He continueihat "Minneapolis has a reason to bproud of its orchestra" and "the eastn cities have to look to their laurels."The Outlook writer says: "Time as when such music as the modern chestra gives could in the west be lard only as it was given by an orchera from the east. Inestimable serve was rendered to the country by mt Theodore Thomas did in his trav« with his orchestra. Now the easta cities have to look to their laurels. "For e:mple, there are few orchestras in fe world that can be ranked with thsMinneapolls orchestra. An orchestrsBuch as this is like an individual-* has a soul and body. Its soul is 1 musical qualities its body is Its fUncial support. Emil Oberhoffer, tl conductor of the Minneapolis symjony orchestra, is the creater of itsoul while a group of public spirited En and women of Minneapolis is the crrtor of its body. Minneapolis has a reson to be proud of its orchestra. "t belongs in the same class with theBoston symphony orchestra and the 'lomas orchestra of Chicago.''

Potash And Perl mutter
Soon Due Here
Ever since "Potash and Perlmutter" took New York by storm and began a record-breaking run at the Cohan theatre there, managers and playwrights have been trying to analyze this remarkable dramatic production in the hope of discovering just what literary ingredients brought about its remarkable success. "If such a play could do such an enormous, business, why couldn't another just like it do equally well?" they asked, but all the expert dissection in the world failed to reveal the divine spark of success and, like Humpty Dumpty, although one might easily enough take "Potash and Perlmutter" apart, "all the king's horses and all the king's men" couldn't put it together again to make a duplicate success. "Potash and Perlmutter" is unique. No play has ever before attained such immediate and enormous popularity, and the announcement that Manager A. H. Woods will present it at the Grand within a few weeks is sure to be welcomed by the theatregoers who have long awaited a visit from Mr. Montague Glass' famous characters.

THE WARRENS OF VIRGINIA
A LESSON IN THE SUFFERINGS OF WAR AT THE AMERICAN TODAY ONLY.
The L.aaky-Belasco production production of "The Warrens of Virginia," with Blanche Sweet in the stellar role, is a most extraordinary photodramatic lesson in the sufferings of wax. Though the battlefield scenes are filled with martial heroism and dash, one is forced to bear in mind at every moment the domestic tragedies of this strife of brother against brother. The picture shows, with special pathos, the sufferings of the southern families in the closing days of the war, when starvation stared the tattered army in the face and when even the women and children left at home did not have the bare necessities of life.
There is nothing false or melodramatic about "The Warrens of Virginia." It is the sad, solemn truth.
