, At the Murray. Week of Oct. 27. "The Barrier.'

At the Gennett. Nov. 1. "Bought and Paid For." Not. 7. "Damaged Goods."

The Barrier.

"The Barrier." "The Barrier," -which the Francis Sayles players are presenting at the Murray theatre this week, is without doubt the best play of the entire season, and one that every theatre goer should see. The play is a gripping drama, pulsating with the simple pathos of the ice-clad denizens of the frozen north. Its plot and its characters are taken from Rex Beach's novel of the same name, and so popplar is the writer that it scarcely needs any further mention. The company this week is seen to good advantage, and Mr. Sayles has never played a better part during the last twentysix weeks than John Gale. The production is one of the best of the season.

"The Two Orphans." At the Muray next week the Francis Sayles players will offer the greatest melodrama ever written, "The Two Orphans," which was played for many years by Kate Claxton, and by many more of the noted actors and actresses of today. For this production Mr. Sayles will leave nothing undone to make at the greatest of the entire season. There will be more than a quarter of a hundred people on the stage, also six complete stage settings, which are now being designed by LeroyPitzinger, the new scenic artist of the company. So massive will be this production that three extra men have been engaged to assist Mr. Fitzinger in painting the scenery. No matter how many time you have seen this play, you will never have a chance to see It presented better than it will be next week by this popular stock company. "Damaged Goods." After the first performance of "Damaged Goods" in New York city by Richard Bennett and his co-worker, William Harris, the theatrical producer and one of the foremost factors in the amusement world, said in an interview to the press of New York: "The stage has been decried for years as an evil influence on society. Now there comes this splendid play produced by Richard Bennett with high and altruistic motives, universally acclaimed as something that will benefit mankind. I would gladly give $100,000 if this play could be presented in every city of America. It would be the richest legacy I could leave to the stage, and a monument that would endure in the hearts of men and in the healthy bodies of generations yet unborn." Bought and Paid For. During the run of "Bought and Paid For" at the Playhouse in New York, a number of men were gathered in the Lotos club smoking room when the subject involved in the Broadhurst play came up. In this play a rich railroad owner, who has married a hotel telephone operator, generously takes into his employ the shiftless husband of his wife's sister. The brother-in-law is visionary, but has the faith in the worth of his ideas. He is a juvenile Mulberry Sellers. For instance, he dreams of a plan to form a plumber's trust. Every one of his Ideas is so delightfully absurd and impractical that the rich relative encourages him, cheerfully raises his salary and constitutes hi ma sort of a court jester. All along. Jimmy Gilley (he name of the character'), goes on his way, sincerely believing that not only is he conscientiously earning his salary, but that he is being underpaid. Really, it is the man's honest belief in himself that prevents the character from displaying vanity that ordinarily would make unbearable cad. The decision reached, after the Lotos club debate, was that Mr. Broad

hurst has not overdrawn his type and !

that he has not created a fc.lse situation in presenting a man whose salary represented ten times his commercial value. "In the part of Jimmy Gilley,' said one of the debaters, "the author of 'Bought and Paid For' has merely typified the possibility of a man capitalizing personality. Because Jimmy Gilley was such a beautiful fool, his rich brother-in-law hired him for the amusement he unwittingly provided. Of course, Jimmy was a luxury. Only a wealthy man could have afforded him and what money he received he honestly earned. There are plenty of such cases in real life. You might find it paralleled for instance in the -Case of a certain young man, commercially of no importance whatever, who stumbled upon the job of entertaining Newport one season by his freakish antics. He married the richest widow to be found in the neighborhood. You don't hear much of him now because the widow put her foot down on his outre conduct, and took him abroad to lire." "Bought and Paid For." which ran

for over fifteen months in New York, ! six months in. Chicago and over six month in London, England, will be'the ' offering at the Gennett, Saturday afternoon and evening. j

