ARABS AT DEVOTI0NS
STARTLE HOTEL GUESTS
Place Prayer Rugs In Hallway and In
Strident Tones Offer Their Sup
plications TO Mohammed

If you live at the Angelus hotel or
close in its vicinity, and If, at o'clock
every evening you hear strange weird
cries proceeding down that hostelry's
corridors, do not think you are 60
ing dippy and send for DR.. Bayless,
the house physician, in a hurry. 1t
isn't that.
But if you were a devout follower
of Mohammed, and your religion re-
quired you to get out your PRAYER
rug at 8 o'clock every day, face the
east, call "Allah II Allah" in strident
tones, and then say your prayers prob
ably even the select corridors of a
modern hotel wouldn't hinder you
either.
Anyhow, that's what it is all about.
Two Mohammedan boys, the assis-
tants OF little Emma Francis in her
tumbling stunt at the Orpheum, are
temporarily domicled at the Angelus,
and even the exclusiveness of that
caravansarie cannot prevent their de-
votions at the appointed hour, for they
consider the worth OF their immortal
souls of more consequence than the
comfort of the guests about them.
And so it is that every afternoon at
s, these two youngsters whose names
are Mohamed Sic Mohamed and As
asher Ben Hadj, gather up their
sacred rugs, which came with them
from Arabia, drag them to a spot
where they can fact the east through
an open window spread them care
fully, kneel. strike their curly heads on
the floor three times, and then repeat
their allah IL Allah" and the asser-
tion that Mohammed is his prophet.
and then begin their prisons.
"They always do IT," says Miss
Francies. who keeps a watchful eye
upon her charges at is part of their
religion; at 3 o'clock II is required Of
them Their contracts provide that
they shall never be employed so that
at that hour they cannot make their
devotions."

OLDEST CORDIAL TONIC
Los Angeles the Home of a Celebrated Make

The sun kissed California grape pro-
duces many good things to tone the
human system; none of which are
more potent than Independence Cordial
Tonic, which contains a large percent
age of pure grape juice blended and
compounded with medicinal roots and
herbs; and will rejuvenate both the
tired body and overworked brain. This
great tonic is not an experiment, but
has been tested by thousands and
proved of much benefit. The manufac-
turer, M. Faure, is the pioneer maker
of grape tonics, and with his intimate
knowledge of the grape as grown in
Southern France declares that the Cal
ifornia grown grapes have the highest
medicinal value of any in the world.
His laboratory is at Hancock and AL

THE PRINCE OF TONIGHT
MADE Big HIT AT FRISCO
Popular Musical Comedy to be
Presented in Calumet Thurs
day Evening
HENRY WOODRUFF THE STAR

Concerning the Prince of Tonight
met theater Thursday evening, by
Henry woodruff and competent sup
porting company, Frances Jollife,
theatrical critic OF the San Francisco
Bulletin comments as follows:
Mr.. Woodruff is presented this
week at the Savoy theater in a musical
comedy euphoniously entitled "The
Prince of Tonight" It has a plot to
1t, several catchy songs, three good
lines and some efficient actors That
is a high average for a musical COM
edy. The story is about a poor col
lege student metomorphosed through
the power of the century plant into a
prince of a night. The century plant
is personated by incense, and 1t is
strange how much stronger i'm sugges-
ton is that smell above the other
senses. Last evening the incense was
the most versimiar actor on the
stage.
Miss Ruth PEBBLES is n dainty little
leading lady and looks attractive
enough as the daughter Of multi
millionaire to be the heart-breaker she
is written down to be. She has
pleasing song in Follow the Rainbow
Trail" Yet l liked the little sister
better. She isn't as pretty as Miss
PEBBLES, she can't sing or dance, but
she IS natural and just the kind of

OF course Henry Woodruff I'm a
cloth of silver mantle is the whole
show. Mr. Woodruff's voice seems to
have gone back on him and he can't
sing and he doesn't dance and he acts
very little bit. But Mr.. Woodruff
has personality. I can't go as far as
to say magnetism but II is certainly a
personality that lntrigues one more as
the play goes on. That ii is always an
agreeable attraction one would not
say but it seems sufficiently strong to
ed out the blond star many times, but
his voice prevented a speech.
After all, IL is a foolish Anglo Sax
on prejudice that will not allow manly
beauty to display itself. And II is not
an honest one. We who live so close
to the Presidio know the effect of brass
buttons not only on the girls who look
upon their dazzlement. but upon the
men who wear the buttons. If an ac-
tor is made the way that he can wear

Ex- President Roosevelt is coming
home i'm regal state. The accomoda-
tons specially prepared for Mr.. and
Mrs. Roosevelt on the Kaiserin Au-
guste Victoria, of the Hamburg Amer
lean Line, are known as the Imperial
Suite, comprising five rooms and two
baths. Around the corner on the star
board side on the same deck i'm another
suite of three rooms and two baths,
which will be occupied by Kermit, Miss
Ethel and Mrs. Nicholas Longworth.
Above the Roosevelts is the Kaiser
deck, and above this is the sun deck,
where Lawrence Abbott, an editor of

tary, will be quartered i'm four rooms
Evidently the ex-President's habit Of
preparing copy" at odd moments
during the intervals OF other avoca-
tons was borne in mind by the makers
OF these arrangements.
The elaborate preparations for the
ex- Presidents reception at New York
on the 18th were perfected and an
nounced many weeks ago. 1t has been
customary in some circles 20 speak of
the Roosevelt homecoming as "the re-
turn from Elba." but Napoleon on his
landing I'm France received az the
dock no such greeting as will well
come Mr.. Roosevelt on his arrival at
New York. To all that has been done
by the state and the city both of
which regard Theodore Roosevelt as
especially their own and to what is
expected to be done on private initia-
tive. President Taft has added. The
executive department OF the federal
government will be represented at the
reception by Secretary Meyer of the
Navy and Secretary Wilson of the De-
partment of Agriculture. both going to
New York at President-Taft's request.
The President will also send letter
to Mr. Roosevelt by the hand OF Cap
tain Archie Butt, his military aide,
who was also the military aide of Mr..
Roosevelt.
There are some discordant notes as
the steamer bearing the returning
cowboy, author statesman and lion
hunter approaches the American shore.
For instance, one j. NJ. Lustgarten
writes TO a New York newspaper de-
claring that he ''would be the first to
send Teddy into permanent retire.

could get thousands TO do likewise.
Others object to the African hunting
expedition as a welter of blood, not i'm
harmony with the humane attitude
toward the animals entertained by en-
lightened people i'm the present age,
But when Kaiserin Auguste Victoria
reaches her dock all antagonistic and
critical feeling will be submerged. I'm
doubtedly the ex-President will have a
reception such as for warmth and
magnitude has rarely been equaled in
a similar welcome prepared for any
other individual in the world.
