REAL HEROES IN PHILIPPINES "Little Brown Men" Do Splendid Work for the Government in Upholding the Glory of the American Flag. VOL.24.NO.31. Under the glare of skies reflecting with fierceness the enervating heat of the near equator sun, in the triangles of missimatic jungle and in mountain fastness far away from anything that resembles civilization, an army of Little Brown Men is playing an important part in upholding the glory of the American flag—unheralded, unsung, all but unknown. You back home who have not forgotten that the Philippines exist, probably look upon this land as one in which the American army lolls about in luxury, its most active diversion being to watch the antics of the busy Filipino politician. You give no thought to the Filipino soldier. Why should you? You hear nothing of him. He press agents, no newspapers. Free from desire to rule will "squeeze" his fortune, untaught to take no hand in political strife and pratizes not of immediate independence in order to get office. Instead, he goes about his duty as a soldier should, quietly, silently. The American soldier has his historians' and his poets to recount his brave deeds, and worthy is he of his prose and their song. So bountiful has he contributed of deeds to furnish inspiration for patriotic tongue and pen that the budding Kiplings of the Philippines have dealt only with him. The little brown soldier who wears Uncle Sam's khaki has not yet figured in the poetic picture. Some day there may come from among his people one with a song for his good work and daring deeds, but so far he has had to be content with seeing these deeds recorded only in the curt, cold comment known as general orders and official reports. If he ever indulges in philosophizing it is just possible he may find satisfaction in the fact that his official commendation comes from men who have known him best. Are Kept Very Busy. There is, however, no external evidence that the scout was much of his time in wondering why his deeds do not figure in the poetry columns of the Manila papers, or whether the eighty-oil millions in a land he never has seen talk of his work. He contents himself with doing the best he knows how. His captain knows, and that mightier man they call major knows, and he has been told that even the great man who presides over his destinies at division headquarters knows—and appreciates. So he is specially when rate is good and there is the real work of the soldier to do. He loves that work. Those who know from experience pay tribute to his qualities as a fighting man. Officers and men in the American army are not sparing in their praise of their fellow soldiers of the Philippine scouts. The American soldier has had occasion to test their quality in the days of the empire, and, in spots, since, and he has a respect for the little brown men who may have once been his enemies but who are now by his side. The more reliable testimony to the efficiency of these Filipino soldiers comes from those in the best position to judge, the military experts who have had to do with them. Though short in stature, they are sturdy; in W company and battalion drill they are without doubt the equals of any soldiers, no matter what the color of their skin. In appearance they resemble the Japanese soldiers, but are better looking; Yuan Shih-kai's vaunted troops cannot compare with these natives of the Philippines. The first of the scouts were Macabebes, inhabitants of a section of Pampanga province to the north of Manila. The Macabebes had been pro-Spanish, had served as soldiers under the old regime, and were hated as well as feared by their fellow Filipinos. In the insurrection under Aguinaldo their towns had been burned, their fields devastated, their women and children killed. Then the American flag took the place of the Spanish the Macabebes turned to the Americans for protection. Authority for the creation of commands of Macabebes scouts was granted, and the addition of these to the American army—of so much value that the organization of scout commands resulted from all parts of the strife Filipino has done this does not include the Moro—followed by the army bill of 1901 provided for the building up of a native army, to the strength of 12,000. It was not, however, until 1905 that the present battalion formation was perfected. While provision had been made for THE FEDERAL MILITARY CENTER officers it was at first necessary to recruit the men as employees of the quartermaster's department. Gen. Smith, the present governor general of the Philippines, was one of the first of the commanding officers to organize scout companies. These had native officers and served under Gen. Smith in his Negros campaign along with his regiment of Californians. Practically every province now contributes its quota to the scouts. The present strength of this organization is 5,500. The law authorizing enlistment to a total of 13,000 still stands, but this increase will probably come gradually. The present force is sufficient so long as an infantry of the regular army is kept there at its present strength. Praised by Officers. Some officers of the army believe native infantry could now be substituted for that from home; others look askance upon the suggestion. A seemingly conservative view is that of MaJ. George B. Duncan, senior major of scouts, on duty at division headroom appertaining to scouts. MaJ. Duncan who is a captain of the Fourth infantry, has served with the scouts for three years. His present position is very much that of "father of scouts," so is he regarded by the officers and men of the organization. "I see no reason," said MaJ. Duncan, "why the