Madame Nazimova, the Russian star,
about whom the magazines and New York
correspondents have written and published
so much that she is almost as we'll known in
this city as Berhardt and Duse, will play a
special engagement of four performances
in this city beginning on Thursday, Decem-
Der 10, at the Boyd theater. There has
been widespread interest in the coming of
Nazimova. We have heard so much of
her wonderful talent and remarkable
beauty. her youth and magnetism, that
her appearance will be one of the seasons
most important dramatic events. First she
appeared in New York as the member of
a band of players exiled from Russia and
offering plays in obscure theaters in Rus
sian. Margaret Anglin and Henry Miller
persuaded her to study English and remain.
She did this and appeared for a trial
within six months. Her first performance
was an ovation and the Bijou theater was
secured for here. She has not left New
York since until the present. Her per-
formances here. win be all in English and
she will be presented by the Shuberts, sur
rounded by her New York company and
productions. Her repertoire OF Ibsen plays,
from which selection will be made, includes
A Dolls House, 'Hedda Gabler' and

At the Boyd this evening the charming
comedy by Clyde Fitch. Girls will be
presented again, and it ought to be seen
by a houseful of people. The piece itself
is frankly a farce, but It contains many
most delicious hits, and II is done SO charm
ingly by the girls who are the leaders i'm
the fun that ii is enjoyable to all. The
realism OF the scene in the studio, where
the three man haters" get ready to retire
for the night, is about the limit Of such
proceedings. and yet il is done with a deli
cacy that makes 1t delightful. This is
characteristic OF the play from first to
last. Altogether It is worth the while of

fare for the determination of the
sharks which abound in the waters of
the South Atlantic will shortly be in
augurated by the government fish
cries bureau, with the cooperation of
the big fishing companies of this sec
tion. 1t is alleged that the sharks
are responsible for the scarcity of
edible fish. For some time there has
been complaint among fishermen of
constantly decreasing catches, and
unless steps are taken to eliminate
the sharks, a fish famine is immi-
nent.
AS one of the measures for exter-
minating the sharks and, dogfish
which devour the smaller fishes, it is
proposed to establish fisheries for the
preparations of sharks for food. 1t
is declared that the tigers of the
sea" are really tasty and nutritious
and that in time shark as a diet will
become popular.
1t is said that sharks are doing
millions Of dollars worth of damage
annually to commercial fisheries on
the coast by devouring other valuable
food fishes and incidentally by de-
troying the nets of fishermen. The
large fish shipping industry makes
the matter of peculiar interest here
and experiments to protect the indus
| try will be given attention. Steps
Will be taken by the government and
ii is needless to say that the co-opera-
tion of the fish dealers along the
coast will be heartily given to any
measures which may be adopted.
To determine the availability of
the dogfish or small shark, as food
the bureau of fisheries is now con
| ducting a series of Investigations.
Members of the staff of the bureau
have tried them fried, and cooked in
various other ways. and have found
them excellent The fish has no bones,
/ is more nutritious than beefsteak,
pound for pound. and it ought to
prove the cheaper of all foods, mas
much as dogfish. by reason of their
vast abundance, can be sold profitab-
ly and cheaply by the fishermen. The
statement is made by those connected
with the fisheries bureau that in the
creation of market for dogfish and
their by-products, lies the solution
of the edible fish problem.
Already, on the Nova Scotia coast.
these fish are put up in cans, and the
industry is said to be quite profit
