Although the great baseball picture arrived on a day that the Breed did pot make a change of the entire bill, {t makes it a double attraction for those who wish to see the great strug- gle for the baseball championship more than once. Today, there will be an entire change of bill from yester- day, and those coming to see the base- ball pictures again, will find a com- plete change in the balance of the bill, which outside of the big sporting event will prove to be a most attractive one. New York Giants vs. Boston Red Box is a most spirited contest, and shows all the most important events in a manner that will satisfy the most exacting patrons. The point of obser- vation is clearly seen to be the choic- est one on the fleld, and, as a result, the pictures are all that ocould be de- sired. Individual players are seen at close range, as weil as excellent views of the great grandstands with the multitude of fans. The picture is a most satisfactory one, and will be shown today for the last time, Ben- pett and Caulkins sing the latest and best illustrated songs, and win the ‘hearty approval of the house, The Bass Clef Concerts. The executive committee of the Bass Clef 1s very anxious to bring the peo- ple who intend to hear the concerts of January 31 and May 23 to appreciate the double advantage of enrolling as sasociate members. The Bass Clef is an entirely self-sustaining organiza- tion. . The active memjers, through a system of dues, defray the current ex- penses of th® year, and concert re- celpts above incidental expenses are devoted te solo features. The associate members, by susberib- ing in advance for the season's con- perts, assure a reasonable return, and the committee is enabled to engage artists with the certainty of being able to meet their obligations. It follows that the larger the enrollment of as- members, the more expensive soloists the club will be warranted in engaging. The advantages to the as- poclate members lle in that they are known as the backers of a movement for more and better music in our city, and also in that they are able to get better seats for the concerts, since associnte members are given the selec- tion of seats before the public sale . No advance payment is re- q fill out an associate member's card, and tickets will be mailed you ot time of concert. These tickets will be exchanged for reserved seat tickets and paid for then. Cards may be otten from the active nfembers or at avis' bookstore on Friday or Satur- lay of this week. “The Greatest Dramatic Hit in Years.” “Madame X” is what the player- folks call a growing play. Its methods and sityations are so intensely inter- $sting that instant favor is always ac- complished, but the second act fascinates more than the first, and the third grips the heart strings with more magnetic interest, and the fourth cre- ates the sense that this is a remark- able story, this extraordinary drama of “Mother-Love.” Much has been related of what is said and done in this play, by the ablest critics in the world and their unanimous verdict \is “The greatest drema of the age.” The author Alex- andre Bisson and the players of “Madam X" have created what may be fairly” regarded as a classic, and when it is played here on Tuesday, 26th, at the Davis with Adelaide French in the leading role it will be sure to de- light a. large and distinguished au- dience, - Brief State News 8eymour.—Great quantities of ap- Dles are ‘being shipped from the T.

POETRY vy 4 HIS GREATN He dfdn’t cllmb the hills of famé But kept the middle ground; On history’s pages ne'er his name By any will be found. But he was brave and he was good, And always did his best; And through his life he ever stood Face front to every test, Go_ask his wife If you would know The xecord that he made; And to his little children go, Ask them how daddy played, And then go ask his neighbors, tee, And hear them sing his praise; They’ll tell you he was kind and true, That honor marked his ways, Greatness is not by numbers told, Nor always written down On_history’s pages; all that's gold Goes not into a crown, But men are great who day by day Are cheerful, kind and true, And glve their best along life's way Of service to the few. —Detroit Free Prees. FAITH. Fain would I hold my lamp of life aloft Like yonder tower built high above the reef; Steadfast, though tempests rave winds blow soft, Clear, though the sky dlssolve in tears of grief. or For rlm;?lln;ess passes, storms shall not ablde; A little patience and the fog is past, After the sorrow of the obbing tide The singing flood returns in joy at last. —Cella Thaxten D e eI et “THY WILL.” We to execute Thy will 4 _Ceaseless will endeavor, > From half measures strive to wean us, Wholly, fairly well demean us, g Resting, flagging, naver. —Goethe (Bowring, tr.) HUMOR OF THE DAY Moses had set his place on fire, and whilst the firemen were busily playing on the flames he walked up and down and cried: “I vish I vas dead. I vish I vas dead.” Just then a brick fel} down and struck him on the head. He looked up and shook his fist at one of the firemen whom he thought had alm- ed the missile. “You blithering idiot,” he cried, angrily, “can't you take a joke?” Scene, A Rallway Carrlage: 0ld Lady (to young lad who persists in puffing a cigarette)—Don’'t you know it’s wrong to smoke, my boy? Boy— Oh, I smoke for my health. Old Lady —But you never heard of anything cured by smoking. Boy—Oh, yes, [ have. That's the way they cure pigs, 0ld Lady-——Smoke on then, there’s soma hope for you yet. A cyclist was riding through a town at a rapld rate when he was stopped by a policeman who asked for his nam and address. The cyclist presented hisg card and rode on. The vigilant police« man chuckled at the fine catch he had made, but hig dismay may be imag- ined when on looking at the card he read: o U. R. Requested 2 Mind Your Own Business. There had been a collision betweenl a cart and an automobile. The police- man was taking coplous notes regard« ing the accident. “Mammie,” sald a small boy on the outskirts of the crowd, “why does the policeman al- ways lick the end of his pencil before writing?” ‘“To make the case look as black as possible, I suppose,” answered his mother, as she helped the child into the tramcar. A certain minister whose son is an undergraduate at one of the larger colleges has frequent occasion to re- monstrate with the boy on his ex< travagance. In a recent letter he sent a check for £10, but accompanied It with admonitions to lead a more economical life. “My son,” he wrote, “your studies are costing me a ‘ooxi deal.” To which the son replied cheer+ fully: “I know it, father, and I don’t study very hard, either.” The judge was one of those peace< loving men who hate to see their fel« lowmen get tangled up in long legal wrangles. “Don’t you think,” he asked, after he had heard counsel's opening statement, “that this is a case that could be settled out of court?” “Can't be done, your lordship,” replied the “I thought of that, but the blighter won’t fight.” Two Jews, father and son, went for a stroll one sweltering day in the mid- dle of summer. As they passed a vendor of ice cream the boy turned to his father. “I vish you'd buy me some ice cream, fader,” he sald longingly, “I do feel hot”” The father gazed at him a few seconds in mild surprise, then he exclaimed: “No, no, Ikey, my poy, but I'll tell you vot I'll do. Tl tell you some ghost stories vot'll make your blood run cold.” In the courthouse an Irishman stood charged with stealing a watch from a fellow citizen. He stoutly denied the impeachment and brought a Eounter accusation against his accuser for as« sault and battery committed with a frying pan. The judge was inclined to take a common sense view of the case and regarding the prisoner said: “Why did you allow the prosecutor, who is a smaller man than yourself, to assault you without resistance? Had you nothing in your hand to de- fend yourself with?’ “Bedad, your honor,” sald Pat, “I had his watch, but what was that against a frying pan?”’ THE KALEIDOSCOPE Eges for private retail trade should be graded nicely and none used ex« cept those strictly fresh. The hens' boxes may be covere! with a hinged lid to facilitate the gath< ering of eggs, but this must be sloping to prevent the hens from standing on it. Keep an expense account with thd poultry this winter if you are not do« ing it the year around. A poultry rec< ord usually terminates in a surnrise party. Celery that is banked with earth wil} keep until December without injuryq that to be trenched should now b put away before the frost has injure the tops. All the cornstalks, whether husked - or not, should be barned by the mid dle of the month.
