This interesting farce comedy will be played at the Hyperion on Friday and Satur. day by some of Daniel Frohman's best ar. lists. The play deals with . young couple thrown in all sorts of financial straits. They are light-hearted and gay people and they take the situation with a merry spirit. The devices to which they resort to keep up ap- pearances are always Imaginable, and in one in stance they are absolutely side splitting. This is the scene in which the sheriff devas- tates the flat on the very day when com pany is expected, and when ingenuity covers the dearth of furniture.

A scHoLAs TIC ISLAND.
The Island OF Chalk, It's Schools
and Hermits.

and Hermits.
An island almost entirely given up
to education is about the last thing one
would expect to find in the Levant;
nevertheless in the Sea of Marmora,
about ten miles from Constantinople
and within sight of its many minarets,
such an anomaly exists and hourishes
exceedingly. The island is called
''Challd'' by the Greeks, and Saddle
bags" by the Turks, from its resem-
blance to those Indispensable adjuncts
10 Eas tern travel when suspend ed
from the back OF II mule.
Chalk is one of the Princes Islands,
close to that unfortunate rock on
which Henry Bulwer wrecked his
diplomatic career. and this curious
development of educational stablish-
ments upon it is due to the fact tn at
these Princes Islands have for centu-
ries enjoyed comparative tranquility,
aud immunity from those political
catastrophes which have we'll nigh
ruined the rest OF Turkey. They have
in their sea-girt strength been a haven

gave them q species of home rule
which still exists; that is to say. they
govern themselves by municipal bodies
OF their own, they are exceedingly
lightly taxed, and they carry out their
own improvements after western
fashion which appears quite out OF
character in the Levant These favor
able circumstances have combined to
make Prinkipo. the largest Of the
group, the favorite retreat OF the mer-
chants of Constantinople. and hence a
perfect insular Babel, as may be judged
| from the fact that in fourteen adjoin-
ing villas fourteen different tongues
are spoken. These well-to-do men
have combined to make their island
comfortable in every way; they have
| just constructed a road eight miles
long. which goes the circuit OF their
island, and their villas have all the
modern improvements, from electric
bells to fashionable wall papers;
whereas Chalk, the second island in
point OF size, is entirely given up to
educ stion, and possesses two celebrated
institutions, namely, the commercial
and theological colleges, which pro.
vide for the young Greeks OF Constan-
tinople the best education that can be
| got in Turkey.

DIVORCES AND EXECUTIONS.
They Should Both Be Open to the
Interested Public.

They Should Both Be Open to the
Interested Public.
The rule requiring that all undefend-
ed suits for absolute divorce in Brook
lyn should be heard in open court was
adopted by the supreme court judges
in the Second judicial district five years
ago. A similar rule has been adopted
by the supreme judges in New York
The reform meets with general public
approval. The change is universally
recognized to be a change for the bet
ter. Whatever objections there may
be to the publication OF the de tails OF
such litigations, those cannot be 50
serious as is the liability TO fraud, co l.
fusion and imposition under the old
system OF secrecy.
1t is somewhat singular, however
that just as the people are coming to
the conclusion that divorces should be
public, their representatives in the
legislature have enacted law which
! requires that executions shall be
secret.
The same line OF reasoning which
led 70 the prohibition of publicity in
divorce trials Is that adopted as the
! justification for insisting that secrecy
shall surround the infliction of the
death penalty The good OF the public is
supposed TO be in view 1t is feared
that people will be injured in their
minds and morals by reading about
| executions; hence, now that the new
| electrical execution law has gone into
! effect, mo account of the details oil
any such execution, beyond the state.
ment Of the fact that such convict was
on the day in question duly executed
according TO law at the prison, shall
be published in any newspaper"
We do not say that execution by
electricity should be made any more
public than hanging has been hereto
fore; but we say that the reasons
against keeping secret the procedure
in divorce cases are OF trivial weight
compared with those against hiding
the administration Of the death penalty,
by forbidding the newspapers from
from telling just how it was inflicted
under the new law.
In this country there should be nc
secrecy in regard to the manner In
which any operation OF the govern
ment is conducted. New York Sun.
