A. FABLE FROM T

A nightingale wooed, in q garden green,
The loveliest rose that ever was seen,
And he sang for her, with his wilding art,
The tremulous plant of a wistful heart.
Dearest nightingale said the little rose.
Such a wonderful gift you songs dis
close,
That l long for this world to share with
me .
The magical charm of your melody"
The nightingale thrilled with a joyous
pride,
AS he flew to the tree-tops far and wide
And p~laintive and tender and sweet he
sang,
Till the whole green earth with his praises
rang.
But the rose no echo nor tidings knew,
And paler and frazier each day she grew;
Yet, bravely she answered the jeering
rain
Nay, hush! for my love will come back
again."
When the first wild JOY of his song was
spent,
The nightingale pack to the garden went.
Dear rose, l have brought you my
fame!' he said,
But no answer came-for the rose was
dead.
Charlotte Becker, in Puck.

THE MEASURE OF A MAN.

Lovers or good drama VIII nave
the pleasure of Witnessing THE
Measure of a Man." Cora Maynard's
great play, which will be e e at
Weber's theatre, New York, begin
1ing Thursday, October IS. The
greatest play of its kind now before
he public" is the verdict of Augustus
Thomas, the well known dramatist
who was present at the dress rehear-
,al. The production, under the man
lgement of Daniel V. Arthur and j.
Fred Zimmerman, Jr., will enlist the
services of such prominent players as
e. M. Holland, Percy Haswell, Mary
Hall, Robert Drouet and George Hol-
land, supported by a strong company.
Not only have Messrs. Arthur and
Zimmerman abundant confidence in
he merit of '"The Measure of a Man,
but also had the other leading man
lgers of the country, as evidenced by
their efforts for the rights of the play
when it was produced in New York
by the students Of the dramatic
school. Miss Maynard, known here
tofore only as a magazine writer,
wrote 1.-THE Measure of a Man" ex-
)ressly for amateur production, and
so pronounced was its success that
Immediately all the best theatrical
producers of New York sought the
play, which finally fell to Messrs.
Arthur and Zimmerman. When MI.
Thomas saw the production he de-
clared not only that it was the great
est play of its kind, but that it was
the best play ever written by a wom-
This is a significant statement
as 1t does from one of the
BEST dramatists of the day.
The play has been produced at the
1arrick theatre, Philadelphia, where
it was received in such a way as to
Indicate that it is one of the greatest
plays of the decade. Free from melo-
iramatic subterfuges it deals vitality
with the lives and loves of the world
people of today's America.

RObcrtsOn and EIIiOtt,

H. B. Irving and Dorothea Baird
will end their run at the New Am
sterdam theatre Saturday evening,
the 9th inst, and on Tuesday, the
S0th inst, will be followed by Forbes
Robertson and Gertrude Elliott in
George Bernard Shaw's play, Caesar
and Cleopatra" which he calls "a
history" Mr.. Robertson will play
Caesar" and Miss Elliott "Cleopa-
ira" They will be supported by a
large company made up of Englisl
and American actors. The produe-
ton will be a very elaborate one. Mr..
Robertson's performance of Caesar
will undoubtedly prove as captivating
as his Hamlet"
1.-THE Prince of India.
Notwithstanding that Klaw & Err
hangers production of "Ihe Prince of
India" has made the greatest hit
scored in New York since the presen-
tation of it's companion play, Ben
Hur," it will remain at the Broadway
theatre but five weeks longer. It's
original booking was for nine weeks.
This time will terminate November
"a, when it will be transferred to an
other city to fill another contract and
give way to Anna Held and her great
company in "a Partisan Model -
Klaw & changers policy of always
transferring a play to fill a contract,
no matter how great its success, will
be followed in this instance as in the
past, although 1.-The Prince of India"
could undoubtedly remain at the
Broadway till the coming spring,
playing to capacity.
Too much con nouar ho eoid -
praise of this production. 1t tells a
great story and is superbly mounted
and acted. A better cast has never
been seen on Broadway, and every
personality of General Wallace's
story is realized in the principal play
ers. In the tragic scene of the third
act where s'The Prince of India pre-
diets the downfall of the empire of
the Greeks and the capture of Con-
stantinople by the Turks under Ma
hommed, Emmett C%orrigan carries
one of the most powerful dramatic
scene ever presented on the stage
with wonderful realistic effect.

THE RUSSIAN BUDGET.
Many Interesting Financial Facts Are
Revealed

An examination of the budget statement,
which was issued at st. Petersburg Thurs
day night, reveals many interesting facts.
Although the stock OF gold in the State
Bank and abroad at the opening and
close of the war increased from $751;
10000 to s672 100000 the gold circulation
In the country in the same period decreased
S45. 100000, while the paper Increased $224-
100000. The statement explains that all
The payments in Manchuria were In pa
per. the entire proceeds of the foreign
loans being employed to pay foreign obliga-
tons. and the interest On the public debt.
Exclusive Of the loans being negotiated
to balance the budget of 1905. the war re-
suited in an increase of the interest charges
from 100000 to s211, 100000.
No details are given of the lump sum of
$202, SOC, 600 allotted for the liquidation of
the war expenses
A credit OF 100000 Is assigned for the ex-
penses of the national assembly and there
Is slight increase in the credits for the
holy synod and imperial household. The
latter is given $S,OO0,O0O and the army credit
Is raised from $1S3 100000 to S1S7 900 900,
but the general expenses for the army are
reduced, as the army credit includes SIS, 800
600 for improvement Of the pay and food of
the soldiers. The navy credit is reduced
from $58O00, 600 to $50. 600, 600 and there is
no credit for new construction. The $22,-
600 which is under that head is as
signed for the completion of Ships con-
tracted for or purchased abroad during
the war. The interior departments credit
is raised from $53, 100000 to $65, 500 600
Practically all the increase consists of $12,-
5000 for the police of villages In the coun-
try districts. The total sum appropriated
for police and gendarmerie Is $4S, 500 900.
The credit for the department of justice Is
raised from S24 500 600 to $4,000, 600. The
increase Is assigned to the courts and pris-
ons. The department of education credit
is raised from $21, 500 900 to SD 600. O0O the
ayrtr bofp for ursl,r
The imperial stud gets its usual allow
ances OF $4,000 and a credit of 81 $50, 600
is assigned to the committee having charge
of the orphans of the war, which Is under
the special patronage of the heir to the
throne. Summarizing the budget the state
ment points out that one of the good fea-
lures of the outlook Is the exceptionally
fine condition of the winter grain.
This is the last budget which will not be
subject to revision by the national assem-
