MISS BARROWS AS PENELOPE IN ACT
VI OF THE ODYSSEY"
while walking on Broadway. In vain Mr..
Rowe screamed that he was not the admiral,
and as the only means of evading further
annoyance he and his spouse left town hur-
riedly.
The recent innovation made by the Bal
timore & Ohio railroad, decreeng that uni
formed employees should wear gold stripes
Indicative of their length of service, results
in the greatest number of these stripes be-
ing claimed by Captain w. H. Green, who
has been an even half century with the b..
& o. He began as freight conductor, but
has now been a passenger conductor for
forty eight years. He was never suspended
and today, at the age of 72, is in active
service.
Eugene Etienne, the anti-English leader in
the French Parliament is now Do years old.
In early manhood he served as inspector
general of the state railroads. In 1881 he
was first elected a deputy, serving three
terms. In 1888 he became secretary Of state
for the colonies, which place he held for
three consecutive years. In 1892 and again
in 1S94-'95 he was chosen vice president OF
the Chamber of Deputies. He is republi-
can in politics and man of great influence
with the present government, particularly in
the department of foreign affairs.
Cardinal Luigi Orgelia, who has just been
appointed by the pope as one of his assist
ants in the opening ceremonies of holy year,
is one of the most important members OF
the Catholic hierarchy. He is the dean OF
the sacred college of cardinals and also
camerlingo of the Catholic church, the Of
flee held by Pope Leo before his elevation
to the pontifcate. In case of the death OF
the pope, Cardinal Orgelia would, by virtue
of his office, become acting pope until the
successorship to the throne of st. Peters
is determined. 1t would be his duty to make
the official announcement of the death of the
pontiff and to place the seal upon the pontifi-
cal property. He would also preside over
the conclave of cardinals called to elect the
new pope.

south All the efforts of Spain for 800 years
failed to bring these people to an understand
ing.
Each of the numerous tribes which make
up tho heterogeneous population of
the islands aspire to be the lead
ing one and without some power
full influence between these various
peoples disorder and anarchy would be
rife. The Filipino republic as proclaimed
at Malolos last year is not a government by
consent. The formation of the archipelago
also seems to forbid its being bound into
ono homogeneous whole. There are some
1,200 islands and for the proper maintenance
of order well trained and considerable
navy is necessary. 1t would be hard to
produce such a navy in the Philippines, for
there would surely be complaints of unfair
ness on account Of the many different races.
The ship which might be a guardian of the
law in one island would be pirate in an
other.
Again the burden that would be imposed
upon this people to protect themselves from
foreign aggression would be enormous In
the far east we already have the spectacle
of China being frequently imposed upon and
Japan spending millions upon her navy and
army in order to maintain her standing.
THE Filpinos know their inability to cope
with the existing conditions as well as we
do. Why then do they keep up the fight?
The reason is that they are in the hands of
lawless professional soldiery led by Chinese
Meilizcs. l do not believe they have one
full-blooded Tagalo general. These Meilizos,
with a greater brain radius than the pure
Filipino are for the most part adventurers.
Aguinaldo may be an exception, but 1t is
doubtful"

About Noted People

Joel Chandler Harris, the author and mem
be- of the editorial staff of the Atlanta Con-
stitution, declares that newspaper work is
like the Tar Baby" of which he tells in
one of his Uncle Remus" stories. "Once
you get into it," he says, "it ensnares you
with a fascination from which you can never
get free
Ex-senator John H. Reagan, the sole sur
vivor of Jefferson Davis cabinet and the
orator at the recent unveiling of the Davis
statue at Richmond, is 81 years old, but is
still in good health and active in politics. He
is at the head of the Texas State Railway
commission. He born in Tennessee, and,
as a mere lad, walked all the way to his
present home
George o. Cannon, the Utah politician, has
been taking a great interest in irrigation
and is ver-failing attendant at the meet
ings held in the west to discuss that sub
ject. AT enc of these a drowsy speaker on
artesian wells kept repeating that they never
failed to bring water unless they struck
rock. At last Mr.. Cannon asked: "How
do you account for Moses success?"
Senator Depew's latest story is that of
rather bashful friend who suffered badly.
At a railway depot young woman embraced
and kissed him, then suddenly found she
had made a mistake. "Aren't you Mr.
BROWNE" she asked. "Nno-no, madam"
was the answer, I'm n-n-not, but 1 WV
wish to thunder 1 w-w-was.'
Charles T. Rowe, a Boston man of means,
bears a striking resemblance to Admiral
Dewey and just at present is not particularly
grateful therefor. To make matters worse,
Mrs. Rowe is not unlike the admiral's wife.
The Boston couple were in New York the
other day and were much embarrassed by the
enthusiastic cheers which greeted them

