MIKADO TO RETURN HERE
Comic Opera Will Be Presented Sat
urCiay in MacVicar Chapel.

Topeka is to have another chance
to see the Mikado. That old favorite
of the comic opera stage will be pre-
sented Saturday evening by the Davies
Opera company at MacVicar chapel
on Washburn campus. 1t is to be un-
der the auspices of the student coun-
Gil of the college.
Harry Davies will appear in the
role of the I ird High EXecutioner.
Davies, who has appeared with some
of the leading operate organizations
of America, is one of the most popu-
lar comic opera comedians in the
country. He has sung the role of the
Lord High Executioner nearly seven
hundred times, during a career en-
bracing some ninety-nine operas.
The company has the special rec
ommendation of Prof. z. d. Schoen-
| berger. professor of dramatic art at
Washburn. He has seen the company
| before, and says that they give very
| superior performance.
This is the first entertainment of
! the kind the student council of Wash
! burn has ever attempted.

ton Originator o. Plan.

The first United States bank was
established 13l years ago as part Of
the general scheme for support Of
public credit. Alexander Hamilton,
first secretary Of the treasury, was
the originator Of the plan. Since the
failure of this plan to put banking
on sound basis in the United States
scores of other schemes have been
tried, with more or less success. The
early history Of state banks was an
unsavory one. The charters were
often fraudulently obtained, and
currency issued to three times the
amount Of their capital. Many Of
these banks suspended during the
panic OF 1914, just 1O8 years ago,
and others in 1897 and 1857. Fifty
nine years ago the national banking
system Of the United States was or
ganized, and various laws have since
been passed in relation to the institu-
tons operating under this act. At
the last report there were 7,4O4 ma
tional banks, with . capital Of
$1,O51, 72O,675, with q circulation
outstanding Of 722,125,O24, with

On Tuesday morning, February

read as follows:
Salem, February IL, 10 $50 p. m.
Prof. A. Graham Bell lectured on
his invention at Lyceum hall this
evening. The lecture was one Of q
course of the Essex institute and
about five hundred persons were
present. He closed his lee
ture by stating the practical uses to
which he was confident the telephone
could be applied. The lecture and
experiments were an unqualified
success. The special to the
Globe has been transmitted in the
presence Of about twenty, who have
thus been witnesses to a feat never
before attempted, that is, the send
ing OF newspaper dispatch over the

plished in q time not much longer
