THEATRICAL
GRAND OPERA HOUSE

Mr. Hamlet of Broadway, in the per-
son Of Edoie Foy, threw off his inily
cloak and melancholy aspects for
canter amid scenes more whimsical
than ghostly Elsinore. In his latest
vehicle Mr.. Foy, as seen and heard at
the Grand Opera House last night, has
n melange of fun and song much bet
ter suited to his oddly characteristics
than the orchid, in which he cavorted
last year. Eddie actually created
laughter, a thing which he didn't do
last year in the Orchid, in the char
acter OF the mad Dane, who was iu-
weighed into assuming the part Of
Hamlet to please a shrew of a society
woman who was sore of the ennui en-
countered at hotels away off in the
mountains. What Foy, as Wheezy,
passed through before his final triumph
in the great garden scene of the great
Danish tragedy, was extremely anus
ing. But where were the hotel guests
and Yorick's skull? Alas poor Yoricl1!
Very little of the music of Mr. Hamlet
of Broadway is catchy, save one song.
That's AS Far AS You Can Co" It's
really too bad that so many pretty
girls in real. mind you, real bathing
suits, couldn't have been supplied with
bath tubs for a plunge-everything else
was ready The paucity of the girls
clothing was really Salomey. Maud
Raymond, as Mollie Brown, shared
honors with the star. She is an artist,
and her Ophelia provoked roars of
laughter. Miss Raymonds Dusky
Salome caught the house. The
sublimity of Shakespeare's immortal
tragedy being subjected to the ridicul-
Gus only goes to show that the step
from the sublime to the ridiculous is
but a few steps. The audience was
large and the show was keenly en-
joyed.

LUMBER LABoRERs GET.
HIGHER WAGES IN CANADA,

The Senate has refused to take
the tariff Off lumber. No well-in-
formed Republican can defend this
tariff, and no wise one will attempt
to do so. The Republican idea of
the tariff is that 1t should he high
enough to protect American labor
from the competition Of low-paid la
hOr abroad and that there should nj
so he included n reasonable profit To
the manufacturer. This is the plat
form definition or measure Of the
tariff. How does 1t work out in
practice? The tariff on lumber
ought to insure the American work
man higher wage than the lumber
worker across the border. Yet
Theodore NJ. Knappen of the Ma
tional Forest Conservation League
submitted to Congress extensive
tables which show that higher wages
are now being paid in both the mills
and the logging camps of Canada
than in the United States. II fol-
lows, therefore, that the workmen
here need no protection and If the
manufacturer is getting his labor
for less than his nearest competitor
abroad, then in that fact alone lies
u reasonable profit for him. Why n
tariff? Here is the explanation and
it clearly shows the character of the
work the Republican Congress is
doing against the public interest-a
tariff operates to restrict the volume
of imported lumber and to increase
its price. II it is retained the value
of the stumpage holdings is en-
HANGED and the power of the lumber
men TO dictate prices is continued.
Does this not show in whose inter-
est the tariff is being made?-C. Q.
