THE SQUAW MAN. MAKES
HIT~AT CALUMET THFATtR

II. +. Pierce & Co.'S Associated Play
ers who appeared in "The Squaw Man"
at the Calumet theater last night
scored the greatest hit of their visit
here by their presentation Of Edwin
Milton Royle's American play, THE
Squaw Man."
William Jossey, an actor of great
finish and polish, who plays the name
part. made his first local appearance,
and the performance went on record
in enthusiastic approval of both the
actor and play. Mr.. Jossey has of
course the big part and plays it con-
vincingly and with a fine conception Of
the stage cowboy or cattleman.
The "Squaw Man" tens beautiful
and wholesome story and was elo-
quently presented by a company that
compares favorably with the original
one seen here several years ago. Be
sides Mr.. Jossey who shares honors,
Miss Blanche Douglas as Diana, wife
of the early of Kerhill, is very attrac-
tive and well fitted for the part. Rich
ardson Cotton as big Bill" makes a
direct appeal TO the audience i'm a care
fully drawn character. Edward West
field as Cash" Hawkins gives fine
impersonation to this old type of the
plains twenty years ago. Frederick
Monley as the old Ute Chief Taba-
wanna does his work i'm a pleasing man.
ner and his makeup attracted special
attention. U-Rich, Carston's In
dian wife. though with only a dozen or
so lines to speak gave a faithful por-
trayal of this character. Wayne Ross
as Bud Hardy got away with his part
nicely, and Joseph Kemper did some
clever work as the English fop, Sir
John Apologize. Miss Marie Bonsall
who has been here several times with
| Willard Mack, i'm the role of Lady Eliz-
abeth COVE an aristocratic air to the
part that was to be expected in the
mother of an earl.
Like all other plays presented here
! by H. l.. Pierce & Co., the "Squaw
Man" is well staged and they deserve
much credit for presenting such splen-
did productions. Tonight q farewell
performance of THE Squaw Man" will
be given and capacity house Is al
ready assured.

The collapse Of water tank on me
roof of theater I'm New York recently
has escaped with less attention than 1t
deserves. considering the frequency OF
such accidents, and the possible seri-
BUSINESS Of them. II is easily remem-
bered that within a month one Of these
tanks went from roof to basement Of
Montreal sykscraper and killed score
Of persons. In both these cases ii was
the deterioration OF the tank which
caused the accident II a tank falls
because fire has undermined the
walls Of a building IT is more excusable
than when mere laxness Of construction
or inspection permits a preventable
thing to happen.
The Calumet news. [volume] (Calumet, Mich.) 1907-1938, 1910-07-23

Il is the custom OF congress, fol-
lowing each national congress TO re-
apportion its congressional districts,
wherever and whenever the change or
growth Of population would indicate
such action advisable. At present
the house has S91 members and the
basis of representation is $4,000 pop
ulation to the district.
Michigan will undoubtedly show a
great increase in population when the
census figures are tabulated, says the
Saginaw Courier Herald In Detroit
the figures as unoffcially announced
show nearly 100000 more than i'm
1900: in Grand Rapids the increase
is over % per cent, 2jOO6; in Sagi-
nav II viii be something over 5000,
and elsewhere throughout the cities Of
the state there has been found a sub
stantial growth. In the present first
containing Detroit-and twelfth dis
tricts, the increase will be the larg-
est. The twelfth district includes the
entire upper peninsula, which nu-
merically has for ten years been the
largest in the state.
The question that will confront
congress viii be n stickler. Tn
doubtedly some parts OF the nation
have grown more rapidly than others,
and Michigan, which had two and a
half millions Of people in 1900, this
fa 1flrar.. 70
lion mark. on the former basis this
would give the state three more con-
gressmen, but II is improbable that
the present ratio will be continued.
More likely IL II that congress will
Increase the figure. possibly making
IL 10000. which would give Michigan
one ami possibly two more congress-
men. II the states representation
should be made thirteen members OF
the house Detroit, with its popula-
ton ~ nearly a half n million would
be likely 20 secure two representa-
tives. no change would be antici-
pated in the eighth district, which had
10000 in 1900. but is sure TO have
az least 100000 this year. Congress-
lonal lines may be redrawn I'm order
20 equaiize as nearly as possible the
district populations, but this would
hardly affect Saginaw or the eighth
district. Main interest in the COM
plete census figures for the state is to
