The Queen Of the Moulin Rouge.
That much talked Of musical COM
edy, "The Queen of the Moulin Rouge
will be the attraction at the Metro
politan on Saturday for both matinee
and night. The production is under
the management of Samuel E. Rork
and GENES here direct from year
run in New York, six months run in
Chicago, q months run in Boston
and a two months run in Philadel-
phia. The book is by Paul NJ Potter
with music by John T. Hall, and
lyrics by Vincent Bryan, a trio OF
men who have each won distinction
in their respective lines. The book
treats Of night life in Paris, exactly
as 1t exists, which affords an excel
lent opportunity for sumptuous stage
settings, novel chorus and ballot fea-
lures and an, amazing array of su-
perb costumes. -
Havana.
Shubert's production Of Havana. an
entertaining combination OF music
movement and fun, will be shown at
the Metropolitan theatre next Mon
day.
The music of the play is among the
most delightful ever sent to this side
from England, being classed as even
better than the score OF "Elorodora.' >
Mr.. Powers, Of course, is the prin-
cipal comedy element and he is seen
better in Havana" than in times
past. In Havana" he plays the role
of Samuel Nix, bos'un Of the yacht
Wasp. He wears a red wig, has the
same shrill falsetto voice, funny
dances and the quick side remarks
in the apt delivery of which he seeme
to be an especial master. Being In
comic opera land, Nix, Of course, sis
plunged into all sorts of trouble
First Ct all, he is endeavoring to es-
cape a deserted wife and runs into
a hornets nest in the form of a band
of Cuban revolutionists. The police
arrest Nix and are about to put him
to death, when his wife comes for
ward to claim his life. During a
brief bit Of dialogue, one of the "hel-
10" girls asks the bos'un: "How
many men work of your ship?'
About half of them," he replies. Al
another time the sailor declares
"You are as mean as the man who
was deaf and never told his barber

NEW INDUSTRIAL METHODS.

The preparations being made by a
large Pennsylvania coal company to
build an enormous power plant at
the mouth of its mines for the pur-
pose Of converting the coal into cleo
tricity and transmitting the current
over high-tension lines to towns and
cities miles away will undoubtedly
be watched with interest by many al
lied industries. No doubt the plan
is altogether feasible, since It is not
to be supposed that an investment of
more than $10,00o,000 would be con-
templated unless the scheme had
been passed upon favorably by those
qualified to render, expert advice.
Primarily. the proposed new meth
cd Of operation is expected to cut
down the expense Of transportation,
in which also there IL no little waste.
Instead Of the comparatively crude
system Of hauling the coal for miles,
later to be utilized as heat. light and
power, the energy Of the carbon will
be transformed into Immediately
available form and be sent as a fin
ished product, instead az of raw ma
terial. to its destination. There is
also an immense saving in view
through the use Of millions of tons
Of culm. dust and slack, which now
largely goes to waste. despite the
growth Of late in the briquette in
dustry, which has for it's object the
converting Of this material into q
product Of economic value.
The whole project is in line with
modern business methods. which
look upon no feature Of conservation
and reduction Of expense as too trif-
ling for serious consideration. In the
management Of great Industrial en-.
terprises, as in the more unimportant
transactions Of life. it is the little
things that count. In no one particu.
lar Is there greater opportunity fol
improvement in business methods
than that offered right at the point OF
original production. Hence the in.
creased tendency toward centraliza.
ton and absorption, until it has come
to pass that many Of the subordinate
or supplementary industries have
been completely eliminated.
t In no other form is energy sc
readily capable of being utilized with
