Port Deposit meeting were postponed un-
til the December meeting. OF the official

vention at Los Angeles in October
Several women spoke highly Of the cor
dial treatment given them at Port De-

town. 1t is one long street built on the
side OF a hill. A Port Deposit child vis-
iting elsewhere said that lit was nice to
be in a place where you could go around
corners" Mrs. Washington Hastings

short, to the point and not prosy.
Mrs Smith Cooper. Grace Auxiliary
treasurer, reported $4,000 as the national
receipts for the past year In the last ten

pied by two very interesting papers on
Alaska" read by Mrs. Culbertson and
Mrs. William NJ. Field. Mrs. Culbertson

chilly subject that it was difficult to
throw warmth into it, but she gave a very
entertaining historical sketch Of the ma
tional refrigerator" Mrs. Field whose
talk was illustrated by photographs, had
visited Alaska in 1897. She went up with a
party who had the little steamer Queen
all to themselves in June, and came back
after the gold discovery when the boat
was overcrowded. She had been offered a
blue-fox skin. retailing at 500 IN New

MINSTREL ACT
AT OPERA HOUSE
Splendid Array Of Vaudeville
Sketches For Next Three
Days

A minstrel show, complete in every
detail is something new IN the vaudeville
line but patrons Of the Opera House viii
to-day see one presented by the Seven
Russelis on a very elaborate scale. The
act carries its own elaborate scenery and
the real minstrel FIRST part is there.
scenically the minstrel show idea is car
ried out to perfection. It is also carried
out In the show itself. The funny end
men with their jokes on the interlocutor,
the dances, the vocalists. everyth g found
in the first part of first-class minstrel
performance is there. Every member OF
the company is a minstrel comedian Of
capability.
Alice Mortlock and her company in
'Billy's Girl" would be acceptable as a
headiner in the majority of vaudeville
theatres. The piece is a one-act playlet
full Of delicious comedy and is in the
hands of a capable company. IL will be
found to be a most delightful offering of
genuine comedy drama Miss Mordock
is an actress Of established reputation
and there Is more than usual interest in
her appearance for the reason that she
has relatives here and is cousin Of
wilmington actress OF the same name.
Wood and Lawson are guaranteed to
be the best exponents Of eccentric and
hard shoe dancing who have been seen at
the opera House this season
Mickey Feely with his pantomimic COM
cdy will be a revelation to theatre-goers
here and wilmingtonians will have their
hrst opportunity in years to see real
exponent Of this art. Since he came here
rom Europe the comical Mickey has gone
INTO laugh getting competition with some
Of the funniest people in the vaudeville
husiness and won out by getting the most
lau.ns. Mickey Feely is an artist in
pantomlme comedy.
In selecting subjects for the pictures fer
the last three days Of the week an espe-
slal effort has been made to secure those
which will be especially pleasing.
The Opera House management Is giving
a quiet tip to its patrons and their
friends that this is the best bill which Il
has ever secured for the theatre. Baltl-

HEAVY TAX FOR
AUTOMOBILES
MARYLAND Commission FaVOrS
a Law That viii Make Rate
According to Horsepower

ELKTON, Nd. Nov. 1S-The COM
mission appointed by Governor Croth-
ers last spring on drafting a proper
law governing the use of automobiles,
and the tax to be paid on same to the
state, has about finished its work and
submitted an outline of the proposed
law to the Chief Executive. The COM
mission recommends that tax be charg-
ed on automobiles as follows: For
y to 2O-horsepower machines, s.; more
than 20 and not more than 30, 50; more
than 80 but not more than 40, $l6; more
than 40-horsepower, S24.
The Automobile Club Of Maryland
claims that such charges would be
exorbitant, and have complained TO
Governor Crothers. AS a result Gov
ernor Crothers has called meeting
of the commission for this week when
the objections will be heard. The
automobile Club has fixed the follow
ing rate for licenses, which they claim
would be sufficient: For 20-horse-
power and under Sc; 20 TO SO-horse-
power 80; 80 TO horsepower, $l2; all
cars over 4O-horsepower, SIS. The idea
seems to prevail that the difference
of opinion will be amicably settled.
