ENTERTAINMENTS.
Hyperion Tl,enter.

Much interest attaches to the pre-
sentiment next Friday and Saturday af-
ternoon and evening of 1.-The Girl and
the Moon" the newest musical comedy
which introduces Beatrice Vance as a
star. Among the many prima-donnas,
stars and condolences in American
musical productions, each lyric player
seems to have hinged her claim for dis
tinction upon some particular line of
work THE Girl and the Moon has
been written especially for Miss Vance
and contains features which no ordi-
nary actress could handle in toto. Very
little, if anything, is known about
Beatrice Vance of her versatile accom-.
plishnlents, in that this is her first ap-
pearance in musical comedy, as well as
her first bid for stellar i1onors. Some
years ago she migrated from Ottawa,
Canada, and became a ballet girl in a
circus; her ambition to ride bareback
was soon gratified by the renowned P.
T. Barnun1, by whom she was coached
and guided to success. While this work
was remunerative enough, it was too
strenuous for the little woman and did
not exactly meet with her idea of fame
In the theatrical profession. The char
acter of the title part La Croissant"
is admirably suited to her, and affords
every opportunity to show theatergoers
what one little woman can do.

CLASH OVER CAPS
BeiIicose Students Accidentally
Injure Woman Instructor

An unusually fierce class scrap at the
state university resulted seriously yes
terday morning.
AT chapel time a dozen or more
freshmen miners appeared in front CT
the mechanical engineering building
wearing very noticibly new class caps
with the class emblems emblazoned
thereon in flaming letters. This was
the signal for a general engs cement
between bunch of sophomores, who
quickly put in an appearance, and the
audacious freshmen, whose flaring
headgear they sought to confiscate.
While the scrap was at its height
one of the members of the faculty,
Nine. Berth of the French department,
who was hurriedly passing by on her
way to class, was overtaken by a
band of fleeing freshmen and thrown
violently to the walk, injuring her arm.
Nine. Berth declared that she was not
hurt and went on to her class, but the
pain in her arm became so great that
she was compelled to dismiss the class
and send for medical treatment. 1t
was thought at first that the arm was
fractured, but an examination proved
that it was only badly bruised.
Considerable excitement prevails over
the occurrence and several members Of
the faculty are very indignant over
the accident. 1t Is thought that some
action will be taken by President Nor
throp to suppress all such class scraps
in the future. Several other classes
have ordered hats which may be ex-
pected in few days.

world over have praised the American
constitution because its trainers had the
wisdom to separate the three great or

But the gentlemen who demand that
the rate making power be vested in a
the sort of power they are invoking. The
power to make rates for carriage of ar
ticles of interstate traffic If granted at all
is granted as a regulation OF commerce.
But where does the power begin. and
where does il end? 1t begins with the
buying. and ends with the selling. II con-
gress can fix the price Of mere incident

selling price? 1t has not done so, but why
may IL not. If ii can fix the price of car

roads are public service corporations that
congress exercises the power OF regula-

traffic. In other words the power is exer
cised not over the corporation, but over
the commodities il carries Let every
merchant and every broker here tonight,
and every business man who buys or sells
in other states than Illinois understand
that the congressional power to make
rates on interstate traffic logically carries
with il the power to regulate buying, SELL
ing and brokerage, for these are all parts
of the commerce which congress is en-
powered to regulate.
Basis of Distance Tariff
Mr.. Peck then showed that the power
to regulate commerce, conferred upon
congress by the constitution, was sub
ject to the limitation that no prefer
ence should be given by any regulation
of commerce to the ports of one state
over the ports of any other state. He
contended that under this limitation IL
was inevitable that government rate
making could be carried out only upon
the basis of a distance tariff, which,
while it would be within the provisions
of the constitution, would be hopeless

industrial fabric of the county, which.

ELEVATOR IS STUCK
Vags Have oWaIk Four FIiahts
to Jail

The elevator in the new police sta
ton on the top floor OF the Minneapolis
city hall went bump" about IL O'Clock
last night and as result the buns
and vags had to be walked up four
flights of stairs. The drunks who could
not walk were carried by the husky
attendant of the patrol wagon, Peter
Mclaughlin, who. after he had carried
an inebriate of about 239 pounds up
the stairs, struck and declared he would
organize labor union.
The elevator is hitched somewhere
near the top floor of the building. The
attendant says ii is stuck and there
are many persons who will agree with
him.
The old station, which was abandon
ed the latter part. of the last week, was
utilized for a portion OF the night. A
spirit or economy has oYertaken the
administration and for a time there
was no oil for the lamps on the patrol
wagon. In order to lessen the weight
on the wagon, which covers a large ter
ritory and is in constant service about
twelve hours a day. the officers con-
Quoting the vehicle took off the lamps.
They had no oil and concluded to
save the horses as much as they could
by lessening weight on the municipal
omnibus. Last night they had oil.

COUNCIL TO ORDER
THE TRACKS RAISED
Viii Pass Ordinance Requiring
Change of Grade In South.
east Section

The Minneapolis city council, at its
meeting tomorrow night, is expected
to pass an ordinance requiring the
Milwaukee and Northern Pacific roads
10 reconstruct some crossings in South
east Minneapolis.
AT present these crossings are at
grade. 1t is proposed, according to
the plans of the city engineer. to raise
the railroad tracks from University
avenue to the short line bridge and to
depress the streets.
This will entail a cost of $3.50, 600 on
the part Of the railroad companies, but
the larger portion of the expense will
fall on the Milwaukee road. The North
ern Pacific tracks intersect the Milwau-
kee line at University avenue, and
therefore the two roads will have TO
collaborate on some system which will
permit the elevation Of the tracks of
both lines.
This plan, if carried out, will mean that
the old interurban" line between St.
Paul and Minneapolis will pass under
the tracks, and there will be 10 pos
sibility for locomotive to poke a street
car off the tracks and kill a few per
sons-a custom which has obtained in
the past.

Accident Insurance Company
Settles in a Murder Case

One of the companies in which Miss
Lima Christianson had insured herself
against accident has compromised the
claim of $4,000 made by her sisters for

Miss Christianson was shot and kill
ed on Eighth street on Dec. 16 by Fred
erick B. Richmond who ended his life
at the same time. The accident insur-
ance companies refused TO. pay the
claim on the ground that the woman
was not killed as the result of an acct
dent. but her death was premeditated
by Richmond who shot her and killed
himself.
The company which settled the claim
is the United States Casualty company.
