"a Rox Of the streets.n

The new rural comedy drama with
dash OF sensation in the third act
where the characters are transferred
from an Indiana farm to st. Louis
during the exposition. is a decided de-
parture in the dramatic field, and has,
like its predecessors, Old Homestead
and Way Down East, made an emphat.
ic hit. or course, there is a reason
for this and the explanation is very
simple. The ultra sensational and
highly improbable incidents that form
the bone and sinew of the average
play of to-day have become nauseat.
ing to the average theater-goer. The
public want something they can I'M
derstand. Nothing SO interests an au'
ditor as the faithful reproduction Of
an incident with which he is famil.
lar. The entire action Of "a Boy OF
the Streets" is natural, and the audi
ence knows it is true to nature be-
cause they can recall some incident
that has happened in real life that is
a counterpart Of that which is being
enacted. All the characters walk and
act natural and tell a pretty love
story that will interest any intelligent
human being.

National gsYernmen - no powers
except those delegated Il BY the
States The whiskey tIafiic was CIV
en- as an Illustration. The States
first put tin the National constitution
that internal revenue might be col
Iected and that government choose 10
levy a tax on whiskey rather than
corn, wheat or other products, but
by this the national government is
not in collision with the whiskey traf-
&c as charged by some, but to the con-
trary denCunces It and levies this
tax to aid in breaking 1t up. The
states have all the power to prohibit
the manufacture and sale OF whiskey
and not the national government.
The judge then discussed the none
tary and postal system, pointing out
the intent Of the same, the viola,

Closing he talked about the manu-
facturs and sale Of intoxicating iq-
uors and vas even more pronouncsd
on that subject than on former occa-
sions, when he seemed to some to
be too severe. Not only did he re-
affirm all he said against the traffic
on former occasions, but emphasized
the same by saying that of those who
engage in the traffic SO out Of 100
are dishonest and can give no excuse
to society for engaging in a business
that destroys 1t.
