The Joseph Newman Company

Someone has said that Joseph
Newman could not head an opera
company if ne tried. AS an actor
he probably ranks with those
whom we confess to play minor
part. But so does Riley as a poet,
as did Eugene Field, and SO in a
measure do all those who with
simple jest, gentle and tender
pathos and sympathy play lightly
and sweetly upon our heartstrings.
And it is these quiet touches, af-
ter all. that do more for us than
the tense tragedy, the flight of
oratory. the display of pomp and
blare of the greater stage. And
so Joe comes to us to play his
little part, and to sing his funny
songs. and everybody is glad to
have him come. And he knows
how to surround himself with
other entertainers, who can assist
him with other phases of enter
tainment as fine as his own, though
different in kind.
In Miss Olga Ferlen. violinist,
MISS Clara Skeel, pianist and &C
companist, Miss Maude Norman,
contralto. and Mr.. Louis A.
Reilly, baritone, he has four tai
ented young artists. And with
two little farces to supplement
the regular program of vocal and
instrumental music-he promises
an unusually enjoyable evening,
when the company comes to the
Paonia Opera House. Monday,
October 3. 1910.

Niee's Pumpkin Festival.

The pumpkin festival at Nice is ono
OF those old world customs rescued
by popular sentiment from a gradual
decay that was Fastening towards OBJ
livion. II is a celebration singularly
unique. in that the widest exuberance
OF spirit alternates with serious cere-
monies. representations OF art and
prosaic business DEALINGS celebra-
tion so quaint and so little like the
usual productions Of modern mankind
that IL leaves one with the impression
OF having witnessed a scene idealized
upon the stage rather than an actual
festival of the present practical age.
Yet the pumpkin custom undoubtedly
reflects the character and Individual
ity of its resuscltators. the inhabitants
of Nice. whose deep religious sin-
stincts. innate refinement OF feeling
and intense love OF the beautiful were
the underlying forces which prompted
them to revive n time-honored custom
without the least trace OF vulgar ad-
vertisement or sordid materialism to
mar its perfect harnony.-wlde

A barrel has pieces cut out of the

water. oil or some poisonous liquid.
From the apex of a tripod that keeps
the basin from falling on the barrel

In the daytime the insects will be
attracted by the odor of the fruit. and

CARVED OUT HIGH POSITION
Wonderful Rise Of Sir Ernest cassej
From obseurity to Companion
Of Monarchs.

Sir Ernest Cassel. one Of King Ed
wards hosts at Biarritz. has had a
career full Of romance. the romance
of the self-made man. 1t seems like
a fairy tale that the unknown lad OF
the '7Os should now be the friend and
counsellor of the king of England and
the German emperor.
II is rumored that he Is one of the
six men who move in the mysterious
background of the government of Eng
land. says the Gentlewoman. He has
been the builder of his own fortune.
Money has grown under his hands.
and banks and railways have made
his vast riches.
One of the most dramatic moments
in his career was a Boer war incl
dent. The British government stood
in need of big sum at short notice.
1t was obtained by Sir Ernest in three
hours. Luck seems not to attend him
on the turf. although he once won the
Two Thousand.
Much has been written on Brook
house, his Park Lane residence. but
there has been scant mention of the
Turkish baths which occupy part of
the ground floor. nor of the marvellous
range of kitchens. There are six of
these. with marble floors and walls.
and they include pastry kitchens. grill
ing, roasting and boiling kitchens. a
vegetable kitchen and a room for fruit

WATER AN AID TO DIGESTION
Medical Investigators Have Concluded
That Plentiful Drinking at Meals
10 Distinctly Beneficial.

Medical investigators have reached
the conclusion that instead Of being
harmful to drink quantities of water
with meals 1t 10 distinctly beneficial
Recent experiments along this line are
described In The New York Medical
Journal. The writer says:
Not long ago 1t was almost the rule
Tor physicians to discourage the habit
OF drinking water except in minimum
amounts with meals, on the ground
that the gastric juice was thereby d.
luted and that digestion was impaired
and delayed. This opinion is still held
by many physicians. and is the pet
hobby of great many diet cranks
and cranks-professional and anna
teur.
"On the other hand. there have been
many who believed that an appetite
as widely distributed as the desire to
drink at the time of eating. an appe-
tte seen in so many animals as well
as In man. was a perfectly safe guide
to trust, and that 1t was obviously a
provision of Nature to supply water
which was needed at this time.
seems to confirm the latter view. The
work of Foster and Lambert has
shown that water is a distinct stimu-
liant to the gastric mucosa. and that
instead of the presence of water In
the stomach resulting in dilute gas
trio juice, it. on the other hand. occa-
sions the secretion OF juice of higher
concentration than under ordinary cir
cumstances.
More recently Fowler and Hawk
have made a study of the metabolic
influences of copious water drinking
with meals. A normal man. 22 years
of age. was studied for a preliminary
period and then for a period Of FIVE
days, during which he drank three
quarts of water a day with his meals
The result showed an increase in
weight of two pounds.

