thirty years and keeping his court phy- stefan in constant dread of violent death if he does not discover for him the elixir of youth. A young soldier of fortune, Pi- ola, has had the temerity to fall in love with the kings ward, Angela, and pro- poses to marry her. To this King Dodo objects most strenuously, for she is the apple of his eye, and he intends to ac- quire youth himself and marry the young lady, until Piola promises to take him to a fountain which will make him young again.
 The second act of the comedy finds all of the interested persons in Spoopjuland which is ruled by a queen of surpassing loveliness. who announces that she will marry none but an old man of experience. When Dodo l. and his entourage, are takens before her as prisoners, she sees In him the man she has been waiting for and, as she pleases Dodo's fancy, the wooing speeds right merrily until con- spiracy is matched and Dodo Is given a drink from a spring which Is, indeed, a veritable fountain of youth. Presto, the old king is transformed into boy. This pleases Dodo, but the queen will have none of him. Again. the conspirators come to the rescue, for, with the idea of drowning the favorite they throw him in the same spring and by its marvellous powers he is again transformed into the decrepit old monarch he was when the queen of the spoopju people lost her heart to him. Dodo Is of a forgiving disposi- ton, and when he finds that the queen will be his, he gives every one his bless ing and his kingdom to Piola and Angela, telling the former to Ego Into the king business on his own account" Thus, all of the complications happily are adjusted.

With increased wonder they stumbled down into the cabin. The door was part ly open. but all was quiet within.
 'Avast!" cried the leader. T see. I sec" The others crowded back, as a strange noise struck their ears. Its a ghost,' whispered the big man 1T seen 1t; black ghost. Avasti" But the stair way was too narrow and one fleeing hero fell back, hit the door, and sprawled into the cabin, knocking over a chair.
 In his efforts to rise he hit the small table, and then the ghost confronted him.
 "Cowardsl" yelled the intruder, swell ing up. "A cat; it's only cat!'
 True enough. the feline captain. remem- bering that in navigating the ship through the ways of ferryboats. tugs, and steam ships, he had forgotten to get his break fast. had descended unobserved, and was eating a frugal meal when he was rudely disturbed.
 fingered at the intrusion he pulled his fur coat tightly about him and glared at the visitor. The latter could not look him in the face. Instead. he sauntered on deck, and with real bravado, made much of filling his pipe.
 With a manner of noble disdain. the skipper followed. "W-o-o-o-o-wt" she remarked. and the 1ongshoremen jumped "Spzzt-zt-zti' she went on, and the deck hands paled. Then. with her fur standing straight up on her back. her tail six inches in diameter. and her eyes flashing fire, the cat sprang to land, and was lost behind a pile of lumber.
 Tomorrow the Capt. H. c. Higgins will be lowed over to the Jersey Flats and left, to become the home of marshrats and swamp owls. It seems likely that unless the black cat should add to her knowledge of navigation the art of human speech, and come forward to tell what she knows. the strange mystery of the barge's lonely wanderings will remain unsolveG.

AHoYl CRIED THE CAT.
Also. Avast! as She Landed Barge HIg-
 gins at Her Dock.

From the New York Commercial Adver-
 tiser.
 Manned only by a monster black cat, the staunch barge Capt. Fl. c. Higgins wended its way through the Narrows to- day, up the crowded North river and docked by force of habit at It's old pier. No S.
 Throughout the long and perilous voy- age the black cat never left its post of duty, but stood on the bridge with all the assurance of a Sandy Hook pilot. Through tortuous channels. keeping a sharp lookout for buoys, past puffng tugs and ocean tramps. lodging ferr- boats and sailing vessels, and always keeping an eye to windward the feline skipper passed the deck, occasionally lash ing her tail and moving, "Avast. there!" and Ship ahoy! with an accent fairly drenched with salt air.
 When finally after days Of stormy weather the barge manoeuvred into posi- tion, the captain. mate and crew of one stroked his whiskers thoughtfully and prepared to come to land.
 'Longshoremen and dockhands spying the mysterious craft moving serenly up the stream bearing neither to right nor left. had watched her till she docked Now they cambered aboard
 The captain binked. Where's the crew." cried a great hoarse-voiced man.

