The report of the college entrance examination board of the middle states and Maryland has been issued by the secretary, Prof. Nicholas Mur- ray Butler, of Columbia university. The report is the first bearing on the scheme, perfected year ago, to make college entrance requirements uni form. Up to the present time the board has met with much success.

ToRToIsEs EAT ILLUSTRATIONS
Farmer in Indian Territory Misses His Fruit anSl Makes a Most Re-
 markabIe Discovery.

G. Carson, a farmer near Eufaula. Ind. T., was on the streets the other day and said:
 ''I wish there was market for tortoise. If there was would be in good shape financially in a little while. have large patch of muskmelons and the vines have been loaded with the fruit, but as they got about ready for harvesting, something began eat ing them at night. Several nights were spent in laying for the intruders, and late one night there was a rattling of dry bones, orlsounds that somewhat resembled that. and before taking a run for the house I took farewell look, and beheld herd of tortoises all over the cantaioupe patch. I made a dash among them and bursted the hulls of some dozen, captured two, and have them captives."
 To make sure that he was not mis- taken in the melon thieves, he now and then dropped muskmelon in the box where they are confined and he says they rush upon it and eat nearly as fast as hog.

70 HELP OUR TRADE
American Chamber of Commerce to
 Be Established in London.
Trade Relations of the United States Demand the Advantages of g Conn merciaI Ass0ciatiOn-Need of
 the Iron Business.

It seems possible now that an. Amext- gan chamber of commerce will be es- tablished before long in London. The rapidly growing colony of American business men here has been wanting something of the sort for good while, and at last definite steps are being taken to that end. Perhaps the move ment for the ablishment here of a Canadian chamber of commerce, and of another for Australasia, may have sonnet hing to do with hastening the organization of the American institu- tion, says the London correspondents of the New York Press.
 According to S. G. Hobson, the Lon don representative of the Iron Age, there is no branch of American trade in England to which the advantages of commercial association of the kind proposed appeal more strongly than to the iron and steel manufacturers.
 ssThere is no doubt about the bene- fits that would accrue from an organi- zation of the kind we hope to estab- fish," said MT. Hobson in an interview.
 ''In the beginning, in order to popu- larize American trade over here, it is essential that our traders should know each other If American trade IS to be a real factor here, American traders must help each other. Every American representative in London constantly is in receipt of inquiries as to who are the makers of certain American specialties. If he knew he could refer the inquirers to the manu- fon nfa 1no4 4o1x nI h.o1 10f- ter men in the way of business.
 ''In such chamber would facilitate trade relations between American houses and British companies who want to trade their goods. Dealers over here are wide awake to the possi- Utilities of American products and are anxious to obtain the English agencies, but the replies they receive to their proposals often are surcharged with suspicion, and more often than not the negotiations end Tn nothing.
 "An American trade association could accomplish great deal in the direction of getting lower freight rates; in other words, toward solving the American traders greatest prob lem. 1.-the members of various trades knew each other better different one who had comparatively small ship ments of freight coming over could combine them and save substantial sum every time that this was done. An increase in volume of trade always tends to decrease rates, and lower rates, of course, would mean the pos. sibility of lower prices. Then there ex- ists at present in England lot of an- moving little dock charges, which, i. American dealers were organized could be got rid of quickly.'

GRAND SACRED CONCERT.

In the grand sacred concert which is scheduled for tomorrow evening at Polls the leading feature is striking novelty which has attracted much at tention. 1t is called "The Great Ce- cilia' and is regarded as the best sa- cred act in existence. The stage is dark when the curtain rises and then in the backs.a rosy light. soft and beautiful, shows dimly the arched out lines of great cathedral. As the light grows stronger, richly colored windows appear; the aisles and naves are visible. and down in front a kneel- ing figure sings a glorious anthem. As the singer. finishes. the light slowly fades away and the stage is again en- veloped in darkness. Again the cur tain goes up and the figure of St Ce- cilia is seen seated at the organ. re- production of the famous picture with which we are all so familiar. It is a beautiful noyely and has made an ex- traordinary sensation wherever it has been shown. There are "a number of other features which tendsto make this concert one of great interest. Prices are 25. 35 and 50 cents. and seats are now on sale.s U G-f sa ss

Built" will be the attraction at Polls Monday evening. Miss St George Hussey, who enjoys a great reputation as a clever comedienne. is making the success of her career in this piece, in which she appears as a rich widow Ill love with an English nobleman. She has an excellent foil in George H. Sum- mers, who, as Willie Slab, the paper hanger, is as distinctly novel as he is clever and is at all times excruciat- ingly funny. May Courtney in the role of the vaudevillian is also great. In fact. the cast as whole is the best that could possibly be selected, and the play itself as laugh provoker, pure and simple, is said to be exceptionally clever as we1 as original. 1t falrly abounds in ludicrous scenes, telling lines and comical situations. All the specialties are new, bright and thor oughly up to date. Seats are now on sale at 9, 35, 50, 75 cents and $1.

''The Penitent," with Edgar Davenport in the leading role, Tuesday evening at Polls.
 POWER BEHIND THE THRONE" It is evident that the play going pub lie of this town is ever anxious to see Miss Mildred Holland in her thrilling play '.The Power Behind the Throne" which was the attraction at Polls last night. The house was filled and ap- preciative and from the outset gave Miss Holland and her players every in- dication of sympathetic support. The play is picture of court life in a Ger man principality in the early part of the eighteenth century. ''The Power Behind the Throne is the power that pushes the world round it's axis, Love w. R. Lorimer, the Baron falls in love with 'Aria,' Miss Holland 2 handsome peasant ands almost upon the declaration. of his love for her he is claimed in marriage eby the ssDuch- ess' Gillian Norrisl. On this foundation the play is worked to thrilling climax es. In the third act where Aria is forced to estrange the Baron by her own actions at a court ball and flesh
 
 and blood at length usurping them selves, she turns upon the duchess and makes the royal lady grovel at her feet. This scene transfxed the house while it was enacting and when the curtain at last went down the storm of applause that went up was deafen- ing. Half a dozen times the curtain went up on the actors in this intense ly exciting scene. The character of "Delphine," the maid at the palace. was one of the fine characters of the play acted by Miss Camille Porter. Miss Norris's personal beauty was a strong feature in making her illustra- tion of the role fine success. The company was a strong one, beauti- fully costumed, and the scenery was as real as stage scenery can well be. Ten minutes between the acts was allowed for re-making the stage set ting on account of the heavy and cost ly scenery.

aTHE COuNTY FAIR."

Neil Burgess in ''The County Fair is entertaining a good sized audience at Polls this afternoon. and the play will be repeated this evening. The play. which is well known, is a comedy drama of New England life, in which the principal character. is an old spins ter, Abigail Prue by name, whose kind 1y ways and generous character make for her friends on every hand. The horse race scene made famous by "The County Fair'' is a revelation as the picture of three horses racing at the highest speed in full view of the aud fence. while fences and landscape fly past, is sight which makes those who have the least bit of sporting blood ill fheir veins get up in their seat and shout. All the old features are repro duced and many new ones added. The Jersey cows. the horses, the husking in the barn with the singing farm hands, are still there to be laughed at and to be admired. Prices are 9, 35, 30, 75c and $1.
