Forgiven has been said to be one of the
best american plays written. Its char
acters are living beings of every day life

is one that causes the most disinterested

Shetland ponies open the first part with
pictures OF camp life, in which one of the

Railroad mileage in the south, when
compared with that of the north in it's
number of miles per 100 square miles area
of country, and 10000 population, is very
small, and many, regard this sections
advancement to its conditions of develop
ment as wonderful, when its compare
lively restricted transportation facilities
are considered. Many of it's most fertile
sections possess but little railroad mile
age, and this is regarded as a conclusive
proof that splendid opportunities exist
here for new railroad enterprises. The
state of Kentucky has 75S miles for every
100 square miles, and Illinois has 1902 to
the same area. Massachusetts has twen-
ty-six miles to every 100 square miles, and
SCI miles for every 10000 Inhabitants.
