Secretary Wilson is firm believer in the development of the beet sugar industry of tho United States, and claims that. if properly protected and encouraged. we will be able to produce sufficient beet sugar to supply our own requirements with the assistance of the product from the cane industry of Louisiana and Texas. The fulhllment of this prophecy of Secretary Wilson Is far in the future, while we have a very pressing question confronting us with regard to our duty and obligation to Cuba The division among the Republicans in Congress on this question is so sharp and so wide, and the strength of the respective fac- tions so evenly balanced, that any di- vision In the Cabinet is certain to prove annoying to the President, and 1t is, therefore, surmised that. regardless of how the conflict now pending in tha House of Representatives may terminate.

ton in the properties Barrett would con tent himself with stool. The actor would never discuss the superstition and no one could explain it-this or any other superstition. as for that matter.
 Barrett was not only a trenchant writer, but he was a capital oftor-dinner speak CT. I heard him make a ten minute speech at a banquet in New York that was singularly felicitous. He told me that the best after-dinner orator that he ever heard, and he had listened to hundreds, was Gen. U. s. Grant. I never heard Grant, but I had never imagined that he had a gift for talking on his feet. Yet Barrett sketched him so finely and told of his strong points with such a glow that I thought maybe ne was right in the estimate Of his heros power of speech.
 Edwin Booth was a reserved man and always gentle and modest. He was con- siderate of the feelings of every person with whom he came in contact which is the true test of a gentleman. He was sometimes moody, but he was never so moody that he forgot his good manners. l was with nim in the green room once when he was in moody spell It was woeful. Booth was playing a spirited comedy part-PetruchIo, in Flaming of the Screw''-and he could not have acted better. But every time he came off the stage he was the picture of gloom.
 Booth did not like to be interviewed for the press, but I induced him to submit" on more than one occasion.
 (Which do you prefer, tragedy or come- dy roles? I asked.
 Well, had not thought of that ques- tion," he replied. When I am playing tragedy I like tragedy and when I am playing comedy I like comedy"
 What do you think of Hamlet psy- chologically considered?"
 'I would not care to venture an opinion. I take 1t for granted that the psychology is all roght. Talking psychology is not in my line. I try to act the part acceptable and leave the psychology of it to the critics.
 How are you on superstitions?"
 Now you have struck @ topic that I like. I am superstitious and l do not at- tempt to conceal the fact. I feel sure that a yellow clarinet in the orchestra will bring trouble that singing, or whistling or humming the Macbeth music outside of the performance or the rehearsal by a member of the company means sor- row; and that IS people on the stage at one time would be fatal. It is in the na- ture of actors to be superstitious."
 Booth loved to help a fellow actor. Fred Warde related an incident that was characteristic. q was playing my first engagement with Booth in 1876, having the part of leading man. said Warde. At the end of the season, I was without money enough to carry me through the summer. went to MT. Booth and told my tale of woe. I asked him to lend me $250, to be returned sometime in the fall. He was at his desk. He listened to me and then in his quiet way said: You want s250, but wouldn't $500 do just as well? :? And with that this big hearted friend wrote his check for S500.'

Hamlet" was the first Shakespeare play I ever saw and Lawrence Barrett appeared in the title role. It was in the old Richmond Theater, a sombre and his- toric building which was pulled down ten or twelve years ago to give place to a large department store. MT. Barrett thrilled me, and as I had seen no other actor in great tragedy with whom to compare him. was satifed that he could not be surpassed. But when I saw Ed win Booth in Hamlet" two or three years later, I never cared to see Barrett again as the melancholy Dane. Barrett was a student and became in time schol- arly man, but Booth was always the ideal actor.
 I cannot go back to Edwin Forrest, but I saw Charlotte Cushman in several plays and during twenty years, from about 1875 to 1895, saw all the histrionic stars In the United States and England of that period. many of them in their entire rep- ertoire. What ruffled me in my early days of theater-going was when l would grow enthusiastic over my favorite ac- tors to have some old habitue of the play house say, "Ah, but you never saw the elder Booth" Remembering how much I was irritated and bored by the re- marks of men who lived in the past and who could see little to admire in the newer stars I will be careful to refrain from putting the footlight celebrities who have died or left the profession In my time above those who are popular to- day. While 1 have not seen half dozen plays in a half dozen years l feel sure that the men and women who are gain Ing applause now are, with a few eX- captions, equal to those whose names were familiar twenty or twenty-five years ago.
 What I started to tell about was the green room side of the theater and of the interviews I had with the stars of the eighties. From 1880 until 1886 I had a newspaper assignment to write stories about actors and actf esses. In order to accomplish this task 1 spent my nights behind the scenes and in cafes eating late suppers with leading dramatic peo- pie.
 I found it easy to get interviews and chum with most of the distinguished in- dividuals of the stage. Those who were il-bred or unfriendly were very few in number. 1t took time to get close to Lawrence Barrett. He had the reputation of holding aloof alike from reporters and the common herd. But after I got into his good graces and met him in the homes Of mutual friends I became attached to him. He was a luminous talker and a good man. But he was extremely ner- vous and behind the scenes ne was often petulant. All actors are noted for be- lieving in certain superstitions. One that l recall in Barrett was in relation to his dressing room chair. If he found a chair with the back supports up and down like the spol1es of a wheel, which is or- dinary in the construction of common chairs he would not only have it taken cut of his room, but was quite unstrung. He could hardly say his lines when it was his time to act. He demanded for his dressing room an old fashioned chair with the back supports placed horizontal ly. If there was no chair of that descrip-

