Making "Stage Money

1t is curious coincidence that most of the "stage" money flashed by vii lans in melodramas, and for which there is so much blood letting and murd- CT in sensational plays, is made in Washington almost within the shadow of the Bureau of Engraving and Print ing. The demand for it has caused it to develop into quite little industry. It is widely used as property" for regular dramatic productions and also for amateur theatricals. It is engraved on green paper, like "greenbacks.

storm was centered over the northwest

out.

ally from the New England coast west,

instead of looking upon it as merely a
money making machine, to be used for
his own personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, he
will be public-s spirited enough to make
some sacrifice for the general good He
will be a positive force in his munich
pality instead of a small cog in great
machine. He will not dance merely
to the fiddling of some big political
boss. and above all, he will be careful
of the men he puts in Office. We send
men to college to learn how to pull our
teeth, to mix our powders and pills,
to help us out of our legal difficulties
and to fix up the right sort of doses of
theology, but when we come to the
divine art of city building we too often
pick up some one who has no more idea
of the great needs and problems of
municipal life than a hen has of archi-
lecture.
above all, the new citizen, the true
citizen, will seek to discharge the debt
which he owes to society. He will seek
to serve men, to contribute to the we'll
being of those who need his assistance,
to enable the poor to pass out Of his
poverty, to assist the helpless to help
themselves, to permanently ease the
heavy burdens of those who are over
burdened and TO see that affairs are
so ordered that those who are despised
and downtrodden may be lifted out of
their degradation till the almost OBJ
scured glory of manhood and woman
hood shall shine forth anew, till the
shattered and disfgured image Of the
men and women God intended them to
be shall at least in a measure be re-
stored.

meaning and linger with us long after

CHINESE ASSAULTED AND
MAY DIE FROM WOUNDS

Murderous highwaymen last night as
saulted and robbed Wong Toy, porprie-
tor of the Chinese restaurant at 512
North Los Angeles street. 1t is feared
he may die from his injuries. He was
found unconscious near the edge of the
curb. His watch, diamond ring and
money had been taken. Wong Toy did
not regain consciousness during the
night and the particulars of the holdup
could not be learned by the police.
When examined by a physician it was
found that the man had suffered sew
eral gashes on his head and It Is feared
his skull is fractured.
Wong Toy has been prominently con-
nected with one Of the Chinese tonRs
for a number OF years and it is thought
possible some enemy committed the as
sault and then robbed the body to make
1t appear as the work of robbers.
