JAS in life there are certain whom we never grow to dislik the theater there are plays whic lose their power of drawing an ciative audience. Of such was "Way Down East" presented .ls ming at the Hyperion before a number.
 The company appearing ht evening was enc of the best-h companies seen here in many Not only were they perfectly \ in their speaking, but one ran a play in which each membe the part so well by personal ance.

conservatism, has probably been nec- essary feature of our extraordinary system, Some mistakes have been made in the past, but in the nah the government has preserved a decent moderation in this regard.
 Ut remained for Secretary Shaw to throw all precedents to the winds and frankly avow himself charged with the duty of regulating the amount of cash held in the banks and thus arrogate to himself tue position of arhiter of the financial markets. This he attempted to do by manipulating the government deposits as he saw fit. But even MT. Shaw scarcely dreamed of going be- yond the limits of the surplus and pro- posing that the government borrow S100, 900, when it. t.already had double that sum on deposit
 "The Cortelyou three per cent treas ury notes are not only issued under an act which was passed for the purposes of a war-loan only and so of doubtfui legality, but they were unnecessary as subsequent events have shown, and furthermore they establish the danger ous and extraordinary precedent that the taxpayers may be saddled with g. debt whenever the banks are In trou- ble, and this too, at time when the treasury surplus is over $250, 00O0. The sub-treasury scheme of the popu- lists was no more radical
 If it Is said that an extraordinary emergency demanded extraordinary measures, it may be replied in the first place that if the money market had not had too much artificial relief In the past, the over-expansion that caus- ed the trouble might have been check cd, and in the second place such meas ures are likely to bring worse ills than they aim to cure. The government now has only balance of about fifteen million dollars outside the banks, and the deficit in revenues Is rapidly reach ing a million a day, It will soon have to call deposits for current expendi- tutres and also to take up the new notes.
 "Of course conditions may change s' that this will be an easy process, bu
 then again they may not, Somehow
 we always survive reckless govern ment flnanciering with fairly who'll skin, but such laundering as this i
 reckless, whatever the outcome"

Suddenly Steele ap- peared at the door of the room from the hallway and without announcing his mission, walked by the doorkeeper and Messenger Reed and then glanced toward Governor Guilds room, which was about thirty feet away. The door was closed. Steele turned around and drawing a revolver fired at Cohen, who was about six feet away Cohen's back was turned and the bullet struck the back of the head, passed directly through, and coming out at the fore- head, drove great splash of blood on the opposite hall beside the picture of Abraham Lincoln,
 The wounded man turned, only to receive another bullet in the head, which also passed completely through. Cohen sank unconscious to the floor. Steele then swung around and fired at Driscoll, the bullet infiicung a severe scalp wound. Drlscoll also fell un- { conscious to the floor. Huddell. in at tempting to close on the man, was struck on the cheek by the muzzle of | the revolver and knocked down. But l Steele made no attempt to fire again.

The DIGESTIVE IMPULSE

The DIGESTIVE IMPULSE is the life of the stomach. If this is weakened, crippled by abuse-eating improper food-the rest of the body suffers also.
 The BODY AND BRAIN are nourished through the digestive impulse. Food is called for, and, IF PROPER IN QUALITY AND QUANTI- TY, the tissues are repaired as fast as mental and physi- cal activity break them down. THIS IS LIFE.
 Grape Nuts food not only meets the requirements of tissue repair, but is a pow erful source of vital energy. It contains the vital phos- plates stored up in wheat and barley by nature.
 A food expert prepared this food so you can get these vital clements without bother, cooking or other ef- fort than simply eating it. Eaten slowly, with cream, it is delicious and satisfies the digestive impulse.'' It also quietly, systematically builds up brain and nerve.

fo others was merely a question of getting together Now and then a weak member stumbles or slips a cog in his conscience machinery, especial 1y when it comes to the advertising resolutions, but a little reflection quickly shows him his mistake and he then becomes a more robust upholder of the aims and objects of the organ ization, by the very reason of his blunder.
 Many a man has stumbled into morality through accident, just as a violent blow sometimes brings into life and action a sense that has become dormant through lack of use-merely a question of quiekening a sluggish conscience into activity whereby the heritage of all mankind, a selfish spirit, is brought under control. Com mercial success bringing honorable distinction is based upon wholesome selfshness, the kind that spurs men to achievement. Those of us who help make up the army of practical busi- ness men know that the doing of things for the simple love of right is the goal towards which mankind is striving, but unselhshness is not yet a dominant factor in determining the i present business policies and acts.
 Under the existing conditions that surround US, all the urgent pushing element is born of selfshness. Let us therefore try and refine it into the de- cent sort that does not overlook it's neighbor's interests in caring for its own. Pope said:
 TWO principles in human nature reign, Self love to urge and reason to main

MELLEN's DEFENSE
VIII Bring Out New Point in Washing
 ton To-day.

