AT THE THEATERS
AetropolItan-"Alt Heidelberq. y


The first performance of the German
Theater company last evening was de-
cided success. It must have been o great
satisfaction to the German Americans,
who promoted this attraction, and it has
surely given great pleasure to the COM
pany to play before such a large and en-
thusiastio audience. All the German ele-
ment Of this city has been in evidence
and 1T shows that German-American can
easily combine his loyalty to his adopted
country with love and interest for his old
Svaterland," and listening with joy to his
native language, spoken so pure and beau
tiful, from the best German actors ever
heard in Minneapolis.
Alt Heidelberg which, in itself is
more or less not a great drama, and only
giving Few dramatic effects, has neverthe-
less oeen expressing a sentiment Of long
ing OF the old home across the big water
satisfying the German feeling for the old
nome. The drama itself is well known
20 the public in Minneapolis, as it has
oeen presented many a time by American
companies. But may state that a more
enthusiastic and true German student
cast never has been given before audi
ences here. The good German actor ia
expressing the Teutonic "senttmentalitv''
with such enthusiasm and with such free
out ideallstic passion that it is a great
satisfaction to see him and listen to his
speech, coming so warm and true from
MS heart, and influencing the audience
with sympathy and interest from begin
ming to the end
Inc most prominent part of the sHered-
| ltary Prince Of Sachsen- Harrisburg, wa q
given by Kurt Stark, young actor of
unusual talent, dramatic strength and
still full OF sympathy and sentimentalitv
in his scenes with his instructor. Dr.
! Guettner, and in the love scenes with
| Kathe. The last act was very impressive
| and the change Of the young, frivolous
student to the representative of a royal
house was expressed with manly dignity
and still happily mixed with that boyish
sentimental grief. F'rieda Schulz entered
In the character Of Katie, the charming
waitress, with spirit and naivete, and the
expression of her true love for Karl Helm
rich in the last act was dramatic and pow
erful. Friedrich Gros as DR.. Guettner an6
Emil Mari as Exellenz Won Haugh gave
| two strong characters in the cast and de.
serve much praise. All the others sup
ported the company in worthy way and
the next performances will give then
more opportunity to display their talents
| We are looking forward with great in
terest and hope that they will be patron
lied with the same spirit and interest a.
yesterday, as they surely deserve grea
encouragement in their efforts to presen
the best in German literature with sucl
an excellent cast. "A. p. Schoen-Rene.

Cassini's Departure.

The underground wireless indicates
that Washington is merely polite in Its
expressions Of regret over. the depart
ure of Cassini. The fact is Washington
has grown pretty tired of Cassini 8
picturesque and ornate incepacity
to state proposition truthfully. We
do not feel that in saying this we cast
any reflection upon Cassini nor will
he take it so. 1t is the business Of a
Russian ambassador to deceive the gov
eminent to which he is accredited, and
when he has told all his lies and when
they have all been exposed the car re-
lieves him and sends on new man,
with new bunch Of fibs. The fact is
that Cassini has not been able to in
vent a thing in the last year and his
usefulness at Washington is at an end.
This does not mean that he is in dis
grace at home. It means, on the con-
trary, that having served his purpose
we'll he is called home for rest and
will then go to some other government
which is unacquainted with him. The
Russian diplomat is something like the
itinerant pastor When the pastor has
preached all his sermons he goes to a
far town and turns the barrel. The
Russian diplomat when he has told all
his stories goes to far country and be-
gins to relate his story backwards.

Some Enxlish Caves.

The caves In the Mendip hills in Eng
land are Of vast extent, perforating
two masses Of limestone lying on Ell
Their side Of a core Of old red sandstone
forming the center Of the Mendips.
Some are "swallet holes" absorbing
rivers, others stalactite caverns. One,
called Wookey hole, marks the emer-
gence in the form of the river Axe of
two streams ''swallowed" some miles
away. One Of these swallets is 500 feet
deep. Another cave, called Swildon's
hole, is draped with wreaths and fes-
toons Of pure white stalactite. Lambs
Eair, on the northern side Of the hills,
IL the most magnificent stalactite cav
ern in Great Britain, while adjoining
Wookey hole another chamber has Just
been found with 1900 stalactite pend
ants, all Of dazzling wilderness. The
famous spring which gives it's name to
the town Of Wells Is believed to come
through hidden caverns from the high
q parts Of the Mendips.

Older even than China, the oldest ex.
isting nation, are the cliff dwellings Of
southwestern United States, homes Of
Il race whose very name has perished
from the earth. Explorers, puxxling
through the Mancos and Casa Verde
canyons Of Arizona and New Mexico,
found the houses of this strange peo-
pie in the widest and most inaccessi-
BILE Of the mountain sides. Did the cliff
dweliers antedate the pyramids Of
Egypt? Were they Of blood relation to
the early inhabitants Of the land where
the Nile is god? Some students are
prepared to answer both questions
affirmatively and to give what is to
them abundant proof. The pottery from
their long wrecked homes suggests
Egypt, and the few inscriptions found
have similar suggestions. Mummies,
bodies wrapped in cloth, feathers from
the breast Of the turkey, have been dug
from burial places among the cliffs, and
In bone and hair much unlike the In
dian of today there is a hint Of resem-
blance to a more oriental type. II the
ctin jewellers left any descendants,
however remote, they are doubtless the
Moki and Zuni Indians, who, resem-
bling them In habits and appearance,
are their closest kinsmen. - Chicago

Almost every medieval monarch
claimed the whole or part Of the
dominions Of almost every other and
insisted on inserting his claim In his
list Of official titles. In treatises and
all official documents the whole list
was religiously copied, and as it often
happened that the two negotiating
monarchs had some Of the same titles
it became usual to insert clause in
the list, non praejudicando. In order to
indicate that, no matter how absurd,
inappropriate or untrue were the titles,
they. were understood to be inserted be
cause they pleased the monarch who
claimed them, that they did not confer
a valid claim, and SO no harm was
likely to result from their use. g.

