Defling Nature.

The pleasure to be found in a drive
or a walk along the country roads
leading to Minneapolis is often marred
by the sight of huge dumps of scrap
iron, tin cans, old shoes and other
rubbish, that have been thrown into
the courses of streams and on the
shoes of lakes and marshes. The re-
movers Of such rubbish seem to have
taken agreat. delight in dumping the
stuff just where it would be sure to
offend. The shores Of Diam ond lake
are thus defiled.
Another instance of carelessness and
recklessness in this respect is to be
found at Minnehaha Park. Much of
the rubbish of the Soldiers Home,
such as tin cans and refuse build
ing material, has been thrown over the
edge of the cliff and has converted
that portion Of the beautiful Mime
haha gorge into the likeness Of a dirty
back yard.
We do not know who is responsible
for this defilement, but either the Sol
diers' Home authorities or park au-
thorities should take steps at once to
have this bluff cleaned up, and see to
it that the beautiful ravine is no long
err used as a convenient dumping place
for whatever it is desired to- get out
of sight on top of the hill.

AT THE THEATERS
etropoitan-Percy HasWeIl Sin 'tRomeo
and Juliet"

>
To say that Percy Hasweu and her as.
sociates of the George Fawcett company
are equal to the demands made by Shak-
spores immortal love tragedy, Romeo
and Juliet" would be overgenerous praise.
1t is a band Of capable stage folk, YER
satile and entertaining, but it falls far
short Of being able to portray the intense
human emotions which the dramatist
crowds into every scene. The play has been
called an ideal love story, but it is equal
ly deep and fearful tragedy, and calls
for the highest dramatic skill. Judged by
the great companies Of the past, the
performance Of last evening was unsatis-
factory, but at the same time the COM
pany as whole and the members indi-
vidually deserve appreciation for their
earnest and intelligent. efforts.
The story, with it's wide range of emo
lions, was intelligently developed and
the interest sustained to the end. Miss
Haswell, always charming, was most
lovable and sWeetly affectionate Juliet,
Regain Hughston was manly and ardent
lover and both were good to look upon.
If they failed to depict the intensity of
passion, their work was of a high order
and reaped well -merited applause.
The role of Friar Laurence was better
handled than ordinarily by George Schrae-
der. 1t is a part that is usually neglected,
but Mr. Schraeder brought it up to the
prominence it deserves. AS a character
Molly Brady was excellent. In Dewitt
Jennings Mercutio found a, vivacious and
high spirited delineator. Some Of the
other players were satisfactory, particu-
larry Alfred Hudson, Jr., as Paris and
Edwin Evans as Tybalt. But at best
SHAKESPEARE is rather trying for. the aver
age stock company.

We are going to have an agitation now
as to the abolition Of the grade crossing.
It is understood that the matter will
come up in the council tonight in the
shape of an ordinance to abolish all grade
crossings, the work to be completed with
in five years. Old residents will remem-
Der the discussion of this question of
grade crossings which finally resulted in
the bridges over Fourth avenue N about
seventeen or eighteen years ago, and later
the lowering of the Great Northern t1hcks
on the East Side. Elevated or depressed
crossings are expensive and involve con-
siderable damage to property, but they
insure the safety of life as well as expe-
dite traffic, and these matters are of SO
much Importance that they are bound to
have first consideration. The problem
is a large one and will involve great ex-
pense, and should be very carefully and
exhaustively studied before any plan is
adopted.
