Special Cable to The Herald.
PARIS, March IL. - Nine. Sarah
Bernhardt is preparing a revival OF
Racine's tragedy Esther under pre-
cisely similar conditions to those of
the first performance in 1859, by the
girls of Nine. de Maintenons school,
at st. Cyr
All the parts will be played by wo-
men, and to make the revival more
perfect actors representing Louis XIV,
and his court will have seats on the
stage in costumes according with the
description given by Nine. de Sevigne
in her letters.
The original incidental music has
been modernized by Reynaldo Hahn.
Signora Duse has arranged to give
a short series of representations at
the Theatre de POeuvre in the middle
of the month. The plays in which
the actress is to appear are La Femme
de Claude" La Dame aux Camelias,"
by Dumas; Sardou's Fernando" Su-
dermann's "Magda," Ibsen's "Hedda
Gabler," Pinero's 1.-THE Second Mrs.
Tanqueray" and Dumas "Visite de
Noces"
Signor Zocchi, of the Opera Comique,
who went to Rouen to sing at matt
nee of "Lakme." was due back in Paris
the same evening for "Cavalleria Rus
ticana." He missed the afternoon
train at Rouen, hired an automobile
and raced toward Nantes. Stopped by
gendarme, he lost twenty minutes,
and when he reached Nantes, at 6
o'clock, the express had just left. He
continued the journey in the automo-
bile and reached Paris at 9 o'clock.
At first he was relieved to find that
"Cavalleria" had been put last on the
program, but was handed note from
the manager saying that he had been
fined 2OOOf. ($4OO) for being absent
without leave.
Furthermore, he discovered he had
lost his pocketbook with all his ready
cash en- route.

EMERALDS THE FAD AMONG
SMART SET OF ENGLAND
These Stones viii Be Worn by Many
Women of High
Rank

LONDON, March 11.-Emeralds are
coming so much into fashion just now
that they are, as natural consequence,
rapidly rising in price and promise TO
be one of the favorite and most ex-
penslve stones of the coming season.
The queen owns a parure of emeralds
which is worth kings ransom; Prin-
eralds OF large size and first quality
which form a flexible waist belt, and
stones in the possession of the Duchess
OF Buccleuch and Lady Aberdeen are
priceless. Lady Londesborough also
has splendid emeralds and Lady Helen
Stavordale possesses a unique neck
lace OF emeralds and diamonds in the
form OF flowers strung together with
diamond chains, from which hangs a
pendant with one enormous emerald
surrounded by brilliants.
The Duchess of Marlborough, who
so seldom wears any jewels but her
famous pearls and diamonds, caused a
mild sensation at a drawing room this
week by wearing a magnificent orna-
ment of emeralds. Lady Sherbourne is
another fortunate owner of these
stones, having in her possession the
fine gems which once belonged to Prin-
cess Mary. Duchess of Teck. Lady
Carew has a fine tiara OF emeralds,
and she also owns an exceptionally
splendid stone which was presented to
her by the shah Of Persia

WINE CONSUMPTION ON
DECREASE IN ENGLAND
Hard Times and Change in Public

Special Cable to The Herald.

Special Cable TO The Herald.
LONDON, March 11.-If the con-
sumption of wine continues to decrease
at the same rate as it did last year,
none at all will be drunk in this coun-
try in six years time.
This fact appears in the board of
trade returns just issued, showing the
clearance of wine for home consump-
tion during the past three years. The
figures are as follows:
Total clearance OF wine for home
1908, 1S,S46.191 gallons; 1904, 1890, ,0o1
gallons.
The editor of the Wine and Spirit
Trade Record. in an interview this
week, said that. in the opinion of the
trade, the great decrease was due, first,
to economic conditions, and second. to
a change in the public taste.
During the last three years the
enormous expenditure OF the South
African war has pressed hardly upon
the public" he said, when they are
short OF money wine Is the first thing
in which they will economize.
Then, as regards the public taste.
1t is well known fact that men will
not sit long after dinner. as they used
to do, and drink their bottle of port
or claret. The moment dinner is nm
ished they begin smoking, the only
form OF liquid refreshment they in
dulge in afterward being in most cases
a glass Of whisky and soda"

AMERICAN BELLE
DRAWS ALL EYES
LADY ROSS THE SENSATION OF
THE COURT
Her Jewels and Gown Attract Most
Marked Attention, but Her Shoes
Take Even Royalty by
Storm

