THEATRICAL LETTER
 FROM FRANKLIN FYLES

New York. Nov. 3o.--Richard Walton Fully wrote "The Rose of the Rancho" and when 1t was presented by Las Angeles stock company, plainly and cheaply. all that made the audiences think 1t amounted to much was it's local theme. It's story was that, when the States took California from Mexl- co. families who had lived on the land for generations, but failed to acquire legal titles. were busted by invaders. that the Spanish American daughter of such a family. betrothed to a Spaniard, but loving an American. was caught and ground between her resentment and her passion; that the American, although seemingly taimlcal to her family rights, really was devoted to protecting them. and that in the end all turned out well for the sweethearts and the landowners.
 One year later The Rose of the Rancho" is produced here in New York as a play "by David BeIasco and Richard Walton Tully.T and that is no lie, for in the meantime Belasco has handled it over and over, and I don't doubt that there is as much of him as there Is of Fully in the text. am as sure that their combined writ Ing hasn't mado a play which, if de- pendent on it's matter and deprived of It's manner, would be very effectual.

Mir. Gilmore in @At YaIe.v

Paul Gilmore will be seen at the Montgomery Theatre next Thursday matinee and night in the new college play "At Yale" under the management of Jules Murry.
 The Jacksonville, Fla, Times of No- vember 2S says:
 "Mr. Paul Gilmore, perhaps the most popular young actor who visits Jack sonville, and a matinee idol every where, scored big success at theS Du- val Theater last night in a new. play by owen Davis. At Yale" And the play and the actor were both deserving Of it.
 "in At Yale MT. Gilmore has turned aside from his swashbuckling plays and ig putting on a typical college play. He himself appears as Dick Seeley, stroke of the Yale crew, and he makes fha character one that appeals to ev- erybody. In it is all the dash and en- argy and debohair spirit that one looks sor in MT. Gilmore's characters.

 This is to be a week of promise at Ehe playhouses Of Montgomery. We will pass Judgment for the first time on Olga Nethersole and we will also have the pleasure of seeing Paul Gilmore in his new play of college fife called "At Yale"
 It win be a fat week at the Bijou. There will be sufficient amusement at the Wells playhouse to satisfy the dis Rruntled person who has written this department of The Advertiser to know why the Bijou has been dark so long and requesting that his letter be pub aished. There is large element of the public that believes theatres are public places to be criticised publicly for the manner In which they are condUIted
 Tha gentleman who seeks the infOr- nation concerning the affairs of the Biiou manaGement might satisfy him. self by application to Manager O. A.. Neal A theatre is private enterprise and 1t is within the province of it's management to close it's doors for whole season without explanation to the public.
 The coming of Paul Gilmore is always pleasing to Montgomery people. His is a charming personality and his plays are invariably produced with great care. "At Yale" is said to be about the best thing Mir Gilmore has ever. done.
 The event of the week will be the appearance of Miss Nethsrsole in "Sapho," the French play that made her Famous. Miss Nethersole is making her first visit to the South. Wherever she has played the critics nave joined in praising her merit as an actress and the careful manner in which tine play is staged.
 The Bijou will offer "The King of Tramps" and that old ourlesdue fav- orite, 'The Black Crook" Both of these entertainments have been pro- duced in the theatres of Mir Wells in other cities and they have met with much favor.

