An evening of hilarity - be ush er In at the Academy of Music next Tuesday. Lew Dockstader and his minstrel company make their appear ance. Dockstader scarcely needs an in troduction to this or any other com munity. He stands alone as a minstrel entertainer, and Is about the only man left who has a real minstrel show. There are other burnt cork organiza tions chasing the mighty dollar, but Poekstadeg and his associates are the only minstrel performers who get Into the first-class theatres. Dockstader has long since established himself as a pre-eminent entertainer. He has a true sense of humor, and a brand of sa tire that Is keen, but yet kindly. He Is always funny, and at times truly artis tic, but thoug-h his name appears In big letters on the billboard, he does not try to make himself the whole show, but has surrounded himself -with other comedians of reputation and genuine merit as fun makers. He has a corps of vocal soloists who are probably the best ballad singers to be obtained for this style of entertain ment. There are dancers galore, and an orchestra of twenty-one Instru ments. The entertainment this season has been declared In other cities to be th-J best that Dockstader has ever offered. It is enlivened by an unusual variety of features, quite unequaled by any musical programme heretofore presented. There Is al ways fun In plenty at a Dockstader show, and It is all presented with a quality of elegance and utter absence of anything coarse- MAX ROGERS.

BEPOBT W IMMIGRATION . t STRINGENT LAWS ARE NEEDED ioint Commission Appointed by Con gress to look Into Immigration Matters Submits a Brief Outline of Atie Work It Has Done Has Stud led Every Phase of the Immi gration Question and Finds That More Extensive Legislation Is Need ed to Handle the Problems Pres ent Laws lu Many Instances Are Being Evaded, permitting- ana in Given Special Attention to the Jap anese Question. Washington. March 1. Some facts showing the far-reaching character ""w'a ii - ...... - of the work of the Joint commission on immigration which was appointed bv Conn-ess on February JOth, 1907, were presented to Congress to-day through the publication of a pre liminary report by the commission. This report deals with practically every phase of the Immigration ques tion, including Oriental alien and pther excluded classes, peonage, charity among Immigrants, white slave traffic, conditions of steerage, anthropology, congestion in large cities, alien criminality, competition of Immigrants, school inquiries, ad ministration of the Immigration laws, distribution of Immigrants and other questions. No conclusions have been reported by the commission, but the scope of the work is shown In a manner which pressages extensve legislation in tho future. It is stated that if the plans of the commission are realized, the various llnea of work outside Wash ington will be completed in the early fall, probably by September 15th. The, entire investigation probably will be finished during the next fiscal year. The report was printed and circulated to-day to show the ne cessity for an appropriation of $250. 000 to carry on and complete the work. Thus far the expenses of the commission from April 1st. 1907, to February 27th, 1909. have been $344,798. There are at present 198 persons employed under the com mission. Of this number 82 are In Washington, 2 In New York, 2 in Ran Francisco, 92 are engaged In field work and 'JO In special lines of inquiry. UNLESIR AIII.E IMMIGRANTS. The commission says It is generally admitted by those acquainted with the subject that, notwithstanding the fact that the present law proposes to provide for the exclusion of every undesirable Immigrant, thousands of undeniably undesirable persons are admitted each year. It has been found that the law In theory, so far as Its exclusions are concerned. Is especially strong, but In effect. It la In some respects. weak and In effectual. ' The commission says It has discovered several sources of this weakness, and It Is Its purpose to find the othi-rs to recommend some effective remedies. One of the most Irrrportant features of tho work Is connected with evasions of the law resulting in the Importation of excluded classes. Not withstanding the expenditure of about $500,000 annually to enforce this law the commission finds that it does not prevent the coming of Chinese laborers In considerable numbers. An extensive In vestlgatlon Is being made into the question of the Importation and harboring of worren for Immoral purposes. The results show that many women are being constantly Imported under con ditions which amount to absolute slavery As a result of Its Inquiries and the evidence It has gathered, there