ATE A WHOLE SHEEP.
One of the Feats Of Nicholas Wood, .
Famous Glutton.

One of the Feats Of Nicholas Wood, q
Famous Glutton.
The following account Of a man
named Nicholas Wood. famed for his
gluttony, was written by John Taylor.
the water poet" Of the seventeenth
century:
Nicholas Wood was a Kentish yeo-
man. BE it known to all men to
whom these presents shall come"
writes John Taylor that l. John Tay-
Tor, waterman of ST. Savior's In South
wark, will. with plain truth. bare and
threadbare, treat of the remarkable ac-
lions Of Nicholas Wood.
"He hath eaten a whole sheep at one
meal: pardon me! think he left the
skin, the wool and bones; and present
~ after he hath swallowed three pecks
of damsons. Two loins Of mutton and
one loin of veal are but three sprats
to him. Once at Sir William st. Ledg-
er's house, SO valiant and staunch Of
teeth he showed himself. that he ate
as much as would suffice thirty men.
and afterwards he slept eight hours.
Zone morning l sent for him to the
inn to eat breakfast. He had already
eaten one pottle of milk. one polite Of
pottage. and bread, butter, and cheese.
He gave me thanks and said that If he
had known any gentleman would have
invited him to breakfast he would
have spared his meal at home. Never
theless he would do me the courtesy
to show me some small cast of his Of.
fee. Whereupon summoned the host
ess and commanded that all the VIC
tuals in the house be laid before my
guest.
"The inn was slenderly provided. but
six-penny loaves were mounted two
stories high like rampant, three six
penny veal pies. one pound Of sweet
butter. and a number Of other dishes
were set out, all OF which were quickly
brought to nothing"

theatrical appeal. But "The Great Di. vide,' written by the foremost of America s younger poets, William Vaughn Moody, is literature that will endure, while at the same time it is one of the most absorbing intensely dra. matic and human plays ever produced. It's three acts are crowded with ipterest, charged with passion and filled with ac- ton. Undoubtedly it is the most Amer ican play our stage has seen. The first two acts are laid in Arizona--in the heart of that great continental divide separating our east from our west-and the third is in Massachusetts.
 The drama might be called strug- gle between the spirit of the east and the spirit of the west. It tells the TO- nance of an eastern woman, in whose life and habits were ingrained the tra- ditions and conventionalities of a long line of Puritan ancestors, and q western man, as untrammeled in mind and action as the plays and mountains over which he roamed. phis man and woman were strangely brought together. Their woo ing was more strange still, and their life together the strangest thing of all.
 The purpose of the play is to show how these contrasted natures were re coneiled by love-to prove that love can overcome the great divide between man and woman whose thoughts, beliefs and manners have nothing in common. MT. Moody developed this theme with a master hand, giving logical, strongly welded plays that hold the spectators attention, irresistibly, from the first curtain to the last.
 The production, made by arrangement with that master of stagecraft, Henry Miller, is handsome and complete in every detail. The atmosphere of the picturesque west is faithfully created. The first scene, the interior of ranch house, will be familiar to every plains man, and the second, plateu on the "roof of the world '' in the Cordilleras, is a true reproduction of wild noun tainous region. The third is the cozy parlor of New England home. The cast is one of the strongest and most evenly balanced ever gathered by MT. Miller

GAMBLING, IN AN
 OLD TIME THEATER

"The old French theater. which was patronized by the Four Hundred of New Orleans in the days when my institution said Dr. ]. l.. Devonne.
 In those days not only was it the scene of the finest acting in America, but the big building was devoted to other pleasures far outside the Thes- plan entertainments, It had spacious ball room and hooks where the best caterers of the day served exquisite Suppers, and there was beneath the same roof great apartment where gambling was in full blast during the progress of a play. i have heard my sire tell how the rich young creole bloods would slip out between acts and win or lose thou sands before returning to their seats. Some of them, of course, got too fascin. ated or too deeply involved ever t0 re- turn.

MESSAGE OF TAFT NJ SURPRISE ID WALL STREET Stocks Relapse Into State of Dullness After Pub
 lication of Note

NEW YORK, January 7.-Whatever may be thought of the influence of the president s message on the stock mar ket. it cannot be supposed there was anything in it that was news to that region. The preparation of the docu- ment, moreover, invited such wide spread consultation and such free pre- liminary discussion by the author in public addresses that scarcely any pass age will be regarded as novelty. Ever since his conference with railroad presidents at the White House last Mon day, the stock market devoted most of its attention to taking measures prompt ed by the views of the president, The result was seen in the state approaching idleness into which the market fell after the message was published.

RISE IN BERLIN
Associated Press1

NEW YORK, Sept. 24-The hating
uncertain tone of the speculation in
stocks was unaltered today in the abb
sence of any conclusive development
to point to the course of events which
are awaited.
General evidence of the tightening
of the money market was a failure,
the influence being the preparation for
the coming october settlements. In
Berlin, especially, these are always
heavy, and the rise in the private dis
count rate to the level of the official
rate of the Imperial bank of Germany
presages an early rise in that rate.
The private rate in Paris also is
hardened and demands upon the Bank
of England arouses discussion of a
possible early advance in that rate.
Today 22500,000 was withdrawn from
the English bank for shipment to
Egypt.
The cotton bill dispute complicates
the exchange situation, and is re-
sponsible also for some extra demands
from banks in the south for redis-
counting in New York. There was
some movement today in stock of mi
nor railroad properties in reorganiza-
tion, but the general list was inert.
The loan expansion shown by the
bank statement was expected in view
of the redscounting for southern
banks, but the cash decrease was less
than expected. The actual surplus
is thus left $17, 964 900
Bonds were firm; total sales, par

Special service to The Herald by J. c. Will

New York stock exchange and San Francisco
bond and stock exchange. 2l2 West Fifth street.
Los Angeles.
CHICAGO Sept 24-More easiness was
shown in today's wheat market than for sew
eral days. Week end liquidation by few
longs made a little addition to the ordinary
load and there was also some little increase
In the short selling. Nevertheless the market
has not been notably changed in character
from that Of all week-narrow, local and large
~ professional There is no claim of export
business, eastern mills say poor milling call,
and eastern owners of cash wheat talk Can
adlan competition, even with the 25c per
bushel import duty, unless more foreign de-
mand develops for the Canadian wheat. Re-
ceipts for the week were trife less than the
shipments out There is prospect OF large
worlds shipments to show officially on Mon
day, but the visible supply figures VIII fall
short Of year ago, when there an increase
of 313s 900 bushels in the American visible.
Without some strength from abroad or export
business the market looks as though it might
drag off some further.
Corn made a poor showing today. Morning
weather map showed that rain had been gem
eral over the corn belt west of Ohio, while the
later forecast and private advices showed that
weather was clearing generally and cooler, but
with no prospect of frost anywhere. Eastern
demand for cash corn was dull with yester-
days bids here withdrawn, but Baltimore re-
ported considerable export sales made over
night There has been further short selling
here today from the same influential sources.
as Yesterday 1t has been considerable on the
hard spots but less on declines.
Oats weakened with the other grains. There
was some week end liquidation and a little
more courageous short selling than usual from
scattered sources, but no important pressure.
The provisions trade was rather limited.
Lard was frmer for near deliveries, the buy
ing being fairly important, while distant
months ruled easier.