To obtain a higher degree of efficiency on the farms of the country the Department of Agriculture through the office of farm management has been compiling statistics to determine what constitutes a day's work. Figures have been collected under all conditions of soil, and where all kinds of implements were used. The results obtained represent the amount of work the average man may reasonably bp expected to perform. By planning his work on this schedule, the office of farm management believes the farmer may work more systematically, with the expectation that it will be finished by a given time. Counting 9.f.5 hours to the working day a man driving a two horse team to a walking plow, cutting an eight inch furrow six inches deep should turn 1.69 acres. The acreage increases with the width of the plow, reaching 2.11 acres when the furrow is sixteen inches. The figures for a three horse team for the same width plows are 1.50 and 2.77 acres respectively. Two horses drawing an eight foot spike-tooth harrow, the investigators say, should cover 10.8 acres of freshly plowed land, while four horses to a sixteen foot harrow should cover 28.3 acres. With a disc harrow six feet wide on freshly plowed ground 159 farmers averaged 7.2 acres with two horses. With six horses and an eight foot implement they averaged 15.4 acres. Figures were also prepared showing the number of trips that could be expected for hauling produce stated distance, including the loading, hauling and unloading. In hauling small grain from a bin for a distance of one mile, the average was 4.51 trips a day, with 1.16 trips for a distance of ten miles. .. The average of 683 men hauling loose hay for one mile was 3.64 trips, and 1.09 trips for a haul of ten miles. Hauling corn from a crib 767 workmen averaged five trips for one mile and 1,17 for ten miles.

Moat Dangerous of Minor Ailments. Of the minor ailments a cold is by far the most dangerous, not in itself, but the serious diseases it so ofte'n leads to. Pneumonia and consumption always start with a cold. When you have a cold you are much more likely to contract the infectious diseases such as diphtheria, scarlet fever and whooping cough. Colds are easily cured, in fact, Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is famous for its cures of this most common ailment, and is pleasant and safe to take. Why take such desparate chances when so reliable and trustworthy a medicine may be obtained for a quarter. For sale by all dealers. (Advertisement)

MUNICIPAL ELECTION TO BE QUIET AFFAIR CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind.. Oct. 30. The municipal election here next Tuesday is expected to be a quiet affair. In only two of the offices is there any opposition. F. C. Mosbaugh is the unopposed candidate for for first ward trustee. Oscar Chase and C. W. Smith will contest in the second ward and in the third division, Joseph W. Moore and John E. Gray are rivals. The two holdover trustees are Will Austil and Ellis Filby. Felix W. Dirk will succeed himself as clerk and Richard Ressler will hold over as treasurer. M. L. Young, Carl Chapman and Patrick Sommers are in the race for marshal.

In an endeavor to increase the rice production of the Philippines the insular government is colonizing fertile but thinly inhabited valleys with natives taken from less fertile but more densely populated localities.

In less than nine years the real constructive wonder of the world has been created on the isthmus. The canal sost, despite the slides and countless obstacles unlooked for, will be withi nthe estimate of $375.itoo. The work is a year ahead of time. In prosecuting the work at Panama the greatest annoyance was the slides. Karth moved slowly down into the cuts on beds of clay deep down underneath. The extra excavation due to this alone material that had to be nioed that Ha snot counted in the original estimates would suffice to make a pyramid on a base from Chambers to Fulton streets and from the City Hall to West Broadway, with an apex higher than the Woolworth building. Concrete used in the locks and dams would bury the new Penusylsylvanla Terminal station under concrete, lapping over all the way around on all sides, and if lnpyramid form, rising to five times the height of that structure. Think of a canal fifty-five feet wide and ten feet deep. Such a cut would hold water enough for an inner waterway to float the pleasure yachts of the country. The excavation done at Panama would cut such a canal across the United States from Eastport, Maine, to the Pacific Ocean in Southern Oregon. A Wall Across Country. Tourists travel half around the world to see the Chinese Wall, marveling at its immensity. The earth moved at Panama the earth and rock would build such a wall across the United States, from New York to San Francisc, airline. The man who has spread a car load of loam in his yard will understand dimly what it means to say that it would require a train of flat cars 100,000 miles long to carry the excavated material at Panama. This train would reach five times around the globe. The number of men on the payroll rose to 45,000 in August, 1910. Of these 5,0000 were Americans and the others were Italian, Greek and Spanish laborers and colored laborers from Jamaica, the Barbadoses and other West Indian points. Perhaps the average size of the labor arrmy at Panama has been 35,000 men. It has been a constantly changing force, of necessity, though wages paid have been high. Wages for skilled labor were twice, or nearly twice, the wages paid in the United States. Boilermakers, for example, were paid 65 cents an hour with time and a half for over time, fifteen days leave of absence and thirty days' sick leave. Set Pace for World. What these men have done at the Isthmus is to set the pace for the world in construction work. In excavation records were made that have astounded the engineers of every country .

