JAPAN's FlREMEN.

AS display of low comedy talent of
acrobatic skill and of lung capacity the
review of the Toxic fire brigades al
Hibiya park may have had a certain
degree of interest, but as a demon
stration of practical efficiency I'm deal
ing with what the Japanese translator
loves to designate "conAagrationsp it
was unutterably farclcal.
After witnessing such a lamentable
display of inepitude one could only
marvel that the capital has hitherto
escaped total destruction or that the
ravages to which Osaka was subjected
last year were restricted TO some TWEEN
" thousand houses.
1t is true that the metropolitan fire
companies represent great advance
upon what they were during pre- eiji
days, when the greatest solicitude Of
the members of the "hl-keshi-gumi"
was devoted not To the task of extin-
gushing the flames, but rather to that
Of preserving from incineration the
little efIlgy of god or patron saint,
which every company unfailingly car
rled with it on these expeditions for
good luck. ifN
Old residents bear witness TO the vo-
clferous energy and enthusiasm with
which the firemen fulfilled this self
appointed task, while the fire in it's
turn merrily discharged it's mission of
cutting everything innammable within
an accessible area. If. however, in the
end the firemen escaped in withdraw
ing with their little wooden god still
intact they were immensely pleased
with themselves and were satisfied that
society at large could have no ground
for demanding anything more than
this.
Cool and capable in war; the Japa-
nese despite centuries of familiarity,
appear to lose their heads when fire
starts.
Confusion reigns supreme. Con-
nected with each fire station are large
numbers of what may be termed aux
iliaries, who have really nothing to do
with the actual task Of extinguishing
the flames. but whose duties consist in
appearing on the scene at the earliest
possible moment armed with lanterns
and in thereafter helping to remove
goods and chattels from the buildings

AT THE
THEATERS
N. c. M. SHOW is
FINE ATTRACTION
MINING SCHOOL STUDENTS PRE-
SENT AN TOBERo" AT MAR
QUETTE. HERE ION
SATURDAY NIGHT.

Concerning '1n Tobero," to be pre-
scented by students of the College Of
Mines. at the Calumet theatre next
Saturday evening, the Marquette Min
ing Journal says:
No apology need be offered because
I'm Tobero" happened to be presented
in Marquette by an amateur company
last night. Not many professional
companies deserve or receive a more
enthusiastic reception than was ac-
corded to the dramatic stars of the
Michigan College of Mines last even
ing. The show was good from start
to finish. and the large audience in at
tendance will long remember "In To-
bero."
The mining school boys have spared
no time or expense to make their first
dramatic production one worthy Of
their college. 1t is staged with special
scenery for all three acts. the cos
tunes were made especially for the
production, and the singing and dane
ing numbers have been rehearsed until
they go with professional precision and
smoothness. The whole company
scored heavily with Marquette people
last night and c. +. Schaber and II.
G. Kroeger, who took the leading wom-
ems parts, simply took the audience by
storm. There was no suggestion OF
burlesque about the show, as had been
anticipated by many, it being a first
class musical comedy, with bewitching
comedians, etc, and every part was
taken by mining school student.
'In Tobero" was produced and in all
its effects was directed by Mr.. Schaber
who took the part of a dancing girl.
He made up excellently as a girl and
his ballet dancing was revelation.
Mr.. Kroeger was cast i'm the part of a
Bostonese school teacher, and he, too,
handled the role i'm a manner that
might well be the envy of many a pro-
fessional actress. 1t was he-beg
pardon, Atlene- who wore the sensa-
tlonal harem skirt, which had been so
much advertised. The skirt was all
that it was cracked up to be, too.
One of the most pleasing features
of "In Tobero" is the singing, both the
solos and choruses. The heaviest solo
parts are taken by e. II. Richards as
Maxmilio. the leader of the revolution
lists; Il. IL. Stillwill, as the bandit chief,
and f. III. Gould as Harold Kellar,
abOut whose adventures the Mot re-
velves. All are beautiful singers and
they are supported by a musical and
splendidly drilled chorus. The play
closed with the singing of the new NJ.
C. NJ. song, written by Mr.. Schaber.
which was a most fitting climax for the
three hours of delightful entertain
ment. The boys carry their own or
chestra, of which John NJ. Longyear,
Jr., is the leader. and the excellent
work of the orchestra added much to
the success of the production.
