DRAMATIC CONTEST WONDERFUL SUCCESS:
 THEATER PACKED

Vivian Nilsson, junior, best act ress.
 Donald Shellhorn, senior, best actor.
 And There Was Light" junior play, the best performance.
 These were the choices of the great audience which last night packed the Liberty theater to witness presentation of the four plays sponsored by the Seward High School Dramatic Club.
 While the Seniors, Sopho- mores and Freshmen classes each presented witty comedies, the audiences favor leaned toward the more serious, last evening; in addition, it is quite probable the prize winner-the Junior play contained greater opportunity for the cast to display their histri- onlc abilities. though the Sen- for play, Speaking to Father" was also an exceptionally good vehicle permitting the characters ample scope.
 The vigorous element of young blood, in fine fettle, of each and every one of the participants, served to accentuate the wealth of picturesque local talent; the audience enjoyed every effort prodigiously; it was an evening of sheer pleasure and class spon- sOrS received congr atulations from many for the fine present. ationS
 The gate receipts far exceed ed fondest expectations, sufficient funds having been taken in to carry through successfully many small things hoped for in the i past, besides a curtain for the school stage.

Government at It's Best

Farmers in the vicinity Of Harvey receive s4,953.15
from the state railroad board and others at Donny-
brook get checks to the tune Of $7,107 .2o-and thereby
see government at its best.
The money was paid out by the state regulatory body
to persons who held storage tickets issued by defunct
elevators at the two places. Some Of them probably
never hoped to get their money, so. when Ben G. Larkln,
state railroad board chairman, appeared with the checks
he was received with open arms.
The money was obtained by the railroad hoard BY
liquidating the assets Of the insolvent elevators and de-
voting the proceeds to payment Of claims preferred by
the holders of storage tickets. II the assets are insult
fcient the board may, under the law, collect on the
bonds which each elevator Is required to post before 1t
is licensed to do business.
The law is a sound one and has been soundly admin
istered. The state railroad board, as now composed, has
been careful not to overstep the grounds OF its legal
authority and thus interfere with business, but it has
been just as careful to enforce the law honestly and i'm
partially and to protect the rights of private persons.
This is government at its best because while it does
not involve the entry OF the state into business, 1t does
mean the regulation and supervision of business IN such
a manner that the public interest is protected. The
creditors of the elevators at Harvey and Donnybrook
will feel that the state railroad board has done a good
job for them.

The Real LOw-DOWn

American businessmen are likely to get the real Glow
down. on the condition of American business when the
National Association of Credit Men meets this week in
Boston.
They will discuss the existing situation from the stand
point of the men who follow up the statesmen and collect
the bills. Many a businessman knows there often Is a
vast difference between selling something and getting the
money for 1t. This gathering will be able to estimate
Just what the difference is now as compared with other
times. Therein lies one Of the best indications as to
the commercial pulse of the nation.
Statesmen reporting on their ability or inability to dis
pose of goods, cannt always know how much of the dis
inclination to buy is caused by actual lack of business or
by fear for the future. The credit man, by checking up
on unpaid accounts and the manner in which people are
meeting their obligations, presents important data from
another angle.
There are a good many indications that the Amert-
can people, as a whole, are catching up with the pace
which they set for themselves two years ago. Men with
assured incomes have been paying off their old bills
They are getting their individual houses in order.
When this job is completed it may be that another
orgy Of spending will start, gradually increasing N speed
and volume until the individual begins to wonder If he
isn't in deep enough. This may prove to be one Of the
outstanding causes for the wide fluctuations in bust
ness volume. II this theory has any basis Of truth, 1t
is comforting to know that We have begun to reach the
end of the "paying-up" period.

Hope for the Future

During 1890, according to the National Safety Council
Americas accidental death toll reached a total Of 99,0
lives-the highest annual figure on record.
The motor vehicle toll-33,0o0 lives-was highest
closely followed by 10000 deaths in homes. It is said
that three billion dollars is a modest estimate Of the
direct cost Of accidents for the year.
The United States has the highest accident toll OF
any country in the INDEPENDENTLY due to automobiles
Carelessness and ignorance are genuine menaces to the
health and happiness Of the nation.
Only in the case Of school children has any definite
accident reduction been made. Safety education IN
schools has not only prevented current accidents, but 1t
instuls a safety message that is carried through life.
During a period when accidental deaths to persons OF
all ages increased % per cent, deaths among children
under Is dropped 23 per cent.
The figures don't speak very we'll for the adult popula-
ton of the country but they do show there Is hope for
the future.

Editor, Journal of the American Med
ical Association

Already several institutions in our
country recognize the fact that the
inhalation of dust containing silica
many produce changes in the human
body that are dangerous to health
and to life. Twenty-Five years ago
people thought that anyone who in
hailed some dust was making his lungs
subject to tuberculosis. There was no
attempt to distinguish one kind of
dust from another.
Now a great many industrial dis
eases associated with the inhaling of
various kinds of dusts are being stud
led and analysed and some scientific
evidence is being applied to the sit
uation. Workmen used to talk about
miners tuberculosis, grinders rot, ma
sons rot, and potter's rot. It is now
recognized. as pointed out by Pro-
fessor E. l.. Coils, that all of these
diseases represent exposure to just
one kind of dust. that which contains
fine particles of silica.
Silica dust is widespread In nature
and largely associated with various
industries. 1t is present in quartz,
quartzite and flint, in sandstone and
in the rocks through which various
ores run, and in grindStones and in
millstones. It Is also used In the
manufacture of silica paints and In
some abrasive soaps and stones. Silica
dust is also used in the manufacture
of china and e~arthenware.

Breathing Air Laden With Fine Silica
Dust Exposes Factory Workers
to Grave Diseases

Men working in open quarries run
less risk from the dust than those
who work on stone under half open
sheds. Metal grinders working in
factories have severe exposure, but
the hazard is probably worst among
miners in under galleries.
X X X
In various foreign nations, the law
grants compensation for occupation
al silicosis. South Africa has recog-
nized the prevalence of the condition
among gold miners. Great Britain,
Australia and Canada, and most re-
Gently Germany, have provided for
compensation for workers in other
industries in which silica Is a hazard.
So important is this subject, that an
international conference was called
to consider the situation in August,
1880.
Very fine particles OF dust can be
inhaled just like smoke o r vapor.
Large particles get into the breathing
tubes and become entangled in mucus.
They may be swept out by coughing
or they may become entangled in the
tissues, whereupon degeneration &C.
ours and inflammation of the bron-
chial tubes follows. Very fine par
ticles of dust containing silica are
taken up by cells in the spaces of the
lungs and set up a reaction leading
to death of the cell. fibrous changes
and the formation of nodules in the
lungs which represent very small

That's fine. If there isn't any kicking, look out be-

She is one Of the most popular

She picked up the trick of reading

Before leaving the university, she had
made quite a reputation at the

Well, she chit" the big town just
at a time when the tea rooms were
going in for "gypsies" in a big way.
At lunch hour crowds of superstitious
and curious danasels would jam these
tea rooms. They still do. There are
scores of such spots all yer the mid
town section. She noted that tips
were offered when particular "spe-
cial" Information was desired.
After a few weeks, it began to look
as though a JOB might not come her
way for a while. So she went to a
customer, got herself a gypsy outfit
and, being a young lady of dark COM
rlexicn, found work as a tea reader.
Being a smart young woman, she
made an immediate impression. Soon
all the dear, curious ladies' were
seeking her out; giving her good tips
for special attention.
Recently she opened her own "psy-
chic parlor" under the name OF Prin-
cess something -or-other, and the
