SPANKING THE THEATER TRUST

The act of John Cort, director of ire great majority of the theaters west of the Missouri river, Albert Weis, who controls the playhouses in .he entire southwest; J. J. Coleman, with almost the complete middle south; Jake Wells and H. l.. deGive, owners and representatives of the large part of the theaters in the south; the firms of Chamberl.ain, Harrington and Kindt and Crawford Philley and Zehrung, with the princi- pal theaters in the middle-w est; c. P. Walker, with his Winnipeg circuit; c. A. Marshall, director of the Copper and Iron circuit; James Wingfield, representing numerous theatres in H. linois, Indiana and Wisconsin; Nose Refs, with over 100 theaters in the cast; and Julius Calm, controlling practically all of New England, in or ganizing the National Theater Owners Association and throwing all of the theaters they represent open to every Iroducing manager, has given decided impetus to the theater business throughout the country.
 While the booking agency of Klaw & Erlanger has been deprived of it's great source of revenue, producers, and theater managers throughout the country will have materially larger opportunity for profits. The policy of the association in forming it's organization so as to make every the.ater owner his own master and enabling him to place in the profit column of his weekly statement the revenue that heretofore went to the firm which heads the syndicate will make a decided difference in the earning capacity of the various play houses.
 In addition to this it will give the theater manager the advantage of se- lecting his attractions and furnish ing to his clientele plays and play CTS who have several seasons been barred from his house and these new attractions are exactly what the theatergoer is demanding. It is an absolutely safe assurance that at least twenty-five of the attractions tbat will be sent out over the diff ferent circuits mentioned will be of much superior merit to those which lave been furnished in the past.
 The organization of the National Iheater Owners Association marks the end of one-man power in the theatrical world and gives everyone interested a chance for a square deal.

Measuri7c Plant Growth.

The United States department of ag-
riculturc has Il clever little instrument
that is used to record the daily growth
OF a plant. The top leaf of Il Seeding
is held in Il tiny clasp which in no
way harms the plant. To this clasp is
attached Il small lever, the point of
which is furnished with an indelible
pencil, which rests lightly upon Il pa
per record. AS the plants grow the
pencil naturally travels upward and
leaves on the paper Il record of the
plants growth. This shows the exact
increase in growth of plants reared by
electricity to those grown normally.

The Marine Gas Erui. 9

In view Of the continual improve
mont which is taking place in the ma
rive tur' me- the outlook for the early
installation of the marine gas engine
in ships of large power is not very
promising says the Scientific American.
Perhaps the future of the latter lies
in the direction of small high speed en-
gines generating current to be used on

FOR Seal Pups
Orphan Animals From Alaskan
Waters Taken 10 Washington.
The Only TWO IN CAPTIVITY.
How BoatsWain Thurber Succeeded In
Raising Cherished Pets He Founa
Starvins-Experts Believe Crphcned
Seals Can Be Saved by His Plan.

"There they are. ana if you don't
treat 'eln right you'll hear from me-"
said Il rough voiced sailorman as he
carefully put down a Slated box in
the office of the bureau of fisheries at
Washington the other morning. In
side were the only two fur seal pups
in captivity The man who gave
them this defiant introduction to their
new home was Boatswain Judson
Thurber of the United States revenue
cutter Bear. Thurber is believed by
the United States government to have
solved the problem of raising orphan
seals.
1t has been many years since as in
teresting Il combination as HoatSWain
Thurbcr and his seals has reached
Washington Every effort of science
has failed to hit upon Il method for
feeding the seal pups orphaned by
hundreds through the killing of their
mothers in Alaskan waters by Japan
csc sealcrs. HoatSWIin Thurbcr found
these two starving. He got some
milk and found ana ri%ged UP the nc
cessories of Il nursery. The seals tried
but could not get the milk. They
seemed to lack something Of the equip
ment of the milk ED animal
Got Ahead of Science.
Right here Thurber seems to have
stumbled upon something which sci
ence in trying to bring up baby seals
has overlooked. He investigated the
mouths of the seals and found their
tongues held down by ligaments which
he thinks kept the animals from get
ting the milk. Then the rough sailor
put his big forefinger in and remedied
the difficulty. The two baby seals
straightway began to get the milk out
of the bottle and to thrive.
When the Bear came south last fan
for the winter the commanding ofli-
Ger reported Thurber's success to
Washington Mr.. Nagel, secretary of
the department of commerce and Ia
Dor. asked Mr.. MacVeagh, secretary Of
the treasury department.. under which
the revenue cutter service comes, to
have Thurber bring his seal pups to
Washington. Meanwhile the proteges
to call for something which they could
chew. Here Thurber found another
difficulty. He threw the fish down
OH the deck. and the babies swayed
their heads from side to side and
looked at him hungrily with big brown
eyes.
Hundreds Nay Be Saved.
"Drat ye. Can't ye eat:' asked
Thurber US he picked up one Of the
fish and shook it in the face of the
biggest seal Snap went the little
jaws. and Thurbcr had discovered chat
seals do not pick their food up off
floor like other animals. a little
thought convinced him that the seal
snatches its fish from below, and after
that the pups were fed from the hand
and seemed to enjoy the fish better
if they had to jump for them.
AT the bureau of fisheries they believe
that the hundreds Of baby seals or
