IN the far west-in ArizOna-where
types and characters are strongly con
trasted and where romance and the
strenuous love are peculiarl blended
Messrs. Broden and Peters have staged
the drama in elaborate and appropriate
style, and have employed a cast Of
players headed by Orrin johnson the
star, who are the very best that could
be obtained.
A musical event of more than ordi-
nary Importance in matters theatrical
IS the engagement, at the Grand Opera
House on Friday afternoon and night.
OF William A. Brady's production Of
r. Melville Baker and Joseph Hsrt's
successful musical nonsensity, "Girls
Will Be Girls, headed bv the Sol
smith Russell musical comedy. All.
Leech and the Three Rosebuds, together
with a singing and dancing COM
pany OF fifty. The entertainment is a
novelty in itself, having none Of the
stereotype, trashy characters and songs
so often perpetrated on the unsuspect-
ing public under the guise Of musial or
farce comedies and was spoken of by
the New York Herald upon It's premium
at the Fourteenth Street Theatre in
New ork City, as an amusing musical
play appealing to those who appreciate
the clean and wholesome in the theatre.
The Offering for next Saturday at the
Grand Opera House will be the Kirke
La Shelle company in 1.-THE Virgin
ian. " This stage version of Owen
Wister' fascinating story of the West
has been one of the dramatic novelties
OF the past two seasons and continues
nlgh IN the esteem of theatre patrons.
One Of the most convincing elements in
the success of fThe Virginian" is the
portrayal Of the title role by Dustin
tarnum, who is physically and temp
eramentally the ideal of Owen Wister's
cowboy knight.
There is an abundance of mirth.
music, beauty and iollity in Happy
hooligan's g Trip Around the World, /"
which IS announced as the attraction
at the Lyceum for the next three days.
lt is altogether likely almost every
one knows that the farce comedy.
Happy Hoohghn's Trip Around the
Morld" is based, to considerable
degree, upon the mythical doinps and
adventures Of f. Opper's genial hobo,
cartooned so effectively in the New
" 'AAAAAA tNAA AAA0 OIAAiI IdItIN OF
the Hearst syndicate. Taking some
of these adventures as a ground plan,
Maurice Hageman has built up an ex-
ceedingly clever farce comedy, admir-
ably suited to Spectacular display. a
quality that the management insisted
upon, as it was determined at the very
outset to make "Happy Hooligan s
Trip Around the World the most
spectacular musical comedy ever pro-
duced.
The western military play, "North-
ern Lights, " will be the attraction at
the Lyceum Thursday, Friday and
Saturday. This great play is too we'll
known to need comment. 1t is a story
Of brave men and heroic deeds-deeds
that have become a part of the history
of our country, "a romance Of love, a
tale Of human sacrifices so realistic, so
ably constructed, as to hold the au-
dience entranced from the rise of the
curtain in the first act to the final fall.

on the same line for quite. a time.

make a round trip on the interurban
line every day in the week, and that
gives me four chances day of meet
ing my nickel. So. it's not surprising
that it should come to me six times in
two months.
ttOf course, a man who is on his way
to Seattle to ship for Japan might get
this nickel and take it to the orient, or
it might get in child IS saving bank
and retire from circulation until Christ
mas, but the chances are in favor of
its staying in the twin cities and being
carried back and forth on the stfeet-
cars, fol. everybody rides and keeps
nickels for, the purpose. A man gets
off streetcar, goes into a saloon and
pays a nickel for a glass of beer. The
nickel is paid out again minute later
in change to another. man who jumps
on a streetcar and pays it back to the
conductor. If man could mark coins
that he handles he would often find
that he is spending the same money
over and over again.

q "A man on an interurban car the 9th
er% day handed the conductor. a dime
and received in change a. Nickel He
glanced at it and exclaimed: 'Well,
I'll be hanged!'' Then he explained
to his companion. - $500 - ;.
sss'This is the sixth timeiI have had
this nickel given to me in. the past two
months. i had bought a die for stamp:
ing my initials on metals and happened
to try it on this nickel, so that's how
I happened to know it. I supposed that
travel all over the country, or the
world for that matter, but this partic-
ular coin seems to- stick to Minneapo-
lis, and to make a speciality of riding
on the interurban line.
''The frequency with which it turns
up caused me to make a little inquiry
about the circulation of nickels. Say
100000 persons ride on the streetcars
here in day, and each one pays cents
or: in all 100000 nickels. In good
many instances the conductor did not
receive a real nickel For fare: A man
hands him quarter and he gives back
nickel as a result Of the transaction.
Suppose hand the conductor 10 cents
for our fares, and you hand me nickel.
When he collects the second fare, you
pay the fares and I give you back your
nickel. The nickel has practically been
paid twice to the conductor and still
you have it back in your possession.
Surprising that the conductor col
lects nickeland gives it out in change.
It is paid back to him as a second fare
and again given out in change to man
who comes back to Minneapolis in the
afternoon. He hands it to the conductor
and then it is paid out, taken in again
and finally is back in the pocket of the
man who originally gave it to the con-
ductor in the morning.
g A street railway man told me that
the company does not bank 5000 nick
els a day on the average. The5greater
part Of their deposits are in coins of
larger denominations. The nickels
they keep on hand for change, and SO
they go back and forth.
Some nickels are working for The
street railway company as regularly as
if they were on the pay roll. Most of
them don It even get to the company s

The United States and the Congo.

The appeal of prominent New York
citizens to Secretary Root, urging him
to use the ''moral support of the
United States government to secure the
correction of abuses in the Congo Free
State, will strike responsive chord
wherever the shameful story of King
Leopold s cruel exploitation in Africa
has been read Nor would the moral in
reference of the United States be
without legal justification, far tho the
scenes of suffering are from our proper
sphere of influence. For this country
participated in the original geograph-
zeal conference of 1876, out Of which
grew the international association that
organized the Congo Free State. The
United States, moreover, was the first
power to recognize the flag of the new
state.
The Indictment of the Belgian king
by his own commissi eners is severe

ton of the civilized world, and his

officers and agents. Practically all the
powers of Europe have territorial and
commercial interests in central Africa.
The initiative, therefore, in calling
leopold to answer the Indictment be-
fore the bar Of the nations would come
with peculiar appropriateness from the
United States, which can be accused
of no other motives than those Of the
highest humanity.
1T was the United States that regis

ilization against the Jewish massacres.
