The OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

AS a whole the Orpheum presents a
splendidly diversified bill this week. It
1t stronger in some spots than In others,
but the general entertainment is good.
The Vassar girls gain headline distinc-
ton thru, the novelty of the idea It is
musical and dancing turn with the mu-
steal excellence in excess of the ability
of the goods as light and fantastic trip
pers. The act closes with a pleasing
electrical feature and the only criticism
having any real foundation is that some
of the maidens Of the original company
have returned to their Greek and the
students" who have left the dear old
college walls to take up the work of ele-
waiting the stage and their feet are not
along the same lines of anatomical arch
itecture demanded by the original cos
tunes still in use. This is not apparent
at ali save in the pony ballet, the maid
ems wearing the traditional cap and
gown in the rest of the act. A Vassar
gown, can cover, like charity, multi
tude of Sims. The fddling of Nonette is
satisfactory and the whistling of Jessica
Crew adds piquancy to the offering.
Patty brothers are playing return
date with their acrobatic stunt with
Alexander Patty walking down a
flight Of stairs upon his dome of thought.
He really walks upon his head,'' and
claims to be the only man in the world
to perform this stunt. His splendid iso-
lation will remain intact until Anglo
Saxon skulls grow thicker. - y
Norton and Nicholson have a sketch
burlesquing the light housekeeping of
newly welded pairs, who have braved
matrimonial seas upon bargain counter
salary. It is broad, but has a mountain
Of rnirth concealed in line and situation.
Chinko, an English juggler works along
the lines of Salerno but with a total lack
Of that wizards finish and certainty
Minnie Kaufman has deserted the family
of famous cyclists to shine alone, and as
she is the best trick rider in the. world
today, she is making a tremendous sue
cess. -
Hayward, Conroy and Hayward present
a supper turn at the opening Of the bill
that serves it's purpose. 1t is not killing
in it's humor or brilliant in it's execution.
Swor brothers have a black-face act that
is far better than the ordinary or the
real thing, with very clever dancing as a
feature. The kinodrome, with commend
able up-to-dateness has an automobile
film with road-burning speed. 1t is the
one best bill of the fall. =,

work is far broader than that Of, Mr..
Cadbury. In addition to establishing a.
fiourishing co Operative town in Leclair.
he has established "a large consumptiye
colony in southern California for the ben

Mr.. Eads is beautifully illustrated with

Governor John A. Johnson's remark
able feat of being elected as a democrat
in 1904 at the same time that Roosevelt
carried the state by over 100000 is not
likely to be repeated this year. The gov
ernor's !. popularity among the Scandi-
navians is said to have. waned to such
an extent that Albert L.. Cole, the re-
publican nominee, should be easily
elected. The prohibition and public own
ership nominees are not expected to
figure in the result: The democrats are
vigorously contesting the congressional
elections and claim the defeat of Con-
gresham McCleary. The legislature will
probably be republican and will return
Knute Nelson to the United States

You printed in your edition of the 21st
inst. the following paragraph:
Congressman McCleary passed thru Minneapolis
the other day on his journey to Boston, where
yesterday he addressed the Home Market club
on the tariff and why it should never, never be-
revised. McCleary is Of the old guard. He
would rather die thousand times than surren-
der a single schedule.
1t seems to me that Mr.. McCleary is
not fairly represented in the above item.
I have been of his constituency ever
since his advent into public life. have
read his speeches and sat upon platforms
with him when he made them, andI chal-
lenge the assertion that Mr.. McCleary
ever stated either in words or by impli-
cation that the tariff should never be
revised. On the contrary, he has stated
over and over again publicly that when
ever the public would be benefited more
than injured by revision he was ready
to proceed to that end
