THE NEW GRAND In addition to the 5-act Metro drama "The Wager," featuring Emily Stevens, the New Grand will present tonight Calligan's Colored Jubilee Minstrels, and Nashville students. For over thirty years the Nashville Students and jubilee minstrels have been touring the country. They have always been noted for clean performances, and have always presented a show that is different from the average minstrel performance. It is no exaggeration to assert that the name Nashville Students is a common houseword, to a big per cent of the American families. The name is clean and refreshing, the name signifies what they are—intelligent college boys. You will hear the old time darky songs sung as only a negro can sing them. This time they are headed by John Lee and Elliott, who is claimed to have made a mule laugh. The Morgan Bros. musical artists; Prof. Elmer Moore, the noted negro cornet soloist; Coy Herndon, the world's greatest hoop roller. This man can make a hoop do almost anything a child can do, they seem educated. When the curtin goes up on the hoop act, you see a miniature city, with mountains in the back ground. This is a real little city, with stores, such as you visit every day. You see the hoops going and coming, they go to different stores, some to the dry goods store, the bad ones to jail, some to dance halls and the little wee hoops go to the play ground and start running, making a complete circle around the stage. These hoops walk telephone wires, and to cap the climax, they walk on four ropes, jumping from one to the other, and returning to the place they started from. Come and see for yourself of exquisitely hand carved furniture is shown, but the utter lack of ornaments is noeworthy. Every detail of the times has been made a study, and even the horses' saddles and bridles are correct. The saddles are upholstered in brilliant shades of velvet and trimmed by silken braid, while tassled ropes form, in most cases, the bridles by which the fantastically dressed players manage their steeds. CALIFORNIA MOTOR OILS FORGING TO FRONT "The superiority of California lubricants is fast becoming recognized," says Geo. H. Gillom in the October issue of The Oil Age. "A few years since, 70% of the lubricating oils used in California were brought from the East, while no California oils were sent across the Rocky Mountains. Now 50% of the lubricants used on the Pacific coast is California product, and trainloads from California refineries are going East. "The consuming public is fast learning the splendid quality of so called California asphalt base lubricants." UNCLE SAM ENCROACHING ON OUR RIGHTS A nation wide movement was started Friday in the California legislature for a sweeping change in the system of imposing, collecting and distributing income and inheritance taxes. The purpose, as given in a joint resolution introduced in the senate by Frank Benson of San Jose and in the assembly by J. M. Argabrite of Ventura, is to check the encroachment by the federal government upon sources of revenue heretofore regarded as reserved exclusively to the gas ovens.

These hoops walk telephone wires, and to cap the climax, they walk on four ropes, jumping from one to the other, and returning to the place they started from. Come and see for yourself. Friday and Saturday of this week dainty little Ella Hall will appear in "Her Soul's Inspiration." According to the story Mary Weston was born with music in her feet. She danced to bed and danced to play, danced to work and danced to school—always she was dancing. Before her mother died Daddy Weston gave his promise that Mary's ambition to become a great dancer should be satisfied. In the few years that Daddy lived, after her mother had passed away, Mary's wish was gratified—for her father put her on the stage as star of her own company. But suddenly everything changed. Daddy Weston died and Mary was cheated out of happiness by a designing woman in Mary's company who put her own daughter where Mary rightfully belonged. The fight that Mary made against great adversity, makes one of the most interesting and entertaining photoplays ever screened. "Her Soul's Inspiration" is the title of the Bluebird made from Harris Anson's story, "Mary Keep Your Feet Still," and it will be an attraction with Ella Hall playing the role of Mary Weston, the girl who was born with music in her feet. The first reels of "Patria" the famous patriotic serial, will also be shown on these dates. The scenes of "An Enemy to the King," the Vitagraph Blue Ribbon Feature, starring the renowned E. H. Sothern and Edith Storey, which is the attraction at the New Grand on Sunday and Monday, January 28 and 29th are authentic in both exteriors and interiors. Director Frederic Thomson, who produced the masterpiece for the Vitagraph company, pays much attention to details, with the result that his backgrounds are without the smallest flaw.

The purpose, as given in a joint resolution introduced in the senate by Frank Benson of San Jose and in the assembly by J. M. Argabrite of Ventura, is to check the encroachment by the federal government upon sources of revenue heretofore regarded as reserved exclusively to the states. “This encroachment is felt particularly,” the resolution reads, “in the case of income and inheritance taxes both of which forms of taxes are in danger of being dried up as sources of state revenue. The resolution is based on recommendations by the California tax commission which suggests that the federal government should confine its jurisdiction to incomes in excess of $50,000 as to the income tax and to estates in excess of $5,000,000 as to the inheritance tax. Thus the tax on all incomes less than $50,000 and on all estates less than $5,000,000 would be left to the states.

