CALU,IEr THEATER.

Three laughs a minute throughout
the performance is what is promised
amusement seekers at the Calumet the
alter next Thursday. Friday and Sat
urday, when the merry musical COM
medy. Gay New York" viii be pre-
scented by a company headed by such
favorite players as Jack Kloville Ada
Henry, Babel Bonner. Richard Bart
lett. Frances Rice. Al Nebur. VIII p
Conley. Robert Cunningham. Violet
Rio. Charles Croquin and Hulda Haw-
thorne.
Musical comedy OF big proportions is
a sign OF the times and there appears
TO be a fierce struggle for supremacy
going on all the while the majority OF
theater-goers keep in receptive mood
for entertainment OF that character.
Few managers have given much
thought towards the necessity of a
Mot. or at least some sort of compre-
hensive story as a background for the
fun and music features that come in
for a great share of the favors ae-
corded. and IT is therefore noteworthy
TO record an instance like Gay New
York" which has earned the right OF
way as much for its soudity of plat
purpose as is due TO the liberailty tha'
is said to characterize its other iea-
lures. Gay New York in ADDITION
to telling a really funny and consist
ent story will court comparisons con
corning everything that tends TOWARDS
actual greatness. and will aim to SCI
the pace for cleverness and Originality
and make an honest attempt in the di'
rection of picturesqueness. The scene
~ was painted by well known artists
Ernest Albert and c w. Valentine
and the costumes We're designed by
VIII H Barnes. Among the princi
pal song hits are Gay New York.

waved his hand. No human voice could
penetrate that great roar of cheers.
Presently it ceased for little while.
Then with all his vocal power Mr..
Roosevelt said:
MY friends and fellow citizens, be
as quiet as you can and I'll try to say
few words in appreciation of this
magnificent reception. This is the
most enthusiastic crowd-and the
largest one-that has greeted my ar
rival in any city during this great trip
through the southland"
Then the crowd began to surge. The
president held up a warning hand:
Don't don't, don't! my good people.
Remember there are women and chill
dren in the crowd. 1t is dangerous
Try to be quiet"
The president tried vainly TO speak
The few sentences he had uttered had
consumed nineteen minutes. and at 6:3l
the train was signaIed ahead. As II
drew out for Knoxville the president

lowed him as long as he was in sight

A report received today that four
balloons were seen twenty miles south
east of St. Joseph. Mo, was discomfort
ing for a time to the followers of the
race. but 1t was not verified and has
been dismissed from consideration.
All of the balloons have gone to the
east. and northeast. One vagrant car
was reported at 7:45 o'clock tonight
as passing Waukegan. Ill. just north
of Chicago, and on the edge of Lake
Michigan.
The balloon America reported that
it had been in sight of three other ball
looms during most of it's journey. One
of these undoubtedly was the English

France The race among the four is
being watched with great interest.

CHICAGO MAY GET BOTH
Leaders of Two Political
Parties Recognize City's
Claim for Convention.