NEWS AND GOSSIP
 OF COMING PLAYS

Newspapers class Madame Adelina Pat ii as a multi-millionaire. Whether she is this or not. she is certainly a very rich woman. Baron Alfred de Rothschild of London has, for many years been an in- innate friend of the prima dona, and he has so carefully and wisely invested her funds as to materially increase them. Though always living at a very expen- sive rate, Patti has never spent much more than a tithe of her income.
 Some newspapers reproach the singer for persisting in continuing to make large sums in spite of being already so rich If this be failing, it is one she shares with other millionaires. It is not record that Russell Sage, Rockefeller Morgan, Gould, Armours, Senator Clark or the Astors have ceased their activities by reason of advancing age or because they have enough.
 But Patti's stock in trade is of another description. It is the possession of an art in it's supremest manifestation, which of necessity must die with her. Why de- prive the world of this joy, while it is in its greatest degree of amplitude, for pure ly selfish reasons? It took five years to induce Patti to come back.
 Besides, unlike other millionaires, Patti does not take our money without our full and free consent.

Special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.
 Philadelphia-Dr H. K. Pancoast, the skiographer at the University of Penn sylvana, says he has discovered that 1t is possible by means of the x-ray so to bleach the skin of a negro that to all in- tents and purposes the subject becomes a white person. The condition of person so treated Is apparently permanent, he says.
 The discovery was made incidentally while negroes were being treated at the university for cancer and lupus, and while no attempt so far has been made to ex- pertinent with the skin of healthy ne- gro. Doctor Pancoast himself believes 1t is possible to change the color.

 Miss Reselle Knstt gave a pleasing in- depreciation yesterday at the Jefferson theatre of the role of Mary Tudor in the dramatizatien of Charles Majors "when Knlshtheod Was In Flower,'
 In every way nhe Is well suited to play tho part, and 1t was matter of regret to the audience that she was suffering from a bad cold which seriously affected her speaking voice. she followed the caprieolous Mary described in the book, piuns!ng In an instant from greatest mer- riment to tho deepest gloom, from haught- mess to complete submission us the infiu- enee of love became stronger and strong CT.
 The company was well balanced and contained no members who were weak While the cast was not as strong as has been seen in the play, still nearly all were capable of acting their parts. Ogden ste- vens falls short in some places in his In. depreciation of King Henry VIII

der the X-ray is like that of the ordinary white man, it is said, and presents a per- fectly healthy appearance. It Is natural despite the fact that the rays have de- stroyed the pigment which caused the coloring. The only question is whether, in case formal effort were made to change the skin of a negro from black to white, the destructive force of the ray would not kill the tissues. If the ray were applied so extensively this might happen, and such burns are highly dangerous In the cases treated at the university there were no burns and no illness.

DeekhandS Threaten Walk

More than ljJ decAhands, employed on vessels operated by the Alaska Steamship Company, La Conner Trad ing X Transportation Company and the Pacific Coast Steamship Company, have threatened to strike because wages are to be lowered November l, says the Seattle Times
 The strike had not been inaugurated up to a late hour this afternoon, but it was learned that the men were still considering the question The officers Of the three companies have been ex- pecting some word from the deck hands, but up to o'clock they had not been notified when they would quit work.
 The steamship officials and the deck hands entered into an agreement six months ago that wages in the summer months would be s45 and in the winter months s4O. The deckhands say that the change should have taken effect October The steamship men claim that the winter scale of wages will be announced November l,
 Owing to the disagreement over the date, the deckhands claim that they have a right to demand sI5 per month in the winter as we'll as the summer. old members Of the union, however, believe that Ihe men should live up to the agreement with the companies
 One steamship man said this after noon that if the deckhands walk out their places on the Sound boats would be filled at once.