scouts should not, within three years, comprise all the infantry on the ground." The material? Not a bit of it. There is difficulty in inducing scouts to re-enlist. They like the service. The companies are always full; such a thing as desertion is unknown. There will MAJ. HARRY S. HOWLAND, Commanding Fourth Battalion—Philip- Pine Scouts. be no difficulty in keeping the com- mands recruited up to the fullest limit which congress may authorize. And they are good soldiers—excel- ent." This led to further exposition of the merits of the native soldiery, Maj. Duncan doing the talking. "It is easy to guess the first question an American, making inquiry concerning the native soldiery, will ask. It is whether reliance can be placed in the loyalty of our little brown men. No officer who has served with the scouts has the slightest doubt on that question. They tried and put to the severest test, and own people, and they have never been found wanting. They are intensely proud of being soldiers under the American flag and part of the regular army. Of course they are 'mercenaries'—using the term in the broad sense—as all our soldiers are since they serve for pay, but every officer who has, or who has had, a scout command would be just as willing and willing to serve with that command at his back as with any command in the service. Are Brave and Loyal. "This may seem an exaggeration, but it is a fact. This feeling of confidence is based on absolute faith in the loyalty of the Filipino soldiers, and it may also be taken as high tribute to their ability as fighters. We do not mean that they are as good soldiers, taking them individually, as our American soldiers or as some other white soldiers, but properly offered they are the equals of the famous little Gurkas of India or of any other brown men—certainly as good as any others reared in tropical climbs. And THE APPEAL. you know the tropics produce what Killing cells "tell press, fobble, man." Kilping calls 'fust class fightin' men." Speaking of the characteristics of the Filipino soldiers, Maj. Duncan said stress upon their temperance, their uniform sobriety and their general reliability. In three years' service as commander of a battalion he has, he says, had occasioned to discipline not more than half a dozen men for intemperance. They do not quarrel among themselves. Indeed, the male Filipino seems to be particularly free from a tendency toward personal altercation. Maj. Duncan thinks the Tagalos, inhabitants of Luzon, the best of the scouts, but other officers who have Visayans are equally certain of the superiority of the men from the Visayan islands, which also is high tribute to the Filipino en masse, showing that those in closest touch with respective divisions of the population give first place to that element with EUGENE A. COLUMBRITES, A Veteran First Sergeant of Spouts. which each has had especially to deal. In his annual report for 1907, Maj. Gen. Wood, division commander, pays high tribute to the efficiency of the scouts, making special mention of the operations in Samar and Leyte against the Pulajanes—the last important uprising of natives in any numbers. These two islands are many members, affording a fine field for armed bandits. The Pulajane outbreaks differ from Padronne operations, the latter being in their essence merely the "gang robbery" dear to the Malay heart, while the former include gang robbery, with its accompaniment of murder and pillage, and also take on a religious turn. At one time there were as many as a thousand Pulajanes in arms on the island of Samar. The leaders preached divine inspiration, posed as poes, and had a form of government, and business, however, was the destruction of towns and barrios inhabited by peaceful Filipinos, and murder of all who showed hesitancy to co-operate with the Pulajane plains. MaJ. Harry S. Howland, who enjoys the distinction of being the youngest man of his rank in the service, was in command of the scout battalion whose "especially good work in Samar and Lyte" Gen. Wood so strongly commended. MaJ. Howland is a man of distinction, but almost all of his service during the last five years has been with the scouts. As *captain* of scouts he played an important part in the campaigning against the Moros in Mindanao, there attracting the attention of Gen. Wood and winning for himself on his merits the coveted majority. MaJ. Howland is a splendid illustration of the "natural" soldier which active service in these island has developed. In the same reason that MaJ. Wood believes in the Tazag训 scouts, MaJ. Howland believes in the Visayas; he has served with them. In general orders issued from division headquarters from time to time giving lists of officers and men who have distinguished themselves by specially meritorious acts and personal bravery, the names of a number of Filipino scouts appear alongside those of American soldiers-accredited with similar deeds. Coolness, in appearance and demeanor,印染ing crises—these essential multitudes of the good soldier are revealed in the granting of certificates of merit, as in the stories told by their commanding officers. Queen Maud Is Patriotic. Queen Maud of Norway is most appreciative of the artistic enamel works of her new country, and has made it a point to select pieces of it in jewelry or table ornaments for wedding presents. Both the king and queen have exquisite taste, and their selections have created a new vogue for that lovely art industry. The queen's latest choice was a blue enameled gold plate coffee service for the bride of the secretary of the British legation. Wherever you see a sign, "No Credit it," usually you can get it.

