CONGRESS DESIRING SWAMP RECLAMATION Body Which Meets At St. Louis, April 10, to Discuss Matter.

WANT FERTILE LANDS TTo Demand Clause in the Platforms of All Political Parties. (Palladium fppcial) CHICAGO, March 10. A call for the third annual convention of the National Drainage Congress at St. Iouis, April 10, 1912, marks the beginning of another vigorous, nation-wide campaign by that organization for the passage of the Newlands bill in the House of Representatives. The Senate already has passed the measure. The steps recommended by the Internal Waterways Commission for the prevention of the disastrous floods in the valleys of the Mississippi and other rivers together with the improvement of navigation and prevention of soil erosion are embodied in the biU, which the Drainage Congress twice has endorsed as a necessary preliminary to the reclamation of the 75,000,000 acres of fertile lands which now are not only idle but a menace to health as swamps scattered through nearly all the states of the Union, Immediate action will be demanded

by the Drainage Congress and as the the list of attractions at the Murray Democratic, Republican and Progres-! this week. This act is spoken of by sive parties in their national platforms ' those who have seen it, as being one declared in favor of the measures of j of the best musical acts playing vaudeBwamp reclamation which for many;ville dates and comes highly endorsed ' years have been discussed, reported i by managers of theaters where the act upon favorably by government engi-, has worked. Adair and Henney introneers and allowed to go undone partly j duce a comedy act that is very funny, for lack of a definite program such as i De Verne, Hayden and Newman, singthe Drainage Congress in its call sets j ers, comedians and pianologists, preforth. sent a high class entertainment that What Is Desired. never fails to please.

The protection of the public welfare, j by the drainage and reclamation of the 75.000.000 acres of swamn and ; overflowed lands in the United States and their utilization lor agricultural purposes. The protection, by drainage and reclamation, of the public health, which is constantly menaced by the existence of these swamps. The protection, by levee construction and other means of the people and their lives, homes and lands, form floods, storms and tides. The protection of the financial interests of the United States, the various states, and the individual land owners, by co-ooperation and an equable sharing of the expense of carrying out this plan, in proportion to the benefits received. The combined influence of all organization by drainage and irrigation

will be brought to bear by the Drain- j four beautiful acts of laughs and surage Congress to prevent further delays ; prises. Tne ptory itself was written and to give the measures conspicuous from an incident in real life. Thereimportance in the present or the next fore it is natural. "A Girl of the Un-

Congress Time Is Here. In connection with the call, Chairman Edmund T. Perkins of the executive committee in a statement said: "Now is the time when the people of the United States can bring to fruition and accomplishment the plans for meeting the needs of the country for ipreventlon of floods in the comprehensive way required, and for getting done those things, which everyone is ! convinced must and should be done. iThe Newlands will will need the active laid of every citizen, simply because jthe pressure of matters before Congress is so great that it must have , general recognition as of imperative moment, one which members should ,give personal and active aid. The call for the convention in St. j Louis states the purpose of the Drainage Congress to be that of urging the iPnnerress of the United States "to ;take immediate action to create a National I.rainage Commission with amjple powers and funds immediately available to put into effect the comprehensive national plan set forth above under the four heads." STRENGTH Without Overloading the Stomach. The business man. especially, needs food in the morning that will not ov.erload the stomach, but give mental 'Vigor for the day. Much depends on the start a man jgets each day, as to how he may exjpect to accomplish the work on hand. He can't he alert, with a heavy fried-meat-and-potatoes breakfast requiring :a lot of vital energy in digesting it. A Calif, business man tried to find isome food combination that would not overload the stomach in the morning, but that would produce energy. He writes: "For years I was unable to find a ,-Jbreakfast food that had nutrition enough to sustain a business man ,-without overloading his stomach, causing indigestion and kindred ailjmentB. "Being a very busy and also a very nervous man, I decided to give up fbreakfast altogether. But luckily I Avas Induced to try Grape-Nuts.

