Particular attention will be paid to the
staging of the play and not even the
slightest detail will be overlooked. The
scenery, painted expressly for Miss
Blair's production, is said to be unusually
elaborate. while the costumes worn
throughout the play are costly and de
regeuer as the story deals with the
nobility and gentle-folk of England some
two centuries ago. Each and every de-
tail of the production was personally
superintended by Miss Blair. and the
tour is under the direction of Mana ger

Capt. Sgsbee said, continuing: 1.-THE
whole question. so far as l can understand
it, was coal, and nothing but coal, and
when went aboard, SO far as l could judge
from that conversation, Commodore Schley
had already made up his mind to go to Key

Mr.. Rayner-"What was that last answer,
please?"
The answer was then read by the stenog-
rapher. and Mr.. Rayner objected to it, say
ing he did not want any judgment.
Admiral Dewey-"Did he tell you he was
going to Key West?
The witness answered: "TIe told me he

first thing Commodore Schley told me when
l came on board was that he was going to
Key West. l understood that he had been
to Gonalves, and that he was going to Key
West"
Mr.. Hanna read a question, but told the
witness not to answer it until an oppor-
tunity had been given for objection to be
| made. The question was: What was the
manner and bearing Of Commodore Schley
on that occasion?
Captain Sigsbee: II should like to answer
that question, not in any invidious sense,
but as my memory recalls"
Mr.. Rayner: Il cannot understand this
we are under specification now. The
witness has had the fullest opportunity to

The next morning the inhabitants

hunters was climbing a steep rock
when he suddenly found himself face

treat was cut OF by the rock itself
Neither the man nor the animal could
escape the encounter.
The dilemma was an awkward one,
for the climber was unarmed. Reallz-

leopard on each side Of its jaw. hold

GAIN BY GOOD ROADS.
The Value to the Farmer Cannot BE
Measured by Money


\ statiStician has estimated that IL
only the worst places in the roads of
Minnesota could lie repaired farmers
would be able To haul oue-third more
at a load and to haul it in oue-thlrd
less time. Where it now costs So to
market three-fourths of ton it would
then cost but s. a ton, 4 saving of half
the expense.
Again it is estimated that If Texas
had good roads S2,T00000 would be
saved every year ON the transportation
Of her cotton crop--a sum that eeon0n-
ically used would build thousands Of
miles of permanent highway.
But it is not only when the farmer
markets his crop that he loses by bad
roads or gains 10y good ones. \ New
jersey economist has expressed the
opinion that wherever good roads have
been built in that state land values
have risen fully 50 per cent.
III Is likely enough. for once this i'm
provement has been made others are
pretty sure to follow ~ electric cars
come in; free mail delivery is secured
rlch people establish country homes.
Eventually the isolated farm is linked
TO the world by many commercial and
social ties.
The value of all this to the farmer
and his family cannot be measured nv
money alone. But any one can esti.
mate how much it would be worth TO
himself to live in close touch with hu.
man interests rather than to dwen in
comparative seclusion on the off side
of n mudhole.
