New York, June 8.-The successful
revolution that has taken place in the
theatrical world within the past few
weeks has brought forth an unusual
amount of comment in the daily pa
pers and periodicals throughout the
country, and theatre-goers have be-
come much interested in the battle
which has been raging.
The National Theatre owners AS
sociation has almost completely ac-
complished the purpose the directors
had in mind when the organization
was formed just one month ago, that
of opening the doors of every cembi-
nation theatre in the country to all
meritorious attractions desiring time
and thereby giving to play-goers the
best entertainment the country af-
fords That this movement is almost
unanimously appreciated is demon
strated in the flocking to the Inde-
pendent Standard Theatre Owners,
producing managers and players in
numbers that scarcely dared be hoped
for. Desertions from the theatrical
trust have been more marked during
the last few days, and there is every
indication that they will be even
greater within the next week.
One of the most important incidents
is the affiliation with the independ

Has Old Coins.

d. d. Good, bookkeeper and cash
ier in the Adams & Brobst furniture
and implement store, has collection
of old American coins of which he is
justly proud. While not large, the
collection contains many pieces of
money with which the present genera
tion is unfamiliar The oldest coin is
one minted in 1882. The date is still
distinct, but the lettering has been
worn away until the denomination can
not be made out. Judging from its
size, however, its value is about 12 Y
cents. Mr.. Good has many other coins
ranging in date from 1906 to 1910. He
has made no particular effort along
the line of collecting, but took in these
old coins in the regular course of
trade while conducting a store in the
East several years ago.
