FORCED A CHECK.

Monday Evening,

will, it is believed, report in favor OF
sea-level canal. But it is not certain
that the report of this commission will
be adopted. 1t is purely advisory and
can only recomm mmend, giving reasons for
it's advice. The canal commission may
select the lock canal if it chooses, and
congress may overrule; and dictate the
kind of canal itself. But the report of
the expert commission is looked forward
to with great deal of interest. If it
is unequivocally in favor of any special
type of canal and if it is clear in it's
conclusions as to what to do with the
Chagres river aud the other canal prob
lens congress will have basis on which
to work. .... ...9
The canal is suffering now from the
dust throwing process. The interests ar,
rayed against the digging of any canal
are enjoying the situation. It is com
paratively easy for them to cast doubt
upon the feasibility of any route. The
president and his secretary of war have
noted accurately the symptoms OF op
position, and they have met them
squarely with the statement that the
canal will built and built at Panama
With this question once taken out OF
the realm of debate the work will pro
gress with more intelligence than is ap
parent in the confusion Of present op
erations. !

TO SING AT CLEAR LAKE
Mrs. G.. E. Raymond Will Make First
Appearance in Three Years.

/. Mrs. G.. E. Raymond left today for
Clear Lake, Iowa, to make her first
professional appearance in three years.
Mrs. Raymond. who enjoyed an excep-
tionally successful experience on the
professional concert stage, is better
known to the average patrons Of music
from her association with the famous
Chicago Lady quartet, which she organ
lied and managed in the heydey Of pro-
fessional vocal quartets and eventually
took to England. where it sang in Lon
don and the provinces for two years.
The close Of the British tour of the
Chicago Lady quartet three years ago
was the occasion of the last professional
appearance Of Mrs. Raymond. and her
engagement in concert at Clear Lake
Wednesday night is especially interest
ing, as Clear Lake was the scene of her
professional debut. In those days the
music festivals in connection with the
Clear Lake Chautauqua were things to
reckon on. and Mrs. Raymond, then
Alice Merrill. sang her first big profess
sional concert in company with such
artists as Marie Litta, one of the great
est sopranos America ever produced,
and Fannie Kellogg, Of even greater
fame.
Mrs. Raymond's s return for the We'd
nesday night concert is the result Of q
discovery made by DR.. Clack, long iden-
titled with the Clear Lake festivals,
that Mr.. and Mrs. Raymond were in
Minneapolis, where Mr.. Raymond is

AUTOMOBILE FOR THE AUToMo-
5BlLIOuS.-Charles Welsh has gathered,
under the heading Automobile, anec-
dotes, stories and bon-mots relating to
automobiles, and a history of the eyo-
luton of the automobile. There is pretty
much everything from the limerick up
or down, and it is thoroly readable,
whether one is rich enough to own a
machine or so poor that he has to look
on at the fellows who do own them and
Seem to get such a lot of fun out of
them. For example, there is a sort Of
sweet joy for. the poor pedestrian when
he reads a limerick like this:
fair chaufeuse of Gloucester
Scorches into a coal cart, which toucester;
.s. Tho she landed all right,
She dead with fright
And the shock to her feelings it coucester
The cover bears an embossed automo-
bile, and the edges are cut to the shape
Of the machine. The effect is SO realistic
that one shifts in expectation of catching
the gasolene odor, and pricks up his ears
for the ''HOnk! honk!' of the horn. The
pages are bordered attractively.

A CORNER IN 'AMUsEMENT.-
Whether Tom Mason has a corner in
amusement in his book, A Corner in
Women, or not, he has a vast amount Of
amusement cornered therein. Indeed, it is
not often that there is so much fun and
pleasure of the lighter sort gathered be-
tween the covers of book. The interest,
in fact, begins on the outside of the
front cover and continues thru to the
outside Of the back. cover, for the book
is covered front and back with a
drawing by Charles Dana Gibson. The
frontispiece is by the same artist. The
reading matter begins with Mr.. Mason s
"a Corner in Women" which is followed
with other things Of Infinite variety"
illustrated, most Of them, by leading art
lists in black and white. Appropriate to
a department like this and to "the popu-
lar novel" is this, after Reading Pop

The President and Wall Street.

