Saloonmen in all cities in the
state of Washington are bitter in
their. complaints of the way they
say they are treated in the matter
of selling liquor to men who have
been posted. In this state as
soon as man has been adjudged
of being a habitual drunkard no.
tice of the fact is sent to the sa-
loonkeeper, but all the liquor
dealer has to go on is the name,
The man may be short or tall, fat
or slender, dark or light, but the
|saloonman has no means of find
ling out about these things-unless
he happens to sell liquor to the
"habitual."
In Ohio they are fixing up q
scheme that they think will be
more fair to saloonmen.

AT THE GRAND

Sidney Grant, the little man
with a big line of talk, fairly
walked away with his audience at
the Grand last night and, by the
time he had finished his trio OF
encores and had been allowed to
leave the stage, the crowd was
hoarse from laughing. "Sid"
only has q monologue, but II
proves to be the greatest laugh
producer and the ''livest" bit OF
work in the whole bill.
8 Harry LeClaire is featured as
the big act on the bill, however
and 1t is probably due to the
prominence of his name on the
program that the audience con
descends to applaud his efforts
AS far as impersonating leading
lactresses, LeClaire evidently goei
through his performance some

The magic ring that the love and

about him has protected him.

AT THE PANTAGES.

Seldom in the history of Taco
ma vaudeville stages have acts
been presented that could equal
the "Des Apaches de Paris" act
at the Pantages this week. Ane
scene depicts an ale room in the
Apache" district of Paris, a dis
trict that is considered by police
authorities to be several times
tougher" even than New York g
Bowery. The act is done in pam
tomime, and finishes with the fam
GUS Apache dance, a dance that,
although not graceful or even
slightly to American eyes, set the
Partisan underworld in a whilf
Of excitement at its first appear
ance. The only thing to be de-
plored about the act is that the
foreign atmosphere causes the eff
feet to be lost on American aud
fences and even clouds the per-
formance.
Aneta Primrose does a charac-
ter change performance that is
most creditable, making all her
changes directly nfront of the
audience. Her "Brudda Sylvest"
song is exceedingly clever.
1.-THE Impostor," presented by
May Durea and company, is as
good as the average half-under-
standable vaudeville skits, and
but for the vivacious acting of
Miss Durea would be a miserable
failure.
Otto Sheda, known on the
stage as "Paganinni's Ghost" does
everything with his violin except
it talk. He received sew
eral encores last night, and de-
served several more.

1.-THE hide and bone are very
thick and 1t takes heavy bullet
to kill 1t, unless q good shot hits
behind the ear or in the eye. To
kill one at single shot as Colonel
Roosevelt did usually is sign of
fine Workmanship.
II hope Colonel Roosevelt does
not kill another, because am OPP

a source of amusement, and /

agrees with me. When he left
New York he said that he would
hunt simply to secure specimens
for the museum, and would not
kill Unfortunately.
ITO kill for science is credit
able, but to kill for pleasure is

NEW YORK, May IL. - Baby
Dobbs was born in one of those
dingy, dirty. crowded, airless tene-
ments so frequently seen In the ma
tons metropolis.
The first thing he wanted was
milk. Poor, emaciated Mrs. Dobbs
couldn't nurse the baby. 1t was SO
weak and tiny that strong cows
milk would kill it. Besides Mrs.
Dobbs didn't have the money to
buy the cows milk.
Here was urgent need. And at
once the baby lovers rushed to the
firing line.
There are 20 milk stations in
New York. Mrs. Dobbs had no
money, so she was not asked to
pay. The store milk, filled as the
doctors say, with germs, would
have cost Mrs. Dobbs cents a
quart. The kind of milk that was
given her at the station costs
cents a quart, because it comes
from herds that are kept expen-
sively clean. More than that, 1t is
pasteurized, with heat al d cold, sc
that it is germ-clean, and 1t is
weakened with sugar and water to
suit Baby Dobbs' weak stomach.
This good milk Mrs. Dobbs got
for nothing.

Here's the story a Baby Dobbs,

New York has done more for Its
babies than any city in the country.

Then a nurse dorpped in to see
Mrs. Dobbs. There are about 200
| of these nurses in New York. They
each get $3.50 a year.
Even with the clean milk there
was danger of Mrs. Dobbs letting
| it become dirty. The nurses told
Mrs. Dobbs lots of things; not to
feed the baby twice out of the
same botle-yes, IL the baby
doesn't drink it all, throw it away;
there's plenty more where 1t came
from; to keep the baby clean; not
to feed it just because it cries;
not to give it anything but milk.
In the old days Baby Dobbs
would have died. Instead he
gained pound week under this
fight for his life.
After awhile the nurse comes
again. New York city is Jealous
of its babies, you see, and the
nurses eye is the kindly watchful
eye of the great city. She looks
at the baby. 1t is stronger; 1t can
take stronger milk. She writes q
prescription and the next milk for
Baby Dobbs is a little more like a
baby's food.
One night Baby Dobbs had the
collie. In the old days he would
have died, right there. But Mrs.
Dobbs sends for the doctor. There
are 80 doctors, who get $1,000 a
Year just to take care of the Baby
Dobbses. He acts like a doctor
too; he is working for a patron
who is to be respected.
Baby Dobbs gets well again.
Summer comes, with its terrible
heat. Now death stands very
close to Baby Dobbs. Hand to
hand, now, the great force on the
firing line for the babies is fight
ing for this baby's life.
The city has IL great piers for
the children, where cool breezes
blow. There is Sea Breeze, and
Sea Breeze, Jr. There are the
steamboats, that are operated al
most every day, by some church,
such as st. Johns chapel. These

Baby Dobs is welcome to stay at

Igreat; no expense too heavy!
The money is there to save lives

All this time Mrs. Dobbs is be-

battle Baby Dobbs; how to keep
his milk cool; how to sew for him;
how to cook for him, when he
passes the milk stage.
1t costs over $4,000, 1t is esti-
mated, to teach the Mrs. Dobbses
of New York how to help save the
lives Of their own babies.
Bigger, fatter and happier, Baby
Dobbs gets. The million-dollar
recreation piers are not SO enter
taining to him as they used to be.
He wants sand to play in, as well
as fresh air.
There are the Fairgrounds. New
