Theatrical Notes

F rom Judges Library.
 Edmond Rostand's new comedy, "The Lobster in which all the characters were to be shell fish, has been pigeon- holed by the management of the The atre Francaise, owing to the apparent im- possibility of finding a comedian who can put action into the roie of the oyster. It is rumored along the Rialto that d prominent manager has recently written to MT. William Shakespeare of Stradford- Avon. offering him large inducements to come to this country and dramatize the Hon. Theodore Roosevelt The reply Is awaited with eager interest
 That the drama should affect the price Of edible commodities seems almost a preposterous thing but 1t is whispered | that the high price of eggs at the pres- cnt time is entirely due to the successful production of Rostand's "Chantecler'' at Paris, thousands of hens having left the | farms in hope of going on the stage We fear there will be some broken hearts when they reach Broadway

Modern Fiction

From the St. Louis Times.
 We infer that the art of writing fiction is looking up.
 A recent n-fction-that has come to the desks of the literary review CTS undertakes to defend the theory that before young people permit an engage ment matrimoniaD to become binding, the two should assume strictly brother and sister relationship for a long time.
 We do not quarrel with this thems. which seems to us very reasonable one, but we have had our faith in art rude ly shaken by the manner in which 7"our author has developed his theme.
 Chapter xxv is headed Mona on Flu renics'' tMona is the heroine). And on page 33s we finS this passage;

 Dyspepsia. 30 per cent.
 .'Consumption, 20 per cent.
 insanity and irrational temperaments, 10 per cont.
 "Catarrh, 70 per cent.'
 There is more of this table, the total of the percentages amounting to l23 from which we conclude that many indi- yiduals known to the author must be subject to more than one of the ailments numerated. The scene may lie in the rkansas bottoms or the undrained lands Of Louisiana for all we know.
 Moreover the plan does not seem to have been a success, for on page it we find the two young people auctioninc of their furniture. con page 42o chaper on '"The Separation" begins).

ALABAMA'S NATURAL GAS

Special Dispatch to Manufacturers Rec

Special Dispatch to Manufacturers Rec.
 ord.
 Birmingham. Ala, April IT,
 Another gas well with flow of 2,50o,- GOO to 3NG0,GC0 feet a day has just been brought in by the Providence Oil and Gas company in it's Fayette county field, 65 miles northwest of Birmingham.
 This is the fourth flowing well on the company's property. and gives combined volume of 100000 feet daily. The com pany's contracts cover seven additional wells, which are now being drilled, .he most extreme point of operation being eight miles beyond the present proven field which Is three-quarters of mile wide by one mile long. It is believed by the company that the trend of the gas lead of this particular anticlinal has been established Should the wells now drill ing come in strong. this belief would be substantiated. In that event the Provi- dence company would feel justified in pip ing the gas to Columbus, Miss, Birming- ham and Tuscaloosa. Ala, in which places franchises nave been obtained
 The Providence company owns and con trols about 60,000 acres of oil and gas lands in the Fayette field. The company, capitalized at $1.25o.000, is composed of most substantial and wealthy business men of Birmingham and elsewhere. About s150Oo0 has been spent In developing the field, and there is every confidence that a great oil as well as gas development will ultimately occur there. However, they are proceeding with caution, and will nol undertake to pipe gas out till the field has been determined to be sufficiently exten- sive to give 1t reasonable permanency

Nogi Taken For Tramp

From the IOKlO f1eTdlu.
 General Nogi is famous for the sim
 plicity of his habits, and his personal
 appearance is in no wise calculated to inspire awe and respect if he Is attired in dress of shabby description. as he generally is when bound on pleasure trips The general repaired to Shuzenji last year-end for a sojourn and on New Years day he paid visit to the inn perial detached palace at Atami, where the three young sons of the crown prince were sojourning.
 After being entertained by the princes, the general took his leave and set out for Yugahara. After trudging over the
 mountainous paths he reached Yugahara | in the gray of the evening. When he ar rived at the Hotel Amanoya-the best | establishment in the place-he was much | fatigued, and the evening was unusually | cold Unfortunately the hotel was full, 1 and the maid refused to admit him. The | general tried another reputable looking | hotel but he was again peremptorily re- | fused He tried a. third, but with no | better result. He vainly tried all the re-
 spectable looking hotels of the place un | til he came to small inn called Idzuya or the extreme border of the place, whera
 he at last obtained the consent of the | landlord to remain for the night. The | general was ushered into small. dirty, | cobwebby room, in which he retired to | sleep without grumbling.
 | In the meantime the imperial princes
 a. Chuzenji wished to convey a message | to the general, and telephoned on the same evening to the police station al Ygahara to ascertain the lodging place | oe the general. The chief of police al | once made inquiries. but could not find | out his whereabouts. He returned d
 message to the detached palace that Gen eral Nogi had not come to Yugahara | but was again assured that the genera was certainly there and was ordered tc
 search once more. Policemen were agair | dispatched in all directions in quest oi | the general At last tile chief of the To | cal police was informed by one of his
 emissaries that an ugly old fellow hai taken up his quarters at an inn called Idzuya. The chief knew at once from

Gifts for a Museum

From the New York Sun.
 A large number of new accessions, in cluding paintings by American artists sculpture and Japanese worries has been announced by Dr. Edward Robinson, di- rector of the Metropolitan Museum of Art One of the most important of the new things Is the gift from Mrs. Russell Sage of a large collection of Japanese netsukes and masks, numbering 2546 speci- ments, mostly or ivory, while others are of wood and lacquer, ranging from the seventeenth to the nineteenth century.
 These specimens : in horn, wood and ivory are elaborately carved or inlaid lacouered or enameled, and were used b,, the Japanese as a bob for the cord of tobacco pouch or other objects suspend ed from the belt. The collection was made by A. c. Vroman of Pasadena. Cal II is said to rank with the Franko col lection in the British Museum and others well known in Europe. These curious Japanese worries are now on exhibition in the room of recent accessions.
 l. Next in importance to the Japanese collecton,' says Dr. Robinson, "is tn } addition of seven paintings by American artists acquired by the museum in the last month Among these Is Whistler $ picture of Connie 'Glclrist with a skip ping rope. The Gold Girl gift from George A, Hearn.'
 Other American pictures acquired in- clude two unusual examples by John 8.

PRICE OF YELLOW PINE LUMBER SAME Fulenwider Talks of COndi- tiOns in General in the
 Lumber Market

"The market price for yellow pine lum- Der remains unchanged since you saw me two weeks ago. said Robert Fulenwider president of the Atlantic Lumber com pany today.
 '"The demand is very good. Mills have only small and badly assorted stocks In their sheds and seem loath to part with what they have below the figures pre- vailing for the past 50 days Northern and eastern demands continue reason ably good and 1t begins to look as 1T the poor sawmll operator can look forward to feeding his mules and oxen on corn' meal and hay this winter instead of saw dust. The farmer continues to consume his part of building materials of all kinds and is insisting on buying the best Instead Of the worst as was the case when they were hauling scent cotton 20 miles to market two or three years ago.

The buyers are paying considerably more money for the galvanized than they were paying for the painted, put they ire learn ing rapidly that 1t pays to buy the best. The best way to teach them this lesson is to give them something to buy with. The difference between Scent and 14-cent cotton solves that important problem to the entire satisfaction of all cornerned.
