"I was agreeably disappointed on our
Visit to the county hospital Thursday," said
County Commissioner tire. "Chairman
Trainor of the hospital committee certainly
haa thing admirably ytematlsed and in
excellent shape at this big county Institu
tion. Everything I done In good order,
from the business standpoint, and Superin
tendent Mums ugh has the place clean and
well kept,
"I had heard considerable of a derogatory
nature about aom of the rooms. They are
not fitted with oak panel doors and the
oeillng-s are not eight or ten feet high, but
they are clean and more comfortable rooms
than lots of self-supporting citizen are
living In. The rooms with which fault ha
been found in the publlo prints are occu
pied by old people, who will not let m fresh
air, but they do not seem to .suffer any
very bad result from the scheme of ven
tilation that suits their notions. I saw old
women out there, as well a men, who
appear as contented as many others in this
city who are not county - charges. Alto
gether, I think the county hospital Is In
such shape that It reflects great credit on
Mr. Trainor," ...
Tralaar Keeps All Iteiaa.
Commissioner Trainor, luce he has bad
supervision of the county hospital, haa kept
an Itemised record, in what he calls "my
little book," of all supplies received and
consumed, at well as all other Items of
hospital cost. This book . Is mad up
monthly from the report of the superin
tendent and gives figures on every Item of
cost. It shows the average expense per
capita Is just about 110 per month, or $120
a year. On their visit the commissioners
figured that the Inmates are kept In com
fort and In plenty at an expense of St cents
a day, approximately. This Includes every
thing, light and fuel as well as the cost
of provisions, medicines and such things.
Mr. Trainor' book for 1905 shows on the
matter of live stock alone, taking In the
Item of milk from ten cows, - there has
been turned Into the county treasury a
surplus of 1320. In other years there was
a deficit In the stock Item ranging quite up
to $5X a year. At present, under the per
fected system In force, there Is absolutely
no chance for waste or extravagance.
Every 'separate account for the month
must show a level average, or good reason
niuat be shown for the increase.
Friday morning the county commissioners
made a trip through the offices In the court
house, beginning with the superintendent
and the county engineer in the basement
and winding up with the clerk of court
on the top floor. This afternoon the com
missioners are giving Interviews to the va
rious county officers with the .object of
finding 'out just tho number of clerks or
assistants they need to properly carry on
the business of their offices. The informa
tion gained In these Interviews will be used
as the basis for the allowance of help that
will be made for the ensuing year.

Every .
Mcce and Nephew
of Uncle Sam
should be deeply interested in what he has said about soda
crackers, because they are the one food with which all of
them are familiar.
- . Uncle Sam . has given out figures showing that sods
crackers are richer in nutriment and body-building elements,
properly proportioned, than any food made from flour.
This is saying much for common soda crackers, and
much more for Un6eda DlSCllIt, because they, are
soda crackers of the best quality. They are baked better
, more scientifically. They are packed better more cleanly.
The damp, dust and odor proof package retains all tne good
ness and nutriment of the wheat, all the freshness of the best
bakiug, all the purity of the cleanest bakeries.
Your Uncle Sam has shown what food he thinks best
for his people. His people have shown that they think
U need Q DfSCUlt the best of that food, nearly
400,000,000 packages having already been consumed.

"The Lily and tli Prince" Is a melodrama
of uncertain quality; It la frankness Itself
as regards the wheels by which It move,
yet at time It appears toliave In It some
thing of the element of a better order of
drama than It appears. It Is not well put
together, its dialogue being for the greater
part stilted and stiff, but despite these
manifest defects, its story Is one of such
interest and such Ingenuity is eaended In
the working out of Us transparent plot that
It holds attention to the end. Its story Is:
On the day of his daughter'a betrothal, a
Florentine noble is arrested and taken to
! Rome on a charge of treason. He and his
i two sons are locked In the fortress of Ban
Angelo. The daughter goes to Rome two
years later, after the death of her mother,
to seek out her father and finds her lover,
who is serving in the Roman army. He has
come under the favor of Lucreila Borgia,
and haa been mada a captain In th Papal
guards. He remains true to hi p'.lghted
troth, and Borgia aeeka to entrap the
maiden with the prince of Colonna, hoping
thus to win the lover, d'Orslnl. The girl
fathoms the plot, and I ent on a wild
goose chase to San Angelo. to be assassin
ated. Instead, she . wins her way'to th
dungeon, where the secret council Is In
session, and there denounces the traitor,
who la none other ' than the duke of
Ferrara, husband of Borgia. The father's
life and liberty Is regained, and the girl
and the lover are united.
The second and third acts allow Miss
Holland a fine chance of which she takes
the best advantage, Her scene with the
duchess of Ferrara are convincing, and he r
soon in the trial chamber la made Impres
sive by the genuine earnestness she put
Into her appeal. This would, it seems, be
more effective without the added effect
of a thoroughly out-of-place "spot light."
Mis Holland la too much of an artist to
require the aid of such a paltry artifice.
Her lighter scene are carried off with
much grace: '
Mr. Mlesen Is most at home of the men.
He makes Colonna quite an Ideal pleasure
loving Italian of the time. Mr. Clifford's
Oralni Is hardly the sort of a soldier that
even a roman(Jo girl would fall In love
with, much less a time-tried and fire-tested
woman of the Borgia stamp. Alice Holll
day's Sancla Is a good bit of acting, a
feather-brained, selfish woman of the world.
who would cheerfully aee a sister sacrificed
or- compromised, but who would taks no
chances herself. The rest of the company
do the little asked of them very well. The
staging of th piece la most elaborate, the
aettlnga being heavy and appropriate, and
the costumes beautiful, so that the pictures
are attractive In the extreme.
