1t Is sometimes interesting to watch
the curves imitators make to get the
public to buy limitations of genuine
goods.
Every now and then some one will
think there is a splendid opening to
fix up something like Postum Coffee
and advertise the same way and take
some Of the business.
An imitator is naturally ignorant Of
food values and how to skillfully
make cereal coffee, on scientific
lines.
Such men first think of preparing
something that looks and tastes like
the original, with no knowledge of
how the grains should be treated to
prepare them so that the starchy part
is transformed properly and the val
liable nourishing elements made d.
gestible.
Such limitations may be foisted on
the public for a short time, but the
people are critical and soon detect the
attempt, then the imitators go out of :
business.
Something like 400 of these little
factories have been started in various
parts of this country in the past 9
years, and practically all of them have
gone the long journey" Just lately
a new one has come to life and evil

favor by copying the style of the Post

First Musical Comedy.

Musical comedy was introduced into
England May %, 1866. Dignified by
the name of opera, an entertainment
called THE Cruelty of Spaniards in
Peru was produced at the Cockpit
theater on that day According to no
tices of the time, it was expressed by
vocal and instrumental music, and by
the art of perspective in scenery
The production also marks the first
use Of scenery on the stage, and its
development few years later caused

Jacques
UTAH"


 "Utah," which the Poli summer stock company has already made the cause of another exceptional success at the Jacques this week, has every right to be called drama of types for the cast of characters comprises as unique set of stage creations as anything seen here in many moons. It is question whether the dramatist has not tried his hand at character drawing rather than play making, but be that as 1t may he has done one through the other. Aside from the conventional hero, heroine, ingenue and juvenile the persons of the play are superb studies in literary charac- terization. There is John Farnum, the man of granite and iron, played with splendid effectiveness by Willard DashieIl; Bishop Cannon, whose amorous instincts are turned to the implacable greed of the money lender when his designs are thwarted; Jo Caldwell. the homespun product of H. linois soil; his wife, sweet and motherly old gentlewoman, and the three ward teachers of the church of Latter Day Saints, portrayeu with fine results from comedy viewpoint by Lucius Fairchild, Wyrley Birch and Maurice Haswell. The contrasts are admirably made. Caldwell and his wife offsetting with their kindli- ness the relentless hatred of Farnum and Cannon. and the hypocritical winnings of the ward teachers afford. ing the right mixture of good humor to make the audience feel happy Nothing quite so funny since the ses' sion of the three dominies with Gavin Dishart in "The Little Minister" has been seen on the local stage as the scene between the teachers and the stiff-necked young malcontent, Far num's son. who does not relish the prospect of mission to the Canni bal islands. Friday afternoon tho souvenirs will be portraits of Nh ! Dashiell and Mir Fairchild. Prices ar' 10, 20 and 30 cents. ladies 10.

flashed from sec

flashed from scores of hip pockets. The order was the result of 8 so-called race riot" of more than ordinary viru- lence, and even while it was being car ried out other riots occurred, with many wounds and at least one death. In spite of New York's complacency it has difficulties of this sort, and very real they are. The bad nigger" ele
 ment in the metropolis is larger than in any but very thickly settled negro sections, with the difference that New York's bad niggers' often have lot of money and assume to be people of pull" and power. Any difference with a white man sOlidifies the negro group and on the other hand, white repro- bates take every occasion to rebuke the clannishness of the colored men. The ordinance against firearms is ev- anywhere ignored in New York, as each batch of arrests, with the resulting search, abundantly proves. It is cu- rious fact that guns are thickest in the quarters" in those sections of the city where races are distinctively em- phasized-in the negro, Italian and French districts. for example, the knife playing an important part among the Italians. Razors are no longer civ ilized weapon among the negroes. The revolver is the accepted instrument of rebuke. and, in view of this fact, the police know what to expect at race row. They know also that such row will, as likely as not take the final
 form of thrashing for the police.

was heard appreciatively for what it was worth. There was no news in the assurance that Croker is not coming back to meddle in the game again. Ev- erybody knows that by this time. Gro ker is broken man since the death of his sons. He has all the money he wants, and since he never was in the game for anything else there is no reason why he should bother himself with the cares of a machine that is now in other hands. In some ways Murphy is quite as securely placed as Croker was, with fair chances of be- coming richer than his predecessor. Murphy has many anchors to wind ward. He is a keen, hard man, quite capable, like Croker, of lourishing on abuse. Abuse, indeed. is absolutely es- sential to Tammany leader. The rule is, be abstractly abused. but don't be concretely caught. To be attacked by the enemy is to merit promotion in Tammany.
 The quiet summer politics of the hour is peculiar beyond all precedent As Big Tim took occasion to remark, the Tammany renomination of McClel- Ian is settled. By a strange freak of fortune the Hearst elements are ar rayed against the mayor and the Citi- gems union is likely 10 be for him. The Hearst side fsvors Littleton, Brooklyn's borough president, just now for comptroller and 0dell is accused of joining forces with the Littleton people. The latest boom on the repub- ! lican side is for County Clerk Hamil- ton. With McClellan's renomination a certainty there is absolutely nothing on which to rest a safe prediction as 10 his opponent. There will be a fine mix-up, in all likelihood. for the dem ocratic disaffection is genuine and the republican outlook is exceedingly fog gy. The fights between the Brooklyn and Manhattan democrats is an impor- tant element in a confused situation.

her dress is neat and trim. they un- consciously initiate her. She does more for them by her attractive personality than by the instruction they receive. One sometimes sees in town or vll- Iage successive sets of young women who have been under the moulding hand of single charming teacher They repeat her finest characteristics and she gives the keynote to the com munity.
 Many years ago, before anybody thought of germs and microbes, there was a most engaging and beautifu. teacher whose class of 30 every after noon were each dismissed with a kiss. At a signal the girls closed their desks and turned around in their chairs. Then beginning with the first and go- ing on to the last, each girl stepped to the desk, gave her teacher her hand and was dismissed with a kiss. You may have some old friend who can remember a scene like this in her schooldays. We are much more care full about kisses now, and do not en- courage them from rosebud lips. We have learned that even babies are bet ter without too many kisses.
 But there may be affection without much demonstration. If you do not love your teachers they can do little for you. If you dislike them. not only will you do poor work under their care but you will not be so sweet and Iowa ble as you might otherwise be. To carry a stone in ones pocket to throw 1 if the chance come, is to cherish spirit of unkindness which acts mos unfavorably on the whole life.
