Special to The Herald
New York, Oct Although the
theatrical season is not yet nine
weeks old, New York managers have
produced about twenty-five plays
and about dozen of them may be
put down as successes. The hits"
do not number so many, but if not
another play were to be put on this
year or during the season of 1909
1910, there would still be sufficient
new productions to keep the various
circuits busy until vacation time
comes around again next summer
Viola Aliens New Play.
Viola Aliens new play, THE
White Sister," one of the newest as
pirants for popular favor, may be
classed as a hit" for it is drawing
immense crowds nightly to Days
Theatre. This is work of the late
Marion Crawford and is the third
play with scenes laid in Italy in
which Miss Allen has appeared dur
ing the past six years. 1t appeals
particularly to women, for the story
deals with a girl who while engaged
to be married feels it her duty when
her fiance is ordered to the front
in pursuance of his duty as an off
Ger of the Italian army to let him
go without protest When she dis
covers his name in the list of kill
led she enters a convent. The re
port of the young officers death was
erroneous, and he returns to find
her behind the convent walls.
Special music has been written
for the performance by William
Furst. Miss Allen is surrounded by
a cast of players including James
O'Nein. William Farnum, Minna
Gale, Richie Ling, Dwight Dana,
Joseph Whiting, Joseph Carducci,
Fanny Addison Pitt and Belle Chip

try of this star are brilliantly set

Edeson discloses a versatility that
is a surprise to his admirers.
Robertson Coming.
Mr.. Forbes-Robertson's visit to
the United States for only one
months season in New York awak-
ems interest in one of the great
est actors now before the public,
either at home or abroad. His Ham
let. his Othello, his ShyIock, are I'M
forgettabIe memories, and so with
the modren plays in which he has
appeared from time to time
On his present visit he relies en-
tirely on his latest success, The
Passing of the Third Floor Back, "
by Jerome X Jerome, in which he
has already appeared 800 times in
England, this popular play having
enjoyed a run of 200 consecutive
performances in London alone, its

ARKANSAS is FLAGLEss
People Will Appeal to Legislature for
Banner.

OoilliN'f
Out of all the states of the union,
Arkansas is the only one which has no
flag. and this will probably be brought
to the attention of the Legislature
Every few weeks some call is made
upon the governor for one of Arkan-
sas state flags to be used in decor
ating some national convention or Gel
ebration, but the governor must al
ways answer that Arkansas has no
flag, which is embarrassing to the Off
cial as it is reflection upon the
state.
From far away China now comes an
appeal from the American company of
Shanghai volunteer corps. for one OF
the Arkansas flags. The appeal is
made by Charles DENLY, consulgen-
eral of Shanghai, who states that the
American company consists OF 60 ma
tives of the land of the brave and the
free who drill with American guns and
according to the manual of the United
States army, joining with like compan-
les of other nations in Shanghai, to
make up the volunteer corps which
keeps always perfect lighting ma
chine for the protection Of the foreign
ers in that city Consul DENLY says
the American company has now the
| flags of almost every state OF the
union. which are used on state occa
sions and go far to arousing patri
otism in the countrymen, He says
the flags are of all descriptions and al
there are Arkansans in the colony al
Arkansas flag is needed to complete
| the collection
Again Gov Pindall has been forced
to write stating Arkansas has no state
flag. Should the state historical o.
some other society, not urge the mex
legislature to provide a state flag
bearing the state coat of arms or othe
emblem, private citizens may urge TIT
legislature to pass such an act.

In bennington the corrected returns
show a majority of 1893 for license.
There was gain over last year for
both the license and no license forces
but the great part of the gain was for
no license, the increased no license
vote being 220 while the license advo-
Gates gained AZ. Pownal which voted
yes last year by 10 went no yesterday
by %.
1t is said that there are now only
three towns in the state that have vo-
ted for license every year since the
license law went into effect. The
three named are Bennington, Castle
ton and Canaan. The Banner cannot
vouch for the correctness of this re-
port as regards Canaan and Castle
ton.
Winhalls vote for license is the
first time that town ever voted for
license enough it has been quite close
before.

While it has been known that Man
ager Flaherty never looked with favor
upon league base ball for this city,
preferring that strong Independent
club should be maintained here it
needed the meeting at Albany to prop
erly crystalize the sentiment against
league ball.
The recent meeting held in Albany
by Mr. Paige attended by Managers
Flaherty and Ferry and Treasurer
Cain Of Pittsfeld showed conclusive
ly to both Messrs Flaherty and Cain
that while Mr.. Paige might be sin
cere in all his plans that he really
had nothing to offer.
