DELIGHTFUL BILL
 AT THE ORPHEUN

Beginning tonight the Orpheum will inaugurate new system of pro gram change days. In the future the picture program will be changed three times a week-Tuesdays, Fri days and Sundays, and the vaudeville will be changed on Wednesdays and Sundays, by which something new will be seen almost each day of the week. At last nights performance Miss Claire Collins and May and Collins came to the front with large battal ion of Joys and drove the "Glooms" away, if there is such a thing as Gloom in this popular vaudeville house.
 Miss Collins. who appears in the character of The Man Who Owns Broadway" Is recognized as one of the leading male 'impersonators, and her reception last night must have been very gratifying to both the man agement and herself Her opening song, The Man Who Owns Broad way" and the two following, He's a College Boy and Consequences, al . EdNiiAg anu WEI ANhANAINs ! AAC AelA ter is a smoke" song and eastern critics speak of it as the hit of Broadway this season.
 None the less entertaining are May and Collins, the clever song and dance chaps, who are billed as the Boy and the Soubrette."
 This sounds a little out of place. but Mir. May in a dainty soubrette costume, all frilIs and ruffles, is far from out of place in the role.
 He impersonates so well that when he takes of his wig at the conclusion of their act the audience is left spell bound for a few moments, finally to awake to the fact that May and Col lins deserve applause. and then they get it and get it plentifully.
 The same acts will be repeated to- night with an entire change of mo- ton pictures.
 The filmed comedy, Reckless Reddy Reforms" will be shown, and is a scream from title to finish.
 The other reels are The Two Flu gitives," a thrilling western drama; The Ijar," romance of olden times, and a great educational pie ture explaining the use of The Mag net" from which it takes it's name

Railway Situation in China.

Participation by American capitalists
in the new Chinese loans is causing
closer study to be made into the pros
poets for railway building in that en-
pre-. Consul General George L. An
derson of Hongkong has just contrib
uted comprehensive report on this
subject, which has been published by
the bureau of manufactures of the de-
partment of commerce and labor as
special consular report No. 4s, with the
title, "Railway Situation in China. I"
Copies can be secured from the
bureau.
There has been no single greater OBJ
stacle to the development OF central
China than the lack of facilities for
communication. The recent imperial
decree, issued with a view to national
izing the trunk lines of the empire and
the $30,000,000 Hukuang railway, by
which it is expected to rush to compile
ton most of the important railway
lines of central China, augur vsn for
the extension of foreign trade int, the
remote interior. Americans are not only
taking part of the Hukuang loan, but
also of the $5O,OO0,O0O government loan
just agreed on at Picking, and will
probably participate in a further loan
of $20,000000 to be made in case GER
tain railroad plans are carried out. The
consul general reports in regard to all
these lines proposed, from Manchuria
to Thibet.

roared with laughter at the joke on
himself, and could not stop. All night

Substitutes for Rubber.

Rubber consumption has kept so close
on the heels of rubber production and
price of the gum has risen so rapidly
IN the last few. years that nothing
could be more welcome to the manu-
facturers of rubber goods and the motor
car people than the discovery of syn
thetic rubber or some practicable sub
stitute for rubber.
From time to time announcement is
made that such substitute has been
found, but the manufacturers and others
interested are always skeptical.
Some time ago considerable interest
was aroused by che report that the
British scientist, Weichmann, had made
rubber from the seed of a South
American palm known as taqua nuts.
He extracted the vegetable albumen,
compounded it with an animal albumen
and a suitable solvent, producing, it
was claimed, hard rubber which has
all the tensile strength and other good
qualities of rubber except that it will
not stand the action of water and
chemical agents.
This difficulty, in turn, has, it is as
serted, been overcome by compounding
it again with a condensed product of
phenol and formaldehyde. This mate
rial again may be compounded with as
many substances as native rubber.
Another substitute is proposed in
Germany. Five hundred parts of cry
threne are dissolved in benzine and the
solution is heated for 10 hours at a
temperature of $50 degrees centigrade.
A steam distillation then removes the
solvent and the elastic substance that
remains closely resembles rubber.

WOMEN'S MILLIONS
RICHEST OF RICH WIDOWS OF
The LAND ORGANIZE To
Use MONEY WISELY.
Mrs. Hartman, Richest of All, Has
S250,000,000 at Her Disposal-Mrs.
Gates, Sage, Hearst, Mackey and
Marshall Field Are Also Burdened
With Too Much Money.

New York.--A woman's movement
more important than the movement for
the suffrage seems to have been born
in New York city. A woman of promi-
nence in the purely sociological or in
vestigatory phases of philanthropic
work is its originator, and it in effect
may be not only national, but world
wide.
The movement has grown out of an
existing condition probably unprece
sented in the history of the world. A
few women at the present time control
a great part of the nation g wealth
much more than a billion dollars. T..
II. Hartman IS widow has the vast sum
of $3.50, 100000 at her disposal She is
by far the richest of the group in all
probability, but there are others whose
holdings give them controlling voices
in many of the nation s greatest enter
prises.
Mrs. John w. Gates, of whose vast
fortune all the world has been gossip
ing of late, is not one of the least i'm
portant of them. Mrs. Russell Sage is
a great power in finance if she wishes
to exercise the force of the millions
left by Mr.. Sage. There are, besides
these, many others, including Mrs. o.
II. P. Belmont, Mrs. C. P. Huntington,
Mrs. Robert Goelet, Mrs. Ogden Goelet,
Mrs. George M. Pullman of Chicago,
and her fellow townswoman, Mrs. Mar
shall Field and Mrs. Phoebe Hearst and
Mrs. John w. Mackey of the Pacific
coast.
In one small Michigan city, for ex-
ample, there are widows of the last de-
cade g lumber kings who own fortunes
aggregating over $4,000, 900.
Letter Mailed to Fifty. q"
The movement has been generally
started by mailing to so women a letter
calling their attention to the potential
power of the aggregated fortunes and
suggesting the formation instantly of
an organization designed to put it tc
the best use possible. Already several
New York women have Endorsed the
idea with enthusiasm and within a week
or two replies will have come in from
such others as are at present in the
country.
