MuniciDaI Theafer

Sir Henry Irving is still harping
upon his pet specific for all theatrical
evils, the municipal theater AT a
luncheon given to him by the lord
mayor of Liverpool the other day he
said:
"If a theater were organized as a
branch of local government you would
organize theatrical taste-not all, but
the best of it, on high plane. So vast
has been the progress of the last forty
years, 1 will venture to say, that in a
lesser time you will have in this great
city a municipal theater, built and
endowed for the common good-for the
enlightenment and cultivation of the
people, for the formation and pre-
serving of standard of taste to en-
courage thought and respect for con-
scious and organized effort for the
cultivation of imagination. You would
maintain a body of actors who would
have a real and continuous opportunity
of learning their profession.
"Some despairing people complain
that the stage now gets the wrong
kind of recruits. 1 don't think there
is so much the matter with the re-
cruits as with the training that is
given to Them I know that when I
was young recruit in Manchester, 1
had more chance of learning my busi-
ness in a single season than most
young men and women have of learn
ing now on the stage in the course of
wears"

The Manzoni theater at Milan was
crowded for the first performance OF
Gabrielle dAnnunzio's Under a
Bushel" AS a compliment to the au-
thor the chief points of the play were
applauded, but altogether it is con-
sidered inferior to d'Annunzios pre-
vious works.
The old story of Charlotte Temple,
over which our grandmothers shed so
many tears, has been dramatized.
Olga Nethersole will return to this
country next fall and will present a
new play in addition to her former sue
cesses.
Florenz Ziegfeld is to operate a mu-
sic hall in Gotham next season on the
lines of the London establishments Of
that class. 1t is probable that Anna
Held will be the stellar feature.
John Drew will open the season at
the Empire theater next September,
when he will be seen in the latest play
from the pen of Augustus Thomas. Ali
the scenes are laid in and around New
York. Most or the action OF the play
takes place at Sherry's and the Brook
club. John Drew will play himself,
John Drew, gentleman, man-about-
town and club fellow.
Actors are fond of declaring that
they created" certain roles, by which
they mean, not that the play in question
was written by them, but that they
we're first to act parts after they had
been created by the author. George
Barnum not long ago received an ap-
plication for assistance from an old
legitimate actor, who went his col
leagues one better. After relating his
triumphs at length this individual
wrote; IN. B.-I created the role Of
Hamlet in the tragedy Of that pane"

Beerbohm Tree has decided upon the
production in the autumn at his Lon
don theater of a new drama, by
Stephen Phillips, in which the Emperor
Nero will figure, up to the period of
his death. A full scenario of the work,
which is in prologue and three acts,
has already been made by Mr.. Phillips,
who has condoned the faults of the
cruel Nero by ascribing his crimes TO
aesthetic, rather than to brutal sources,
The feminine interest in the play is
concerned with Agrippina, the mother
of Nero; with Poppia, his mistress, and
with Acte, his slave, who exercises a
salutary influence over him.

New Mountain Sheep.
From Recreation.


That there are strange and unknown ami
mails still undiscovered on our own conti-
pent would seem an extraordinary state
ment, but the exploration of Andrew J..
Stone has recently added many new and
hitherto unknown creatures to the collec-
ton of the American Museum of Natural
History. Mr.. B. II. Brown gives a graphic
account of a successful hunt for the Owls
STONED, the so-caled black sheep of Ameri-
ca. One can feel the breath Of the glacier
as the account is read, and the lump comes
in the throat of the reader as he scans the
brief, but touching paragraphs about the
orphan lamb. The story has the true ring
of a man who modestiy tells what he has
done and seen among unnamed mountains
in country untrodden by white men. What
other animals new to science are still hid
ing in these lonely lands will only. be known
when they are fully explored
The legendary American ibex may yet
prove to be a living reality.

CAN WASHINGTON BE cApruREDa
Maneuvers to Test Efficiency of De-
lenses of Capital.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
The joint military and naval exercises
of next week are to cover maneuvers
against and in defense of Washington.
They will be unlike the joint maneuvers
Of. last year, because they will expose no
plans of defense and reveal nothing to the
public or foreign governments as to the
position or condition of defensive works.
The exercises are to test the efficiency of
defensive works on Chesapeake bay and
the Potomac and the ability of military
forces Whereabouts to promptly meet at
tacks by ship
In 1914 the British were permitted to
secure control of Chesapeake bay, and no
measures We're taken to defend the city
of Washington until the British had gone
up the Pawtucket river and disem barked
at Benedict, a little more than thirty miles
southeast of the city. The battle of Bla-
densburg for the possession of the ma
TONS capital was fought within artillery
range of the city and the Capitol was
burned
This experience led to the elaboration of
a defensive system, and at the beginning
of the civil war the government, by
strengthening old forts, erecting new ones
and employing the navy. was able TO dom
mate Chesapeake bay and the lower Po-
tomac so completely that the confederates
ington.
After each campaign of General Lee
against the capital, new defensive works
were erected, and from these was de-
veloped the present defensive system
against attacks by fleets or armies. The
joint exercises of next week involve at
tacks by fleet on the Chesapeake bay de-
fensive system, including Fort Monroe
and forts at Annapolis. Baltimore and
other points, as we'll as attacks on the
forts on the Potomac near Washington.
With a naval base at Norfolk, Va, n strong
fleet will demonstrate against Fort
Monroe and attempt to make landing
march on Washington. The army divi-
sion Is to be used 10 prevent a landing
and to defend the capital against an
enemy approaching from any direction and
TO defend Baltimore at the several forts
built for the protection of that city
Chesapeake bay. guarded at the entrance
by Fort Monroe, is not more than
twenty miles wide, and several problems
having application to the heavy arma-
ments and torpedo systems of modern war
fare are to be settled there Others are to
be studied on the assumption that an enemy
can force entrance into Chesapeake bay.
All are of Importance.
Washington IN 1914 was a city of only
5000 inhabitants and had little to invite
attack. It is now one of the great capitals
OF the world, with population of 800, 600
w hat was yielded without effective resist
ance In 1914 would now be fought for with
fleet and army and all the resources of the
country.
To determine what more is needed In the
way of defenses and preparation tile joint
exercises of next week have been ordered
Nothing is to be taken for granted The
forts and the whole defensive system are to
De put 10 the severest practical test.

The Old and the New.

The contrast between the old and the
recent styles of school architecture can be
noticed by comparing buildings erected at
the different periods. Only few years ago
the school board required its architects to
buy as may bricks as they could for the
appropriation and put them up in the cheap
est manner possible without wasting any
of the funds in ornamentation As a conse-
quence many of the New York school
houses look like factories The same may
be said of those in Chicago. Washington
and other cities. A distinguished French
man, who recently visited Washington ex-
pressed his establishment that a great and
rich government like the United States
would permit a building like that used for
the Force School to defaee one of its finest
residence streets. He said that he sup
posed the building was used for manufac-
turing purposes until he saw the children
streaming out of 1t at noon-and the Force
School is not as bad as some of our other
school houses.
The new buildings in New York do not
accommodate so many children as the old
ones but they have esthetic influence
which must be felt upon the characters and