Throughout the volume there are many beautiful descrip- tive passages and many pathetic incl dents. The story is told in blank verse; and is pronounced very strong and dram attic. A well known critics writes that 1t would be filter Ito cali this poem an idyl than to describe it as either heroic or epic.

"The Giants Gate" by Max Pemberton, will no doubt be classed among the strongest of latter day books, for the authors style is so forceful, so striking, that it naturally lends even greater strength to a plot that Is very stirring, a plot that has for It's background that 1 Paris that was proclaiming, "Vivi r Armee Vivi la France!' Those days when no man dared to say aloud that Dreyfus was innocent when the name of Esterhazy was scarce known in Lon don, when Zolo had accused no one and Mercier had yet to become the Grand h. Quisitor.
 The author only introduces Jules Da- vignon, the young general of the French army, and through the entire book in- terest centers about Davignon, the young idol of Paris, and whom France regard ed as the cleverest general in the army. Was it not Davignon who had first said that the army of Germany lived on the methods of Moltke and that the methods of Moltke were dead. In the moment of crisis when the English Premier, Rose bery, had been as the Figaro put it, with in twenty hours of war with France, Da- vignon had publicly mocked the hoary- headed theory that if there were twenty ways of getting into England there was but one way out These theories of Da- vignon, the author considers of sufficient importance to mark the French general striking figure in those days of na- tional hysteria.
 The author devotes several chapters tN ho of ahY,aa arfv hoof constructed by a young Frenchman and whose secret was stolen by Felix Bargia. a Russian scientist.
 Davgnon accompanies the lad in the submarine ooat from Cologne to the gateway of England There are thrilling chapters of Frances excitement over the fall of Khartoum. the talk of war, the supreme calamity. Davignon, bidding goodby to the English woman whom he loves, goes back to France.
 Gradually the intrigues of Davignon against the government are unfolded and gradually the shadows close upon his hopes.
 At Longchamps," says Davignon, I've are going to ask Paris if she wishes the Kings death. She will answer aye oI nay The one word may send me to the Elysee, the other-God knows! But it will be amusing. Admit as much"
 The subsequent arrest or DaVignOn, his trial at Versailles, his punishment from France furnish dramatic material for the succee ling chapters. And while the story IS one of the army of France, of grave matters in Frances history a beautiful romance illumines the whole book, the devotion between Davignon and Kathlene.
 A years imprisonment in the fortress of Beleort, to be followed by punishment from France was the sentence of the French court of justice.

Many Cabinet Chances.

Washington Letter to Philadelphia Public
 Ledger.
 The retirement of Secretary Long leaves one member of the Cabinet originally see lected by President McKinley-James Wilson, Secretary of Agriculture. Of Me- Kinley's original Cabinet, Sherman was succeeded in the State Department by MT. Day, who in turn was succeeded by John Hay; McKenna was succeeded in the department of justice by MT. Griggs who gave place to MT Knox; Aller went out from the war department, and was followed by Root; Bliss left the interior department, and was succeeded by MT. Hitchcock; Gary. who was postmaster general, was followed by Charles Emory Smith, who gave way to MT. Payne; Gage recently vacated the treasury, and was followed by MT. Shaw. Since President Roosevelt assumed office there have been three changes in the cabinet, those retil Ing having been mem bers of the cabinet of President Mckinley. The first to retire was Postmaster General Smith. who was followed by Secretary Gage, who in turn is to be followed by Secretary Long.
 It is not improbable that other changes will follow before the close of the calen- dar year. There have been from time to time intimations that Secretaries Hitch cock and Wilson would retire, but such intimations have been speedily followed by positive denials from the two officials named or by their friends. Recently con ditions have arisen which may make 1t necessary for MT. Wilson to retire.
