"FLORODORA" ONCE MORE.
New Faces in the Revival OF the Musical

New Faces In the Revival OF the musical
Comedy At the Broadway.
With the circus at Madison Square Gar
den and "FloIo1oIa' once more on Broad
way New Workers ought 10 feel quite at
home this spring. Like the other show,
the revival Of the familiar musical comedy
at the Broadway Theatre last night had
been hailed by the management az greater,
gIander aud more gorgeous" than ever,
and half Of the description Is true, for the
larger stage gave excellent chances for an
increased chorus.
All Of the principals save Cyril Scott
are new TO the play, but none is new 70

Lddy Holgrood. To say that her dancing
was better than her singing is not meant
as a reflection on her voice, for even in
such familiar numbers as when Leave

an effort was to be made 20 bring together
the original six. Later an eIpectant
public was informed that all or nearly all
OF them had either won fortunes in Wall

anxious TO keep tabs on the fortunes Of
the present pretty maidens. their names
are added: Gertrude Douglas, Elsa Rein

70 The old play Is well sta ged, and enough
new musical numbers have been added TO
give those who have seen II before an ex-
clisefto see it again. TO many. however, a
new sextet win be a sufficient magnet
to fill the house for a time.
Rvalin the sextet and making the great
hit Of the latter half Of the piece came half
a dozen English dancers, specially brought
over by Fisher and Ryley for this pro-
duction.

The rouge runs 90.
One Of the best effects was provided
by a sextet which sang a song about

Despite the pretensions of President Roosevelt that he is president of all the people," those who have watched affairs at the White House have noted that he has weakness for men of aristocratic birth. Aside from Post master-General Cortelyou and Secre- tary Shaw, who is about to retire from the treasury portfolio, all the members of his official household come from distinguished families. The president does not only carry out this in the se- lection of his cabinet, but in his minor appointments. All of his West Point and Annapolis appointments have either been from so-called artistocratic families or sons of great men. His latest appointments of this character was the selection of grandson of the late President Grant and the Son of the late General Fitzhugh Lee as social aids at the White House. As such they will assist at all the social func- tions and will to a degree give tone to all state occasions.

That there is not now any harmony between the reorganized state leaders and the administration is evinced by the refusal of President Roosevelt to go to the rescue of the party in this raIFs state elections. No other repub- hcan president has ever refused to aid his party in state election, says a Washington writer. Especially has this been true when the party was in danger of meeting with defeat, as is the republican party of New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio. These states are recognized as being Rpn6Yfcah states, and in former years the admin istration regarded their loss to the party as a rebuke to the republican president in power. But President Roosevelt does not appear to take this view of the situation. He assumes the attitude of being wiser than his party and refuses to support the state ma chimes. Especially is this true of Pennsylvania, where the Philadelphia machine is attempting to intrench itself against the assaults of the inde- pendent republicans and the democrats. Previous to re-entering the cabinet, Secretary of State Root, who is regard. ed as the closest friend and advisor of the president, made an open attack upon the Philadelphia organization. He referred to the republican leaders in Philadelphia as boodlers and thugs who were masquerading as repubh cans. This attack is looked upon as coming virtually from the president and a real expression of the attitude oi the republican administration. While the appeals for help coming from New York and Ohio were not met with sucf disfavor at the White House, 1t ii stated that Senator Dick, who is chair man of the Ohio state committee, ant Governor Odell of New York received very little encouragement from thu president.

MEANING OF NATURE STUDY
It Is Not Necessary to Own a Farm
 na in Order to Enjoy It to the Fullest. Eia

The first necessity in nature study Is to become acquainted with some local ity-say, with a farm. It does not mat ter, says the National Magazine, how small. how commonplace, how near the city-the nearer the better, provided there are trees, water, fences and some seclusion. If your own cabin can be in the middle of such spot-that Is ideal For there is no make-believe when you buy field or piece of woods and settle down there to stay. Nature respects you. You have taken her into your confidence. She will take you into hers and in the course of few seasons (il you will limit the size of your garden] you will begin to discover what multi. tude of interesting things come with tht place that were not mentioned in tht deed.
 Owning farm, of course, is not neces. sary. Sometimes I am quite convinced that for pure and lasting joy in nature one should not possess an acre. One. you have looked upon land of your own once you have trodden upon earth tha belongs to you and all your Sundays will be spent looking and walking there.

SEA sERPENTs NO MYTH.
Reptile Relative of the Shark Said by Scientists to Be the Real
 Article.

| Along the seaside many jokes are cracked about sea serpents. On the whole, most people think that the serpents exist only in the imagination of people just for their entertainment. It is surprise to them when you tell them that scientific men with knowl- edge of the subject say that the sea serpent is not myth, but living truth. Dr. Burt c. Wilder, former worker with the famous Agassiz and now the well-known zoologist at Cor nell university, says that not only do sea serpents inhabit the ocean but that the Cornell museum exhibits one of the only two that have ever been yard, and each one is valued at some thing like $1,500 Both of them were captured in the deep waters of the Indian ocean. Dr. Wilder exhibited Cornell's specimen last spring at a meeting of zoologists at Philadelphia. The reptile is relative of the shark, and for name the scientists have dubbed it Chlamydoselachus an- guineus, which translated into plain English means a shark-like snake. It is not very long, covering few inches
 over six feet, but the snakelike ap- pearance is at once striking. The head is long and fiat on top, and the neck is scarcely noticeable, enlarging slightly into what might be called the body. The body then tapers into a sharp, finny tail. The structure of the whole body is built on a plan to re- sist enormous water pressure, as Dr..
 Wilder points out. He says that it is a true sea serpent and that without
 the slightest doubt it has relatives Of far greater dimensions.

RESCUED FROM RAFT
Ship Van Name and King
 Foundered Of Hatteras.
CAPTAIN WENT INSANE AND WAS LOST
Six Out of Eight of Crew Perished of Cold and Exposure-vessel De stroyed by Gale Owned at
 New Haven, Conn.

BOSTON, Oct. 1.-Two members Of the crew of the New Haven schooner Van Name and King have arrived here on board the schooner Stillman F. Kelly, having been rescued from raft on Cape Hatteras after their yes- sel had foundered day or two before.
 Eight of the crew suffered so fear fully from exposure, hunger and thirst that six of them either died outright, were washed away or, crazed by their fearful experience, hurled themselves into the sea.
 Captain Maxwell, the commander, went insane from exposure. The ship was beaten to pieces by gale of the South Carolina coast on Oct. 6.
 Captain Maxwell had Illusions that his father was coming to rescue him In a boat, and then, as if directing the boat alongside, he stepped into the sea.
 The spectacle of men throwing them selves into the sea proved too much for the German engineer. and few hours after Captain Maxwells death the raft was frightened for the fourth time when the crazed engineer jumped into the waves.
 The two men who lived through the five days and were rescued from the raft are William Thomas and William c. Warnock and hail from Antigua. British West Indies. The six who, one by one, succumbed were: Captain Will liam A. Maxwell of New Jersey. Mate E. A. Chase, home unknown; engineer, a German, name unknown: c0lored steward. name unknown: seamen VII liam Grizell and Alfred Arthur. color ed. both of Jamaica.
 The lost schooner was owned prinei- paIly by New Haven men and was a three masted vessel used in the coast ! lumber trade.
