The Masculine Wio.

Civilization has TO thank the French
revolution and the subsequent wars
for masculine emancipation from the
wig. 1t was partly the scarcity Of
-four and the war tax on hair powder
that banished the powdered wig. but
partly also the leveling influence Of
Jacobinism. Il do not know the pres
ent generation by sight" wrote Wal
pole in 1891. complaining that the
young men in their dirty shirts and
shaggy hair have ieveled nobility as
much as the nobility in France have"

West Richmond Street Car De-
moliShed a Commons
Dairy Wagon Today.
DRIVER WAS NOT INJURED
SECOND TIME SAME MoroRMAN
HAS STRUCK COMMONS WAGON
SINCE oCTOBER-DAMAG SUIT
MAY BE RESULT.

As Clyde Reece was attempting to
drive the horse hitched TO one of Com
mons dairy wagons across the street
car track AT West First and Rich
mond avenue this morning. about =
O'Clock, one of the city cars driven by
Walter Reid struck the wagon and
considerably demolished ii. The We
hicle was overturned and Reece was
imprisoned inside. il being necessary
for him to break the glass in the door
IN order TO get out. He was not in
jured. A number of milk bottles were
broken and several gallons OF the
liquid were spilled on the snowy
street.
This is the second accident that has
occurred to the Commons Dairy COM
pany wagons within the past few
months. The accidents were almost
exactly similar and il is rather a Pc
culiar coincidence that in each case
the motorman whose car struck the
dairy wagon was the same. The first
accident occurred last October Reid
formerly worked for the dairy COM
pany.
May Make Double Claim.
1t is said that the bill for DAMAGES
for the first accident was presented
to the Terre Haute. Indianapolis and
Eastern traction company. but no set
Element has yet been made. II was
declared this afternoon that another
bill would be presented. including
damages for both accidents. and that
If the company refused to settle. the
case would be carried to court and a
law suit would be the result. Reid Is
not a regular motorman. but is what
is known as an extra man. He
claims that he was running his car
east on Richmond avenue and that
Reece was driving along the side of
the track. going in the same direction
when without warning he attempted
to cross the track at West First street
with the result that he was struck.
The motorman claims that he did not
know Reece was going to cross the
track and did not have time to stop
his car when he realized the mans in
tention.

7. RS Animals Surprise to Zoo
Collection Arrives at Philadelphia and Among Them Is Rea
Live Wart Hog, a Rare Animal.

Philadelphia, Dec. 27.-Since the
days of Roosevelt and ruction at
Washington, since those blessed times
of the -with-the-soft-body the
hard-face, the mollycoddle, and my
policies, it has been the general opin-
ion that there existed nowhere upon
earth an intelligence SO torpid that
the name and fame of the great Am
erican Nimrod had not penetrated it.
1t was thought that the man of the
loud noise and the big stick had reg
istered an impression upon every liv-
ing being with the nervous system
of an oyster.
But let the astonishing fact be here
recorded that yesterday for the first
time the waves of Roosevelt energy
beat upon the perception of a very
live and highly complicated group of
creatures, and, as usual. those waves
made them turn about with a jerk
and take more than casual notice.
This group included one oryx. three
macropus rufuses. Sing-sing ante
lope, two bless-bok, a gigantic Gland
and ? number of leche antelopes.
The influence of Roosevelt shook their
cerebrums nightly and served to in
troduce to them a number of animals
they had not met.
Learn of Mighty Hunter.
This aggregation Of creatures with
the queer names and insular intelli-
gence had some excuse for not having
heard of the mighty one. for they
have lived their recent lives in exile.
There is no doubt whatever that they
spent a busy item last night gather
ing in Roosevelt information from the
cage next to theirs. or just across the
way.
1t was the loud noise, sure enough,
which first appraised these tardy in
telligences of the existence of one
Roosevelt They were all of them
browsing or Eliminating over the
creamy cud Of midafternoon in the
antelope house at the Geological Gar
dens. when their keen ears detected
the walls of their home Then they
heard doors hang, bolts fall. men
shouting and strainins under heavy
burdens. sliding doors lifted, and the
patter of strange hoofs- on the floor OF
their abode.
There certainly was a ruction while
the new beasts were being transferr-
ed to their cages in the antelope
house. Superintendent Carson, of the
gardens, worked hard to take the best
care Of the late arrivals from Africa,
but they simply would not behave.
They cut up many pranks in the sur
roundings which were SO strange 10
them. They were all OF them hoofed
animals, and the two weeks which
they will spend At the gardens here is
due to the fact that they have been
ouarantined. as all hoofed animals
are. in order to test their freedom
from animal diseases. They all arriv-
ed on the steamer Moltkefels. having
been sent by the great hunter to the
National Zoo, al Washington.