LONDON, March 1.-THE first ap-
pearance of Lady Ross patricia Eli
SOM at court created a sensation, for
she had been so little seen. Her Jewels
and gown attracted no small attention,
but her shoes won the admiration of
royalty.
She is small, rather dainty in appear
ance. and her bright-coloring was
shown to great advantage by her dress
of eau de nil MORE, with Brussels
lace draped so heavily over the whole
as almost to hide the rich foundation.
Her train was cloth of silver, and
this, too, bore quite small fortune in
lace on its sweeping folds.
OF Kid, Inset With opaIs
But her shoes were the loveliest part
Of her costume, and everyone looked at
them. They were of the finest white
kid, sewn with gold thread and cut
away in delicate flower patterns to al
low the insetting of opals, for which
stone Lady Ross Is famous. The stones
were encircled with a gold design
on the shoes which was unique.
The Duchess of Marlborough's dress
at Fridays court excited immense ad-
miration. 1t was made entirely of
gold tissue, almost covered with Vene-
tian lace, the train being of pale blue
satin embroidered with gold. She wore
all the Vanderbilt pearls round her
neck and a very high diamond and
pearl coronet.
Our Ambassadors Wife
Mrs. Choate was present at Fridays
court with a large group of Americans.
She had two gowns made, the one she
wore being of thick white satin, bro
caded in lilies, the foliage family tint
ed green, with train Of deep sapphire
blue velvet.
Among the ladies she presented was
Mrs. Shaw Bridge, who is exceedingly
pretty and rides magnificently. She is
connected with the Dana Gibsons and
is always much admired.
Her gown was of cloth of silver,
with a flounce of deep Irish lace. Over
all fell a mantle of white chiffon, open
ing in front to show more clearly the
silvery tissue beneath. The train of
white velvet was fastened with dia-
mond buckle and suspended from the
shoulders by real diamond shoulder
straps, edged with dark Russian sable.
Mrs. Adair means TO attend the
kings second court. 1t is likely she
will stay on in London, as there is talk
now of repeating her fancy dress ball,
which was one of the most brilliant
events of two seasons since.

REV|vAL|STS SEE
A GREAT LIGHT
WEIRD PHENOMENA OBSERVED
IN WALES
Inhabitants Much Worked Up Over
Iluminations That Accompany
Devotions of a Successful
Local Preacher
Special Cable to The Herald.

Special Cable to The Herald.
LONDON, March 1.-THE Daily Mail
says: Lights of unknown origin and
of dazzling brightness are shining out
by night on the hillside above the little
chapel of Egryn, in North Wales. The
people of the countryside keenly alive
to superstitious influences, regard the
strange lights with steadfast face and
calmness, believing them to be material
signs from heaven in connection with
the revival.
Three months ago the revival spirit
touched the little NIerionethshire viii
lage of Egryn, and Mrs Mary Jones,
the wife of local farmer, reused much
fervor in the village and gained
many converts.
Soon after this local revival began
rumors were afloat that strange lights
were to be seen in the sky when Mrs.
Jones went abroad, that sometimes
they accompanied her to the place of
worship she was visiting, that they
were always to be seen when she was
preaching, and that they made their
most frequent appearance over the cha
pei at Egryn, where the revival started.
Under these circumstances a special
correspondent of the Daily Mail was
sent to investigate the matter. He has
seen the lights, and says of them:
cat 7 o'clock in the evening L made
my way through Egryn, watching the
black hillside. 1 walked back again
across the lonely meadow, and saw
nothing. At s o'clock 1 had decided
that the whole thing was local super
stition.
Half an hour later my views were
changed. At S:15 1 was on the road
side, walking from Dyffrin to Egryn.
In the distance, about mile away, /
could see the three lighted windows
of the tiny Egryn chapel, where SER
vice was going on. 1t was only a
touch of light in the miles of country
side. Suddenly, at 500, 1 saw what
roof of the chapel. 1t came from no
where and sprang into brilliance and
did not move.
"I set out to walk the four lonely
miles to Barmouth, stopping here and
there for ten minutes to watch for
fresh lights.
"Just after 10:30 l was startled by a
flash on the dark hillside Immediately
on the left, and looking up I saw I was
comparatively close to one of the
strange lights. 1t was about 300 feet
up the hillside, and about 500 feet from
where 1 stood. 1t shone out dazzlingly,
not with a white brightness, but a
deep yellow brightness. 1t looked a
solid bulb of light, six inches in diam
eter, and was firing to look at.
IT ran to the stone wall by the side
of the road, climbed 1t, and made run
for the light 1t was gone before 1
had covered a dozen yards and 1 could
find nothing but the bare hillside. When
reached the road again looked back
along the way had come. and saw in
the roadway near the Egryn chapel
another of the bright lights.
"That is, BADLY. what 1 saw. The
lights may be capable OF some natural
explanation. but give the condolences
wor what they are worth"

HOUSE SERVANTS
TO Be ABOLISHED
MRS. PERKINS GILMAN MAKES
STARTLING STATEMENTS
Says That We viii Get All Our Food
From Factories and That
Our Babies Will Be
Boarded Out ~
special cabie to rhs Iierald.

