The Multitudinous Seas.

The recent death of Madame Janau- schek recalls one memorable night when this gifted actress essayed her famous role of Lady Macbeth.
 It was an evening some years since that the play was presented in the charming then an old woman, but graceful as a girl, and full of the divine fire of tragedy. The opera house was big oarn-like af- fair, roofed with tin and a fierce storm ragged during the better part of the play. Stage lightning and tin thunder were not needed that night. The rain rattled down. the wind shrieked. and several times completely drowned out the voices of the actors.
 One scene in particular was most strilk- ing, when those on the stage, waiting for the din to subside, stood like sta tues for some time, then one by one re- tired, leaving the majestic elements in full sway and wild control. After a while the sharpnel and the storm ceased to roll about us, and the glorious lines of the great Bard were resumed.
 The dear old actress has passed away but the memory of that night will not be forgotten by those who were thrilled by her passionate portrayal of the wicked and ambitious but royal Lady Macbeth. "Hark! l laid their daggers ready. he could not miss them.'

demanded constitutional government
 in season and out of season, and he
 is endeayoring in a wholly legitimate manner to arouse his inert fellow citi- zens-perhaps, We should say. his fe,- low serfs. No charges were lodged against him by the police. Such lit tie matters are not at all necessary in Holy Russia" He was soon released, without trial, without indictment of any sort-the bureaucrats simply did not dare to hold him in prison. By locking him up they have, however, given him wider field, and Gorky will no doubt improve his opportunities. Just as they dare not harm hair on glorious Tolstoi's head so the bureau crats dare not shut Gorky up. His vivid pen will be ten times as power full hereafter as it ever had been be- fore he was locked up, and he Is in full vigor and strength with many years before him in which to work for his fellow men.

Our Parks.

Tt is highly gratifying to every thought ful citizen of Birmingham that the city administration Is interested in the sub jeet of parks" said a man possessed of much civic pride.
 q notice that Mayor Drennen is to have here on Monday G. A. Parker, a repre- sentative of the American Civic associa- ton. who is to inspect all of our city parks and make suggestions for planning and improving them. This is a step in the right direction. The city has wisely provided park places, and now they must not be overlooked, Parks are a necessity in all large or growing cities for beauty, comfort and health. So necessary. indeed, tat in many cities the authorities are purchasing plots already occupied by buildings at great expense ana convert ins the lots into parks.
 Such was the case in Kansas City, wtere the people voted to tax them seves for such expenditures"

Mr. PulliZnr,s School.

Mr. Pulitzer announces that the school of journalism which he pro poses to endow and to organize through Columbia university is to be postponed until after his death occurs. He says he has already paid over to the university million of dollars, an1 a second million or more will be paid to the university when MT. Pulitzer dies-an event, let us hope, that will be long postponed.
 A school of journalism should be started with deliberation and long preparation. It is practically an un- tried scheme. Cornell did conduct a school in which newspaper men were hurried out to order, but it never be- came popular or useful.
 The truth is, schools cannot make newspaper men out of non-newspaper mentalities. Culture and literary skill do not newspaper men make. They are handy things in the hands of a newspaper man, but they are at the most incidental.
 A newspaper man must have nose for news, and, in order to succeed, a school of journalism must be able to put nose for news on a man who has common everyday non-newspaper nose. The substitution of noses is not an easy task, and no school has ever been able to accomplish it. None per haps ever will.
 A nose for news enables man to seize a piece of news as soon as t comes to him, to weigh it, and to give it proper expression. It is this very knowledge that differentiates a news paper man from all other men. A lit erary man or a man of many tongues and vast scientific requirements is not a newspaper man unless he has also nose for news. If Mir. PulitZer's school could be confined to those whc are born with a nose for news all would go well, but it is difficult to sec how that line could be drawn in ] school open to all corners. It is equally difficult to see how an examining board could separate tho sheep from the goats in the admission stage. In fact and in short a school of journal l ism is exceedingly tentative and i'm mensely conjectural.