Engineers Report

To the many who are inquiring
about The Cedar Canal and Reser-
voir enterprise near Cedar in San

that 1 have finished the survey OF
two reservoirs this summer, one of
which will contain ten Thousand
seven hundred acres OF water one
foot deep with a dam requiring fifty
SIX cubic yards OF dirt to the acre
foot OF water. The other one will
store about ten Thousand acre feet
with less quantity OF dirt in the
dam. There is plenty OF dirt avail
able for building the dams at small
cost and the reservoirs are ideal for
holding water.
These reservoirs are SO situated as
to cover the entire valley OF thirty
thausand acres or more, by means of
about eight miles of ditch to the
upper part of the land to be watered.
There are three other reservoirs To-

The People S Rostrum

Newark Anti-Tuberculosis Association,
showing that the danger of the COM
mon n is not altogether a secret. The
public telephones which are used by
some many people daily are necessarily
more dangerous than private ones.
When this matter was brought to
the attention of the writer, it was
argued that the public should be ac-
quainted with 1t. AS I have been a
daily reader of your valuable paper.
and often find very interesting letters
in your Rostrum columns, 1t occurred
to me that my letter published in the

kind as to publish this I am sure that
the benefit derived from it will be
great. No doubt the attention of the

attracted to this mater by the publ

| ton by adopting the glass mouthpiece

that of Jersey City it is phenomenaly large. The miscresnts who

the chances of Jail without good recompense. And when they hire

funds are held. The Republican organization outlay N this cam

The phantom vote in Essex county is as naturally attracted by
the organization campaign fund as a molasses barrel attracts flies,
In Atlantic City and in the city of Camden there are indubitable
evidences of a very large false registration. The phantom vote is
rnarshaled and ready, as in previous elections when it made ma
jorites. 1t is in the power of the people to put an end to this
systematic crime, and that will be one of the meanings of the
election results on next Tuesday night.

THINGS HfDDEN IN STATE GOVERNMENT.

TT I will take some time, after Woodrow Wilson rs installed in
office as Governor, to search out all the hidden things in the
State government and show up the skeletons hong concealed.
The search will be systematic, patient and thorough. In his ad-
dress at Passaic before a great audience last night Mr.. Wilson made
his intentions plain. He proposes to devote all his spare time to
an overhauing of all the State departments, and he will do that
personally. He will examine into the actual needs and the expendi
lures of State institutions. He will smoke out the sinecures. In
brief, he will discover the reasons for the enormous cost of the
State government and for the increase Of it's annual expenditures
more than 200 per cent. in the last sixteen years. This quest and
ne institution of ordinary economies in the State administration
will enable a reformed Legislature to restore to the public schools
of the counties the large tax revenue that was stolen by the Legisla'
ture last year to make an extrsvagant surplus for exploitation.
When that is done municipal taxes will be proportonately reduced.

Give City a Square Deal

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
| notice that an attempt has been
made to discredit the administration of
Mayor Haussling, on the ground that
he has apparently closed his eyes to
many local conditions affecting the
moral welfare of the city, and his
critics have even gone so far an to cite
some of the alleged Irregularities that
he has permitted to GO on unmolestec.
OF course, the great rank and file
of u citizens know hat this criticism
is only campaign material, and that
our city, instead of being a hotbed
of vice, is really one Of the cleanesr
cities in the country in proportion to
its size and the makeup of it's popu-
lation.
The police records show that Newark
has less to contend with as a result
of the liquor traffic than Portland, Me-,
which is supposed to be a prohibition
town, and far less than cities all owe
the country only a quarter the size of
this city. Most of our people are very
well satisfied with the conditions that
exist at present; If they were not they
would not SO readily have swept from
power the people who in the not far
distant past tried to put the city on a
basis of unnatural purity, and who
sought to force a brand of morality
upon the people of Newark that was as
distasteful as 1t was impractical.
The people of Newark are law-abid-
ing, and as free from vice as the peo-
pie of any city in the country, and
their inclinations do not run in the
direction of violations of the law or
outbreaks against society or the princl-
pies of good citizenship. The streets
are safe for women and children at
all hours of the day or night, and II
gambling and other vices exist they
are sc we'll kept under cover that the
average citizen would never discover
them unless he went in search of them.
The charges made against the admin
~istration of Mayor Haussling are an
exaggeration of the most unfair char
acter, and while they will not tool any
n familiar with the local situation,
they are apt to give the city undesir-
able notoriety where the cal conditions
are not known.
We do not want or need that l OF
advertising, and while everyone Is pull
ing to boost the city and make II
we'll and favorabfy known to out
siders, these partisans come along, and,
under the protection of a political cam
paign, undo much hat has been &C
complished. Give the city a square
deal. FAIR PLAY.
