An AuspicIous season.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
The year 1911 is an suspicious one
for Newark as far as theatres are con-
cerned. There will not only be W new
theatres thai will house dramatic per-
formances, but one that will bring to
Newark the best singers Of the world
The Shubert and Orpheum will be the
dramatic playhouses and the symphony
Auditorium, built by a progressive and
daring Newarker, will make the local
lovers of music acquainted with the
best opera singers. Newark should
show its appreciation of the three new
theatres by supporting them loyalty.
1t can hardly be said now that it is
necessary to go to New York to see a
good play. The good plays will be
seen here as well as in New York. Let
every theatregoer do his duty.

in the audience went to the stars

of them, a young m wearing a

THE MAINE BLOWN UP EXTERNALLY.

NAV HEN the Maine was blown up in Havana harbor the con,
WV viction was instantaneous and universal in the United
States that the explosion was an outside one and that it
was effected by a mine planted against the hull of the ship. That
popular conviction, which forced our government into a war with
Spain, has remained unchanged. A report to the secretary of war
by former Chief Constructor Cappes. of the navy department, who
has inspected the wreck, states in effect that the explosion was
external and, of course, the work of design. And YET, considering
all that has happened, it would have been just as well to have let
the dead past bury its dead.

REFORM MUST BE PAID FOR.

IT Y z in Warren county there is a kick" about the increased cost
of the schools, which has boosted the county rate from
Sc in 1910 to S22 this year. The increase has led taxpayers
to examine the figures of cost of State administration this year
They find that the item of appropriations for the State commits
sioners Office alone for 1911 is $4,000. against $26,250 for State
administration in 1910. 1t is shown that the Legislature of 1911
appropriated more for this purpose than the two preceding Iegis
latures combined. But let the Warren taxpayer not forget that
this is a reform State school administration.

TN IRE drills for some years have been compulsory in the public
Al schools of Newark, and the knowledge of this fact has given
confidence to parents that their children We're reasonably
safe in case of an outbreak of fire in any of the buildings. But the
thousands of pupils in the parochial schools have lacked this pro.
lection. 1t is gratifying to note that, with the cooperation of the
church authorities, the system of fire drills is to be extended as
speedily as possible TO the paroehial institutions.

wonder at Trenton. The commission consists of the Gov

A\ cost Essex county from $4,000 to $125000. being $4,000
more than was spent in previous election years. At an
average of $4,000 for each of the twentyone counties, the total
would be $~l,575,000 for the State. Evidently the sponsors of the
Geran law did not stop to count the cost financially. They Ger
tainly did not reckon on the effect of the act.
