THINGS THEATRICAL.

Joseph and William W. Jefferson, who have been associated with old English comedies for the past several years have wisely abandoned that antiquated style of play and have se- lected Bronson Howard's delightful comedy. "The Henrietta" as their of fering for the coming season. This will be a welcome relief from the pedantic mannerisms of the period of a century ago and the boys should ap- pear to most excellent advantage in a thoroughly modern play like The Henrietta" company of theatrical bright lights will accompany them in the tour of "The Henrietta" and it is safe to expect a great deal of the at traction The Henrietta" is one of the choice bills that will be offered at the Elks' theater in Phoenix the com ing season.
 The two distinctive successes of the season in Chicago are "The Prince of Tonight and The Golden Girl both under the direction of Mort H. Singer. The Prince of Tonight" is the sue cessor of A Stubborn Cinderella" at lIle 1TlnctSS lItdlcIs anu iS pidl HE bO big audiences. The piece is the most lavish production ever staged by Mir Singer, and the scenery and costumes fairly dazzled Chicago when they were first displayed. The Prince of To- night already has passed its 125th performance. and there is every indi- cation that it will run all summer, du plicating the tremendous success of "A Stubborn Cinderella
 At the La Sale theater, 'The Col den Girr' is well along toward it's 150th performance. This production is by far the best thing MT.

Head of a Great Exposition.

John Edward Chilberg, president of the Alaska Yukon Pacific exposition, is credited with a wider acquaintance upon the Pacific coast from Cape Barrow in the Arctic to Valparaiso. Chilli. than any other man, for his activities have carried him into most of the mining camps of Alaska. all the principal cities of the Pacific Coast states. into Mexico, the Central American republics and South Amer ica. It was his intimate familiarity with.the people of the Pacific coast, as well as his achievements in busi- ness and in the development of the Northwest that placed him at the head of the Seattle exposition, which represents an expenditure of ten mil lion dollars and is now running full blast
 The Seattle fire of 1899 wiped out shipping business which young Chilberg had taken over from his father and left him several thousand dollars in debt.
 He went to work harder than ever, this time in trade between Puget Sound and Central and South Amer ica. In this business he laid the foundations for a comfortable for tune
 When gold was discovered in Alas ka MT. Chilberg disposed of his South American interests and joined the ar gOnauts He established a line of freight boats on the Yukon river and in Seattle, when the Nome excite ment broke forth. organized the first stampede into the new camp. He took twenty five hundred men down the Yukon to the shores of Boring Sea in nat-bottomed river boats. Later. in Seattle, he became associ- ated with the Scandinavian American bank. and with associates erected the Alaska building, the tallest structure in the Northwest (fifteen stOries), the New Washington hotel of fourteen stories and several other notable Seat tie buildings.
 For two years Mir. Chilberg has devoted almost all of his time to the exposition. without remuneration. and has been the moving spirit behind the development of the enterprise. Among other enterprises organized by Mir. Chilberg are a life insurance company and a fire and marine in surance concern: he built light and power plants at Fairbanks, Alaska, and at other points, and he has ac- quired heavy mining interests in the north. As may be inferred, he is a typical western hustler. He is forty three years old and is native or Iowa.-Hamptons Magazine.

ONE HOUR IS GAINED.

The city council of Cincinnati has added an hour a day to the leisure time of working people, simply by passing an ordinance setting the clocks ahead an hour, "so as to en- able people to begin their tasks an hour earlier in the morning and knock off an hour earlier in the afternoon. thus gaining an additional hour of daylight for recreation" The feasi- bility of this scheme was first sug
 gested in England, where it was the subject of considerable debate in Par liament It has also been under dis cussion in other places, but Cincinnati is the first com munity in the United States to pass measure of this kind. It becomes effective May 10, 1910, and will continue until October 1. 1910. It is to be feared that any possible ben efits which might accrue from the scheme, if applied to a state or ma ton, will be lost when limited to a city, because of the inevitable con fusion which will result from the clash between local and general time.

TWO KINDS OF WOMEN.


