MORE PUBLICITY GIVEN AS REMEDY

Interstate V Commerce Commission Makes Report on Coal Roads. RECOMMENDATIONS MADE SUGGESTED THAT COMMON CAR- . RIERS BE EXCLUDED FROM OWNING MINES EXCEPT FOR THEIR OWN USE. Publisbrs' Freasl Washington. Jan. 25. The interstate commerce commission submitted to congress its first report on discrim inations and monopolies, authorized under the Tillman-Gillespie resolution of last March. The report deals with bituminous coal carried ea3t of the Ohio river, the roads involved being the Norfolk &. Western, Chesapeake & Ohio, Baltimore & Ohio, Pennsylvania, Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburg, Beech Creek division of the New York-Central & Hudson River, Pittsburg, Shawmut & Northern, Buffalo, Susquehanna & West Virginia Central and Western Maryland. The report says all these companies own, directly or by stock ownership in other companies, large interests in coal lands. As a result of its findings the commission makes the following recommendations: "That every common carrier engaged in the transportation of coal be required to make public the system of car distribution in effect on its rallvay and the several divisions thereof, showing how the equipment for coal service is divided between the several divisions of its road. "That where the capacity of the mines is the basis for the distribution of equipment, a fair, just and equitable rating ot tne mines be requireu. "That after reasonable time carriers engaged in interstate commerce be prohibited from using 'individual' or 'private' cars for handling coal traffic. "That carriers engaged in interstate commerce be forbidden after reasonable time to own or have Interest, directly or indirectly, in any operated coal properties, except such as are exclusively for their own fuel supply, and that ownership, either directly or indirectly, by officers or employes of common carriers of any coal properties or any of the stock of coal companies along the line of road by which they are employed, be forbidden." Some of the stock, in coal concerns acquired by the railroad men Is legitimate, says the report, but in any event its hoMing is unwise under the circumstances. In other instances stock is given to obtain favorable consideration from railroad officers and employes. The most flagrant offender in this respect, concludes the commisvion, is the. Pennsylvania, although on the Baltimore & Ohio the condition prevails to a certain extent. The report tells of railway and freight associations in the territory involved, the general object of which seemed to be rr.aintenance of certain coal and freifjit rates on all the roads involved. The . result of this agreeement between the roads, declares the report, has been practically to "abolish substantial competition between the carriers In coal for the territory in question." This condition is regarded as having brought about "discriminations, injustice and inequalities to Independent operators and has prevented persons who wished to engage in mining from doing so." Most of the conditions about which shippers complain, says the report, grow o" -f the want of publicity of dealinr tween the roads and shippers. If the business is conducted openly much favoritism would be averted and "wherever unjust suspicions were aroused the fact they were incorrfct would have readily appeared." It is declared by the commission that many inequalities and unjust methods are used in arriving at each mine's carac'ty.

