The World Outside.

Weber & Fields Music hall in New
York, opened with a new burlesque en-
titled The Whirligig The most
interesting and important part of this
event was the debut of Miss Lillian
Russell-the American Beauty and
the Queen of Comic Opera in
vaudeville. Following the example of
Mr.. Sydney Grundy in London, who
in The Degenerates, gives Mrs.
Langtry an opportunity to enact her
own part, the librettist of THE Whirli-
gig" has given Miss Russell the part
of The Queen of Bohemia
One of the papers suggested that the
part was not much of a strain, and
she was received with the utmost en-
thusiasm. 1t was thought that posi-
bly, the queen. of comic opera might
be too naughty for the Weber and
Fields contingent, but she is said to
have warmed up to the occasion beau
tifully, and seems to enjoy her work
there so thoroughly that she would
never want to sing anywhere but at
Weber & Fields. A feature of the
entertainment was a. burlesque on 1.-THE
Girl from Maxim's,'' called THE Girl
from Martins" with Miss Russell in
the title role.

The Chariot Race In "3en Hur.,


The great chariot race in Ben Hur''
is apparently going to be a great hit
For more than a month expert horse
men have been training for this scene.
Twelve horses are needed, says a New
York paper. More than sixty have been
tried and only eight competent ones
found. They have to run at full speed
on a mechanical device, a thing that
some horses will by no means do. Eight
horses will be on the stage at a time,
and there. will be four trained under
studies.''
There will be four bays for Ben
Hur's chariot, chosen for beauty as
wei as speed Messala's chariot will
be drawn by two blacks and two whites
The substitutes will be two bays,
black and a white.
The illusion, so far as the running of
the horses is concerned, will be pro-
duced in manner similar to that used
by Burgess in the. race scene in THE
County Fair" only on ~ er'o,----1

comique,'' and not comic opera, proved
faiiure-the public did not relish his
departure from low comedy. His OPP
cratic version of ''Cyrano de Bergerac'
! was in no way a burlesque of the orig
! inal which fact made. it somewhat of
an uncertain quantity. However, what
ever Mr.. Wilson's ambitions may be,
he has decided not to quarrel with his
bread and butter, so has engaged Mr..
J. Cheever Goodwin to write plenty OF
fun into the libretto, with the result
that he will soon be back in his own
happy element, out of the realm of
high ambitions and empty houses.
After a vast amount of preparation
and much advance heralding and adj
vertising, "A, Winters Tale" was pro-
duced in Washington by the James
Kidder- Hanford combination. The oc-
casion was a brilliant success, and an
account of 1t is contained in the fol-
lowing from the Washington Star:
1t would be difficult, if not entirely
impossible, TO go into the many details
of a production like that at the New
National last night. Shakespeare's lines
have seldom been so intelligently read
nor his characters been set amongst
more fitting and elaborate scenery, nor
CARRIED in robes more beautiful and
costly. Dealing With regal people and
with ancient l1Ai5HneS5. the 5SlllllSo
were indeed worthy the courts where
the scenario is laid. Every bit of seen
cry and every article of property IS
carried by the company. Every cos
tune was designed and constructed
with faithful regard to correctness in
cut and material. And especially pleas
ing was the fact that all of this was
brilliantly new. The company, large
and well trained in stagecraft. was
han The raSIIlf
of these favorable circunnst ances was a
production of Shakespeare which has
rarely, if ever, been equaled on the
American stage. Every one witnessing
the performance was forced to this con-
clusion. And so great was the interest
of the large audience in the rendition
that all sat thrilled during the eli
makes so wildly portrayed. The still
ness attending this close attention to
every detail of speech and action was
interrupted only when bursts of APP
plause could no longer be restrained by
an audience wrought to a high pitch of
admiring enthusiasm. Flattery too full
some cannot be layished upon the prin
cipals for their Individual work and
the thoroughness of their production.
So much in general terms.
Mr.. Hanford and Miss Kidder have
the principal roles, the former appear
ing as King Leontes, and his work is
said to be magnificent.
Miss Kidder follows the example of
Mary Anderson, and plays the dual role
of Hermione and Perdita. AS was the
case with Mary Anderson, Miss Kidder
is said to excel as Perdita, although
her whole performance has called forth
the most extravagant praise. Mr..
James has the small part of Autolycus,
the rogue, in which his work. although
very brief, and not until the last act,
is most telling. Mr.. John A. Ellsler
played the part of the old shepherd,
Perdita's foster father, and celebrated
his 18th birthday on the day the piece
opened.

MISTAKEN TIPPING.
Americans Abroad Frequently Pay Too
 Much for Services.

