Sam Dalton, the eccentric local com edian was the top liner of the even ing's performance and his Jokes and locai hits were roundly ' applauded. The Juggling Parrots are also very good and their act show clever and systematic training. May Emeral, in a contortion .novelty act was a very clever performance, the first of Its kind seen at the theatre this season.

Gus Weinberg was the same old Gus, full kf witty sayings and good Jokes. The support given Mr. Welnburg was good especially that of the dainty little misB who took the part of "Willie." She played her part as well if not better than May White, who starred in the play here several years ago. The chor uses were good, both male and fe male, and the songs, although not the latest, were cleverly rendered and well received. . .

Washington, Dec. 6 (Special) One of the strangest facts observed in the forest fires in the north and west is the burning of the ground.! Falling leaves, bark and twigs and dying plant life gradually accummulate In the forests. The. rains and dense shade keeps the. mass damp. Mosses, in time, grow upon the surface of the decaying vegetation. The half rotten 1 accumulation settles, down and har dens. Trees spring up and take their roots in .the peaty substance. Then comes a season of drouth, and the dampness evaporates. A hunts man, woodman or farmer builds a fire or possible railroad engine drops sparks and a slow tancer of fire eats deep among the roots and smoulders for months. Should , a strong wind spring up, the trees already under mined by the Are, topple over and the roots throw off sparks. Flames burst out and with rapidity spread through out the forest. . V ' ' : A. forest fire . which occurred In Northern Minnesota a few weeks ago broke ort in many places at once, be cause many, of these subterranean fires wero in existence and only await ing for a wind which appeared on Oc tober 7. In this fire about 16,000 square mileB of timber burned. The Villages of Beaudotte, with a population of 1200 and Spooner, with 850, were wiped out of existence In an hour. Hundreds of "homesteaders" - who were carving their homes out of the forest sayed their HveB .only by low ering themselves Into deep wells. A. LATE HOXOB TO LIS COLS. Monument Wanted for Martyred Pres . ; ldent In Washington. Washington, Dec. 6 (Special1) The erection of a monument in this city in honor of Abraham Lincoln will be urged upon congress for approval by Senator Cullom. He believes that Lin coln has been too long neglected and that a memorial should be erected without further delay and regardless of expense. Whether the cost should be $2,00,000 or $3,000,000, Senator Cul lorn said should not be given consid eration in the selection of a suitable design. ' . -. -; - ; Cullom was a close friend of Lincoln and thus the personal element as well as his admiration for Lincoln's great ness enters into his desire to see the emancipator properly hoTrored. . Provision for the erection of memorial, he says, is a wish I cherish as a duty which I hope may be ful filled before I and my service. The project has been pending in congress for years but failure. of the statesmen to agree upon a site has prevented the legislation. - . ? Two statues of Lincoln now grace the streets of Washington. One shows him in, the act of stricking shackles from a slave and the other is a small statue of the war president standing on a high pillar of stonA The demand, however, Is for a grand memorial and Senator Cullom believes that condi tions are favorable for getting action action by congress this winter.
