BOG COVERS FARMS.
Homes of Irish Peasants Under
Water

LONDON, Dec. 31.-Graphic details
are being received of the devastation
caused by moving bog in county
Roscommon, Ireland. The bog, which
is known as that of Cloonshie1er, is
three miles from Castlerea. When it
began to slide it moved three quarters
of a mile in a few days, covering
everything in its way with peat and
water to the depth of eight to ten
feet.
The peasants are surrounded on all
sides with miles of bog and water The
inhabitants of Cloonshiever, a village
in the valley of about fifty one-story
cottages, barely escaped with their lives,
the bog having moved upon them un-
awares. Many of the peasants houses
have wholly disappeared, while all that
is to be seen of the others is the CHM
ney tops. Here and there a leafless tree
marks the spot from which well titled
farms have disappeared practically
forever.
At one point there is a lake of ten
to twelve acres, which had been formed
In the last few days by pent up mount
ain streams. Unless some means is
speedily adopted to drain off this water
1t will undermine the entire bog and
a disaster may be anticipated The
lake is steadily extending upward to-
ward houses on the rising ground. The
land attached to the holdings has al
ready been covered over by the creep
ing bog.

years, ago, called The Cave of HUI
sion' 1t received high praise from the
press; it was judged to be original in
treatment and powerful in its ending,
which, of course, was unhappy. Two
hundred copies Of the book were sold
in all; not a manager has ever asked
me for it; and today it is SO entirely
forgotten that The Walls of Jericho
was referred to by nearly all as my
first attempt at play other than a
curtain raiser"
There seems likely to be quite a.
boom in Oscar Wilde in this country
Lady Windermere's Fan" revived by
George Alexander as stop gap at the
ST. James, is one OF the rather few real
successes of the moment, and reports
from Germany regarding the produc-
tion of WiIde's poetic drama, The
Duchess of Padua," in that country are
SO enthusiastic that it is likely to be
done in London before long More-:
over, Wilde's last book, written in
Reading Jail, is just about to be pub
lished It is said to be his literary last
will and testament and is called DE

121, $50 performances to its credit,
which it is said is a greater number
than any other play ever has attained.

which were acquired in the beginning
by w. H. Peuley. have just reverted to
the author, Brandon Thomas, who has
celebrated the occasion by reviving the
piece at the Comedy-where His
Highness My Husband" recently gave
up the ghost In consequence of PEN
leys illness the part of Lord Fancourt
Babberly is being played at the Comedy

by Stanley Cooke, who has acted it in
the provinces for several years, while
the author himself plays his old part of
Col. Sir Francis Chesney.
DR.. Richard Strauss, who seems to
have conquered his critics and to be
considered now as the greatest of liv-
ing composers, is tremendously rushed
at present. Besides his duties as chief
conductor of the royal opera in Berlin
he has conducted fifteen. concerts with
in the last three weeks. His only ap-
pearance in London this year will be
on Dec. 10 with the Queens Hall or
chestra and in which his OWN works
will be the principal feature.
Obviously 'Everyman," the old mo-
rality play, which has attracted so
much attention in London and the
United States, was destined to be pro-
duced as a cantata. 1t was intro
duced in London in this form this
week with painstaking and often adj
mirable music by Dr. Walford Davies,
and with success sufficient to warn
the critics that the cantata will soon
be heard in the United States

for number of workhouse children.
She found that the same system with
regard to WOrkhouSe children obtains
in England, and most particularly in
the larger cities. She is now in COM
munication with a number Of guar
dians of the poor throughout the coun-
try offering to defray the expenses of
taking the children to the country a
few days each year. She maintains
that the monotonous lives which these
workhouse children are forced to lead,
with such limited facilities for recre-
alton are bound to have unfavorable
influences on their future. 1t is hoped
that her action may cause the local
government board and the boards of
guardians to be more generous in their
treatment Of children committed to
their care.
So extensive are the improvements
and structural alterations at Rushton
hall planned by James J. Van Aleu-
the American millionaire, who has
bought the estate that he will not be
able to take up his residence perma-
nently there for two years from now.
Housing accommodation in the little
village of Rushton is Of such a limited
character that Mr.. Van Allen is obliged
to build number Of small cottages
for those who will be employed by
him when he comes to settle down at
the hall. A residence for the engineer
who will be responsible for the electric
light installation and the heating ap-
paratus is already in course of con-
struction: The spacious lake in front
of the hall, which neglect has reduced
to an ugly swamp, is going to occupy
the special attention of the new ten
ant and is to be thing of beauty
Several species of American fish will
be brought over from the United
States and a man with expert piscato-
rial knowledge will be appointed to
look after them. Tennis courts are to
be laid out and luxurious new stables
are to be built. Americans will be
glad to know that the famous tri-
angular lodge where Tresham and his
fellow conspirators held their meetings
prior to their journey to London to
blow up the houses of parliament is
to remain as it is. AT the sale a gen
tleman on behalf of the new tenant,
bought the old oaken benches which
provided seating accommodation for
the conspirators and these are to re-
main exactly as they were at that his
toric period. An old grandfather's
clock for which a London curiosity
dealer offered $1,000 was also retain
ed by Mr.. Van Allen. Lady Mary.

