City BIG POMPEII SHOW BEING ADVERTISED fEight Automobile Loads of Boosters to Canvass Surrounding Towns. ! Eight automobiles loaded with advertising matter for "The Last Days of Pompeii" left Richmond this mornling to visit all the surrounding towns in .this section of the state to boost I the big production, the like of which ihas never been witnessed in Richimond or vicinity before. Every town within a radius of fifty miles will be visited and posters describing the wonderful pyrotechnical display will be found in every country store window. The production will be given here August 1, 2 and 3, and is to be under the auspices of the Richmond Commercial Club. "The Last Days of Pompeii" to be presented here will be in every respect the same as when produced in Chicago and New York. One of the features of the attraction which will be here next week will be the man with the oddest job in the world. He is a "Smoke from Smokerville, and never had a bit of tobacco between his lips. When you attend the ''Last Days of Pompeii" keep your eye on the top of the mountain. The demonstration from that altitude is of the remarkable parts of the big spectacle. The Pain management carirles a man who does nothing except jto "smoke" "Vesuvius." He is an artilst in his line. His business is to I cause a thin spire of smoke to issue I from the crater as the spectacle beigins. As the pantomimic drama advances i in interest it is his well-salaried duty jto cause the volume of smoke to inI crease from a spiral to a bigger showjing, and as the various scenes of the I play are hurried along he guides his I actions by the scenes on the stage, jmany feet below, and "smokes up." jHis ability is apparent to all, as Vejsuvius is soon smoking at a rate that ! would defy all the smoke consumers !in the world, but the "Pompeiians" far I below are too engrossed in their holiday and festivities to pay any attention to the big mountain, which just i before the eruption is throwing smoke jand flames hundreds of feet, into the 'air. . Those behind the scenes who may be watching the smoke-consumer at ithis period see him come down in a (hurry. .He slides down on a pole as do firemen, Mn obedience to a "hurry call," and when he has touched terra flrma he works the machinery and ; puts into operation the explosives that cause the wonderful "effects," as I though Vesuvius were in actual erupition and about to doff her head covering before proceeding with the tragedy of burying the city below out of sight. This man has a ticklish Job to perform, and his exhibition of skill in contributing volumes of smoke of a varying degree of thickness, color and activity is really a wonderful bit of work. It is said of him that he can do anything in the smoke line he : pleases, and has worked the Vesuvius racket in all the principal cities of the world. Tipping and Treating. There are two practices in this conntry that are heing Justly condemned. One Is tipping and the other treating. To be sure, we are not responsible for originating either. Away back in the days of Queen Elizabeth every coffee house had a box bearing the inscription, To Insure Promptness;" hence T. L P. Neither Is treating an innovation. Some of the Caesars, so says history, used to get huffy when their guests conld not see the bottom of the often enough. But both have got

They Cannot Be Separated.
A situation exists regarding the so-called new party which renders it somewhat difficult of description. It may be said of it that it is all things to all men. That is to say, the new party is one thing to the republican who still regards himself as a republican, but lacking an honestly named presidential candidate; and it is still another thing to the man who does not regard himself as a republican or as a democrat, but who desires a complete new instrument of political expression. Lafayette Courier. When Lincoln was nominated by the Republican convention there were thousands of men who did not know him or his record. They did know the principles of the party and that party presented a direct issue.
It happens imthe Progressive party, as the Lafayette Courier points out, that there are some men who call themselves "Roosevelt men" and -who regard themselves as Republicans progressive Republicans without a place to vote. An enquirer asks why they should support the Progressive ticket in its entirety if it comes t into the field. He asks whether the fact that a man is for Roosevelt for president makes him a member of the Progressive party. We see 'no reason why a man should engage in splitting hairs. In our opinion any man who is for Roosevelt is a thorough going Progressive. If he had been at Roosevelt delegate at Chicago would he not have refrained from voting in 'the convention tainted as it was with fraud? Would he not have followed the same course 'that Roosevelt pursued. Would'.he not have felt that his party was swept out of existence on stato issues by the i fraudulent convention at Indianapolis, on national issues at Chicago by 'the "vicious circle?" The "vicious circle" was none other than the announcement that no matter how many times the people might win that their votes would be overruled thrown out. Again.xwas he not in favor of the principles of the Progressives as proclaimed Vby Roosevelt throughout a life time? Those principles did not orlglnatevwlth Roosevelt. It is merely because Roosevelt, more than any other onefman reflects the Progressive views of more people that he is the leaderof the progressive movement in America.