WlNTER-A DIRGE.

By Robert Burns The wintry wind extends his blast And hail and rain does blaw; Or the stormy north sends driving forth The binding sleet and shaw: While tumbing brown, the burn comes
 down
 And roars frae bank to brae; And bird and beast in covert rest, And pass the heartless day ''The sweeping blast. the sky oercast," The joyless winter day sLet others fear, to me more dear Than all the pride of May; The tempest's howl, it sootheo my soul. My griefs 1t seems 70 join: The leafless trees my fancy please, Their fate resembles mine! Thou Power Supreme. whose mighty
 scheme
 These woes of mine fulfill, Here, firm. rest. they must be best, Because they are Thy will! Then all l want co. thou grant This one request of mineD Since to enjoy Thou dost deny, Assist me to resign!

Local Symphony Orchestra.

q am glad to see that the number of professional orchestra musicians in Birmingham increases from year to year. '' said music lover, who is familiar with orchestral conditions in many large cities.
 Five years ago there were only two good first violin players here. Today there are four or five. A few years ago it would have been impossible to have as- sembled a local orchestra of sufficient talent to play a Beethoven symphony. Today an orchestra of twenty-six or twenty-seven pieces, fairly we'll balanced, capable of performing a classic overture, or symphony. could be organized. And this speaks well for Birmingham. There is hardly city of 100000 population in the United States where as many as twenty professional orchestra musicians make a living.
 q hope to see before great while a symphony society organized in Birming- ham that would give series of high class concerts during the season."

Winter in New York.

The New York papers say this has literally and emphatically been an ear-muff winter. "The average city man," says the Tribune, "detests car laps as much as he does those old fashioned wr.sters worn by his great grandfather, and when he puts them on, making of himself a strange look ing creature, it is indeed cold" The street vendors of ear muffs have had a thriving trade in them this winter in New York.
 Every storm and cold wave has this season localized itself in New York, spilling there nearly all the snow it held. All told the clouds have sifted in and through New York-the subway only excepted-46 inches of snow, and if car muffs should not be worn in 46 inches of snow, where in- deed, should they be worn?
 The Tribune need not go out of it's way to declare ear muffs the most hideous protection ever designed to shelter mans members from tho cold"
 Ear muffs are not at all hideous whenever or wherever they arc needed. They are needed in all win ters in Siberia, and this winter they are needed in New York. The snow belt has shifted from Northern New York to Manhattan Island, and the ear huff trade has been shifted according ly. The Tribune should not cry out against the weather and the laws of trade. It should accept things as they come, even if they come in the form of blizzards and car muffs.

Condition of the Staue,

John Corbin of Scribner's Magazine theatre Ills. She is an important patron. She is numerous-so numer ous that what she wants is supplied by managers, who are quick to discern the tendencies and inclinations of those who go to the box office. The box office, in other words, dictates to the stage, as it ever has and ever will. The matinee girl is more influential today than she was twenty-five years ago, because she is relatively more nu- merous,
 Now, what does the matinee girl de- sire? MT. Corbin says the matinee girl adores the individual actor, and she wants happy endings on the stage. She has no taste for the vital, serious drama. Managers and dramatists are thus brought face to face with the matinee girl. They can attract reg. ular ,theatregoers by good work that will promote the artistic culture of the nation, but such theatregoers will not sfll the theatre from pit to dome. MT Corbin sees no way to head off the matinee girl except through an en- dowed theatre, and subsidies are not good things anywhere or in any enter prise.
 Y But without an endowment MT. Cor bin thinks plays that have a "heart interest which will exploit a matinee idol will monopolize the stage, ai- Though it must be admitted that each season shows some valuable excep- tons. If the manager would show a little more courage he might perhaps prevail upon the matinee girl to ac- cept something better.
 Let it at least be said of the matinee girl that she is no longer responsible for the particular inanity known as musical comedy. She may have looked upon its glitter at first with q favorable eye, but she has tired of VI and it's ending can be forseen. If the petted stage favorite and the play