The president and Secretary Shaw
are reported to be seriously at outs
over the question Of the government
going to the relief of Wall street. 1t
is highly improbable that this is the
fact, tho the president and his secre-
tary Of the treasury may hold different
opinions as to the propriety and neces-
sity of action. The administration
would naturally like to know who is
in need of help before extending any
aid. If it is the Wall street crowd
they are not apt to get aid or comfort
from Mr. Roosevelt. If it is the busi-
ness interests Of the country they are
apt to get it even if incidentally the
Wall street crowd gets a benefit. The
president would scarcely take the stand
that for political reasons he would re-
fuse aid to a legitimate interest be-
cause speculative interest would
profit by it.
The periodic stringency in money in
Wall street is something entirely apart
from the business condition of the coun-
IIy. AZ CuC plOSCuC llo1uSAO Aoe1ho Cn
good commercial paper,- that is loans
for a definite period based on ordinary
commercial security, are obtainable at
the usual rates of interest. But the
rates on demand loans have run up as
high as 25 per cent. This apparently
anomalous condition would not inter
est the government at all if there were
not always the possibility that the
squeeze in call money would affect the
Legitimate business of the country.
If the treasury can keep out Of this
scrap and see return to normal con
ditions without making a move to de
posit more money in New York banks
something will have been accomplished
It will have been demonstrated tha
in good times the rate on call loan
does not have anything to do will
legitimate borrowing and that tn
speculating crowd can sink or swim
without pulling anybody else dow
with them. This is something the ad
ministration would probably be glad t.
see demonstrated and something whic1
the country would be glad to see dem
onstrated, too.

AN ACTRESS WITH
A zOROASTER FAD

Florence Roberts, the emotional act
ress, who will appear in, ,"Ann La ont, -
the new modern problem play by Paul
Armstrong, at the Metropolitan Thurs
day night, finds her greatest recreation
at the shrine of an ancient oriental
religion. Strange to relate, she is a
student of Zoroaster. Her dressing
er. Fire affairs, Nirangi idol and in
cense urns from the orient embellish
the dainty quarters in picturesque pro-
fusion: The theory Of reincarnation
led Miss Roberts to become interested
IN ancient religions. A native of Per-
sia once told the actress curious story.
my. first life was spent as match
MAKER declared the Persian. 81 was
80 years old when I died. My last rec
elections were of the bright splendor
OF the small red flames in the fire altar
near the idol beside nv bed. Then my
eyes failed and I knew no more.
Upon regalnlng consciousness feel
ing of numbness made me concentrate
my faculties in an effort to realize my
surroundings. A cruel driver was urg-
ing me forward. On my back heavy
boxes were piled. l was employed as
beast of burden in the village of my
childhood. I saw old friends. l even
attempted to nod to them. No atten-
ClOH was given HE, however,, anu SOOH
became accustomed to the situation.
"The years passed. Those I had
known as man gradually disappeared
from the community. They had lived
their little lives and were doubtless
reincarnated in another existence. One
day made long journey to the ocean
with merchandise to be exported. In
unloading the boxes from my back [
was carried out to sea by treacherous
waves. I was drowned!
"My third career was that of Per
sian musician. In this role I should
like to live on and on. Of course 1
won It. That would be contrary to the
law Of the universe. But when ! die
again, / do hope I shall be the rein,
carnation of another human being in my
fourth existence.
Miss Roberts says the relaxation of
studying Zoroaster refreshes her, while
the prophets teachings have disclosed
the beautiful ethics of the time and
country wherein Omar Khayam made a

Society in Washington.

Mrs. Chandler Hale, who has come
home after sitting up with the effete
monarchies a number Of years, reports
that the kaiser has conferred a boon
upon society by prescribing the exact
costume in which his subjects shall ap
pear before him. The directions are
minute and leave no room for burning
sion of solecisms. Mrs. Hale believes in
the kaiser 8 rules and suggests the pro-
priety of their introduction in Wash
ington where "some persons have pre-
sented themselves at the evening levees
in the White House clad in shirt waists,
short skirts and tan shoes
We hear Mrs. Chandler and we SYM
pathize with her deeply, but we cannot
approve her suggestion The difficulty
in the way is that we have no kaiser.
Theodore went to Washington to get
us the square deal, not to regulate the
cut of our clothes. If there is anybody
in Washington who wants to make a
fashionplate Of himself it is not Roose-
welt. But in spite of him the kaiser
system is making progress in the capi-
tal If there is one thing more than
another which makes the people feel
like renting Washington and moving
the seat of government to Hannibal,
Mo-, it is the extent to which official
dom has already copied the manners
| and customs of monarchy. Congress
men from Indiana constantly complain
that they are served with pie and no
knife to eat it with, and senator's from
Wyoming are. actually snubbed when
they appear on the, floor with ''plug'
hat and sack coat. From the galleries
the people used to point out the best
debaters, now they gaze worshipfully at
the "best dressers' on the floor. There
is more in the papers about what states
men s wives ase doing in society than
about what their husbands are doing
for the country. But this may be
legitimate. Probably it is more! h.
A rather more serious question ir
connection with this growth of style /:
that while we have encouraged our pub
lie servants to accumulate champagne
tastes the government gives them {
beer income. Hotels where they serve
"cafe noir' cost a congressman all hi
per diem, leaving nothing for miscel
laneous expenses. Department clerks
division chiefs and assistant secretaries
draw cab hire from the government
And yet we expect our officials to b,

