community to unravel IL It can. a.
torians on the lookout for a novelty, a
thing of mystery, and for something to
awaken their ardent investigation, will
not fail to see Phroso, the mechanical
doll, that does more things than a
human being ever thinks Of doing on

SECRET RATE IS ALLEGED

CHICAGO May IA dispatch to the
Tribune from indianapolis says
The charge in the report OF Commis'
amer o. (o.rt' tons ne na!i that the
Standard Oil Company had secret rate
for shipment of oil from its refinery
at Whiting to Evansville and that it
paid about $4,000 year less to rail
roads than would have been the case ii
open rate had been charged, is to be
the subject Of an investigation by the
attorney general OF Indiana under the
law inhibiting Determinations against
shippers within the State,
Whiting and Evansville are both in
Indiana and ii is claimed that discrimi.
nations came within the scope OF the
law, which affixes heavy penalty for
such practices Companies engaged in
producing oil in Indiana and who sup.
ply independent refneries frequently
have charged that the Standard Oil
Company was being favored by the
railroads at the expense OF independ.
ents, but no investigation ever was
made.
This last legislature created a state
railroad commission with authority in
such cases, and a. the revelations by
Commissioner Garfield show clearly
that the State law has been violated
perSistently the attorney general asd a
railroad commission have determined
upon investigations.

Astoria's $1,000 people are to enjoy
a special and radical departure in the
character Of the performances given at
the Cosy Star theatre during the com
ing week, when the chief attraction is
to be the marvellous mechanical doll
Phroso. This ingenious and thrilling
exhibit has pleased and puzzled the
peoples of all the earth, and one Of its
peculiar characteristics is that it never
pals; ones interest in it is always the
same; a trait that cannot be claimed
by any other attraction on earth. This