consisted in not having sense enough
to back up
In one instance this came near to
producing disastrous results. One of
the husky brutes got his head around
frontwise and tried to twist about in
the box so as to walk out in dignified
style. OF course, he got caught, and
there was fear that he would end up
by breaking his sweet neck and en-
barrassing Teddy by coming out rath-
err more dead than alive. But twist
out he did somehow. and with all his
bones intact. Another Gland got his
horns fast in the wood and wanted to
take the wood along on his antlers;
but he, too, shook free without mis-
hap.
And the Warthog-WeI.
A waterbuck. a shaggy-haired. dull.
cowish-lookine beast, with no apparent
excuse for being at all. came out of
one of the boxes and then across on
the other side there set up a bowling
and a squealing that made even the
bless-bok show some signs of interest.
When the lid was lifted from this
cage there issued forth what surely is
the ugliest beast alive. denominated
the warthog, very apt and express
sive title. He is the prize of the
bunch of Roosevelt animals at the
zoo. He looks Just like an ordinary
black pig until he turns around and
looks you in the eye. Then he looks

of outside spectators witnessed this
interesting arrival of Roosevelt Afri-
can catches. They will be on view all
through the holidays and should prove
of unusual attractiyeness for all who
like to see the varieties of nature.

tive and made a great hit with all who witnessed its production, the management announces that the offering for this week will even surpass it in the exciting dram atic situations and thrilling effects that give the melodrama such a strong hold on the public. "The Midnight Express" as the name implies, offers ample oppor- tunity for scenes and effects that keep the audience in a state of expectancy, and staged as it will be, in a most com plete manner, with all the important de- tails elaborately taken care of, 1t Is sure to be the most popular bill yet offered by this company.
 It is seldom that in such short time the members of a stock company become so we'll liked by the theatregoers as Is shown by the appreciation accorded to Miss Paige and those of her company. Composed as 1t Is of players of real tal- ent, each member doing his or her part capably and pleasingly, the productions given by Miss Paige and her company have been in every way creditable
 'The Midnight Express is full of ex- citing features, and is play made up of those situations which appeal strongly to the heart interest of the audience. One of it's startling effects is a railroad train which traverses the stage, in full view of the audience. Other strong scenic and stage effects mark the production as one that never fails to make delightful im- pression.
 There will be performance every night this week, with matinees on Monday Wednesday and Saturday. Popular prices prevail at each performance.

Mir. ManteII's Engagement.

Great interest eenters in the engage ment of Robert Mantell and his excellent company at the Jefferson, which begins tomorrow night. On that occasion MT. Mantell will begin an engagement of three nights and a matinee during which he will present four of the greatest plays in English literature.
 On Monday evening Mr. Mantell will give possibly the most difficult play from the actors viewpoint In all of the many written by William Shakespeare, namely, 'King Lear This will be fol- lowed on Tuesday evening with a sump- tuous production of Hamlet" and on Wednesday afternoon he will present .'Romeo and Juliet" to be followed on Wednesday night with Shakespeares eel ebrated comedy, '.The Merchant of Ven ice"
 Residents of Birmingham and vicinity have indeed a great treat in store in these remarkable productions, for MT. Mantell is conceded to be the foremost actor in the English speaking world. His company is the best that it is pos sible to assemble in America, if the people are to believe the enthusiastic statements of the reviewers of the met ropolitan press and the newspapers of Philadelphia, Chicago, Pittsburg and other cities where MT.

The acting of MT Mantell has called forth superlative praise upon the part of hundreds Of critics of stage matters. It has been the subject of scores of magazine articles and hundreds of newspaper com ments MT Mantell is, indeed, recog- nized as the successor of Edwin Forrest, Edwin Booth.
