STORY OF A STORY
ABOUT ROOSEVELT Dam
A Very Bad Thing That Never
Happened

nice illustration was afforded
last evening of how a great many
news items" get started. In this
instance it was nipped in the bud
before ii got a fair start but because
exactly the proper thing was done.
Some one told some one else, who
did not give his name. to The Re
publican, that a message had been
received saying that a hundred men
were needed at once To work on the
Roosevelt dam. The man who
heard the report naturally supposed
something awful must have happened
to the big dam, but instead of going
out TO spread the rumOr he called
up The Republican where he was told
no trouble had been heard of and
if there was anything serious The
Republican would be very apt to
have had some line on it.
The Republican just to make sure
called up Engineer Reed who said
he had heard nothing of it and inn
agined the story started from the fact
that Il force is being organized to
repair the breaks of Cave Creek over
the Arizona canal. Nevertheless, Mr..
Reed to make sure began an investi-
cation and found that the only mes
sage of the evening in which the

production. Polly of the Circus with
the sweetest and prettiest of all young
stars. Miss Ida St Leon, in Margaret
Mayo's famous American play. that
brought fame and fortune to Mr..
Thompson. and genuine delight to
hundreds of thousands OF theatergoers
who witnessed il. will be given it's first
presentation i'm this city at the Elks'
theater.
In the construction of this remark
ably successful drama, Miss Mayo went
far off the beaten path Of playwrights,
and achieved a story as refreshing as it
is original. the part of Polly showing
with admirable fidelity the life of
pretty circus rider and the doings in
the mystic land behind the scenes in
the big tent. as well as remarkable
pictures of the daily events of a small
village in the middle west.
Polly. from whom the play derives its
title, is the head of the circus. and.
having been severely injured by fall
from her horse. is carried to the par
sonage adjoining the circus lot Her
recovery to health under the supervi-
sion of the village preacher forms the
basis for one of the prettiest love
stories given to the stage TODAY. From
first curtain to last. the interest is
surprisingly well sustained. while the
six scenes required for the development
of the plot give opportunity for one of
the most lavishly elaborate scenic pro-
auctions ever seen in this city. and
which is identical even to the smallest
detail with that used at the Liberty
theater in New York city, where Polly
of the Circus" created a new record
for attendance, during a run Of one en-
tire season.
The company engaged in its presen-
tation is unusually competent. and in
every way the production is the most
expensive to maintain of any attrac-
ton that has been seen in this city
for several years.

WOMAN AIDS CHILDREN.

Kind lady" is the name the little
invalids in the Children's hospital. Los

woman who daily visits them but who
will not reveal her name. She takes
toys and food to the children and once
or twice each week she tells them a
fairy story. one little boy who is not
to live long was told recent
~ he might have anything he wanted
to eat and he expressed desire for
hot tamales." so the kind lady" has
ordered them sent to him each day.

Finances and Markets

New York. Jan 13.-Early market
activity sent prices up materially
and there was a nearer approach to
genuine support than has been seen
i'm any recent day. In the absence of
favorable developments there was a
disposition to attribute the sustained
strength to a broadening demand. No
evidence of the outside support de-
veloped, however and the dullness
that followed the first hours trad
/ ing indicated that the market was
still a narrow one. 1t closed firm.
Reading was feature and more than
recovered from its mi-annual divi-
dend of ) per cent.
United States Steel was traded
| in from the outset at steadily adj
vancing prices. and Canadian Pacific
registered further substantial gain,
with betterment in such allied prop
critics as Minneapolis, st. Paul &
Ste. Marie, and Wisconsin Centrai.
Another feature of the day was
the strength of the Gould stocks, led
by Missouri Pacific Undoubtedly
the tone of this group is a genesis of
the belief that the Gould family will
soon retire from active management
and the succession will rest with
powerful interests known to have ac-
quired substantial holdings in the
Gould lines.

exports proved the value OF last
years shipments in the history of
the country, exceeding by more than
$50. coo. 900 all previous records. Trad
