American Society
Equity.
o I

This society was organized at In.
dianapolis and is now 10 its sixth year.
1t is farmers organization has done
more for the farmers financially than
any society that so far has come into
existence. It's object is 10 set d fair
and equitable price on all farm pro-
ducts. and get it. Heretofore prices
have b9en set and controlled by gam
blers, members OF boards Of trade In
our large cities. men who in many
cases do not own foot of farm land
and who have never spent an honr in
the field OF production, and yet by
Thorough organization they have been
able To dictate prices to the farmer.
Every branch OF industry in America
is organized except the farmer, prices
are set for him both going and coming
and without organization to control
the prices of his products. we find him
mere floatsam and jetsam on the vast
beach OF industrialism. Up TO 1902
the tobacco growers of the southern
states were literally poverty stricken,
The tobacco trust giving them but
three cents pound for the best leaf
tobacco. At this juucture the Equity
people went In there and organized
them, put the price up TO ten cents
per pound, while the tobacco trust
looked on, jeered and refused to paw it.
Fortunately the farmers had faith IN
their leaders and refused to sell. One
blue day for the trust buyer from
England came TO the trust for cargo
OF tobacco, they couldn't supply him,
and when he came to the growers for
his cargo, he paid their price, and the
farmers knew the trusts bluff had
been called, and they were safe. To.
day they pay them their price with
out argument. Second grade tobacco
that the trust would hardly look at
before they now pay six cents, and
''sweepings" that formerly the trust
got for carting 1t away, they now pay
three and half cents per pound. Il |
half cent more than they used to pay |
for the very best grade. 1t is really |
the greatest victory that has ever been |
achieved over the trust as a whole in
the United States. What they have
accomplished with tobacco. and also
cotton, can he ACCOMPLISHED with
every product raised on the farm.
This society has already worked as far
north in Michigan as Wexford county |
and it is the intention to extend the
organization throughout the United

"A Message From Mars. y

1t seems the coucensus of opinion,
not only in the United States, but
throughout the world that if q man
is selfish and mean with his sweet
heart he will not make Il good hus-
band. How often is the remark
heard coming from young ladies like
this: s-Oh | wouldn't marry that man,
he's selfish" Selfishness begets other
vices, aud no young woman wants
to select for her husband man who
is not brave, generous, good natured
and considerable of others. Biblical
lore is rich in its history of selfish
men and women. They have always
existed, they always will exist. Some
have been reformed, Others have not.
Richard Ganthony, the American
playwright selected for his subject in
his comedy, "a Message from Mars.
the most selfish man on earth. He
sends an inhabitant from the planet
Mars to the earth, for the purpose of
reforming this particular selfish man.
He first has him engaged to a beau
tiful and charming young woman.
She becomes familiar with his selfish
ness, breaks the engagement and is
receiving the attention of more de-
sirable young gentleman. At this
point the messenger from the planet
Mars performs the heroic task of
bringing the selfih man to his better
senses. His wealth has made him
autocratic, he has no time or pa
thence for Others. He drives a tramp
from his door with violent curses.

"The Player Maid"
A Splendid Attraction at the Grand
Theatre Saturday Night Miss
Florence Davis and Elliott Dex--
ter, Supported by a Strong Cast.

Miss Florence Davis supported by
| Elliott Dexter in "The Player Maid
| will be the attraction at the Grand
Theatre Saturday night. Judging
| from press comments OF leading
cities this organization gives a per
| Torrance the merit Of which can not
be questioned. The play is i'll foul
acts with scenes laid in and around
the old Drury Lane Theatre, London
| in the DAYS of David Garrick. 1t has
| a we'll defined plot telling a coherent
story, is replete with wit, compiled:
tions and ludicrOus situations, and
deals with the life Of Eleanor Hall
man, young actress, who was a
leader in the dramatic profession III
her day. The play is decidedly com
ic, but so rleverly written, and arts
tically presented as to place it side
by side with the works of masters in
play writing. The play affords ex-
cellent opportunity for elaborate
costumes, and it is said that the
gowns worn by Miss Davis and the
ladies of her company are master
creations of the dress makers art.
Miss Davis is fortunate i'll having a
strong supporting company which
gives her every opportunity to dis
play her acting powers. Notable
among her support is Elliott Dexter,
q Young actor who has created a
distinct sensation by his portrayal
of the Earl OF Roxbury.
The Baltimore News dramatic
critic had the following to say OF Miss
Florence Davis and Elliott Dexter in
"The Player Maid"
"As the madcap actress, Mistress Hal
lam. Miss Florence De is was glOriOusly
beautiful and bewitching. The change
of emotion, of which she is capable, as
tonished the audience; one did not know
all the time whether she was testing or
whether she was serious. A scene in the
first act we'll illustrates this. Lady Dor
othy Hastings Miss PRICE, seeks Mistress
Hallam Miss Davis in the latter s dress
ing rOo ON at the theatre. She tells her that
she wishes to be rid of her betrOthed
whom she has never seen, and asks. as
Miss Halam is such a wonderful actress
that she impersOnate her. In telling the
name of her betrothed comes the surprise
Miss Davis flies into q rage, declares that
the man is her own lover and that Lady
Dorothy shall never have him. At just
the right moment she reveals that she
was but exhibiting her powers as ar
| actress, so that the lady could judge
| whether or not she was capable of i'm
| personating her. Every move and gest
ure showed the grief-stricken, jealous
woman then came the quick change
| with eyes, smile and cheeks burning
red. All is said of Miss Davis when it il
affirmed that she is a great actress
| Elliott Dexter who supports her viii
some day be a matinee idol. He is ONT
OF the most perfectly proportional mel
seen on the stage, and his work is OF thu
most pleasing kind He makes love il
the way men do; not in the way SOM
actors think men should. Mr.. Dexter
in few years will rank with the frs
| actors.
