MUSIC AND DRAMA
CHARLES GARDNER.

The admirers of all that is pure and
refined in histrionic art, recognize Mr..
Charles A. Gardner's prominence in
the field of singing comedians. His ap-
pearance here Monday in new play,
entitled THE Prize Winner" should
call forth a representative audience. He
has in the part OF Carl Wagner" in
1.-THE Prize Winner" a most congenial
role. His portrayal evidences his prod

Rejoicing when the Lost was Found.
Where is my darling boy" were the
anxious words of Mrs. C. w. Darling
yesterday morning as she appealed TO
Secretary Hewey of the Fair associa-
ton.
The poor woman was almost heart
broken as she found the marks Of the
tiny steps leading in the direction of
the Little river. Oh, how the sad fate
of Harry Purdy came TO the anxious
mothers heart.
The tracks were small, but there
could be no mistake. They lead in the
direction of the river. and as the news
spread from house to house, willing
persons joined in the search. The sec
rotary of the fair was very busy man
but ne willingly laid aside all business
and began the search for the little
three-year old. Women smoothed
their hair, pulled out the puffs in their
big sleeves and Joined in the search
Boys on their way TO school, or on an
errand of Importance forgot all but
the anxiety of the mother, who now
realized that her darling boy had fallen
in the river, and probably at that very
time was cold in death. No one but a
mother can imagine the feelings of the
now thoroughly frightened woman.
Men, boys and women went 10 the
river and wandered along its banks
Some even ventured to wade into the
chilly water, but no trace of the child
could be found. The news of the miss
ing child spread and the hand of
Searchers grew. Where was he child?
was the question asked by all
Finally a party was sent back to
town to give the alarm Of the absence
of the child. They returned through
the Greiffenstein park and there they
found the child with a sack of salt try
ing to catch the little birds as they fit
from bush to bush. Some one had told
the child the theory of catching birds
by this method and the little fellow
mad started TO put the theory into prac-
tice.
No time was lost in returning the boy
TO his mother and the joy of the mother
in again being able to hold her darling
in her arms was full compensation to
all who had joined in that search. All
is well that ends well, and the mother
lost no time in removing the impression
from the mind of the child that birds
are not caught by putting salt on their
tails, and that he must not give mother
such a fright again.

Nearly Free Coinage.

Tuesday morning the senate finance
committee got down to almost free
coinage of silver basis, when it reported
favorably, on a vote OF to ), the fol-
lowing section of bill before it:
That from and after the passage of
this act the secretary Of the treasury is
hereby authorized and directed To re-
ceiye at any United States mint from
any citizen of the United states silver
bullion of standard fneness and coin
the same into silver dollars Of il2 II
grains each.
The seigniorage goes to the United
States and shall be the difference be-
tween the coinage value of the bullion
and the market value in New York on
the day of its deposit, and all the ex-
pense of coinage shall come from the
scIgniorage. The title of the bill as
presented to the senate by Mr. Jones,
Dem. Ark. reads as follows: "a bill
for the unrestricted coinage of silver"
While this bill may not pass, it is quite
sure that the Presidents single gold

Times Getting Easier.

Mr.. Flower, OF the Morning Leader,
thinks the times are getting better and
easier. He is both right and wrong.
With an assured gift of 81 500 from the
county. and a fiattering prospective gift
of s., 800 land dripping8 worth as much
more, from the state, the times for Mr..
Flower personally, are indeed growing
better and easier. These requests, if
made, as now seems more than likely,
will give Mr.. Flower an income of about
s. 900 per year, for all which the state,
county or country will receive not one
dollars worth OF benefit. 1t Is a clear
case of robbery of the people to fatten
a piece of brazen cheek and lmpu-
dence, instigated, organized and push
ed forward by the so-called citizens
committee on retrenchment.
But while Mr.. Flower is so grandly
fourishing on s'olen goods, what about
the people who have been so robbed.
They, the people who foot the bills
pied up by this nincOmppop, do not go
off on pleasure trips. They do not dress
in broadcloth and fine linen. They do
not live on Terrapin, quail on toast, Red
Snapper, etc, but have to live on gra-
ham bread, potatoes when they can
get them. milk or water, and dress in
very coarse, cheap clothing, that they
may save up money enough 10 pay the
tax necessary to pay this man Flower
5000 a year to tour Europe. Canada
and other points of interest TO him.
These people are already grooming IN
der burden of dept heaped upon them
by horde of dishonest and irrespOn-
slble officials who pay little or no tax
themselves, and hence care not what
burdens they vote upon others.
How much longer will the people en-
dure this class of public servants? Why
not begin nov to smash the ring of
political highwaymen who infest our
city and have thus far managed our
public affairs? 50 long as the people
submit, so long will they be pIundered
This spring is good time to begin a
reform movement

