there Is some weak spot about the
place and that some American may
discover 1t. They have very nonsensi-
cal rules and regulations governing the
fortiiication, and one of them Is that
no American can he admitted TO the
fortified places, though they are al
lowed to wander all iaound the outside
| as long as they care 10,
Il do not think the combined guns OF
the rest of the world, all working to-
gether and for II hours each day, Sun
days and public holidays included, for
one year, could seriously Interfere with
Gibraltar beyond cutting off the mail
communication The walls are solid
rock Il quarter of n mile thick, and
such thing rs doing any damage In
Il military sense would be simply non
| sense. tGbialtd1 tbulu ItHihl any az
tack, and the conditions there are such
that the attacking party would neccs
snriIy have to be exposed In making
| its attack. This exposure would have
TO be within range Of the guns of the
fort even II they are 30 years out of
date Consequently they would be
nearly as effective as modern guns,
for with all that IL claimed for modern
warfare there probably never Will be
any fighting done when the opposing
parties are out of sight of each other.
"While all this is admitted by MILL
tary men of all countries, 1t seems
| funny that there should be anything
of n secret or hidden character about
Gibraltar that Americans should not
be allowed to inspect as freely as the
people of other countries are. Eng
land may be whipped some time In the
history Of the world but the defcat
will not take place at Gibraltar, as
sure you" Washington Star.

SCENERY FOR A NEW PLAY.
Its Preparation In Modern Thentern
nn interesting Process.


The preparation for Il new play, as
far as the scenery Is concerned, Is most
Interesting. A complete model In min
laturc Is made, about the size of one
Of the German toy thcatcrs seen In the
shops. The picture is carefully painted;
the rocks. IL there be any, and the
foliage are cut out, and ali the details
are followed with no less thought than
when the real affair Is attacked.
The work Is done in water color,
mounted on pasteboard, and II the
scheme be an interior there are real
curtains In miniature, flights OF steps,
and the hangings, all seriously worked
out. 1t is something that would de-
HIGHT the heart Of n boy and furnish
him with endless amusement. These
models are kept until after tho piece
Is produced, and are then put away
on shelves, alas! only to warp and be,
come covered with dust.
But the master painters work does
not end here by any means, Tor thcre
are lights to be arranged, since they
play an important part In the per-
formance and must be regulated by
the scheme Of color; so there are long
conferences with electricians ana many
discussions with the makers or glass
shades whereby the exact tlnts may be
obtained.
When every detail has been settled,
then the great acres of canvas are
spread on the paint frames, ana the
drawing is begun. Large china pots
are used for the colors. These are filled
with paints, which are mixed with
water and size, and enormous
brushes put the pigment on the can
vas. It is wonderful to watch the
artist, who dashes on the paint with
no apparent care aud who has to WORK
fast TO cover the surface before the
color dries, which 1t does quickly
