AT THE THEATER.
"Secret Service" an Admirable Play
and Wen Given.


''Secret Service was played at the the
ater last night before a fine audience.
The play was a thoroughly enjoyable one
and was thoroughly enjoyed.
The play is a love story, or, to be more
exact, it is several pretty love stories, for
there are several pairs of lovers in it. The
chief interest, however, centers in the
battle of hearts between the northern Sc
cret service man and the charming south
ern girl, whose face has won him, but
whose loyalty to the confederacy makes
her difficult prize to capture A better
love story has seldom found it's way to
the stage.
The appearance of Mr.. Hardee Kirk
land as Benton Arrelsford" added local
interest to the production. Mr.. Kirkland
is a finished actor and his portrayal of
the confederate secret service agent,
though the part is not an agreeable one,
won for him repeated applause.

THE play is a frame on which to hang
the specialtes of the different members
of the company. Really good singing by
well-trained voices, clever dancing and
Jokes that were bran new, were the spc-
cial features of the entertainment. Miss
Lillian Durham possesses a clear So
prano voice that won for her repeated
applause. The dancing of the Delve sis

of Leaves.
From the Washington Star.
probably not one person in thousand
knows just why leaves change their color
in the fall" remarked an eminent botanist
the other day to reporter of the Star.
1.-THE green matter in the tissues of a
leaf is composed of two colors, red and
blue. When the sap ceases to flow in the
autumn the natural growth of the trees
is retarded and oxidation of the tissue
takes place. Under certain conditions the
green of the leaf changes to red; under
different aspects it takes on a yellow or
brown hue. The difference in color is due
to a difference in combinatio of the
original constituents of the green tissues
and to the varying condition of climate,
exposure and soil. A dry, hot climate
produces more brilliant foliage than one
that is damp and cool. This is the rea-
son that American autumns are so much
more gorgeous than those of England and
Scotland.
There are several things about leaves,
however, that even science cannot explain,
For instance why one of two trees, grow
ing side by side, of the same age, and
having the same exposure, should take on
brilliant red in the fall and the other
should turn yellow, or why one Dranch oil
a tree should be highly colored and the
rest of the tree have only yellow tint
are questions that are as impossible to
answer as why one member of a family
should be perfectly healthy and another
sickly. Naples and oaks have the bright
est colors.
people should be careful not to touch
the gorgeous red and yellow autumn leaves
or shrubs and climbing plants which are
not known to be harmless. Our two pois-
onous native plants display the most brill
liant autumnal colors of any species in
our woods and highways. The poisonous
sumach resembles a group of young ash
trees. The poisonous ivy resembles the
harmless woodbine. Its leaves, however,
have but three leaflets, while those of
the woodbine have FIVE"
