So much has been said and written
about the vivid realism of the pile-1riviug
scene in "a Nutmeg Match" that thers il
widespread curiosity to see just how
much in advance of the log-jam aud the
buzz-eaw this sensational piIe-drivsr really
IS. 1t is said to be SO thrilling and har-
rowing on the nerves of nervous people
that they have to be carried out ON
stretchers- II this be true. it is certainly
an extraordinary theatrical attraction.

shouldn't have real pile driver instead of
sham one. Realism is all right in its
place and il we are to "hold the mirror up
to nature" as the public now demands. it
is eminently right that the dramatist

and the stage mechanic. 1t is proper to

ANARCHY, WHAT IS IT?

harmony, order and peace. The an

time when men shall not infringe upon
the rights OF others, but viii unself-

This is the dream and aim o anarcDy.
But far from this as is night from day
is the popular understanding of the

and lawless traupling upon the rights
of others. To the popular eye the
word brings scenes of carnage and
slaughter. To the popular nose the
word conveys the smell of powder,
and the popular ear hears the noise
of bursting bombs and the agonized
shrieks of dying men, women and chill
dren.
At the present time mighty energies
are moving toward benefcent changes
the affairs OF men. The dream of
the peace-loying, not the bomb-throw-
ing anarchist, is nearer coming true
than ever before IN the old world his
