One of many facts that disting-
uishes Lyman H Howe's LIfeorama
to be seen at the Grand opera house
Monday. October 10. above ali others
is the artistic mimicry of appropriate
sounds by a stan of clever imitators.
Another equally distinguishing fed-
ture IS the arrangements of the sub
jects so that each compliments the
other by contrast BY way of ulus-
tratin gthis in the new program, the
spectator Is suddenly transferred
from the streets of Naples TO witness
the weird effects of physical phe-
nomena, or the daring horsemanshIp
of Australians. Then he is taken
from the historic ruins of Benares in
Inudia to the grandeur of Niagara IN
winter, or the inenable beauty, of Sa-
voy in France: from the scu1pture.l
art of Rome to the sulphur mines IF
Sicily. or the fearless daring of Eng
lIsh Jockeys in q 10-mile steepIchase.
\ new Reedham orphan drill, the
animals and birds. and many other
features compose a program of end
less variety and startling contrasts.

Mr.. Henry h. harris, having con-
new plays, has. for the last two
months. anxiously scanned the list OF
young leading ladies capable of play
ing parts OF more than usual im-
Do-tance. His inability to find act
resses suitable for his purpose has in
fiuenced HIM in making preparations
to provide a course OF instruction un-
der the direction of the most capa-
BILE teachers and lecturers to be fcuno
whereby young girls of promise and
appearance may secure the advant-
ages of a school of acting under any
other now existing In this country.
Year after year in New York we
see the same faces playing the lead
ing roles. until now 1t has become a
by-word. when an announcement is
made that a play will be produced.
that one of the ten names of pronli-
nent leading women will be cast sor
the principle female role. 1t is only
now and then that a new face Is seen
who, taking advantage of an unusual
opportunity, springs into prominence
and receives the pIaudfts of the press
and public.

MoNTANA's GOVERNOR QUITS.
Gov. Toole Says Il.Health Prevents
Him Finishing Term.

Helena, Mont.-GoyeTnor Joseph
K. Toole, thrice elected Governor OF
Montana, resigned. He gave ILL
health as the reason for his action.
His term expires in January next, 80
Lieutenant Edwin Norris,
who is also a Democrat, will serve
nine months as Montana's Executive.
In his statement to Secretary OF
State Yoder Governor Tocle calls at
tention to a provision in the Constitu-
tion prohibiting elective officials be-
Ing absent from the State for more
than sixty days, and, as his health Is
somewhat impaired, he said he felt
that permanent improvement could
not be effected within so short time,
hence his resignation. .
About three years ago Governor
Toole suffered from an attack or the
grip, and has been unable to eradi-
cate it from his system. With his ad-
vancing years and long public service
he feels entitled to long reprieVe
from al. cares.
Mrs. Toole, who Is a daughter OF
the late General Rosecrans, will not
accompany her husband to California
unless there be decided change for
the worse in his condition.
