review of the current theatrical
season, with its tale of discouraging
receipts, the unusual number of fail
ures, proves that the musical show is
holding its own among the various
forms of entertainments. But there is
occurring a gradual change from the
slap-dash musical comedy to sOme-
thing more nearly approaching the old
fashioned comic opera. Numerous IN
stances might be cited of successes
made by entertainments of this latter
class, each proving that they are whaS
theaterg going people want at present.
FRITZ Scheff is reported to have one of
the most pronounced of these sue
cesses in "Babette," by Victor Herbert
and Harry B. Smith. ''Babette" comes
under the class of romantic comic op-
era. It is said to be a bit more am
bilious than the average musical play
and worthy of the ability Of Its star,

favorite of grand opera, and led into
the lighter and more popular field of
artistic endeavor by Charles B. Dilling-
ham. She will appear in "Babette" at.
the Metropolitan opera house the first
half of the week beginning tomorrow
night
The story of "Babette" begins with
the mutterings of revolt among the
Belgian villagers near Antwerp. The
period is in the seventeenth century,
when the Netherlands were firmly
gripped by Spain. Baltazar, a Spanish
spy, and his daughter. set out in dis
guise for Paris to ask the aid of the
French king in quelling the Belgian
revolt They are outwftted by Babette
and her father, c1ockHaker, and his
wife. A painter and g. soldier of for
tune are also in the scheme to circurn-
vent the spies The patriots have been
passing as Strolling players, but by
an exchange of clothing they are en-
abled to take the gilt coach of Baltazar,
who is representing himself as the
Spanish ambassador, and to arm them
selves with his papers, which they alter
to suit theirsoWn purposes. They drive
Off, leaving the bedraggled spies under
arrest at the inn near Brussels. Ar
riving at Versailles, in the magnificent
salon of the king, Babette and her
friends are confronted by their rivals.
Babette wins forgiveness for herself
and the patriots by singing before the
king, and all ends merrily.

The Phenix Roller mills and ele-
yator owned and operated by r.
Nichols & Co., at Fairfax, was total
ly destroyed by fire at $50 o'clock
last Thursday morning, entailing a
total loss to the company of not less
than So, 600, The fire started un-
der the driveway between the mill
and elevator on the southeast side,
and the heavy wind blowing from
the south at the time assisted ma
terially in reducing the fine manu-
acturing institution to ashes in
less than forty minutes from the
time the fire was first discovered.
The mill had been grinding day and
night in order to promptly fill sew
eral large eastern orders for -four,
and on account Of not being able to
secure cars the previous day about
five car loads Of flour were burned,
together with large quantity Of
wheat and barley. That the fire
was OF incendiary origin is the firm
belief Of nearly every citizen OF the
town. Only one year ago last
March the company sustained al
similar loss and under similar cir
but their faith in the
future prospects Of Fairfax was by
no means shattered, for they imme-
diately rebuilt another mill of $50
barrel capacity, besides large ele-
vator, the mill particularly being
in detail and the pride OF
farmers as we'll as Of the citizens.
This second loss to the company
falls 50 heavily that there is very |
little prospect Of another mill being
built. Besides being a severe blow