Washington, D. c.. Oct. 22.-Chicago
promises to be the convention city for
both Of the great political parties
Thomas D. knight president of the
Hamilton club. today conferred with
Harry S. New. acting chairman. and
Elmer Dover, secretary. of the repub
lican national committee. for the pur-
pose Of having the committee select
Chicago as the scene of the next re
publican national convention.
Mr.. New stated that Chicago was in
every respect the ideal place for the
convention, and he raised but one OBJ
lection, and that was the inadequacy
of the Coliseum to accommodate the
enormous throng expected to attend
the sessions. He pointed out that the
Coliseum could seat only $500 people,
whereas it probably would be neces-
sary to take care of $4,000.
1t was hardly necessary for Mr..
Knight to speak to Mr.. New of the
manifest Advantages of Chicago as a
convention city, and he devoted him
self principally to explaining how the
Coliseum can be enlarged. He said
that the hall could accommodate 10000
persons without difficulty by the con-
structon OF another gallery.
Mr.. New expressed Willingness to
visit Chicago next month. He viii
personally inspect the Coliseum IN
company with Mr.. Knight and Stewart
Spaulding. manager of the hall.
Mr. Knight said he is confident the
democratic convention also viii be
held in Chicago. Roger Sullivan is
convinced there will be no difficulty
IN arranging this.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Oct. ga surg
ing mass of humanity that could not
be controlled greeted President Roose-
welt on his arrival here at Clio this
evening from Nashville. The presi-
dent made several attempts to speak
but finally gave up in despair. A panic
was narrowly averted, chiefly through
the presidents intervention. It was
the record breaking demonstration Of
the trip.
When the train arrived President
Roosevelt. who was riding on the rear
platform. was greeted with cheers. H.
Clay Evans was the first person recog-
nized by the president and was at once
invited TO the car platform The
president declined TO shake hands. To
a newspaper man who was standing
near the president said:
DO not ask me 10 shake hands. If
I begin there Will be a panic here
That crowd VIII surge in here with a
force no power can resist. I know,
for I've tried it before"
The president then sized up the
crowd that surged and cheered without
any indication that it would cease.
Mr.. Evans held up his hand for ST.

He wanted TO introduce the president.
The crowd felt fully acquainted and
deemed no introduction necessary.
Then President Roosevelt tried his

people in that direction cheered and the
president smiled. He leaned over the

that direction cheered. He looked to
the left and again a tumuit OF applause
greeted him. He smiled. bowed, and

through the state of Ohio with one or
two trailing in the vicinity of the

from in Chatham. Ont, all nine of the
big balloons participating in the sec
ond international aeronautic cup race
were still in the air tonight. Through
out the afternoon reports OF balloons
at various points in Ohio have been
coming in, while Detroit first sends
word of the contestant which after
wards passed over the Canadian Dor
der and was last seen at Chatham.
The identity of only four OF the bal
looms has been definitely established
through messages dropped.

American contestants, containing
Messrs. Mccoy and Chandler, reported
their presence first at Marion. Ind, and

Hershey Relieved Leader.
There has been much speculation
here as to the identity Of the balloon
which passed over into Canada with
apparently a wide lead in the big race.
The balloon is reported to have flown
two American flags, and this fact is
accepted by some of the officials OF
the race as indicating that the bal
loon is the United States. with Major
Henry B. Hershey of the United States
weather bureau as pilot
The United States was the winner of
the international race of 1906.
The balloon carried two American
flags. but all of the contestants were
decorated with flags ana bunting. and
there Is chance that the theory OF
the leader being the United States may
be upset The Aero club officers are
inclined to believe. however. that there
can be no mistake as to the identity
of the leader, and are freely predict
ing that Major Hershey viii be the
winner Of the contest. The balloon re-
ported at Detroit and later at Chat
ham evidently has followed the course
which Major Hershey said he WOULD
take.
All to Beat Paris Record.

made in the race at Paris last year

from jobbing and wholesale lines except
that filing in orders are Hight and that
the retail stocks are reported heavy.
"Other developments OF the week have
been encouraging. The iron and steel IN
dustries are actively engaged, current
production is. in fact. at the maximum.

turbances. taken as a whole, are not
serious, excepting at San Francisco,
where business has been brought TO d
complete atandstiH. and IN New Ye=..z.
r G. Dun & Co Review says
Weather conditions. unreasonable al
most beyond precedent. have retarded re-
tail trade and agriculture to an ex-
tent that cannot yet be measured, but
the loss will be considerable.
Ks indicated by the steady increase in
number of active blast furnaces during
the latter part Of April, the production Of
pig iron attained a new record on May ]

The outlook in this industry was never
brighter Steel rails are constantly or
dered much new business being IN light
rails for trolley lines, and makers Of ag-
riculturaI implements are purchasing bars
freely. Textile mills are still actively en-
gagged as a rule, but in the primary mar
kets there is some iTregularity. Cotton
goods are no cheaper. but the effect OF the
backward season on retail trade is felt

'As 10 woolens, mems wear orders ap-
pear less freely, and this slow movement
