The plot Of the soul Kiss" which
comes to the Colonial soon. concerns
a French sculptor who has burning
desire to locate rather odd kiss. and
one that comes from the soul. In his
search for the maid who possesses
this rare kiss, he is assisted by ]. Luci-
fer Mephisto. thoroughly up-to-date
devil, who has s1,00O,O0O to bet on the
outcome. This Satan, as portrayed by
Thomas s. Van, is gripful Mephisto,
not at all Sardonic, but an entirely
new type of devil, not at all suggestive
of the many varieties already dished
up to the theatrical palate during the
last decade.
In order to aid his friend in the
search for "The Sould Kiss" he sum.

known and notable ladies'; Carme,

same moment discovers The Soul

heart to the lips.
Incident to the sculptor's meeting

given the most sumptuous new scenic
and costume investiture. and from this
dazzling background, Orpha Halves
stands out like some rare and brilliant
jewel, who dances into the hearts of

WATER-LoooED ON BONDS.

James j. Hill, the great railroad
builder and prominent factor in the
financial world, says the country is
"water-logged with bonds"
There is much truth in the observa-
tion of Mr.. Hill, and subject matter
for serious thinking on the part of our
and law-givers.
When we think of the amount Of
bonds that have already been issued
and that are being issued daily, bill
ions and billions Of them, by Nation,
States, counties, municipalities, dis
tricts, and every form of industrial en-
terprise, 1t is bewildering.
Bond money is easy money. 1t
means that we are living in the future;
in other words, we have promised to
pay tomorrow for what we are living
on today.
These bonds will mature some day
and be presented for payment.
There may be some embarrassment.
II the present policy of indiscriminate
bond issues should continue for the
next twenty years at the rate they are
now being issued, the amount of out.
standing bonded Indebtedness, we
veritably believe, will be greater than
the combined wealth of the country.
When that day comes what rate OF
tax levying will be necessary to pay
the interest on them and create a
sinking fund for their final redemp
ton?
1t could not be done; it will mean
confiscation.

YOUNG GATES.

Charles G. Gates was the only son
OF John w. Gates, who amassed q
great fortune and handed 1t on to his
heir when death called him. This for
tune amounted to s40,000,000. John
w. Gates made his start in rexas more
than thirty years ago. He introduced
barbed wire to the ranchmen and laid
the foundation for his great pile of
dollars. Gates, the father, was long
headed and spectacular plunger as
well as far-seeing business man. He
was ready to take gamblers chance.
He played for high stakes. He owned
railroads as well as race horses, and
was a plunger in Wall street as wen
as at the race track. Charles c. Gates
inherited his fathers money. but he
did not inherit the business acumen
or the sturdy business habits of the
barbwire king. He burned the candle
of life at both ends. He scattered
money to the winds. He was as
prodigal as an East India prince and
he paid the penalty in the Wyoming
mountains when death called him
while yet in the prime of manhood.
John w. Gates had vast interests in
Texas. He was at the head of the
Texas Company He was the maker
of Port Arthur and he had gigantic
plans under way in the improvement
and upbuilding of his interests when
he passed away. Now his only son
and the inheritor of his vast wealth

The Bryan High School building is
out Of date, back number, and utterly
inadequate to meet the present de-.

about it. in lighting, heating. ventila-

building, modernly equipped, the eff
cheney of the school could be largely
increased. Bryan is financially able
to have such building and should
have it without delay.

The tendency of the educated
world is toward formality of eX-
preston. Cultured persons feel SAL

of ancient pedigree and guaran-

of the every day world is toward

A great many uneducated people
often excel cultured persons in a
gift for using what might be call
