UnIuue-PoIIte vaudevIlIe.

-Acrobatic feats which are beyond the
powers Of the average person possessing
the regulation number of legs, and are
little short Of marvellous when performed
by men having but one, mark the act Of
Ernie and Honegger at the Unique this
week. Clog dancing, jumping and high
kicking hardly seem appropriate exer-
cises for g. man with but one leg, but the
way this clever pair handle themselves
puts the agility of the majority Of more
fortunate men to shame. ~ -s,1-..5

Their songs are far from popular, and
the enthusiasm with which they are re-

Of the audience as we'll as the ability Of

Politics II, Hennepin

Congressional affairs in both the re-
publican and democratic parties are due
to wake up and show a little interest,
If credence can be attached to the re-
port that John Lind, former congress
man and former governor, is again en-.
PERTAINING the congressional bunch. The
report comes from source close to Mr..
stand for it at present. -
: There is a practical certainty, how
ever, of one live democratic candidate
for congress. The radical democracy of
the county is planning to rally about
Frank D. Larrabee, who it is said has
agreed to bear their standard. 10y
All up and down the democratic line
there. is promise of sufficient activity!
within the party to keep the democratic
side at the primaries. The radicals are
out to show their strength, and the COP
servatives are willing to cross swords
and be shown if possible.
The real interest on the ticket viii
center about the mayoralty contest.
The radicals are ready to line up and
push Labor Commissioner w. H. Will
lIiams, who has also a large support
from other factions Of the party. The
uncertain, with the exception Of DR..
place Just. what former Mayor Haynes
win decide to do is still an open ques-
ton; that q is causing some guessing.
While the Williams strength is united,
and it is said will stand pat no matter
who is in the field, the Haynes support
may be split by other candidates. J.
{" Heinrich, who has an ardent back
ing, will have to be reckoned with by
the Haynes faction In addition Alon.
20 Phillips. the former sheriff, with
friends thruout the city, is likely to be
in the race, and will be a factor to be
considered. :s. =.
Other contests on the ticket will be
| brought about by the rival. candida
cies of radicals and conservatives. The
real democrats are glad to see promise
| Of an awakening in the party for the
primaries. The heavy democratic vote
cast at the primaries for republican
candidates has never pleased the rock
| ribbed democrats, and with contests in
| the party this vote will be kept in

The San Francisco Relief Fund.

The Boston committee which went
to San Francisco to superintend the
distribution of relief has returned with
a divided report. Two Of, the COM
mittee believed in the Red Cross
methods Of relief, which involved the
reference of all applications to organ
lied committees Of investigation and
the apportionment Of relief in accord
ance with the reports Of these depart
ments. All Of this. took, time, and
sometimes the applicants suffered Sc
verely during this enforced delay. Mr..
Seabury, the chairman Of the commit
tee, thought each applicant should be.
heard briefly and his credibility judged,
as accurately as might be under the
circumstances and the relief given on!
the spot.
These opposing views Of the Boston
committee perhaps furnish the key to-
the difficulty the Minneapolis people
have been having with the San Fran
cisco committee. The red tape sur
rounding the giving Of relief by an
organization is very likely responsible
for the alleged surplus Of supplies. 1t
has been the policy Of the committee
to cut off relief as fast as it was pos
sible. This it was urged to by its own
knowledge Of the pauperizing tenden-
cies Of free food extended after the
necessity therefor had expired. This
has: led to a policy of dole. =. :.
We must give the people on the
ground credit for the best of Intentions
In distributing the supplies in their
hands. On the other hand, there is ae-
formulating evidence that the distribu-
ton has been uneven and often made
| qnate, and there has, as far as Mime
Eapolis is concerned, been disposition
to ignore The local committee in the
matter Of their protest against the
summary manner in which the Mime
apolis relief flour has been converted
into cash. q, .......
| @'The Minneapolis committee was en-
! titled to more consideration than it re-
ceived from San Francisco. The city
sent it's first -four train on the advice
Of the San Francisco people. On the
same day a representative of the com.
;mittee went to San Francisco and III
Twas, on his advice that more sof the
fund was converted into -four and for

mittee acted always upon the advice
from San Francisco, and it would seen
i as tho there were plenty of opportuni
ties to learn whether the relief wai
rising above the probable demand !, ia
such advice, was received, and the Min
neapolis committee believes that :had5

ADJUSTMENTS

LyCeun1-"AC the 7ainDoWS Cho. T.
Divested of the glamor which naturally
surrounds sthe first production Of new
play in a city where first might perform
ances are uncommon, "At the RainboW's
End" makes an impression at its second
presentat ton which justities the enthusi-
asm with which it was received on the
opening night. In many ways Mr.. FyleS
and Mr.. Stuart have improved the action
and the lines since tho opening week,
but there is one particular in which the
play would not be the worse for a little
more working over.
The readiness with which Marion Kent
repudiates her oath never to accept the
love Of Carson made in the intense scene
with the Indian girl, Maisa, strikes a dis
cordant note in the chivalric motif Of the
drama. While it is possible, by a. careful
weighing and analysis Of the later devel-
fopments Of the plot, to see that the hero
Inc is, in truth, released from her obli-
cation, it would add greatly to the salts
faction Of the happy ending If this re-
lease were made a bit more obvious, a
thing which should be easy to dramatists
as able as Mr.. Fyles and Mr.. Stuart have
shown themselves to be.
Repetition does not detract in the least
from the picturesque charm Of this ro-
nance of the southwest. The vivid col
ors Of scenery and costumes in the open
ing act in the plaza Of Albuquerque, the
warmth Of the camp pitched in the cold
shadows of the untamed mountains the
yellow splendor of sthe dawn behind the
torture stake ana the primitive comfort
Of the frontier ppst at Fort Leavenwprth
arg as good To l6ok upon the second time
as the first.
Against this background the action and
lines of the play are full of poetry. Kit
Carson, as acted by Ralph Stuart, is3Yery
much man. The sort Of man that ene-
mics fear, friends follow to the death,
and women trust. The part is one which
gives Mr. Stuart chance to appear at

Rural free delivery carriers are under

In response to a newspaper clipping