1t was constant establishment to us
| to see such really excellent meals come
out of such an impossible cavern as our
kitchen. The thing that answers to our
cookingrange is an embankment of
rough brick along one side of the room,
on the top of which are basinlike holes
in which wood fires are built On the
embanhments stands a sort of gigantic,
two barred gridiron, on legs two feet
high, holding pots and pans. Unlike
most jamaican kitchens, ours is fur
nished with a chimney ascending out
of the open hood above the embank-
ment. The kitchen also contains vast
brick oven, under which when it is
used a colossal wood fire must be built.
Cooking is done in pots and pans SINH
lar to ours; but there is also a kind of
red earthenware bowl called a vabba-
apparently an African word-round,
and from three inches to three feet in
diameter. 1t has two rudimentary
handles, and Is generally wobbly on its
base. The color and form. however are
generally artistic.
What do We eat in the tropics?
Well what we do not eat, of the native
productions, would make a long list
Our first taste of vans was in Kings
toll hotel, and the family disapproved
OF them. But we afterwards found that
it was the cooking that was at fault;
when properly prepared they are de-
llcious. The people here live on them.
One buys them, | may say, by the
yard; they are an enormous, ungainly
root. one or two feet long and as thick
as mans arm; indeed, some Of them
more resemble human thigh-and q
black one at that.
Breadfruit is tasteless, unless so dis
guised with gravy as to effect virtue
that it has not. This statement is de-
MED by its admirers
OF fruits there are innumerabe vari-
cites. Oranges, of flavor unknown at
the North, can be had for 10 cents a
hundred. Shaddocks, forbidden fruit
and grape fruit are as common as they
are delicious. Lemons and lines
abound; pineapples, i'll the season, are
good. Ofapples there are few or none
on the island, but peaches can be grown
on the high places. Grapes are seldom
seen, yet there is no reason why ia
maica should not be a great grape
growing country.
Markets in Kingston are open every
day, but there are two full market days
week. All provisions are brought out
on donkey back or in mule carts. The
air here is of 50 pure quality that
meat and fish can be carried long dis
tances, in spite of the heat without
spelling. Artificial ice-there is none
other here-costs cent pound, and
is brought ont on donkey back, wrapped
in cOcOanut trash.
To sit on our front veranda, listening
to the gurgle of the fountain and the
soft rattle of the cocoanut fronds, and
smelling the fragrance of orange, myrtle,
rose and violet; to watch the sparkle Of
the frefiies and the shining of the stars,
and the wonderful clouds tumbling
about the crests and gorges of the
mountains, these delights seem too
much to fall to the share of one Amer
lean family, and we want to share it
with others.
Come and reyel for yourselv, s.

A BLUE Boards CASTLE,
st. Thomas Man Who Disposed
of Seven Wives.

st. Thomas. one of the West India
Islands, is a Danish possession, and
has curious history. In the past 1t
fiourished only on its own vices and its
neiShbor'S miSfortunes. When it grew
virtuouS it ceased to be happy. Its
neighbors' gain proved it's own loss.
Slavery was an institution until 1913
and until that time sugar was cultivat
ed with a success that studied the
thirty-three square miles Of the islands
surface with large plantations and
handsome mansions. But in the fatal
year that slavery was abolished the
colored population, which is more than
three-quarters of the whole. preferred
to give up steady work, and now only
few green vegetables, a little fruit
and some green grass are cultivated.
St. Thomas has long been a com
mercial center The Royal Mail Com
pany and other lines have made the
island their principal rendezvous for
steam packets. and during the Ameri-
can civil war commerce received
great but temporary stimulus. Cnfor-
tunateIy for st. Thomas the war could
cline, and when. in 1885, the Royal
Mail Company removed It's headquar
tiers to Barbados, the death blow WAS
given to the commerce of the island.
1t has one town named Charlotte
Amalie. but the natives insist upon
calling it, as well as the island, st.
Thomas. The town IS garrisoned by i
force Of one hundred men. who protect
the lives and liberties of five thousand
citizens. The little town lies a the foot
of high hills covered with stunted trees
and shrubs. 1t is very picturesque
with its white houses mostly red-roof
ed and only wants a big church to re-
call some of the small towns along the
Italian Riviera. Above it stands two
ancient towers called Bluebeard's and
Blackhead'S castles. They were built
two centuries ago by brothers. one of
whom had a happy faculty Of getting
rid of his wives-hcnce the name of
Bluebeard-and was not called to aC-
cunt by his Maker until he had made
an end to seven Mrs PlupbeardS
