Royalties in France.

The dramatic author in France is liber-
ally treated in the matter of royalties. Ac-
cording to the Figaro the majority of the
Paris theaters pay. from 10 to 20 per cent
Of the gross receipts. At the Opera per
cent is paid at the Coincide Francois sc 10
per cent The total of royalties paid by the
theaters of Paris amounts to about 5000, 900
francs year In the provinces the royalty
is usually per cent and the annual pay
ment about 100000 francs. Roughly spsak-
ing, therefore, French playwrights make
between 100000 and 100000 a year. On
the other hand, this is divided up among
many. Long runs are the exception to the
rule, run of 100 nights being extraordin-
airy.
Aside from Sardou, much of whose wealth
has come from foreign countries, the only
writers who have been making large sums
of money in the last few years are probably
Capus and ROstand, and neither of them
Is likely to have made 50 much as for eX-
ample, Fitch. In England Pinero Jones
and Phillips have made the most money
among the dramatists of the higher grade,
but their returns Will probably not COM
pare with those of such men as the writers
of certain popular musical pieces and the
Drury Lane spectacles and melodramas

THE QUEST OF BEAUTY
Diana May Keep Her Peach

BUT TAKES DAILY CARE
IF ONE WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL

Suggestions More or Less Practical
That May Help to This
End.

Sunburn and tan on her ps ach bloom cheek
and freckies on the tip Of her precious nose
are not joys forever to Dana. To be sure,
She has been read lectures innumerable on
the cosmetic value of air and sunshine, and
both in their way are all well enough; she
cannot get too much of them, but tan and
f!eck!es must be dealt with, even if heroic
me- assures are necessary.
1t is pity that we cannot revel in sun
shine to our hearts content, without a
thought of damage to our compleXtons, for
the effect of sunshine is not merely thermal,
to warm and TO raise the heat Of the body;
it's rays have chemical and electrical func-
tons. 1t is more than possible, so we are
told, that sunshine produces vibrations
and changes Of particles in the deeper It's
sues of the body as effective those Of
electricity. The sun is one of the most
efficient of all surgical methods in the treat
n,ent of morbid growths as warts, moles
small veins, and all parasitical skin DIS
eases; indoent and eating ulcers and cap
Hilary aneurisms.
Some years ago a London physician, by
using the suns rays, presumably with a
lens, removed wine mark from lady S
face, and destroyed a malignant growth IN
the same way. No doubt there is a cura-
tive power in the chemical rays of the sun
and that it reiuvenates.
Although fully approaching sunshine and
all that it does for US, al this season, it
seems necessary for us to go to work to
counteract some of its mischief wrought
upon nose and cheek, which we may dis
count by a trick or two of our own. There
are plenty Of beauty preservers and re-
Storers close at hand. The eVer-healing
cucumber is worth a whole shop full of
drugs One has only to look through the
list of the most expensive toilet luxuries to
find that rghtfully cucumber preparations
hold an important and expensive place.
The crisp state suited for table use is not
the proper condition for cosmetic purposes.
When turning yellow and soft and spongy
is the right time to use them.
Easy to Have Now.
It is well to keep thick slices of cucum-
Der on the toilet table, and occasionally
after washing face, hands and neck rub
with the cucumber, rinsing with clear wa
ter afterward. This relieves any irritation
of the skin caused by sunburn and makes
the flesh smooth soft and white. 1t is more
convenient, perhaps, to have a cucumber

once for governor and once for President.
have carried Maryland twice for President
audience for governor, have twice carried
Delaware, and apparently have established
permanent hold on West Virginia. Taking
the country by and large, indeed they have
shown extraordinarily good management
and met with extraordinary rewards.
Now what has been the matter during all
this time with the republicans of Tennessee? :?
Why have they gone back so in achieve
ments? What explains the change from
that majority for H. Clay Evans to this
latest democratic majority of fifty-five
thousand? Why has not the spirit Of re-
publicanism grown in Tennessee as 1t has
elsewhere. and in Tennessee's immediate vi
cinity? This latest democratic majority is

explains their decline and fall OFF," Has
their organization gone down as the result
of neglect? Have they failed to contest

Deveryism is Tammanyism.

