OUR INSANITY FACTORIES.

1t is fitting that the people of Perth Amboy
should give more than ordinary attention to
~6xe'1FEsasfaffs at this time. We are soon to
elect new members to the excise board who
will have the handling of the liquor problem
in this city for the next three years, 1t is
highly necessary that the people should de-
eide right in order that the city may be re-
lieved of the disgrace that now hangs upon it.
Altogether separate from the present po-
litical campaign, yet having a direct bearing
thereto is the comment Of Alderman Seaman
on the matter of sending insane drmkards to
MED that Perth Amboy has an unenviable rec
ord at this state institutions. We have surely
done our part toward bringing about the in
crease in insanity which is reported in the
statistics of New Jersey.
There is no doubt that a man suffering with
delirium tremens is insane for the time being.
1t is one of the disgraces of the city that the
police are forced to deal with such a being
every few days. In fact, seldom a week goes
by but what such a man is taken to the police
headquarters and examined by physicians. On
some occasions we have had delirium tremens
eases every day for several days c%ontinu-
ously.
Alderman Seaman would go at the root Of
the matter and have an excise board elected
which would revoke the license of every sa-
loonkeeper who sells Intoxicating liquors to a
man already drunk. This would, without a
doubt, lessen the evil. If an intoxicated man
is allowed to become sober before he can Sc
cure any more drink he will either refrain
from drinking for a time, or will at least be
able to keep himself out of the madhouse.
The saloonkeeper who has no better morals
than to drive men into insanity in the way it
is being done in this city should be locked up
himself as a menace to the community. 1t is
to get at just such men as these that the
EVENING NEWS is urging the people of the
city to pay particular attention to the kind of
men they elect to the excise board this year.
The election is now just two weeks off. To-
day is the last registery day. You owe it as a
duty to your city to see that you are properly
registered, and then go to the polls on Novem-
Der 5 and vote for Messrs. Boehm, Germs,
Seaman, Waring and Hanson. These five men
are grouped on the ballot as Republicans, al
though at least four of them are thoroughly
non-partisan and can be depended upon to
give the city the service that it is looking for.
Excise affairs are in a most deplorable state
Ind one of the worst features is this making

business last night was the receiving

the passage of an ordinance providing

at the Colonial Theatre, Chicago, be-
sides it's four tours throughout Amer

'ations would be somewhat superfiuous.
The Soul Kiss has never been
given wonderious credit for a plot 1t
is the simplisity of the story that real
ly adds additional charms. The fact
that a young artest who has caused a
sensation in Paris, is beseiged with all
the available marriagable daughters,
but he, in his artistic temperament, is
vent on marrying the girl that can
satisfy him with a kiss from the soul.
The devil, who of course is in the guise
of a gentleman lurking in Paris. be-
comes interested in the artest. and be-
comes his chaperon, while searching
for that same kiss that rises to the
lips from the heart, The Soul Kiss"
Aside from this intense question all
else becomes light, jollity, music and
dancing
There are six complete scenes in
the production, each having their large
ensembles, their duets, their classic
songs and interspepsed fun in the com
edians. who in turn have their paro-
dies and comicalities. Among the
principals of the original cast to be
seen here are several who were pres
entedin the original production. More
particularly, Sam M. Lewis, who will
be remembered by all those having
seen the city production as Soloman
Slavinski. The costuming of the play
is equal to the original production.

OKLAHOMA QUAIL
WANTED IN EAST
cruce Receives Request For 300 Pair
From President-Elect.

! Oklahoma City, Nov Ex-Governor
Lee Cruce received telegram Tues
day from Joseph p. Tumulty, private
Isecretary to Governor Woodrow VIII.
son of New Jersey, asking for 300 pairs
of quail for the use of the state OF
New Jersey. This state has a large
game farm for the propagation of fowl
which are becoming scarce there.
The telegram is as follows: Gov
ernor Woodrow Wilson, who author
ICES our state fish and game commits.
sion to obtain quail for propagation
purposes, would greatly appreciate
your giving an agent permit to OBJ
tain there for our new state game
farm, where we have every facility for
success in raising the birds. We will
need at least 800 pairs and viii gladly
reciprocate in any way possible. May
we have your early replyY"
Governor Cruce has not yet given
his opinion in the matter. If he should
decide to grant the request, the state
game warden will be instructed to Sc
cure the fowl and provide for their
transportation There has been in the
past some objection on the part of
land owners to snaring birds for trans
portation outside the state, probably
on account of misunderstanding re-
garding the purposes. This is not an
ticipated where the purpose is for pro-
pagation.

At the Idle Hour.

The writer had one of those Idle
Hours last evening and decided to
spend it at the idle Hour Theatre, and
to say the least 1t was an hour well
spent. This hustling manager, ]. H.
Brooks has built up one ofCthe best
little moving picture shows in town
against great odds. His pictures are
the very best that can be had, and he
uses every effort to give his patrons
the best of everything. His estimable
wife has charge of the music depart
ment and this is one of the strong fea-
lures of the show. Mrs Brooks plays
with a grace that makes the music
lovely; with her every thing is har-
mony. She does not play the usual
rag time and fake music usually play
ed in picture shows, but has before
her the very latest and best music OBJ
tainable from the very best writer's.
Fox Chouteau, Vinita's best violin
player has been employed to assist
her and the music alone is worth the
price of admission to this show