Phipps, who recently married Miss Beatrice Mills, daughter of Ogden Mills, has purchased the Stow estate, near Roslyn, L. I., adjoining the homes of Clarence H.

There's a place where many of the gentlemen send their balls over. Cliss takes a basket of apples with her, and when a ball comes near her she puts it in her basket under the apples. Then when the gentlemen come to look for it they can't find it, and they think it must have gone down stream. Ciss sells the balls to her young man that lives in the village. He gives her twopiece aplice for them and he sells them himself to the makers for sixteen. I would give a few words of encouragement to any young man who may hesitate about leaving home. There is nothing in the world so good for a man, say, between twenty-five and thirty-five years of age, especially if unmarried, as a visit to distant countries, to learn other tongues, to travel, and to bond with strange adventures, such as he may readily encounter by throwing aside the restrictions of home life and taking up work abroad. were careful to point out that the completion of the crews from a nucleus to their full strength was not mobilization in more than a partial sense.

The case closed the question of the mine and the stage. Mr. Valcourt was not without her champions. The decision given by the commercial court was appealed against. The artist was ordered to pay $1,200 damages. Crude Dentistry. The dentistry of the humber inhabitants of China is crude and ancient. The doctor's table, on which is a small heap of human teeth, stands public street. Should a patient require teeth the doctor simply measures the cavity in the jaw and selects from the heels teeth that will exactly fit it. He then holes in the teeth at the sides and inserts a bit of wire to bind them together. The ends of the wire are next inserted in holes that are drilled into the teeth on either side of the cavity and at once the chasm disappears. The happy patient pays his bill and the happy doctor scrutinizes the passing crowd for another patient. AFTER THE WRECK CRIPPLED ENGINEER TALKS OF RESPONSIBILITY. Few Realize Fully What Accident Means to the Man in the Cab with Human Lives in His Charge. "I just dropped in to tell you that the coroner's jury has exonerated you from all blame for the wreck. They are going to hold the block tower man." The old engineer turned his pain-drawn face toward me. A white chapener gently brushed back the wild hairs from his forehead. "Thank you, miss," he said, "and you to sit, for the good news. I knew they could blame it on me, because it was white at Mentor. Poor Denny, he'd tell you so, too, if he was alive. 'All white' he shouted when we came round the siding, and I gave him the answer, 'All white' and pulled her wide open. Then we struck the empties on the siding,—and well you know the rest." He wiped a trembling hand across his eyes as if trying to blot out some horrible vision. His eyes began to sparkle, and a bit of color flashed into his pale cheeks. "I suppose you fellows think I opened her up and went into those boxes just for fun." A smile flitted over his lips, and then he grew serious. "Say, did it ever come to your mind that an engineer might be as anxious about his own life as he is about the lives of those who are riding behind him? My wife and little one don't you suppose my life counts for you? Did you ever stop to think what a collision like that at Mentor means to the engineer? Just try to figure yourself in his place. He rides in four square feet of cab room, surrounded by a mass of levers, rods, and the like. Ahead of him is about three miles of boiler pipe, carrying 200 pounds of steam pressure and enough hot water to cook the meat off his bones in a jiffy. Clattering at his back is 6,000 gallons of water and 26,000 pounds of coal. Under him is 200,000 pounds of engine, and behind there is 600,000 pounds of train. Altogether, he is running along ahead of 800,000 pounds of coal, and behind there is 4,300 pounds of an 80-pound rail by three-fourths of an inch of wheel flange. "Of course, I was the engineer, and they depended on me. There is all ways a lot of fine talk about engineers having the lives of several hundred passengers in their hands. That's all very true; but you don't want to overlook the fact that the engineer's life is right there along with the others. We all take chances, the train crew as the passengers, only our chances are much more, but if chance in five hundred of being killed, or one in twenty-five of getting right where I am now; but a passenger on the train had one chance in about three million of being killed, and one in a hundred and thirty thousand of being hurt. "I see that a lot of