CELEBRATION MUST BE SAFEJIIQ SANE Police Will Tighten Lid on Great National Holiday This Year. .

. Statistics forwarded, showing the effect of an "unsafe and Insane" celebration of the Fourth of July, have led the police to exercise greater care than heretofore in regard to clamping down the lid on a wholesale slaughtering on this date. Iast year many of the dealers in fireworks did not pay much attention to the city ordinances it is claimed, but following the publication of the city ordinance in yesterday's dailies, several dealers have appeared at the police station to ask regarding the goods they may sell for celebrating the Fourth. The dealers state they will willingly co-operate with the police in enforcing the "safe and sane" Fourth celebration. Last year was one of the most sanely celebrated Fourths in ten years, but fifty-seven being killed in the United States in celebrating the anniversary of our independence. Besides the killed there were 1,548 Injured, making a total of 1,603 victims of King Gunpowder. In the last nine years, statistics show that the enormous total of 1,719 lives have been needlessly sacrificed and 37,410 injured In the celebration of the Fourth, making a stupendous total of 39,129 mangled human forms in the United States.

An Irishman went into a barber shop, and the unsteady gait with which he approached the chair showed that he had been imbibing of the produce of the still. He wanted his hair cut, and while the barber was getting him ready went off into a sleep. His head kept bobbing from one side to the other, and at j length the barj ber in making a ! snip cut off the lower part of his ear. The barber gasped, then lumped about TIIE BAKBE3 GASPED. and howled, and a crowd of neighbors rushed in. Finally the demonstration became so great that it began to attract the attention of the man in the chair, and he opened one eye and said. "Wh-wh-afs the matter wid yez?" "Good Lord!" said the barber. "I've cut off the whole lower part of your ear." "Have ye? Ah, thin, go on wid yer business. It was too long anyhow!" An Oversight. "I trust you slept comfortably and had everything you needed," said Sandy Macpnerson's hostess one cold morning last winter. "Ay, weel enough," replied her guest, a venerable Scot, "but I dinna see the guid of yon bottle in the bed." "Why, wasn't the water hot?" the hostess asked in surprise. "Verra hot," responded Macpherson, "but ye forgot to put anything in it." Expecting Too Much. "A rather finicky old chap who was traveling off the beaten paths struck a somewhat shabby hotel, which was principally used by workmen from a nearby construction camp. He paid a dollar in advance for room and breakfast, the clerk remarking caustically that "a suit case isn't a guarantee that the bill Will be paid, especially when a guy has a room on the second floor." And just before midnight the indignant Mr. Smith piled down into the hotel office, almost dressed. "What's the matter? asked the sleepy clerk, shifting his pipe to the other corner. "Anything wrong?" "Wrong!" gasped Mn Smith, trembling. "Wrong! Confound your old dump, anyhow! I saw a pair of rats as big as hedgehogs fighting in the middle of my room." "Huh," said the clerk, closing his eyes and preparing to return to sleep.