has been a noteworthy attack upon this business which has resulted In a very marked decrease since tho commission began its work. It has been found that In numerous in stances persons afflicted with con tagious diseases, and even criminals of a dangerous type have been able to evade the immigration laws and come to this country under the pre tense of being seamen. The utmost Importance Is attached to the Inquiry being made Into the subject af alien criminality. The higher criminal courts of New York City are, at the request of the commission, keeping records In great detail of each per son convicted of crime, and It Is In tended that study of foreign-born criminals and criminals of the second generation will be made In that city. The Investigation, however. Is not confined to the larger cities, but is being carried Into smaller centres and Industrial communities In various parts of the country. The most extensive and important work undertaken by the commission is the general field Investigation Into the economic and social status of Immigrant In various sections of the country. The most important topics being covered are the race of employes In each occupation, years each race ihas been employed, hours of work, and discrimination for or against Immigrants In employment. wig'-s and housing. THE JAPANESE QUESTION. In taking up the congestion of Immigrants In large cities, the com mission Is observing communities in habited principally by members of one race, as to whether the clinging together of members of the same race handicaps them In their struggle for advancement and prevents their rapid assimilation and Americaniza tion. A careful Inquiry among wage earners who are forced to compete with Immigrant labor Is being made among workers In the trades and occupations In which Immigrants are largely employed. A special field investigation Is being conducted In selected localities In the South, and It wilt cover the senti ment of legislative bodies ss Indicated by legislation enacted affecting Im migration. Inducements and ob stacles to Immigration such as climate, character of soil, free or cheap land, amount, variety and regularity of work throughout the year, the wages paid and hours of employment will be shown. In formation Is being gathered also con cerning the employment of women and children, the prejudices against the races, the presence or scarcity of fellow-countrymen, church and school facilities, and a vast amount of other Information. The Investigation of Oriental Im migration has been confined thus far to the Rocky mountain and Pacific coast sections and special emphasis has, been placed upon the Inquiry concerning the Japanese. Without the census recently ordered In Cali fornia, the agents of the commission claim they have fairly accurate in formation concerning the numbers of Japanese In California, their distribu tion by counties and industrial dis tricts, their occupations and trades. In California' and - Washington, the report, when -made, will cover the presence of Japanese, Chinese and Hindus. " The school Is declared by the com mission to be the most potent In fluence In - promoting ' the assimila tion and Ajnericanixatlon of the Immigrant. ; ' , The commission expects to be able to report at an early date the effect of inter-marrlage between the native born and Immigrant and with one an other to determine whether the deleterious influence results, or whether beneficial influences will not be felt. SOLICITOR'S BILL KILLED ) (Continued (rem Pas One.) men present were called on and al most unanimously stated that the charter would receive substantial sup port, and that the people should be allowed to vote on it. The Mecklen burg delegation felt that it could not be unwise to leave this matter to the people and let them settle the ques tion as to whether or not they wished to elect their mayor, and also let them express their attitude on the other matters contained In the1 char ter. There were many Important matters In the proposed charter that the delegation did not feel had been iiuuj u ic usseu oy ine people 01 (.nor Hotte, one being that of requiring the fully discussed by the people of Char citizens to pay the assessment levied for water and sewerage Improve ments, this being a radical change from the former charter. DESIRABLE FEATURES. The charter of 107 was carefully considered when it was adopted, and the greatest objection that has been raised to it was the large number of persons and committees required to carry out Its provisions. 