Girl," complete a bill that j will no doubt please all classes at the Murray this week. "A Girl of the Underworld" "A Girl of the Underworld," that comes to the Gennett, Wednesday, March 12, is a new idea in play writing, staging and constructing. Did you ever see a play that you knew how it would end before it was half through? You were disappointed. "A Girl of the Underworld" is never finished. You think of it over and over again. You laugh at its funny situations, you wonder at its daring theme, you have heard of these things, but you have never seen them before. "A Girl of the Underworld" is as logical as the air you breathe. Its common sense theme is prevailing throuehou derworld" is just such a play. There is a laugh a minute, with a touch of nature that is heart interest. The people of Richmond will find in this play something new and something novel. Murrette. The Crimson Cross, the much ad- . ... . vertised picture and said to be the best religious picture now being shown will be seen at the Murrette today. This picture is very appropriate for the lenten season and all should avail themselves of the opportunity of seeing this, the most wonderful of pictures, showing first the agony of Christ in the garden of Gethsemane, second, the scourging of Christ in the courtyard of Pilate's Palace, and the soldiers urged on by the angry mob. This picture is positively the best religious picture ever shown in Richmond. "The Rose Maid." Some idea of the success achieved by Werba and Luescher's latest opera, "The Rose Maid" which Alan Dale in the New York American declared to be prettier than its sister opera "The Spring Maid," may be obtained from the following which appeared the other day in the New York Evening Journal: "The Rose Maid," the pretty and tuneful operetta now at the Globe Theater, has scored that rarest of rare things in the summertime, a cumulative success. And if you have any doubts as to what that might be, go to the- Globe Theater and the crowds there every night will be an explanation. It is a not uncommon thing for a comic opera to be successful during the Spring and settle down for a summer run. but that is not what "The Rose Maid" has done. It made its Initial bow, and has been settling up weekly to ever increasing receipts that prove it is becoming more and more popular. There are a number of excellent reasons for this. Its music, by Bruno Granichstaedten, is of the catchy yet musicianly sort that is manufactured abroad while its dramatic story is en gaging and sensible enough to make you wonder why you are there hearing it Moreover those in the leading parts in the production are talented as actors, and there are a number of sensational voices doing justice to the music. "The Rose Maid" is distinctly a worth while entertainment. The Palace. , For today at the Palace, there is an interesting and most enjoyable program being presented which includes an American drama entitled, "High and Low," a Reliance sensation, "The Lure of the City," and two new comedies, "Tracked to Florida" and "Bobuo a oura Bump. tor tomorrow al ff epclal two reel Majsstlo fsatar tn-ji

Message a Reminder Thai New Era Should Be One of Industrial Peace BY HENRY CLEWS. ! their resources-demands which have NEW YORK. M RCH 10. "We snail i not yet reached their limit, if the pres-

restore, not destroy." These were the significant words of President Wilson in his inaugural address one of the most inspiring messages ever delivered by a Chief Magistrate of the United States. Mr. Wilson, of course, merely stated his personal aims as President. He did not expect to carry them to completion; nor did he undertake to tell us how that might be done. Their fulfillment will depend chiefly upon Congress, which is supposed to make laws for the public welfare and in obedience to public opinion: hence his ringing call upon "all honest men. all JauiULlU, ttll IU1 ill U-KJUKlIlg IUei.1 IU counsel and support him throughout his Administration Mr. Wilson has offered with few exceptions a splendid program conceived in an admirable spirit of ternperateness toleration and justice. His message was a welcome surprise to business men, who began to believe that prosecution for evils they could not help had degenerated into persecution for evils they could not even create. To all reasoning and fair-minded people the message was a reminder that the new era into which we have already entered ought to be an era of industrial peace and justice. Of course there was much that is purely idealistic in the message, but that was appropriate to the occasion, and we must not expect too much at once from the new Administration, because as yet- it is lacking in political and executive experience. Mr. Wilson has many very hostile elements against which to contend even in his own party; also a strong radical element which aims to upset and tear down rather than readjust or restore; although, as he himself intimates, pur economic system must be dealt with "step by step." It is assuring, therefore, to know that we have at the Nation's head a man of lofty purpose and strong will; quite capable of tak- j ing advice and using discretion in the development of progressive ideua. The stock market was agreeably surprised by the inaugural address, which created a decidedly better sentiment regarding values generally. Technically the market was in good position for a rally. Prices were very low having dropped 15 to 25 points during the last four months, and many good securities were selling upon an attractive investment basis. Not a few good railroad properties were selling at prices which would yield 6 per cent, and some of the better classes of industrials yield still high-1 er returns at current prices. Liquida- j tion, moreover, had thoroughly elimi nated weak spots, and no one pretends that there has been any overspeculation on the Xew York Stock Exchange for months past. The reports of current earnings have been encouraging, both railroads and industrials. Pennsylvania's annual rennrt

showed an increase of 17,100,000 in ! ent strained money situation in Gergross earnings, accompanied by an many, which is likely to be felt here

increase or $iu 400,000- m expenses, chiefly due to the rise in wages. Xew t j York Central issued its annual report. ( vhich showed an increase of $5.900.-' 000 in gross earnings, but an increase of $5,600,000 in expenses also largely ; due to wage increases. Railroad reports for February also show contin-: ued large traffic, although it must be noted that the gains in revenue are ; being almost entirely absorbed by ituur. mue or no increase accruing to ' stockholders. If any sense of justice is to prevail with the Interstate Com-1 merce Commission it is difficult to see how thev can nersistentlv rofnao permission to th niirr,o,i oH,ro, yd mission 10 m railroads to advance rates for these heavy demands upon titled "The Message in the Cocoanut" will be the headliner.