 When college or high school youth go on the rampage and raise Cain it is usual for wise people to ex- claim "Oh, well; boys will be boysl" And because they are boys" which term under those conditions, means hoodlums and toughs. they are per mitted to destroy property, insult respectable citizens and make insuf- ferable nuisances of themselves.
 As We read the story of the freaks and antics of the English suffragettes in London, last week, when they made another attempt to see Pre- mier Asquith, how would it do to gloss over the queer. humiliating mar rative with the remark, "Oh, well; women will be women? Is that sort the new order of womanhood?
 Mrs. Parkhurst, we read. without provocation slapped Inspector Jarvis, in the face. Mrs. Saul Soloman knocked off the inspectors cap twice. Other women en masse tried to rush the police line, but failed. The win dows of the government building were smashed with stones wrapped in pa per. The police exercised the utmost obstreperous females, but were oblig- ed to arrest over 100 of them.
 All this was designed by the gentle creatures who engaged in the per formance to show that women are entitled to the ballot They wished to give England and the world an object lesson which would prove the sweet reasonableness, the self control, the respect for law and order which are essential to the possession of the franchise in self-governed communi- ties. A calm minded man, looking on when Mrs Parkhurst was skipping policemen's faces, and Mrs. Soloman was knocking their hats into the mud, would say: Why, surely, these peo- pie are entitled to vote. They have all the qualifications for the dignity and responsibilities involved in the right to go to the ballot-bo and de- eide questions affecting the peace and welfare of society,""
 Nevertheless, the calm minded man might wend his way homeward cher ishing secretly the hope that his wife. sisters and daughters were not mem- bers of that mob in Parliament square.
 The other day at a meeting of the Washington State Suffragist associa- tion there was quarrel, about what we have not been informed. in which the participants called each other "scoundrels" and liars. At a still later meeting the national associa- tion was insulted for attempting to assume jurisdiction over what was supposed to be a constituent asso- citation.
 In this country We decline to ac- cept the crawling suffragette as a type of the womanhood it is desira- ble to encourage. The gentle-hearted, Iow-voiced woman. gracious, modest, courteous and considerate, in whose tongue is the law of kindness, who is feminine enough to shrink. from the market place and the hustings, whose children rise up and call her blessed, her husband also, he praiseth her" who is the light and comfort of the home, whose life is fragrant with sweet and thoughtful ministry for others, who doesn't pine for mas culine functions. but is glad the good Lord gave her a woman's lot and mission-that is the kind of woman, thank fortune, who is still preferred by sane American men and can do the most for society. the country and

MIR, TAFT BETWEEN SMILES.
How He Disposes of Visitors at Ex-
 ecutiye Office.

Lyman Beecher Stowe in the Circle.
 At clock the sliding doors rolled back and the great man stepped forth. Every one rose, and a thrill went round the room. The President smiled, and every one smiled back. It is safe to say that the Presidents smile is more infec- tious than that of any other member of the Optimists' club of America. It is big, wholesome smile, altogether irresst- able It is surprising how little Mr. Taft s photographs prepare one for the man himself Although weighing oyer 300 pounds, he does not look like fat man. While he Is good natured and jovial, those terms give an entirely false idea of him. The impression of strength and keenness is much more dominant than these char acteristics. He has a clear, ruddy com plexion. and a face that is not too heavy to be handsome.
 Unlike most men, the nearer you come to him the better he looks. His eyes are his most remarkable feature. Were he insignificant in every other respect, his eyes would mark him as no ordinary man. They are a red brown in shade, with curiously slanted lids, and they indicate kindness, shrewdness, infiexible determina- nation Their expression is constantly changing with lightninglike rapidty from mirthfulness to intense seriousness There is disaster ahead of the individual who

DIGGING FOR TREASURE.
Seekers Are After Chests of Gold at
 Fort Ticonderoga.

From the New York Herald.
 Treasure seekers have appeared at the gates of Fort Ticonderoga, which is being rebuilt and restored by Mrs. Stephen H. P. Pell of this city. and are watching eagerly while workingmen are digging for chests of gold
 Advices received here state that the quest is now under way and that a com pany of nine men from Cleveland, O., who have a mysterious diagram, are deeply concerned in the romantic quest
 They appeared at "Old Fort ri" two days ago, saying they had reason to be- lieve that money and valuable property belonging to a relative of theirs, who was active in the war of the revolution was buried near the place. The map they had of the location was prepared or lines similar to the cipher directions which were used by Edgar Allan Poe in his inlmitable story of "The Gold Bug" There was no skull on a high limb through which a bullet might be dropped but there were mysterious measurements calculated from the bastions of the ven- erable defense which Ethan Allen took in the name of the Continental Congress. The spot where the syndicate of nine think treasure is to be unearthed Is be- SOAd tiC AOi NiuNdtlohs buI lllt OlQ French lines and not far removed from the shore of Lake Champlain
 Excavation rights were not granted to the treasure seekers, although they said they sought to dig only small hole. After some consultations by telegraph. however, 1t was decided to let the quest proceed in the spot indicated, the work being done by employees of Mrs. Pell The question of the disposition to be made of any relics or treasure is to be deferred until the results of the present search are ascertained.