people were killed and a whole lot more hurt. I don't want to be a grumber; but it appears to me that you fellows have kinder overlooked the fact that both legs are gone. course, that might be more to your realization, as I do, that for the rest of my life it is going to be my job to hobble out into the middle of some country road and wave a white flag as every train goes by—if you could realize what that means to an engineer—to hear the mocking toot of the whistle as she comes up to the crossing, and to see the sympathetic salute of the engineer and fireman as they go flying by—I tell you my boy, there are some things worse than physical pain. "I was filled with tears. The nurse gently wiped them away, and softly stoked back the hair. "I wouldn't talk any more now," she said. "All right, miss," he replied, putting out his hand to me. "I always obey orders."—B. R. Winslow, in the Sun day Magazine. Remarkable Railway Garden. Between Bedford and Luton, Eng land, on the embankments of the Midland railway, a piece of effective landscape gardening without parallel may be seen. On each side of the railway line at short intervals hawthorn bushes have been planted, and skillful hands have pruned these bushes into a variety of shapes, grotesque and symmetrical; peacock feathers, tables, chairs, bowls, plumes, and other striking models are clearly depleted. As the bushes are just now in full foliage the effect is quite remarkable. In one instance the tail of a rooster was a mass of white bloom, and in another the nodding plumes in a lady's hat were in full flower. As these ornamental trees occur at every few yards' distance for about 20 miles, some idea of their number may be estimated. A remarkable that, although thousands of passengers pass through this unique panorama daily, public attention has never before been directed to it. Railroad Scraps. At a recent convention of railroad storekeepers held in a western city, one of the statements made was that the storekeeper of the average big railroad system carries 55,000 items of material in stock. Railroad "scraps" are of sufficient importance as an economic factor to be divided into 133 classes in order that they may be sold most profitably. HAVE YOU READ THE APPEAL? ST.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 1, 1908. INTERFERENCE WITH NATURAL LAW A Southern senator mentions a foolish interference with natural law: "We have agricultural colleges, but it is surprising the small number of agriculturists they turn out. It is not the fault of the college, however, for as SOON AS THE YOUNG FARMER OR FARMER'S SON GQES TO COLLEGE HE BEGINS TO LOOK TO OTHER THINGS THAN LIFE ON A FARM. He goes in for engineering or some other profession The senator refers to white youth; but the same is the fact with respect to the Afro-American young man. Scarcely one of the Afro-American young men who have enterprise enough to leave home and attend college has any idea whatever to return to the drudgery and starvation wages of the plantation. Having a talent above simply steering a hoe, or superintending an old mule, he would regard it as an interference with the operation of a natural law, for him to go back to the old plantation, and he begins to "look to other things" just as his white brother does. In fact "The Appeal" knows of one instance of an Afro-American youth WASHINGTON HON. WILLIAM H. TAFT Next President of the United States. down South, who left the old plantation, and is now an electrical engineer in Guam. To attempt to educate any man, black or white, and at the same time limit his aspirations to the plane he occupied before he was educated is the most idiotic interference with the natural operation of natural law; yet politicians and preachers are constantly and persistently guilty of just that thing. In their frantic efforts to work out the ancient problem of the irresistible force and the immovable body, they have filled both church and state with wrangles and jangles; and set aside both the constitution of the United States and the Bible, both of which documents sadly interfere with the "natural operation of natural law." The good city of Philadelphia is experiencing a novel sensation caused by the discovery that some of her policemen are professional burglar, having been actually caught, tried and convicted. The result is not surprising and its source is directly traceable to practical politics, which gave men office as a reward for efficiency in ballot box stuffing, and other forms of political rascality. But after all, it must be admitted that these policemen are only imitating the example of their superiors. Beside the men who built the Pennsylvania state house, they are paragons of virtue.