'The dele gation considered it wise to amend the c harter of 1907 by adding de sirable features about which there is but little controversy, viz., a city tax commissioner, increased Juris diction for the recorder, and also re ducing the entire number of com missioners to five, and to leave It to the people of Charlotte to say which charter they preferred after having the opportunity of considering . the, merits and demerits of both. As to the legislation relative to public service corporations. It Is the same in the proposed charter as In the pro posed amendment to the charter of 1 907. The Representatives from Mecklenburg did not care to leave this feature out of either the pro posed or the amended charter. This feature, the Representatives think, Is fair to the people of Charlotte, and one that will not work a hardship on the corporations. THE SENATE. The Senate convened at 10 o'clock. President N'ewland in the chair. Prayer by Senator Tllson. Senator Starbuck read a communica tion from Mr. George W. Connor, who was elec ted one of the trustees of the fcnlverslty of North Carolina Saturday, stating his Inability lo serve and asking that his name be withdrawn and some one else selected In his stead. Senator Starbuck moved the reconsideration of the vote by which Mr. Connor was elect ed and that the committee on trustees of the I'nlverslty be authorised to fill the vacancy. Tills motion prevailed. The Ashevilla police commission bill was made a sieclal order for final ac tion at 12:30 Tuesday. The bill by Senator Nlmocks to author ize the commissioners of the several counties to levy a special tax not ex ceeding 2 cents on the hundred dollars' property valuation, and 8 cents on the Ill for additional pensions for Confed erate veterans in lie respective counties, was laid before the Senute and passed becond reading, being a roll call bill. The House bill to Incorporate the Southern Assembly, Waynesvllle, with Bishop Atkins as one of the moving t pints, parsed Its readings and was or dered enrolled for ratification. The solicitors' salary bill came up for final passage putting the solicitors on salaries of tl'.JoO. It had passed second reading Saturday by a good majority. Senator Pharr renewed his amendment that no solicitor In the State shall re ceive as much as the maximum salary unless the fees of his State actually paid into the State Treasury aggregate mat amount. Also an amendment requiting the solicitors of tbe State to furnish to tho Attorney General on or before April 1st, 1910, a statement of the fees they shall have received for the fiscal year ending January 1st, 1910, and then scaling the salaries according to the ratio of fees. In this way he contended the so licitors would each receive salaries com mensurate with the services performed. Senator Barrlnger favored the original hill and opposed the Ray amendment. Senator Uriti thought the salary basis would facilitate the administration of the law and dignify tho office. The salary named In the bill he thought reasonable. Senator Long, of Iredell, advocated the bill. And then Senator Ormond closed the discussion with a speech In advocacy of the measure and thereafter called the previous question. The Senate tied on the first amendment by Senator Pharr ard President Ne .viand first voted aye and then noe thereby defeating the amendment. Then the bill passed final reading. 20 to VI. Several House bills passed final reading as follows: The Pharr freight rate resolution di recting the corporation commission to put Into effect within the State rates per ton per mile from North Carolina ports Inland rates that will destroy the dis crimination against North Carolina towns as compared with rates from potts of other States to the same tnland points. The till! to repeal the 190? Immigration act was set as a special order for o'clock this evening. It having a minority favorable report. The Barrlnger resolution for an elec tion on the removal of the capital from Raleigh to Greensboro that had Jestingly been reported favorably, from the com mittee on propositions and grievances had a further inning in the "Joke column" by being put through Its second reading over the protest of the Senator from Wake, who lodged objection to the final reading so that It went over to afford more fun another day. Bills passed final reading: To legalize primary elections In 6ura berland. H.

Representative Connor stated that reasons too painful and personal to re count made it impossible tor him to ao cept the election aa a trustee of the State University and asked that some one else be chosen In his stead. On motion of Representative Doughton Tuesday after noon was set for this election. A motion by Mr. Bowie that the rules be amended so that no member be allow ed to speak more than five minutes o more than once on tbe main question was adopted without discussion.

