HOWE PLAYDRAWS
Second Night Audience Has
More Enthusiasm Than First.

The second presentation of The Story
of a Country Town, the E. w. Howe
drama produced at the Majestic thea
ter by the North Brothers Stock COM
pany, proved more successful than the
initial performance. Though the Tues
day night audience was one friendly to
the author it was one that did not have
the professional interest in him that
did the audience of Monday night. Not
withstanding this fact, however, the
applause not only was more genuine
but it was given even more heartily
Mr.. Howe, who was called for and
who made short speech following the
first act, later declared that the recep-
ton was 500 per cent better than on
the night of the initial presentation.
c. C. North, manager of the company
and the big Adam" of the cast, also
stated that he believed the play was
being given a fairer test. He was sat-
isfed that the people were warm
ing" to the bill and that after Mr.
Howe has made such changes as may
appear necessary, the play will prove Il
success elsewhere as well as in Topeka
and Kansas.

TO LEAD THE WORLD.
Chicago Plans the Most Elaborate
Subway System.

Chicago, Feb. 1-Chicago is to have the
most elaborate subway system of any city
in the world, if plans drawn by the city's
traction expert are adopted.
Complete details of the plans which will
revolutiontze the transportation business
of the city have been worked out by Bion
J. Arnold and will be submitted to the
city council next Monday.
Warned by the experience of New York
which found it's subway facilities over,
taxed few months after it was opened
for traffic. Mr.. Arnold has provided for
tunnels that will extend clear from build
ing line to building line instead of from
curb to curb.
By utilizing the space under the side
walks. not only is provision made for the
housing of public utilities, but four, and
in some streets six, tracks are to be laid.
The bottom of the subway will be forty
feet below the street level at its greatest
depth. It will be constructed on two
levels SO that there will be no grade cross
ings below the ground.
On April 1 the special traction fund
available for the subway scheme will be
100000
The first section of the system which
will be recommended will run from the
vicinity Of Chicago avenue and Wells
street to Twenty-second and State streets,
distance of about ~ miles.

WHY WAS THIS DONE?
w. H. Caldwell Calls Attention to Mis-
leading Editors Resolution.

To the Editor of the State Journal:
In your report of the resolutions adopted
by the late State Editorial association
find the following:
1.-THE recommendation of the installa-
ton of a specific cost system at the state
printing plant so that the public may
know just what the plant is costing and
how much each individual job costs
The scissors artist who wrote that reSo-
luton and the aggregation of scissors ar
demonstration of the propensity to leap
before they look. If either of them had
ever taken the time to look over the
State Journal state official paper, he or
she, would find published every quarter
the state printers quarterly report, giving
the very information questioned in that
resolution save only the cost of each IN
dividual job" That report specifically
each quarter previous to the publication
of the report And had any member of
the Editorial association, or any person,
taken the time to come to the plant the
undersigned, who is its accountant, would
have taken and will take great pleasure
in exhibiting his system that shows the
exact approximate cost of each individual
job. No officer, institution in the state
for whom this plant does work of either
printing or binding, or both, will have to
wait to exceed fifteen minutes to get an
answer as to the cost of leach individual
job done for him or them from the date
as state printer. and mine his account
ant, July 1, 1906 to this very minute.
The "eXact cost is a thing that no man
living has ever been able to accomplish,
and If this resolution expert can do so he,
or she, can win goodly sized purse from
the printing cost congresses that as
semble annually to compare notes and
ideas and tables of cost. of which every

HorsehaIr Turban.

Among the comfortable hats that
have been invented for summer wear,
especially when travelling or motor
ing, is a turban Of colored hoIsehair.
The French call this material by the
name of erin, and it Is woven out Of
such silken threads that 1t has prac-
tically no weight.
The form of these turbans is East
Indian. They are wrapped or swathed
around small frame of milliner's
wire and lined with white China silk.
They are excellent for steamer wear,
because they have no brim, and one
can lean back against the chair with
entire comfort. OF course, for the
woman who must have her eyes al
ways shaded from the light these tur-
bans are impossible, but for the ordi-
nary mortal they are both stylish and
comfortable.
