Barney. one of the eranizers of the New Theater association. it was dis stinctly stated that no director had as yet been decided upon, but that the best man available would be se lected. It is difficult, however, to rec oncile this statement with the fact that all official news regarding this important enterprise is given out at the Metropolitan Opera house, and by one of MT. Conrieds personal rep. resentatives. It would seem hardly possible that Mir. Conreid-to whom the appointment to the directorship of such theater is as dear as the apple of his eye-would permit his own office to be used to further rivals interest. Certainly MT. Mans field, who is one of the most disting- uished and successful among living American actors should make an ex- cellent director for such a theater. A scholar himself, with considerable literary achievements already to his credit, it is likely that our American Mo'iere would at once create for the new theater fine literary standard while his experience and great ability as an actor should enable him to or ganize such stock company of such all-round excellence and homogeneity that this city has not enjoyed since the days of Lester Wallack. So far as his equipment for the post goes,
 Mir. Mansfield would be the ideal man. Whether, however, MT. Mans fields temperament would allow him to exercise that patience and for bearance which the director of such a theater must have, if he is to keep his actors and obtain the best results is another question. It is we'll known that Mr. Mansfield is not the easiest of men to get along with. It has been said that he is apt to be irrita. h'o and unreasonable with his subor- di"ates. This attitude-due often. to a bad digestion-would not of course be tolerated for an instant by play CTS of the standard we should ex- meet to see in the New Theater But if MT. Mansfield will bury his little eccentricities and bring to his post onlvfhis great talent, his would be a

Ants Who Raise Grain.

In one of the South American coun- tries there are ants which, besides car rying out in their minute way their wonderful social and commercial econ omy, help the natives by raising grain for them. Of course they do not do it Intentionally, for their object is to pro- vide food for themselves. They take the ripe seeds which fall on the ground and. burrowing under the earth, bury these seeds in the dirt for food for the rainy season. When the rains have passed the seeds which the ants have not eaten burst their shells and eventu- ally good crop of wild grain will re- ward some lazy native who is too idle to provide food for himself. When you see little ant hurrying along with it's tiny burden be careful not to tread upon it, for 1t is such wonderful lit- tie creature that you never can tell in what unexpected ways 1t may be serv- ing you.

A FEAT OF STRENGTH.
How to Break a Stone With a Blow
 of Your Fist.

How to Break Stone With a Blow
 of Your Fist.
 If any one told you it was possible to break stone with a blow of your fist, you would laugh at him. But there is a way by which you can accomplish this feat entirely by your own strength and without injury to your fist.
 First select your stone, or rather, two stones, each of which should be about twelve inches long, but one should be only slab one-half inch thick, while the other is three or four inches thick. Lay the thin stone flat, firmly and immovably on the ground. and on it place one end of the other stone, raising the opposite end to an angle of forty-five degrees. The raised end of the second stone must be over the center of the stone on the ground and must be kept in position by a piece of twig or stick the necessary length.
 You are now ready to demonstrate your tremendous strength. Strike the elevated stone a smart blow at about the center, with the little finger side of the hand. The prop, of course, will give way. and the bottom stone will be broken to pieces as the elevated stone falls upon it from its angular position. Thus you have broken the stone into pieces by one blow of your bare fist, to tue astonishment of any one who may have doubted your ability to do so
