comedy, touching on military life,
and full oil thrilling situations.
There Is not a dull moment through
out the four acts and, on he whole,
the play is considered the best given
since the stock company was inau-

given an excellent opportunity to
| display her ability as an emotional
actress and won round after round
OF applause at both performances

part of Ross" a southern girl, who,
though prosecuted, is nevertheless

part she is portraylngsand can make
the audience laugh or cry at will.

Mr.. Ross work in each OF the three

they care for their workmen. Already
several millions of dollars have been
spent on building dwellings there for
them. similar to their domiciles in this
country. Some time & several news
paper men from New York City con
ceived the idea that men in the employ
of the government at Panama were
poorly fed, and wrote several articles
to this effect. This, of course, caused
much dissention, causing President
Taft to select a committee headed by
Miss Beck, of New York, and send
them to the scene of the work. After
q months stay the committee reported
to the president that the food wat of
the best and that the men were amply
Supplied.
Tho question relative to the hire of
Chinese laborers by this government
e e4gs ssHSaaTeAA~-eaA&hent the speaker
said vet In all OF his experiences in
the canal zone, he declared he never
witnessed a foreman hiring one of the
race to labor. The French, he
said. had them, but the United States
never did and never will. Mr.. Wynd-
ham ridiculed the idea OF SO many re-
ported dying ON the 1sthinus from yell
low fever. Sanitary conditions Mt Pan
anna, he added, could not be improved
upon and this ramor is nothing but a
~falsehood.
Mr.. wyrahsm talks from experience
having been an engineer on the work
for many years first under the French
government and then FOR the Ameri-
cans. His lecture was given in a very
foreeful manner and was very inter
esting as we'll as instructive. Many

CLASSY BILL
AT PROCTOR'S
Hicksy's Circus Is Funny
Four Good Acts.

One of the best bills witnessed at
P%roctor's theatre in some time is be-
ing presented for the first part OF
this week. The program is a novel
one and is headed by a of the fun-
niest acts on the stage, "Hickey's
Circus" The act can be appropri-
performed equal, If not excel, those
OF the same class seen In the saw
dust arena. Trying W ride the 'im-
possible pony and standing on the
revolving table furnish a climax that
throws the audience into convul-
sions. Some clever animal tricks
are introduced and excite much apz
piause.
Bruce and Shannon score heavily
in q clever little comedy sketch en-
titled cupid, NJ. d. The story
shows how true love lever runs
smooth but Cupid with the aid OF his
magic balm doetors,the iii and In the
end the couple hike TO Denver for
welded bliss. The sketch is well
acted and gets its share OF the clap
ping.
Another act of merit Is the Trans
neld Sisters in a musical act. These
young ladies are masters of several
instruments and are also excellent
singers, That tNey made a distinct
hit last night was proven by the en-
cores they were compelled to res
pond TO.
Last. but not least. is Omar. a
dervish dancer. You almost get
dizxy watching this act. SO many
times does the artist whlrl around
AFTER what seems an innumerable
number Of circles the dancer without
an instant's hesitation or staggering,
picks up a pin.
In addition TO the foregoing excel
cent bill, latest motion pictures are
shown. The show on account OF the

dren this week. 4

ASKS FOR A WAR
DR.. J. e. Buckley Would Have
Mexico Invaded by Army of
United States.
HE SUES PRESIDENT TAFT
Chicago Physician Alleges That Ger
many and japan Are in Scheme
TO Land Troops.

President Taft has been sued In
court of law to compel him to perform
administrative or, as lawyers would
say. ministerial" acts. DR.. James Ed
ward Buckley, a practicing physician
of Chicago, who has twice instituted
proceedings against Secretary Of State
Philander c. Knox, brought an action
against President Taft In the Wash
ington District supreme court and ask
ed that mandamus be issued to COM
pei the chief executive to show cause
why he should not be compelled to di-
rect attention of congress to the con-
ditions in Mexico and recommended
that an army for the conquest Of that
republic be promptly dispatched thith-
er by way of the gulf and the Pacific.
This should be done, the complain
ant states, to prevent a "ruinous war.
which would entail the loss of the
Philippines, the Hawaiian Islands and
the canal" through the cooperation
of the japanese now in Mexico with
German troops.
DR.. Buckley contemplates an 1nva-
sion of Mexico by the Germans to
enforce the death penalty on Mexi-
cans for the murder of German sub
jects and an assault on a German wo-
man." The president must appear in
court in person or by attorney If the
court should entertain the complaint
FILES THE PAPERS PERSONALLY.
The suit was fled by the physician
personally. On Aug. 9 and again on
Oct 8, both of last year, Dr. Buckley
sued in the same court for a manda-
mus against Secretary of State Knox
to compel him to perform certain acts.
Both suits were dismissed.
The president is accused Of 'indiner-
ence toward the life and liberty OF
Americans and others residing in Mex
leo" 1t is declared that a week before
the last adjournment of congress the
chief executive possessed information
which would have justified an army
and navy demonstration down there.
He demands to know why congress
was not informed about it The send
ing of the soldiery TO Texas is charac-
terized as political move.
The Diaz administration is called
"Wall street exporting agency" with
Henry Taft. brother of the president.
as its chief attorney" The president
is charged with having embarrassed
and handicapped the insurgent party
in Mexico by modifying the army on
the frontier. The petition further
states that the Mexican situation has
been "dovetailed with American money
interests" Henry Taft is said to see
things from a Wall street point OF
view. and the physician thinks he
communicates his viewpoint to the
president" This. he declares, can be
confirmed by Attorney General Wick
ersham. who is mentioned in the petit
ton as Henry Taft's former law part
ncr
Details of alleged hOldups. robberies
and other unlawful acts are set out in
the petition. The cost of filing the pc
tition was $40, which Or. Buckley paid.

Chinese Trader Tells Of Discovery
Made on Exploration Trip.
Placer ground rich in gold has been
discovered in the BlackfOot district in
northern Idaho, ninety-three miles
southeast OF Spokane. by All Yen. a
Chinese trader, according to his state
ments to officials of the United States
customs house in Spokane on return
ing from an exploration trip along the
Westinghouse ho border.
The deposits. which are four miles
from a flowing stream and require
not less than fifteen miles of fumes
to convey water 10 the gravel, were
found more than thirty years ago by
two Chinese prospectOrs. who were
killed and robbed by a white man.
Yen says that q woman who sewed
the poke to hold the miners gold told
the rustler of the find of the Chinese
and urged him to locate claims. In
stead he murdered the miners and car
ried or their nuggets.

MINE DIGGER
BEING RESCUED
is Under the Earth But is Alive and
Frantic Efforts Are Made to
Save Him.

JOPLIN, Mo-, July 31-With hun
dreds of boys and men trying to aid,
and with food and drink being sent
down by pipe to him, Joseph Clary, a
mine digger, is known to be alive
after a heavy fall of earth in the
White Oak mine, nine miles east.
If more cave-ins do not follow, his
chances of rescue are good. A pros
pect drill is working frantically, sink
ing 6 inch hole, which will let vent
ilation into the alright drift
Clary and his mining chum were
in the ground when dirt began crumb-
ling One of the men was hoisted to
the top but no sooner had he STEP
ped on solid ground than the shaft
caved in with a roar.
Clarv is believed to have sought
safety in the far corner of the drift
which is 40 feet long. Last evening
the drill hole was 80 feet in depth
and it was thought it would penetrate
the drift by midnight.
Fortunately the ground through
which the hole is being sunk is very
soft and the work is being pushed
rapidly