At the time when the Walsh bank failure in Chicago general discussion, Senator Tillman, in a apogee took occasion to criticise it in his usual outrage kins replied to the fire-eating southerner in the foliage. The PEALEI published at that time, and as it is preting where Senator Hopkins stands, it is reproduced; "I think it is about time that the country should be reformer is, this man that is seeking to pillory every honest and every other man before the public as a distiller of the law. Who is he and where does he come to the state of South Carolina. It is known the country Excoriates Ben Tillman the South Carolina Senator Who Advocates Burning Human Beings at the Stake. At the time when the Walsh bank failure in Chicago was the subject of general discussion, Senator Tillman, in a speech in the senate, took occasion to criticise it in his usual outrageous style. Senator Hopkins replied to the fire-eating southerner in the following manner, which the APPREAL published at that time, and as it is pretty good reading, showing where Senator Hopkins stands, it is reproduced; "I think it is about time that the country should know who this modern reformer is, this man that is seeking to pillory every other locality as dishonest and every other man before the public as a dishonest man and a violator of the law. Who is he and where does he come from? He comes from the state of South Carolina. It is known the country over that the Senator owes his seat in this body to the suppression of the Afro-American vote in that state. It is known that the majority of the people of that state by the manipulations of the Senator from South Carolina and the men who are associated with him in that state, have been deprived of their rights, civil and political, that have been guaranteed to them under the Constitution of our common country." "Mr. President, the Senator himself, in a speech in this body on the 24th day of February, 1900, made this statement in the Senate: 'I know nothing about other states, but I acknowledge openly and boldly in the sight of God that we did our level best to keep every Negro in our State from voting.'" "Does anybody believe that if the seven hundred and some odd thousand Afro-Americans in the state of South Carolina had the political rights that are guaranteed to the Afro-Americans of Illinois and to all the people of every other state, that the Senator would be here upon this floor denouncing the national banks of Chicago? Does anybody believe that?" "A year or more he was making some speeches over the country, and he advocated mob law. This is the language the Senator used: 'That seems to be the only practical way until the amendment of the Constitution granting the Negroes suffrage has been repealed. We have shot 'em and hanged 'em and burned 'em in South Carolina until they almost know their proper place now.'" "He bows his head to that. My God, Mr. President, think of a man in the Senate of the United States who can bow approval to the fact that a human being is placed at a stake and burned alive in the twentieth century of our civilization!" "How is a little money of a national bank to be compared with the life of an American citizen? How is the violation of the law by one national bank to be compared with a condition in any section of our common country where men, without opportunity to show their innocence, are taken by a mob and placed upon a pile of fire and burned? That is one of the things to which the Senator here today gives his approval." Referring to the sanguinary combat in Little Rock, in which Jeff Davis took so conspicuous a part, the New York Times remarks: "Not since a certain leading Arkansas threatened to drive Jeff Davis into the Arkansas River with a lightning bug on the end of a corncob has anything so serious happened." This remark shows that the Tribune has investigated the matter very thoroughly and sized Jeff up as simply a cowardly braggart, which is the reputation he bears at home. NO PROFIT IN PLUNDERING. A committee of the German Reichstag is reported to be considering the advisability of abandoning Kiao-Chau, the slice of territory that Germany took from China as a basis of power in the Far East. During the ten years of occupancy over $27,500,000 has been spent upon it, and the plans of development call for millions more; but, after all, it appears to be a national weakness and not a national advantage. It is a blessing to the world when the European nations are convinced that there is no profit in their system of plundering weaker nations. We are glad that Germany is beginning to see the truth in the matter. As a judge, Mr. Taft was quite ready to protect the rights under the law of the weakest man in the community as well as those of property. 1910 olina Senator Who Advocates Burning at the Stake. failure in Chicago was the subject of an, in a speech in the senate, usual outrageous style.

"The republican platform refers to these amendments to the Constitution that were passed by the republican party for the protection of the Afro-American. The Afro-American in the forty years since he was freed from slavery, has made remembrance grove. He is becoming a more and more valuable member of the communities in which he lives. The education of the Afro-American is being expanded and improved in every way. The best men of both races, at the north as well as at the south, ought to rejoice to see growing up among the southern people an influential element disposed to encourage the Afro-American in his hard struggle for industrial independence and assured political status. The republican platform, adopted at Chicago, explicitly demands justice for all men without regard to race or color, and just as explicitly declares an enforcement, and without reservation, letter and spirit of the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution. It is needless to state that I stand with my party squarely on that plank in the platform, and believe that equal justice to all men and the fair and impartial enforcement of these amendments are in keeping with the real American spirit of fair play.—Hon. Wm. H. Taff's letter accepting Republican nomination for Presidency. CANNON FAVORS HOPKINS. But Wants Foss, His Opponent, Returned as Representative. Speaker Cannon gave out a statement at the Union League Club, ex HON. FRANK Chairman of the Republican National publican Party to V pressing his preference for Senator Albert J. Hopkins for re-election over his opponent, Representative George E. Foss, and also intimated that he hoped Mr. Foss himself might be returned as a member of the House from the Tenth district. The Speaker based his decision on the fact that Senator Hopkins is now a member of the Senate Committee on Finance, which has to do with tariff and financial legislation, which, he said, was an important assignment, in view of the platform pledges of the party. After professing his friendship for Representative Pess, and indicating that and himself's free times, as Speaker, appointed him Mr. Norman of the House Committee on Naval Affairs, Mr. Cannon said: "I believe he can serve the people of the State of Illinois and of the whole country better as a member of the House of Representatives and as chairman of the Committee on Naval Affairs than he can elsewhere." WILL AID BIG CANAL. Senator on Record as Heartily in Favor of the Chicago to Gulf Waterway. In the near future legislation of vital interest to Illinois will receive earnest consideration. Not the least important of this legislation will appertain to the waterway project. It is proposed to connect the great lakes with the Gulf of Mexico. THE NEW YORK TIMES "The Republican party has been for more than fifty years the consistent friend of the Afro-American. It has his freedom and citizenship, it wrote into the organic law the declarations that proclaim his civil and political rights, and it believes today that his noteworthy progress in intelligence, industry and good citizenship has earned the respect and encouragement of the nation. We demand equal justice for all men, without regard to race or color, and declare once more, for the enforcement of reservation, for the spirit of the thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth amendments to the Constitution which were designed for the protection and advancement of the Afro-American, and we condemn all devices have for their real aim his dischrismement for reasons of color alone, an unfair, unAmerican and repugnant to the supreme law of the land." Republican Platform, 1888. Senator Hopkins is already on record concerning that project. His influence and work as a member of the Senate has made him largely responsible for the success already achieved in procuring appropriations to conduct surveys of the contemplated route. Lorimer to Introduce Bill. Representative Lorimer, who has been conducting the independent waterway campaign in Illinois and adjacent states, proposes at the forthcoming session of congress to introduce a bill appropriating not less than $1,000,000 to begin the work.

