Prohibited Plays.

From the London Evening Standard.
The prohibition of The Mkado" by the
lord chamberlain is far from being the only
piled during the run of a dramatic perform
ance In this country.
AS a general rule. however. the authori-
ties have been content with little altera-
alton Of the dialogue and business" This
was the case where a certain musical COM
edy in which a member of the Turkish en-
bassy traced an unf1attering likeness to
himself was concerned a few years ago.
AS result Of this gentlemans representa-
tons the character was cut out or else
piece resumed its career.
A much more celebrated instance was af-
fOrded by the production of THE Happy
Land at the Court Theater In 1873. After
the piece had been duly licensed it was
pointed out that three prominent members
Of the cabinet were depicted on the stage. in
a somewhat undignified fashion. The lord
chamberlain himself went to see per-
Torrance. and as a result ordered the piece
to be withdrawn. Thereupon the manage
ment agreed to make certain emendations
and the license was restored
In the old days the censorship was often
exercised in ridiculous and tyrannical
fashion. For example. in the time of
Charles II 1.-THE Maids Tragedy" by Beau
mont and Fletcher was prohibited on the
ground that 1.-The murder accomplished by
the heroine. Evadne. might supply a dan
gerous example to the Evadnes then shining
distinction 1t is little surprising that
the authors did not try to get out of the
difficulty by changing the lady's name to
Evangeline.

The Parole System.
From Eyerybodys.

from EVERYBODY 8.
Prisoners in the courts of illinois, as
well as other states. are sentenced for
an indetermnate period, limited only by the
maximum and the minimum terms fixed
by the law for that particular offense, and
the board of pardons is authorized to re-
lease prisoners on parole within that period
The conditions imposed by the parole are
difficult to meet. providing among other
things that the paroled prisoner shall not
except by order of or upon permission from
the warden first obtained in writing: that
he shall make a monthly report to the war
den. sta ting how much he has earned. how
much expended, and for what. If he has
been idle. he must state the reason In
case of sickness or the loss of his position
through any misfortune whatever. he must
report at to the warden. Our convict
knew that these conditions had resulted
very often in making hypocrites out of the
convicts, who found themselves forced to de-
ceive when they submitted their required
monthly reports to the prison authorities.
He knew that since the indeterminate SEN
tence and the parole law had been estab-
lished, it had been claimed that 40 per cent
of those released had reformed but, be-
ing man of more Intelligence than the
average, he perceived that such statistics
were largely the result of guesswork based
the discovery that few of the paroled
men came back to the institution from
which they had been released. He saw
that the true explanation of the matter
to live up to the agreement of their parole,
released convicts generally left the state
in which they had served sentence and
sumed a life of crime beyond it's borders,

A BabY's Stage Debut.

Coos goo, Mamma-ma- ma. Dah-dah.
de- yum -m-m,''
1t was the first stage talk of baby debu-
tante at the New National last Monday
night. The baby was little Lizbeth Meakins,
and the infant prattle was the unwritten
lines In Baife's romantic opera, 1.-The Be-
hemian Girl"
She has made hit" was the unanimous
cry back of the stage. and re-echoed out in
the audience among the hundreds of spec
tators to babys first stage experience.
1t all happened this way. Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Meakins edith Bradford) have for
some time been ambitious toward getting
Baby Meakins before the footlights. and,
portunity that came along. which happened
to be the role OF little Airline, the three
year-old daughter of Count Arnheim Of
Presburg, in 1.-The Bohemian Girl"
Little Miss Meakins, or Baby Bradford"
she is better known to the members of
the Aborn company. is just four years old,
and prior to her stage debut last week has
never appeared behind the footlights except
to watch the work of her talented mother
from the nurses arms in the wings. That
the tiny aSpirant made hit so marked
that she compelled to cry outright,
greatly to the amusement of the big audi
ence. 1t so happened however, that crying
was quite in order and the mistake made
by baby was entirely in the atmosphere of
Baifes immortal composition. 1t is not
often that stage debutante, however, gets
a good spanking for stage fright but this
was the reward of Baby Bradford last Mon
day night. and explains to the full satisfac-
ton Of all concerned just how it came about
that her mother made her "enterance" for
the second act so completely out of breath
and in such an admirable distemper for her
angry work the Gypsy Queen.
Bravo, baby! You are coming opera

beggar student named Symon. who has
been imprisoned for debt. and offers to
liberate him If. he will agree to carrying
out the scheme. The student reluctantly
consents and all arrangements are pei
feCted for the marriage. which IS success

