SHARP RAP FOR SHAW.
Wisconsin University Professor Criti-
cises His Recent Remarks.

Madison. Wis, Dec. 15.-Leslie NJ.
Shaw, former secretary of the treas
ury, who recently said that teachers
of sociology were either socialists or
anarchists, was sharply raped by
Prof. E. A. Ross of Wisconsin univer-
sity last night.
"I know of no sociologist in any
of the American universities who is a
socialist" declared Prof Ross. $50
ciologists are enlightened students who
stand for some particular policy in the
interest of the nation, such as educa-
ton, sanitation or forest conservation.
Socialists are those who believe that
there should be no private ownership
of income producing property.
"Mr. Shaw, who is a keen business
man, speaks from a selfish and COM
mercial viewpoint. Mr.. Shaw seeks
only business prosperity, while the So
biologist seeks the welfare of the peo-
pie and the nation. The normal man
sees farther than money"

most pleasing, and lot of comedy with
the baritone member leading, makes q
decided hit with the audience Several
encores were demanded at every perform

sketch of more than ordinary merit and is

The Majestic in this, the closing week of

the season. This may seem an enlarged
statement when past performances are
considered, but when the bill is seen this
statement is easily cOrrobo.>,ted. The
headline act is that of Dorsch and Russell

a lonely Rocky mountain canyon There
is the usual railroad layout the switches,
freight cars standing on the track the
moutains in the distance and bridge
nigh over a mountain pass The two
principals play the roles of station agent
and tramp. Every object almost is con-
verified into a musical instrument. Even
the switch standard is trombone in dis
guise. Another high class act is that of
Rinaldo. the tramp violinist- Rina1do is

Mr.. Henry w Savage is sending here
what is said to be the best company he
has ever organized to give the wonderful
Niennese operetta. The Merry Widow"
Those who have heard the opera declare
it is the best Merry Widow company
in the world and that means a great deal
when one considers that over three hun
dred companies have played the Lehar
operetta in Europe. The real secret of its
success lies in that splendid dance
creation the Merry Widow waltz and
the equally inspiring and exquisite tone
pictures appearing throughout the Wen
nese, score. The waltz has cast a spell
over the civilized world.
Owing to the phenomenal success of
THE Merry Widow it is understood that
it will be at least three years before all
the cities of this country will hear this
operetta, hence we should feel particular
ly fortunate that Mr.. Savage has num-
bered this city among those to be visited
this season
at Rowley's.

One Weeks Advance i'm Value of
Standard Oil Stocks

New York, Dec. 15.-Standard Oil
stock has increased 800 million dol
lars in market value in less than a
year. 1t is selling at $40 share and
a year ago touched $500. OF the in
crease in the market value, 40 million
dollars has been made up in the last
week since the principal witnesses
finished their testimony in the Stand
ard Oil investigation. Popular belief
credits John d. Rockefeller personally
with owning at least one-fourth of the
capital stock and some estimates run
as high as 40 per cent. so that his
share in the advance is anything from
80 million dollars to 120 million dol
lars. The company will pay dividend
of $40 a shore to its stockholders. This
will require 10 million dollars.
