: The heavy wheels and the weight Of

make them more durable. The big

this Is one reason why the tractor is

the usual type of tractor, whether gas

that the original specifications make

The supreme aquatic sensation OF
vaudeville, the Five Diving Bcrlo Bcau-
ties, will be the hcadliners on next
weeks bill at the Empress Theatre, Gin
cinnati's only popular-priced family
theatre. The act should unquestionably
attract big audiences to the Empress,
for not only lovers OF vaudeville as a
pleasing art, but those who love sport.
and those who are csthetically inclined
enough to appreciate the feminine form
divine, will appreciate this act. There
are five beautifully proportioned diving
mermaidS, representing perfect types OF
fascinating young wOmanhood, graceful
as girls can be, radiant in rainbow col
ors, illustrating the charm OF youthful
agility and dainty aquatic skill, in a
glass tank containing $1,000 gallons OF
water.
In connection with this act there will
he two amateur nights next week. The
first will be on Tuesday night, when
young men and bows will be permitted
to demonstrate their diving skill. In
some cases this means plenty OF iun

New York.-Painters union No. 9,

law requires that prevailing wage rates
shall be paid employees on municipal
work. The firm violated this statute and
will now probably pay the amount they
saved to attorneys. Because OF the pre-
cedent it has established, the decision is
considered iar-rcachng one.
