THE FORREST


To witness the greatest and most thrill
ing dramatic production of the age and to
become possessed of the novel taken from
the play of ''The Round Up" is the invit-
ing prospect for all visitors to the Forrest
Theatre, tomorrow evening, April 10
The 10th performance in Philadelphia of
''The Round Up" occurs on that night
and Messrs. Klaw & Erlanger and Messrs.
Nixon & Zimmerman have decided to
celebrate that number as a big souvenir
night, as the Declaration of Independence
was signed in 1776 and the average perfor-
mances of "The Round Up" has been 1776
persons. There are many plays that have
been dramatized from books, but revers-
ing the usual order of things the book of
''The Round Up has been written from
the play, and no more absorbingly inter
esting and exciting novel has been print
ed in many years. The selling price of
this novel in handsome cloth binding is
81 so and when it is stated that every
purchaser of a seat on the lower floor and
Grand Circle will be presented with one
of these superbly covered books and that
a volume of this story will also be given
to each person in the second gallery it can
be readily understood that the value of
the souvenir and the liberality of it's dis
tribution consummate the most extraord-
! mary souvenir occasion ever arranged for
at any theatre in America. To further
mark the gala significance of this celebra-
tion the Forrest Theatre will be beauti
| fully decorated with ferns, evergreens
and an abundance of spring flowers.
THE Round Up," with its thrilling story
of far western life and it's tremendously
real battle scene has already had the
longest run known in the history of thea
tricals in Philadelphia, 1t could I'M
dOubtedly run on indefinitely to the same
record breaking crowds but imperative
contracts for its production in other big
citit s have to be fulfilled and so the end
of this great play in Philadelphia is
actually in sight. Beginning last evening
will be the last three weeks of 1.-THE
Round Up" at the Forrest Theatre. They
promise to be the three biggest weeks in
| the career of this play in Philadelphia.
Those who have not yet seen this marvel
Gus production will not miss the remain
| ing opportunities and those who have
seen 1t even many times will want to see
it again before the big company and all
! the cowboys Indians and bronchos leave
| for other fields to conquer. Seats are now
selling for the big souvenir night and
orders for seats sent with remittance and
stamped addressed envelope will receive
| instant attention. MatiRees are on We'd
nesday and Saturday, one dollar being the
highest price for seats at the Wednesday
matinee. Seats may be secured at Aliens
Pharmacy, Mount Holly.

Horse Notes.

1t is said that the real estate agents who
have been inspecting land at Ewanyille
want to secure a tract to be used as {
stock and training farm for horses.
The colts by Hal r. billiard, which M
E. Std, of Mount Holly, purchased in
New York last winter, have begun to
show. They are fine, large rangy colts.
The stopping of pool selling in some
states will cause many well known horses
to return home, which will enable some
prominent entries to be made in future
racing of amore local character.
President Wills has made satisfactory
arrangements with Edward B. Allen, of
Pennington, to act as starting judge
at the next Mount Holly Fair. He is pro-
prietor of Stoney Brook farm at Penning-
ton.
Contrary to his first intention James
Morris, of Philadelphia, will train at
Point Breeze this season, instead of com
ing to Mount Holly He will handle Ma
jor Ryan, owned by NJ E. Std, and will
race this well known black gelding in the
national circuit.
AT the racing matinee to be held at the
Mount Holly Fair grounds on Memorial
day, there will be free-for all race and
mixed races for the 3d. 2 40 and min
ute classes. Some fine sport is promised
on that occasion between Burlington coun--
ty trotters and PAGERS that will contest for
prizes.
Prospects are bright for fine list of
entries in the speed department for the
next Mount Holly Fair. Encouraging
letters have been received by President
Wills, in which assurance is given that
the Allentown Fair, which will be beld on
the same dates as the Mount Holly Fair,
will not interfere with the Burlington
county exhibition, so far as good string
of fast horses is concerned.

Approved Many Bills.


Governor Fort had busy day yester
day. He approved about so bills.
Among those signed was one to keeE
small children out of theatres and Other
amusement places unless accompanied by
parents or guardian. The Governor also
signed the resolution providing for an
Investigation of the growing disuse of the
Delaware and Raritan Canal, now leased
by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company.

ton providing for an investigation of the

ton; House bill providing for the examin-
alton and registration of chiropodists; the

to mark any article containing gold in
way to indicate greater degree of fine
ness than it really contains; exempts
municipalities of less than $4,000 inhabi-
tants from franchise limit act.
There has been considerable confusion
in banking circles over Governor Forts
veto of the bill making GOOD Friday"
bank holiday" instead of leaving it a
''public holiday" as provided by the bill
signed last year by Governor Stokes The
Department of Justice has ascertained
that under law passed in 1902. negotiable
paper falling due on any holiday goes
over until the day following. In view of
this Good Friday becomes a ''bank holt
day" without more legislation.
Governor Fort signed these bills last
night:
Creating Office of commissioner of re-
ports, at salary of $4,000 year; relieving
banks from responsibility for payment of
forged checks, unless claim is made within

WALNUT STREET.

