The 0rCheStra's Work.

In conversation with Musical Direc-
tor Hcsmer, that gentleman said he
felt more than gratiied at the way the
opera house orchestra had taken hold
of their work. He related how in the
Astoria, Oregon, fire most OF his or
chestrations had been burned and how
since that time he had had little time
to replace them. The orchestrationS
used in Logan were a mixture OF those
he had written himself, some he had
borrowed and the remainder were
water.logged, smoky remnants picked
up after the conflagration. 1t is al.
ways the rule TO send orchestratior 5
at least week or two ahead of the
show that the house orchestras may
work on them, but in this instance 1t
was impossible, and the local orchestra
had only an hours practice before each
performance. Mr. HoSmer said he ap.
preciated the extraordinary difficulty
under which the local orchestra labor
ed, and while the result of their com.
bined efforts was not sufficient to
support the company properly,
1t was not their fault, il was

Good Comedy.

In Claude Amsden, the man who APP

"Devilshoof' in"The Bohemian Girl"
"Beppo" in Fra Diavolo" and Gas
pardr in "Chimes of Normandy" the
Roscians have comedian of no small
calibre. In the first, Amsden did not
rise to the heights of neWolf Hopper
in this part, but he was more than ac-
ceptable. In the limited opportunity
"Devilshoof" gave him, he kept the
house in an uproar, / ut as "Beppo"
he scored his greatest success. In his
double turn with "Glacomo," he did
the finest bit of burlesque and all
round comedy work that has been
seen in the local opera house. The
audience refused TO be satisfied, re-
calling the two several times, wearing
them out completely, and themselves
as well, for many sides were aching
with excessive laughter. But Amsden
is not less satisfactory IN tragedy. AS
the miser "Gaspard" in The Chimes Of
Normandy, he gave splendid inter
probation that called forth hearty APP.

Give Your Lungs . Bath.

Returning from the theatre via the
Subway, DR.. Henry Russell, of the
upper West Side, with his wife and a
neighbor whom he had met on the
train, walked over to Riverside Drive
at the physicians request, to "take a
lung BATH" as he expressed it.
"Our lungs, quite as well as our
bodies, need baths" said he. "Espe-
cially do they need bath after we
have sat for three or four hours in the
impure and stale air Of theatre or
church. Then, if We could see them,
our lungs would look as unsightly as
the face of a coal HEAVIER looks after

lungs. and to battle them the head
should be thrown back, and through
the nostrils pure, fresh air should be
inhaled till the lungs are distended 70

Hudson had little confidence IN the
Judges legal acuuirements. he .cr1tl'

a manner easily understood by all

The Judge, with judicial look OF
sternness. raised himself from his
chair and said: "Mr. Hudson, II you
do not speak more respectfully OF the
decisions Of this Court, I shall at
once commit you for contempt OF

Hudson arose, with great assump-
ton Of dignity, and, raising his voice

Florida's Ostrich Farm.

The regular plucking season IS on
at the ostrich farm, says the Jackson
vile (Florida) Times-Union. Birds
are caught, brought in from the dn.
ferent parts Of the farm, and In view
OF the visitors are shorn OF their.
plumage. At this season OF the year
the best feathers have reached tnear
full growth.
It requires three men to drive, cor
raj and catch the birds, and two 10
hold them in their place while the
feathers are secured. The general
opinion that these feathers are pulied
from the body Is incorrect, as snort
stout cutters are used and sll OF four.
inches OF. the stem Is left in the BODY
of the bird, which afterward dries aad
drops from its socket. These featn.
ers are eagerly sought for In the mar.

THE SLEEPING SICKNESS,

Rapid Spread In Africa.

Prof. Koch on Its Origin, and lts
Rapid Spread In Africa.
Prof. Robert Koch lectured in Ber.
lin on the Sleeping Sickness" which
he investigated for several months In
Equatorial Africa during the year
1905. Emperor William and a distin-
guished company were present.
The malady, said the professor, had
been known on the west coast OF
Africa since the beginning Of the last
century, and it had spread to tie
north shore Of the Victoria Nyanza
and threatened German-Africa. Prob
ably two hundred thousand persons
mad died from the disease. He had
found whole villages on the shores of
Victoria Nyauza to be empty, and tho
population Of some groups OF Islands
had died to the last soul. The infec-
tion was spread from human to hu-
man by the sting Of a fly, the glossina
palpalis, somewhat larger than an or
dinary fly. Tho poison Affected the
usual health for several days, and
then the sufferer was attached with
fever, became inconerent, the glands
were swollen, the patient became e1.
feebled, and eventually was seized
wita the sleep mania.
Professor Koch knew Of no remedy
for this disease, but hoped the in
lection might be ended by the exter-
minaton Of the insect which propa-
gated it by slowly burning the under
growth at its favorite home.
The professor will return to Africa
soon and continue his studies OF trop3
isal diseases. -..
