they can see men and women and little children waiting in the cold

' Gaby Deslys is to make a" tour of Canada. Winona Winter is in vaudeville this season. Thomas Wise is to have the leading role in "The Silver Wedding." Paul Armstrong has completed an
other play, tailed "The Love Story of the Ages." It Is to be produced in Los Angeles. Alice Gale has been engaged for the cast of "The Master of the House." Walter Belasoo. a brother of David Belasco. intends to go into vaudeville. Arnold Daly has rejoined Mme. SimOne, who will revive "The Return to Jerusalem" shortly. "The Return of Peter Grimm will be seen for the first time in California this season, with David Warfield in his
great role, and the, original company under the direction tf Belasco. !- Haddon Chambers thinks that American playwrights will eventually take the lead in dramatic writing. It is rumored that George M. Cohan is considering retiring from the stage to a farm near Providence, R. I.

OH DEAR DELIGHT! The editor of the Valparaiso Vidette having been honored with a Christmas card from the editor of the LaPofte Argus-Bulletin proceeds to print: x Harry tt. Darling, editor of the
Argus-Bulletin, has sent to a number of friends a pretty Christmas card on which appears this word picture from his pen. The beauty of the thought and the choice diction will be appreciated by persons familiar with the ability of Mr. Darling to paint pictures wtih words: "May a hippy Christmas and a ' prosperous New Year, one rich in memories, the other fraught with bleesings, be yours to enjoy one a dream of yesternight, a time of unforgetable memories, with every tear a pearl, and every sight holding some hidden joy. Were I an artist, dipping my brush into, the cup of many colors, I would fill life with mirth and music, with love the nectar of delight. The rose would forever scatter Its petals and nature would have -no time to kiss the flowers to sleep. The bloom would be perpetual. With a fragrance that would whisper of eternity's night and resurrection's radiant morn. May your years be filled with the golden echoes of love's chamber and as Sweet scented as the tinted rose in tAe Master's garden."
No doubt this is the way Harry, who is a member of Governor Marshall's pardon board, feels about it when he proceeds to turn the gates at Michigan City ajar. A man feeling
like this is likely to do almost anything.

THE WIDOW'S TEARS.
A woman lecturer once said: 1 "There is ofttinies great complacency behind the widow's veil, because she has come into freedom out of slavery, into the right to handle and use money which she has helped earn, after having been a beggar at
her husband's door for a long period; and ofttimes her tears shed over his casket are tears of pity for self, for
the lost illusions of her honeymoon."
THE senate committee has barred the inquiry into the 1912 elections. Sure everything went democratic. The democrats are not anxious about inquiries any more. Why should they be? They have everything their own way.
