music.
There Is only one Ada Roach" is
an oft repeated phrase in lyceum
Her standing as an entertainer is
preeminent. When Ada Roach smiles.
every countenance is lighted up;
when she sings, every heart sings
with her. Her character sketches
have the sparkle of genius. her I'M
varying good humor is infectious
This smiling Irish girl is inimitable
and before half of her program is
completed some slight gesture of her
hand is sufficient to send the audi
ence into gales Of laughter She is
one Of Americas leading condolences.
And as much can be said OF her
running mate. Ruth freeman, who
wins her share of popularity as an
entertainer in quite different style.
One scarcely knows which is the
more enjoyable, her mimicry ard Ola
iect numbers or her unusual artistry
on the violin.

mated by Labor, the Public and the

| les has accepted and applied the or
; ders OF the Board from time to time.

/ ployes which could not be mutually

The plaintiffs alleged and claimed
that the defendant corporation
agreed to sell and deliver this car to
them in good running order and
that In consequence of its bad con-

in favor of the defendant. and the
plaintiffs in their motion for new
trial urge the single issue Of the
condition of the car.

Trajectory and it's force depended
very largely upon the credbility of
the witnesses. The jury believed the
testimony introduced by the defend
ant, and a careful study of the case
fails to convince the court that their
finding is clearly wrong. The car
was evidently wrecked not because
Of its own defects but of the crimi-
nally reckless speed at which it was
being driven in the attempt to pass
another car around dangerous

London, May 21.-Lord Northcliffe has written a letter to Sir Edward Edgar expressing regret and making re- traction for a statement which Lord Northcliffe made at the dinner of Amer ican dry goods men assembled here on May last. (In the course of his speech Lord Northcliffe said that 'prac- tically all the American hostility over the oil question was based on the state ment of a second rate tinancier not of English birth.
 Lord Northcliffe in his letter to Sir Edward states that he now realizes these remarks 'were unwise and un warranted" and he ''hastens to express his sincere regret and offer an unquan- fled retraction." The letter adds:
 "Your position here and on the other side of the Atlantic is such that no cncomium from me is necessary"
 Sir Edward replied accepting 'the apology and withdrawal in the spirit in which they are offered.'' He added that ito refer slightingly to a Canadian born British subject as not of English birth could not but be deeply resented.