ANCIENT BEASTS ARE
FOUND IN FOSSIL BEDS
One Is Specimen of Great Size
Hitherto Unknown to Science

BERKELEY, Cal, Dec. 31.-Impor-
tant discoveries in western fossil beds
were announced by Prof. John C. Mer-
riam, head of the archaeological de-
partment Of the University of Cali
fornia, before the Cordilleran section of
the geological society of America in the
sixth annual meeting A remarkable
specimen Of the very early ichthyo-
saurus was unearthed in the middle
triassic limestones in Nevada. After
being chisseled out of the hard lime
stone matrix in which the bones were
embedded, the specimen showed the
greater part of the anterior half of
the body, including the skull, vertebrae
and front limb or paddle, the upper
arm and forearm of the latter being
very perfect and distinct.
Another important find was that
made in the Samuel cave in Shasta
county The specimen was a new
sheeplike form of enormous size, ,hither-
to unknown to science 1t consisted of
the greater part of the skeleton of
an ANIMAL as large as an elk but with
sheep and goat affinities. The most
noticeable feature of the fossil is the
horns, which are so large and rnagnifi-
Gently formed that they make the ami.
NAL distinctive among orinae, at least
of any type known here.

WON'T QUAIL BEFORE
HOSTILE AUDIENCE
Maxim Gorky Refuses to Take
Kisses in a Chastened
Spirit
Special Foreign Service I.

Special Foreign Service
3 LONDON, Dec. 81 Maxim Gorky
has found way of dealing with
hostile theater audience which ought
to commend itself to playwrights
ought to commend itself to playwrights
and actor-managers the world over.
Heretofore it has been etiquette for the
dramatist whose appearance after the
final curtain has been greeted with
eboos," Kisses or cat calls to take it
all in a chastened spirit and to retire
apologetically and with a crestfallen
bow. But Gorky has changed all that.
For if the telegraphic accounts are to
be believed, an audience which Missed
the first performance of his new play,
"The Rustics," in. ST. Petersburgs the
other night, was treated in truly with
ering fashion by the author.
g "The curtain was raised" says the,
cabled account, and Gorky appeared
alone, his head thrown back, a look of
contempt on his countenance. his fists
clenched and his face Hvid. as if he
wished to fling in the face of the peo-
pie deadly insult
1t sounds effective. For instance
how much more inspiring it would have

which "booed" her recent first night
had adopted the simple expedient Of
tW1ddling her fingers applied to the
end of her nose! David Belasco fed
precipitatelY before the London booers
OF Zaza, and even William Gillette
ventured only to make a sardonic re-
marx or two When the Lyceum gallery
ties fell upon Sherlock Holmes" SO
1t VIII be impossible to say what will
pc the effect when a Jeerlng crowd in
thls country beholds Its Would-be VIC
tim with, say, his shlrtsleeves rolled up
or his fists clenched in the Gorky man
ner. Perhaps the day would have been
saved had Clyde Fitch appeared with
his head thrown back, his face hvid
and look of contempt on his coun-
tenance," on that memorable first
night of The Cowboy and the Lady,
or had III. v. Esmond, instead of stink
ing out of the sight of those who had
booed when We Were Twenty-one'
stood up to them manfully and put out
his tongue!
The dinner given to Edward Terry
the other night in honor of the veteran
actors first visit to the United States
was a great success, and by far the
most Interesting feature of it was a
letter from A. w. Pinero, in which the
author of Lefty and "The Second
Mrs. Tanqueray" paid high comp1i-
ment to Terry, and, incidentally,
higher one to American theatergoers
Il trust wrote Pinero, in apologize
ing for not being present at the dinner
that Mr.. Terry will have prosperous
season in America. He will at least
find the keenest and most intelligent
audiences in the world" And of Terry