What isthe differencebetween being a follower of Christ and being a Christian? Thereds no difference. The time has gone past when a man draws the hair line ofdogma tight inany field of human endeavor. Let us leave these reactionary questions of etiquette to the reactionary courts which stick at suchUechnicalities.
The truth1 of it is that the fight is for the supremacy of the many against the few this year. There is Vno instrument in Indiana by which the wishes of the people can be carriedSout. Both the old parties are as corrupt and boss-dominated as the other. If jyou have a personal choice between Taggart and Kealing there are other Ways of showing that personal regard beside fastening the machine rule la little tighter upon yourself and your fellow men.
Progressives this year will support the Progressive party. It is the only party with an issue which appeals to millions of Americans. There is a sharp line of demarcation between it and all other parties. It was bo with the Republican party in its beginning. The allegiance that men have given to it year in, year out, has been on account of the recollection of those principles the' principles of human liberty. Those principles, that name, and that 'honor' have been taken from those who supported that ticket. But the sameiissue is being presented this year. Theodore Roosevelt presents that issue. You cannot separate the two.
Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A NYE. GIRL JUSTICE. A gracious and unusual thing happened In New York city the other day. A body of pretty shopgirls went out on strike because their homely sisters were not given fair treatment by the foreman of the factory. Isn't that fine? Why suauld foremen and beads of departments give preference and show courtesy to pretty employees, reserving the hard tasks and the harsh words for those less favored by nature? It Is unfair. Why should the handsome girl have the advantage of the homely girl? It is a common saying that woman is a severe and heartless judge of her sister woman; that woman's inhumanity to woman makescountless millions mourn. is an exception. These good looking girls, toiling at their shop tasks under conditions III suited for bringing out the best and noblest qualities, show a commendable spirit of Justice and generosity. They have revolted, putting. in peril their living in behalf of their homely sisters. Now There must be something in the Industrial conditions where women are employed together that makes for sympathy and helpfulness. You are not likely to discover such a bond of common Inteivst and feeling in. ihe 9i .called., higher, circle? of so ' THIS DATE

ciety. The belle" OT-ihe ballroom Is not apt to manifest great consideration for the poor wallflower. Rivalry, selfishness and envy are rife. Why not expect to find a like spirit In the factory? Yet here generous girls I Here are these New York shopgirls giving an exhibition which shows that the feminine sex Is capable of the largest sense of justice the Impersonal sense. Putting aside their natural desire to retain their jobs, they are quick to see and resent a wrong inflicted upon their fellow toilers. Why fenr the coming of women into business and politics? There is something In the transfer of woman to a wider sphere that develops in her 8 larger view of things, a keener sense of relation and a larger tolerance. These brave girls have put on record a sacrificial sense of honor that has not always been recognized in wotsan's dealing with her sister woman.

FACE DISFIGURED BARBER'S ITCH CAUSES SCARS TREAT IT PROMPTLY.
Try this Remedy at Our Risk. When little yellowish pimples or watery blisters form on the hairy portions of the face and body, it is a sign of barber's itch, which is very contagious and if allowed to become chronic, is painful and produces permanent scars. This disease is caused by a tiny parasite, and when treated with Saxo Salve, our new skin remedy, which permeates and saturates the skin, these parasites Rre killed, and the skin made healthy again. Saxo Salve is wonderfully healing in all kinds of skin diseases and eruptions such as salr. rheum, tetter, eczema, ivy poisoning, etc., because it penetrates the skin and carries its purifying and healing ingredients to every portion of the diseased tissue. It is guaranteed to satisfy you perfectly we cheerfully give back your money if it does not. MOVING PICTURES. Why They Sometimes Shew Wheels Turning the Wrong Way. Every one mnst have noticed that in moving pictures the wheels of carriages or automobiles often seem to be turning backward Instead of forward. One puzzled person wrote to the Scientific American asking why, and this is that paper's answer: In taking a moving picture there are perhaps sixteen exposures made each second. If now the epokes of the wheel of a carriage move with a speed so that the Bpokes are in the same position at each exposure, that wheel will seem to stand still in the picture If the wheel is moving slower, then the spokes will be seen farther backward in the successive views, and the wheel will seem to turn backward, while it will seem to turn forward when the spokes move fa3t enough to occupy positions further forward In each exposure. It is a matter of the interruption for the exposure and the motion of the wheel. If there are sixteen exposures and the wheel turns through the space between two spokes in one-sixteenth of a second the wheel would be In the same position at each successive exposure and so would not seem to move at alL Gymnasium Training. Every person who has received gymnasium training Is aware of the fact that an exercise which calls for painful effort on the part of the beginner is often performed almost, without any conscious effort at all after a certain amount of training has been received Again, it Is perfectly well known that brute strength alone does not make a gymnast and that even a simple exercise may offer great difficulty to a muscular and well developed Individual who has not been trained in the gymnasium. The explanation for this is made In an article by Professor Dubois Reymond in Die Urns ha u. who points out that one of the essential functions of gymnasium work is not so much to build up muscle as to train nerves and nerve groups to work in proper unison and co-ordination.

