FREAKS OF NATURE.


Two Queer Rock Formations on the
island Of ST. Helena.
There are at least two queer freaks
Of nature on the island OF St Helena
or. rather. four. for one Of them is a
group Of three figures - known the
world over as the Devils Nose" and
Lot and His Daughters" Any one
who is able to study the island as 1t Is
and not run wild over the NapOleonic
legends which have clustered about
that 'seabOund rock" since the days
when the Little Corporal was housed
there in his living grave viii find much
that will repay for investigation. time
and study.
The queerest Of the natural forma-
lions are the oddities above alluded to.
The first of these Initiative forms Is
rocky promontory which has been
known by names which signify Old
Nick's nasal projection since May Y,
1902, when Juan Castella and his men
sighted the island Just In time to see
the devil disappear beneath the waves
In the best harbor. leaving his nose as
a reminder Of what might happen
should the venturesome Spaniard seek
to take possession OF his Satanic maj
esty's favorite haunts.
LOT and His Daughters" are three
conical rocks which can only be CON
Jured into representing a man and two
women by a strong play of the imag-
nation. According TO the views Of
some writers they are weather worn
statues Of colossal size, probably the
work Of some aborigines of the island.
Their gigantic size, however, would
seem to preclude this idea. When or
by whom they were dubbed LOT and
His Daughters" no authority has ven
tured to say.

THE BELASC0.
aeon & CO."


There can be no possible doubt about
the success Of the first production made
by Henry W. Savage since he has joined
the ranks Of the independents. Last
night at the Belasco TLeater, before a
large audience, he produced a farce-com-
edy that is a roar OF hearty laughter
from beginning to end-"Con & Co" As
Theodore e Co" by Nancy. Gavault &
Armont, this farce was the hit OF the
season last year in Paris. where Mr.
Savage saw it and bought IT, It has been
Americanized-in spots-by the clever hu-
mOrist, Oliver Herford, and Il It has lost
any Of its humor in the translation II
must have made Paris a gayer city than
usual last year.
For here is a comedy that is more
farce than legitimate comedy; that vet
has the fine appeal Of brilliant dialogue;
the humor OF clever situations. well con-
ceived and admirably carried out. brill
liant characterization, and plot so full
OF complications that there seems enough
for two comedies. and yet II is all the
time in touch with consistency. and does
not strain the imagination. The result
Is that there is not a single dull moment
in the play; there Is action all the time;
mighty little explanation that is not fun
ny, and 1t keeps the audience in a con-
slant gust Of laughter. Those who can
make two laughs where only one grew
before, deserve well Of their country in
these parlous times. and the success that
cannot fail to come to Mr.. Henry w.
Savage and to Oliver Herford through
the merits Of "Con & Co" will be well
deserved.

Hall was Mr.. Everett Butterheld. who
had his first opportunity OF the year TO
play a lead. He was a success in the
ambitious and difficult role of Sir Regi-

Mr.. Butterhelds work here has been
watched with interest by patrons OF the
summer stock. and his friends predict
an unusual future for him.

The play itself involves a will with
matrimonial restrictions, the scheming OF
solicitor and legatee to circumvent the
codicils thereof consequent temporary
marriage, with final outcome that sends
the audience home smiling. The play IS

Columbia Players. who have captivated
