FORTUNES IN SABLE SKINS.
With Skins at $45o Each, Prices Soar
 Into Thousands.

The two most expensive Sable coats in the world are worn by the empress of Russia and Queen Maud of Norway.
 The empress coat Is made from pure sables, the best which could be obtained in Europe, and is valued by an expert in furs at something be tween s250,000 and s400,000, while that which Queen Maud wears would be worth nearly half as much.
 The manager of a London firm said that within the last two years the price of sable had increased by 75 per cent, and was still going up.
 "The price is practically prohibi. tive" he said, land we have to find a substitute in top Russian sable, smart sets of which cost as much as $1,000. If the same were made in real sable the price would be about s7,500 or more.
 There is as much gambling in sa- bles as there is on the stock ex- change. The furriers have all sold out, and the demand is still great People are now beginning to pass sables down as heirlooms-and val. uable they are, too, at S450 skin

Laurant, the magician, comes to Music
Hall, Friday evening, March 10. This is
the closing entertainment in the Y. M.
c. A. course and the first appearance
here of Laurant, who is ranked among
the three best magicians of the present
time.
Mr.. Laurant relies less than any other
wizard upon complicated mechanical
contrivances, presenting program in
which dexterity is the feature that
particularly appeals to his audience. His
Straightforward" experiments are pre-
sented with an elegant ease that is
absolutely deceptive and effective, and it
is wonderful how much can be done
without resorting to cumbersome
mechanical appliances. The apparatus
and paraphernalia that Mr.. Laurant
possesses today, and carries with him to
present this gorgeous performance, are
beyond doubt the finest collection in the
world. In addition to all these elegant
settings he carries all of his own curtains,
draperies and hangings, which being of a
beautiful red color, give the stage the
appearance of a perfect magician's
palace.
Realizing how greatly this class Of
entertainment appeals to children the
committee have made reduced rates for
children, so that they may all be able to
see this marvellous performance.
