Wednesday matinee. There are some
fifty persons in the company, and the
scenery requires two of the largest bag
gage cars for its transportation. The
company will come here from ST. Louis.
and in order to avoid any possibility of
delay in arrival will make the run by
special train. From Minneapolis "The
Heart of Maryland goes to Milwaukee,
which will necessitate another movement

Public Gambling.

There is no need to jump to the con-
clpsion that because the gambling raid
Was not productive Of many convictions
for gambling it was a check upon the
administration. It is rather to be
looked upon as severe check upon the
kind Of gambling which has been going
on behind locked doors and in out-of-
the-way places. The raid practically
served notice upon the public that it
takes its own chances in being caught
in such places. It puts the public on
its guard and it is morally certain that
the attendance will be small and select
hereafter. t.
The gambling instinct is SO strong in
men that it will not down easily. It
is engrafted in our local politics. 1t has
the private sanction Of some---but not
many-business men who believe it
makes a livelier town. 1t is not consist
emily opposed by those who set their
faces against it. These persons gamble
themselves to some extent at home or at
their clubs and they weaken not only
their own stand against the evil but
their conscientious protest against pub.
lie gambling. The spirit Of gaming at.
fects women as well as men, making it
doubly difficult to handle the problem
In the face Of these facts it is mat
ter of congratulation that the admins
tration has made as much progress as i
has.

A TALE OF WAR TIMES, SANS
time stories-novels-
are expected to be rather stirring. AS the
life Of such times is intense novels that
picture that life are expected to convey
at least. modicum of intensity to the
reader. In this, George Cary Eggleston
fails in A Daughter Of the South, his
latest story At least, If he imparts any
thrills, they are very temperate, and they
are the effect of his material rather than
of his way of using it. -..f t.s ,.
The story is that Of a young Kentuck-
ian who goes down the Mississippi near
the close of the war to buy cotton and
ship it north. While he is on shore look
ing for cotton to be had from poor farm
ers at ridiculously low prices a girl, who
has lost all her relatives, or all but one.
by the war, and everything else, appeals
to him for aid. The RESULT is foreseen
from the first. The novel is one to prove
the course Of true love does run smooth
now and then, which is all right enough
tho it hardly makes good stuff for novels
unless handled in manner different from
that adopted by Mr.. Eggleston.

THE MAGAZINES

What Maeterlinck Has Sought to Do
One Of the leading features of The Arena
for February is an appreciation Of Maui
rice Maeterlinck by Archibald Hender-
son. In this Mr.. Henderson says:
r IN. Maeterlinck has only sought to do
a little sooner what others will do later.
when the soul in obedience to unknown
laws, Will rise to the very surface of hu-
mainly"
He means by this that Maeterlinck has
sought to impress upon the world '.the
belief that the development and disclos-
ure of the human soul is the ultimate aim
and goal of existence" In this Mr..
Maeterlinck is but new prophet of a be-
lief centuries old. But 1t is well to have
prophets who can gain the worlds ear
by new methods
Another feature of the February Arena
is Edwin Markham: the Poet Prophet of
Democracy"
The Craftsman for February Social
and industrial improvement in a number
of interesting phases is featured strongly
In The Craftsman for February The
leading article is sketch of the life,
work and personality of Jack London.
The article is written by Henry Meade
Bland, Californian and close personal
friend of Mr.. London. Another phase of
work along the lines of social progress is
given. in an article by DR.. Josiah Strong,
president Of the American Institute OF
Social Service It is entitled What So
cial Service Means" and fully explains
| the functions of the institute, which is a
clearing house Of experience" In Bos-
ton, work of somewhat similar char
acter but less general in its scope, is be-
ing done by the Massachusetts Civic
| League. This is explained by the secre-
| tary of the league. Edward T. Hartman
A practical philanthropy that promises t.
| be far-reaching in its results Is de-
scribed in way full Of human Interest

Senator Hawkins Candidacy.

Political ambition in ST. Louis county
seems to run IN groove this year.
Representative Hugo wants to be
speaker of the house, and Senator Haw-
kins, in response to 'tinsistent de-
mands,' has announced himself a can
didate for lieutenant governor. Both
want the appointment Of committees
that will shape the legislation Of 1907,
and the direction of affairs in the two
houses.
Duluth and the iron range are en-
titled to their share Of things political,
of course, but other sections of the
state have some right Of choice in the
matter. Merely because Duluth wants
certain man to have an office, the
state is not obliged to hand it to him.
The candidate must pass muster before
the people Of the state, as to his rec
ord, his antecedents and his connec.
lions. If the St. Louis county dele
gates come to the state convention solid
for Senator Hawkins, and prepared tc
trade their heads off for him, his pres
tige will be hard to overcome, but the
convention will make a mistake if il
takes any man for this important office
without close scrutiny.
There was q very strong suspicion
a year ago that the state senate wal
controlled ,by a g combine, 2 the same
combine. in fact, which had been sue
cessful at previous sessions in choking
off legislation not wanted by powerful
corporate interests. Senator Hawkin
was one Of the ruling powers, ant
chairman of the railroad committee
which administered the last rites t,
the reciprocal demurrage bill. Will,