Miss NethermoTe as asapho.y ,

Without e doubt the coming of Olga Nethersole to Montgomery Friday even- ing, when she will appear at the Mont gomery Theatre will be an event of im- portahce, because Olga Nethersole is admitted to be one of the greatest live ing English speaking actresses and the only rival of Sarah Bernhardt herself. with the addition that Olga Nethersole enjoys youth and beauty.
 The wonderful- and spectacular career Of this remarkable personality has been followed by citizens of this country for the past seven years since her first visit to the United States. Wherever she has visited her art has won for her the affectionate regard and thun- derous applause from all lovers of great acting. There are few living actresses whose emotions rings so true and thrills with such intensity as does olga Nethersole The soft cadence of her voice has been praised by an ard- ent poetical admirer, none other than Mark Twain, who said that the voice of Olga NetheFsole is like the falling of molten gold into a silver cup.
 Tlte great actress's genius Is not confined alone to acting, for her won derful costumes Gall of which she de- signs herself). are the models upon which all well dressed English and French women mold their fashions and in addition to this her powers of stage management enable her to direct the work of all her actors.
 Of her company which has been brought specially from England and each member of which is a London actor of reputed position, is one of the most perfect organizations that has ever visited this city. Taking 1t all in all the visit of olga Nethersole to Montgomery will be long remembered.
 The play to be presented by the dis tinguished actress Is her celebrated role of "Sapho.'

''The Scare Crow" and "The Merry Tin Woodman" have both been brought to veal life in famous stage impersona- tions that are startllngly real.
 In The King of Tramps," which comes to the Bijou Theatre for three nights and Wednesday matinee com R,eneing Monday, there Is young man MT.

Some people take him for a man of straw. but he doesn't care a straw for that. and his wondrhus smile Is a sight to behold" The scare crow dance as done by MT. Long is one of the hits of the show.

several curtain calls followed each of the three acts.
 The supporting company is a strong one and well balanced. Miss Leona Ball, as Dorothy Randall, the Girl in the Case; Miss Jane Stuart, as Polly Burke, Jacks sweetheart, pleased most as far as the actresses are concerned With the actors, next to the seeming " limitless popularity of Mir. Gilmore Mir. Clinton Clay. as Jack Randall Dicks chum; Mir. William TelI.aBur dette. as John Kennedy, coach; and MT. Henry R McClain. as Dave Burley, did the best work and caught the ad- miration of the audience.
 The production Is presented by Mir. Jules Murry, and this is a sufficient guarantee of the elegance and abso- Flute correctness of the scenic settings. The boat race scene is a decided nov city in stage settings and scored a big hit with every one.
 "A pleasing feature is the introduc- tion of college songs. The big hits last night were The Yale Boolha' by the company; You, My You.' by MT. Gilmore and company; Loves Young Dream by Mr. Gilmore, and the At Yale Glee Club; Love Me and the World IS Mine by Miss Frances Searth and Sons of Eli by Mir. Gilmore and the gIee club.

WHERE FADS ARE USEFVL

One of the professors in the Uni
versity of Nebraska claims that the
American people are running too
much to fads. He says they are wear
ing themselves out either chasing af-
ter physical culture, golf, tennis, auto
MODELLING, massage, diet, baths, etc.
He denOminates these things as fads.
The person gets interested in one or
more of them and spends a great deal
OF time and energy pursuing them.
No doubt a person can run. a thing
into the ground and make it harmful,
even though of itself it be a good
thing. But we believe that every per-
son should have at least one side is
sue or fad from his regular vocation.
After one gives so much time every
day to the routine of work, to turn
aside for while and take up golfing,
tennis or physical culture, or other
outdoor sport, is restful and benefic-
ial. True, some people do become
regular cranks on health culture, diet,
bathing, athletic sports, etc., but any
one Of these pursued in moderation,
with common sense, can be made of
a great deal of use, especially to the
person confined in an office all day.

WHEN THE EXILE RETURNS

God bless your heart, but there it is,
The dawn on the hills of Ireland
Gods angels lifting the nights black veil
From the sweet fair face of my sire
land.
o, Ireland, isn't it grand you look,
Like a bride in her rich adjoining,
And With all the pent up love Of my
I bid You the top of the morning"
This one brief hour pays lavishly back
For many years Of mourning,
I'd almost venture another flight,
There Is so much joy in returning
Watching out for the hallowed shore,
O. Ireland don't you hear me shout,
I bid you the top of the morning.
Ho, no. upon Cleana's shelving strand,
The surges are grandly beating,
And Kerry is pushing it's headlands out
TO give us the kindly greeting.
In to the shore the sea birds fly
On pinions that know no dropping
And out from the cliffs with welcome
charged
A million of waves came trooping.
And does not old Cove look charming
there,
Watching the wild waves motion,
Leaning it's back up against the hills.
And the tips of it's toes in the ocean.