It is reported on high authority in railroad circles here that a new point will probably be brought up by the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad at the hearing tomorrow in Washington before the interstate com merce commission on the question of the cancellation of rates by the New Haven with the Baltimore and Ohio, the Reading, and the New Jersey Cen tral Railroad company
 The new point to be raised 1t is said will go back to the transactions of several years ago, immediately preeed- ing the purchase of the ontario & Western by the New Haven corpora ton. Not long before that purchase President Mellen sought an outlet by way of the Lehigh & Hudson railroad for business southward from the Ponghkeepsie bridge. The new outlet would have tapped several of the trunk lines and and given a new connection | for the New Haven with the coal fields Just at that juncture six of the trunk l line companies bought up the Lehigh 6 Hudson, distributing ownership among themselves in equal parts, and refused to let the New Haven partici- pate in spite of President Mellen's urgent request that they do so.
 Immediately following this Presi- i dent Mellen bought control of the On- tario and Western A meeting of the trunk line presidents followed, at which he was invited to attend At that meeting he offered to exchange the Ontario and Western for the Le7 high and Hudson, and, in addition, pledge that existing divisions of rates with the New Haven should not be changed. The trunk line presidents refused to aecede to this proposition and negotiations ended It is now claimed by officers of the New Haven that this blocking of the through route from Poughkeepsie Bridge southward stiles competition, and is in the na- ture of discrimination.

"The Blood is The Life"

Science has never gone beyond the above simple statement of scripture. But it has illuminated that statement and given it meaning ever broadening with the increasing breadth of knowl7 edge. When the blood is bad or im1 pure it is not alone the body which suffers through disease. The brain is also clouded, the mind and judgement are effected, and manyan evil deed or impure thought may be directly traced to the impurity of the blood. Foul impure blood can be made pure by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery. It enriches and purifes the blood thereby curing, pimples, blotches, eruptions and other cutaneous affections, as eczema, letter, or salt-rheum, hives and other manifestations of impure blood.

Reynolds Moves Swiftly


 the Guggenheims, it is interesting to note how thoroughly Reynolds has pre- pared for the coming com bat.
 Just week ago the mass meeting of Valdez citizens was held to act on the proposed Alaska Railway As everyone knows the suggestion was met with instant approval and large sums were subscribed to further the work. On Sunday Reynolds and the engineers and contractor rode over the line to the canyon and planned the work to be immediately taken up. All day Monday and far into the night the work of preparation went on. Men and teams were engaged, supplies were provided for and Antonelle and Banta were on the high seas bound for Seat tie to purchase equipment and employ additional men. Tuesday morning the Reynolds outfit were at work before daylight. aud the survey line was car ried far tU the front before the Valdez business men were out of their beds $. At one o'clock sharp Governor Brady was on hand to turn the first shovel and within half an hour the grade had been carried beyond the church cor ner. From then until now there has been no secession in the work, and Saturday night Stevens wired in from beyond the Summit that the reconnoi- sance survey had been carried ever that part of the line to be built before snow flies.
 On Wednesday Reynolds proceeded to organize the necessary subsidiary companies to properly reinforce the railroad building, and began to pur chase at fair price, the necessary lands for railroad purposes, and othe. bull- ings. Unlike the plans of previous outfits he will build in the heart of the present town of Valdez, snd every citizen will share in the prosperity and advance in values which the new rail- road will bring,
 The platform of the Alaska Home Railway is the fairest and squarest proposition that was ever offered to the people, and the unanimous sup port accorded the enterprise is ample -eviden ce of it's popularity.
 In order to centralize the financiu resources, Reynolds has organized 8 bank which opened for business with about sl00,OO0.O0 of local de. posits and resources of upwards of sl4,000, 000.00, besides his private capi- tai. Jesse Martin was appointed Cashier and entered immediately upon the discharge Of his duties.
 In all departments men were selected from the citizens of Valdez and vic't. ity It has not been necessary to i'm port single man for responsible position from the outside. If there were sufficient laborers available none would be brought from below, under existing conditions it vii bf necessary to bring up about 15OC picked men, These will be carefully selected by Artonelle with view tc their becoming permanent residents II the district upon the completion oi the road, and they are offered perman- ent positions during it's construction so long as they will fill the bill.
 In order to permit Guy Banta to give his exclusive attention to the rail-
