pictures of bird life that are full OF inter-

ihere are, unfortunately. very few that
have the time and qualities requisite for
success, for the pursuit involves many
weeks of arduous and often dangerous
work. The resulting Photographs that aie
tNniolted are frequently secured at alti-

Woes Of the Gallery Gods"
the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
The writer is one OF those theatergoers
Familiarity known as gallery gods" who,
because they are not overburdened with
this worlds goods, must submit to the
manifold inconvenience and discomforts
imposed by the local theater arrangements.
To secure anything better than standing
room in the gallery, where the prices are
inexcusably immoderate, ladies' and gentle
men-often there are quite as many of the
former as of the lateral the sacrifice of
much pride and self-respeet, must form in
line along the street curbing far in adj
vance of the time fixed for the opening of
the doors. Here they must stand through
all degrees Of temperature. uncovered to the
pitiless elements. When the appointed
hour arrives and tickets have been pur-
chased there begins a mad rush for seats
like unto nothing the writer has ever seen,
unless ii be the wild scramble of home
seekers in the far west. Having assembled
long, winding and seemingly interminabie
stairway to the accompaniment of a pande-
monium, one energies, GREATNESS, into
gallery at times, wholly inadequate. poorly
ventilated and eternally carpetless and fur
nished only with plain hard chairs. pro-
yided not even w tn the conventional hat re-
ceiver Once established therein the gallery
god cannot leave his coveted seat with the
certainty of recovering same. After each
performance he reviews the complex dis
comforts he has endured, even after er-
fecting a perilous and difficult entrance,
and upon quitting the playhouse by the
same stairway, winding round and round,
until he all but despairs of reaching the
open, he determines that he will not again
indulge his Thespian tendencies until such
time he afford costlier and more
commodious accommodations. But good
plays and players are veritable lodestones
and appeal with overmastering eloquence
to the habitually poor lover of the classical
drama Accordingly, his resolution of the
previous week forgotten. or temporarily
abandoned, once more he subjects himself
TO the same discomforts and follows his
subsection with the same consequent re-
solve.
The writer would recommend and earnest
ly advocates any one of the following three
ameliorative expedients: Prices to corre-
spond with the equipment, or. If existing
prices must be maintained. the cuf-ailment
of the present Inconvenience. togT Their with
provision for more comfortable. II not ele-
CANT. fixtures, or else the reservation OF
seats and Issuance of coupons that one may
procure gallery accommodations even days
In advance of any desired matinee or even
ing performance and retain his seat by vir-
tue of said coupon.

the seamen hereabout fear the dangers into
which the searchlight sirens might lure
them was evidenced at O'Clock yesterday
morning. when the captain of a tug tow
ing string of railroad barges to Cape
Charles whistled sharply and most dis
t~essfully when one of the Fort Monroe
lights caught him off Old Point, and he
continued whistling as long as the search
light was held on his pilot house, the
sounds reminding observers of the antics of
a pig caught under a fence Each search

So delicate are the adjustments of the

the largest of them weigh a ton or two,

Special From a STAFF Correspondent
FIT. MONROE, Va. June 13-The fleet
made Its second descent today on the
Notifications here just before 1 o'clock
this afternoon. The Texas and the Hornet
came In from the direction of Cape
Charles and steamed slowly toward the
forts. The batteries at Fort Monroe and
Fort Wool opened on them immedia tely.
The vessels were absolutely silent and
steamed passed all the works up the
roads to point opposite the Chamberln
Hotel when they turned and put to sea-
The weather is very heavy. A heavy
mist enveloping the entire roads. Just
what the object of the ships was in COM
Ing In at this hour it Is difficult to learn
but 1t Is thought to be a reconnaissance
for the purpose of locating the mine fields
and searchlight stations. 1t is believed
that the fleet was put out of action by the
mortar battery, as it was this morning.
The mortars make noise and it is
extremely difficult to determine where
they are being used. The suggestion that
they were used this afternoon is based on
the fact that the ships did not fire a gun
and that all guns on the Texas were
pointed downward toward the water.
