MIND READING AT THE COLONIAL

If you haven't been in the Colonial
theater since midweek, 1t will prove
an interesting experiment, for there
is mind reading act on the bill wait
ing to have you test it's merits No
matter how long your name or street
address Is the mind reader will call
it out for you, and with no means of
communication between the audience
and the stage whatever The Fres-
colts do some wonderful feats in the
mentelepathy line. On the same bill
are two other acts that are very good,
and inasmuch as the Colonial is built
for warm weather theatergoers IL
makes pretty nice place to drop in
and enjoy oneself while lodging the
heat. A new bill will be put on Mon
day, in which a quartet of male sing
ers will be featured. This is said to
be the most popular act ever booked
into the Colonial.-Advertise

cline in Year.

Although the European war has
enormously increased the volume of
food products exported by the United
States in the last few months, the level
of prices of meat animals in this coun-
try has declined as compared with
prices a year ago.
An official tabulation of prices issued
today by the Department of Agricul-
ture showed that November Is the
average price of meat animals, includ-
ing hogs, cattle, sheep and chickens,
was $3.50 per hundred pounds, de-
crease of just IA cents a hundred from
the prices which prevailed November
Is last year.
The list shows that during the month
October 10 to November Is, 1914, the

Popular Elections in Thirty-0ne
States Prove Expensive for

The popular election of senators OF
the United States is no inexpensive pas
time, as shown by the sworn state
ments filed with the secretary of the
Senate since the election In November
At that time one-third of the member
ship was elected to the Senate, and al
most half a million dollars was ex-
pended by the candidates of all parties
prior to the election. Had all the
members of the Senate been elected on
the same basis of expenditure it would
have cost somewhere near $1.5o0,o0o.
To be exact, s460,777.25 represents the
total of sworn statements of campaign
expenditures filed with the secretary

toria1 honors from the thirty-one states.

spent $156,ss4.33, progressives s55,-

lists $354.74 and independents $1,040.O6.
The average per capita expenditure
was: Democrats. s5,074.6S; republicans,

the state of Georgia, where two SEN
ators were elected the amount sworn
to by all candidates there totaling SAL
