construction of the famous novel,
''The New Magdalen," by Will1ie Col

play is the interest that revolvtes
about a case of false impersonation
Older playgoers will remember the
powerful acting of Ada Cavendish
and Clara Morris in plays founded
on the same story.
In this new version, "Zira," the
character of the fraudulent heroine.
will be assumed by Miss Roberts, an
actress who already has furnished
ample proof of her abilities in the
way of emotional Interpretation. She
is supposed to be the victim of a
mock marriage, and to have been
subjected to the disgraceful humilia-
tion of divorce court proceedings by
vengeful woman. AS a Red Cross
nurse in South Africa, during the
Boer war, she encounters a young
Englishwoman who is returning
home to England to join relatives
she has never seen. 1t is revealed
that this young woman is the bosom
friend of the woman who has caused
Hester to be disgraced, and she
threatens still further exposure. A
shell explodes and the young wo-
man, Ruth Wilding, by name. is
wounded by it and apparently killed.
Hester quickly changes clothes with
her. and appropriates her papers,
money and identity.
For a time the deception is sue
cessful. and Hester tastes the pleas
ure of wealth and position in Lon
don, but of course the woman she is
impersonating is not dead, although
she has been deprived of her mem
ory. The two women, however, meet
face to face. and the shock of the
meeting restores the woman's mental
faculties. She accuses her imper
senator, and is met with supplica-
tion and pleading and then with de-
fiance. In the end. Hester, after
fierce internal struggle, makes what
reparation she can by confession
and restoration. and is regarded by
a love which compensated her for all
her suffering.

THE MACHINISTS
ANSWER COMPANY
Warm Reply to the Statement Made by the Rio Grande
that it has all the Men it Needs--l6O Dead Engines
on the System--Will Road Ever Get Better
Work, More Work and Cheaper Work?

A most interesting statement was
issued yesterday by the striking ma
chinists of the Denver & Rio Grande
in answer to the assertions of the
railroad company that it had all the
men it needed. According to this
statement, the company has ex-
tremely little reason to be gratiffed
over the situation.
The statement is as follows:
THE striking machinists of the
Denver & Rio Grande railway are
of the opinion that they have the
sympathy. friendship and good will
of all impartial men in all the cit
les and towns through which this
line operates. and we hope to retain
1t. At any rate. we intend to de-
serve it.
Therefore. we wish to reply
through the columns of an unpur-
chased press to articles pertaining
to the strike in certain newspapers.
Some of these articles have the ear
marks of coming from the pen of
an inspired writer We have no
quarrel with them; we only wish to
state clearly the facts in the con-
troversy.

ferent shops along the system. This
statement we willingly admit to be
fact; but we are more than per-
suaded that the Denver & Rio
Grande is in sore need of some me-
chanics. We base our opinion on
the fact that all trains are running
behind schedule time, and new re-
cruits are being added to the dead
track daily, which is already over
crowded with 100 locomotives.

The BEST PLAN TO
IRRICArE POTATOES
Prof. Paddock of the State College
Gives Some Timely Advice to
the Spud Growers of the
State.

The details of irrigation. manner
OF laying out the rows, ETC., do not
need to be described. But there are
simple points which are essential to
success. First, do not irrigate DO
tatOes up If it can possibly be avoid
ed. Wetting the land at the time is
very likely to bring on attacks of
stand and serious injury to the
plants throughout the growing sea-
son.
Ordinarily the first irrigation
should not be given until the tubers
are set. If the tubers have a chance
to form in a comparatively dry soil.
the majority of them will be formed
at one time; then when water is ap-
piled all will have an equal chance
to develop; the result should be a
crop of even sized potatoes.
Tie water should always run shall
low in the burrows. never deep
enough TO stand around the tubers,
bur a sufficient amount applied that
the growing tubers may be kept
damp but not soggy. This is the
tbs moisture may seep up into the
ridges In this way the soil about

but unfavorable for the growth of
potato diseases.
An effort should be made to keep
the soil moisture uniform by fire.
quent light rr;gations. If the ground
is allowed to become dry, the growth
of the tubers is checked then when
water is again applied, second
growth starts in. which results in
nobs and irregular growlths. The
tubers of some varieties crack badly
under this treatment.
1t is essential that the potatoes
should mature in comparatively dry
soil. If the soil is kept wet until
harvest time, the tubers contain an
excess of moisture and this neces-
sarily results in poor quality. Then,
too, potatoes dug when the soil is
wet present a poor appearance on
the market, because of the quantity
of soil which bound to stick to them.
In order to have the soil In proper
condition at digging time, and the
potatoes of the best quality, it is
necessary to stop irrigation three or
four weeks before the usual time for
frost.

