''IDYLLS OF THE KING
This Beautiful Lyric Cycle to Be
Read by Mrs. Charles Mead Holt
in Her First Minneapolis Appear

Minneapolis is recognized as q place
in which there Is much interest in dra-
matte study and in which excellent oppor-
tun1t1es are afforded for good work. Among
the teachers contributing largely to this
condition are Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Mead
Holt, whose joint work is very interest
ing, the combination OF masculine and
feminine ideas, qualities and methods
being very advantageous, especially In
dramatic coaching. Mr.. and Mrs. Holt
have taken up much of the work formerly
conducted by Clayton D. Gilbert, who went
this fall to the Emerson College Of Ora
tory. AS they had worked with Mr.. Gill
bert In Minneapolis and were graduates
Of the Emerson college, they were in a
position to step into his work satisrac-
torily. So,
Since coming to Minneapolis neither has
appeared publicly to any extent, but both
are planning to do so this season, as both
have taste for platform work and an
extended experience. The first Of the
faculty recitals Of the Johnson School Of
Music, Oratory and Dramatic Art on
Tuesday will practically be Mrs. Hollis in
production to Minneapolis audiences. She
will read Elaine" from Tennyson's 'Idylls
of the King" The reading will be in three
parts, Meeting of Launcelot and Elaine, y
Love and Death of Elaine" and Burial
OF Eld1le. = Between the parts MISS Ednah
Hall will sing Incidental songs, settings
of Tennyson's lyrics Home They Brought
Her Warrior Dead and "Elaine's Song =
The closing number will be a little comedy,
Married Life, by Mr.. and Mrs. Holt.
The cutting Of Elaine which Mrs. Holt
is to use in this program is but part of a
more extended reading giving in a con-
nected narrative the story Of King Arthur,
Queen Guinevere, and Launcelot. With
the complete reading will be given Sir
Arthur Sullivan's incidental music for
piano and violin with the Incidental songs.
The great charm of this cycle is its beau
tiful lyric quality. It has the fascination
of a story Of which the world never tires
and the lovely lines In which Tennyson' s
art excelled. ##,

good plan for even blood relation to take
liberties an Mr.. Cannin's man foun' his
limits. A man may be useful, but he isn't
indispensable, an mos any one can be
replaced nowadays, seems if. It's a
good plan to stop an think of that occa-
sionally, for it'll keep one doin' their
work as they ought to.

line. There was a good many Of EN-, I'll
admit, but when mans got seventeen
pairs of pants it's a sign he won't give
any to a mans who's only got two. James,
that's the man, had to brush 'ern an hunt
moths through the linin's an the pockets.
When he got through an every one was
on the line, it did look as if Mr.. Cannin'
had vested a good deal in coats an vests
an pants not to mention overcoats, but
that's between him an his tailor.

REPORT IS WELL FOUNDED
Win Probably Land on Block Island Believes MT. Morgan Has AL ready Turned System Over
 to Atlantic Coast Line.

Baltimore, July 27.-It Is impossible to obtain an authoritative expression or opinion on the statement that negotia- tions are pending looking to the absorp- tion by the Atlantic Coast Line of the Louisville and Nashville. which Is con- trclled by J. P. Morgan & Co., In f1nan- cial circles here ti.s general impression prevails that the report is well founded.
 q think MT. Morgan has already prac- tically turned the road over to the Coast Line," said a member of one of the lead ing banking firms. The two roads do not parellel anywhere and have a physical connection at Augusta, Ga, through the Georgia railroad. which runs rom At lanta to Augusta, and which is leased jointly by them.
 "Such a deal would eliminate that hos til1ty in Tennessee and Kentucky which has been aroused by the rumor that the Louisville and Nashville will be merged with the Southern railway. These roads parallel and are competitors in both states, and following the report Gov crnor McMillin Of Tennessee has threat ened to call a special session of the leg islature to pass law that would pre- vent a merger. It is thought that when MT. Morgan purchased the Louisville and Nashville he had in view it's transfer to the Coast Line.
 Morgan & Co. manage the Southern Railway and have been working in com plete harmony with the Coast Line. The absorption of the Louisville and Nashville would give the Coast Line control of the railroad situation In the southeast of the Mississippi river"
 The outstanding stock of the Louisville and Nashville amounts to Seo.O0OOOO and if the plan of Morgan & Co. to pay $15O share for 1t is carried out ssO 900 0O0 will be required to complete the deal.
 In round numbers the combined mileage of the coast line system and the Louis- vile and Nashville Is 9400.
 Henry Walters and Michael Jenkins, who control the affairs of the Cost Line, are out of the city Mir. Walters Is thought to be in New York and would likely conduct the negotiations with MT. kins left Baltimore Thursday with his family for the White mountains.
 Mir. Walters is vice-president of the Coast Line railroad company and present president of the parent company. MT. Jenkins Is a director of the former and president cf the later. Waldo Newcomer, another Coast Line official. is away on his vacation.