It is feared that a new man would and make much progress in support of the waterway by reason of the fact that he himself with unimportant, committee assignments. There are other things of importance to Illinois pending in the determination of which Senator Hopkins will have a voice. SOUTH DEGRADES RACE. "It seems to me that if the South persists in its present attitude it will inevitably degrade the Afro-American, taking from him all incentive to high endeavor and crowding into the darker places and compelling ways to tread a level lower than that trodden by his white countrymen.

And all members of the reception committee are to appear in evening dress, as it is intended to make this the sweltest boat excursion that was ever taken out of St. Paul. Owing to the large membership only a limited number of invitations can be extended to persons not members of the order, and the members will govern themselves accordingly. As this excursion is the authorized annual outing of the order each member of the order is held responsible for only one ticket. However, such friends of the members that they may desire to be invited will be taken care of as far as the capacity of the boat and barge will allow. Bear in mind that there are 519 members of this order and they are to be cared for first. Tickets, 50 cents; children under 12 years, 25 cents. A full brass band, the best of music, will accompany the excursion. Grand Master Dillingham attended a joint meeting of the U. B. F. and S. M.

The Defective Page THE FIGHT The success of "The Girl of the Golden West" at the Grand celestial all past records for public favor for summer stock offerings, yet the presentation the coming week of "Salomy Jane" is expected to eclipse even the record of the Behascо play. New York critics, with a unison so uncommon as to be remarkable, declared "Salomy Jane" to be the most refreshing and original play of the year. Paul Armstrong has made a magnificent dramatization of "Salomy Jane's Kiss," as Bret Hartе called his brief story. It is a tale of picturesque and primitive passion. A young desperado, about to be hanged for a cause, is asked by the vigilantes if he has any word to send to his people. An indifferently careless, beautiful daughter of Kentucky living with her father among the California redwoods, wooed in vain by many suitors, is witness of the capture. Half in romantic tenderness, half in grim humor, one of the vigilantes suggests that she assume the office of kissing him good-bye. The kiss awakens the dormant passion in both of them, fires them to heroic attempts, and ends by the escape with regeneration of the desperado, and his marriage to the slumberously passionate wild-wood beauty. As the man in the play, Mr. Thurlow Bergen, will find a role in which his many admirers will find much to enjoy. It is conceded to be one of the strongest acting parts written in years. Edythe Chapman as Salomy Jane, the role which Miss. Eleanor Robson played, is sure to make a genuine hit, her remarkably artistic performance of the "Girl" in the Belasco play would make safe this prediction. Mr. Neill will assume the role of Jack Marburry, a part something on the order of Jack Vance, which he played in "The Girl of the Golden West," and a part even greater in acting possibilities. Scenically the "Salomy Jane" production will be the most pretentious and sumptuous offering of the entire season. entire place has been newly painted, papered and refinished, making it a strictly first-class place and the most complete club the city has had in a long time. It is the intention of the officers of the club to endeavor to make it a model club, conducted on strictly first-class business lines. The club is run for the benefit of its members only and such visitors from other cities who may come to St. Paul. The officers are: Wm. Christman, president and treasurer; Samuel Perry, secretary and manager; Carl D. Pickett, chairman of House Committee. STATE FAIR NOTES.
