Mummy and The Maid at The Walnut
ST. Theatre.

The Mummy and the Maid, one of the
brightest hits TO visit Philadelphia this
season is now at the Walnut street theatre,
The play is filed with bright lines, laugh
able situations and complications. 1t was
written by Richard Carle, whose The Ten
derfoot7 and other musical comedies have
already been passed upon by theatregoers
and scored big hits 'sThe Maid and The
Mummy, is said to be the best and bright
est of them all The music Of The Maid
and The Mummy was composed by Robert
Hood Bowers, young musician, who is
rapidly making himself known in the
world of music. Mr. Bowers composition
in sThe Maid and the Mummy is of the
light, tinkling and popular order extremely
whistleable, so much in demand at present
by lovers of entertainments Of this kind
This production is most elaborate one,
both scenically and from the standpoint of
costumes. Many novelties in stage business
have been introduced by the management
and there is no question as to the success
1.-THE Maid and the Mummy has met with
wherever it has been presented. The Maid
and the Mummy was great big hit at
the New York Theatre, New York last
summer. where it enjoyed long run. 1t
comes to Philadelphia with the identical
cast and company numbering in all one
hundred and six persons, which made the
first engagement early in the season 50 very
successful.
The present engagement is not limited
as to time and will most probably run un-
il the hot weather begins. It opened on
Monday, April 3rd.

dere, 973 cents to $1.663 These examples
have been taken at random in running over
the financial statements from the political
divisions for the two years 1884 and 1904.
A few instances were found in which the
tax rates had been reduced little, mainly
in the cities.
1t is curious circumstance that the
most costly systems of government are in
the townships and boroughs- Since 1884
hundreds of boroughs have been created in
this State, and the tax rates in them are
the highest IN New Jersey.

Value Of Education.
statistics Prove Each Day at school
Worth $40 to Pupil.

Exhaustive statistics establishing the
monetary value OF an education are given
by the Nashville 4me,1caa. Conclusions
reached are shown in the folio wing para
graph
The average educated man gets salary
Of 81. 600 year. de works 40 ears, max
ing total Of $40, 600 in a Lifetime. The
average laborer gets $3.50 a day, 300 days
in a yeRr, or $3.50 in a year. Ia 40 years he
earns S1s, 600 The difference, of So, 900
equals the value of an education. To ac-
quire this earning capacity requires u yrs.
at school of 100 days each, OF 2, 2,160 days.
Divide $22, 600, the value Of the education,
BY ?, 16o, number Of days required in get
ting it, we find that each day at school is
worth little more than SO to the pupil.

pupils at school

ONLY A DROP IN THE BUCKET.

And yet this vast increase Of State ex-
penditnres within the last twenty years is
scarcely mere than drop in the bucket
compared with the growth 4 municipal ex-
penditures within the same period. These
involve constant and steady increase OF
the burdens that rest upon the people.
whereas the cost Of the State government
does not come out Of the general taxpayers
at all, but is met out of the taxes on mis-
cellaneous corporations and railroads.

quote from his article-He says

twenty years, will show at glance what
prodigious strides we have made in govern
mental expenditures in that time
Gloucester County Democrat. (Woodbury, N.J.) 1878-1932, 1905-04-13

These are typical. Every item, all the
way through, shows large increase. The
total disbursements from the State fund in
1884 aggregated 81, ,o70. 1913 20. while last
year they reached s., ,795, SAB "A In addi-
tion there were extraordinary disbursements

so, and numerous other items.
The largest increase in expenditures, it
will be observed, has been in caring for the
criminal and defective classes Much Of the
increase has also been due to the multiple

a great deal could be saved by iudicious
pruning in all directions. At any rate, it

THE SEARCH FOR LEADERS.
"What do you aim to do ?'' / asked,
bluntIY, of Mr.. Wilbur.
His reply, in substance, was about this:
I'VE just try to learn what is what, where
we are weak and how our weaknesses may
be strengthened. We have no theories, no,
patent remedies. Most of all, we are de-
voting ourselves to trying to develop lead
ers in the local meetings We need more
ministers, and we 90 about from meeting
to meeting trying TO find out persons who
are qualified to become snch, but who, for
some reason. generally natural diffidence,
have shrunk from assuming that position
No; there is no thought with us that
ever squints in the direction of an employed
ministry. Ours is pure democracy, and
want not mere intellectual equipment in
our leaders so far as that goes, the average
educated young Friend of to-day is prob
ably qualified to become minister-but
we want the emphasis laid upon heart
ministry. Given local leaders of the right
sort, all our problems are far on the way to
settlement

WHAT is a REVIVAL?

The conversation drifted to the demo-