Miss BarrOWS' Greek
And La tin Plays

ct the costumes were fashioned by her own
clever fingers. The latter are of almost in
finite variety--the soft, harmonious, clinging
draperes Of the women made from flmy
gauzes, thin flannel or Oriental silk, con
trasting most effectively with the more brill
liant satins and heavier wouens OF the men.
Teaching the delivery of the lines Is but a
small part of her duties. Miss Barrows
must needs instruct young athletes to box
and wrestle after the old Greek manner
quite different from that of today-to hurl
the discus; to dance the old Greek dances;
to throw the ball while balancing, leaping,
turning and wheeling; to chant the weird
sweet music of the Delphic Hymn with which
the play opens, etc, etc This means the
most arduous work day and night for at
least six weeks
My method is something as follows"
said Miss Barrows: when sent for by
college, l first meet the classical faculty and
they present me to various classes of stu
dents TO whom l give u little sketch of the
play explaining its demands, and showing
pictures Of the final performance. l then
talk the men over with the faculty and
learn something of their college records. OF
course, athletes, dancers, singers and the
''populace" do not need to know Greek. The
students are then invited to meet me
cially After this for a day or two l OBJ
serve them carefully in the lecture room and
on the campus and watch them at their
athletics. | am then able to select two or
three possible actors for each role. These
men l ask to compete for the parts, and after
a day or two l am able to decide which of
them is best fitted for the several roles. or
course they do not begin to commit
their lines until the parts are finally cast
Then l call the entire cast together for a
reading rehearsal, and go over the whole
play. After that do not call them together
again until the last week. The work in the
meantime is entirely individual. / work with
each man until he is nearly perfect in his
part. Then l begin putting them together in
small groups, so that all the work is going
on practically all the time. Once am iu a
college my time is all theirs. l begin at
o'clock in the morning and frequently dur
ing the last week am busy right through
until midnight. The work is of such
absorbing interest that it carries me
through. The cruder your man the more
you want to work to see what can be
brought out of him. l do not take
prominent part in the performance myself,
but am always on the stage, leading dance
or chorus, or directing some part of the play.
1t gives the men more confidence, and am
rarely recognized
Miss Barrows is now at the Social Settle
ment Hull House, Chicago, preparing to
produce during the week beginning Decem-
Der A, alternate performances of "The Re-
turn Of Odysseus" and The Flight of
Aeneaa" by the native Greeks and Italians
of that polyglot quarter AS her efforts are
always crowned with brilliant success, this
is expected to be the sensation of the
winter, besides being liberal education of
the life of the times 1t depicts. From Hull
House Miss Barrows will go to the Kansas
university.

BLOWN TO SEA IN 4 LAUNCH.
LOUIS W. MAsLIN's FATE IN
CENTRAL AMERICA.
The Young Sacramentan Given Up
by His Relatives a.
Lost.

The SAD story comes from San Sal
vador of the death of Louis Woodley
Maslin, son of E. w. Maslin. now Dep
uty Naval Officer at San Francisco,
and brother Of Prentiss and E. " Mas
lin of this city.
The letter containing the news was
from Benjamin Baruch, United States
! Consul at San Salvador, to relative of
Louis Maslin's wife, who died in San
Salvador soon after her husband took
up his residence there. 1t states that
Maslin, with an Italian and eight Sal
vadorians, was at the pier at. Ell Triun-
70 in a. launch, on December Sd, await
| ing the arrival of a steamer from Pana-
ma, when they were caught by a great
| gale and blown out to sea.
The English war ship Phaeton, which
was at Acajutla at the time, went in
search of them, and the Pacific Mail
| steamship Starbuck was notified to
keep a sharp lookout, but neither was
able to get any trace of the launch or
| it's occupants.
While it is possible that the occu-
pants of the launch may have survived
the storm that blew them to sea and
been picked up by some passing ship,
his brother Prentiss, who was seen last
night, says the worst is feared, and he
| has no hope that his brother was saved,
as he was a young man of delicate
physique and not able to do much to
help himself in such an emergency.
Louis Maslin was greatly liked by
his Sacramento associates. He was
born in Grass Valley on June 10, 1866,
and was therefore SO years of age. He
lived with his parents in this city for
several years. and for a while resided
on his fathers vineyard at LOOMS,
Placer County. After leaving Howe's
Academy in this city he went to the
State University, and took the agricult-
ural and chemistry courses there.
| About 1887 he went to San Salvador
as the manager of the great coffee
plantation of Jose de Guadiola, one OF
the leading coffee planters of Central
America He returned on a visit in
1889 and went back in 1890. In 1897
| he returned to California and married
niece of Reuben H. Lloyd, the San
Francisco lawyer, who died in San Sal
vador
For the last two years Mr. Maslin has
been in charge of the San Francisco
Bridge Company's interests at FL
| Triunfo, San Salvador, and was among
the more prominent Americans in that
country. His death under the circum-
stances related is very painful dow
| to his father and brothers. 1t Will be
remembered that his sister Maud,
sweet and 1ovable girl, lost her lie
many years ago by drowning while on
visit to one of the summer resorts In
the mountains of Placer County.

