CAUSE Of THIS FIRE.

After making full investigation of
the fire which destroyed the barn
at the home of H, Epstein, 925 South
Cherry street, a few weeks ago, Dep
uty State Fire Marshal Hartupee de-
clares that it was the work of an in
cendiary.
There is no evidence to show who
applied the torch. The owner of the
stable declares that he was not in it
after 8 o'clock and that tAase was no
stove in the barn.
The loss was small.

LIPPINCOTT's MAGAZINE.


With the dawn of the new year,
the magazine world puts it's best foot
forward and proceeds to fulfill prom
ises made in enticing forecasts Of good
things to come. One of the most inter
esting of these 1910 publications is
the January Lippincott's, which does
not at all suffer by comparison with
its Notwithstanding Christmas is
sue. the complete novel is "The
Heaven of the Unexpected" by Lucy
Meashem Thurston. This writer's
name is comparatively unknown to
the reading public, but any one who
can write stories so absorbing as The
Heaven of the Unexpected" is not like
ly to remain unknown long. The
scenes are laid in New York and in
Southern mountainous region. The
haracter-drawing is cleverly done,
and the local color excellent. The au-
thor has a rather unusual, tense style
of writing which grips the reader and
quite refuses to let go. A most inn
portant feature is the first of a series
Of articles on What is Wrong with
Our Public Schools" The author is
Joseph M. Rogers, who some time ago
contributed a series called Educating
Our Boys" to this magazine. Mr..
Rogers spent many months acquiring
data for these papers, and they are
both interesting and informative. The
school-house, even more than the bat
tleship, is the bulwarlz of our nation,
and, whether you have children of
your own or not, you will find in this
series much to interest you, much to
make you think. Brief articles on
topics of current interest will be
found in the department, Ways of
the Hour"

Hiccoughs in babies, while not SER
ious, are rather uncomfortable and
distressing. They are caused by a
spasmodie contraction of the dia.
rhragm. A very simple means of re-
lief is to place upon the tongue few
grains of granulated sugar, which, as
they dissolve, pass slowly down the
throat. This or little hot water Civ
en- in dropper very slowly will cause
a cessation of these paroxysms.

CASSIER,S MAGAZINE.

Among the notable articles with
which Casters Magazine begins the
New Year may be mentioned the pa
per by Mr.. Wilson upon the Natural
Resources of New Zealand, showing,
with numerous beautiful illustrations,
the great wealth of the colony, not
only in gold and in agricultural re-
sources, but also in coal, timber and
other materials. In this number also
are papers of interest both to the en-
gineer and to the general reader, in
cluding the conclusions Of the papers
of Mr.. Springer on Cranes and Hoist
ing Machinery, and of Mr.. Shaw, upon
the Development of the Planning Ma
chine, the latter paper especially in
dicating the great increase in speed
and capacity of modern machine tools.
WoMAN's HOME COMPANION.
We find attractive special features
in this number. A double page of pic

work of modern European masters;
there is also a large full page paint

most popular actress, Ethel Barry

ADJUSTMENTS
1.-THE Ginqerbread Man.

The trend of popular opinion seems
to be desire to see something more
tangible and something more on the
order of the old style entertainment
than what has been in vogue the past
few years. In fact, the desire seems
to be more for a good clever story
and a plot of merit than the usual
frothy musical comedy style of en-
tertainment; hence the Waltz Dream.
the Merry Widow and the Ginger
bread Man, and ono commences to
realize that comic opera more than
musical comedy of the so-ealled COM
edies with music are hardly satisfy
ing.
The Ginger Bread Man is of the
class that appeals to one mentally as
much as it does to entertainment for
the time being, with a clever plot,
unctious comedy, and melodies that
appeal to the ear. 1t pleases an in
telligent class of theatre goers.
1t is called a fantasy, but the char
acters are all logical and one that
we can readily associate with those
that good authors have presented to
us from time to time The story of

turn, helped along with good lyrics
and tunes that have an undeniable

to please the most exacting, the mu-
sically cultured or the mere seekers Of
entertainment.

the Keylor Grand theatre Wednesday
evening, May 18th.

FORTY YEARS AGO TODAY LAST
SPIKE IN PACIFIC RAILROAD
WAS DRIVEN.
Four Decades Ago That the Work o
Connecting East and West Was
Finally Completed.

CHICAGO, May 10.-Forty years ago
today the last spikes were driven in
the first railroad to link the Pacific
coast with the rest of the United
States. So the year which marks the
ninety ninth anniversary of Lincoln s
birth marks also the anniversary by
sixty years less of the Pacific railroad
which he did so much to encourage.
For it was Lincoln, who, perhaps,
showed more faith and enthusiasm than
any public man of his time in a trans
continental road.
Things were different on that May
day of 1859. although the whole coun-
try, which so long had held aloof from
the Pacific railroad projects, seemed
to awaken and realize the meaning of
the ceremony which was being per-
formed at the little town of Promon-
tory. in Utah, six hundred and thirty
eight miles east of Sacramento
Few persons gathered to witness the
event as compared to the number that
had attended the far more imposing
ceremony when ground was broken in
Omaha in 1864. And yet the whole
country gave ear, as it were, to the
sound of the hammer strokes which

Prosperity Shown by Receipts.

WASHINGTON, May 10,-An in
creased wave of prosperity is sweeping
over the United States, according tC
that usually accurate barometer OF
prosperous conditions-the gross posta
receipts. The receipts at fifty of the
largest cities for the month of March
last show an increase over the same
month last year of $1,17S,921, or 14.5C
per cent, the normal rate of increase
being about five per cent. Similar
statements show increases for January
last of SOC per cent, and for February
of 4.73 per cent over the same months
of last year.
Postmaster General Hitchcock de-
clares that while the boom in the bust
ness of the department is very graft
flying to him, it will not materially re-
duce the anticipated deficit for the
fiscal year.

In the presentation of La Pel,e

last night, the Curtiss Comedy Com

some of the best work OF the present
engagement. The plot is well known
as one possessing many interesting
and entertaining features as well as
Occa sional flashes of highly amusing
comedy Miss Howard in the title
role was eXcellen and received a
hearty reception. The Misses Can
wright and Drummond were both
highly pleasing in their respective
roles and the work Of the male mem
bers of the cast, including Messrs.
Mayo Curtiss, Kehoe, Routh, Mattot
and Smith could not have been i'm
proved upon.
Tonight the Curtiss Comedy COM

is assured.