NEWS OF THE THEATERS Theatrical Calendar. GENNETT. Wednesday, Jan. 30. Matinee and right, Primrose's Big Minstrels. Friday Night, Feb. 1. "Mrs. Tem ple's Telegram." Monday, Feb. 4. "The Man on the Box." PHILLIPS. Entire Week High class vaudeville. "Mrs. Temple's Telegram" Gennett. When a play is capable of provok ing an almost constant ripple of laughter, which at frequent and unexpected intervals breaks out Into uncontrollable guffaws that make the very rafters ring, there is but one verdict for the reporter on dramatic affairs to render, and that one is selfevident. Such a play in its- own peculiar field is great. That is just what "Mrs. Temple's Telegram will do at the Gennett next Friday night. There is. no call to go into history of this play and give its pedigree which might tend to injure it in the eyes of many people. It is only necessary to take it at its face value, and say that it is one of the cleverest farces that has been seen since the days of Charley Iloyt. It possesses a plot that in Itself appeals to one's sense of the ridiculous, and lines that sparkle with wit and humor. Vaudeville at the Phillips. To any one at all familiar with the names of vaudeville performers, the bill secured for next week at the New rhillips theater, will appear unusually attractive. In addition to the usual piano overture, motion pictures and illustrated songs, which are kept fully up to date, there will be comedy sketch by Lydell and Butterworth, singing and dancing by the Seymour Sisters, a clever one act playlette by Stevens and Keeley, and as the head line or feature attraction, the season's sensation, the famous Fords, undisputed king and queen of handcuffs, introducing Miss Dot Ford, the only lady handcuff expert In the world. Bring your own handcuffs, shackles, manacles, etc., and lock them on at the matinee Wednesday. Souvenirs will be given to the ladies. Amateur contest Friday evening. Two cash prizes given for the cleverest amateur. Usual double performance this evening. Bragdon Bros', orchestra will play overtures from 8 to 8:15 p. m. Primrose's Minstrels Gernett. George Primrose and liis all star minstrel company of comedians, to- i calists, dancers and musicians will be! the attraction at th Gennett. next Wednesday, matinee and night, presenting genuine black faced minstrelsy amid southern plantation surroundings. It was Mr. Prim-os-Vs complaint for several years past that real minstrelsy was receiving too little attention in the so-called minstrel entertainments. For that reason, when ho decided to exploit the renl thiDg last season, his earnest and fondest desire was to have the biggest anl best black faced min?trel organisation ever organized. The resu?c has satisfied his most sangaIn-3 anticipations, and he again prom'se-i theatre-sroers a minstrel performance that shf-11 be replete with clever comedy, brilliant music, surprising nnd entertaining specialties, and best of all. the old-,' time minstrel sonss and darkev char-i aeters.

light on the Old Plantation." The first scene is a representation of a log cabin "Way Down South in Dixie," while overhead droop the protecting shadows of a spreading oak. The other scene presents a fascinating view of a cotton field in bloom with hill and river environment, the whole reviewed at sunrise, sunset and nightfall, while the radiance of the room bathes them in a soft, tranquil light. It is in this moonlight scene that Mr. Primrose will give a soft shoe dance, assisted by, the Cotton Blossom coon3. He will also invite attention tq his Silver Shower clog, assisted by a score or more of wooden shoe dancers. "The Man on the Box" Gennett. One of the really notable theatrical events of the year takes place at the Gennett Monday night, February 4, when Walter N. Lawrence presents Henry E. Dixey in a dramatization of Harold MacGrath's famous novel, "The Man on the Box." Thousands of appreciative theatre goers have testified since Mr. Dixey left the Madison Square and Lyric theatres, where he ran with this play for 204 nights, that Mr. Lawrence has sent entour, without exception in any way, "The Man on the Box" as seen in New York. To any one who has ever seen "Mrs. Temple's Telegram" or "The Prince Chap" Mr. Lawrence's other productions en tour it is only necessary to say that "The Man on the Box" is quite up to their standard4 if indeed, it is not a little better. For twenty-one years Mr. Dixey has been known as America's most grace, ful, finished and handsome light comedian, and he does not look a day older today than he did when he produced "Adonis" and played it for three entire years at the Bijou theatre. New York. "The Man on the Box." Mr. Dixey says, is a worthy successor to that other great play and from the success with which it is met. It seems destined to be as financially successful and as long lived as the other. Memory of Mrs. Tanner. Publishers' PressJ Washin,,-., j. Zo. The house committee on military affairs decided to make a favorable report on a bill permitting wives of enlisted men to be buried in the same graves with their husbands in national cemeteries. This measure was strongly urged tor several years by Mr3. Tanner, wife of "Corporal" Tanner. Mrs. Tanner was killed in an automobile accident last summer. Since her death "Corporal" Tanner has worked for the measure. Automatic Divorce. Paris, Jan. 25.

