The Renewal a Strain.

Vacation is over. Again the school
bell rings at morning and at noon,
again with tens of thousands the
hardest of work has begun, the re-
newal of which is a mental and
physical strain to all except the
most rugged. The little girl that a
few days ago had roses in her cheeks,
and the little boy whose lips were
then so red you would have insisted
that they had been kissed by straw
berries" have already lost some
thing of the appearance of health.
Now is time when many children
should be given a tonic, which may
avert much serious trouble, and we
know of no other so highly to be re-
commended as Hoods Sarsaparilla,
which strengthens the nerves, per-
fects digestion and assimilation, and
aids mental development by building
up the whole system.

End. That the church extend
heartfelt sympathy to the rereaved

3rd. That the church remember
in its prayers the little motherless
girls, and keep watch-care over them

sPoKANE's LEADING THEATERs.


From the far of Hawaiian islands
comes the Royal Hawaiian band of ~
musicians and singers to the Spokane
theater Wednesday and Thursday
evening, with a Thursday matinee.
This organization was established in
1871 by Captain H. Berger of the Ger
man army. who was sent to the Ha-
waiian islands by the first emperor of
Germany to form a military band.
The great charm of the Royal Ha-
waiian band is its versatility, every
member of the band playing from five
to 10 instruments and also being a
trained singer The programs given
by the band are varied. including mill
tary and operate music, both by the
military band and stringed orchestra,
singing by the choir, selections by the
glee club. numbers by the mandolin
banjo and guitar clubs and solo vocal
numbers by singers of both sexes.

new STATE ADDED
OKLAHOMA AND INDIAN TERRI
TORY As One STATE.
Another Star Added to Flag by Presi-
dent Roosevelt Signing the State
hood Bill-People of Arizona and
New Mexico Take Vote Whether
They Will Come in as One State.

Another star was added to theUnion
Saturday, when President Roosevelt
signed the bill admitting Oklahoma and
Indian Territory as one state. The
measure also provides that Arizona
and New Mexico may be admitted to
statehood as the state of Arizona, pro-
vided the people of the territories
vote in favor of admission on the
terms submitted by congress.
The signing of the bill was made
the occasion of an interesting cere-
mony. Senator Beverage and Repre-
sentative Hamilton, chairmen of the
senate and house committees on ter
ritories, who have worked long and
hard for the measure, were present, as
also were Delegate Mcclure of Okla
homa and a number of residents of
Oklahoma; Delegate Andrews of New
Mexico, Secretary Loeb and others.
Just before the president signed the
bill Ambassador Speck Won Sternburg
of Germany was ushered into the Of
fee, and he, too, witnessed the cere-
mony.
The president used two pens in sign
ing the measure, writing the first
name. Theodore" with a solid gold
pen presented by the people of Ari-
zont; his family name, Roosevelt,
with an eagles quill taken from an
eagle in Oklahoma. After signing the
bill the president congratulated Sena-
tor Beverage and Representative
Hamilton on the completion of their
long and arduous labors in connection
with the measure. He also expressed
the hope that the people of Arizona
and New Mexico would avail them
selves of the opportunity to come into
the Union as a state. From every
viewpoint, he regarded this as the
wise thing for them to do, as the
opportunity might not come again in
score of years. The president said
he has a personal interest in the adj
mission of Arizona and New Mexico
as many of the members of his regi
ment, the Rough Riders, resided in
those territories.

"Jim The Penman."

In plot it somewhat resembles
'Raffles,' made famous through the
work of Kyrle Bellew, both plays hav-
ing for their main theme a society
criminal of great brain, whose polish
ed manner hides great craft and cum
ming A comparison of Jim the Pen
man." with 'Raffies is said to give the
advantage to the older play, for while
the production of the Bellew piece
fails to reach beneath the surface, a
moral is taught by Young's four act
drama. The plot is hung together in
an ingenious manner, all revolving
around the adventures of the penman,
the role of which will be taken by Mr..
Douglas.
For the first time since the opening
of the new Columbia patrons of
the company will this week see Mr.
Douglas in the role of villain, a part
which he seldom assumes. The part
of James Ralston, the forger, is re-
ported to be fayorite one with Mr..
Douglas, however. Other members of
the company will also have congenial
roles. Miss Henriette Browne will
take the part of Nina Ralston, a role
which she portrayed with great sue
cess in the east. Charles Wyngate
VIII be cast as Captain Redwood,
while Donald Meek will be seen as
George Ralston.