For it's many year since I began

1t brings into play the muscles that
are unused and it drives from his
mind all business cares and sets an
other train Of thought going. Rea-
sonable attention to diet and bath
ing is also sure to improve health.
The woman who is confined to her
home the larger part of the day with
housework will find golf or tennis. or
an hour spent in physical culture a
relief to tired muscles and nerves.
Change and variety in our daily
routine is necessary to our well-being.
No matter what our regular vocation
may be, it is harmful to get into a
rut Just simply going through a
treadmill of duty day after day with
no letup. One should always try to
bring into each day some new activ-
ity, some new train of thought. It is
not a wise thing to get into a certain
groove and just simply wear ones life
away. Monotony kills quicker than
anything else. We should have our
daily work, in which we are interest
ed, put our energy and enthusiasm
into it and do it with all our might
Then, when that is done, turn to some
other form of activity or rest.-Medi-

a COSTA RIcAN VOLCANO

On the island of Costa Rico is the
remarkable li' volcano of Poas. The
crater era has an altitude of about $500
'eet' The traveller who makes the
ascent on reaching the lip of the
crater, finds himself at the brink of
a vast perpendicular-sided pit, at the
bottom of which lies a motionless
pool OF yellowish water. The sense of
aeadly stiffness and desolation is un-
disturbed by the indication of life
Inc almost vertical walls are devoid
ol even vestige Of plant creation;
not bird wings it's way through the
air; the surface of the pool is with.
out q ripple, and even the human
voice sounds strange and incongru-
ous. Suddenly the silence is broken
by a great and startling underground
rumbllng, and huge column of
dark-colored liquid is thrown to vast
helght from spot near the center
OF the. lake. The column ordinarily
rises to height varying from $50 to
oo0 feet. Almost instantly a vast
cloud of vaDor is evolved which sur
rounds the column and rises to an i'm
mense height.
A thousand feet below the lip is the
lake, or pool, along the shores Of
which it is necessary to move about
with care because of numerous con.
cealed holes filled with a Shiny sub.

will be found that in few days the
shoe will be destroyed, as the seams
cannot resist the acid action. The
lake at closer view is discovered to
be covered with clouds of vapor and
it is impossible to see for any dis
lance. Among other gases, sulphur
dioxide is present in considerable
quantities, and at times the smell be-
comes almost unbearable.
At close range the water is grayish
in color, and it is so acid that it al
most burns the tongue when tasted.
Any dark cloth moistened with the
liquid instantly becomes red and is
ultimately destroyed. The tempera-
ture at the shore, while varying con-
siderably, ranged around 115 degrees
Fahrenheit. During one of the great.
est eruptions known tremendous col
umn of dark liquid rose to an esti-
mated height of 1000 feet and was
about 300 feet in diameter. The
waves produced on the lake by such
an outburst are formidable, and long
after the eruption has ceased the
whole crater is filled with the roar
Of the troubled waters.

REASON FOR PLACING TRAIN

Way back in the fifties, when the
railroad was first built through the
western Vermont valley, Daniel Cur
it's was made station master at North
Dorset, small hamlet about ten
miles from Manchester. ':Uncle Dan,"
as he was Familiarity called, kept the
tavern, was postmaster and the i'm
portant man Of the place.
+ North Dorset was flag station;
that is, trains did not stop unless they
had passengers to leave, or a red flag
was displayed, indicating that there
were passengers to board the train.
In case there was no one to get on,
then the agent was to display white
flag. Both colors were rolled on one
stick-the red on one end and the
white on the other.
Uncle Dan" stood alone on the
platform, when the first. express train
over the road could be seen for over
a mile on a straight line fast aD
