A flaming cake Of ice, burning with the
rapidity of oil-soaked wood: a teapot
which boiled constantly, whether stand
ing on a table or floor; cooked ice cream
and frozen mercury were some or the
mystic sensations introduced at the Cos
mos yesterday by Frederick Andrews
as the most interesting novel feature OF
a bright BILL Appearing with his great
magic kettle" Mr. Andrews attained
many mystifying effects for that por-
ton of the audience not previously told
Of the wonders of liquid air. To those
persons who had read OF these wonders
his experiments proved almost as star
Ting, since he accomplished many new
results with his little kettle. With the
same fluid he fried an egg, and appar-
emily under exact conditions and in the
same way, so froZe rubber that 1t snap
ped like glass, drank from the ket-
Ties spout without ill effects and then
turned the spout toward cake OF Ice
which was instantly consumed by fire.
His performance was doubly worthy for
the reason that it instructed as we'll as
delighted the audience.
The surrounding bill abounds in sing
ing acts of which the Three Musket-
GERS in their burlesque on army Gus
toms are a feature. Archer and Carr
have topical singing and talking skit
with a clever and original line of comedy
on the suffragette question. Arthur Yule
qualified as a musical mimic. The Break
away Barlows give thrilling exhibition
on the revolving ladder, with finish
that earned them many encores, and the
old favorite minstrel act of McNally and
Stewart THE Human Locomotive"
again proved it's popularity.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Polls.

That novelty is not absolutely necessary
for success was proved at Polls last
night when the popular Avenue players
won generous applause in their presenta-
ton of George Barr McCutcheon' s
"Brewster's Millions which has been
before the public for 10 these many
years. The same humor and zest which
have captivated many audiences in the
past lurked in the play last night and
made the evening of those who went to
Polls a pleasant one.
Louise Kent returned to the Poll Play
ers last night and received a generous
portion of the applause and many flow
ers. In the rather small part of Barbara
Drew, she showed that her talent has
been developed and her work was a well
come contribution to the evenings enter
tainment.
The story of Monty Brewster and his
task of spending a million dollars In order
to receive seven million is too old to re-
peat at length. 1t is sufficient to say that
the story was as delightful as ever In
the hands OF the Poll Players. who took
full advantage of every bit of comedy
and pathOs in which the play abOunds.
Paul McAllister, as Monty" was an
excellent center for the action of the
play, and Miss Izetta Jewel, as Peggy
Grey. was completely charming. although
the part did not have many demands on
her ability.

moments. and although Mark Kent was

M'ADOO APPROVES BILL
Would Provide Treatment for
Government Clerks Hav-
ing tuberculosis.

Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo has
given his approval to the bill introduced
in the House by Representative Adam
son of Georgia, providing for the treat
ment at the public health sanatorium at
Fort Stanton, New Mexico. each year. Of
not more than twenty-five government
employees who are sufferers from tuber-
culosis.
IL the bill passes its administration
will be under Sherman Allen. assistant
secretary of the Treasury, who is in
charge Of the public health service.
Held an Important Step.
This is regarded as an important step
in the movement for the welfare of pub
lie employees. IL proposes not only the
care of tuberculosis sufferers in the
government employ, but also has the
effect OF removing the dangers of con-
Iagion from their associates in public
efiice by finding them a proper asylum
elsewhere.
There is no provision made in the bill
for the care of woman clerks in the gov
eminent service. The government hos
pitai at Fort Stanton has accommodations
for men only. In the interest of the
woman clerks, ii is probable that some
other way will be found to provide
proper care for them. The bill extends
its privileges to all male employees of the
executive departments and independent
bureaus in Washington.

Dough Nodded
in Fancy Shapes.

in Fancy Shapes. sma,, bakeries is
the variety of fancy shapes into which
the dough Is nodded. One Of the Italian
exhibits was the pannetone loaf made
up in the form of bee hive. It was dec
Grated with sugar ornaments and
almonds and is especially in demand
about Christmas time Some Of the coun-
tries or towns have peculiarly shaped
bread and rolls in commemOration of
some historic events. The crescent rolls
of Vienna are said to have originated
with a baker who had a shop at the time
the city was besieged by the MOslems in
the sixteenth century.
The haaraffen of Craisheimer dates to
a legend of the fourteenth century which
states that the town was besieged by the
combined forces of several towns which
surrounded the city with the intention OF
starving it's inhabitants into surrender.
After several months a clever old woman
conceived the idea of having a strange
masqueraded figure appear upon the city
walls. The figure was so fantastic in
appearance that the timid enemies fed
in alright. They called it a vision Of
the haaraffen or hair monkey. In COM
memoration Of this bread is baked in a
shape somewhat resembling a fantastic
letter m. and on certain day each
year a quantity of these bread forms are
distributed among the poor
