ONLY WOMAN'S THEATER.
Paris Is Building the First of Its
Kind in the World.

rs tnS ASe Va -"
Kind in the World.
Women of every country hereafter
will be at liberty to defend their inter
ests, assert their privileges and air their
grievances through the medium of the
drama or the opera, for Paris is build
ing the first and only woman's theater
in the world. 1t is to be devoted solely
to the interests of women. and has its
site next to the Women's club known as
the Cercle Pigalle, near Montmartre,
says the Detroit Free Press.
The only weak spot about the affair
is that the manager is a mere man. This
is disappointing. So long, however, as
he is willing to do the drudgery and
let honor and glory go to the lot of the
women it does not very much signify;
and, moreover, it is provided in the
agreement that he shall take his in
structions from the executive commit
tee of the board of directors, which is
composed of five women. He must be
wonderful man. At present he has
succeeded in pleasing the entire board.
Nine. Loevy, who will direct the for
elSn department, Is very cOflfuent as 10
its future. Heretofore, she says, the
fact that play was written by WON
an has been sufficient in most instances
to condemn it; but this sort of thing is
to end, and women are to have prece-
dence over man in at least one theater.
Man, however, will be graciously lis
tened to in the event of his writing
plays or operas which Lear on the sub
ject of woman's rights, and he is prom
ised fair and unprecedented criticism.

TOO MUCH PLOT.
Why so Many Dramatfzed Novels
Have Been Complete Failures.

why so Many Drnmatfzed Novels
Have Been Complete Failures.
Several recent failures, or narrow es-
capes, of promising new plays teach
again the old lesson that so few dramat-
lists learn. In every case-too much
plot, says the New York Word.
The dramatist too often forgets that
he is not novelist, and tries to please
the people by giving them entangle-
ments and mysteries. And the people
are puzzled, irritated and wearied. The
plot set down in outline seems simple
enough. But when the actors try to
put it into pantomime it becomes te-
dious or comprehensive.
A moments thought will make it
clear that plot is very small considera-
ton in the construction of play. The
simpler it is the better, so little does il
amount to that the pleasure got from
seeing play is not lessened by know
ing the plot in advance.
The dramatist wants situation. The
less plot he has to use to carry them
and make them probable the better his
chances of success.
This is the reason why failure lies in
wait for dramatized novels. The very
element that makes the novel popular
makes the play a dreary bore.

woMAn.s PROGRESS IN JAPAN.
The Emperor and the Empress Bot
Believers in Modern Ideas.

The Emperor and the Empress Both
Believers I'm Modern Ideas.
At last the women of Japan are be-
ginning to get their inning. The en-
peror himself is interested in their adj
, Sanoememt. He hopes in time that they
will attain the same position enjoyed
by the women of Europe and America
The first step he took toward this adj
vancement was to abolish stained teeth
and shaved eyebrows. Next, on the
twenty-ffth anniversary of his mar
riage he introduced the idea of the cell
ebration of silver wedding into his
country On this occasion he gave
a big feast and received countless pres
ents His female subjects were delight
ed at this, and said that no empress had
ever been so hopored, says the New
York Sun.
The empress of Japan, Fusaka, is
by no means kept in the background by
her husband. She shares his throne,
and is consulted on matters of national
Importance. More than this, she pre-
sides at his table, and this is an honor
accorded to none of her predecessors.
The empress, from all accounts, is quite
an uD-to-date woman, and has proven
herself worthy of all her privileges. She
is an active patroness of the Toxic
women's hospital, which is conducted
on the most modern scientific princi-
pies. She is also quite an athlete, and
has model gymnasium, erected solely
for her benefit, in the palace. She prac-
tees there every day, and is also fond
of riding. Who knows but in time
she may take to the bicycle? The en-
peror has dedicated to her many of his
most beautiful poems, which show that
the bravest deeds have been inspired
by feminine beauty. She is even more
interested in the advancement of her
sex than he is.

Ships That Have Sailed from Port
Not to Return.
1t is some years now since the last
mysterious disappearance of great
ship. This was the Naronic, a freight
steamer of unusual size which sailed the
Atlantic and was lost in 1893 Pieces of
wreckage from this vessel have been
picked up, however, which has not
been the case in all such cases. Among
the mysterious disappearances of the
past were the steamships President, City
of Glasgow, Pacific, Ocean Monarch
and City of Boston, the ironclad Cap
tain and the Liberia and Barton.
Twenty-seven years have passed away
since the City of Boston was placed on
the missing list, but some are now liv-
ing who had friends and relatives on
board of her.
The City of Boston cleared at the port
of New York on Tuesday, January %,
1870. She sailed from Liverpool by the
way of Halifax, with - cabin and
10 steerage passengers. Since she left
Halifax no vestige of her has ever beer
seen except message saying that the
ship was sinking. Her exact fate will
never be known.
