POLL $
VAUDEVILLE.

The announcement that the Poli sum- mer stock company is to present Ber- tha Galland's great success Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall'' at the Jac- ques next week has created no end of comment in view of the fact that the complete New York production has al includes not only the manuscript of the play but the entire complement of scenery, costumes. electrical effects and properties which were used by Miss Galand during her past season. A big sixty foot car packed to the roof rolled into the consolidated freight yards Tuesday morning and before 1t was emptied ten trips had to be made by the mammoth scenery wagons or the theater. An extra force of men has been working since that time un, packing the crates of furniture ana trunks of costumes and the working force of the theater has been toiling day and night getting the settings i'll position so they may be handled with ease Monday afternoon. The stage crew has been increased from five men to twelve so that the presentation may be made with smoothness and expedi tion The object of the management in securing such an unusually large and pretentious offering is that the playgoing public might understand that no expense will be spared to give the patrons of the house the best the the atrical market affords for the mini- mum scale of prices. The amount of money required to mount and stage a play of the size and character of Dor othy Vernon" would, if known, be a revelation to most people but the man. agement feels justified in the outlay be. | lieving that the patrons of the theatei | will appreciate what is being done for them and express it by their presence
 It will be the first time the piece has ever been seen here and the first time anyone has had the courage to jeopar
 dize success by offering it at the scale of prices which prevail at the Jacques
 Not since the Jacques was the home ol i the legitimate drama has anything nearly so magnificent, picturesque ant
 metropolitan been seen there and tho production will doubtless attract tht same people who have not crossed thf
 threshold of the house since it was given over to the lightness of variety
 Prices are 10, 20 and 3O cents: after
 moons 10 and 20 cents, ladies 10.

FILING HILLS.
When the subsoil Is Impervious to Water the Use of Tiles Will
 Prove of Value.

IL Is a mistake to suppose that hills never need to be tiled. Where the soil is sandy it is Of course not neces- sary to go to the expense of tiling them. that is provided the upper soil and the subsoil are both of a porous nature. We have seen sandy lands that needed tiling. but they are not common. The writer has in mind g field where the lime in the soil seems 10 have worked down into the subsoil and formed an impervious layer about as hard as cement. through which the water could pass at any time Of year. In another field of this nature the drains had 10 he blasted through con- glomerate formation of rotten rock.
 But in most cases the sandy soils will take care of themselves. and only the clayey soils on hillsides need much attention. says the Farmers Review. There are numerous hillsides where the soil is of such texture that the va ter Is very slow in drying out in the spring and at the ends of the out cropping layers of clay the soil Is 50 spriney that in some cases small liv- ing springs are found.
 The hills have one advantsge for tilins that the level plains do nor have. and that is a very decided fall. I' takes less science to lay tiles that viIl carry water down a hill than to l7y tiles on q level or nearly level plain. The use of drains. vhesher tie or oth- ervise. viIl make many of our hiii- sides and slopes much earlier in the spring and prevent the coming Of the very early fro<ts In the fall

SOLVING LABOR PROBLEM.
The Difficulty Which Faces Every Farmer During the Busy
 Time of the Year

The trouble is with the men who dc tn . material way the difference be- tween a good and poor hand. The poor hand claims and usually gets as good pay as the best. AH incentive to work in the interest of the employer is thus removed.
 The solution of the problem is. be. lieve. in wages and privileges. Make the hired mans interest your own and he will. make your interests his. Treat him well and if he is worth keeping on your farm he will show his appreciation of #.
 The most satisfactory man from all points of view is I believe. the man with . family, says the rarm and Home. He should be given a com forfabls house With a garden spot and the privilege of raising poultry and the use of COW. Grant tnese as ia. vors and not as a part of his salary. Keep on friendly terms with the wife and children. and be no stranger to his home and table Counsel with him in regard to the work and listen to and thank him for suggestions. In hiring extra help. put him over them with the responsibility of the work upon him. Don't boss farther than to show what you wish done. Leave the details to him.
 First. get A good man and pay good wages. A cheap man Is dear at any price Gain his confidence and good will and make him interested in the farm. its stock and its crops. And above all. don't forget that he is . man with thoughts and feelings oi other men. If he isn't. he is not . profitable hired man.

State.
CIV the Associated Press. }


st. Petersburg. April 2.-Ambassa-
dor Meyer this afternoon presented his
letters of credence to Emperor Nicho-
las at Tsarskoe-Selo.
In diplomatic circles the keenest
interest in manifested at the first in
terview between the Emperor and the
new American ambassador owing to
the widespread belief that President
Roosevelt has already allowed the in
formation to be conveyed to both bel
ligerents that he stands ready, upon
their mutual request, to undertake the
promotion of peace. 1t is supposed
that Mr.. Meyer this afternoon deliv-
cred a confidential communication to
his Majesty from President Roosevelt;
but so far as is ascertainable the En-
peror did not discuss the question of
peace with the new ambassador.
Mr.. Meyers reception followed the
traditional Old World pomp and
ceremony observed at the court of the
Romanoffs. He was received literally
'in great and solemn state"
The audience lasted ten or fifteen
minutes. What passed between the
Emperor and the ambassador natural
ly is secret.
The occasion marked a notable de-
parture from thecu stom of the st.
Petersburg court since the days of
Minister c. r. Beckinridge Mr.. Meyer

Thus Argues the Counsel for the Com

Albany, N. Y, April 12.-The re-
movaI of Justice Warren B. Hooker,
from the Supreme Court bench of the
State of New York, by a concurrent
resolution of the Senate and Assem-
bly, was the conclusion drawn from
the evidence given before the Assem-
bly, Judiciary Committee and present.
ed to the committee in an argument
today by former Deputy Attorney Gen
eral Henry b. Conan, counsel for the
committee of inquiry. Mr.. Conan
read his conclusions of fact, en-
bracing six different postoffice ap-
pointmentS-those of Frank p. Ball,
Maurice Hooker, Ora Caldwell,
O'Neill and Minerva jeffrey
Katherine Clark, the Dunkirk post
office leases, and the judgment against
the city of Dunkirk. In each of these
cases Mr.. Conan declared that the
conduct of Justice Hooker was inn
moral and tended to submit the ad-
ministration of Justice by Judge
Hooker on the bench to contempt and
disgrace.

ATTEMPT AT ROBBERY.
Washington to be Visited by Another
Carnival Company.
special 10 News and Observer

Special to News and Observer
Washington, N c., April 12.-Mr.
a. B. Gardner, who died in Raleigh
ON Sunday last, was a familiar and
always welcome visitor here. For
many years resident here, he had
many personal friends who deplore
his early demise. He was married
here. The funeral was held at Oak
dale cemetery yesterday afternoon.
A bold attempt at robbery was
made at the post office here. An un-
known party endeavored to break the
letter drop open, and barely escaped
detection at the hands of the night
policeman and Mr. Fagan, assistant
postmaster.
There is no suspicion as to who
the marauder was.
Washington is to be visited by an
other carnival company. this time un-
der the auspices and for the benefit
of the Washington Cornet Band. The
week beginning April 24th, is the
time slated for the gaiety.
Municipal politics is getting on the
raw edge. The election for the bond
issue for the completion of payment
on the electric light plant will be held
on the 9th inst, and the biennial
election for the mayor and board fol-
lows on the first Monday in May. All
the present board and Mayor Stewart
are up for reelection.
1t means much to the town to con-
tinue existing conditions, which are
better here than for years.
