job worth $500 a year, can hardly be
called a successful financier.
It is to be hoped that the District

tation conditions, but the commission
lacks much necessary authority.
The resignation of Jasper Wilson-tn

just The man for the place, which is
proof positive that the promotion is a
well-earned one.
The recommendations of District Seal

to prevent short weight, will have gen.
eral approval. The dealer in short
weight goods is not entitled to sympa-
thy from any quarter, and the report
shows such a prevalence of the prac-
tce in Washington as to call for Wig
orous measures.

Tremendous Task to Get Eff
fects Described in
Written Poem.

To transform the earth into a Won
derful fairyland. peopled with a strange,
weird folk as the souls of Water, Fire,
enough task for a poet in a rhapsOdic
fight of his imagination.
All he has to say is presto, changer'
and things are as he says they ought to
be. But the poet plays only with words.
1t is different for the play producer.
Yet this was the outlook that stared
the New Theater management when 1t
undertook to stage Maeterlinck's famous
fantasy. THE Blue Bird"
MaeterlnCk, who Is mystic, to whom
all things seem possible, wrote the play
with directions such as these:
THE milk jug upsets, falls from the
table and smashes on the floor. From
the spilled milk there rises tall, beau
tiful figure"
And this:
The mounds OF the graveyard open
and the slabs rise up. Then from the
gaping tombs there rises an effiores-
Cence like steam, that transforms the
graveyard into a sort of fairylike gar
den. The dew glitters, the flowers open
their petals, the bees hum" etc.
1t took years work and nearly $780,
900 before the New Theater director 5
finally succeeded in attaining these ef-
fects, and many others that were just
as weird and novel, that the author had
called for.
For instance: 4 loaf of sugar has to
grow taller and wider and finally split
its covering and become person
Water flows from shimmering
fountain and before you can blink your
eye there stands a woman in a mar
velous, ripping. trickling blue gauze
dress Bread" rolls out of the huge
breadpan in Mother TyTs kitchen, with
all the little loaves, and right before
your eyes, while you are looking
straight at 1t, be becomes a big fat
person, with pretzels for ears, When
the children grow hungry, which Is
almost right away, he must be able to
cut a slice of bread off mis- stomach for
them.
Fire, in a seething blaze Of vermil-
lion must leap from the fireplace
fuIl-fedged person. The dog. Tylo. and
the cat, Tylette. too, must come TO life.
EVERYWHERE there is a miracle being
performed almost every minute.

Madame Maeterlinck
An Accomplished Actress.

Madame Maeterlinck, formerly Geor-
gette lie Blanc, is an accomplished &C
tress, a woman of fine literary and dra-
matte perception, who devotes herself
in a most sympathetic, yet practical
way to her husbands interests. But
more than this, she is the real stage
director of the "Bluebird," and it is
no idle assertion to say that difficulties
of staging this piece transcribed those
of any play ever attempted.
Many of the remarkable effects are
obtained by lights, a so-called rain
bow series of over 100000 lights being
carried by the production to create
some Of the delightful illusions. So
huge is the volume of light that very
little dependence is placed upon the
ordinary footlights. Instead, the illumi-
nation is from the side, creating the
real atmosphere of sunlight
The work of the electricians is con-
siderably increased by the effort to
create the atmosphere of mystery en-
shrouding all fairy tales. Only when
the curtain rises on the first act, and
falls on the last, is the audience aware
of itsSrise or fall on the, various scenes
Each scene grows out Of darkness and
when 1t is over, dims slowly before the
eyes.

Palace Of Night
Most Beautiful Scene.

Is It any wonder the management
| worked a year TO create them?
Perhaps the most beautiful scene Is
! In the Palace of Night. 1t is an unreal
looking garden bathed in white moon
light where. among the stars and the
planets. flying ceaselessly from jewel
to jewel, and from mOonbeam to moon
beam. are blue birds, innumerable, APP
pearing to be the breath and very sub
stance of this wonderful garden. Over
300 doves have been trained to take
part in this play.
The big scene of the play shows the
kingdom of the future. 1t is somewhere
in the far reCesses of the sky, and
everything is the deepest, most dazzling
and celestial blue-the palace, with its
endless corridors and columns, even the
pavement itself, is the same haunting
color. But the inhabitants of this
marvellous palace are even more Won
derful than the palace itself They are
the souls of unborn children, waiting
for the summons which is to take them
TO earth. AS Tyltyl and Myltyl are
talking to them, the enormous gates
which lead from the palace to the cloud
filled depths. swing open, and there
appears a great ship of gold and moth
er of pearl, with Father Time at the
helm. The ship has scared toward the
skyland from the earth, as 1t does every
dawn. to take the children who are
to be born on that day.
Father Time hustles the few aboard,
and the golden galley is launched into
space and sails slowly down to earth.
| AS it becomes a mere speck in the dis
tance there arises from the earth thu;
joyful song of the waiting mothers,
eager to clasp their newborn children
| in their arms.
Perhaps 1t is the practical, yet rever-
ent management of woman that has
| brought the "Bluebird'' so successfully
before the playgoing public. While
Maeterlinck limits his activity to the
| written and published realization of his
! literary conception-if they ever get on
the stage, that is Madame Maeterlinck' S
affair. While the "Bluebird" was in
rehearsal, the Belgian Shakespeare, as
he is called, loitered unconcernedly
about the theater when he felt like it,
and to all questions about the produc-
| ton answered invariably, Really, l
don't know. You'd better ask my wife
about It.

According to T. f. Bradford, who
took the appeal, nothing has been def

appeal Of the mulct petition of con-
sent, which the board of supervisors
held to be in sufficient last summer.
Bradford was asked this morning if.
in view of the ruling of the supreme

drawals of signatures on petition Of
consent, the appeal was to be pressed.
He replied that that was not the only
issue involved in the appeal. but he
could not say yet what action would be
taken regarding the appeal" That is
up to the saloon owners" he said. They
are to meet with me some time soon,
and it will depend on what they want
to do what course is pursued"
