When a new production can achieve
a continuous run outside the metropolis
il must possess more than ordinary merit.
Yet that is precisely what Willard Spen-
ser's new comedy opera. Miss Bob
White did in Philadelphia. More than
that: its run carried il far into the torrid
spell aud the audience at the closing per-
Torrance was fully as large as at the
opening. 1t is not at all improbable that
IL could have still been running smoothly
along in the city OF Brotherly Love if the
attempt had been made. Miss Bob
White" will be seen in this city at the
Colonial Theatre on Monday, Dec. 2Sth,
and the same elaborate production that
tickled the theatrical palates in Phila-
delphia will be on view during its local
engagement. No attempt at curtailment
in any particular will be made. The
gorgeously picturesque scenery, the
beautiful kaleidoscope dresses, the brill
liant, sparkling electric and calcium
effects, all will be seen here just the same
as il Miss Bob White" was to remain
among US indefinitely. That MIR. Spen-
ser's melodious musical score will receive
Just treatment cannot be doubted as
Messrs. Nixon & Zimmerman with their
accustomed liberal management have
supplied the most important component

and chorus of go. The story of Miss
Bob White" revolves around an election
bet made by two young mIllionaires and
the loss of which compels them to mas

nom de plume assumed by the sweet
heart of one of the young men who fol-

DISAPPEARING BIRDS.
Magic Trick Of the Little California

IN the New York Tribune.

From the New York Tribune.
Young birds have to be taught a great

they know without instruction. In a large
open air cage in the New York Geological
Park is a covey of six California patridges.

the range or walks slowly about pecking
among the blades of grass The small
sextet keep close together and If We watch
them for several minutes we will see some
Of the things which must have come to
them as their feathers and little bills came
from the egg. Unlike the hen they are
suspicious of your every movement, but in
short time they forget that you are not
lifeleSs tree trunk or other harmless object
near their cage. They select sunny spot,
always on the dead leaves, never on the
green grass, and here, after much cuddling
and pushing, but never peep. they squat,
usually in an irregular circle with heads
outward. Unless there are dead leaves or
some similarly colored surface In their cage,
they never settle down contentedly for a
sun bath.
We watch them nestle close to the ground
and close their eyes; then some movement
on the part of the hen may attract our
attention for moment, and, on looking
PACK again, we are amazed to find the lit
tie birds have disappeared. 1t is a fact
that II we lose sight Of them even for a
short time, the eye at first refuses to dis
tinguish them from the dried leaves. Their
h--.e backs are dull, dark brown in color,
broken by irregular fine white lines. very
much like the mold lines on fallen leaves.
while the lighter sides Of the head, instead
of being at all conspicuous, are exactly like
the lighter shades of some old leaves, the
Imitation being more perfect from the fact
OF the coloring being thus broken up. Even
the little brush of upraised feathers In their
head-hints of the beautiful recurved he'll
NETS Of the old birds-appear like small,
rrayed out pieces OF grass or, leaf.
II we look toward them with half-closed
eyes not trace of the birds is visible. All
appear sound asleep, and the little heads
sag drowsily to one side, but at the slight
est noise each hack bead Of an eye is wide
open, and six scurrying pairs Of legs, CT
rounded, swhirrtng wings. carry their own
ers to the further side Of the cage. as if an
unfelt wind had suddenly caught up some
of the dead leaves before us and tossed
them along the ground. 1t is all beautiful
Bit of magic. which never becomes less
wonderful. no matter how many times we
witness it.

The Universal Apple.

From Country Life In America.
The latest estimate places the total num-
Der Of apple trees Of bearing age in the
United States at something over 10000, 600.
This is nearly three trees to every person.
These trees yield more than 175OOO,0Oo
bushels. Not all these apples are consumed
at home, for in years Of full crop more than
100000 bushels go abroad. Yet, the APP
pies kept at home are more than two BUSH
els for every adult and child. We are a
nation Of apple eaters. This fact may not
be to our credit. however, when we remem-
Der that good part of all these apples are
Ben Davis and other kinds that a refined
and cultivated taste would not choose for
its dessert Yet probably half our people
never raise an apple; and of The half who
do raise them but small percentage grows

market, only part make profit from the
business. Yet there is money in apple
growing.
