KELLAR AND THURSTON /.
PROMISE MANY NEW TRICKS

After an absence of six years, KEEL
lar, the magician, returns to Newark
Monday evening for a weeks engage
ment at the Newark Theatre, accom-
panied by Howard Thurston. To the
lovers of magic either of these names
means a great deal, but when the two
unite under one management, the
choicest magic and illusions are eX-
pected to be Forthcoming. For years
Kellar has been recognized as the dean
of his profession, while the closest APP
proach to him in point of ingenious
creations and ability to properly pre-
sent them to the public has been, we
are told, the clever young conJurer,
Howard |Thurston. Mr.. Thurston has
made for himself a clientele distinctly
apart from that of his companion ma
vician. His magic savors of frivolity
and serves as a relief to the weird eff
fects accomplished by Mr.. Kellar.
MANY new things are promised in the
combined programs of the two magl-
clans. Among them will be The
cnectre Cabinet" acquired by Mr.. KEEL
lar from Maskelyne, the conJurer Oh
st Georges Hall, London; the Levi
tation of Princess Karnac," "The Prs
oner Of Canton" 'The Phantom Bridal
Cbamber" and another known as
"Princess Kiyo." adapted from an old
Hindu legend by Mr.. Thurston. This
will he Kellar's last visit to Newark
as his retirement is announced for the
close of the present season, the purpose
of the present tour being to introduce

SOME DATES AHEAD-C0MING
OF THE RIGHT OF WAY"

The dramatization of Sir Gilbert Par
ker's tale of Northern Canada, "The
, Right of Way" which will be present
ed in his city a week from Monday at
the Newark Theatre, makes essential
changes in the story, but even with
Mr.. Presbrey's necessary alterations
the play is a strillngly interesting one
The story begins after Charley Steele
has been married-on the day that he
goes to the Cote Dorion. is beaten and
is rescued by Joe Portugais, the guilty
criminal, whom, as a lawyer, he saved
from the gallows. Then the story shifts
to Portuguese cabin. showing Steele in
love with the sweet Rosalie and uncon-
scious of his past. Then comes the re-
covery, and in the end the real Mrs.
Steele. Kathleen is found to have been
dead a year, and the curtain, unlike
the ~denouement of the novel, finds the
regenerated Charley Steele and Rosalie
on the way to the altar and happiness.
Mr.. Presbrey has substituted scenes
for acts and named them. What is
life?" "What is death?" and What is
right?'
The cast which Klaw & Granger
have organized for this fine production
is one Of ability. Guy Standing plays
Charley Steele, and h't personation of
the cynical, questioning, brilliant
drunkard, and his metamorphosis to
the reformed Charley in scene three,
is strong acting. Theodore Roberts as
the devoted French Canadian habitant
has a far more satisfactory role thar
his Tabywana in The Squaw Man"
His massive personality is quite eff
fectively hidden in the role of the rug
ged and uncouth riverman. His dia-
lect work is clever, n he succeeds in
making Joe a vigorous, original and
magnetic personality, and fully shares

speed Of English Railroads,

A steady Improvement in the facili-
ties for travel on English railways in
the last ten or a dozen years is re-
vealed in an elaborate review OF this
years service by Engineering. The
advances include an increase in the
number of trains making long runs
without a stop, the general use OF res
taurant cars and operation at higher
speeds than were formerly deemed
safe and practicable. The most nota-
BILE gains in speed are observed in
comparatively short runs. Anything
like fifty-six or fifth-seyen miles an
hour for a greater distance than %
miles was almost unknown in Eng
land in 1895. Now 1t is sustained or
surpassed regularly on four different
lines. One. the CaledOnian, has three
trains daily which travel 35 miles at
a rate ranging from 81 to 61 miles
an hour. The Great Northern oper-
ates the same number OF trains for
80 miles at the rate of Sc miles an
hour, and the London 4 Northwestern
and the Great Western each has IA
regular trains daily which maintain
that speed. the former for 102 miles,
and. the latter for 1875 miles. A good
many American expresses on straight
and level sections OF track, equal or
surpass these performances for con
siderable portions of their regular
service. Indeed, spdrts at the rate OF
C5 or,70 miles an hour are not un-
common in this country. Still, the
difference Is small. and for short dist
ances It must be admitted that the
new records>in England are close to
the best achievements in the United
states.--New York Tribune.

able familiarity with IT, This is not
true with shorthand. Long hours
of hard work are necessary with the
average man before he can write in
its strokes and curves as fast as he
can express himself in the ordinary
long hand which he has known from
his youth up. A still longer study Is
required before he can write as fast
in this way as If trained to the type
writing machine. The person whose
shorthand has advanced to the stage
of equalling in speed either of these
simpler methods. has gone over the
heavier part of the grade; the rest
comes from practice. A little knowl-
edge OF shorthand and little mental
investment in It are. therefore. use
less, because they add nothing to
rapidity of expressing thoughts
Much the same IS true OF keeping il
up. Unless shorthand is very thor
oughly grounded in the mind and
memory of the individual, particu-
larry In youth. it takes considerable
daily use of 1t. to maintain expert
ness. II Is a jealous mistress. Much
of its exaetions, however, depend on
the individual. The person who be-
comes thoroughly grounded in short
hand and experienced in its use be-
fore he is twenty years old, probably
never needs 10 worry about forget
ting it. He may make an exceeding
ly slight and infrequent use of Il
without any more danger Of losing
It than he is in forgetting the order
of the letters Of the alphabet, or the
great truth OF the multiplication

Thousands OF young people in pub
lie and private schools as the acad-
emic year opens are undecided as to
whether they should study short
hand: institutions of various grades
are equally uncertain about includ-
ing it in their curriculum. For the
persons who intend to become stem

in connection with typewriter opera

legislative bodies, the question adj
mits of but one answer. II is not
with this use OF shoEthand that the
general public is primarily concern
ed. The wider interest rather lies
in the value of shorthand to the
average man IN business of pro-
fessional life, and in its general use
fulness as an accomplishment, aside
from its bread and butter making
aspects. The knack, or the art, has
now proceeded sufficiently far, with