For pure. Wholesome fun, for laughter
that. will not be followed by the blush of
shamefacedness, or the slightest tinge of
regret for having brought wife, mother,
sister or daughter to see it, you must go
to ''The Time, The Place and the Girl, at
the Walnut street theatre, Philadelphia.
This is music play which has created the
greatest furore Philadelphia has ever has
had, and It's engagement in consequence
has had to be extended twice already, and
still the demand for it seems to be insatia-
BILE. Its sparkling comedy, its overflow
ing mirth, its wonderful comedian, Arthur
DEACON, and its all star cast of players,
which include Georgia Drew Mendum,
Harriet Burt, Violet McMillen, Robert H.
Wilson, George Elmer, and dozen others,
have combined to make it the most talked
about play of the year, and the slang
phrases which Arthur DEACON, in his role
of Happy Johnny Hicks. gives expression
TO, are already being quoted all over
town. The marvellous little "Broilers, Z"
as the ten little girls who do the wonder
full dances, which bring the audience to
its feet with their swiftness and dash, still
work with the animation and enthusiasm
which have made these "Elgin Butter
Girls" revelation to Philadelphia theatre
goers, heretofore accustomed only to the
usual blase, bored looking Broadway
chorus girls. Arthur DEACON has intro
duced several verses based on local topics,
and prominent Philadelphians in his big
gest song hit, Thursday is my Jonah
Day" and they receive encore after en-
core until DEACON is utterly exhausted. /
Other songs which are nightly encored
until the players cannot respond through
fatigue are Miss Burt's Dixie, / Low
You," Uncle Sans Best Girl" ''The |
Waning Honeymoon" the duet between |
Miss McMillen and Mr. DEACON, Don't |
You Tell" and Mr.. Wilson's BLOW the
smoke Away" There is regular matt
nee Saturday and special bargain SOC
matinee on Wednesdays.

New Auto Law

| The law governing automobiles has
several new provisions. The changes
made provide for an increase from seven
to ten paid inspectors. and 20 unpaid in
spectors have been added. According to
State Commissioner Smith, this will pro-
vide sufficient number of inspectors to
instruct the local authorities and to in
vestigate complaints of violations. He
said:
'The fees for registration have been
increased from So for vehicles of less than
so horsepower, and So for vehicles of 80
horsepower and above, to So for vehicles
of less than 10 horsepower, So for vehicles
of from 10 to 80 horsepower, inclusive,
and $40 for vehicles of 80 horsepower and
above. The drivers license fees have
been increased from 81 AMI So to 50 and
81, the dividing line being with vehicles
of 30 horsepower. This will make a net
increase of nearly 100000 to therevenues
of the State"
The auto fees are to be used for road
Improvements. In addition to the other
provisions of the law, it is made a misde-
meanor to throw glass or other sharp
edged substances on roads.

At the annual meeting of the stock
holders of the New Jersey Cranberry
Sales Company, at Trenton, Tuesday

ing one. The reports of the first years

ion. the prices for cranberries were
generally above the average of most other
years and the growers were relieved of
much work and anxiety in marketing
their fruit, both in the way of prices and
the assurance of being paid for their
berries.

HOW THE PYRAMIDS WERE BUILT
Theory That Explains Expenditure Of
Time and Labor.

No one has been able to decide how
the enormous stones in the pyramids
were handled; for, even allowing for
the vast army of men, some sort OF
mechanical contrivance must have
been used.
One theory is that as each course
of stone was laid sand embankment
was built around it with long, easy
slopes so that the stones for the next
course could be pushed on rollers
and slid into place, without any actual
lifting, and so on, the pyramid being
in fact buried as fast as it was built,
until the top was reached, when the
stupendous job Of removing the sand
embankment was commenced.
This might account for the vast
army of laborers used; for instance,
it is said that in building the great
pyramid of Cheops 100000 men were
employed for 30 years, although the
quarry from which the stone was OBJ
tanned was nearly 5000 feet from the
nyramid. Engineering Magazine.

The Effect Of Nltroqen.

The results Of nitrogen are seen at
once In the greener and more abund-

more of nitrogen than of PHOSPHORUS
and potash because he may have to
wait until harvest and actually weigh
the product to see their results.
Nitrogen increases the vegetative
parts OF the plant and an excess Of
1t tends to make the plant go on
growing. Excessive nitrogen has
doubled the amount of wheat straw
but reduced the percent OF wheat

WHY COLDS ARE DANGEROUS.

Because you have contracted ordi-
nary colds and recovered from them
without treatment Of any kind, do not
for moment imagine that colds are
not dangerous, Everyon~ Knows th.t
pneumonia and chronic catarrh have
their origin in common cold. Con-
sumption is nol caused by cold but
the cold prepares the system for he
reception and development of the germs
that wouldn't otherwise have found
Iodgment. 1t is the same with all in
fectious diseas. Diphtheria, scarlet
fever, measles and whooping cough are
much more likely to be contracted when
the child hes cold. You will see
from this that more real danger turks
in cold than in any other OF the COM
mon ailments. The easiest and quick
est way to cure cod is to take
Chamberlain Cough Remedy. The
many remarkable cures effected by
this preparation have made it a staple
article Of trade over large pert Of he

Getting the Doctors Attention.

Any one who has had to wait any
considerable length of time in a doc

medicine was ready to receive him
will appreciate an experience of Con-
gresham Francis w. Cushman of
Washington state. 1t is said the con-
gressman some time ago had occasion
to visit one of the noted physicians at
the national capital and was compelled
for many weary minutes to cool his
heels in an anteroom. Finally, his
patience becoming exhausted, he sum-
moned an attendant, to whom he said:
Present my compliments to the doc
tor, and tell him if am not admitted
in five minutes shall get well again. I"
The physician found it convenient
to admit Mr.. Gushing at oacc.