Special Cable to The Herald.
LONDON, March 11.--Servants will
be unnecessary in the homes Of the
future, according to Mrs. Perkins Gill
man, of New York because food will
be prepared in factories, and babies
will be boarded out.
Addressing the members Of the Wo-
mems Institute in London this week
on the servant question, she showed
that her view of settling the grievan-
ces of both mistress and maid Is to
abolish domestic service altogether.
EVERY other profession has been
modernized," she said. "It is only in
the kitchens that we try to keep poor
little remnant Of slavery. A dwindling
number of men and women still have
to wait upon other men and women as
IL they were babies or invalids. Our
present method Of feeding and cleaning
the world shows a colossal waste of
labor. No less than AZ per cent Of
the worlds labor is wasted, and the
cost is three times as much as 1t need
he, and all because domestic service
is regarded as feminine function in
stead of human labor. The skill ard
professional preparation of food in
factories will take the place of private
cooks and kitchens. The food would
be served we'll cooked, fresh and hot,
at much smaller cost than at present.
and private houses will be cleaned
scientifically. Then, for the first time,
we shall have private homes"

MARLB0R0UGH'S PRIVACY is
BROKEN INTO
Duchess Compelled to Gaze on un-

Vain
Special Cable to The Herald.

Special Cable to The Herald.
LONDON. March 1.-THE position
of the Duke and Duchess of Marlbor-
ough at Sunderland house is becoming
tragic.
When the site was bought many of
the duchess friends warned her that
however magnificent the house might
eventually be, the surrounding slums
were too appalling to allow of much
privacy or peace. Not only can the
poor tenants of squalid novels nearly
see right into the ducal windows, but
it is almost impossible to approach or
leave the house after dark without en-
countering some disagreeable sight.
A Hideous Scene
The other night, when returning
from Lady Lansdowne's reception, the
duchess found occasion to go to one
of the back rooms. Hearing a great
commotion below she looked out and in
the light of lamp in one of the rooms
of the opposite house she saw a terrible
fight going on between a drunken man
and woman, the man holding an open
knife in his hand.
She cried out for the duke, and a
servant was sent hurriedly for police
man.
Meantime the duchess was fascinate1
by the horror of the struggle. Only
the drunkenness of the man saved the
woman from having her throat cut; she
had her hands badly SCARED and her
clothes were covered with blood.
The policeman, notified by the SER
want, entered the house and rescued
the woman. The duchess had a mar
row escape from being a chief witness
in a murder trial, and the experience
upset her greatly. For days she could
talk of little else.
Prohibitive Prices Asked
1t was the dukes original plan to
buy up all the surrounding property,
but the prices demanded for unexpired
leases were prohibitive.
The duchess has barely yet recovered
from the shock of her accident at LORD
Grenfells ball in Dublin, where a
lighted cigarette set fire to her fluffy
tulle overskirt, which burst into flame.

Future of the Babies

"what will be done with the babies?"
woman in the audience asked.
THE idea of the mother keeping her
child with her is a beautiful myth"
Mrs. Gilman calmly answered.
provision will be made for the
they will have the best that science,
art and experience can give to make
their home perfect. Here the babies
will remain for eight hours each day,
infinitely better off under the expert
care of professional child culturists
than if left to the charge of the young
woman who happened to be its mother.
1t is pathetic thing" added Mrs.
Gilman, that no baby on earth, ex
cept 1t be twin or a triplet, enjoys
the society of other babies"
Commenting on Mrs. Gilman's re-
marks, the London Express says:
Servants are to be as snakes in
ireland. The concentrated effort of
some millions of masters and mis-
tresses having failed to mend them,
them, they are to be envied. So says
Mrs. Perkins Gilman of New York,
where this beautiful future is planned.
The reforming lady probably is right
in thinking that the grievances of
mistress and maid will be settled when
domestic service is abolished alto
gether.
Food From Factories
1--WE are in future to get our food
wholesale from factories-which seems
an unnecessary sacrifice to convention
in these days of food and drink tab
lolds-and to have our private houses
cleaned scientifically, which is certain
ly an advance on anything which has
been enjoyed up to the present time.
The exact method of this scientific
cleaning Is not explained. Perhaps, on
the lines of Christian Science, our
houses will be cleaned if only we think
sufficiently hard that they are Then
says Mrs. Gilman, for the first time we
shall have private homes. Private
homes, of course, exist at the present
time for those who are exceptionally
gifted with imagination. Only unkind
people call them lunatic asylums.
But the beautiful vista of domestic
peace opened up by Mrs. Gilman's
vision of a servantless age is as moth
ing to that foreshadowed by her sys-
tenn of professional baby culture. In
cubators for the human race have been
known for some time. We are now
g.
forcing pit for the tender Seeding of
mankind. Forcing will be done by
contract, much to the advantage of the
baby since we are told to believe that
the idea of the mother keeping her
child by her is beautiful myth. Mrs.
Gilman's apocalypse is fascinating.
Still, we are inclined to believe that
both Mary Ann and the baby will still
remain for many years to plague the
