.
Rose Stahl and her company make up
for all Of the shortcomings Of the bill
For twenty minutes they keep the house
In an uproar. The fun in the act is that
while Miss Stahl is Of course presenting
something Of caricature Of the "spear-
carrying LADY, she retains just enough
Of the real interspersed with a lot o.
telling touches, to make the act go from
start to finish. The playIet ends with a
touch of the tragedy Of the stage and is
a hit of huge dimensions.
Susie Fischer, 'the phenomenal barry
tone" sings songs Of the sea In pacific
mood. Frederic Voelker, violinist, with
Miss Frederic Voelker. accompanist, gave
splendid Interpretation of the "F,antasie
Caprice, by Vieuxtemps and in response
to an encore, gave the intermezzo from
.Cavalleria, Rusticana.'' voelker is an
artist and pleasingly free from the man
nerisms affected by the virtuoso. His
technique is perfect and his violin pro-
duces wonderful tones whenever he wills.
Voelker's popularity with the music low
ers Of the city will grow as the week
progresses.
Burton's acrobatic comedy dogs are
well trained and work with unusual will
ingness and speed. Burton has trained
them to point where the whip is used
only for directing. The high-jumping
greyhound clears the barrier at what
| looks to be an impossible height. The
kinodrome closes the show with series
! Of interesting films
The presence, in the gallery, Of a will
! ing worker with a bludgeon would go far
to make the performances more enjoyable
| for the balcony and first floor seathold-
ers. The goods" have gained assurance

wherein the entertainers fail to- knock

Senator Foraker's happy cancellation
of his promise to speak for the Philadel-
phia gang in it's campaign to obtain
the lootage Of that city recalls that the
senator made a fortunate change OF
mind once before. He had proposed a
resolution to abolish the criminal clause
In the Sherman act but when the public
saw what was being attempted and that
the proposed amendment would practi-
cally abolish the aot. the Ohio senator
saw that he was mistaken and changed
his mind about it.

Minneapolis as a. Financial Center

il .t..- Il,..s
Minneapolis, the money center of the
northwest-this is the newest title our
city is to wear. What we have been
doing here in manufacturing and IN
iobbing has been much commented upon
in the east. Little has been heard
about the city as a money market. In
the current number Of the United States
Investor, an eastern financial publica-
ton. one may find the city's money
status gone into.
Principally, the Investor comments
upon the increasing ability Of Mime
apolis to finance herself and her sur
rounding country. The fact that issues
of Minneapolis municipal and street
railway bonds, Duluth street railway,
Minneapolis electric power, light, gas,
and Chamber Of Commerce bonds were
entirely absorbed here within the past
few years has not escaped notice. There
are many bond-buying houses in the
east, and time was, only few years
ago, when the northwest looked to them
to float any heavy proposition. Today
there are So many sound banks and
trust companies here that little coming
up of recent date has got away from
them. 49, RI =. =. s.
The. doubling of the capital stock Of
a local bank, and the taking Of all the
new stock by old stockholders, is an
other item that did not pass. notice ir
the east. Time was when the eastern
promoter found this a good business
field. Today a bank or other sounc
corporation does not have to go outside
to get new capital, however large the
sum required. There is an average Of
about $65,OO0,000 lying in local banks
all the time, against only. about $50,
100000 in 1900, which makes many
things possible that, could not be, dom
a few years ago. ".:
Yet this is really not the signifcan
part of it. The things that show tn,
tendency are the recent large bond issu
of Winnipeg elevator company, who's
properties lie at Fort William, Ont
which was foated here; the taking owe
