AT THE oRPHEuM.

Last night at the Orpheum the
crowd was not as large as 1t would

house. Each attraction was head

and the miniature drama Is a gem.
The Millards have a bright little COM
edy sketch Inc The Clodhopper and the
Girl, and the singing and talking
stunts are strictly down to-now. They
received many laughs from the audi
ence. Miss Grace Ferrard, one of the
best known character actresses was
also on the bill in a comedy sketch.
Miss Ferrard was the original MRS.

which she won her reputation by her
reputation by her ability to enact
the part of the little good hearted old
lady. The Scotch Macks have a neat
act consisting OF Scotch dances and
real Scotch songs. They were loudly
applauded and seemed to please the
audience. The pictures are better

week,e and taking II altogether the
bill was worth many times the price

After few days absence, Prest-
dent Creegan returned today and was
present at chapei Inls morning He
gave an excellent talk on the Hawaiian
island and the city of Honolulu, which
he visited on his recent tour OF the
world.
He first spoke of the historical facts
concerning it's acquisition by the
United States and OF the people who
first went to those islands to civilize
the savage inhabitants. There now
stands In the city of Honolulu q
church costing $4,000, which gives
more toward benevolent purposes than
any other church In the world. There
are also many other schools and
churches in this beautifuI island city.
President Creegan dwelt at length
on the beautiful scenery of the Ha-
waiiah islands and Of the wonderful
sunsets, which he said were only ex-
celled in North Dakota. The museums,
the palatial dwellings, and the grand
rows of palms make Honolulu city
beautiful indeed.
On the Journey across the Pacific,
President Creegan spent glorious
double Fourth Of July" He described
the big celebration. OF which he was
chairman, and said 1t rivaled any cele-
bration in the states. On account of
the fact that day Is gained in cross

to spend two days as the national
birthday. He told Of the speeches
from distinguished men and of the mu-
steal selections from various celebri-
ties in the party. On the second

descriptions. President Creegan hoped
many of the students Of the college
would have an opportunity to visit the
Hawaiian islands at some future time.

Where the Smart Set acquires the
vulaar Art In Dancing,
Memphis Commercial Appeal 1t Is
a sad commentary to think that our
refined society has to go TO the slums
for new dances.
If people were more consistent such
dances would not be tolerated as "the
turkey trot.' the grizzly bear and
others.
Both Of these dances originated In
the Barbary Coast OF San Francisco.
and anyone who knows anything
about the Barbary Coast knows that 1t
is the resort Of the toughest element
In the western metropolis.
Most OF the inmates OF the San
Francisco disorderly houses are FREE
quenters Of the coast. The most det-
rimental feature OF 1t all Is that many
of the leading dancing teachers OF the
country yearly visit this notorious
place to become inspired with new
ideas and new dances.
These dances originate among
people who have thrown aside all
sense OF decency. They live a life Of
lust They have surrendered to the
embrace OF passion and are not at all
sensitive about their dances
Like mushrooms In the night dance
halls have sprung into existence in
nearly every city Of the United States.
These dance halls are usually patron
lied by the young and unguided. In
crowded sections OF the city, In tene-
ments and boarding houses. Where
girls have no opportunity Of meeting
their boy friends without being SUBJ
ject to comment and gossip, they meet
them elsewhere, and 1t Is usually at
the public dancing schools. as some OF
them are called, or dance halls. as they
all really are. Here other men are
met, and there are men who make it d
business to visit such places for the
specific purpose OF preying on inno-
cenca.

ence OF the music and the effect of the
surroundings have q vicious effect on

WOMAN'S CHRISTIAN
 TEMPERANCE UNION

The full ravsges of alcohol are not measured even by the ap- palling list of killed and wound ed. War kills and wounds; alcohol kills and wounds 10000 times more than all war combined and in addition it degenerates. It's toxin attacks with special virility the young tender cells associat- ed with evolution. A plant or vegetable or fruit steadily evolv- ing some color or form under the process of cultivation when watered with water to which a small quality of alcohol is added, will quickly cease to evolve, and will lose the color and form and revert backward toward the con- dition when it grew wild. If a young domestic animal is brought up on a fare to which a small ration of alcohol is added by the time it is grown it will lose those qualities acquired in domesticity.
 No matter how high the stage of evolution, the result is the same.
 The government long since recognized the evil effect of .alco- hol on the Red Man and absolute ly prohibits the introduction of alcohol into an Indian .Reserva- tion.
 A white man with great self control, considerate e n d e r. hearted, who would not harm an insect, will be degenerated by regular use of alcohol to the point where he will strike with a dagger or fire shot to kill, with little or no provocation.

THE RAILROAD
 RATE PROPOSITION

The railroad rate proposition has come up again in the legsla- ture, through bill introduced by Senator Christian providing that the rate on railroads over 90 miles in length shall be , 1.2 cents per mile. The bill has been read twice and referred to the committee on railroads.
 The act of 1907 fixing the rate at ? cents mile has been fight ing it's way through the courts ever since, and a federal court has asserted that ? 12 cents a mile would be an equitable charge. Most of them are charg- ing 3 cents again, pending final determination of the cases, but it is hpoed that the passage of the Christian act will validate a rate that will be acceptable to railroads and travling public alike.