W. P. Hunt of Arizona, who was repudiated at the polls last November, declines to surrender the office to his regularly elected successor, Thomas E. Campbell, republican. Although President Wilson carried the state by a very large majority, Governor Hunt was defeated on the face of the returns by a very narrow margin. Governor Hunt asked for a recount, which has not been completed. The attitude of Governor Hunt indicates that he is no credit to himself, his party, or to the commonwealth of Arizona, as any public official who does not believe in law enforcement is a dangerous individual. Governor Hunt is reported to have had armed men ready to hold the office against any “Fred’s case is peculiar I ever had responded to them and seemed to be beat for fully quit breathing.

The old village inn was built after much discussion on the part of the cast and the officials of the company, and it closely resembles a tavern in the days of old France during the war between the Catholics and the Hugenots. The wine garden with its grape arbor is shown on the side, and the building itself seems a series of picturesque dormer windows. Going inside the structure, the audience finds the floor covered with straw, while rough wooden tables and chairs are placed here and there. To one end of the room stands a long table where the retinue of the lords and ladies eat their meals. On the other end of the room is an immense fireplace. Before this fireplace hangs a large earth-en kettle wherein the various dishes are cooked. Bunches of herbs and onions hang about the walls, and the only lighting is obtained by tallow candles. The exterior of the castle, which stands on the river's bank, are most beautiful. The large stone tower with its long narrow windows rises toward the pale blue of the heavens, and the age-yellowed walls are almost entirely covered with vines. The rooms and corridors inside impress one by their vastness and emptiness. The rooms are as large as the average apartment of the day, with only a few chests and chairs placed here and there. The barren stone walls are decorated with rugs and priceless pieces of tapestry, but otherwise remain barren. Now and then a piece A shack at Villa Park which for several years has been occupied by Moon Fong, a Chinaman, was destroyed by fire Sunday night and the next morning the charred remains of Moon were found in the ruins. Sunday was the Chinese New Year and it is supposed Moon celebrated the occasion by getting drunk and accidentally set fire to the house. A tin box containing $600 was found where Moon had hidden it. The money was safe. NOTICE MR. VALENCIA GROWER—If you want to retire, and live on your interest, I will buy your full bearing grove, if you will sell on terms to suit.

Fred Rurrup, aged 12, the eldest son, was beyond medical aid when physicians arrived and died shortly afterward. Mr. and Mrs. Rurrup, their sons Clarence and Ray, and John Meacham, a border, were all overcome, but their lives were saved. At first it was supposed that a box of apples which arrived at 8:30 from a grocery store, and which appeared to be sprinkled with a crystalline powder was the poison-carrying vehicle, as all had partaken of them. In this belief samples of the powder and the dead boy's stomach were sent to Los Angeles for analysis. John Meacham, the boarder retired to his room early, leaving the members of the Rurrup family all sitting up. He was taken extremely ill, but shortly after retiring to his room heard...

A series of tests were conducted in a garage, in which one of the chemicals was considerably affected by the poisonous gases. The test led to the following conclusions: An automobile engine should not be operated in a small garage unless doors and windows are wide open. In the tests conducted, the air in the garage was rendered decidedly dangerous after the automobile engine had been running fifteen minutes. "The gas made by automobile engines in enclosed garages is known as carbon monoxide," said Director Van. H. Manning of the bureau. "It is extremely poisonous because it combines with the red coloring matter of the blood more readily than oxygen does and blood that is saturated with it cannot take up oxygen." The dangerous symptom of this carbon monoxide poisoning comes almost without warning and collapse in a garage general proves fatal, unless outside aid arrives very soon, because the running engine continues to generate carbon monoxide and continues to make the air more poisonous. In the tests, the chemists found dangerous amounts of carbon monoxide inside in the farthest part of the garage after twenty to thirty minutes running of the engine, while near the engine the air was extremely unsafe when the engine had run about fifteen minutes. The observer did not remain in the dangerous atmosphere except when taking samples of the gas and was not exposed to the poisonous air longer than three minutes on the whole. "Smarting and watering of the eyes due to the presence of other noxious products of combustion, were the first effect. After collecting the samples, the observer contracted a headache and about an hour later became dizzy, nauseated and very ill. This lasted for ten hours. The next day he had completely recovered." ARGENTINA FARMERS COMPETE We imported from Argentina during the first 11 months of 1916 nearly $104,000,000 worth of commodities, or five times our total imports from that country for the first 11 months of 1913, of which nine months was under the republican protective tariff law. During the first eleven months of 1913 our total trade with Argentina was $71,000,000, from which we realized a favorable trade balance of $29,000,000. For the same period, 1914, under the Underwood law, our total trade with this country was $79,000,000, and the balance of trade turned against us in the sum of $28,000,000; for the 1915 period, total trade $131,000,000; balance against us of $37,000,000; for the 1916 period, total trade $137,500,000 balance against us, $34,000,000.
