to the playwright. But this strikes one
as rather inclined to absurdity The
Hon. Jim could go about his game in
quite a different fashion Besides, II
the telephone girl could hear, anybody
else in the hotel lobby could hear. And
the only reason that no outsider hears
is because the sagacious stage manage
ment keeps everybody else out of sight.
Here Is the telephone switchboard, here
are the telephone booths, of a promi-
nent hotel in Washington, and in order
that four politicians may talk loudly
OF their secret plans" so that only the
telephone girl may Cverhear, nobody else
appears in what would he a constantly
busy place; no message comes over the
switchboard, none is sent, nobody comes
in to use a booth. How considerate of
every one, How like the constant
scenes at the Willard, the Arlington, the
Raleigh or any other Washington hotel
where the political game is played and
the hotel business carried on! Yet this
scene has exhausted the praise Of many
writer's to whom it appears wonder
fully veracious deed in stagecraft.
Stagecraft it may be, but none of us
who have been Washington correspond
ents will be much impressed by its ver-
acity.
An interesting play, though, and in its
way strong one. But 1t is scarcely
necessary to expect that the work will
reveal to the public anything that it
did not know before about the opera
tions of political machines" The news
papers, the magazines and political
persons themselves have been busy In

/ G. .Lenotre. has been brought out with
success at the Bouffes- Parisiens. Baron
de Batz was a brilliant and clever royal
ist youth. who sought to work up a
counter revolution. and made a quixotic
attempt to rescue Marie Antoinette from
the guillotine on the very morning OF
her execution. De Batz, as presented
by NJ. Jose -Frappa. is n captivating fig
ure having qualities that remind one in
turns of Don Quixote, Cyrano de Ber-
gerac Mephistopheles and Sherlock
Holmes
l The action passes in Paris. 1t is Octo-
ber 16, 1893. Marie Antoinette has been
executed De Batz, discouraged at his
failure to save the Queen, returns to his
little apartment. where his friend, the
attractive actress Genevieve Grand
maison, awaits him. Genevieve urges
him to make another effort, this time TO
rescue the Dauphin from prison. a
courageous admirer of Marie Antoinette,
Mrs. Atkyns, formerly an English ac-
tress. has succeeded in bringing a large
sum Of money to Paris for the royalist
conspirators 4 highly amusing and
droll contest ensues between De BatZ
and a certain Sonar, chief Of the detec-
tive police of the Convention, to obtain
possession Of this money.
This clever detective comedy has a
sentimental vein, in the romance OF
Geneyieve. who finally marries De Batz,
but who is prosecuted by the terrible
Sonar. who also has fallen in love with
her. The play contains picturesque cpl
sodes of the French Revolution, both
tragic and comic. and is thoroughly
amusing. The part of Genevieve Grand

The Tobacco Question.

Sentiment is greatly divided among
the tobacco growers of Bourbon county
as TO whether or not the cut-out pledge
adopted at the meeting of the Burley
growers held in Lexington recently
should be adopted, and when the rep
resentatives of the Burley Tobacco
Union meet the growers OF the county
In this city Saturday to secure pledges
to cut out the crop of 1911, they are
almost sure to meet a strong opposi-
ton.
Ii is claimed by the advocates of the
cut-out movement that the majority of
the growers of the county favor the
endorsement of the pledge while on
the other hand the opposition contends
that eighty-fve per cent of the grew
ers of the county wish to raise crops
OF tobacco this year.
The News has taken particular pains
to look upon both sides of the contro-
versy and has interviewed prominent
men who are both for and against the
movement planned by the Burley To-
bacco Union in securing pledges TO cut
out the crop this year.
A number of growers, looking for
ward to putting in large crops this sea-
son. have either leased or purchased
lands with this object in view and con-
tracted with tenar for handling the
crops. One farmer last year mace a
contract for two crops of tobacco. In
1910 he raised more than one hundred
acres and should he cut out the 1911
crop it would mean a great financial
loss to him. Other farmers claim that
BY cutting out the crop it will mean
financial ruin to many growers in this
county.
In tne contrary those who are in fa-
vor of cutting out the crop this year
are mostly growers who have on their
hands tobacco from previous years
that has not been disposed of and as a
crop this year would only increase the
bulk of tobacco on the market. they
fear quitting the markets with the
weed will only force the price down.
ward and they will suffer severe loss
es as a result.
Those who oppose the plan of the
Burley Tobacco Union say they are in
sympathy with any reasonable means
to combat with the tobacco trust but
the cut-cut movement came tho late,

Nav Have Perished in Fire.

Brent Marshall, aged about 46 years
of Cnvington, vice president of the
brokerage firm of Early & Daniels, a
nephew Of Mrs. Belle Brent Alexan-
der. and a cousin of n. Ford Brent. of
thhis city, is believed to be one of the
six persons buried beneath the debris
of the Commerce building in Cincin-
natl, that was destroyed by fire Tues.
day night.
Since the catastrophe nothing has
been heard of Marshall and it is al
most certain that he was buried be
meath the tons of debris when the roof
of the immense structure, weakened
by the fire that WIS raging in the up
per stories gave way.
Marshall was known to have been in
the building when the alarm OF fire
sounded. He had been to the home .of
his sister, Miss Bessie Marshall, and
had returned to the office of the
brokerage firm to attend to some i'm.
portant business When the alarm Of
fire was given he rushed from the
office into the corridor to make an in
vestigation.
He was informed by an:Ofiice boy 'Of
the impending danger, but thinking
perhaps that the fire was of small con-
sequence, gave 1t little concern and is
said to have returned TO the office
where called another member of the
firm and conveyed the information to
him saying he would take care of all
the valuables in the office. In another
instant while he was standing at the
telephone the party at the other end of
the line heard a thunderous roar, a
scream and the victim carried to tine
basement below with the roof and
walls of the building.
All efforts on the part of other men,
bers Of the firm to again get in COM
municaticn with Marshall proved fu-
tile.