LOWMAN LECTURED AT EATON CHURCH (FallacUum Special) EATON, O., March 10.

ent attitude of laobr is taken into consideration That general business continues wel sustained is still proved by Clearing House returns,, which las week showed an increase of more than S oer cent over last year. There has been no slackening of consequence in the steel trade, the production of pig iron continuing at a record-breaking rate. In spots there has been a slightly lessened demand and consequent weakness, but the steel trade as a whole is satisfactory. The same is true of the textile industry. Tariff

I uncertainties have considerably hampered this line of trade, but coming i revision appears to have been pretty well discounted. The head of one of our largest distributing concerns j states that after another six months of adjustment profits will be free from unusual curtailment and net results ill i XJJXJl L iV'ilt. I IV ? C I v J . .S IITZ of our largest manufacturers most vitally affected by tariff changes, announces that he is prepared for any contingencies, and that his mills are entirely sold up for months to come at present prices. It may be taken j for granted, therefore, that the worst effects of a reduction in the tariff have already been forestalled, and in any event the injuries will be a mere trifle compared with the great mass of industry in the United States. The money market is the chief point of uncertainty, especially in view of the April settlements which are not far distant. Trade conditions at the West are generally sound and satisfactory. The unsettled conditions in Europe are sure to exert an important effect upon the local money market. While the Balkan war is practically over and the funds thus hoarded may soon be released, still the strain in international relations is by no means over and the mania for extravagant military and naval expenditures puts a tremendous strain upon the European money markets, which are already fully occupied fn taking care of unusual trade activity. In Great Britain busmess continues at the maximum, but in Germany, where credit is badly overstrained, there are signs of serious reaction indued by the financial strain fololwing the Balkan war. Germany, in fact, is threatened with a financial crisis, complicated with international friction and jealousies growing out of the war. A better understanding has bene established with England, but Russian and jrrencn relations with uermany are sustained, and the enormous sum asked for armaments threaten (inane ial stability. The staggering cost of war, however, should prove one of the j best safeguards of peace. As stated a week ago. the market ' was entitled to a fair rally, which it has since had. I now advise caution on the buying side owing to the pres more seriouslv as we annrmoh nonwr to our annual settlement period, April 1. The trade and credit situations in this country arp snnnri ThP nniitioaii situation is more hopeful, and we j shall have at least one month's re- i spite from political shocks, or until Congress reassembles for a special session. The crop situation is also favorable, as far as developed fhis season. On the other hand, the policy , of the new Administration towards big corporations is still a matter of uncertainty ; sd too is the dissolution of the Union-Southern Pacific system, n-twTi t,, o ; i- , u . 7 . will be oblieed to nass the critical approval of the new Administration.

OLD AGE DEFERRED

Echo From the Medico-Legal Society. A few generations back a man at 50 was considered old. gray-bearded, and waiting for death. Note the change today; at a meeting of the Medico-Legal society it was stated that a man of 50 ought to have forty good years ahead of his and, thus at ninety be in the fulness of maturity. What if you have seen sixty, or even seventy birthdays temperate habits, fresh air and exercise, with a simple diet and a sufficient amount of sleep v. ill guard your health. If perchance, your circulation is l.oor. if you become run down weak and no appetite nothing in the world will tone up those tired backsliding organs enrich the blood and create strength so quickly as our delicious cod liver and iron tonic Vinol.

Now and then one sees In the English papers advertisements announcing tbat So-and-so has a large stock of orange skins for sale. As a matter of recommendation as to quality the advertisement concludes with the statement that they are from such and such a music hall. There is a big business In secondhand orange skins, lemon peel, etc., on the other side of the Atlantic. Most of them are bought by makers of jams and marmalade. Th!s was brought out ivuen there was an investigation of the preserving industry in England. In certain portions of the theaters and music halls of London aud other large British cities the seats are not reserved. Admittance to the pit Is generally sixpence. Once a person leaves bis seat it is Immediately grabbed by some one else. In order to get a good seat one must come early. One grows hungry as the hours go by before the performance ends. The favorite sustenance of those who sit in these cheap seats is oranges. They consume them in large quantities and throw the skins on the floor. After each performance the skins are carefully gathered up and sold to dealers. New York Sun. The Way to Win.