The Canal Situation.

1t is evident the Panama canal will
be the subject Of some warm discus
sion in the coming session of congress:
The status of the work is simply that
the $10,OO0,000 appropriated by con-
gress to start the work has been spent
and overspent by the commissioners
The canal is now $1,500,00O in debt and
has payroll of 100000 monthly.
On the scientific side the canal is in
a confused state still. Nobody knows
now whether it is to be sea-level OF
lock canal, whether if lock canal il
is to have single or double locks. With
out knowing these things it is impossi
BILE to guess within $100,000,000 of the
amount the canal will cost.

CYCLE, WoMAN's WORK
shakspear Sonnets Arranged by Miss
Grace Wassall of Chicago.

When the Shakspear cycle, which is
to be sung here by quartet Of dis
tinguished artists, had it's first present
alton in New York last year, interest
was aroused as to the young woman
who had conceived the happy idea of
giving musical setting to the sonnets
of Shaskpear. Seldom had a work
of this character met with such prompt
approval. The composer of the cycle
proved to be Grace Wassall, young
Chicagoan, who had achieved some
thing of reputation as the writer of
pleasing vocal and instrumental COM
positions.
The quartet which is to sing here
includes David Bispham, Nine. Shot
we'll Piper, Katherine Fisk and Kelley
Cole. Ethel CaveCole will be at the
piano.
The cycle will be presented here un-
der the direction Of Loudon e.. Charl-

Orpheum-VaudevIIIe,

Franz Ebert is the headliner at the
Orpheum this week. He appears in a
sketch, Dan Cupid" which is made to
parade the Lilliputian proportions Of the
star and outside of the antics of the
little chap there is little doing in the
amusement line. Ebert appears first as
the messenger boy in the dressing room
of the actress and later poses Cupid,
badly intoxicated, who tells the dancer
to wed the poor but honest plumber and
"chuck' the wealthy clubman who is
importuning her to elope with him: Ebert
is man of small size, but hit of huge
proportions. He is clever, and while the
tone Of the act is not in high key, Ebert's s
quaint mannerisms carry it to a howl
ing success.
| Wartenberg brothers open the bill with
a series of new athletic stunts and close
with some of the best work seen here
this year in juggling barrels and balls
with their feet. This work is far superior
to any of the Japanese attempts in this
| line.
Dixon and Holmes, descriptive vocal
| tsts," kept the crowd amused with their
act which contains more broad humor
than harmony. Werden and Claddish give
the usual line Of "home and mother
| illustrated songs, but the singing is good
and the pictures far above the average
The Hengler sisters dance gracefully, but
their singing was not worthy of extended
and enthusiastic comment. They are
bright vivacious young women and wir
applause thru their ability as dancers
and without resorting to anything
bizarre in the way of costumes.
| T.. Nelson Downs gave his coin anG
card palming with good effect, but seems
to overlook the wonderful part of his
act. He works with the attempt to mys-
! tify, when he could make a greater hi

of coins with the ease and proficiency
shown. Mosher, Houghton & Mosher close

ADJUSTMENTS
BfIou-"SIs Hopkins"

Little can be said of isis Hopkins"
that has not been told on it's previous
visits to, Minneapolis. One thing that can
be truly said is that it is better than
ever. Miss Melville has brought her own
creation to perfection and in doing it
has proved that she is capable of better
things. She is surrounded by a good
company that makes the most of what
it has to work with. It is sufficient to
say that the piece is so handled that ii
seems absolutely real, that it brings
hearty laughter and real tears as the
situation demands.
Pa and Ma Hopkins are made rea
lovable characters by Frank Hartwel
and Florence Webster. Lee Daniel, as
Vibert, IS natural in the heavy role, anG
displays far better taste in matters OF
dress than Is usual in villains. J. T
