indicate that two vast ships are being
built, for the preliminary scaffolding
looks like that used in building house.
Nearly as much freight as could be
stored In three big city warehouses can
go. in the holds of each of these two big
ships. The actual dimensions of the YES
sells are: 63O feet long, 70 feet wide and Sc
ment of $4,000 tons. The biggest passen-
ger steamship now af1oat is the Oceanic
of the White Star line. The dimensions
of the Oceanic are: Length, 704 feet;
ment, 2S,500 tons. From these figures 1t
can be seen that while the Oceanic is
longer than either of the two man.

There will be no place for fripperies on
the new ships. Each will be about as
handsome as a mud scow, but as useful
as pin. There will be no accommoda-
ton for passengers, If the original plans
are carried out although it is possible
that, later, as is the case with many
of the big English freighters enough
cabins will be built to accommodate a
dozen or so select travellers. The ships
of the Glen line, for instance, are nom
inally cargo boats, but they have excel
lent passenger accommodations beside
and are able to obtain higher prices for
passage to China than even the regular
passenger steamships.

1t is the intention of the Great North

big frei4N steamships not only the larg-
est, butFthe swiftest cargo carriers In
the world. They will be furnished with
sion engines almost as powerful

pany the First, Attraction.


Baby uLund and hers company will ap-
pear at the Star theater for one week,
beginning this afternoon, in a musical
comedy in three acts entitled 1.-The Gyp-
sy Princess. The play is comedy over
flowing with interesting scenes and eli
makes and telling a beautiful story.
Baby Lund, who portrays the part of
Pearl, the Gypsy Princess, is supposed to
have been kidnapped from her mansion
homeS at the opening of the play, by a
character known as Gypsy Joe. s Pearl S
parents are wealthy and have spent thou
sands of dollars trying to locate her.
The piece concludes in the third act with
the finding of her rich parents after
many dramatic and comedy effects. The
second act of 1.-The Gypsy Princess will
be devoted to the vaudeville olio,s which
includes Baby Lund, Kearns and Cole,
Lockhart sisters, Whalen and De Trace,
Harry Wilmoto Spingold, Tom Sawyer,
Marris S. Silver, Frank j. Conroy, Fred
Paul and others. Many attractive fea-
lures will be introduced during the per

setting will be- composed Of plush cur
tains representing value of $1,000, a
novelty that has never before been in
troduced.

much to do with educating the theater-

SIN Old Kentucky" at Grand Again
This Week.
I'm Old Kentucky" unquestionably the
most successful American play produced
in many years and one that has been re-
ceived with favor everywhere, will oc-
cupy the stage of the Grand fair week.
The engagement will commence tonight
and in addition to the regular matinees
special afternoon performance will be
given on Monday, Sept. 2, Labor day.
AS it is pretty well known, it deals with
an interesting phase of Kentucky life,
and is symmetrical and well-proportion-
ed structure characterized by poetic
fervor and keen and forc.ble phraseology.
Its main strength lies in its simplicity
and picturesqueness 1t would not be
true to it's name if it did not represent
a horse race in some form. This feature
is recalled as a very realistic scene and
shows the Lexington race track at the
finish of a very spirited race between sew
eral Kentucky thoroughbred horses,
which, urged on by their jockeys, make
a wild dash under the wire in full view
of the audience. The author is credited
with having given vivid pic
ture of social life in Kentucky,
and with the romance has
woven enough thrilling incidents into the
story to win the applause of those who
craze for the spirited action of melo-
drama. He also introduces a novel fea-
ture in the shape of a genuine band of
pickaninnieS, who, to use a common ex-
preston, lend local color to the scene

ing from the strange conditions of her
lonely life, that makes her most poetic
and attractive figure. The scenery is all
new and appropriate, representing with a
rare degree of fidelity many interesting
Kentucky scenes. I'm Old Kentucky was
described In New York the best exam
pie of American melodrama seen in many
years. 1t will be given in this city com
piete in all its details and with all the
original effects which contributed so
largely TO Its success in the metropolis.

lucky this season is promised to be one
of the best that has ever been seen in
the piece. Alice Treat Hunt, lady who
is said to have much to recommend ner
both in the way Of beauty and dramatic
talent, has been cast for the part of
Madge, a role she is promised to fiji
most admirably. Miss Hunt was last
seen here in the leading role In Caleb
West, and has to her credit a list of
successful approximations with other
metropolitan organizations. OF last sea-

who has long assumed the role of Horace

will be superb, and as heretofore the
pickaninny band will be a popular fea-
ture. These clever little Senegambians
are said to play better than ever before.
Special attention is called to the fact
that on Monday, Sept. 2, special Labor

steamships of great carrying capacity
and of high speed. The freight rates
charged by the swift passenger steam
ships which cross the Atlantic and Pa
cific are very high, but the prices are
gladly paid by merchants who want their
goods In a hurry. The company which
is building these big ships is making no
experiment. 1t is merely meeting what
it considers to be a well marked demand
for bigger boats and higher speed.
