scenic and electrical eHects are salu
to be most elaborate.
While Gentry Brothers have been
visiting this city for twenty years,
always presenting a "tip-top," clean
and wholesome exhibition, it will be
news to their patrons to learn that the
exhibition which they will offer OF
Saturday is somewhat different from
the Gentry show which has been seen
here In the past. Animal actors no
longer monopolize the program to the
exclusion of all other kind of acts.
Five hundred four-foted fun produc-
ers, as the advance agent calls them,
still form the foundation upon which
the show Is built, but in addition
there will be seen a number of high
class circus acts which not only en-
ables the management TO present a
more diversified program, but which
frees the show from the sameness and
similarity, and at the same time adds
greatly TO the ring performances as
an entertainment The time has also
come. in the opinion of the Gentry
Bros. for all high class tent shows to
improve their street parade. In which

age OF their districts II they cans In
order to obtain the adoption Of pro-
iects which they recommend mem
bers are willing to favor the projects
OF others. What is true OF the public
building bill Is true of the rivers and
harbors bill
II Is understood that Senator Aid
rich has expressed himself as In thor
ough sympathy with the economy
policy OF the president and the secre-
tary OF the treasury, and has an
nounced his willingness to do what
ever he can to bring about an admin
!stration which will work efficiently
with the least cost possible to the PEG
PIE. II is because OF the desire not
TO increase taxation but to make tar
IN revision a real revision that the
senate committee on finance and the
administration are, opposed to increas-
ing the sources OF taxation.
The secretary OF the treasury has
been investigating a number Of meth
DDS which are costly to the govern
ment. For instances the system Of
ranking mail for members of con-
gress, public officials, etc. There is
an annual deficit in tn postoffice de-
partment which aggregates in the
nelghborhood of $1,000, 900. It Is
estimated that the Thanking privilege
costs $50 .O00, 900 annually. II is i'm
possible. of course, to abolish this en-
tirely. but at least a great saving can
be made. and Mr.. Macveagh intends
TO call the attention OF congress to
the possibility In this connection.
May Out Down Commissions.
A saving also can be made by re-
ducing the number of commissions.
Mr.. Taft has carried out the provis-
ion of law forbidding the maintenance
of commissions not specifically au-
thorized. but 1t is the idea of govern
ment officials that too many commits
sions are recommended by the exec
utive departments. Few estimates for
such bodies will be submitted in the
future.
There Is no doubt that Mr.. Mac
veagh has made an excellent impress
sion by the way In which he has been
conducting himself in the treasory
He is seeking to get
around his men who will be able to-
take from the shoulders the admin
istration OF the details of the depart
ment. reserving to himself the more
important work OF formulating pol

Mrs. Nora Jane Cleminson, the wife
of prominent young physician, was
found dead early yesterday morning

able to leave the hospital he will be
held until the police have satisfied
themselves as to the way in which
Mrs. Cleminson came to her death
DR.. Cleminson, whose condition yes

that Mrs. Cleminson was the victim OF
robbers who entered their apartments
during the night, administered chloro
form to his wife and himself and then
ransacked the house.

QUAKE CITYlS

Philadelphia, Pa, May 31.-Although
the Philadelphia Rapid Transit COM
pany brought men to the city yester-
day and during the night to take the
places of its motormen and conduc-
tors who went on strike Saturday, the
car service was worse today than at
any time since the trouble began. Less
than half the regular number of cars
were operated by the company. AT
$3.50 a. M, the company admitted that
only % per cent of its number of cars
was in operation. The strike serious
ly interfered with the observance Of
Memorial day, thousands Of persons
being forced to give up visits to the
cemeteries or forego their pleasure
trips to the parks and other places:
Every car is carrying two policemen.
On some of the lines four of them are
sent out with each trolley. Consider
ing the extensiveness of the strike ey.
cellent order has thus far been mair-
tanned.

TAFT WRITES AS
TOCONSERvA
PRESIDENT HEARTILY IN FAVOR
OF MOVEMENT BEGUN BY
ROOSEVELT.

Chicago, May 81 = In letter, said
to be President Taft's first authorita-
tive utterance on the conservation of
national resources, received here to-
day by A. W. Shaw, editor of the
Business Mans Magazine, the presi-
dent says:
"The conservation of the national re-
sources is subject which will prop
erly claim from the present admins
tration earnest attention and appropri-
ate legislation. The necessity for a
comprehensive and systematic i'm
provement of our waterways and pres
ervation of our soil and forests, the
securing from monopolistic private ap-
preparation the power in navigable
streams, the retention of the undispos-
ed coal lands of the government from
complete alienation, all of these mat
ters are vitally important to the peo-
pie of the United States and the busi-
ness men of the country"

Friedrichofen, May 81. = Count Yep

Travelled $50 miles in twenty-five hours
without making landing. The feat
eclipses anything that has been ac-
complished with either gas bags or
aeroplanes, as the craft was guided at
will and stood up to her rudder in
straight and cross winds Of varying
velocity and angle.
The giant air bag behaved beautiful
ly throughout the trip, and in all the
capitals Of Europe last night aero
nauts are marveling at her perform
ance and praising the determination of
the German scientist whose work has
been crowned with such success.
AS usual the count carried crew of
sixteen men. All had been carefully
trained by him on previous trips and
they handled the airship masterfully.

and experts from other nations wit

flight and the kaiser was one of the

Like to Work on Legal
Holiday

Washington, d. c., May 81. The
senators wore very sour looks as they
entered the senate today, because of
having to meet on q legal holiday that
most of them had usually devoted to
exercises in commemoration of the

taken UP for consideration the para
graph on lemons was resumed. Flint

proposed by the committee on finance
which increases the duty to one and a
half cents a pound.
The amendment was adopted 43 to
26. Foster, of Louisiana, and Fletcher
of Florida, Democrats, voted in the af-
frmative with the Republicans Root,