BuOYs ON tine COAST.

TAe L&ghthOuse Department. UssR
seven DiHerenf Kinds.
Seven styles or kinds of buoys are
recognized and used by the lighthouse
department Of our government. They
are known as the nun, can, cone. Ire,
whistling bell and spar buoys, and, &C
cording to their size, the nun, can and
Ice buoys are divided into four classes.
The nun, can, cone and ice buoys are
made Of steel. The upper parts Of
these buoys are generally modelled in
the frustrum Of a cone, with the ex-
ception Of the ice buoy, which Is SIM
liar In shape to spar buoy, tapering
at the ends.
These buoys are fastened to the
ledge or bottom of the channei by
means Of chains, shackles, swivets and
ballast balls, which move freely with
the current of the water at all stages
Of the tides. The lower ends Of the
mooring chains Of these buoys are al
80 connected either to a sinker or q
mushroom anchor, which is an anchor
with saucer shaped head on a CEN
trail shank. !" ' '~S b."
The bell buoy is circular shell Of
steel, forming the main body or float
Of the buoy. The bells used are made
Of the best quality Of bell metal, cop
per 80 per cent and block tin 80 per
cent and usually weigh about 200
pounds. We believe the government
stipulation is that all bells for sea
buoys shall weigh 206 pounds.
! Perhaps the most ingenious Of all
the classes Of buoys used by the light
house board is the whistling buoy,
which is fitted with an apparatus by
which air compressed by the move
ment Of the waves ia made to escape
through tube, thus producing a
whistling sound. This apparatus con-
Sists of whistle, a check valve and
the necessary connecting pipes. The
whistling buoy is protected by an out
q guard or cage.
There are three classes of spar
bu0ys, ranked according to length and

Some Source. Of Headache.

Among the many things that produce
headache are long continued straining
OF the eyes, sudden excitement, bad air
and want of ventilation, alcoholic
drinks and variety of other causes.
Another fruitful source of headache in
men is the absurd fashion of hats
which society now imposes. Tight
boots and shoes will also cause head
ache and destroy comfort of motion
and happiness. They prevent the flow
OF blood to the extremities and cause
slight congestion of the brain. Tea
drinking is often an unsupported cause
Of headache, causing, as it does, ex-
haustion Of the nervous system, and
coffee the same thing.

to fifty feet long, down to the fourth
class, twenty feet In length, to be
placed in position In accordance with
the height OF the Incoming tide In Or
der to be effectual. These are usually
moored to q mushroom anchor. There
Is also starboard and a port hand
buoy used for marking the course Of
the channels. These are cone shaped
buoys about thirty feet in length, at
tached at the bottom end by shackles
and straps.
The colors of the buoys are inter-
esting. Red buoys mark the starboard
or right hand side of the channel COM
Ing from seward and the black the
port or left hand side. Midchannel
dangers and distractions are marked
with buoys having black and red
transverse stripes and midchannel
buoys black and white stripes. Buoys
marking wrecks are painted green.
The starboard and front buoys are
numbered from the seaward end Of the
channel toward the harbor, the black
bearing the odd and the red the even
numbers.-Bangor Commercial.

The Way the Excise Question Was
Handled BY lbs sol0ns. A3
A translation of King Hamourabi's
code, written about z. 25O years before
Christ, gives us an insight Into the life
Of the great city of Babylon at that
remote time and of the way in which
the excise question was handled by its
legislators. +,
Nearly all the dealers of wines and
liquors at that time were women, as
many of the laws translated from the
code speak only Of women as sellers Of
drinks. Severe measures were taken
against those who adulterated the
wines or mixed them with water, SO as
to safeguard the purity Of the article
for the use Of the public. The barmaid
was held responsible for all disorderly
scenes or drunkenness in her premises,
and death was the penalty for those
who did not denounce all cases Of
drunkenness to the police. Those wom-
en- who were employed in the temples
were forbidden to enter public hostel
ries under penalty of death, and even
drinking in private was forbidden to
them. 1'@"..| ,s. @%ss'
Special police officers were detailed
for the enforcement of the excise laws
in the city of Babylon, but then as well
as now the officers charged with this
duty were, If we are to believe the
code in question, either negligent in
the performance Of their duties or
too willing to accept brides from the
barmaids in the shape Of drinks or
even money.
Severe punishment is dealt out in the
document to the police officers who
shall accept brides in connection with
the enforcement Of the excise laws of
Babylon, but it is probable that then
as well as now many Of the fair saloon
keepers found way to bride the off,
