"BIOod viii TeIP'

This is the lesson the play at the
Colonial Theatre taught last night.
II also taught that some in the audi
ence had bad manners. There are
theatre manners as well as parlor man
ners. Ladies and gentlemen are not
supposed to go to the theatre to talk
TO the disturbance of others who want
to listen to the lines on the stage and
who want to enjoy the play. To dis
turb others in a theatre by ones own
iuC essant or intermittent conversation
is bad manners. No lady or gentleman
will do this, aud Blood Will Tell"
even in the audience as well as on the
stage.

More Variety in Future.

The naval authorities have recog-
nized the fact that to insure con-
tentment among enlisted men 1t
will be necessary 10 break into the
deadly routine of hard drills and
So, under the program planned by
Secretary Daniels, there will be
more variety and atractlyeness
about the life Of the sailors of the
A .lantic feet during the present
year and hereafter.
One of the most important
changes is the provision Of Mediter-
raenean cruises, alternating with
the re gular drill cruises in the
West Indies. The enlisted men, as
we'll as the officers, will be given
thirty days leave each year.
Much of the summer drill work

know almost a year in advance the
itinerary of their ship.

FIRST ANNUAL MEETING OF NA-
 TIONAL CHAMBER COMMERCE.

Washington, Jan. l7-Plesident and Mrs. Taft will entertain at the White House January 22 the dele gates and ladies attending the First Annual Convention of the Chamber O Commerce of the United States of America. The entertainment will take the form of a reception and afternoon tea.
 The annual meeting will last three days, Jan. 2l to 2S, and will come iu the midst of the Tariff hearings before the Ways and Means Committee. Therefore, in addition to the delegates expected there will be large number of business men in Washington inter ested in this movement to bring the Judgment of the organized business forces of the country to bear upon the business problems of the Nation.
 Great interest attaches to this first annual convention; for the Chamber of Commerce of the Unit ed States is just eight months old, having grown out of the national commercial conference, called to meet in Washington last April. The officers and directors then chosen have within less than a year made the Chamber a power in the busi- ness affairs of the Nation. The need of a Chamber of Commerce of the United States was seen before ever the Constitution of the United States was written. In 17S9 Pela- tiah Webster outlined the place of such an organization, yet only in 1912 did it become a fact. The rapid growth of the recent past indicates how decided a need this Organiza- ton will fill. Two hundred and thirty-five business organizations are now united in one.
 The first annual banquet will be held January 22. President Taft will be the principal speaker. The guests of the Convention will be heads of departments and Congress sional leaders. The Chamber of Commerce is non-partisan. It is an organized endeavor to render avail able for Congress and the Govern ment the opinion of the business in- terests of the Nation.

Poor old Alaska is about to uu- dergo another period Of torment.
 A party of Seattle teachers. de- slrins to tour the territory, have written the mayors of numerous AL aska cities stating their intentions and saying that they hope to de- fray expenses Of the tour by giving concerts and entertainments. The. writer says that they have some. talent among them" and that she has given some successful pro- grams"
 Let us admouish these teachers bs they young or old, that Alaska does not care anything about pay ing their expenses on the proposed tour. There are a lot of young male Alaskaus up here who might be induced to pay the expenses of a few of them in the journey through life. but the public is get ting mighty good and sick of being buneoed by incompetent performers who work their cracked voices and impose their half baked talents on us for real money.
 We have been sung at and elocutloned and read to and enter taiued and held up and literarily sandbagged and artistically garrot- ed and posed before and attituden- ized and serpentiue danced into a daze by cheap performers, until we are sick and tired of the mention Of amateur theatricals. Why do not these teacher-eutertainers open their season in Seattle and if they make money enough out Of the venture, take a sensible tour of Alaska in a manner beHtting the noble profession of pedagogy?
 These dear young. or old, ladies are mistaken in their estimate of the Alaskan. We are not a be- nighted community gasping for the thrills of a school teacher reciting something about a curfew not ring ing tonight. and we don't care to spend our money or our time in watching some knee sprung old girl trying to initiate Maude Adams. So our advice is for the ladies to earn their money in their own community and then visit Alaska like real la dies and not like incompetent yaudevillains

the Quartette. OF typical Christmas
vocal numbers. these two are among
the mast attractive and interesting
that anywhere could be found. The
first in particular, breathes a Christ
mastide spirit in every word and note.

Southern delegates a printed circular
in which it was said that George Law
in 1S48 had acted with the Free Soil
party and had supported Van Buren,
for President. That, of course, an
tagonized the Southern delegates.
There was no time to counteract
this statement. When the convention
met next day we noticed that there
had been a change in the views Of
Southern delegates, but we did not
regard it as very serious until the
roll call began. Alabama was the
first State to respond. She cast her
solid vote for the nomination OF Mil
lard Fillmore. The moment Ala
bama5s vote was announced we knew
that Fillmore would be nominated be-
cause he would be supported by the
Southern delegates.
1T was a very skilfully played
trick and il was successful. Had 1t
not been played I have always felt
certain that George Law would have
been nominated for President by the
American party, instead of Millard
