AMPLE AND LUXURIOUS WILL Be THE NEW
ROLLER SKATING RINK OPENED TOMORROW

Tipping in any form is to be absO-
lutely barred from the Pavilion skat-
ing rink, which will be opened tomor-
row evening.
Not a single cent will be taken for
any service and the fiat has gone forth
from the management that any en-
ploye who takes tip will be dis
charged.
Everybody is to be treated alike
said j. E. Ransom. 1.-The one who
comes first will get skates first and
there will be no tipping allowed. We
ask the public to help us in this. One
person will be treated just as well as
another
Another special feature of the new
rink will be private lockers for those
who have their own skates. which will
save carrying them to and fro.
While the management realizes the
impossibility of making any difference
in price to the person who owns his
skates they believe that he should re-
ceive some favor and this will be ad-
justed by allowing a private locker and
key, free. His skates will also be kept
in repair and oiled as they need it.
This the management believes, will

There will be several instructors in
the new rink. 1t is the intention of the
management to have enough to take
care of all the learners.

SELL $3.50, 100000 IN MEAT.
-
United Kingdom Alone Buys More
Than 60 Per Cent.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Mch. 29.-The
total expectations of meats, dairy pro-
ducts, and food animals from the
United States last year aggregated
over $25O.OOO,OOO in value, according to
a statement issued today by the bu-
reau of statistics of the department OF
commerce and labor. This represents
an increase of As per cent during the
decade 1896 to 1906.
More than 60 per cent of last years
exports went to the united kingdom.
Even this large percentage, however,
is less than that of a decade ago, when
Great Britain took more than 10 per
cent of American exports.
Of the $25O,OOO.OO0 worth of meats,
dairy products and food animals pass
ing out of the United States last year,
S40,O00,000 was in live animals; $5S,-
900 900 worth in lard: $50, 100000 in ba-
con: S25,OOO,O 900 in fresh beef: $21.OOO,-
600 in hams $1S.0O0.0O0 in oleemar-
garine; $14,OOO,OOO in pork other than
bacon and hams: $4,5O0OO0 in butter
and $4,000, 900 in cheese.

One of the noticeable things about
the new rink is the convenience of the
Accommodations for it's patrons. The la
dies rest room will be fitted up with
touches, a lavatory, and plenty of tow
els, while the mems room will be
equipped with hooks for hats and
coats so it will not be necessary to
use the check room, although this will
be provided also for those who need it.
The mems room has been arranged
so men can smoke freely there and the
smoke will be carried out from above
through a ventilator specially provided
for the purpose.
The skate room, convenient to both
the ladies' and mems rooms, will be
fitted up with work bench for repair
ing skates at an instant'S notice.
unique feature of the new rink is
the swinging >bandstand. The normal
height of the structure from which
Edgar L. Smith and his fellow musi-
clans will discourse sweet music, will
be nine feet above the floor, but the
stand can be swung up alOft when it
would interfere with games of any sort.
All the large electric lights are also
fixed so they can be drawn up out of
the way.
The spectators gallery will seat $50
persons. The benches have been ar

VACCINE INCUBATION
CURES TUBERCULOSIS

BOSTON, Mass, Mch. 29.-The eX-
periments with vaccine incubation as
remedy and cure for tuberculosis
which nave been made for some time
past by the professors of Tufts Medi-
cal school and tf.. pathological depart
ment Of the Massachusetts general hos
pital have reached such a stage as to
warrant the belief that hope can be
held out to victims of the great white
plague.
The Investigations have been con-
Quoted with a view to obtaining a vac
cine that will so strengthen the disease
resisting properties of the human blood
that death from tuberculosis in any
form shall be occasional instead of
common.
At the Massachusetts general hOSpi-
tai the pathological department has the
experiments in charge, under the di-
rection of DR.. James Homer Wright.
There have been no megaphOnic meth
DDS employed in their work or in their
experiments. What they have achieved
up to date has been so remarkable and
so far-reaching in effect, and in the in
ferences which may be drawn from
the results that they have decided to
make public announcement that
through vaccine innoculatiOn the cure
of tuberculosis is possible.
In line with their experiments the
professors state a cure was effected
in the case of Mrs. Curtis Guild Jr..

floor is visible. Great effort was made
to make them comfortable. A dummy
bench was made and carefully tested
as to the width of seat and angle of
back to be most comfortable.
But the great thing about the new
rink is the magnificent floor. There will
be SOx12O feet of actual skating space.
The laying of the floor was completed
today. TIE maple, of which it is COM
posed. is said by the workmen laying
it to be the most perfect they have ever
handled. There was scarcely knot in
the whole shipment.
The beautiful floor, which is one Of
the largest in the west, will not only
be a rOOmy skating place. but the
management hope some larger dances
can be given there sometime in the flu
ture.
None of the special amusement feat
ures will be introduced at the opening
tomorrow night but the devOtees of the