The thorough success of our great ROOM WANTED SALE which closed Saturday night has been a distinct demonstration of the confidence our friends and patrons place in our advertising and business methods. The lively and sustained interest of the public throughout the entire sale, we believe, was the direct result of our "straightforward" advertising of genuine "worth while" bargains. The confidence and interest of our patrons has of course been very gratifying to us, but we wish to remind them that "bargains" are always to be found at our store, as well as most complete and high grade lines of merchandise. Just at this time we have broken lines of goods in every department which will still be on sale at "Room Wanted" prices and to which we invite your attention.
ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE 111 PLEA AGAINST PBOGBESSIVES NAMING A STATE TICKET
Progressive leaders in this city have received the following letter from the Indiana Anti-Saloon League, of which Timothy Nicholson of this city is president: This letter is being written with no intention of taking sides with either faction In the Roosevelt-Taft controversy which is now being waged throughout the nation. Neither is it the purpose to question the wisdom of the Roosevelt State Convention in Indianapolis, August 1. The Anti-Saloon League takes no part in any other issue than the temperance question or in those which directly affect or concern the temperance question. But since the launching of a separate state ticket and of separate legislative tickets throughout the state will mean that the prospects for securing the re-enactment of the County Option law next year will be badly injured, if not ruined, we hope that all who hold this cause of paramount importance will hear us gladly. What we desire to suggest to all county option Republicans is this: "Will it not be wise for the convention on August 1, to select a Rooisevelt electoral ticket anly and then adjourn to await the outcome of the regular Republican convention one week later to determine as to the wisdom of placing separate state and legislative tickets in the field?" Conceding, for the cake of argument the Justice of this third party movement, will It not be better for the movement itself to pursue a winning course, if properly recognized in the regular state convention both in platform and make-up of ticket, than to pursue the other course which will hopelessly divide the moral forces of the state and make almost absolutely sure the turning of Indiana over to the liquor interests for the next two years ? It seems to us that no one except "wet" Republicans can deliberately and wilfully pursue this latter course. But it will be objected, first, that this third party movement must extend to state and legislative tickets in order to get rid of certain corrupt bosses, and second, that this movement, through the promise of the initiative and referendum, will enable temperance people to solve the liquor problem just as well, as they can thereby petition for and by election, procure county option or even statewide prohibition. To which we reply: First, neither faction in the Republican party is free from corrupt bosses who, whatever they may pretend, are not bo overly anxious for the "rule of the people" and each faction has some bosses Just as corrupt as has the other faction. And as a rule such bosses are "wet." But we believe that the rank and file in each wing of the Republican party are, dry (as is true also in the Democratic party) and that these decent people can and should overthrow the bosses and unite for the overthrow of the greatest and most corrupt bos6 the liquor trust which ever has cursed the state. Second, lie
the Initiative and referendum cannot be given by statute; it can be given only by an amendment to our present Constitution which would take five years or by the next legislature authorizing the holding of a constitutional convention. Neither of these constitutional methods will be possible if the liquor interests are in control of the next legislature, for it is their purpose to keep authority as far from the people as possible. The only safe course is for county optionists of both factions to insist that there be no division of their forces on state and legislative tickets; that the Progressive party convention, on August 1, be not permitted to divide up these tickets which would only benefit the liquor Interests; and that the Republican convention declare In no uncertain language in favor of county option; for a constitutional convention in which all these vital questions can be thrashed out; and that their convention finally, give such recognition to the progressive clement on the ticket that, as a result, the necessity for separate state and county tickets will no longer exist. We have written the above with no purpose of trying to save a political party from destruction such is not the purpose of the Antl-8aloon League anywhere but because the liquor element has so entrenched itself in the organisation of another great political party, against the wish of its followers, that the only apparent hope for a crushing defeat to the liquor interests seems to lie in getting another great, united political organization to overcome this handicap by fighting the battles of the temperance cause. Youra very truly, E. S. Shumaker, State Superintendent.
