Such has been the demand for
seats for the performance of "The
O'Gradys," play dealing with modern
Irish life, to be presented by the st.
Johns confraternity dramatic club.
that it has been decided to play the
popular drama two nights instead of
one. 1t will be produced at the Lyceum
theater, Twenty-ninth and Mission
streets, April 81 and %, and the indi-
cations are that on both nights the
house will be crowded.
The play takes up the national ques-
tions of Ireland under the system of
landlordism and in it is shown the
governmental oppression of the ten-
antry. The receipts of the play will
go toward the construction of new
schoolhouse and hall for st. Johns
parish Father Brady, pastor of the
Church of st. John the Evangelist, and
his parishioners have long worked TO
secure these additions. recognizing that
the efficiency of the church was great
ly hampered without them.
The st. Johns confraternity dramatic
club has by its former productions won
a popular name for itself, and, as the
members have made a special study
of Irish plays. the expectations are that
The O'Gradys' will rank among their
biggest successes. The following is

brought up without contracting the dis.

feeding them on pasteurized milk. This

"I dined at Cartridges one night last month," said New York mag. azine editor, "with Cecelia Loftus and her new American husband, Dr. Waterman.
 Dr. Waterman said with a laugh that his wife would keep her own name on the stage-that his name wasn't very ornamental Miss Lof- tus smiled and admitted that it wasn't. She said that there were undoubtedly higher-sounding names than Mrs. Waterman.
 "Then, apropos of high-sounding names, she told us a story of the duke of Hamilton-the famous duke, the sporting duke, you know, sent large order for red and white wines to Bordeaux firm, signing the order, after his somewhat os- tentatious habit, with his three great titles-those of the dukedoms of Chatelherault in France, Brandon in England and Hamilton in Scotland.
 "Thus the Bordeaux wine firm re- ceived a tremendous order signed ::
 "'Faithfully yours, Hamilton, Brandon & Chatelherault.'
 "The Bordeaux firm wrote back:
 "Messrs. Rouge & Blanc are ex- ceedingly obliged to Messrs. Hamll- ton, Brandon X Chatelherault for their order; but they regret to say that, as they have had no previous dealings with this firm, they must have a suitable recommendation or guarantee as to the financial status of Messrs.

NO BANKRUPTCY AT THIS RATE.

There are 20,000,000 acres of pine garden forest standing in Prus- sia to-day. Half of it belongs to the people in common, either to the state or to the village. It paid 40 years ago an average profit of so cents an acre per year. To-day it pays $1.65 an acre. In 20 years, when it is more mature, it will pay three dol lars an acre, net profit, and, in ad- dition to its protective value, will return, from the common forest alone, an income of $30,000,O0O a year to the people.

DEGREES OLD SCHOOL MANNER
According to This Woman There Is No Occasion for Regret at
 Their Passing.

People talk about the decay of manners, but it is good thing that some manners have decayed," said a woman whose memory goes back to times that other people only read of. "Old school manners in the fam fly we can very we'll get on without. The manners of the old school fa- ther were those of a despot, gracious and benevolent in some cases, but more commonly the reverse. The manners of the mother were those of an ambassadress, and the manners of the elder brother or elder sister were those of the head of a depart mcnt of state. These were the more important offices. and below them were sub-otfices. and each one was administered with degree of tyranny that was made endurable only by the fact that those who sui fered could retaliate on members of the family one degree lower in rank. When there was no more family upon whose heads vengeance could be wreaked, the domestic regions were harsssed for such opportunities for inAicting suffering as they might offer.
