AT THE WASHINGTON.

Princess Trixie, the horse with
human intelligence, which has
proved magnet to draw large au-
diences to the Washington theater
this week, will still be a feature of
interest during the coming week,
and in addition there will be seen
one of the strongest vaudeville bills
which has yet been seen at that
popular house.
The Nellos, high class jugglers,
will head the bill for the week.
Their feats are of an entirely new
and original order and should prove
a good drawing card. The two Rose
Buds, in a novelty dancing act. are
attractive entertainers. The light
er part of the program will be in
capable hands; Mary Madden, COM
edienne; Riley and Lavigne in a
comedy sketch, and Walter c. Will
son in a new and charming ballad.

HOW JOS, MED|lL PATTERSON
BECAME A HOT SOCIALIST.

the party, although in his speeches
he announced that if the republican
party did not in the future take up
that cause he should leave it.
Patterson's own statement of his
dip into socialism is that some time
ago a club was formed in the 25th
ward of Chicago to discuss econom-
ics, and rules were made prohibit
ing membership except when the
applicants were unanimously elect
ed. Finally, he said, two socialists
were admitted, more that they
might be ridiculed and questioned
than anything else"
But" concluded Patterson, they
always seemed to have the last
word and best of the argument and
finally other members became in
fected."

PEKIN, March 10.-The Ameri-
can legation in this city is prepared
for any emergency and the reports
of serious anti-foreign riots in vari-
Gus parts of China have no terrors
for the members of the legation.
The last preparations have been
completed and, if it should become
necessary, the legation will be able
to stand long siege. The Ameri-
can legation in this city is regu-
lar fortress and Is the first off ial
residence owned by the American
government in any country.
The buildings were constructed
by Sidney w. Meeley, assistant SUI
pervising architect of the treasury
department, who was sent to China
after the Boxer troubles, more than
three years ago, for the purpose of
building a safe retreat for the men,
bers of the American legation. He
completed his task recently and re-
turned to the United States.
The buildings are of brick and
stone and of very solid construc-
ton. The largest building is for
the use of the minister. Surround
ing it are buildings for the score
taries, the chancellary building and
a number of smaller structures.
They are all built closely together
and are surrounded by formidable
wall of masonry. A short distance
back of the wall on one side is the
great city wall, On which has been
constructed an American fort,
equipped with small guns. The Am

KNOCK OUT
PLUMBING
LICENSES

The supreme court yesterday rem
dered a decision knocking out as
unconstitutional the plumbers IL
cense law. The court stated that
the theory upon which the different
professions were protected by IL
censes was to safeguard public
health. The court insinuated that
this was not the object of the
plumbers license law, but that it
was designed to place control of the
plumbing business in the hands of
a state board-in other words: to
create a monopoly.
The decision can not help but
give the public some relief from
the plumbing grafters.

GENTLY radical.
The presumption is that Darrow
or some one similarly inclined
has been his philosopher and friend,
since Patterson in his letter of res
ignation asserts that he has read
but one book on socialism.
1t is said that Darrow, the social
lists and the more radical advocates
of municipal ownership, propose to
run Patterson at the head of a so
cialistic municipal ownership ticket
in the next mayoralty campaign.

DANGERS OF PNEUMONIA.

A cold at this time if neglected

is SO often fatal, and even when
the patient has recovered, the lungs
are weakened, making them pecul-

Honey and Tar will stop the cough

and prevent pneumonia. La grippe
coughs yield quickly to the wonder
full curative qualities of Foley's

YOUNG MILLIONAIRE'S
STAND FOR SOCIALISM.


The universal ballot gives every
male citizen an equal political op-
portunity. The common owner
ship of all the means of production
and distribution would give every
body an equal chance at music, art,
sport, study, recreation, travel,
self respect and the respect of 9TH
ers. l, for one, cannot see why
those things should be concentrat-
ed more and more in the hands of
a few.
By distributing money evenly, I
do not mean to say that all the
money in the country should be cut
up into equal bits and that every
body should get a bit. But, on the
contrary, l believe that the owner
ship from which money springs
should be vested in the whole COM
munity. In other words, as l under
stand it, l am socialist. - From
Joseph Medill Patterson's letter to
Mayor Dunno.

American play, dealing with an Am
erican enterprise, will be the at
traction at the Auditorium theater
next week. The plot is woven
around an invention that young
electrician has invented to supply
power to vessels, especially men-of-

planned the idea to his friends, one,
an expert, steals the idea and has
it brought before the committee be-
fore the original inventor arrives.
When Gordon, the real inventor, ar
rives with the plans he finds that
some one has preceded him. He is
accused of stealing-but later finds
evidence that points to the real
thief and his invention is accepted
by the government. The play is
full of comedy scenes, some of the
best comedy characters of the sea
son will be represented. Miss
Maude Still will render new and
bright specialties.
