REVIEW OF WEEK. An important feature of the social calendar of the week just drawing to a close was the engagement of Mr. Carl Allison and Miss Lucile Turner which was announced Tuesday at a party given in the afternoon by the bride-elect. She entertained the older members of the Psi Iota Xi Borority at this time. Although it was election week and everyone was excited as to the outcome, nevertheless many delightful social events were enjoyed throughout the week by hostesses and guests. An all-day meeting of the Dorcas society was held Monday at the First English Lutheran church. An elegant dinner was served at mid-day. Tuesday evening Miss Edith Nicholson gave a dinner at her home in East Main street, for members of the Pedestrian club. After dinner the guests formed a box party at the Coliseum to hear the election returns. Wednesday there were no large parties, however a number of the clubs held meetings. Thursday afternoon Mrs. S. E. Smith gave an informal tea at her home in Easthaven, out of courtesy to her guests, Mrs. Winfield and Mrs. Roger, of Logansport, Indiana. The guests numbered thirty. Many other events in the way of open meetings made the week a most enjoyable one.

The Theaters

THE MURRAY. There is something good at the Murray. In fact, there are several very good things, of their peculiar sort, on the week-end bill. But this vaudeville house has had nothing better than Madame Dias in the way of singing, and Esmeralda so down on the cryptogram in bis violin number. Madame Dial is a Spanish opera singer with six operas In her repertoire among them "Faust" in which

she takes the role of Marguerite and displayes her training in her technical vocal accomplishment. Senor Esmeralda, her husband, is a Mexican by birth and long the concertmeister of a leading orchestra in his own country and his manipulation of his instrument also is indicative of his careful musicianship, as he plays with much smoothness, breadth and harmony of tone. These musicians content themselves

with presenting the best music in their best manner which is a very

good manner indeed and win the respect of their hearers by refusing to

descend to any of those well known

methods by which many vaudeville performers seek to "put it over." Madame Diaz has been in this country for but a year and appears ten weeks on this circuit. Both her husband and herself speak English very brokenly and understand it Imperfectly but their musicianship is convincing because unquestioned. F.. G. W.

Prof. Prescott, of the University of Michigan, explains why Royal Baking Powder adds healthful qualities to the food Testifying before the Pure Food Committee of Congress, the Professor stated that fruit acids were excellent articles of food and that of these cream of tartar, the acid of grapes, held rank with the highest both in itself and its effect in the process of leavening and baking. He regarded the results from cream of tartar baking powder as favorable to health. Scientists and hygienists are in accord with this opinion. Royal is the only Baking Powder made from Royal Crape Cream of Tartar.

Johnston, president of the Art Association for the local and state artists, who have exhibits at the gallery. Members of the Art Study class assisted in entertaining the guests. Prizes were awarded. An account of this phase of the exhibit will be found elsewhere in this edition. The affair was most enjoyable.

PRIMITIVE WAGONS. The Russian Bashkir Is the Oldest Type Still In Use. There is an interesting collection of wheeled vehicles in the National museum In Washington which was got together for the purpose of showing the development of conveyances for men and chattels from the most primitive times. One of the exhibits is a full sized carette or ox cart used by the Indians of Arizona and New Mexico as well as in some of the re mote parts of Spain. This cart was brought over by the early Spanish settlers. It has wheels about three aud a half feet in diameter, made of three pieces of timber fastened together with dowels of wood, the wheel being thick at the center to form the hub. Another primitive type of wagon known as the Red river cart aud used by the half breeds in Canada has five foot wheels, the wheels in this case having spokes, twelve in number. The native driver of this cart sits iu it with his feet higher than his hips, the shafts being higher than the bed of the wagon. There is also a reproduction of an Egyptian chariot in the collection, the wheels of which have twelve spokes, with slots in them near the bub so that a rope can be run through to hold the spokes firmly in place. What is thought to be the oldest type of vehicle still In use is the Russian bashkir or child's coach, with wheels made out of a solid slab of wood, having holes burned through the center for the axle.

HOW TO TREAT PIMPLES

ELKS' MINSTRELS. Another "capacity" house greeted

the amateur minstrels last evening and the performance went off much more smoothly than the evening before, the various principals being in j perfect form. Every appearance was ! overwhelmingly greeted and the re- j call executed on all. I

Among the funniest things in the entire affair were the local take-offB which included cracks at our noble mayor, the Arch, Richmond's local impresario, in whose house the mtnstrels were appearing, and other celebrated, personages and institutions. John Zwissler, Frank Braffett and Joe Pelta again repeated their former

triumphs and this was, altogether, one j

of tLe best minstrel shows the club has ever angeled. E. O.W.

CIPHER MESSAGES.

Rules That Will Help an Amateur to Read the Riddles. Writing in cipher, where letters or figures or characters, grotesque or otherwise, are used to form the words, while it may look formidable to the uninitiated is really not difficult to solve if one will tackle it with care , and patience. Tbe proper way to set about reading an unknown cipher is to find the letter or figure that occurs oftenest. This is sure to be "e," as "e" is by far the commonest letter in the language. jThe second commonest is "t," and if you find a three letter or three figure batch often of which the last is 'e and the first "t" the middle letter or figure is sure to stand for "h." Any letter or figure standing alone must, on clear reasoning, be "I"' or "o" or "a." The second commonest three lettei word in a message of any length is sure to be "and." which gives you three more letters for addition to the alphabet. Remembering that the commonest doubles are "ee." "oo" and "(T (la th order given) and the commonest twe letter words are "he," "by," "or," "as," "at" and "an" (in the order given), a person should be b!e to solve almost any cipher message.
