SEE "FRECKLES" TONIGHT.
A Great Play at the Colonial Theatre
Novel Dramalized.

Ii is but 3 few years ago that Gene
Stratton-P Porter gave to the world
ssFreckles. 1t proved ticker to
the palate of modern fiction readers
with the result that more than q mill
lion have been delighted with its
quaint story of the folks OF the Linn
berlost Swamp country of Indiana.
There have been many stories,
strong in all intrinsic points which 60
to make up an absorbing story. but
they are of no value to the stagt -
the action is lacking Freckles, how
ever. is the reverse. 1t is stronger as
a play than il was a novel. The New
York producer, G. Delamater, has,
with considerable trouble, secured all
the rights of ''Freckles' for the
stage. He knows the value of a story
from the standpoint of a stage pro
duction,' and he was quick to see the
possibilities of Mrs. Porter's tale Of
'The Limberlost.
He secured the brilliant dramatist
Neil Twomey, the author of several
successful plays, among them "Har-
rington Reynolds, " THE Angelus"
TO dramatize "Freckles" and it will
come t, the Colonial Theatre to-
night. The dramatst has followed
the text of the story in most
faithful manner, and every one of
the now familiar characters, "Freck-
les. - 1.-The Swamp Angel, Nc
Lean. " MRS. Duncan, tWissner;"
BLACK jack" and all the rest, will
be in the play. living, breathing
characters.
Mr.. Delamater has given the play a
magnificent scenic investiture and
has secured a strong cast of players,
in word it will be up to the regu-
lar Delamater calibre. From the
standpoint that the play is stronger
than thestory. it is safe to say that
it will be vastly popular. In the
short time it was proddced last sea-
son it proved triumph from a stage
point of view, aud it is undoubtedly
destined to be one of the most sub
stantial successes of the decade.

TO RESTORE OLD PORTRAITS.
Some Of Those at State House Are
Priceless in Value.

1t is the intent and purpose Of Gov
ernor Goldsborough tc have the old
portraits of the Governors, and other
distinguished men in the Executive
Chamber, restored, if possible.
Governor Goldsborough values these
links in the history of The past and
desires their preservation for poster
ity. these portraits, some of them,
are very old, and time has caused the
canvas to stretch in many instances,
and to crack in some portraits, aud
in others the colors are fading.
The Governor has made inquiries
concerning the restoration of these
portraits, and recently a Boston con-
noisseur came here to inspect them.
One of the artists who inspected the
portraits said those of the three
Peales are worth $40, 600. and that of
Frederick, the Sixth Lord Baltimore,
is priceless in value.
Governor Goldsborough is an ad-
mirer of the antique. Since his ad-
ministration he has made gre at
changes in the Executive Chamber,
and it is now much more attractive,
although not mp 90 the Governor s
standard of good taste. His Excel
lency intends to have the furnishings
in keeping with the grand old colonial
building, and desires to substitute
antique for the modern furniture.
The Governor hopes, also, to have
hardwood floor and a rug instead of
the velvet carpet now covering the
entire spacious chamber which serves
as the Governors official domain.
He deplores the "aunex" to the grand
old State House, and be is firm be-
lever that all of the business of the
State Executive should be transacted
here in Annapolis, and there should
be no Office in Baltimore.
The Governor further believes
that the time is not far distant when
all Offices perta ing to State business
will be located here at the State s
capital.

Remove the manure at least twice a

Every time the stalls are cleaned and

If flies begin TO breed in stored M.
nure they may be killed by thoroughly
spraying it with kerosene or paris

ter to wash the oil or poison well in.
The objection to the use Of kerosene
is that it ruins the manure for fertiliz
ing purposes. A solution of iron sui
phate zone pound TO gallon). applied
at the rate of one gallon a day in q
stable where one horse is kept. will
kill all the maggots. 1t costs about 81
per 100 pounds, so that the cost of
keeping flies from breeding in a one
horse stable is about 1 cent a day.
1t is well TO abolish old fashioned
outhouses where possible. Where this
cannot be done a liberal amount of
lime should be used, applied in sman
amounts daily. Chloride OF lime is
better than slaked lime. but slaked
lime is better than none at all.
Garbage cans should be thoroughly
cleaned after emptying. and the con
tents should be sprinkIed with crude
