WHEN PHYSICIAN
IS A LIQUOR
CLERK
Ruling By Internal Revenue
Man Which Requires Doc
tors to Get License.

Physicians who prescribe straight
whisky or other undiluted liquors to
their patients and fill the prescription
themselves are liquor dealers. This
is what John w. Yerkes. commission
er of internal revenue, has ruled on
the subject and to make the fact more
impressive he had ordered that every
physician SO prescribing and furnish
ing liquors to his patients must pay
the regular federal liquor dealers tax
of $25 year.
Hereafter the physician who stimu-
lates his patient from his private flask
is a liquor dealer. What Mr.. Yerkes
says in regard to the liquor traffic
goes unless reversed by the United
States supreme court. If. however,
the doctor is wise he can dodge the
tax by mingling some drug with the
booze. II this is done the concoction
becomes medicine and the doctor
ceases to- be purveyor of alcoholic
beverages. But he mustn't call it
cocktail. There's another ruling that
would get him on that.
The text of Mr.. Yerkes' ruling,
which was received at the Minneapo-
lis internal revenue office yesterday,
is as follows:
"a physician cannot prescribe, and
furnish to his patient, alcohol or whis-
ky. or any other alcoholic liquor not
compounded into a medicine with
drugs or medicinal substances, with
out involving himself in special-tax
liability under the internal revenue
laws. even though he thus sells such
liquor for use as medicine only"

Savoy Family Theatre.


This past week the performance at
the Savoy has been most suspicious
ly attended. Sid Baxter and Charley
Harris having attracted large crowds,
and the pictures and music being ex-
ceptionally good.
For the coming week the manage
ment promises an exceptionally
strong bill. Among new features will
be Hank and Lottie Whitcomb, a
celebrated team of clever comedians.
and Dracula in a new sensational act.
The Whitcomhs will present the
same act which has caused them to be
we'll known figures on the vaudeville
stage, a rural comedy entitled 1.-TWO
in Barnyard." It is very humor-
GUS sketch and gives Mr.. Whitcomb
an opportunity to bring in his various
animal mutations very cleverly rem
dered.
Dracula is a European Novelty Ar
fist and is unexcelled. by any. He car
ries an extensive list of scenery and
costume, and the effects produced
throughout his act are entirely new.
His approximations of Mephisto fol-
lowed by rapid transformations, word
sounds, Tightening, etc., are all in
spring.
His amazing exhibitions, contortion-
al feats, are exceptional. Besides
these features, the Savoy will present
new pictures, SONGS and music.

Over 1000 applications for descrip-
tons of the homestead lands have
been received at the Crookston land
Office to date from people who wish to
learn of the exact location of these
lands and are evidently intending to
file on them when they are opened on

arrived from Washington and the
force at the land Office have been busy
mailing them out to the many appli-
cants. The lands which will be open
ed in the CrOokston district are in the
southeast corner of Roseau county
and in the northwest corner of Bel

and the fact that they can be secured
for the mere living on them and by
paying $1.25 per acre for them is at
tracing the attention OF people from

R0selle Knott.


The public's appreciation of high
class dramatic offerings has again
been demonstrated by the remarkable
success of Roselle Knott, the we'll
known actress, who is touring the
west in her new play, "Alice-S it-by-
the-Fire," by ]. NJ. Barrie, author of
"Peter Pam" "The Little Minister"
and numerous other successes, and
which ran for one year at the Criter-
ion theatre, New York. The play is
exceedingly interesting and brims
over with excellent comedy and, at
times, becomes quite dramatic: The
company associated with Miss Knott
is one of exceptional excellence, in
Guiding Mr.. Eric Blind, Mr.. Robin
son Newbold, Miss Grace Gibbons and
others of New York reputation. The
production is the same which marked
its initial performance in New York,
and will be given in its entirety at
the Metropolitan theatre on Saturday
