CHORUS GIRLS HAVE
LOT OF TROUBLE
Hammond Theatrical Manager Calls
Wall Brooks Naughty Names and
Memphis Theater Goers Will Not
Be Able to See the Salome
Wrigglers.

Wall Brooks and his little company
OF high ksckers who have been doing
Salome stunts at Harvey Brooks the
ater for the past two three weeks
and have helped TO entertain and amuse
the people of this city for some time
tried to play steal away with the local
manager but did not get any farther
than the HOnon depot when they were
faced with write of attachment and
had to forget their dreams of dancing
before Memphis fOotIights and remain
in Hammond.
GIRLS NOT TO BLAME.
No one blames the girls The whole
trouble is laid at the door of Wall
Brooks, whom the Hammond theatrical
promoter says is nothing short of a
dead beat. 1t seems that the matter
OF financing musical comedy these
days is not all that it is cracked up
10 be.
In fact Wall Brooks. the manager of
the local chorus. was compelled to bor-
row s23 to pay off the girls and keep
the show going. Harvey Brooks let
him have the money and expected him
TO pay it back before he left town.
FOR REST OF WEEK.
The local enga cement was to con
tinue the rest of the week and Mr..
Brooks knew that before Wall Broks
left town he would have enough money
due him to make things all right.
But after Wall Brooks had borrowed
the $23 he did not seem to care for
the company of the local manager.
He spent a great deal of his time in
Chicago. Harvey Brooks suspected
that something was wrong and kept
a careful watch on the company.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Brooks no
ticed that the chorus girls were Wis
iting the dressing rooms one at time
and that they were carrying away
bundles of clothes on their arms.
TELLS HER HUSBAND.
She told her husband about it and he
went over to Hotel Majestic and en-
quired of Mr.. Glennon if any arrange
ments had been made for the com
pany's leaving. Mr.. Glennon said thai
he did not know of any intention OF
the members of the company to get
out of town.
little later Wall Brooks went tC
Mr. Glennon and notified him that hc
wanted to settle his bill Mr. Glennor
notified Mr.. Brooks and the manager
of the local theater got busy.
He went to Judge Jordan's court anC
secured a writ of attachment TIL,
drayman had been hired to take tn,
trunks away and was about to NOV,
them from the hotel when Constable
Allen placed a hand on Wall Brooks
shoulder and told him that he haC
better leave them in the hotel.
HIS PLAN EXPOSED.
The plan was to have all of the girl
ready, send the franks to the depo
with as little confusion as possible
and then before Mr. Harvey Brook
knew what had happened the gay lit
tie blonds and tie high stepping
brunetts would be on their way to oil,
Memphis.
But the little drama that promise
to end nicely with Wall Brooks wa
turned into a tragedy. 1t was nee
essary for him to be in Memphis to
day to ill am engagement this evening
Now that will be impossible and tn
manager of the Memphis theater vii
wonder what has become of the great
est show on earth.

CHINA'S ONE STEEL PLANT
MUCH BEHIND TIMES;
OUTPUT SMALL

Anyone with the usual Occidental con-
ception of the Chinese may have a
little difficulty in believing hat they
make steel in China, using their own
ore, their own coal and coke, and Chi
uese/ Tabor exclusively. All this sounds
.as AT the Chinese were really up to date
and realized, ike other folks. that
the present Is an age Of steel. But. on
the other hand, there is today practi-
'cally only one steel plant in the great
Chinese empire
This solitary steel plant has been IN
operation since 1894. but its output has
been increased so little in the fourte
years since, that today about the most
1t can do is TO turn out 5000 tons Of
steel yearly. When this is compared
with the 100000 tons produced in a
year in this country some idea may be
gained Of how far the Chinese really
are behind the present age in steel
making as in other things.
In this matter Of making steel the
Cnlnese have shown, more than I'm any
other field perhaps, that antipathy to
foreigners which has been fatal To Chi
uese development, for steel making re-
quires methods distinctly foreign to
China, Efforts Of foreigners to get the
government TO allow them TO develop
the steel industry or the empire have
been thwarted repeatedly, and today
the curious spectacle is presented or
the Chinese selling their best ore TO the
Japanese instead of making IL into steel
themselves.
At the present time the very COM
pany that owns the steel plant is under
contract TO furnish the japanese gov
eminent steel works ar Wakamatsa
Japan, with 100000 tons OF the best. mag
netic ore every year, the japanese pay
ing $50 ton for the ore at the point
OF shipping. This contract was made In
1900 and is TO last for thirty years.

THEORIES OF HEART BEATS
GIVE THE MUSCLES AS
The CAUSE.
THE CAUSE.

Is the contraction Of the heart con-
trolled by its nervous elements, or does
it depend upon contraction OF the mus
Giles independent Of the nerves. a re-
cent writer says.
These are the so-caIed neurogeuic
and myogeuiC theories, implying that
the origin OF the impulse lies IN the
nervous and muscular elements Tespec-
lively. The writer thinks that the COM
plete myOgenIc imuscular) theory has
the more weighty evidences IN fits favor
and should be accepted until stronger
arguments are brought against IT, II
IS not Incompatible with any Of the
known phenomena Of the heart beat.
while II anords the best explanation
of many Of them.
1T is certain that the muscle hhfrs
possess the powers Of cOntraCti.ity. exc
cltablltyr conductIyity, and touicity.
and u Is probable that these are ex-
ercised during the normal beat Of the
heart without the intervention Of the
nervous tissue II Is also certain that
all the muscle Gbers are not capable of
building up q stimulus for themselves.
but there Is evidence TO show that Ger
tain hbers Of peculiar structure possess
this property. While certain facts seem
70 md their readiest explanation ia the
neurOgenlC theory, especially the re-
spouse OF the Quiescent heart 10 the
HtllllulstLlou o. Llle dcctlerdlor nerve
there are others pointing as strongly 20
the hypothesis that the heart beat is
purely muscular.
This conception does not preclude the
possibility Of the beat being Influenced
by outside nervous impulses. This would
give q sufficient explanation of the
large nerve supply OF the heart Attrib-
uting the rhythmic power of contrac-
ton 70 he muscle is, Of course. only
a partial explanation Of the cardiac
beat, the cause OF which lies deeper in
physicochemical changes IN the cells"
