through the play, IN fact the comedy
rs so rich that 'tls one continuous laugh
from the rise of the curtain until the
finish of the last act. The Chums, Ned
and Jim, live with Mrs. Blakemore,
who has daughter Kate. Ned, who
is practically devoid of feeling or con-
science, leads the innocent Kate to be-
lieve that he is seriously III love with
her, and even promises to marry her
in order to win his point. When she
is ruined and disgraced, Ned turns all
his attention TO another girl by the
name Of Dora Winston. He uses the
same tactics to win Dora s hand. Kate
appeals to him. pleads with him TO
fulfill his promises to her, but Ned
turns q deaf ear to her cntreaties Kate
threatens TO tell all, which greatly en-

success, and which viii be presented at

Leone and their clever company for the

the better class of stock companies
throughout the country and has been
played to capacity business invariably.
The usual excellent staging that Mr.,
Mack gives all the plays he presents
will not be found wanting in this
production, and as the cast is particu-
larly well suited to each role, n per-
feet performance may be expected.
Miss Leone will have the best role she
has played since Carlotta in HThe
Morals of Marcus In the role of
Peggy she is suited both histrionically
and temperamentally and should give an
ideal performance of difficult role

JAPAN HAS ANNEXED KOREA
The Terms of the Contract Submitted
to Representatives of Powers
But Not Made Public.

Toxic, Japan.-The text of the con-
vention under which Korea is annexed
to Japan was communicated to the
representatives of the powers.
The document which, according to
now established facts, was signed Au-
gust 22 will be effective when officially
promulgated This will be, according
to some of the ministers, August 29
or August 80, when the independent
existence of the Hermit Kingdom, the
struggle for whose control started the
Russo-J apanese war, will cease.
Considerable uneasiness is reported
at Seoul owing to the circulation Of
threats of disorder following the an
nexation. Sporadic outbreaks of pro-
test against the absorption of Korea
by Japan are anticipated, but serious
rioting or even widespread objection
from the Koreans to the annexation
are not expected
Korea is believed to have been
founded 1922 B. c. and was annexed to
China in 10S B. G. Later it broke
away and the present dynasty was es-
tablished in 1892.

plxlnlna Rod 200 Years Old.

Winslow w. Fifield Of Medford,
Mass, owns metallic divining rod
brought from England more than two
hundred years ago by one of his an
cestors. The rod. says Mr.. Fi1eld, has
been used successfully all over New
England and in the western mining
districts. 1t is attached to whalebone
handles IL inches long and weighs two
ounces. The handles have inscriptions
on them which are almost obliterated
by age.
The person who brought the rod to
America was Isaac Greenleaf, who set
tied in Massachusetts. The rod became
famous as a finder Of water. After
marking the place Of many springs the
rod was used in California, Colorado
and North Carolina for locating by men
in quest of gold mines and other met
ais. One person who used 1t with par

WILL TEST AIRSHIPS ATTACKS
Real Explosives Will Be Dropped
on the Monitor Tallahassee to
Test Different Theories.

Washington, d. C.-The navy de-
partment proposes to test for itself
the various theories as to the destruc-
tive powers of explosives dropped on
the deck of battleships from airships.
The Monitor Tallahassee has been
ordered to Washington for series OF
tests, me final one of which will be
an encounter with an airship under
battle conditions. The Tallahassee
was first named the Florida and Is a
sister of the Monitor Arkansas.
The theory Of the leading chiefs Of
bureau is that explosives can do no
damage unless the explosion takes
place within confined space. Or
dinance officers in the war department
and signal corps officers think quite
differently. For these reasons the
forthcoming tests will be of supreme
Importance as the points to be de-
termined is not whether bomb can
be dropped on battle ship but what
harm it will do.

COULD PREVENT FOREST FIRES
Not Providing Rangers With
Proper Equipment.

Washington, D. C.-Gifford Pin
chot of the National Conservation as
sociation and formerly head of the
government forest service, holds in a
statement, that the loss of property
and life in the recent and present
forest fires was unnecessary.
The disastrous results, he says, are
traceable to the unpreparedness to
deal with the fire situation. He scores
members of congress who have op-
posed appropriations for the proper
equipment of forest rangers and in
that connection names Senator Hey
burn of Idaho, whose home town, Wal
lace, suffered serious loss; Senator
Carter of Montana and Representative
Hendell of Wyoming.

EIGHT HOURS IN A ClSTERN
A mother Plunged Into Water to Save
Her Haby-Nearly Exhausted
When Help Came.

Sedan, Kansas.-Mrs. John Burch
wife of a young farmer living near
here, saved her child from drowning
in a cistern by plunging into the water
after it and holding it in her arms
above the water until help came eight
hours later.
The baby, less than years old, was
playing about the cistern when the
trap door on the platform gave way
under her weight and she fell into
the water, several feet below. The
mother saw the child disappear under
the water and leaped into the cistern
after it. The water was nearly five
feet deep and Mrs. Burch had hard
work to keep the child above the
water.
When her husband came in about
8 o'clock from his fields he searched
the house, then the barn, then the
orchards for his wife and baby. Final
ly he thought Of the cistern, and turn
ing his steps toward it heard his wife
calling, and quickly rescued them.
The wife collapsed completely from
the strain after being carried into the
house.
The neighbors are talking of seek
ing a Carnegie medal for Mrs. Burch.

The Counterfeit southerner.

OF course. there are many counter
feits. A most amusing imitation is
one that often passes for the typical
southerner in New York. This satchel-
mouthed braggart infests the cafes
and demands attention by his abusing

sense of honor. Il hate a niger, sub,
he loudly proclaims, which Is senti-
ment that one never hears from those

1t is poor fun to practise his gentility

He wears a wide black hat, mounts
the table and yells whenever the band
plays a southern melody. Such pre-
tentious caricature would be harmless
enough, but for the ridicule he brings
upon the south. Unfortunately, popu-
lar authors seem to accept him at face

Wasted Sarcasm.

The Philadelphia milk dealers who
recently raised the price Of their
product to nine cents quart and then
lowered 1t again to eight appear to
have been the subjects Of a great deal
of unjust censure. They announced
at the time Of the raise that milk
could not be sold at eight cents with
out loss. Finding that the consumers
would not pay the new price, however.
they are continuing to sell at the old.
thereby qualifying as genuine philan-
thropists. Every purchaser of milk
at eight cents a quart will doubtless
hereafter feel that he is an object Of
charity.