Humor on? Philosophy By DUNCAN M. SMITH

A EUSYBODY. The busy little microbe Is at it all the time. And all his cousins and his aunts Are parties to the crime. He longs to be in mischief. Or, to be more exact. Ke strives to let us notice How dreadful he can act. When there Is any biting That really must be done lie's always Johnny-on-the-spot To revel In the fun. The infant and the ancient. The matron or the maid, Are all of them alike to him Vhen working at his trade. It singles out its victims Haphazard as they come, Though if it were discerning It well might shy at some. But. no, it picks the nearest And leaves on him a scar, For all coons look alike to It, No matter who they are. It picks a perfect stranger And saunters down his neck And tries his health to shatter And leave the man a wreck. It wiggles through his system And leaves behind a trail The naughty little microbe; It ought to be in jail. Locating the Trouble. A professor who gathers statistics for the agricultural department with one hand and evolves theories from them with the other has announced that it is not the high price of things that causes distress, but the fact that the common people will be satisfied with nothing short of the best to take home to their loved ones. That 13 an encouraging sign. When the man who works hard for $1.73 a day Insists on bringing home a sealskin sack and a porterhouse steak in the same night we may assume that the world is growing better if not wiser. , It might not be considered good business Judgment for the boy who earns $G a week to purchase an automobile, but still, you know, boys will be boys, and perhaps he could get as much fun out of that as anything else for which he might spend his money. We believe the professor is on the wrong track. The best Is none too good for the man who can get it. Go Loaded. it!&! S Swt. Put away your hammer. Shelve its feeble shock; Get an ax or mallet When you want to knock. Mercenary. - "What kind of a complexion do you prefer, Bobby?" "Nature's own. What do you like?" "Oh, any old kind just so it is gilt edged." Not Breakfast Food. He only lived for art alone And culture. Can you beat It? But fate was most unkind to him. For, oh, he couldn't eat it! PERT PARAGRAPHS. There are plenty of men who con elder themselves brilliant and original I Just because they insist on having their own way.

' People who swear aren't half so apt to plot deviltry as people who want to and don't. We all like to direct and advise our friends, but as for us being meddlersmercy!

THE I.LUIbLES. TTh- a little babe I coveted my mother's strand of beads; ; Mr mouth would fairly water when I spied n. I Imagined they'd comply with all my gustatory needs Could I only place my silly self outside era. But my mother, wisely patient with her foolish little tot. Would chide me, in her motherhood discreet. And ir.form me that delectable those beads -were surely not "They're pretty, but they aren't for folk to eat." In my later youth I ued to se the rose cheeked maidens pass Along tiie crowded thoroughfares .so gayly. I adored those girls in bunches simply loved them as a class And chose a brand new fav'rtte. almost daily. As of oH my mouth would water when 1 gazed upon the bunch Of peach-like femininity petite. 1et my common sense reminded me they'd make a horrid lunch They're pretty, but they aren't for folks to eat. Now that I am firmly married to a cook school graduate Again that proposition doth, confront me. To toe sure, I'm never tempted with her beads to try my fate. Although I'm grown and know they couldn't stunt me, Tet at every meal she places on our nice installment table Borne magazine made pastry, fish or meat. I attack these phony victuals Just as gamely as I'm able They're pretty, but they aren't for folks o eat. Strickland W. Gilltlan In Judge.

Reverse. "I see Jenkins is on his fet again. "What's the matter? lias he been standing on his head?" A Cumulative Sentence. According to an eminent lawyer who practices before the supreme court of the United States, there is a custom in French jurisprudence that sanctions the consultation by a Judge in provincial courts with colleagues on the bench, called "assessors," when sentence is to be passed upon certain classes of ma lef actors. "What ought we to give this rascal, brother?" a Judge in the department of the Loire once asked the assessor on his right. "I should say three years." "What is your opinion, brother?" This to the assessor on the left. "I should give him four years." Whereupon the judge, assuming an air of great benevolence, said: "Prisoner, not desiring to Impose upon you a long and severe term of Imprisonment, as I should have done if left to myself. I bave consulted my learned brethren .and shall take their advice. Seven years." Harper's Weekly. History Revised.

Whose Say-so is Best? With nearly all medicines put up for sale through 'druggists one has to taka the maker's say-so alone as to their cura- . tive value.