An American recently arrived in London from southern city, and be- ing in haste to continue his journey to Paris, hired a cabman to take him on one of his errands. Handing the man two shilling piece, he directed him to a certain number in New Bond street After seating himself in the cab. the passenger waited for several minutes, expecting the horse to start. At last he left the cab and found the driver on the box inspectin the coin, which was double the usual fare. What is the matter?" asked the in dignant traveller. "This seems to be a very small coin for so long distance, was the surly response. The Ameri- can smiled grimly and remarked that the cabman could drive him at once to Scotland Yard As this is the head quarters of the police, the driver per- ceived that the American was not 9 man to be swindled. "I'll drive you to New Bond street" he remarked promptly, Eff you will get in, sir. :" Wait moment" said the American. T want you to look me over carefully Now tell me" he continued, what 1t was in my appearance that led you to think me an idiot. Was it my hat or my collar, or the cut of my oYercoat! I have already paid you double fare for the distance I have asked you to go, but I'll give you as much more if you will fe11 me what there is in my gen. eral makeup that encouraged you to believe that I could be fool enough to allow you to cheat me-" The eabman by this time looked sheepish and un- comfortable. T took you for an Am erican, sir" he said, "and thought l could work another shilling out of you. Here is one of the shillings you gave me and I am ready to drive you to New Bond street" The American had made two mistakes He ought not to have paid double fare, and he ought not to have paid in advance. By violating the ordinary rules observed by people who hire London cabs, he encouraged the cabman to swindle him. The most judicious course for a traveller in a foreign country is to learn the customs of the people in it, and not throw away money by overpaying cabmen and tip ping servants too generously.-Youth's Companion.

shiverlng with Cold.

It requires a considerable amount of philosophy when one is shivering with cold. to take comfort from the fact that this is natures own method of keeping form of exercise in which the muscles instead of doing their or dinary work under the control of the will, are made to execute involuntarily a series of slight but rapid contrac. tions. This has the same effect as any other kind of muscular work in mak- ing the fires of the body turn more rapidly and throw out greater heat. The unpleasantness of the process is meant, no doubt, as hint to the own- CT of the body to take more effective means of warming himself.

Napoleon's Strange Plan of Conquest.
 A German historian is said to have discovered Napoleons original plans for the invasion of Great Britain in the year 17s9, and accident wills it that this discovery was made at the same time that the French agitation for a submarine tunnel connecting France (Yia spain1, with her African possessions is renewed.
 One hundred years ago Napoleon was still General Bonaparte. He had humbled Italy, and had captured the pope; free Switzerland was a vassal of France. Then the general set out to be lord of the sea.
 He decided to tow an army over to the British coast on great floating forts, with large bodies of troops lined up in battle order. They were then to fight their way ashore, and land on the coast without resort to lighters. The troops were to march ashore in the order of their regiments, preceded and backed up by the artillery.
 1t will be remembered that Napoleon has often declared that he would have been as great an admiral as he was a general with half a chance But" he added, the French are useless as sail- ors. They gre too fussy. too excitable. At sea one needs calm mind, quiet fortitude, and energy
 To many on this side of the Atlantic. the words engine house. marked on Napoleon's plans, are of peculiar in- terest. Fulton, the American inventor. launched his first experimental steam boat on the Seine in 1903, but his con pection with the French government dates from 17s7. when he offered his submarine torpedo boat to France. Failing in this, he turned hls attention to steam navigation. From his draw ings, it would seem that Napoleon meant to try steam navigation with his ferries one hundred years ago
 No doubt Napoleon used Fulton's plans but there was still another American inventor at his service John Fitch, of Connecticut-who built the first unsuccessful sidewheelers in 17SS to 17so, and three years later went to Paris to sell improved plans for steam navigation to the French government.
 Bonaparte's ferries. were built in Brest, in Cherbourg, and in Boulogne, but when Napoleon inspected them in the spring of 17s8, his faith in the new tangled marine monsters wavered. He abandoned the proposed invasion of the British Isles and instead started on his famous expedition to Egypt.

Cuban Bananas.

New York Mail and Express: The banana eating habit in this country seems to increase yearly. Each sea- son sees the local markets more abun- dantly supplied with bananas and the fruit less expensive. While this Is true of the yellow skinned bananas, the red or Cuban banana is both scarce and high priced This week a fruit dealer in one of the large office buildings down town had a scant half bunch of the Cuban bananas. which he obtained with great difficulty from a small cargo that had just arrived at this port Their growth was stunted and they were but half ripe yet they sold at a dime apiece. Two cents might have purchased the most lus- cious of the yellow skinned fruit on the dealers counter
