a paragraph stating that he would very much like to see the novel dra- nlafized and played by Robert Ede- son. This note and the fact that the story concerned a Sioux Indian, MT. Blossoms fayorite stage type, induced him to secure a copy of the book and read it. He was ct once struck with the idea which deals with an Indian who is married to d white girl and finds she is in love with white man, then agrees to leave her and allow her to secure a divorce and marry the white man. It took him only a few hours to decide to write a play on this idea. and all last season he spent his spare nome ents on the manuscript. When he closed his sea- son and returned to New York early in May he read the finished play to his manager, Henry B. Harris. They decided on an imm ediate7 production of the play and it was actually pro- duced at the Colonial Theatre in Bos- ton after only three days rehearsal. It was received very favorably in that city, and played three weeks to tremendous business at the end of a bad season. MT. Edeson decided at the close of the Boston run to make Where the Trail Divid es.' his vehicle for this season and he spent the summer at his home in Sag Harbor, making a few minor changes in the play and perfecting it. Local play goers will have an opportunity of seeing MT. Edeson in this play at Jackson's theatre next Friday and Saturday evenings. and Saturday matinee.

WHY ONE STAR WROTE HIS OWN
 PRODUCTIONS

If you had been importuning play wrights for years to write you a cer- tain kind of play and yet could never get the proper vehicle to star in, what would you do? Write a play yourself? :? Well this is just what Rob ert Edeson has gone and done. MT.
 Edeson has not had play that was perfectly satisfactory to him since "Strongheart'' his famous football Indian piece in which he scored his greatest success. He has tried in vain to secure a piece to his liking but whether it has been his fault or thet of the play builders, at any rate he has been unsuccessful. About q year ago the idea of writing a play for himself entered MT. Edeson's head. He had just discarded t'The Noble Spaniard'' an English piece which was entirely unsatisfactory. While he had never attempted play writing yet his long stage experience made the task simpler for MT. Ede- son than it would be for many a high class writer with no practical stage experience. At this psychologf- cal moment the star chanced to look over the literary column of the Springfield, Mass, Republican, and noticed a review, of Will Lillibridge's novel Where the Trail Divides" The reviewer commented on the book favorab1y and closed his notice with

-~-------O-- AEROPlANE PROPELLERS.

The first aerial screw was proposed and used by Leonardo da Vinci. the great artist, architect and man of learning of Italy, who, like Giotto and Michael Angelo. was too big for any one art to contain. writes Warren H. Miller. in The Engineering Magazine for September. After the fashion of most master minds. he went right to the heart of the matter and pointed out the ideal propeller for air naviga- tion, but it was centuries after before the little men around him could get away from the follies of oars, paddle wheels. windmills and such primitive ideas that encumbered their minds. and it was not till 1884 that a series of Frenchmen finally developed the screw for balloon propulsion: 50 years thereafter. it approached the true helix under Dupuy de Lome, in 1872. Colonel Renard in 1888 published the results of his numerous experiments on the losses due to slip, etc, and the causes thereof. and gradually it became ap- parent that these should not exceed 80 per cent of the work of the motor in any well designed screw The devel- opment of the various types soon again evolved two classes-slow-s speed and large diameter, and high-speed with small diameter At present both classes have their ardent adherents. but, in view of the conclusive results in favor of the slow speeds and large diameter, obtained by experments with ordinary blast fans during the last few years, there is no doubt that the best results are gotten by the slow speed and reasonable diameter of pro- pellers. The French never use two

RURpENING THE PEOPLE.

No doubt the people are. or would be. well qualified to vote on thirty two initiative and referendum meas ures if they were fully studied and understood. Yet they are never thoroughly scrutinized by all the peo- pie nor will they ever be under the present system. No question as to whether the people are intelligent enough to pass on these many meas ures is involved.
 The average citizen does not and will not inquire carefully and fully as to all Initiative measures, nor is it reasonable to expect that he should. Certainly he is competent to say what he wants, just as compe- tent as the average legislator For the legislature is made up wholly of average citizens.
 But it is the business of a legis- lature to legislate. Legislation means consideration. revision. compromise. adjustment. amendment and orderly arrangement. The initiative as we know it is the negation and repudi- ation of all these. A legislature is not perfect. but. being made of hu- man beings, is far from perfect Yet how is legislature of 150,0O0, pass ing on all subjects, an improvement on a legislature of 90?
 Why cannot the initiative be con- | fined to elemental questions upon | which the people desire to pass and upon which, then, they ought to pass?
