AT CASINO THEATRE.
A Good Summer BiIl Was Presented
 Last Night

A GOO0 Summer BhtI Was Presented
 Last Night.
 By far the most enjoyable summer bill that has been presented at the Pickett Springs Casino Theatre was the presentation of The Irwin Sisters" by the Peruchi-Gypzine Stock Company last night.
 If this was a mid-winter attraction the foregoing sentence would not have been written, but for a summer attrac- tion, The Twin Sisters" Is winner.
 It Is just what one wants to see at a park amusement house. It's a thriller. There are more daring rescues, noble sentiments, atrocious vil- Irishman in the two hours of '"TheTwin Sisters" tha may be seen in Montgom- cry in twenty years.
 It's the sort of play that, in the winter time gladdens galleries and makes the parquette look lonesome. But parquette people, like any other human beings are fond of thrillers oc- casionally and there is no better way to pass a night in the hot season than by being thrilled. Who wants to see Ibsen's or Ludumann's at plays at a park theatre.
 The company is well cast for the play. Fred Seward makes fine ''Sol Lee" He Is dramatic enough. but doesn't over do the role of the Gypsy crook.
 Miss Lindon showed her usual talent and hard work in the dual role ot Bessie Lester and Laura Drew.
 The speelalties and the aerial act of the Five Bicketts were enjoyed. Same bill tonight.

We shall try to make Port Arthur port of entry so that Kansas City shall have anothsr connection with steamship lines and the rest of the world.

 Dr. Edward L. Trudeau. Dr. William Osler and Dr. Hermann M. Briggs, are
 the president and vice-presidents
 respectively of the association and each adressed the general meeting.
 The afternoon session was conducted in two sections, the sociological and climatological. In the first the work of localities was reviewed with allu- sions to the necessity for participation by the public in contributions, etc, to save the lives of those afflicted with this disease. In Pennsylvania, 1t was stated, the average cost of curing a tuberculosis patient is S120. In New York the cost was estimated at from
 $7 to $8 per week while in Maryland $s per week was given as the cost of cure. Tn comparison with this 1t was stated that the value of the life saved, together with the cost of at- tention and medicines in cases where no special treatment was secured, amounted to a total of $2,000 The investment was said to return a divi- dend of not five, but five thousand per cent. in. favor of the organized effort as represented In the modern institu-
 tions. This discussion in the sociolo- gical section was based on two papers by Homer Folks of New York and Ed
 ward T. Devine of Chicago. The dis
 cussion was general,
 The second section took up the tech
 nically medical phase of the subject. Dr. Norman Bridge of Los Angeles pre- sided. The topics discussed included
 the relation of tuberculosis to life insurance and insurance companies;
 "the open air treatment of surgical
 tuberculosis" "the role of colima in the management of tuberculosis" and
 the influence of the advent of tuber- culosis upon native populations"
 As to insurance it was stated that twelve per cent of the death benefits
 paid by one of the "big three" life in- surance companies was due to tuber- cuIosis; that over one-half of such benefits were paid during the first five years of the life of the policies and that of one-half billion dollars paid in
 death benefits by eleven of the large companies yearly six million dollars Is oaid on account of this disease.
 The evening session was devoted to an adress by Talcott Williams of Phila- delphia and the election of directors and general business.