Ah average cart load is a cubic yard of earth. The French expended 080,000.000 in actual work on the Isthmus and left for the builder o fthe new canal 29.90.ooo cubic yards of excavation unsable in the new plan. The American car.al diggers at first aimed to reach l.Oi'O.oOO cubic yards a month. For more than two years the average monthly excavation has been more than :i.ooo.oo yards. In one month it reached 4.0ti2.ooo cubic yards. To conceive what the accomplishment is. even for an enaineer to picture it. it is necessary to consider that nine months out of the year at Panama is a rainy season. When unfavorable weather com pelled the work to sop, the organization achieved Its average speed. In the wet months, precisely as in the dry months. The aggregate excavation exceeded 212,445,766 cubic yards. Considering the wages paid, and the cost of living, the laborer's job at Panama was the best offered anywhere. The skilled loborer also could scarcely do better. The government looked upon these men as wards. The employe was provided with free quarters, and a married man with a modern house The house was furnished. The doctor responded in case of sickness and the government footed the bill. Even the druggist's charge for medicine was paid by Uncle Sam The ice man hammered with his tongs at the door and left a chunk that in the states would be a ten-cent

piece, and the work was at government expense. Light was furnished free and there was no charge for fuel and no w ater bill. In cases of srious illness the employe was given hospital care and free medical attendance and nursing. In his rest hours the man at work for the government in Panama had a social club to which he was eligible, and the government again furnished '.he club house, the bowlin alleys, the pool and billiard tables. Even the chit) superintendent and the club stewards were on the Federal paxroil Churches were proided by he government, and the preachers were pnid as a part of the government expense Children of the men employed ;n the canal work ha.i tree schools and free school supplies.

Modern and Scientific Methods Remove the Feeling of Horror For Ihe Grave TT N these days of virile, active life, when we are 1 I in health and the vigor of our being, every now and then comes over us persistently, and more and more forcibly, the thought of death and the grave. None of us can escape this last act. In this connection what thought, aside from the welfare of our souls, should be Uppermost in our minds? Is it not concern for the method, manner and security in which we and our loved ones will be laid away in the last, long, dreamless sleep? How hard it seems when the grave is open and unprotected, to think of the frail casket, the decaying box and the clods of dirt. How cold, how almost cruel. These are the thoughts you and we have in life. There's a war to soften, to ameliorate, to avoid all tiiesa heartbreaking conditions. Perhaps one of the greatest advances in modern times that permits the whole mass of people to bury their dead with a full knowledge of the dear ones lying in absolute security, protected against moisture, rust, burglary or vermin is evidenced in the MODERN grave vault. Most of us, anxious to provide the best, must five heed to the question of economy, and extravagance is fast losing its hold in the burial ceremony. Purity Metal Grave Vaults Manufactured by THE NATIONAL GRAVE VAULT CO., GALION, OHIO Guaranteed by them for fifty years, are non-corrosive, made from rust-proof metal, rolled especially from special-analysis bars. This metal contains an alloy which permits the National Grave Vault Company to make such a remarkably strong guarantee that a purchaser is at once assured, and feels secure that at last the correct principle in economical and effective grave vaults had been found and proven. You can have Purity Metal Vaults demonstrated to you by calling at the parlors of Doan & Klute, Undertakers. Purity Metal Vaults are handsomely designed, strongly built and provided with a locking and sealing device, known as the "fulcrum leverage" producing a sealing pressure of over 50,000 pounds. This is a serious question that should interest you NOW. Whether we will or no. we should decide while we are alive and in health. We should know, should investigate and arrange for the inevitable.