Observer Bureeau. 421 North Malnt St.. Salisbury. March 1. The most Interesting step In the In dustrial line In this city for the past year was the resumption of work on full time at the Southern's Spencer shops to-day when the entire force went on a 9-hour day, six days a week, and It is thought that a larxer force will be put on at an early day. This means an Increase of many thousands of dollars In the payroll and an increase In the amount of money pleed In circulation here. The busi ness Interests of this city have keenly felt the curtailment at these shnpe and the resumption of full working time will be a great benefit to them as well as .to the men employed. Contractor C. R. Propst goes to Al bemarle to-morroy with a force of men to begin the work of overhauling the Wlscassett Cotton Mill at that place, and to build an addition to the plant. The good roads sentiment In Rowan Is growing at a rapid rate. The board of county commissioners Is putting down macadam roads as fast as Is now possible, though requests are be ing made for others and at to-day's session of the board numerous peti tion were presented showing that tho farmers are anxious to co-operate with the authorities In extending this work and asking for good roads lo be put down In various sections which do not now have ihem. Mr. D. L. Arey has announced that after May 1st he will leave Salisbury and take up his residence In Baltl- I more, where he is interested on a ! large scale In the distillery business, J having been forced out of the busi ness here by the prohibition law. Mr Arey Is probably the largest real es- j tale holder In Rowan and Is one of i this city's leading citizens. In an nouncing his coming departure he closes a business card as follows: "I levo the Old North State, my mother soli, with great reluctance, but it hus been forced upon me apparently by the optional voice of the people.

Washington, March 1. President Roosevelt to-day gave a farewell luncheon at the White House to the members of the famous "tennis cab inet" and others who have been closely associated witrj him during the paat seven years. Aside from the distin guished government officials who have served s among the President's chief aids during his administration, and also as his companions at sports of different kinds, there were present men whom the President had made friends when he was roughing it In the West years ago and with whom he had gone on numerous hunting ex peditions. The occasion was memor able to those who Surrounded the President to-dav and the latter'a fare well words were not entirely free from notes of regret, If not sadness. The President In his remarks laid empha sis on the point that no administration had given its chief more loyal service, and he stated that he believed that the country had never had a more devoted set of public servants than those men through whom, he said, most of the work of his administration had been accomplished. The President In his remarks fol lowing the luncheon said: Gentlemen: You are here nomi nally aa members, or to meet the members, of the "Tennis Cabinet" that Is, as men with whom at tennis or hunting, or riding, or walking, or boxing, 1 have played, with whom I have been on the roundup, or In the mountains, or In the ranch country. But really, as you know, you are not here for that reason at all; you are here because you are the men. and because you represent the men with whom I have worked while I have been President. No administration has ever had finer or more loyal service than you have given, and I do not believe this c ountry has ever had an abler or more devoted set of public servants. It is through you and those like you that I have dune the major part of what has been accomplished under this administration. Moreover, In a vast number of cases the doing of the work Itself has been your only reward. The credit has come to me, to the chief of the administration. For exactly as men like to symbolize a battle by the name of the commander, so they like to symbolize an administration by tho man at the head, forgetting that tha Immense majority of his acts can be done only through others and that a really successful administration, suc cessful from the standpoint of ad vancing the honor and the Interests of the country, must be managed as ours has been. In a spirit of the most loyal association and partnership- There are many others like you whom I would have given much to bring here to day; but there simply wasn't room enough; and so I have brought you he-e, partly for your own sakes, but primarily as representing thousands of other workers; as representing alt gooii. fnlthful, fearless public serv ants, who strive their best to do what th" public need demands, and who. In the last Hnalysls. stand all on the same level, when Judged by that supreme test w hich takes Into chief account the uplrlt of the service rendered. Wheth er a man Is a Cabinet minister, a bu reau chief, a marshal, an Indian agent, a forester, a letter carrier, a member of the life-saving service, a clerk in a department, or a workman In a navy yard, or whether he holds on-; of a hundred other positions, makes not the slightest difference If he Puts his heart and his soul and his mind Into his work, and Is content to accept as is chief reward the satisfac tion, that comes from knowledge that th-5 work has been well done. So, while I greet you for yourselves. I greet you still more as symbolizing others; and in saying farewell to you I shall take aa symbolizing all of you one who leaves public life when I leave It; a man who made a real per sonal sacrifice when seven years ago he came here to take office at my re quest; a man who has stood ever since as the type of what a good public servant should be; a man who for the lait two years has been one of the moet useful Cabinet ministers who ever sat at the Cabinet table Jim Garfield.
