High ‘Class Vaudeville and Motion Pictures. A pleasing addition to the Audito- rium amme was the appearance of Miss Irene Morelle in a duet with her sister Lillan.

Thursday witnessed the initial ex- Mbition of feature pictures at the Breed theater, arranged for the bal- ance of the week, and proved to be one of the best programmes of the season, there baing an abundance of variety and much of the sensational. The great Biograph sensation, en- titled A Corner in Wheat, is an ob- Ject lesson to gamblers, beginning with a motion picture reproduction of Mil- let's masterpiece, The Sowers, this scene alone being one whose poetical and subtle charm is felt by everyone present and makes a singularly ap- te and Impressive introduc- to the real action of the picture., No swbject has even . been produced more timely than this: powerful story of the wheat gambler,- coming as it does when agitation is rife against that terrible practice of cornering commodities that are necessities of e. The entire programme is an espe- elally fine one, and appeals to oune and all alike. e Master Noonan is constantly delight- ing his ocountless hearers, and last evening rendered The New Born King, an exquisite Christmas® song, in a faultless manner, being compelled to respond to numerous encores. ‘This number he sings in his choir boy's costume, his simple charm of manner and splendid work winning everyone in the house. Christmas day the performance will run from 1.30 to 5 p. m, and from 7 te 10 p. m. SINGLING OUT LA FOLLETTE. The Washington correspondent of The New York Tribune denies that the administration has shut itself to t senators, with the single exception of La Follette: is an apparent effort in some W to create .the impression that nsurgent republicans are no longer welcome at the White house, and that their recommendations with regard to patronage are being received with with scant courtesy. This impression is wholly erroneous, and grows out of the attitude of the White house toward Senator La Follette and those members of the Wisconsin delegation in the house who do the bidding of the junior sena- tor. Senator Dolliver, Senator Cum- mings, and indeed all others who voted against the tariff bill, find no difference In their reception at the White house, and the same is true of the house insurgents, with the excep- tion of the little group of Wisconsin members referred to. So, too, in the case of patronage, the recommenda- tions of all insurgents, with the excep- tion of Mr. La Follette and his hench- men, receive as much consideration from this administration as did the recommendations of the same men as the past.” This is confirmed as to La Follette by the correspondent of The Boston Transcript, also a republican authority. v 4 bhe said that the republican leaders (Aldrich, Hale, etc.) of the senate have definitely decided to hold no counsel with and pay no attention to anything Senator La Follette of ‘Wisconsin may do. They do not agree with Speaker Cannon in ruling out of the party Senator Cumming and other republicans who voted against the tar- iff bill, but they say that La Follette voted against them so much as to constitute himself & democrat, and henceforth will be treated as if he were one of the minority party.” Inasmuch as Senator La Follette is about to come up for re-election in a . neighboring state, the interesting question is raised whther here in Towa the progressives will be willing to ac- ceut the alignment made at Washing- ton, and.while classing themselves as repubMoans consent to look upon and speak of La Follette as a democrat. * The question is one Senators Dolli- ver and Cummins are likely to find embarrassing, for if, as is the forecast, the east joins in the Wisconsin con- test to defeat the fighting senator, there will be a rallying cry to pro- gressives everywhere to come to the rescue, and nowhere will the call be more insistent than on the eloquent orators who represent Jowa, and who in an em y could do great execu- tion among' the Wolverines. Up until thig time La Follette, while not always admired as to his meth- ods, nor looked upon as the coming leader, has still been counted one of the real ers for a new deal in na- tional affairs. No man has done more to set the woods afire than La Follette, and in no lltatn :n- t‘he\l':ubeen 0:; greater revolution than in state 'b::ll His spirit has been ad- ven when his aim has been oEie Tead Out of the party tte read out of the party ition that the o lead- " to visit ‘White 2011 BOY’S SUIT. Paris Pattern Neo. 2011 - All Seams Allowed. Navy blue serge has heen used for the development of this practical little suit, which may be made up to advan- e in any of the mixed worsteds. The fullness of the front and back of the blouse is distributed_in- a double box- plait, the closi béing hidden under the plait at the front. e Jower edge is gathered in by an elastic run through the hom-culnf. The full sleeves are plaited and stitched to cuff depth at the wrist, or, if preferred, these may be gathered into narrow wristbands of the material. The regu- lation knickerbockers are gathered into the knees by elastic run through the hem-casing. o The pattern is in five sizes—5 to 13 years. For a boy of 9 years the suit requires 43 yards of material 27 inches wide, 3% yards 36 inches wide or 2% yards 43 inches wide. Price of pattern, 10 cents.

He has published an open letter to all other| “jolly good fellows” in that city, sug- gesting that instead of going out for a good time and spending from $10 to $300 they just send a letter to this origi- nal “Good Fellow,” through one of the local papers, sairing how many poor children they will protect against the grief of empty stockings on Christmas or New Year. The “Good Fellow” will send, In return, the names and ad- dresses of as many children as the writer promises to provide for. No money is asked for, none is sent. The one who replies to this appeal is just given the names, addresses,’ sex and age of so many children; he buys little sor much for them; he sends his gifts or takes them; he gains neither vertising nor notoriety; he comes in eontact with no organization; his identity is not revealed; he can make his own investigation and the whole transaction is just as anonymous as old Santa Claus himself. The scheme is clever, safe and at- tractive. The Plainfield paper has hunted up the “Good Fellow” and in- dorsed him without reservation, but without disclosing his' identity. Plent; of people would give if they knew ex- actly where and what to give. This| plan seems to bring a Merry Christmas and full stockings to many a child who hod no prospect of either. The Visit- ing Nurse association is working along somewhat the same lines in Newark. Newark (N. J.) News. Proposed Yale Dormitory. There are features in the plan to erect a campus dormitory which shall be honored with the name of Henry P. ‘Wright, dean emeritus, so to speak, which should appeal to every Yale man and to many who hope to be. It is to occupy in part the present site of Alumni hall. Under such circumstancess we could toll the doom of old Alumni{ “without a sigh”” There are connected with the building many tender mem- ories, but not a few of them hark back to Professor or Dean Wright. The substitution of his name for that of old Alumni, and memories of him for those which twine around Alumni and its associated halls, will be an acceptahle sacrifice. Furthermore, it is expected—and the expectation would seem to be reason- able—that such a dormitory will ac- commodate the members of each freshman class, now shut out from the campus because of lack of dormitory facilities. The time when there would be dormitory room sufficient to accom- modate all undergraduates who wished to come into the fold has been hereto- fore distinguished only in the visions of loyal Yale men. It seems hard to concelve that it may be so near. Yet it may be that one more building would catch up with the growth of the col- lege. The hope is permissible, A quar- ter million dollar dormitory on that corner which used to be devoted to “subterranean fires” will be in itself a great improvement. Surely the in- spiration of the cause should make the raising of the fund for it easy. Only—there should be a care not to refer to it too genefally as the Wright “memorial” Professor Wright is in himself far from being a memory yet, we hope; he is a living reality. Some day—great may its distance be—it may be a memorial. Meanwhile it should only be a reminder that the loved dean is with us yet, and enjoying his earned retirement.—New Haven' Register. The craze for roller skating which hag been revived in the United States within the last few years has:spread to other countries, and the introduc- tion of the American skate into for- eign markets offers a widening field to manufacturers.
