THE EARL OF PAWTTc cKET.''.

THE EARL OF P.AWTTCKET.''
 The history of ''The Earl of Paw tucllet." which is to have a single pre- sentation at Polls on Tuesday evening, is. a startling commentary on the un- certainties of the theatrical business, and how difficult it is for even the most experienced managers to judge from q manuscript how q play will be received by the public. Augustus Thomas, it's author, is also the author of 'tArizona" and of "Colorado,' one of the biggest successes and most gi- gantic failures. respectively, which have been seen in New York in many years. When he wrote Arizona Ire took it to certain manager and asked him to produce it. The manager sent it back with the opinion that it would never draw a dollar. After a number of other managers had endorsed the opinion Of the first one, Kirke La ShelIe produced it, and is credited to have taken from it nearly quarter of a million dollars Then MT Thomas wrote Colorado" and the manager who had first refused Arizona bought it without even reading it. This was a colossal failure Then MT Thomas wrote "The Earl of Paw tucket'' and to give 'Colorado's'' man. ager 2 chance to get back his losses offered him "The Earl.'' He refused it with scorn. Once more Kirke La Shelle backed his faith in his own judgment of the manuscript with the result that be has already acquired q profit of about 'S15OOOO, with fully that much more to come before the vogue of "The Earl" is exhausted

Another of Theodore Kremer's suc- cesses will be offered in "A Desperate Chance Monday evening at Polls. This play is wrought out from the story of the notorious Riddle brothers in and about Pittsburg and naturally with such a story to draw from abounds in thrilling incidents. It is sensational in the extreme and thrill ing even to those who are most exact ing in this respect.

Commissioner of Agriculture A. W.
Gilman was at the State House, on a
vacation from the fairs yesterday. He
reports that never in his knowledge
have the fairs been so largely attended
and the agricultural exhibits been 50
good. Perhaps the fine weather has
had good deal to do with this, but he
attributes ii largely to the fact that the
farming population are waking up to
their own possibilities and their own in
tereSts. He mentioned particularly the
Hartland and the Piscataquis county
fairs. At the latter, which was held on
Friday and Saturday of last week, the
stock exhibit was by far the best ever
shown in that county. The exhibit of
horses in front of the stand was mag
niticent Mr.. Hall showed number
OF horses, the best of which was his
three year old Percheron weighing 1850
pounds. one of the most perfect block
horses in New England. 1t was raised
in Indiana, on big stock farm All
the hall exhibits were first class, and
one of the most interesting was that of
the I. OF NJ experiment station given
by Professor Wood of Orono. The
progressive farmers in attendance kept
him busy answering questions about
scientific farming.
