The other day I wrote a play;
 thought it pretty good. The plot was complicated, yet quite
 easily understood The dialogue was rather neat and -teemed with quiet fun, And the part of James, the hero, was
 the best I've ever done. But the manager said; No, my boy,
 this stuff's no good to me; This isn't the sort of drama that the
 public wants to see; It hasn't got a chance on earth, be-
 lieve me not a scrap, Why, hang it all, your hero is a
 decent sort of chap. I've just gone through the whole four
 acts again, a second time,l And, as far as I can see, he( don't

Dameron and Mr William G Mills. The most noteworthy thing about Buffalo Bilfs' Wild West Show now at Madison Square Garden, New York, Is that the famous old Indian fighter is growing old. There are a few of boyhood'S heroes whom one cannot picture as ever being anything but the halOed idols blessed with eternal youth, and surely good old Buffalo Bill is one of these. So it comes as rather shock to hear that this grand old man no longer prances around the tanbark on his fiery steed, destroying glass balls in countless number from every impossible angle and rescuing that famous old stage coach from the horde of bloodthirsty Indians at least twice each day. Buff falo Bills exhibitions of horseman- ship are things of day that is gone. Rheumatism has laid it's clammy hand on him and the old gentleman makes his entrance in a buggy driving.
 And this is not the only heart break to the boy that used to be and still is. The feature" attraction
 
 devil bit of horsemanship, no blood curdling Indiana atrocity, no hair raising bit of marksmanship, but a game of auto polo. According to the various newspaper reports auto polo as offered by Colonel Cody in sub stitution of his own deeds of prow- ess, is the most thrilling and exciting game that has yet been submitted to jaded public. it lasts fifteen min uteS and has fifteen thousand thrills; and still the small boy is not satiS- fled. He cries for gore and maintains he can see an auto accident on any avenue any day in the week and re- marks that if there is anything west ern or wooly-eXcept thte waste in the tool box-about an automobile he has got to be shown.
 Who is to be the next impressario of the Chicago Philadelphia Grand Opera Co? Andreas Dippel, the man who achieved the impossible and gave Chicago not only artistic but finan- cially successful and gained for it a natural reputation in many ways not even second to the Metro politan Opera Co.,, has resigned for
 reasons which have not been formally stated.
 There are rumors of disruptiOnS and disagreements as to matters of policy, the directors say there was and is no trouble of any kind and MT. Dippel infers that he was so happy in his management he could not stand it any longer. Be that as it may-as our friend George Pansy Burns Monroe would say-Mr. Dippel fine young time finding anyone who will even approach this brilliant man. MT.

Will the "Mikado'' ever die? We think not It is the one great un- ageable, ever fragrant and delightful comic opera of all time. Like 'Divor- cons it never grows old and each new revival brings to light some al most undiscovered feature that is joy and delight.
 It has been revived again at the Casino where it scored such a sen sational success when it was present. ed there with FritZi Scheff and Christie Macdonald only three sea sons ago. Just as the sweet and winsome Pitt Sing of Miss Mac Donald swept all before it and left Miss Scheff and other grand opera stars unnoticed and forgotten in that revival, so this time MT De Wolf Hopper as "Ko Ko" the Lord High EXecutiOner. has gathered to himself the greatest hOnors he has attained in long and distinguished career The beauty of the Mikado is the wonderful possibilities in the various roles, any and all of them can be made to stand out like cameOs.

 into comic opera? No lyric of the last twenty-five years has a deeper pathos than this song of the spinster ''Katisha' whose left shoulder blade people came miles to see" It is not alone the brilliancy of Gilbert's book that has made it a play of eternal youth, for Sir Arthur Sul- HVdn music IS surely not surpassed in any latter day score.

Commissioner David A. Gates
is optimistic toward the future
finances Of the state. He be-
lleves that the increased reven-
ues to be derived from increas-
ed assessments and other sour
ces, will not only take care of
the increased demands made up-
on the state, bat will wipe out
the deficit in a few years, and
put the state once more upon a
sound basis the yeer round.
He calls attention to the fact
that in twelve years the assess
ments Of the state have in
creased from S225,267,681 to
S427 ,468,099. The increase in
four years has been S47,OOO,OOO.
He estimates that the revenues
derived from the increased as
sessments, from the insurance
taxes, and from the franchise
tax for the year ending July
10, 1914, will aggregate about
$366,00O in excess of the amount
of taxes collected this year. The
present deficit is about $780,

Marked Money Held Suspect.

Little Rock, May 20.-When
public officials of Kensett, White
county, on April 26 learned that
a stranger Of suspicious appear
ance had been seen in town,
they took the precaution to
mark pieces of money which
they locked up in their safes.
That night the postoffice was
broken into and robbed. A half
dollar which Postmaster Pack
ard says his daughter marked
and which Sheriff L. J. Steward
of White county says he found
in the pocket Of C. S. Carter IS
the strongest piece of evidence
against Carter, whom Deputy
United States Commissioner W.
S. Allen yesterday bound over to
await the action of the United
States grand jury.
At Carriers preliminary exam
ination yesterday afternoon,
Postmaster Packard told of the
robbery of the Kensett postof-
fee and of the new Sherlock
Holmes device to which he and
other public officials of Kensett
resorted after they had been
told of the appearance OF the
suspicious stranger. He SAID
that IL or Is pieces Of silver had
thus been marked and locked up
in safes in variousplaces in Ken
sett. Officers produced the sill
yer half-dollar which Sheriff
Steward has testified he found
in Carriers pockets when he ar
rested the man in Searcy a lew
days after the robbery. Post
master Packard declared it was
one of the coins his daughter
had marked and left in the post
Office safe before she locked 1t

berry.

Civic Improvement League.

At the meeting of the Civic
League Wednesday afternoon,
greater sanitation for Newport
was again discussed. There is
imperative need for every pre-
caution being taken to prevent
the spread of typhoid fever
germs. The League recon-
mendS that immediate atten-
ton be given to the cleaning of
all open bitches, and that all
citizens keep up a constant war
fare against conditions that in
any wise tend toward the spread
of disease.
The fly being an active agent
in the carrying Of germs, an eff
fort to eXterminate this pest
should constantly engage the at
tention Of every body.
Again, let US take note of the
fact that the time for the dis
figuring of our town by the
growth of unsightly weeds has
come. The question now is, will
the property owners and the 9th
er people who could assist in de-
stroying the weeds, let them take
their own course, or will they
get busy, and by the exercise of
a little energy and determine
ton keep the weeds cut?
