The Marietta Daily Leader
SUNDAY, JAN, "a. 1900.
The Royal Box.

One Of the most delightful plays ever
rendered in Marietta, is The Royal
Box" rendered at the Auditorium last
night by most capable company OF
actors, headed by Andrew Robson and
Miss Coghlan, both people OF talent
and we'll known.
Manager Selpel may we'll congratu-
late himself for obtaining so good a
thing as THE Royal Box" 1t had
never before been presented to Mari
eta audience; and 1t is work full OF
new dramatic situations, all handled
so evenly and refreshingly we'll by a
talented company that 1t was a
charming presentation.
To sit in an audience with the Prince
of Wales is a novel happening in Ma
rletta, but such was the experience of
the people at the play last night. 1t
was a mock Prince of Wales, however,
but the conception of the playwright
in placing a number of his actors in
the audience is an ingenious and in
teresting bit of work.
Robson, the leading man, did some
particularly fine work in number OF
places which called for strong dra-
matte action. He was called before
the curtain several times.
All the people in the company are
players of merit, and they deserve big
houses wherever they go.
Let us hope for more of the same
kindi

means she could avoid him. There
was ice boating. and while he searched
for her he saw her flying by in one of
the skimming craft, sitting erect and
fearless, while the great white boat
took to itself the wings Of reckless
bird.
In the afternoon there was a musi-
Gale, and he saw her sitting demure
and sober in corner where he could
not reach her; and later, at dinner, in
all the witchery of her cleaning toilet
of white, he had the sorry satisfaction
of glimpsing her as she vent down to
dinner with another man.
In the evening she seeEed to fit be-
fore his eyes like a wiil-o'-the-wisp.
He could never get near enough to
speak. He gave up at length. and went
away, angry and hurt. And the next
morning telegram came, calling him
back to town. He said to himself
that he would meet her somewhere,
though he was quite aware that her
life was much more given up to fash
ionable pleasures than his own. But
the winter wore away and he met her
nowhere. He could not think of try
ing to call upon her. She had not asked
him to do so; she had seemed not to
care for him after that first night, but
accuse himself as he might of having
been an infatuated fool. he could not
rid himself of the idea that for a few
hours his soul was nearer to hers than
it had ever been to that of any other
human being. To be sure, their happi-
ness and sweet intimacy had been hid
den under badinage and an affectation
of Indifference, but it was there all the
same.

Ant EnCnics,

All ants that are not from the same
nest seem to be deadly enemies, but
while an ant will do what he can to
put to death stranger he does not
seem to take corresponding delight
in aiding his friends, as is shown by
the following experiment: A scientist,
in order to test the affection of ants
belonging to the same nest, took six
of them and imprisoned them in
small bottle, covering it with piece
of coarse muslin. Their fellows paid
no attention to the prisoners, but
when the experiment was repeated,
substituting, however. six ants of a
rival tribe, their enemies swarmed
around the bottle, and after some
thing like week through persistent
effort they succeeded in eating their
way through the muslin. Two ants
were found dead, evidently proving
that they had been put to death,
while the others probably escaped.

ing the city he made himself gay in
white duck and boldly called at her
house. She was out on porch at the
rear of the severe-looking city houss,
and had made herself miniature
country seat there, with palms and
ferns and flowers. The hammock was
moving as If she had just quilted it,
but when he met her she was arising
decorously from one of the chairs that
surrounded a reading table Uttered
with the midsummer magazines.
You haven't your skates on!" she
cried mockingly, extending her hand.
Her eyebrows went up and came down
in funny, nervous little way and the
corners of her mouth seemed tremu-
lous.

desiring to keep still and enjoy the
happiness OF being together again.

serious. He arose finally.

Observation-Disclosures.

The state Besjukovschtschina, in
Russia. is probably the only place in
the world that is run entirely by
women. This state is made up of seven
villages. each presided over by a
mayoress, the whole under the super
intendence of lady named Saschka,
who acts as president. There are
women magistrates. women preachers,
women policemen-in fact, every ca
pacity. in the state is filled by women.
The roads are made by women, and
women sell milk and deliver letters.
If you want to bring an action against
your neighbor in this state you go to a
woman lawyer; and II there is any

she deviated at all from that. through

But the greatest science was in reck-

lost its minute hand, but after boiled
her she told the hours, and that was
near enough on long stretch. The
18th day OF July, 1897, some hundred
miles southwest of Christmas Island,
saw anti-trade clouds flying up from
the southwest very high over the reg
ular winds, which weakened now for
few days, while a swell heavier than
usual, set in also from the southwest.
A winter gale was going on in the di-
rection of the Cape of Good Hope. Ac-
cordingly 1 steered higher to wind
ward, allowing twenty miles a day,
while this went on, for change of cur
that course 1 made the Keeling Islands
right ahead. The first unmistakable
sign of land was visit one morning
from a white tern that fluttered very
knowingly about the vessel and then
took itself westward with business
like air in its wing The tern is
called by the islanders the "pilot of
Keeling Cocos." A little farther on l
came among a great number of birds
fishing, and fighting over whatever
they caught. Springing aloft, l saw
from halfway up the mast cocoanut
trees standing out of the water ahead.
l expected to see this, still it thrilled
me as an electric shock might have
done. l slid down the mast, tremb-
ling under the strangest sensations;
and not able to resist the impulse l sat
on deck and gave way to my emotions.
