Travelling with Lyman H. Howe. At The
Colonial, Friday Evening.

Colonial friday evening.
Like powerful searchlight, Lyman II.
Howe's travel festival brings to light
those mysterious places in strange lands
of which we hear much but see little.
Those who will travel with Lyman H.
Howe" in The Colonial on Friday even-
ing, will see much that even the profess
sonal traveller misses. The beautiful
Gorge du Var in France, for in> tance, is
not a Mecca for tourists as comparative
" few have heard of it. Leaving the
continent Mr.. Howe will conduct his
"travelerS" through the highways and
byways of Algeria-into the hidden
mountain recesses OF the warlike kaby-
leS-and to Blskra-the oasis of pleasure
and fashion on the edge of the Great
Desert of Sahara. Then the travellers
will be quickly transferred to the ice
palace and winter carnival at Montreal
watch some eXhilarating winter sports,
and after trip through the wonderful
beauty of the snowbound Rockies, will
see the life in lumber camps in the depths
of the forests and how the giant trees
are laid low and shipped to the coast.
Only the privileged few are usually per-
mitted to see how the monster guns OF
our navy are made. Still fewer have
access to the fighting top OF battleship
when the huge guns are in action. But
all who travel with Lyman H. Howe"
can see the making of big gun at the
steel plant and then see it in action from
the coming tower of Dreadnaught.

The Matchmaker.

The plot of THE Matchmaker" is one
of peculiar interest, telling as it does the
story of priest in rough frontier town
where reverence for the church is among
the least known qualities. AS Father
DAILY, the kindly priest of Boom City,
Idaho, Mr., Sully presents a dramatic
portrayal that must be classed as his
best achievement. Briefly, the story is
that of a love affair between young
mining engineer and the ward of
wealthy ranchman, the latter being re-
jected sutton of the girl. Through the in
huence Of the priest, the lovers are finally
brought together and the ranchman is
made to see the error of his ways.

New York, Sept. 25.-Any attempt to
make flights in this country with u
Bleriot or Farman aeroplane, or any
other foreign made flying machine will
be declared an infringement on their
patents and will meet with the opposi-
ton of the Wright Brothers. An
nouncement to this effect was made
by Wilbur Wright in his aeroplane
shed on Governors island in connec-
ton with a report of the proposed i'm
portation Of a Bleriot monop1ane by H
Hayden Sands, of New York, and the
purchase of a Farman biplane by j. w.
Curseon, of Jackson, Miss.
IF these machines are brought to
this country for the purpose of making
flights, we will file suits against the
owners said Mr.. Wright Both the
Bleriot machine and the F'arman ma

THE PAPER SITUATION.
Publishers Committee Issues State
ment on the Subject.

New York, Sept. 25.-The committee
on paper of the American Newspaper
Publishers association has given out a
statement concerning the impending
trade issues between Canada and the
United States. The statement says:
AT the outset the dominion claimed
obtain their supply of pulp wood from
Canada the American paper makers
should not object to a reasonable rate
of duty on paper made in Canada from
pulp wood. A committee of the house
of representatives after a ten months
study of the subject approved of that
view which was confirmed and ratified
by the ways and means committee and
by the house of representatives. Sen
ator Hale objected to such an arrange
ment and the United States senate, to
please him, upset it and raised the rate
above that passed by the house. The
provinces of Canada now declare that
since the United States has refused to
admit print paper upon reasonable
terms they will protect Canadian in
terests by meeting retaliation with re-
taliation, and will force many of the
American print paper mills to move to
Canada.
Canadian retaliation will strike
American exports as varied as coal
and cotton. iron and meat, fruits and
automobiles, oil and live stock But
the most serious feature of the pros
pective war is that which affects wood
products, valued at $50, O00, 900 brought
into the United States from the domin-

Munsey Breaks the Wall Street Record
for Individual Profits.

New York. Sept 25-By stalking a
large fortune on the future prosperity
of the United States at a time when
business conditions were panicky,
Frank A. Munsey, the publisher, is
said to have cleaned UP more than
100000 profits through stock in
yestments made during and immedi-
ately after the disastrous financial
panic of 1907.
This winning, by reason of a nervy
personal bull campaign conducted
against the advice of many of his most
intimate friends, yields him one of the
biggest individual profits recorded in
Wall street
On steel common alone, of which he
is said to have had 100000 shares,
bought around the 40 mark, and some
of it as low as %, when the after
panic depression was greatest, Mr..
Munsey is credited with making So
100000, which the street consideres
plausible.
The balance of the Munsey holdings,
so Wall street hears, consists of rail-
road and industrial shares scattered
through nearly a score of CORPORATIONS

George, general passenger agent of
the Missouri. Kansas & Texas, of
new train which will be installed on
this road. between ST. Louis, Kansas
City and Texas. This train will be
known as 1.-THE Katy Limited" and
will be one of the best trains running
to the southwest, and one which will
be greatly appreciated by the travel
ing public. This train is really new

been built and it will be used to-
morrow for the first time.
The train will leave Kansas City
daily at 620 p. M; Fort Scott, $3.50 p.

nections for Topeka. The Katy
Flyer now gives a good service from
Kansas City, but the new train will
make an additional fast passenger
