Next Friday evening, September 20,
Manager Feinler will offer at the Opera
House, The Casino Girl" the newest
trans-continental extravaganza success
issuing from the annual output of Geo.
w. Lederer. People who think it worth
while to note the dol kss of the theatre
will recall this as IL latest joint gay
ETY. of Harry B. SMITH and Ludwig Eng
lander, the former whiting the book
and lyrics and the latter the score. The
frolic had a long prosperous run in
New York, after which it was taken t.
London, where it duplicated it's success
there of the half dozen Lederer shows
that travelled the Atlc1tic ocean to re-
main for lengthy periods in English
playhouses. 1t is peopled with men
and women famous for varied power of
comic and lyric diversion. The most
prominent Of the male characters is that
of a German brewer, who goes to Egypt
to introduce his brew of beer, and after
a period of conviviality with the ruler
of the country is made a pasha, and it
is the iudicrous acts Of office Nrformed
by this individual that furnish the bas-
is for the pyramid of comics. A formal
light of the Casino stage popularized as
the Casino Girl" permits of the intro
duction of a charming love story, and
the remaining characters are those ne
cessary to the proper exploitation of an
up-to-date musical comedy. Mr.. Smith
who has laid the scenes of the piece in
modern Cairo, has selected a new field,
which is prolific in material for fresh
jokes and clever ca~ricatures.

The play ran for exactly 800 nights in

Shakespeare's plays have, with rare
exceptions, proven popular when ade-
quately presented by competent players.
The exceptions have generally tended
to prove this rule, although some man
ayers have been inclined to maintain
that they disproved it. There is no ar
gument so convincing as box Office re-
ceipts, however, and last season the
American public once more demonstrat-
ed that they were willing and ready to
pay good money to see Shakespeare's
plays, either with or without so-calIeG
star casts-preferably without. 1t is
probable that this demonstration on the
part of the public will result in their
getting better Shakespearean produc-
tions. Among this years newly organ-
lied companies we note with genuine
satisfaction that R. D. MacLean and
Miss 0dette Tyler will appear during
the season as joint stars in two Of
S~hakespeare's most interesting plays,
"Coriolanus' and King John" AS
Constance in King John" Miss Tyler
has a congenial role and one in which
she apears to complete advantage. Or.
MacLean's King John is an interesting
and mastery i~mpersonation. They will
be seen at the Opera House Thursday
evening.

shocking Turkish superstition.

Hanan, village on the borders of
Anatolia. in Turkey, was the scene of
a horrible tragedy few days ago.
There had been an epidemic in the
district for some weeks, and, as its
ravages ever became greater, the viii
layers finally felt satisfied that it was
the work of sorcerers, and. after a
thorough Investigation, they arrested
man named Asian and his sister and
openly charged them with being the
direct cause of the disease. The two
prisoners avowed their innocence. but
the mob insisted that they had been
using lamentations and other evil
spells, and that their sole object in
doing so was to invoke an epidemic.
Without delay sentence was pro-
nounced. Asian was burned alive on
an improvised scaffold, and his sister
was mercilessly tortured with red hot
irons.
News OF the shocking crime was at
once taken to the local authorities and
in few hours the principal instiga-
tors were arrested 1t is not believed
however. that this step will aid much
toward the eXtirpation of superstitieus
ideas in Hanan.

MYSTICAL ODD NUMBERS.
Three, Seven and Nine Have Many Fs-
cuiiarities to Their Credit.


Three, seven and nine appear to have
been the faxorite numbers all the
world over. The ancients had three
fates, three ftries and three graces;
NeYtune's trident had three prongs,
Jnpiter's tnunderbolt three forks and
Cerberus three heads We have three
estates of the realm, man who ac-
cepts bill has three days grace and
three persons congregated together
may make riot. Shakespeare was
well aware that he must have neither
more nor less than three witches in
Macbeth" and that the brindle cat
must NEW thrice, and our popular folk
lore insists upon three merry men,
three blind mice and three wise men OF
Gotham. Three meals a. day is the
usual scale of feeding aea
OF a more mystical character than
three is the figure seven, or. al any
rate, it has a larger number of re-
ligious applications Noah had seven
days warning of the coming OF the
food. and when it came he took fowls
by sevens and clean beasts by seyens
into the ark; the ark touched on
Mount Ararat in the seventh month,
and after seven days dove was sent
out. followed seven days afterward by
another. In Pharaoh's dream there
were seven fat and seven lean kline.
which Joseph interpreted to mean
seven years of plenty and seven years
of famine. At the destruction of Je-
richo seven priests bore seven trum-
/ pets seven days. and on the seventh
day they walked round the city seven
times, after which the walls fell. In
| the apocalypse almost everything is
| seven, except the number of beasts.
There are seven churches. seven gol-
den candlesticks, seven lamps before
seven spirits, the book with seven
seals, the lamb with seven horns and
seven eyes. seven angels with seven
seals, seven kings, seven thunders,
seven thousand slain, the dragon with
seven heads and seven crowns, seven
angels bring seven plaques, and there,
are seven walls of wrath.
In merely secular matters seven oc-
ours frequently enough. We have
seven wonders of the world, seven
champions of Christendom, seven
sleepers, seven wise men, seven plan
cts. seven deadly sins, seven ages Of
man, and our ordinary leases are made
for seven or multiple of seven years.
But however mystically significant
three and seven may be. they cannot
lay claim to any such peculiarities as
are the property of the figure nine.
That the ancients had nine muses.,
nine rivers in the internal regions, a
hydra with nine heads and nine gods
for Lars Porsena to swear by, or that
in modern times nine tailors to make a
man, or that possession is nine points
of the law, are facts that pale into in
significance after one has sat down
with pencil and paper to investigate
some of the special peculiarities of the
figure nine For instance, if you null
tiply nine by any other number you
will find that the figures composing
the product when added together will
always amount to nine.