mistakes this big, smiling mans good nature for easygoingness.
 One thing MT Tafts smile does is to banish embarrassment.
 In spite of our vaunted equality and I'm as good as you' assertion, the ordi- nary unofficial, undistnguished American citizen is rather nervous when he meets the President of the United States. The way MT. Taft dispels this embarrassment with a glance and smile is one of his small achievements, which must loom large in the aggregate. The smile is genu- inc, because the man back of it is genu- inc
 The Boston newspaper man was the first with an ax to grind. He came in behalf of some office-seeker or office holder He said in conclusions "Mr. President we simply want you to give MT. a square deal"
 The President replied q do not pretend nor desire to quote him verbatim here or later) 'I shall give MT. - square deal A square deal for him and for every one else concerned. When I say square deal, mean a square deal l do not mean a figure of speech. l tell you frankly that from what I know of this case I do not like the look of it.' And he looked at the journalist with a stern ness which made him precipitately seek cover in his second item of business, which related to some kind of prison- reform movement After listening to him intently (Mr Taft is marvellous lstener), the President said: "I approve of your aims, of course. As to your methods I cannot express an opinion until I know more fully what they are. Put your plan on paper and send II 10 me. shall not shade my opinion to suit the predilectionss of amateur reformers. Amateur reforners are too apt to get up a cult and then pronounce everything wicked that does not conform to their cult"

THE DEVIL WORSHIPERS

qualities of St. Chrysostom were ever preached to the benighted negroes by the early missionaries or that the saint him. self did visit the coast of Liberia, the fact remains that St. Chrysostom was the first man to give credence to their superstition.
 "St Chrysostom declares in his writ ngs The people suspect everything and are more in bondage than if they were slaves many times over. This or that man who was first to meet me when I walked out would tell me that innumerable ills would befall me; my servant handed me my left shoe first, sign of misfortune. My right eye twitched upward on issuing forth for a walk, this portends tears. The praying of a donkey, a sudden sneeze the growing of 6 cock, all indicate some- thing.
 ''All of these signs alluded to by St. Chrysostom are taken by the negro as ill omens," said Mir. Ainsley, but he adds in the category the dire msifortunes that follow in the wake of black cat crossing his path and the negro has also dread of hares; in fact, the hare is look ed upon by the negro as the devils har- binger, and I found in some of the more IeIHOl6 SecllOnS Ol lHe T lOTluA that the darkies switch the bushes to warn the hares away, believing them to be vehicles for inps and demons.
 This Florida darky will also chase and kill the hen that crows, which is considered sign of bad luck, and the in dication of the assumption by female of masculine prerogatives.
 'As to devil dancers" said Mr. Aims ley T saw all I ever want to see of their fearsome practices. In the cotton fields of the low ground and the to- bacco patches of the new ground re- mote from civilization, religious orgies are to be witnessed occasionally, where the hymns sung by some itinerant darky revivalist have been transposed to meet the requirements of the devil dancers.
 'I have seen from 40 to 50 white-haired darkies cakewalk around a blazing for est fire, chanting weird songs to twang of improvised banjos or tom toms, and the clap of polished rib bones." MT. Ainsley's negro minstrel crooned

THE LAND OF WEAK KIDNEYS

If is admitted that Brights Disease of the kidneys causes more deaths In the United States than in any other country; that more than half the sick ness in America is due to weak or dis eased kidneys.
 We are a weak-kidneyed people, and the reason is plain. Ambitious to en- toy more than a mere living, to have all the pleasures that our neighbors have, anxious for wealth and success; we overwork, rest little, eat and drink unwisely, and are lon the go' all the time.
 This strenuous life of today tells on Inc kidneys. The human body was planned for a simpler life. There is just so much work that each organ can do. The kidneys filter our blood day and night, receiving 1t in a ceaseless stream, draining off the poisonous impurities. This duty is heavy enough in a normal average life. but when we work early and late, give up rest and repose for en- joynent, and retire late to troubled sleep, the work of the kidneys is increased enor- mously. Every bit of energy consumed throws into the blood a quantity of waste like the ashes of a fire. and if the using ur is too rapid the kidneys cannot keep pace with 1t. A cold, chill, fever, strain or any excess may hasten the inevitable breakdown and as the circulation of the blood never stops, the kidneys have nc time to rest, no chance to mend. Sick < kidneys cannot get well alone.

 A TIER a year spent in the Florida "A Everglades, Henry Ainsley. well 4 \ known English publicist, is re- turning to England to give a series of lectures on the superstitons of the Afr can race MT. Ainsley spent several years in South Africa, Liberia and the West Indies, but he admits he had to come to civilized America to find the real "voodoo man."

 Mr. Ainsley said no race in the world is governed more by superstition than the negro, and that he had discovered in the Florida Glades, far removed from civ ilization, the simon-pure, Binky-haired. low-browed, chinless negro, whose belief in personal devil acts upon him much in the same manner as soothing syrup does upon child
 All the Biblical instruction III the world" said MT. Ainsley, Twill not re- move this religious perversity, for strange to say it is from the Bible that the negro gets the best portion of his philosophy Of life.
 He finds delight in such passages as Take no thought for the morrow The Lord will provide Lay ye not up treas ure on earth Consider the lilies, how they grow they toll not Man that is born of woman is full ot trouble Take a little wine for thy stomach's sake, and many other texts too numerous to recall.
