JUST A SPARE MOMENT. Every Lover of Ireland Should Go tp Polls Theater Thursday Night.

There is not man, woman or enid in the north end of the city who wishes well to the St Thomas parish who should not be in Polls theater on Thursday evening and assist In the benefit for that parish. The young ladies and gentlemen who have been giving up their days and weeks or practice for the benefit of that church expect to reap no reward themselves, unless it will be the applause for their work on the stage. The play, Daniel OConnell," to be presented, was given in city hall on St Patrlck's afternoon and evening, under the aus pices of the Ladies auxiliary and It was pronounced one of tie prettiest of all the Irish dramas.
 The prices charged are not excess sive. One can secure a reserved seat for fifty cents, or a good seat fer thirty-five cents, or a. genera, admis- sion for twenty-fice cents. The play will be handsomely costumed, with new scenery, splendid orchestra and every accessory to make it an enjoy able one. Family parties can hire the boxes if so desired.

THE THREE OF US"

"The Three of Us," the drama by Rachel Crowthers. produced at the Jacques this week, is easily the best effort that the Poli Stock company has made this season. The play is mighty interesting. is finely acted and should be we'll patron ized as 1t is deserving of large at- tendances. Although the members of a stock company are usually un- familiar with their lines on the first couple of days, not so with the play CTS in the cast of "The Three of Us" The players had their parts so we'll in hand last evening that 1t was not even necessary for Stage Director Harry Stubbs to stay behind the scenes. By the way this man Stubbs seems to be a right smart sage manager and the production this week is far and ahead of the aver age stock play-and much of the credit is due the director. There are many bright lines in the play and the dialogue Is such that the audience is interested from beginning to end. There Is plenty of action and much chance for an audience to enthuse. The play was first produced in this city by Car lo.ta Nillson and company al Poli's where it made a distinct hit. IL is in three acts with the third undoubted- iy the best. although the fourth Is much stronger han the last act of the majority of plays of this kind.

REcoRD- BRrAKrNe LUMBER cur

RECORD BREAKING LUMBER CUT
All of the governments efforts to
preserve the forests of the nation and
encourage the Limitation of the lum-
Der cut appear to have been futile, &C
cording to the census bureau statistics
Of the lumber cut for 1907. These
returns show that the total cut of 1907
was about 40, 900, 600, 900 feet of lum-
Der, as compared with $1,000, 100000
in 1905, until then the banner year.
For the year 1907 reports we're re-
ceived from ASSOC mills, the depart
ment concluding hat these reports
cover at least s5 per cent of the total
lumber production for the year.
While the general business depres-
sion had some effect on the lumber in
dustry, the returns show an increase
in the output of every lumber-pro-
ducing section of the country. The
south increased its production of yellow
pine lumber by S3 per cent over 1906.
while the increase in Oregon and Wash
ington was considerable. The lake
states showed a reduced production,
due only to the fact that the timber
regions of that section have been prac-
tically denuded.
1t is a striking fact that, although
lumber prices have steadily advanced
during the last half century, the per
capita consumption of lumber has also
increased, illustrating what has been
found true the world over that with in
dustrial progress the demand for wood
becomes greater.
The record of 1907 serves to further
illustrate the wisdom of the forestry
policy of the republican party. 1t is
estimated that the lumber supply of
the nation will be exhausted within
twenty-five years and, under such con-
dltions, no laws looking to the preserva-
ton of the forests can be made too
strict or be too rigidly enforced.

DEMAND FOR EXPERT PROBERS.
An astonishing condition exists at
Washington, where the Civil Service
commission that it can not
find men to fill government jobs paying
from $500 to $4,000 per year. An
examination was to have been held in
early September for applicants for
these positions, but so few applied that
the commission has postponed the date
for the examination to October z and
8 and has issued this bulletin:
Owing to the commissions inability to
secure a sufficient number of competent
applicants. qualified persons are urged
to apply for this examination.
1t is the old story ver again. With
thousands of men and women already
on the eligible list of the Civil Service
commission for appointments to posi-
lions In the various departments, there
are no applicants in line when really
trained experts are in demand. The
men wanted are to be appointed TO
probe into the accounts of railways and
other common carriers to see if they
are complying with the bookkeeping
system prescribed by the Interstate
Commerce commission more than a
year ago. under the provisions of the
amended interstate commerce act. Con-
gress has appropriated 100000 to
have the law carried into effect. Men
to be appointed under this examination
must have an expert knowledge of gen
eral auditing, disbursements, freight,
passenger and claims accounts in con-
~nection with steam roads and account
ing in connection with electric rail
ways, express service, steamship serv.