The Theaters

"The Tenderfoot." The good impression made by the Lewis-Oliver Players in their first appearance in "Mother ,' and Son," was accentuated last evening when they, for the first time, put on "The Tenderfoot" In this play the cast was put through its theatrical paces in even better form than in ; the -. introductory one, since the former's ; characterizations afforded the members of the company an enlarged ' opportunity to display their versatility and show their dramatic acumen. The story of this play, made over from the novel of the same name, is more or less familiar to the public and concerns the personality of "Val Brandon," the "tenderfoot" and the situation in which he became involved through his association with a number of persons in a border town. Mr. Lewis, in his portrayal of this character, indicated the possession of a certain artistic restraint not always seen in the leading man of a theatrical organization of this class and a nice distinction in humour. If his impersonation was translated in musical terms he might be said to have more control and breadth in his lower and middle emotional and interpretative registers than in his upper. In other words his "big moments" were not the intended "big moments" of the play. x; His whimsicality, his lack of stagings, his appreciation of his role and his excellent taste in never going beyond the line of discrimination made him a fav.orlte with his audience. Miss Flora Frost as "Mrs. Doppelbinger," was one of the successes. Miss Frost , possessing "personality," and presence and easily dominating the scenes In which she figured. She has, in short, that invaluable attribute of thespian just named personality. A most fortunate possession In any art or profession. And for her admirable restraint in refraining from an exaggeration from which she possibly could have "raised" more "laughs" she is to be congratulated. Miss Mabel Frost, as "Paquita," sustained her superior order of accomplishment in the preceding play, taking a difficult role that of the SpanishMexican girl of Carmen-like tradition, who unmasques the villain with eclat and also confining it within the bounds of dramatic good taste. Edwin Wolcott, as "Burton Shackleford," gave a clever presentation of the insinuating lover who proves unworthy, and Jack Carrington was seen in one of the best impersonations of the evening, in "Lopez," the swaggering Mexican coward and cad. This, too, was admirable in its showing of knowledge of and feeling for the dramatic verities and was as good a bit of acting on any boards as has been seen in town the past season. Mr. Edward Williams in the double role of "Moondog," an Indian shot by "Dave Barnet," also taken by Mr. Williams, did some excellent histrionics, rnd Miss Marion Milton filled the part of th-e ingenue acceptably. Altogether this aggregation of stock players is far above the average of this phase of player-folk and that they meet with appreciation is shown by the large attendance and the applause which punctuates the intervals. E. G. W. The Lyric. With such picture plays as "The Coming of Columbus," which has just closed a two days' engagement at the Lyric, the moving-picture drama can certainly, be said to have "arrived." That this form of dramatic interpretation can be made, as its sponsors argue, not only entertaining but educational, is demonstrated in this record of the events which led up to and followed Columbus's discovery of the American continent. These films represent several years' time and enormous expense in preparation and are deserving of the highest commendation from every consideration. Scenically they are pictorially effective, the costumes, architecture, ships and other "theatric accessories," accurately reproducing those of the period of Columbus's activities, thus lending verisimilitude to the presentation and giving it atmosphere. The cast was also convincing, especially she who took the role of the Clean Your Water-Closet Bowls The Easiest Way No scrubbing or scouring or touching the bowt with the hand.

MY DOCTOR Mrs. Battle Cain or Carrsvtfls Thinks all the More of Her Doctor Since He Advised Her to Take Cardol

Carrsville, Ky. "My doctor, writes Mrs. Hattie Cain, "who advised me to take Cardui, for my troubles, is a mfghty fine doctor, and 1 say God bless Cardui and the people who make it. "Before. I took Cardui, I suffered with female troubles for sixteen years. I would have to send for a doctor every three month, and oh! how dreadfutly 1 suffered 1 "I would cramp and have convulsions and it looked like 1 would die. At last 1 took Cardui and oh! what a surprise! I found it was the medicine for me! "From the first bottle, I began to mend and now I am well, can do more work, can walk and go where I please and it don't hurt me, and I owe it all to Cardui." Cardui helps sick women back to health. It has been doing this for over 50 years. It is not a laxative, or a heart or kidney medicine it is a woman's medicine. If you are a woman, try it. N. B.

The "story" concerns the humiliation of Columbus at the hands of his enemies, and the actor taking this role admirably interpreted the spirit and purpose of this great explorer and adventurer his modesty, his piety, his conviction, his determination and his brave and humanitarian spirit in a manner unusual in pantomime. The pathos that attended the activities and imbued the personality of this great man and the tragedy of his career, is forced upon the spectator of this vizualization of the momentous epochs in his life, and awakens an appreciation of his achievements not possible through the reading of the. printed page. Herein lies the value of such presentations. The emphasizing of the exploits of the makers of our country and their animating sources. In no other way could the part that women have taken In the great events of the world's history be driven home with greater effect than through such mediums as this for never more vividly do you realize that the discovery of a great continent, whose peoples were to influence the destinies of the world, was directly due to the unselfishness and liberality of one woman the Queen of Spain than when viewing this pictorial record of its history. Nor are you unmindful of the encouragement and active participation of the Catholic church toward the same end. Altogether "The Coming of Columbus," is a remarkable picture play both educationally, pictorially and ethically. Especially apropos was its presentation here in view of the elaborate ceremonies that are to attend the unveiling of the memorial to Columbus erected by the Knights of Columbus which begin in Washington tomorrow.

