So great is the desire Of the movie
| film producers OF today to portray with
| exact truth the scenes enacted that an
| offer is being made by a London CON-
pany to pay $50 n day TO a man who
! looks just as King Edward did at the
age of fifty.
The producers are particular, and the
man who Is to draw this salary must be
the image of the dead monarch, and up
to date the offer is still standing The
company, according to dispatches from
London, has received many letters from
men who are sure they are the living
image Of the late King. but it is evident
they are not.
This offer is made to fill the cast of
the production of a movie" play en-
titled queen Victoria, Sixty Years a
Queen" 1t is said that the salary Of
fered for the actor of the Kings role is
in keeping with all the preparations for
the piece.
A film that. 1t is said. will be one of
the biggest things in the movie line
that has been seen IN Washington for
some time will be "Sapho," the gelatine
dramatfzation, as II were of the famous
French novel by Alphonse Daudet. 1t
will be shown at the Empire Theater
Tuesday night.
The many Washington folk who await
eagerly the opening nights of the
movie will take especial interest in this
hlm, because Of the fact that the star
will be Florence Roberts, who was seen
a couple of weeks ago at enc Of the
vaudeville houses.
Miss Roberts talent is a recognized
quantity, and it is said that particular
care and much money has been spent in
producing the film.
Announcement was made vester5av
by the management of the Garden
Theater that II had completed arrange
ments for showing, for the first time
in Washington, the ''Battle Of Gettys-
burg pictures. which have created a
sensation in New York, PHILADELPHIA,
and other cities where they have been
displayed. 1t is probable that the q.
A. R. posts Of Washington win give
theater party at the Garden either |
next Friday or Saturday. Definite an
nouncement regarding this will be
made later.
Owing to the large number of re-
quests received by the Garden man

made for a return engagement of Mrs.

DisinfectInq Ambulances.

The Buffalo hospitals have adopted
an improvement in ambulances which
will probably be copied elsewhere. 1t
is often impossible to take time to pro-
perly disinfect ambulances used for
contagious disease cases. The new
scheme consists in providing separate
steel Innings for the ambulances-one
lining for each class of cases. For in
stance there is a lining for dipktheria,
another for smallpox, a third for
measles, another for scarlet-fever and
another for special cases. When for
instance a scarlet-fever patient Is be-
Ing moved, the special lining for such
cases Is placed In the ambulance. On
the return Of the ambulance the lining
Is taken out and thoroughly disinfected
while another lining Is showed into the
ambulance. In this way there is no
loss of time for. the ambulance

Guesthouses in Asia,

The guesthouse is a real institytion
In Asia Minor. 1t Ia sometimes owned
by an individual, but is usually the
common property of the village. To
this guesthouse, like the travellers
bungalow in India, every traveller has
q right. but as all have the same rights,
one may have more company than he
desires. However, the head man of
the village usually arrange matters
for the foreign traveller, and the ma
tive guest will often courteously make
way for him. In the guesthouse is one
large room, in one part of which our
horses MUNICH their hay, with the driv-
ers lying beside them, while in the 9TH
er part we spread our rugs and set up
our beds and unlimber our cooking ap-
paratus. Some guesthouses have two
rooms connected by a wide opening,
without a door, in one of which the
animals and animal drivers sleep and
In the other the pampered guests from

y Berlin Prohibits Horse Cab,

While in most of the large cities oil
civilized countries the taxicab reigns
practically supreme, Berlin is the first
metropolis to pass law prohibiting
horse-drawn cabs from carrying fares
within its Jurisdiction. Such an ordi.
nance was put In force recently and
the few remaining Cables were given
notice of the death of their trade. Pro.
vision was made for the instructing OF
the cabmen as chauffeurs, and $50
was given as compensation for their
loss of trade. This gives the taxicah
drivers a monopoly, but, as the city
authorities have stringent regulations
covering tho tolls and other matters,
NO trouble Is expected from that
source. Co,incident with this news
comes the Information from London
that the cab situation is 80 bad there
that q society has been formed for
thesreiief Of INDECENT cab drivers who
are NOW unable to reap a living owing
10 the inroads tsxicabs have made on
their fares.

Electricity Used as Food.

Professor Bergonie of Paris has ad
vanced the theory that electricity can
be made to take the place of food in
sustaining life. His idea is that the
essential purpose of food is to supply
the body with internal warmth. He
claims to have proved that low tension
high frequency currents of electricity
can be passed through a man in such
a manner as to produce the required
energy warmth Of maintained life
The great thing to guard against is
the production of a temperature high
enough to be fatal. According to Pro.
lessor Bergonie, electric food" 10
much superior to vegetables and meat,
inasmuch as 1t imposes no work on
the digestive organs, the food being
directly absorbed by the nerves. Thus
Is avoided, the savant asserts, the or.
binary fatiguing, wearying process of
intestinal combustion which is SO ex.
hausting to invalids or to patients In
a weakened state. Zone dose of cleo
trio food" we are told, twill do a
man as much good as three solid meals
of ordinary food. More than that, elec-
trio food actually increases the pa
tents weight"

Eoston's Favorite Dish.

Mayor Fitzgerald of Boston has ad
vised his fellow Americans to eat
beans instead of meat in these days
Of high prices for the products of the
packinghouses. He has issued an of.
fetal municipal recipe for Boston
baked beans.
They must be cooked, he says, with
fat pork, molasses, mustard and other
seasoning materials, in pot of porous
earthenware. His directions are min.
ute. Presumably they comply in every
detail with the exactions of the most
fastidious bean eaters to be found In
Boston.
The world will be grateful for this
disclosure. of the means by which Bos.
ton became center of sweetness and
light. Beans contain large amount
Of proteid matter and are favored by
vegetarians as substitute for meat at
all times.

ton Of Circulated Story Con-
corning the Pope.

An extraordinary story about Plus
*. was recently told by preacher in
one OF the churches at Innsbruck He
said that while the pope was engaged
IN prayer he fell into an ecstasy and
rose several feet in the air. Cases of
aevitation-the technical word for the
phenomenon-are, of course, recorded
in the lives of many of the saints. If
a writer In "Das Neue Jahrhundert,'
a Journal Of markedly anti-papal ten
denotes, is to be believed, the tale has
a very simple explanation. Plus X,
1t appears, was working in his study,
and happened to require book from
o shelf which was beyond his reach.
He climbed on chair to get 1t. A
servant in an ante-room, from motives
of curiosity, not perhaps unmixed
with piety, happened to look through
the keyhole to see what the pope did
when he was alone. To his amaze
ment he saw the white-robed figure OF
the pontiff floating a couple of feet
above the floor. The fact was that
between him and Plus X. stood desk
which hid the chair on which the pope
was standing. Il never occurred to
the servant that SO great a person as
the pope would resort to so simple an
expedient to get book. Obviously he
would summon Q cardinal or a cham
berlain to his aid. Hence he jumped
to the conclusion that he was wit