The severest terms that are being ap-
piled to Deveryism are just. 1t is a most
odious thing. But it is no new thing. 1t is
simply Tammanyism in it's old familiar
form. New York has known it for years.
Twice In the past twenty years 1t has as
sisted in the election of President of the
United States. Mr.. Croker built himself up
politically by the same means that Mr.. Dew
cry is employing. To corral the gang, and
admit the boys free 10 the lunch and
booze counters as election day approach
es. is all the law and the prophets known
to Tammany Hall. Mr.. Devery is simply
trying now to do for himself what he has
often done for others. He has grown rich,
and ambition fires his bosom Why, he
asks himself, should he not set up in bust
ness on his own account? Why continue to
work for others? Why not become a boss
politician as Mr.. Croker did some fifteen
years ago?
Some of the outcry in New York Is wholly
hypocritical. Men who have worked hand
and glove with Mr. Devery by methods
Identical with those he is now using, and
were glad to profit by his activity are pre-
tending at present to be greatly shocked at
the revelations concerning him. Then he
was working under cover. Now the white

Graves. They we'll understand that even If
beaten he will continue in his present af
fliations and do for others what he has
failed to do for himself.
New York can get rid of Deveryism, but
not by an attack simply on Mr.. Devery
He Is neither better nor worse than those
with whom he herds. This copying of the
methods of Fagin is unworthy of even q
New York ward. Mr.. Devery, for years
faithfully brought the political wipes" and
the purses he had gathered in on his rounds
to Tammany Hall, and then he was a great
fellow. But now that the Artful Dodger
wants to establish a business of his own,
some of the Tammanyites are calling the
police. Until the fight takes wider range
than at present marks 1t. the public can
have but small stake in the result. Tam
manyism should be the objective.

General Cronje's Return.

General Cronje has reached home from ST.
Helena and announces a complete acquies-
cence in the new order of things In South
Africa. He joins hands thus with his old
comrades, Generals Botha, De Wet and De-
larey, and will add to the influences that
are making for progress in that country.
We may we'll believe that with the aid of
these men, the British will be able to es-
tablish a strong and workable government

which it represents. The start is good, and

The Presidents Serious Danger.

Despite his escape from injury the dan
ger to which the President was exposed
this morning shocks the people severely
He was too close to death for national COM
fort. The time. too. is sadly suggestive.
for three days from today will occur the
first anniversary of the shooting of Presi-
dent Mckinley.
The accident at Pittsfeld was serious
enough in itself, however, to cause deep
sorrow. one of the men whose duty it is
to guard the President from harm was
himself killed, while Mr.. Cortelyou. the
Presidents secretary, was severely bruised
and shocked. The collision between the
drag occupied by the presidential party and
the trolley car was evidently a severe one,
and that any of the occupants of the for
mer escaped alive is a marvel for which
the country is thankful.
This mishap brings more pointedly to
view than ever before the peril which is
hourly run by the innocent as a result of
the careless operation of suburban trolley
lines Just as in the case of automobiles,
these electric lines have of late been un-
doing all the good work which required
many years 10 accomplish in the eradica-
tton of railroad grade crossings. The course
of settlement is outward from the cities at
a rapid rate. There are few stretches of
what is known as open country in New
England, save in the remote mountain dis
tricts and the more northerly parts of
Maine. All along the Atlantic coast the
country is yielding to the city invasion
The roads are becoming streets The in
tersections of these highways with trolley
lines are more dangerous today than were
the old unguarded railroad crossings, for
the trolley cars run more frequently than
the steam trains and there is less care in
their operation. No gates guard the cross
ings, no precautions are taken to prevent
accident.
Perhaps the Presidents imminent peril
will teach the long-delayed lesson that the
roads must be made safer. even at vast
expense. 1t should not require the menace
of the country's foremost citizen with
death at the crossings to enforce the truth,
however. Yet, now that the country has
been spared only by a shade so fine that 1t
suggests the Intervention of Providence
from an unspeakable tragedy the trolley
peril may be recognized and corrected.
The nations thanks are given for the
preservation of the President from death.
Mr. Roosevelt does not shrink from danger.
He has always been on the firing line" as
regards his personal safety. He assumed
no special risk in choosing to ride in
tally-ho this morning, and with due pre-
caution by the crew of the trolley car or
perhaps by the driver Of the coach there
would have been no accident The affair
should be most carefully investigated to
ascertain the blame and the responsible
person OF persons punished for their reck-
lessnes5 which exposed the President to the
danger Of instant death.

The Hilton Trophy Lost.

Victory did not crown the District rifle
mems efforts, after all, in the shoot for the
Hilton trophy at Sea Girt, bright as were
the preliminary signs of success. Yet their
defeat was by no means disheartening. They
shot very well, better indeed than year
ago, exceeding their record breaking score
which won the trophy then by two points.
But there were other record breakers, the
New York team. which made the extraordi-
nary score of Lbs and won the match and
the New Jersey team. which stood second
with 1.123. So it appears that the District
rifiemen were in very fast company, and
the margin between them and the leaders
indicates that they held up well with the
procession. even If they did not win. 1t is
to be remembered that they shot under
some difficulties. having lost three Of their
best men during the year and that one of
these men was on the New Jersey team.

The Tennessee Republicans.

that the democratic majority will be at

Since then the republicans elsewhere have
