SPLENDID ATTRACTION COMING.

SPLENDID ATTRACTION COMING
 Harry Mack, general representa- tive of the United Play Company, is in the city arranging with manager Prettyman for the appearance here on Thursday, January 9th of Hugo B. Koch in Clyde Fitch's remarkable play The City" MT. Mack announces that number of this firms attrac- tions are coming west and that there is an excellent possibility of this city being included in the routes. The name of the United Play Company stands for some of the biggest drama tic successes of the period, notably Sarah Padden in ''Kindling," The Lion and the Mosue", The Third De- gree, "Graustark" and d"TruxtonKing" This is the most important list of at fractions controlled by any firm out side of New York City and the high standard of casts and productions has given the United Play Company a high standing with theatre managers and patrons.
 While there has been some com plaint of poor business in the larger centers of population MT. Mack says that in the west all attractions of mer- it are doing well. MT. Koch is hay ing the most successful tour of his career. Many of his audiences have been of the capacity order and more than one theatre has dusted off the standing room only sign for his ap- pearance. In fact MT. Mack states that since leaving the Mississippi River The City, has not had single nights business which could be des- cribed as small. Reports from the other attractions of this firm are of a like character. Particularly is this true of "Graustark," a dramatization of the popular book of the same title, which it is hoped may be presented here before the close of the season.

Problem of Heredity

From the Chicago Evening Post
David Starr Jordan, president of Lee
land Stanford University, in an address
on "Eugenics'' before the science de-
partment of the National Educational
Association at the Congress hotel de-
clared that on an average q person in
herits one-fourth of his characteristics
from the father, one-fourth from the
mother, one-sixteenth from each OF the
grand parents and the rest from still
more remote ancestors.
IF we know ourselves we know our
parents" Professor Jordan quoted. Tho
speaker declared that the science of art
of being well born consisted in the sun,
of knowledge of conditions of beginning
life with sound heredtM
"A mans elements In life are derived
from heredity, nothing new can be re-
ceived," he continued. From this we
may see that the art of character build
ing is the union and the coordination OF
hereditary elements. Let men know by
your deeds what your ancestors were.
THE breeding of a superman is quite
possible along the line of selection but
it is not possibility through state se-
lection.
State selection or scientific breeding
would lose the two choicest results of
natural selection, love and initiative. The
best choose their own mates for their
own reasons.
THE most that can be done is to Diff
fuse a knowledge of truth and to elm
mate through wise charity those delin-
quent, defective md incapable through
bad heredity. There is always room for
the man OF force. ane he makes room

STEADY TRADE ON
MORRIS AVENUE
Reaction Taking Place in the
Produce Markets-De-
mand for Flyers

Morris avenue markets opened up the
week with a steady trade and generally
firm prices although slight changes In
all the markets were recorded. The out
look for this week seems to forecast a
more active trade all around with quota
lions generally higher than last week.
The reaction predicted for the produce
market was apparent yesterday; for most
dealers are nearly out of peaches and
watermelons and other fruits. The price
of peaches advanced and very few can
be had at even the present high price.
The crop of watermelons from South Ala
hama is nearly all in and the price on
this fruit Is due for a raise In a day or
two. Some more cabbages came in yes
terday but did not affect the quotations.
Fryers huctuated yesterday up and
down but at the close of the market the
price of IS cents was quoted for large
medium and small flyers which shows
no change from last week. The supply
OF flyers is good and the demand was
very brisk yesterday. Eggs went UP a
cent and probably will go higher. AL
though the supply is plentiful at present
1t Is not expected to last and the demand
is on the increase. Creamery products
held steady with a good trade.
Fish merchants have no changes for the
beginning of the week and reported a
steady trade with q good supply. The
dry salt meat market shows an advance
on all meats but the sluggish trade Of
last week still prevails. Coffee and sugar
started the week with brisk trade and
firm prices. The grain merchants re-
eel, ed heavy shipments of hay and -four
yesterday but prices held firm and no
changes are expected until the last of
the week when some reductions. ON flour
will no doubt be made. Trading with the
grain men was very good for Monday
and will likely continue throughout the
week.
