No Panic Nowadays.

In the old days the news that eight
deaths from cholera had occurred on
an island in New York bay would
have occasioned panic. People would
have fed from New York and from
most of the other eastern cities. Now
1t is merely an item Of news, over
which nobody grows particularly ex-
cited. Millions In the metropolis, only
few miles distant from Swinburne
island, where the cholera cases are
treated. go about their business with
unconcern. They know that between
them and the infection Is DR.. Doty.
Buttressed by science and supported
by his corps Of trained assistants, he
Is equal to the contest That is what
the age Of reason has accomplished for
mankind The DR.. Dotys, fortified by
knowledge, hold the terrors of old at
bay. Cholera comes, and they close
the door In it's face The bubonie
plague appears on the Pacific coast,
but goes no farther and is allowed to
gain no real foothold even there.
Smallpox is made mild and innocuous.
The old trinity of terror were war,
famine and pestilence. Science has
driven war into the shadows outside
Of civilization, has rendered famine
next to impossible and has put up the
bars against pestilence If a man of
100 years ago were told these things
he would call them miracles. Yet
they are only the result of the apeli-
cation of reason. Men have gained
more knowledge, more self reliance,
more mastery. Democracy and edu-
cation have transformed the world
The more we know and the more we
apply our knowledge, the more se-
cure we become. Thus knowledge and
works beget faith and faith In turn
gives mastery and power. The jungle 1
recedes. and not only the physical
jungle, but the psychological jungle
which held terrors and monsters as
real as the other. Perhaps with all
our Advancement we are only on the
borderland OF discovery and invention
as yet. but the short distance we have
gone has already made new heaven
and new earth

Former Cholera Invasions.

Cholera comes in q tide across the
sea, but halts at our shores. Yet the
time was when it swept beyond the
coast line and spread terror and death
in our chief cities. In 1882, and again
In 1S40. it invaded our territory and
the cemeteries of our cities were like
newly plowed fields In its wake. There
were uncounted burrows of new
graves.
In 1882 cholera appeared in Detroit
and spread throughout the land. 1t
arrived in New York on June q and
lasted two months. In that short time
there were 3,4o0 deaths in the metrop-
oils alone. Death was equally busy in
other northern cities. In Cincinnati
and elsewhere the scourge did not dis
appear till 1888. In st. Louis and New
Orleans the pestilence was at its worst.
The belief held in some sections
that cholera does not flourish in north
ern climates is delusion. Nowhere
is it more destructive than In Russia.
The only thing that renders America
safe is vigilance. Before medical
science and sanitation had reached
their present state Of advancement we
were as subject to the scourge as
others. Our worst experience came I'M
1S4S and 1S49. It is estimated that
10 per cent of the population was
swept of in that visitation of the
plague. In one week New York re-
corded more than 700 deaths.

There are many yet living who re-

BREED THEATER.

In Frontier Days, the stirring story of the days of the early pioneers, is the feature picture at the Breed today and clearly shows the dangers that beset the paths of these daring and ambitious people. The picture opens with a scout, far in advance of his caravan, who sees the Indians take the warpath, and. riding post haste he warns his company of the impend- ing danger.
 Hastily breaking camp, they climb into wagons and start on wild, reck- less dash for liberty over the rolling prairies One member of the band, however rides on a course by him. self pursued by two bloodthirsty red skins on horses almost as good as his own. Ultimately, this man reaches a ranch, and securing the services of another man, rides to the rescue of the now besieged company, which is making a desperate stand. All ends happily when tie Indians are finally routed.
 This picture is but one of the big attractions on the Breeds bill today for another strong picture is the one entitled Captain Bland's wife and it deals with the Indians and family of people living at the post. It is espe- ciaIly brilliant in acting and scenery.
 Miss Elsie Walker sings the pretty illustrated songs, Nobody Bothers Bout Me, and Save Your Kisses Til Sunday Night, both of which are very EncceSSfIII

THE FLoNzALEY ouARTErTE
In Slater Memorial Hall, Dec. 8, Most Notable Organization in the Musical World.

With an organization like the Flon- zaley quartette about to pay this city a visit, local music lovers may con- gratulate themselves on being offered 8 treat that Is far out of the ordinary. A place among the greatest cham ber- music organizations in the world is claimed for the Flonzaleys, and the criticism of the leading musical au- thoritieS of Boston, New York and Chicago indicate that the title is de- served Not only is the reputation of the quartette established in the east, but on the Pacific coast it has made equally as great stir. In San Fran cisco the critics have been especially enthusiastic.
 If anyone wants to witness an ex- hibition of the spirit of music as man ifest where the muse really strays,'' writes Walter Anthony of the San Francisco Call, let him hear the Flonzaley quartette. For close com these four strange appearing foreign have travelled far and Iabored splendidly. They have reached their goal, too. as nearly as the merely hu- man can. Iheir playing is revela : ton. They are quartette wherein the finest secrets of the orchestra are whispered. It is almost uncanny, the degree to which they succeed. One would swear that there is only one player on the stage. The eye bellies ever much they play like one, each is an entity as different from the other as the cello is different from the viola or the viola from the violine. Yet it Is amazing to observe how one player takes the lead during a brief portion of phrase, eniy to retire in favor of another whose tone wells up and the fountain of harmony spIashes a new beauty under the quite clair Yoysant vision of theEs players, who.

THE WHITE SISTER" AT PoLrs.

From a dramatic standpoint, nothing better has been attempted by the pop ular Poli Stock company than The White Sister" which played to a com fortably filled house last night. The entire company handle their respective roles in convincing manner, bringing the fine points of the play out to the best advantage.
 Miss Victoria Montgomery as the White Sister gave a brilliant emotion al portrayal, and Tom Moore as her girlhood fiancee was equally as good. The play is strong in theme and situa- tioTss that lead up to the many intense ciinaxes, causing the audience to de- mand curtain calls in abundance. A popular innovation of Manager Saun- ders in conjunction with the produc- ton were the illustrated songs by Will Ham P. Springer.

BRADLEY THEATER, PUTNAM.

Few actors have had better warrant for taking this i'm portant step in their careers than Mr. Kellerd has. For at least twenty years his virile, yet graceful and scholarly interpretations of famous characters fn the standard and classic drama has challenged the admiration and respect of audiences and critics throughout the country.
 While featured as leading man with Helena Modjeska, MT Kellerd proved his quality as Shakespearfan actor It is only to be expected that since then his fine talent has rfpened and mellow ed-indeed that was the general yer diet regarding his performances last summer a. the Irving Place theater, New York city.
