Since the fall of the temporal power, the United States sends no diplomatic representa- tive to the Vatican, and consequently there is no nuncio or legate at Wash ington.-Maurice P. Egan, U. s.

CAN'T SELL SUGAR IN
 SWEDEN WITHOUT CARD

Stockholm, Sweden, Nov. 14.-Aft- CT Nov. 1, no sugar may be sold In Sweden except upon presentation Of a sugar card. A stock taking through out the kingdom has shown that some method of controlling the con- sumption is unavoidable, and the card system, patterned on Germanys methods of regulation, was decided on. One kilogram (2.2 pounds) will be allowed per month per capita, ex- cept for December, when two kilo- grams will be available.
 The sugar shortage has been mark ed for some months, and has lately assumed serious proportions. It had been hoped and expected, however, that this falls sugar-beet harvest would make any state regulation of consumption unnecessary, but 1t has now been found that. including this years production. there will be avail able only about 3 kilograms per per- son from now until Nov. 1917.

.Amusements
POLES

Music and minstrelsy are the happy factors in Tom Brown's Musical Min strels, featured in the program at Poli's, the first half of the week. The minstrel men stepped right to the forefront yesterday and captured hon. ors at the opening performatces with their songs, instrumental numbers and comedy. There are seven in the com pany and they have a most pleasing arrangement of high-class material that brought them most favorable comment.
 ! My Country First is the title of a photodrama of real interest, in which international intrigue figures promi- nently. It deals with a young Ameri- can who perfects an explosive that is sought by foreign powers. How he thwarts their plots makes a most in- teresting and thrilling story that is we'll staged. Tom Terriss and big company are seen in the production. Pathe News, with review of world events and comedy cartoons, Is anoth- CT pleasing film feature.
 Lew Wilson, a very versatile chap, pleased immensely with his songs and stories and left them wanting more after his accordeon selections.
 Jack Warren & Dorothy Mann did very we'll with a comedy sk1t "A Sur prise for Mother" a playlet along un- usual lines, The piece sparkles with bright lines and, the comedy situa- tions are we'll taken careN of by these talented players.
 DeLisle & Vernon, a pair of dainty misses, sang and danced their way i'm to the good graces of the audience and most pleasingly handled some very clever material.
 The program was completed with a most entertaining acrobatic novelty by McGlen-Sutton Trio, who proved themselves very versatile in serving up a really delightful oddity.

Work of the Chemists.

A chemist was employed at a large salary by q well known concern which had formerly employed none. The very first day he made suggestion which saved the firm enough to pay his salary for 8 year.
 Out in Hawaii they discovered that 10000 acres of fine pineapple lands were useless because of too much man. ganese in the soil. A chemist showed the growers how to paint the leaves of the. pineapple stalk with a certain iron preparation which exactly coun- teracts the ill effects of the manga nese.
 A Philadelphia chemist told how he was asked to give an expert opinion to a woolen manufacturer about the use of soap.

English as . World Language.

English is well adapted to use as a world language because of its rich vocabulary and it's grammatical sim prctty. It is the literature of liberty. and social equality. The fundamental hindrance to the spread of the English lan~ .age as world language is its IT, rational spelling. It is difficult because of the superfuity of letters and the confusion of representations. If these objections were removed and the pro portonal rate of increase of the nine teenth century continues English will be the language of the workable Witt Croissant at ChautauQua.

PLAZA.

The Plaza commenced the week with capacity audiences at yesterdays per formances and if one may judge by the amount of applause donated to each feature, there will be two more days of crowding and jamming at the popular amusement resort.
 Harvest Days" a musical comedy miniature with Tom Akin. Gene Mar key, Pauline Harris and the usual arr ray of feminine beauty in the back ground, worked their audience to a verftable frenzy of enthusiasm with their pleasing repertoire of new song and dance diversions and their fun- usually funny comedy end. The com edian in the act deserves unlimited credit for the manner in which he keeps the laughs coming his way and the piece as a whole is worthy of the commerdatton of the most exacting. There are ten in the cast and a stu- pendous scenic 1nvestiture is dis played.
 Billy Brown was another hit and he earned the rousing reception he re- ceived. Billy sings a couple of songs and then goes in for initiating in a comedy vein. his greatest effort being his s'rube'' character His material is wholesomely original and sure of laughs, but nobody else could possibly have handled 1t as cleverly as MT. Brown himself. .s.g ..-ssis es