bitter struggle which so frequently is
cited in connection with the upward
climb on the stage. Whether from
talent or good fortune, or both, she
became leading woman for Edmond

was taken into the late Augstin Days
famous company. going thence to
Daniel Frohman's Lyceum Theater
company. from which she was trans
ferred to the management of Charles
Frohman. The latter organized the
company known as Frohman's come

head. Thus it will be seen that she
speedily won recognition in New

KIDNAPER LANDS in PRISON.
Stolen Child Was Returned After a
Weeks Detention.

Philadelphia, Pa, June 20.-After a
weeks confinement in an untenanted
house. subsisting ON bread and milk,
and suffering FROM exposure, little
Freddie MLth, the year old boy who
was abducted a week ago. has been re-
turned to his home.
His abductor, John Kean, is in
the city Jail, and his trial is to be rush
ed by the loacl authorities.
John J. Kean,t he kidnaper of little
Freddie Muth, was once prosperous
broker, who was respected in the husi-
ness world, and whose word could com
mand a moderate amount of capital.
My a few years ago he was happily,
married ard is now the father of three
bright and interesting children, the eld-
est not yet as old as the boy he stole
Then, a few years ago, there entered
upon the scene woman. For her the
prosperous broker neglected both his
business and his family, ntil the form
er went to ruin and the latter was
brought to the verge of actual suffer-
ing.
In an effort TO recOup his fallen for
tunes, Kean entered the real estate bus
mess, and here his ability placed him
on the high road to prosperity.
But his income would not suffice for
the maintenance of his family and the
household of the other woman as we'll,
and he began classifying his accounts
and embezzling rents and moneys which
he had collected for his clients. His
dishonesty was discovered by a man
named Cooke, whom he had represent
ed ever since his entrance into the real
estate business, and for whom he had
handled large sums.
Cooke was not only client, but a
friend and benefactor of Kean, even
providing him with a free house for
his family. When he discovered the
dishonesty of the man he had befriend-
ed he did not at once cause his arrest,
but instead went to him and informed
him of what he had discovered and
gave him June ~, to make good the
embezzled money. On Saturday, June
8, Kean wrote to Cooke from Palmyra,
N. j. stating that either Tuesday night
or Wednesday he would return the
stolen money, which amounted to less
than $12. 900. 1t was in order to get
the funds to pay this obligation that
Kean kidnapped Freddie Muth.

Pay up San Francisco Fire Losses or
Get Out of Business


In the name Of the city of San
Francisco and the state Of California
demand has been made upon insur-
ance companies that are accused of
trying to dodge their obligations for
full settlement with the people of
the city. A telegram signed by
Mayor Schmitz and Governor Pardee
has been sent to the home offices Of
the 81 companies that voted in Oak
land to cut all payments Of losses rs
per cent The exact contents of the
telegram are kept secret, but it known
that the message is virtually an ulti-
matum and warning to the concerns
addressed that they must deal fairly
and honestly with the San Francisco
public or be driven from California.
Before the message was sent it was
submitted to Insurance Commissioner
Wolf. who gave it his entire approval.
A number of companies that hold
large amounts of reinsurance in other
concerns would sign stipulations ex-
tending the time for filing proof
of loss were they not prohibited
from doing so-by the reinsurance COM
panies. They have conferred with
Commissioner Wolf and explained the
plight in which they find themselves.
They have been warned, they say, that
they will run the risk of losing all
their reinsurance if they yield to any
demand of the insurance commits
sioner The Royal Exchange company
has arranged with the commissioner
to have a published extension of time
accepted by him instead of the stipula-
ton demanded. This extension is
until September 1.