monv Ollendorf. in the presence of the
nobility. informs Laura that her husband
is nothing but common and degraded ex-
convict. However, through the activity of
Janitzky. Polish noble Gen. Ollendorf
and his faction are overthrown and under
the new regime Symon, the jaib!rd, Is
raised to high honor, placing him on an
equality with his embarrassed bride, who.
despite his evil record loves him passion
ately. Here the opera comes to a happy
termination.
The Beggar Student has been sung and
enacted by nearly every comic opera ex-
Ponent of note in America. 1t is not gen.
orally known that it in this opera that
DE Wolf Hopper scored hts emphatic sue
cess as the ludiCrous count. During the
long run at the Bijou Theater, Boston,
many years ago, Frank Daniels made his
first great hit of his notable career, ap-
pearing the absurd jailer.
Miss Beatrice Goldie, who was especially
engaged by Milton and Sargent Aborn for
the role of Laura in THE Beggar Student,
is one of the most noted sopranos singing
in summer opera. Miss Goldie last week
closed a most successful week in Albany
under the Aborn management.

No Witches Burned in Salem.

From the Boston Herald.
There were never any witches burned in
Salem, and Salem people are getting tired
of hearing this historical inaccuracy told
and retold.
OF course. no one denies that witches
were hanged there, but hanging is not
burning. 1t is less barbaroLs. for one thing
Then again, this whole matter of desig
mating Salem as the CITY of Witches" is
getting played out, too. the city's leading
citizens say.
The board Of trade is thinking of advertis-
Ing the place as THE City Of Peace as
REPUTATION of the libel constantly uttered
against history.
Accuracy Of tradition Is venerated in
Salem above al things. In a city whose
old families regard the portraits of their
ancestors as the Incas did the RAYS of the
sun, frenzy of Indignation has been
aroused over what they declare to be IAN
impious calumny" cast upon the memory
of the early settlers.
Senator Albert ]. Beveridge of Indiana
has dared to proclaim that the Puritan fore
fathers wantonly burned the victims of
witchcraft. and that it is written in the
shadoWy history of the colonies
Indignant historical societies and learned
historians who have spent years in gather
Ing facts relating to the details OF the
wttchcraft obsession declare that Senator
Beverages misstatement is the last straw:
that the fair name of Salem has been SIAN
dered long enough. and that movement
will now be organized to give natlo::di pub
lefty to the truth about that lamentable
chapter of witchcraft.

Big Game in East.

from the New York tribune.
A fresh appeal has recently been made
for the preservation of the big game Of
East Africa. Rapidly, as compared with
the ages which have been consumed In
evolving them, the great animals of the
earth are disappearing everywhere. The
whale is becoming Scarcer year by year.
The plains no longer tremble beneath the
hoofs of the herds of the American bison
To ind white rhinoceros is considered
worth months of wandering over the parch-
ed veldts of equatorial Africa. Before the
railroad and the gun the great game is re-
treating to the Businesses. and there are
left few spots on the globe when the sports
man may find the giant descendants of the
fauna of other eras.
Almost the only place where one may go
to find big game in abundance is the equa-
toral region of Africa There one may still
find the big African elephant the rhinoce-
ros, the hippopotamus and the crocodile
which have almost disappeared from their
historic home. the Nile: the giraffe. the ST.
lent-fOoted lion, the leopard, the SloW-mov-
ing Gland. the zebra and various members
of the antelope family. 1t is evident how
ever, that unless measures taken to
protect them they will disappear as their
Fifty years ago that part of Africa teemed
with the same kind of animals
Unfortunately for the giraffe his skin
was especially suitable for long whip lashes
oxen over the veldt. The African elephant
has fine tusks. They are much larger and
more desirable than those found on the
Indian elephant. The elephant can keep
pace with the arrows of the blacks even
though they be poisoned but with the

reckless sportsman. and of recent years
also in those Of the irresponsible ebon ma
tive. the elephant falls behind in the strug-
gle for existence. The tiny bullet in its
effectiveness may be a triumph of the inge-
nuity Of man when it can bring to his
knees the giant among animals, but some
times one regrets its capacity when one
realizes that the life Of an animal which
has required twenty-five years to mature
has been cut off in the twinkling of an eye.

To Feed 10000 at a Clam Bake.

Manager William J. Thompson of Wash

Il have talked with an army quartermas-
