The SPFNDTHRIFT" SHOWS
EVILS OF FXTRAVlGANCE

Porter Emerson Brownies latest
play and by far the greatest dramatic
success in New York last season, '"Thc
Spendthrift," which Frederic Thomp-
son will present here at the Kerredge
theater on April 5, with an excep-
tionally strong east, is n striking OBJ
ject lesson in the folly and extrava-
gance of women. The pathetic part of
The Spendthrift" is the woman's un-
conscious folly and her inability from
long habits of self-indulgence to real
ize that anything else is important.
Her husband tells her that he is on
the brink of failure. begs her to help
him, suggests that they close the house
to economize, and she in turn, declar-
ing that she will do everything posi-
BILE suggests trip To Europe when
the house is closed. and the lmmedi-
ate necessity of another automobile.

WHERE FAULT WILL LIE.

Governor Dix, Of New York, ex-
pressed a very poor opinion of nom
voters on the occasion of dinner
given by the Friendly Sons of St.
Patrick.
Let me say TO you with all blunt
ness and plainness OF speech" said
the governor. that if self government
is ever adjudged failure in our state
and nation the responsibility will lie
with our so-called best citizens who
hold aloof from public affairs and
think themselves too good to interest
themselves in matters Of politics and
government.
The vote Of four parties in New
York, in 1908. was 1,59S.656. That in
1910, when Dix was elected was 1906
99s. Voters to the number of 191 SIS
RETAINED from going to the jolls last
fall. The republican plurality in 1908
was 2O26O2 The democratic plurality
Of 1910 was s7.4O1. Mr. Dix owes his
election not to a comparatively trivial
gain Of 22,232 democratic votes. but
10 nearly 100000 electors who were too
busy, too lazy, too puzzled, or too ir-
ritated to express their preference off,

LIFE SAVERS ASSEMBLING
FOR The SEASONS OPENING

Members of the Life Saving corps
of the u. S. ship canal at Superior
Beach are gathering here to be in
readiness for the opening of the sea-
son. which is expected to take place
about April Is. Ed. Mersy, who has
been spending the winter i'm lower
Michigan, arrived i'm Hancock yester-
day. while most of the others have re-
manned here during the winter. Colin
Westrope has spent the winter months
since the close of the station in De-
cember at Ripley; Paul Leidke and
Freddy Solomon are taking CONNER
cial course at the Finnish college bus
mess department.; Charles Tucker and
family have wintered at the canal:
captain Mccormack has divided his
time between the canal and Hough-
ton; Majaama, a new recruit added
tween the canal and Calumet, and will
bring his bride, whom he married re-
Gently, to live at the canal. John Nc
Donald, the oldest man in service at
the station. will also be back again
making the personnel OF the corps the
same as last season.
Captain Mccormack begins his four
teenth year in charge of the Portage
Lake station and his thirty-first i'm the
life saving service. Mcdonald has COM
peted twenty-five years of service at
the station, and Tucker has been there
twelve years
The time of opening of navigation is
still uncertain, but it will doubtless
be later than last season, when the
first boats passed through the lake on
April 10. The ice in Portage Lake last
year went out entirely on March %,
whereas at present the surface of the
lake is still covered with thick ice eX-
cept for one large open section extend
ing eastward a considerable distance
from the CroZe dock. The first an
inouncement of probable sailings Of
steamers which visit Portage Lake has
been made by the Port Huron and Du-
luth line. which has given notice of the
opening of the season by the steamers
Portland and Lakeland on April 10.

is forced from the heart breaking wife

twenty thousand dollars from another
man-an enormously rich man known
To the husband as n man without moral
character.