ADJUSTMENTS.

Aiston's Company presented the
pretty play, ''Tennessee's Partner" to
a good house at the Clunie last night.
The play is dramatized from Bret
Harte's story of the same name. 1t is
clean, sustained and probable recital.
The company is strong on the male
side, Mr.. Mainhall (who suffered in
voice from bad cold), Mr.. Ryder, Mr..
Plunkett and Mr.. Westmen being care
full and capable people in the leading
male characters, and the Golden Mug
get" male quartet being a very pleas
ing and tunefuf group of singers. The
company could be strengthened upon
the female side. Miss Corcoran is
hardly the personality that Tennessee
Kent calls for; the part needs more
frank, impulsive and warmer nature
than she clothes it with. The company
goes to San Francisco to-day for a
weeks engagement.

LOST A CRIME RECORD.
Yesterdays Day Police Force Per
picked the Night Force.

Officer Talbot, who is regarded as one
of the most accurate historians of the
police force, was puzzled when he be-
gan to paw through drawers and desks
last night for the usual record of daily
crimes. Though he hunted high and
low he could find it nowhere.
Il spend much of my time" said
Talbot, I'm reducing to paper an ac-
curate record of all that occurs while I
am ON watch during the night. l am
entitled to my history of the days
doings, so that I may know where I'm
at, as the politicians say
Through drawers, desks and pigeon
holes he rummaged but ali to no pur-
pose. So he decided that some one had
stolen the records, or that none had
been made. AS he has often had SIM
liar experiences, it is probable that he
will ask the Chief to appoint a historian
for the day force.

TIGER AND ELEPHANT.
Evangelist Weber Talks to Men ON
Their Many Sins.

Evangelist Weber yesterday after
noon preached to men only on "Buck-
Ing the Tiger and Seeing the Ele-
phant. The Sixth-street Church was
crowded to its full capacity. and the
discourse was full of strong hits on
popular evils of the day-gamb bling.
drinking and profigacy among men in
particular.
The speaker interested the audience
before he began to preach, as well as
afterward, by frequent humorous refer
ences during the singing He enthused
the congregation to the higher pitch
during the song service
He would say, Now let all the sim
ners sing." and afterward would call
upon the married men, the single men.
or even upon the bald heads to sing
their very best
During his sermon he stated that all
gamblers will do dishonest things.
hence he might say that all gamblers
will steal. He spoke of the reckless
habits engendered by gambling. and
held that it led to drinking and other
crimes, robbing loved ones of support
and destroying the character of all
those on whom they depended for liv-
ing Many of his strong hits were
based on the fact that men in the audi
ence had Christian mothers. He would
often say: Boys, are you living the
way your mother would have you live?
Why not turn and live so as to meet
her in the beautiful hereafter?''
His logical arraignment of the men
who depart from all the cardinal prin-
ciples Of morality was the best part of
his talk. There is no reason why the
same moral laws that apply to women
should not apply to men, he said, "and
If you are wrong and false you have no
right to defile pure life by attach
ing your life to that of trusting wo-
man."

MONEY IN POULTRY.


Senator Boggs, who represents Co.
lusa County, recently informed the
editor of the Colusa Sun that he
purchased all the groceries for his
ranch from one Sacramento house, and
that he sends that house all his spare
eggs, which are credited to his ac-
count. He has fifteen or twenty men
all the time employed and his grocery
bill is no small item, but when he set
tied in January he found that he had
5000 in cash coming to him.
Eggs and chickens are eaten without
stint on the ranh, and yet he says his
chickens did not cost him during the
year to exceed $780, Room, he says,
is what is wanted for chickens, and
they will largely make their own liv-
ing.
Shade is another thing necessary to
chickens. but even out on the plains,
shade can be had in a remarkably
short time, and as for room there is
plenty. Any family any sort of a year
can get all it's groceries from eggs.
