al Mixup in Prices.

The attention of the many readers
Of the Daily Press is called to the ad .
vertisement Of Bjorklund, the Sher-
man street elothier, which appears on
page two OF this issue. Yesterday
the prices for the special sales Of
suits appeared as s12, whom 1t should
have read $3.50. The mistake was
made by an unknown person and q
special detective has been put ON the
case TO solve the mystery. In the
meantime the sale Is going on and
the price Is 1880 per suit, while
they last.

cars to carry few productions about
the country, and the expense entailed
Is enormous. Better less elaborate
scenery and more plays. And, after
all, the play is the thing, not the seen
cry, and 1t Is no compliment to an actor
to feel that an audience has been be-
guiled to the theater with possibly an
even greater desire to witness a sump-
tuous production than to study his act
ing.
Managers in an effort to Guido one
another have forced extravaganza to
the limit. 1.-THE Proud Prince" cost me
SAT, 600 before the curtain rose on the
first performance, and / spent almost
as much money on "If Were King"
The day of solid wood trimmings for a
room, of solid silver properties Of the
essence Of reality in stage furnishings,
has reached its zenith, and, as / have
already remarked, we win now have a
change.
There have been entirely too much of
the real. One of the most effective
scenes have ever witnessed was In an
Irving production OF Don Qulxote,"
in which the scenery was all painted,
with scarcely a trace.of carpenter work.
I am curious to see II they win not
adopt this method at the National the
alter In New York, where they propose
to have very extensive repertory. I
am a firm believer In the National the
alter, for, while the stage is thoroughly
matter of amusement with the aver
age theater goer, still. rightly speaking,
there Is no more potent educational
force. With the regular manager nat
urally enough. as on that depends his
living, the question OF money must en-
ter largely into the production OF a
play. So that with him the educational
idea has much to contend against.
This Is where the value Of a National
theatre would come In. Secure against
the Entertainments OF commerciAlism.
Il could and should be entirely educa-
tlonal. Furthermore. and this Is i'm
peratlve II the National theater 10 to be
an educational force. the prices should
be as low as 1t would be possible to
charge.
In European cities the government
provides good theatrical entertain.
ments. In America the poor people
must pay or stay away. I have Often
wished that some Arrangement might
DO made whereby the poor could see
the better plays. In the large cities,
for instance. where there are parks ex-
cellently adapted for the purpose, why
could not open air performances be
given OF Shakespeare's plays for the
benent Of thousands who will probably
never otherwise see his dramasp
1t would not be necessary that the
performances be given by great or high
priced players. The main thing would
be to famlllarlxe the poorer classes
with the great dramatic authors The
miracle and the morality plays were
originally performed in England ON
portable stages in the public squares,
and the players went. as they do In
these days, from town to town.

PIoWinu Salt.

One Of the sights OF the Great Salt
Lake of Utah, developed by the prog
ress of scientific industry, is the sys-
tenn of immense salt-maling ponds on
the shore of the lake. At Saltair the
lake water is pumped into a great set
Ting basin, where the impurities fall
TO the bottom, and. containing much
iron, form a reddish deposit From
this basin the water is drawn off into
harvesting ponds, averaging 10000
square yards in area, and six inches in
depth. The ponds are kept supplied
with water, as the evaporation goes
on from May to September, when the
salt harvest begins. The water hav-
ing disappeared, a dazzling layer OF
salt, two or three inches thick, is
found covering the bottom of the
ponds, which is broken up with plows
before being conveyed to the mills,
where the final cushing and winnow-
ing are done.-Youth's Companion.
