UNCLE TOM DECIDES
 ID PROLONG VISIT

Those who have seen the ordinary transforming Uncle Toms Cabin troupe with a couple Of mangy CUTS attached as fierce bloodhounds, should not confuse what they have seen with the pictures that are being shown at the Star Theatre and drew capacity houses last night As well compare a minstrel show with a French opera. These pictures that are now being displayed at the Star are taken Of a production which cost Sj0.- 900 and are in reality a rarety and novelty in moving pictures. Noth- ing finer has ever been shown in New York in the way of a reproduction Of the dramatiZed novel of Harriet Beecher Stowe than that which is offered here.
 The story of Uncle Tom, ToPsy and Little Eva is too familiarto need cont- ment lt is the acting that tells, the realism that counts in a production of the long famous play. A poor actor or actress spells the play which is re- plete with opportunities for high class thespian art. That is what was em- ployed in the production of which the films that made such a hit at the Star were taken. That is why the farewell of

OUTLAWS PLAN

NIELSEN HEADS MOVE
tBv Irving Vaughn)

Plans are now on foot for the form alton of C. second outlaw" league which will embrace only cities Of the central west. Billy Niesen owner Of Gunther's park. yesterday unfold cd an elaborate scheme to launch Q . third major organization this spring, and steps have already been taken looking toward meeting of the in ! terssted parties. As proposed. the CIT cult will be made up of eight Of the following cities: Chicago, Milwaukee, St Louis, Kansas City, Louisville, Cincinnati, Indianapolis. Detroit, Pitts burgh and Clevelanu.
 The idea is to get circuit that will be as comp1ct as possible, thus cut ting to a minimum all travelling ex- pense. This is the fault with the otEer outlaw" organization now in making, as the teams will be forced
 to jump from New York to Kansas City if the league materiaiizes. To all appe arancSs this move which was uncorked in the east recently, has
 died Q natural death At least the promoters are not now assured of

 He plans 10 start the third league
 on a small scale, and from what he
 said last night he seems 10 be going
 at the job from the right angle. No expenses will be incurred this coming
 season through the erection of parks
 as semi-pro grounds in the different
 cities -ill be utilized and the owners
 of these vii be given the franchises.

REPUBLIC AS SEEN BY A CHINESE.

Chinese student at Columbia, ii. a letter protesting against the state ment that republic in China is now impossible because her people are not ready for thai form of govern ment, makes two answers, each O. which, because Of their inconsistency. would have been stronger had it stood alone.
 He declares, first, that the Chinese really are reaoy for republic. and that the readiness is proved by the shortness of time in which many mil lions have turned from the emperor and declared their adhesion to the leadership and ideas of Dr. Sun. That unquestionabIy does demonstrate something, and something big. but hardly the truth ot the correspond ent's contention. Apparently he real izes this fact, for he next declares that if preparedness for self-rule and representative government on the bart of, the masses were necessary for the establishment of republic on a permanent basis, there would bG none. Nowhere, he says, have the masses attained this lofty height, and everywhere, in republics no less than in monarchies, are they led and con- trolled by the abler few
 This assertion is evidently a sly dig at ourselves, and Of it's truth cur rent history supplies not few of what are at least apparent illustra- tions. The contradictions of it, how ever, are, on the whole. convincing. Our selfgovernment, as it does not take an Oriental critic to see, is as vet far from perfect, but we have been getting along pretty well from the very start and the masses" as the years go on, are taking more anu more of power from the few. If the Chinese Republic car do that it will be all right-in tme-like ourselves.

 The Aldrich plan centraliZes the banking system of the country at Was shington by the creation of a re- serve association of America, embrac- ing in it's membership as stockholders all the national banks and dividing the country regardless of state lines. in sixteen subdivisions or zones, in the most prominent commercial city in each of which is located a branch Of the reserve association.
 There are two objections to this one. that it practically creates central hank, concerning which there

The Cincinnati Enquirer is Iack.n in enthusiasm regarding the cand., dacy of Governor Harmon for the nomination for the presidency, an al. titude which reflects the owners want of personal affection for the governor.

In the former year the democrats carried fourteen of those counties by an aggregate majority of 14.OOO In 1904 the dem ocrats carried only eight of the coun- ties losing them in the aggregate by 22 1000.
