duction of THE Manxman," Wednes-
day night, the sale of seats for which

the purveyors of artistic productions.
1.-THE Christian" James O'Neill's
Monte Cristo," Kyrle Bellows "A
Gentleman of France" of last season,
and now THE Eternal City" and THE
Manxman," the last named being the
play which Savannah theatergoers are
to see. Mr.. ONeill in the leading role,
is list to be proud of and one to be
talked about. There is always an
abundance of satisfaction in the con-
temptation of the coming of Liebler
production. The prices for Mr.. ONeill's
engagement are: Orchestra, $3.50 and
$780, balcony, $1.0O, rs and so cents.
Henri, one of the characters in IAN
Eye for an Eye" which Miss Kathryn
Kidder will present Thursday matinee
and night, is in love with the young
and pretty Countess Annette. He
learns suddenly that his adored one,
despite her rank, can cook with the
skill of a culinary college girl. Sur
prised, he asks her what her aim was
in mastering the code of the kitchen.
There is world of philosophy in An
nette's answer-a philosophy that,
though written by Dumas, might well
be written by the majority of woman
kind. II learned to cook" she says,
las l learned to read, to write, to draw,
to play the piano, to speak English and
German, to sing in Italian, to ride
horseback, to skate, to hunt, to dance
all with the aim of-finding a hus-
band. Everything that young women
do is for that" The sale of seats for
Miss Kidder's play will open Tuesday
morning. The matinee prices are 10
and so cents; night prices $3.50, $1O0,
so and rs cents.
Eff1e Ellsler, who will be seen Friday
night in when Knighthood Was in
Flower" is favorite actress with Sa-
vannah theatergoers. She sprang into
favor as Hazel Kirke," when the
Frohmans first presented the play.
Since then she has been seen here in
many plays. Princess Mary Tudor,
whom Miss Ellsler will present Friday
night, was the grandmother of that ILL
fated Lady Jane Grey, who was a
nine-day's queen of England. Mary's
daughter, Frances, married Henry
Grey, Earl of Dorset. OF their two
children one was Lady Grey. History
has always marvelled at the eagerness
of Mary to contract an alliance with
the Commoner Duke of Suffolk after
she had sat upon the throne of France.
But 1t requires no deep insight into her
time to understand that in following
the dictates of her heart she chose a
happier course than that of her bril-
liant and beautiful grandchild. whose
ambition brought her to the block
Seats for Miss Ellsler's production will
go on sale Wednesday morning at $3.50;
balcony, $1.00, rs and so cents, and gal

OF this sum the Pennsylvania budget

EQUIPMENT DEMANDS
BREAK RECORD.

The demand for railroad equipment
continues heavy, and manufacturers
believe the volume of business during
the current year will establish new
record. The American Car and Foun-
dry Company, the Pressed Steel Car
Company, the Standard Car Company
the American Locomotive Works the
Baldwin Locomotive Works and the
steel rail mills have more unified or
ders on their books than ever before
in history AS a result of the extra
ordinary demand nearly every concern
engaged in the manufacture of mate
rial that enters into railroad construc-
ton will add to it's capacity this year.
The United States Steel Corporation
will greatly enlarge the capacity of its
still plate and rail manufacturing
mills. The Pressed Steel Car Com
pany and the American Car and Foun-
dry Company will also increase their
output.
The increase in the output OF steel
rails last year was equivalent to about
90 per cent, and it is expected the IN
crease this year will be equally as
large. The Standard Steel Car Com
pany announces that the Lackawanna
and the Illinois Central had ordered
/ 900 box cars The American Loco
motive Company announces an order
for twenty-five locomotives from the
Chesapeake and Ohio, and twenty
from the Boston and Maine.
The Rock Islands order for
225 locomotives was placed some
time ago other orders recently
received by the big railroad
equipment concerns are from the Ia
coma Eastern, the Wabash, the Della
ware and Hudson, the Kansas City,
Mexico and Orient, and the Pennsylva-
MIA Company. The heavy business OF
the concerns manufacturing railroad
equipment is reflected in the earnings
of the American Car and Foundry
Company, which exceeded SO,OOOOOO
during the last fiscal year

OLD BUILDINGS GIVING WAY.
Brick Block to Go Up at Perry and
West Broad Streets.

Drlck bkock 10 80 Up AT Ferry ma
West broad Streets.
Within few days two more old
landmarks will have been obliterated.
In their place a substantial brick block
of more imposing appearance and of
greater value to the future business
and commercial interests of the city
will be erected.
The old buildings are the rocker
les at the corner of West Broad and
Perry streets. When they were built
there is probably not person in Sa-
vsnnah old enough to remember. This
was the opinion of several people who
were seen yesterday. and who have
no knowledge of their erection,
only knowing that the structures were
there at their earliest recollection and
had, even then. seen many years of
service.
Mr.. Nose A. Solomon is tearing
them down, to give room to a hand
some three-story block, which will be
erected on the site by Mr.. ]. c. Slater,
owner of the property, and who pur-
chased 1t about three years ago from
the Ferrill estate.
The cellars and first story of the old
structures are Oh DTIEhs the second
floors and attics being of white pine
wood Even to the laths holding the
plaster of the walls are of white pine
and are hand rived. The stills, joist and
other framing material are of the same
kind of wood, hand dressed and put
together with tenant pins of wood in
the place of rails, not nail being used
in the heavy wood work. Most of the
material was first mortified together,
the pins being used to make the fas-
tenfng secure. Even to the floors,
weather boarding, doors and blinds are
of white pine, and strange to say every
piece of lumber so far taken out of
the old buildings, is in a perfect state
of preservation.
The nails Used in the light wood
work of the houses in themselves are
shorter and heavier than the more
modern nails, and according to Mr..
Solomon are of home manufacture.
The mantle pieces are also unique
and interesting. They are likewise of
white pine wood, with many fancy
Fosettes. pillars and other trimmings
