A very pretty and laughable little 2u last Fri- farce-comedy was put day evening at the Majestic theater, entitled The Trip Tomorrow. ‘rhose taking part were Miss Kitty Hasen- muller, Harry Williams and Aroburn Harris. They played their parts like veterans ot the stage and afforded many hearty laughs, Little Miss Des- sie Richardson, in Indian costume, was also quite entertaining, as was Miss Doris Winn in a song. The Majestic, under the manage- ment of Mr. and Mrs. Hartsell and son, is quite a popular amusement place, and the interest they take in bringing our local talent to the front should be appreciated. Every Friday evening they put on specialties by some of Lakeland's younger set which not only is interesting, but encouraging and helpfuj to the chil- dren.

Washington, July 29.—(Special) —-The river and harbor appropriation bill which was sigued by President Taft on Thursday, carries in round numbers $33,259,000, the Senate having added to the bill as it passed the Iouse $8,054,000 and struck out 233,000, making a net increase of $7,821,000. While this amount seems large the general consensus of opin- ion is that much of the increased ap- propriation was well advised, espe- cially that portion dealing with the Mississipi river for levee work, an imperative demand having been made upon Congress by the thousands af- fected by the floods of last spring Wwhich not only destroyed milions of property but lives as well, The signature of the president to (i and harbor bill makes more certain the policy of an annual wa- terway bill, which has been one of principles of the Na- tional Rivers and Harbors Congress sinee its organization ten or more rears ago. Absorbing Question. An absorbing question to those our curious possibilities in bolitics and clection results is what would happen in the event no candi- date for president should receive a najority vote in the electoral col- lege, and the election should, under the constitution, bo imposed upon the House of Representatives, in which the States in such emergencies vote severally as units. The two great political parties being a tie in the unit control of the States, an elec- tion, with the epresentatives adher- ing to party lines, would be impos- sible, unless by reason of death or resignation there should result such @ change of the unit complexion as Lo permit an clection, Of course, it who see is an exiremely remote probability, unuwm"s ‘I n‘"fl"‘ but stil] the very existence of the Mr. and Mrs. J. children returned last night from Daytona Beach, whepe they have been enjoying the surr bathing.
