Fortunes in Church SteepIes.

1t is the opinion of Rev. DR.. Forbes,
Secretary of the Board of Extension
Of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
that enough money has been expended,
or it may be said wasted, in building
steeples, to pay off all the church debts
Of the country. Besides, he says,
steeples are a relic of barbarism, and
money used in their construction can
be more usefully expended. A good
many people will hardly agree with
the reverend doctor in his opinion that
church steeples are useless or serve no
good end. Grace and beauty are lent
to thousands of otherwise common
place looking towns and cities by the
spires rising here and there from their
midst. Everything cannot be strictly
utilitarian, and If a thing serves to
please the eyes and senses of hundreds
or thousands of people, it is far from
being useless.

The picture showed Il man i'm the act

that the horror of the picture was not

younger children playing together in
the gutter. Their faces were Smeared
with the mud made by the dish water

children were amusing themselves

were the boathouSe and the swimming

Threatened With Extinction, He Has
Organized an Opposition Which

David Belasco for number of
years has been waging a war against

assisted in years past by Minnie Mad

A Famous Theatre Site.

Lafayette Theatre is a comparative
ly modern playhouse, and occupies the
site OH which formerly stood the Sew
ard mansion, in which Secretary Sew
ard of Lincoln'S cabinet lived when
an attempt was made to assassinate
him the same night President Lin
coin was shot In later years the
house was occupied by Secretary
Blaine.
Last year David Belasco found all
theatres in the national capital with
closely barred doors. He was arrang-
ing to make the initial production of
"Adrea," Mrs. Leslie Carter's latest
success, and found no building in
Washington suitable for a conversion
into a theatre. except Convention Hall,
probably the largest auditorium south
of New York, and in years previous
used for an ice palace, for six day BIZ
cycle races. athletic meetings, and
other institutions requiring great
space. This had a hall some $50 feet
in length by 125 feet in width, with a
roof carried on huge semi-circular ar
ches rising to height of nearly fifty
feet above the floor. Such a barn as

Worse Than Tobacco Cigarettes.

getting society into a turmoil, but is
also attracting the attention Of the
medical fraternity. 1t is the tea-leaf
cigarette habit-One in which women
are becoming the chief adopts. and
which they find great difficulty in over
coming. Once the taste for the new
tweed" is acquired, it is said the SEN
sation of smoking tea cigarettes is
quite pleasant. Dizziness is caused by
constant smoking and the victims
clutch madly for invisible and
imaginary objects to support them
selves. They finally drop in an ex-
hausted and stupefed condition, and
then follows phat wild state of dream
land said to be as varied as that caused
by powerful narcotics.
