What Ibsen Plays Are.

In the history of the stage there
has been no dramatist who holds
the mirror up to nature as clearly
as Ibsen, the Norwegian dramatist
whose plays since the early SOS
have been gradually taking a
strong hold on our intellectual
theatre goers. Ibsen looks to life
itself instead ,ot conventions for his
dramatic material. His pictures
frame living, breathing men and
women of our everyday existence.
He knows that character is the root
of all drama, and it is to the life
like, convincing, consistent portray
al of character that he devotes his
powers The average theatre goer
shuns Ibsen because he thinks his
plays too daring, too near the act
ual. When, however, he does con-
descend to witness one, the artistic
excellence of the work, the clear cut
lifelike picture, the compelling at
tention obtained by the methods
obtained by Ibsen, usually makes
a convert Of the scoffer and adds
one more to the ever increasing
clientele of our greatest of play
wrights. In Ghosts, the most
widely discussed of Ibsen's dramas,
the master has achieved his great
est success. As played by Alberta
GalIatin and her company it is
looked upon as one of the strongest
and most convincing of dramas,
even rivaling that of Shakespeare.
Rostand, Bulwer Lytton, etc.
The production of Ghosts" at
the Auditorium, on Thursday, Feb.
6th, will be one of the most com.
piete dramatic triumphs of the the
atrical year, and should be seen by
every intellectual person for the ed
ucational worth alone.

Of the spuntFy demanded Vnder the
direction Of President Mckinley, defee-
tive features OF the coast defense were
corrected, and be promptly used a part
Of the emergency appropriation OF
S5O,O00,0O0 for the planting Of harbor
mines and protecting important ocean
EarbOrs Of the country with modern
submarine mines. Since that time the
whole subject Of coast defense has
been more seriously regarded until to-
day the report Of the war department
shows that since the system was in
augurated this military defense shows
the expenditure for Notifications, arm
aments, electrical appliances. etc, Of
$50, OOO, 900 in round numbers. Accord
ing TO the defense project first mapped
out, and which Is still being followed,
It will yet cost to complete the work
about about $51, 900. 900. The whole ag-
gregate cost Of providing defense for
the coast, ocean harbOrs and seaport
cities will, therefore, be approximately
S141, 900, 900. The annual cost Of main
tanning this defense, including gar.
Tisoning, annual supplies, etc, is esu-
mated at S1s.OOO.OOO.

Very few women know that when

when, In fact, they know they are

There was not the best Of feeling be-
tween the executive and legislative de-
partments at that time, as the Bristo y
post office scandal report had just
come in containing the names Of up
wards Of 200 congressman as being
connected with Irregularities The
statesmen we're eager to find some way
in which to get even" with the de-
paTtments, so they hit upon the plan
OF restricting the use Of carriages for
Official purposes. To insure this a pro-
vision was inserted in one of the ap-
preparation bills that no carriage
should be used for personal use and
each should have printed upon it the
name Of the department TO which II
belonged.
There was q good deal Of chuckling
over this latter provision, as It was
believed few Of the department off,
Gals would care to attend social func-
tons and go about personal affairs In

public department
II now turns out that as the law Is
construed by its Official interpreter IT
the treasury department, Comptroller
Tracewel, 1t only applies TO those car
riages named in that particular appro-
priatiOn bill II so happens that the
only carriages so named are those for
the use Of the superintendent OF pub
Lie printing and the superintendent Of
the bureau Of engraving and printing.
These are two Of the hardest-wOrked
officials in the government and two
who have more legitimate use for pub
lie eOnveyances than any others They
are the victims Of the scheme to hu-
initiate other officials. Their two car
riages must bear the label Of the de-
partments to which they belong, while
all the under secretaries, chiefs Of bu-
reaus and other government employees
who have been driving about in gOr-
geOus undesignated vehicles can con-
tinue the practice.

WHTTE lie cAUsE PANIC.
Women at Atlantic City Flee In Goa
fusion from the Harmless
Little Rodents.

Willie Fitzgerald, a neWsboy Of At.
lantic City, n. J., was carrying six white
mice In q box down the board walk one
day recently, when q rolling chair hii
him, causing him to drop the box The
lid few open and out jumped the mice.
The walk was crowded with hundreds
Of men, women and children, and the
feminine contingent scattered In all d.
rections. Neither direction nor the
manner Of going was considered, the
women giving vent TO heartrending
yells.
Miss Eda Lintman, Of Lancaster, Pa,
who learned much about athletics while
At Vassar, made q bound for the railing
on the board walk, cleared Il and landed
on the beach. Mr.. and Mrs. John H.
Ivans, who came from Pittsburg on their
honeymoon, were rudely separated.
Mrs Ivans made on down the board
walk. and was only found after a three
hours search.
An aged invalid woman, who was be-
ing wheeled down the board walk in q
rolling chair, forgot her ailments, gave
q leap from the carriage and ran up an
adjacent avenue. Another woman, who.
IL Is estimated, weighed close to $50
pounds, slipped as she started to run,
and landed with all her weight on one

JOURNALISM IS GREAT FIELD
George Meredith, of England, Says It
Almost Takes the Place Of
Government.

George Meredith, the father Of con-
temporary English letters, has been Civ
ing vigorous expression to his opinions
on current affairs.
Regarding journalism he said: TT f.
most likely that practical journalists,
like practical politicians, will have to 60
largely on opportunist lines. Though
most of my work has been imaginative,
have done a certain amount of journal
ism and I recognize its difficulties. But
II has extraordinary power, too. and
great opportunity for fine influence II
has almost taken the place Of govern
ment II is true that the editorials in
nearly all the newspapers have fallen
on very much only quite recently in
power and character. don't know what
the reason for that is, but still newspa-
pens have very great influence. The
power and functions Of government are
undoubtedly diminishing. I don't know
whether we shall reach the time when
there Will be no government at all, as
some people hope, but certainly that Is
the tendency. Tyranny, which is the
complete form Of government, has been
tried and proved to be impossible. We
shall never have that again unless the
democracy bstrays itself"

FACTS ABOUT LIBERTY BELL
People with Weakness for Histories
Find Independence Hall Of
Absorbing Interest.

People with a weakness for sitting In
the chairs in which great people have
sat may be able to appreciate the salts
faction which some strangers in Phil
adelphia enjoy in gazing at the oaken
rafters in Independence hall from which
the Liberty bell has hung, says the Rec
ord. Reserve Oflcer Orr, who is sta
toned In this hall, says he cannot see
that the absence Of this treasured relic
makes any difference in the number Of
visitors. Furthermore, these visitors
now spend about as much time In look
ing at the case as they do when the
bell hangs inside. Sightseers, as q rule,
plan to devote so much time to q Ger
tain thing, and so true to their itinerary
are they that the mere fact that It
isn't there doesn't in the least disturb
their equilibrium. By way Of recon-
pense, the reserve oficer often explains
Just how big the bell Is, how II hangs,
how they take # out, and other details
Of absorbing interest.

NEW INDUSTRY FOR WOMEN
Out in California They Get Dish-Rags
from the Garden Instead Of
from the Stores.

A novel enterprise. that Of raising
dish-rags, is being exploited by a
number Of southern California horti-
culturists, who received the inspira-
ton for the scheme from Charles
Richardson, whose gardens in Pasa-
dena are becoming famous for their
remarkable productions. Mr.. Rich
ardson has successfully raised many
growths new to American soil, and
this year is exceeding all his pre-
vious triumphs by raising thousands
of dish-rags.
Last year Mr.. Richardson's string
beans, which measured 43 inches in
length, created q STIR but dish-rag
vines, which, with thsir pendant dish