HE BORROWED MONEY. And Yet He Had Mere Cash In Bank Than He Could Use. One morning last year I sat in the office of the head of a. very large business, one of the shrewdest men I know. His cashier came in and laid on Ms desk a report of the cash in the bank. The amount exceeded $400,000. 'That's a pretty big balance," said my friend to his clerk. "Ifs much more than we need in this business. But we have borrowed no money for several months, so I wish you would send to each of our banks a note for $100,000." When the clerk went out I expressed surprise at this action. For a man to borrow $200,000 when he had more money than he could use seemed to me a wasteful proceeding. "I do it," he said "to keep my credit alive. I want the banks accustomed to lending me money. I want them to regard a good line of credit as a regular thing with me. Some time I may need it. and when I do I want to have it ready and waiting. An established credit is a big asset, and the 'only way to get and keep it is to constantly employ it" I have thought of that action a good

many times since. I had always prided myself on not borrowing money. And I paid cash on the spot for everything that I bought I looked upon people who bought things on credit as rather poor financiers. But a few months ago I wanted some money a 6mall amount and for only a month. I went to a bank where I had kept a deposit for over fifteen years, and they asked me to deposit good bonds as collateral to the full amount of the loan. My friend could borrow by simply signing a note. I had to give ample security. Matson Hale In National Monthly. Twin Gods of War and Melody. How do statesmen get themselves into the frame of mind to declare war. According to a popular German story, the method in Bismarck's case in 1SU6 was one that would hardly be suspected. His subordinate Kcndell was an expert pianist and, as Sir Mountstuart Grant Duff puts it, "used, it is said, to fulfill toward bim the function which David fulfilled toward Saul." On one evening Bismarck was unusually moody, and Kendell surpassed himself at the piano. "Thank you, my dear Kendell." said Bismarck finally; "you have soothed me and done me so much good. My mind is made up; we shall declare war against Austria." Five Great Hunters. There were five great hunters of classic renown Acastos and Melenger. who took prominent parts in the famous Calydonian hunt of the wild boar; Actaeon, the huntsman who was transformed by Diana Into a stag as a punishment for intruding on the scene when the goddess was bathing; Adonis, beloved of Venus, who was killed by a wild boar while bunting; Orion, the great hunter, changed Into the constellation so conspicuous from November through the winter.

A SWORD OF HONOR.

It Was the Means ef Betraying Mar hal Ney to Death. A saber of honor -brought Marshal Ney to dishonor and death. When Napoleon entered Cairo on July 22, 1703. he was presented with three swords of honor richly inlaid with precious stones. He brought them back to Europe, and in 1S02 he gave one to Ney and another to Murat, keeping the third for himself. Ney received his at an imperial reception. The sword passed from one to another of those present, among whom was a young subaltern of the Auvergne regiment. When Napoleon escaped from Elbe Key left the' king and took sides with his former chief. After the allies entered Taris Ney made preparations to get out of the country, but his wife and a friend persuaded him that there was really no danger, and be decided to remain in France. Then came the order for bis arrest He fled to a castle in the possession of some friends and succeeded in reaching it without bis presence being known. One day, feeling tired, he threw himself on a couch, first taking off his ori ental sword, which be always wore out of affection for the emperor. Hearing voices, he sprang up and hurriedly left the room, forgetting his sword. A minute later a party of women and men entered the room, one of them being the young subaltern of the Auvergne regiment, now a coloneL He at once recognized the sword and. calling tn some gendarmes, proceeded to search the premises. t , Finding that he was discovered. Ney gave himself up quietly. On Dec. I. 1S15, the marshal, whose sobriquet was the Bravest of the Brave, the hero of a hundred battles, was shot. Scarcely two months after the owner of the second sword. Murat, had met bis fate in the same way. The Word London.' What is the derivation of the word "London?" The usually accepted one is the Celtic "Llyn-din. or lake city, referring to the historical fact that the city was built on a river that overflowed at full tide and half surrounded It Other philologists have derived it from "lawn" (full) and "dyn" (maul, others again from "lou" (a plain) and "duu" (a hill). But the derivation Lunden, or "grove city," seems more probable than most of these. The name occurs in wooded parts of Scandinavia to this day.
