THE MERRY WIVES
OF WINDSOR

Seldom does an attraction bear the
stamp of novelty with as much grace
and distinction as the coming pre-
sentation OF The Merry Wives OF
Windsor and while the comedy is
one of Shakespeare's happiest con-
tributions, yet it has the novelty of
having been played more seldom than
any one of his numerous plays. a
fact that can be accounted for by
the lack of suitable material TO pre-
sent it.
"The Merry Wives of Windsor" re-
quires strong acst TO give it life
and vitality, and Louis James. thor
oughly aware Of that fact. has u-
gagged a solcndid organization ID

American and the child's belief that
she IS princess of the royal blood.
The good-natured people who have
implanted this idea in the child's
brain, little know the trouble il will
cause her in after life. The cleverly
constructed plot of "The Illusion of
Beatrice commences at the point,
when the heroine returns from school
to take her place in society and in
the household of her adopted father.
In this play, Maude Fealy has won
the greatest success of her career,
even greater than the successes she
achieved while with Sir Henry Irv-
ing.

Advance in Canned Goods.

By advancing the prices of their
canned goods since the new meat in
spection law went into effect, the
packers have virtually confessed that
they were practicing fraud and de.
ception upon the public before the
law forced them to be honest. An
authority who has been investigating
the subject states that prices of
canned meats have been raised from
20 to 100 per cent. Canned chicken
has gone up from 95 cents to $l.75
for dozen quarter pound cans, and
canned corned beef in halt pound
cans from $l.25 to $1.9O per dozen.
There has been no rise in the price
of chickens and beef cattle to warrant
such advances, and the cost of in
spection is paid by the government;
yet the packers insist upon the
necessity Of advancing prices if they
are to put up their goods honestly
and under sanitary conditions. 1t
is obvious that there has been some-
thing wrong with the goods in the
past. The people are now presum-
ably getting what they pay for, but
they have to pay we'll for it.-Farm-
ers Tribune.

Says Too Many Are Rich.

Melville E. Ingalls,, former presi-
dent Of the Big Four railroad sys-
tenn, speaking before the Economic
club in Boston, said:
81 am not in favor of taxing for
destruction, but the question is
whether we have not too many
millionaires for the good of the re-
public. believe that one of. the
greatest causes of the production of
large and illegal fortunes is your
tariff.
.'There would probably never
have been any Standard Oil Com
pany if there had not been railroad
rebates.
"For the last five or six years the
railroads have been crucifed, yet
there has never been a set of men
more anxious to conform to the law
than the railroad men at the present
time.
II believe in an income tax,
chargeable to all in proportion to
their income and would not favor
letting the inheritance tax take the
place of the income tax.
81 believe that the tying up of es-
tates for long terms Of years should
be prevented. Ii that boy in New
York had not been supported by
such an estate he would probably
have'been xn honest als6orer instead
of being on trial for murder"
"There is enough integrity and
honor in this country" he said in
conclusion, ''but if you do not ex-
ercise it you will come to socialism. :"

n the minds Of esoteric r

In the minds of esoteric pessimists
the world has come to an end many
hundreds Of times during the last
few centuries, although from pure
ly objective point of view it is still
pelting along through the ether on
the same old right of way it travelled
in the days Of the first Egyptian
dynasty. OF course, it may blow
up tomorrow, its atmosphere envelop
drop off and leave us grasping in
the naked ether, its orbit change
and dash us to the sun or any other
one of dozen cosmic disasters con-
ceivable by an imagination un-
trammeled by the facts may put a
sudden end to things terrestrial.
But there seems no more reason for
worrying about the imminence of
this unpleasant finale now than there
has been at any ether time during
the last 10000 years.-N. Y. Globe.

The Wealth of Iowa.

Iowa stands seventh among the
states in the matter of wealth, ltf
aggregate being placed by the
census bureau at more than $4,O0O,.
100000. 1t is first among the states
which do not contain any large city
The table prepared by the census
bureau shows that the relative posi-.
ton of the richer states did not
change between 1900 and 1904
New York still leads, with a total
realized wealth of more than $l7,-
OOO,OOO,OOO. Pennsylvania follows
with almost $l4,OOO,OOO,OOO
Illinois comes third, with s, 800, ,OOO,-
900. Ohio is fourth. Massachusetts
is sixth with less than billion more
than Iowa, with no large cities such
as San Francisco and Los Angeles,
but with corn fields that duplicate
any gold mines the world over.
Each of the states which surpass
Iowa in rank contains large cities.
New York has the city of New York,
besides others of importance. Penn.
sylvania has Philadelphia, Pittsburg
and others. Illinois has Chicago.
Ohio has Cincinnati and Cleveland.
Massachusetts has Boston. Lacking
any large city which takes rank
among the first score of the nation,
Iowa is far in advance in rank Of
several states which boast of large
cities; notably Missouri, with st.
Louis and Kansas City, itg aggre-
gate wealth being but $3,76O,OOO,
600; Maryland, with Baltimore, its
aggregate wealth being but 81, ,50O,-
100000; and Louisiana, with New
Orleans, its aggregate wealth being
but $l,O00,O00,000.
But Iowa's wealth is not confined
to the products of its broad acres
The census bureau statistics show
that the manufacturing industry il
advancing at a rapid rate. Iowa is
no longer merely a producing state
1t is rapidly taking proud position
among the great manufacturing
states. Iowa already leads the trans
Mississippi states in this matter O
wealth and has brighter prospects
than almost any other common
wealth.-Iowa State Register.