I their posts?
The officials admit that no en-
| gines lately repaired have left the
| shop since the strike was declared
three weeks ago. but they hope to
start turning out normal amount
soon
I'VE are quite willing for them
to demonstrate to us this claim
with the present force of strike
breakers. We are well in touch
with the situation, as our head
quarters are located a short dis
tance from the scene of activity
and without field glasses we can
see squarely into the shops and we
know what is doing and is being
accomplished.
Mr.. Schlacks makes the declara-
tion that he wants more work, bet
ter work and cheaper work; and We
realize that he is doomed to bitter
disappointment with the present un-
skilled men who form his present
shop force.
Mr.. Ridgway also makes the
statement that it is not the inten-
ton of the officials to lower the wage
scale. Whatever may be said of the
officials. no one can fairly call them
fools to wage such a relentless war
on their old employees, some of whom
have been in the service of the road
for 25 or 80 years and who have
helped to make the Rio Grande the
great railway it is today-from
mere cowtrail to one of the great
railroads of the west.
Eyes, it means more than senti-
ment. The contest is entered into
with the hope and expectation of in
creasing the dividends of the stock
holders and lowering the wage of
the mechanic. Mr.. Schlacks and Mr..
Ridgway know this: we know it, and
the public should know it.

mortal Lincoln who said: You can
fool all the people some of the time

PEAR CROP, TOO,
WILL BE LARGE
Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER, May 1S-The Delaware pear
crop is fooling the farmer. More and
more apparent is It becoming, as the
fruit on the Keiffer pear trees advances
in size. that the yield will be much
larger than was predicted
The size Of the apple crop is still un-
certain, although last week fully de-
veloDed that fact that the older orch
ards. particularly the well kept ones,
are full to overfiowing. Apples from
this State can now be kept almost IN
definitely in cold storage if the market
is not quite right when they are
plucked.
The twig blight, which is materially
like the pear blight, has started in on
some Of these trees. IT appeared frs;
in the blossoms, destroyed some OF
them. then blackened the leaves on the
tips Of the branches, giving some trees
a sickly appearance.
Even the most dubious fruit growers
are now admitting that the peach crop
will be heavy. insofar as any human
expert can foresee. The Eastern Shore
fruit crop is now being put down on
paper as the largest in a quarter of a
century.

Of Mr.. and Mrs. Lyman.
FIFTY YEARS OF HAPPINESS.
Harli The rattling OF wheels hear
A carriage approaches.
A bridal party filled with fear
Dismount from their coaches.
Thus fifty years ago to-day
In Asbury parsonage.
BY DR.. Dram, Grandma and Grandpa
Were joined in marriage.
A wedding supper then given
BY Aunt Joanna Finn,
Was, by the bridal party eaten
In the midst Of great din.
They thought not Of a wedding tour,
But, by the old fireplace
They closely sat in days Of ysre.
Held in loving embrace.
They rented Cousin Evin's lot
On which they lived two years,
And then, they purchased Lamploo's plo
Where they made their careers
Thus forty years ago or more,
They sat by candle light
Watching their darlings round the floor,
Playing in great delight.
They spared the rod and spoiled the child
Because they often say;
To our children, whippings were mild
For whippings never pay.
And as the years 90 swiftly by
The children one by one.
United by happy nuptial tie,
Leave their paternal home.
Thus, there stands a chain tonight
OF their complete union,
Not one link broken by Gods might,
But all meet in reunion.
Now we greet you all here tonight,
old and young. large and small,
But the bride and groom with great do
light,
We greet most Of all.
