A 'REVIzOR" BOOK
Acting Version of Russian Play
" to be Given by Yale Ora
matte Association.

An acting version Of "RevIzorn has
Just been issued by tho Yale Dramatic
Association copies Of which are now
on sale at the y. ] Judd Co, the Yale
Coop, the University Smoke Shop and
Wilson's pharmacy.
The following appreciation of this
book has been written by Or, W. s,
johnson Of the English department of
the university.
The Yale Dramatic Association has
been characterized from It's inception
by a greater seriousness Of purpose
than Is usual In such organizations. 1t
to encouraging to see that this becomes
increasingly true as the association
grows older The production OF q Yale
play has come TO be looked upon, not
as an exhibition Of immature talent
worthy of appreciation by the friends
OF the college for what 1t attempts
rather than for what II accomplishos,
but as an event OF real intellectual
stimulus to the entire university, the
faculty not least. This impression Is
: deepened and made more permanent by
the annual publication Of the spring
play.
This publication performs three
fold service. II brings sharply to oul
attention a play Of intrinsic merit
which either Is not easily accessible Of
has for some reason failed to receive
the attention which 1t deserves. 1t pre-,
sents this play not In its more aecessi
bic form as q written composition, bu
IN the acting version It furnishes {
permanently valuable souvenir of the
event
"Yales interest in things Russian Il
largely due TO the enthusiasm of Pro
fessor Phelps. To the present edition
he has contributed preface and {
carefully prepared introduction ant
photography. which furnish excellen
apparatus for further study Profcsso
Phelps speaks Of the unique position
which this comedy holrs in the pre-
ivallngly pessimlstic literature of Rus
sa. On the other hand It may be rec
ognized at once as essentially Russian
In feeling, To those VINO took keel
sparkle and sophstication of The I'm
portance of Being Earnest the hume
of Revizor may seem a trifie obvious
The apparent naivete is, however
Joined with certain massiveness anC
reality which nothing Of Wildcs pos
sesses
"As souvenir the book ,is Of espe
clal interest. In general 1t follows tn
lines suggested by last years> edtio
of "The Pretenders.' Eight wood cuts
the cast of characters, list of forme
productions, etc. distinguish 1t as tn
record of a particular performance
Not only have the preface and intro
ductIon been furnished by membe
of the faculty, but the excellent trans
lation of the play itself by Mr.. Mar
dell completes its distinctly Yale char
acter. our thanks are due to the assc
citation for the production of boo
externally attractive and of genuin
value"

GASOLINE STREET
LAMP UNFORTUNATE

The gasoline street lamp which has
been on exhibition in Florence for the
last week, has been most unfortunate
in many ways. Night before last
An inexperienced man undertook to
light it and in some manner barely
missed al ex plosion which. had it
taken place, would have possibly
created q oonflagration. or at least the
breaking of plate. glass windows. or
the serious burning Of those who we're
passing by or course it IL not to
the discredit of the lamp in any man
ner. that the accident happened-the
whole matter being some blunder of
a greenhorn who was trying to light
it-for we all know that gasoline
will ignite and will explode. For.
tunately no serious injury was done :;
Mr.. Gibbs and employees of his estab.
lishment hastened to the rescue and
quickly eliminated all danger.
This forenoon a strong gust of
wind upset the lamp breaking it to
pieces. The large globe was smashed, i,
the mantels destroyed and the refiec-
Tor rendered useless. 1t is to be re.
gretted, AS the company has been to
considerable expense in bringing the
lamp here the second time, and Mr..
Jennings. the representative Of the
company owning the lamp, has also
been to much expense Of time and
money in endeavoring to place its
merits before the city council.

BAD WORK IN THE SOUTH.

The president of the Louisiana Au- dubon Society says that l,Oo0,ooo robins have been killed for food by hunters this writer in Louisiana which is a winter home for the birds. 4 government expert now in that State to investigate the habits of robins says that the government may prove that the eastward movement of the boil weevil has been facilitated by the reckless killing of the robins
 If 100000 robins have been killed in Louisiana this winter the number killed in other southern States where they are hunted and eaten must be large, Perhaps in all five or six mill lions have been killed. It is high time that this kind of thing was stopped in all the States, as it has been in some of them. With the farmers in all parts of the country being plagued by Va rious predatory insects, and with the fact established that birds eat thosC insects, it Is costly folly to be wapton' 1 ly killing the birds Perhaps if there were more birds in Massachusetts, there wouldn't he so many gypss moths and SO many appropriations tC he "exterminated." It is to he hoped that the robins in the South will ge
 better protection than they have had.

The Tinted British Empire.
Crhe Mexican Herald.D

fI ne MeAlcdn Heral0.l
 The British empire is the biggest going concern in the way of power and dominion on earth; 1t is greater than ever was the Roman empire, and ex- tends 10 remoter regions, It is, in pop ulation, helmingly colored, and as time goes cnithe race prejudiaes now beginning to make a rift in the inn perfsl unity will surely become form idable. The integrity of the empire will be threatened.
 It looks as If providence preferred the tinted races. for they exist in far greater numbers than the white race and they are becoming stirred by the thought that their turn Is coming, and that they need not bear with servile ac. quiescence the rule of the white con. queror and administrator. The upper. class and directing groups of Asiatics in China and Japan. and the cleverel natives of British India, have now each in their own country. a native press which they are using to combat the arrogant pretensions of the white nations.
 Modern civilization has spread luxurious table at which are comforta bly, seated the men of our race. The in. telligent Orientals are determined tt take their places there and be helpet to the good things so ahundantly pro vlded IL Is all very natural and yer! human. Were we Asiatics, we shout, all feel the same way.
