says Mr.. Parsons. and in this hedge
was an enormous hornets nest. l had
my eye on it for a long time, but was
too busy to take it in hand. One rainy
day summer before last l fixed up a
/ rake with a lot of paper and rags
soaked in gasoline, and proceeded to
burn the hornets out.
What happens when i return last
summer?
Il meet my Nemesis. I went down to
the hedge one morning to look around.
when along sails a hornet. one of the
hornets l thought I recalled distinctly
as having burned the summer before
He sailed around me twice, took care
full peep, swooped down gently. and
then planted a red-hot hornets kiss
right on the top of my head!

BEARDED LIKE THE PARD.-Ex-
cept for a natural fairness of skin and
eyes that are unusually soft and clear
for man, Julian Eltinge has no initial
advantages over the general run of men
when it comes to preparing for feminine
Interpretation. Off the stage there is
nothing feminine about him. The fact
that he is inclined to take on weight
forces him to take regular exercise and
this results in an athletic hardness Of
body which is far from feminine.
But the worst difficulty Mr.. Eltinge has
to deal with is black beard, which Is
unusually heavy and grows rapidly. 1t
has to be shaved once a day and then
just before the performance. This beard
came near getting him into trouble with
a Partisan manager several Years ago
Solely on the strength of his photo
graphs Mr.. Eltinge had been engaged for
the Marigny, Paris. For six weeks be-
fore his appearance at that famous music
hall. he had been enjoying a vacation in
weight through idleness. but he had also
allowed his mustache to grow.
When he appeared at the theater one
afternoon and announced himself as Elt-
inge, Bornay. the managing director,
greeted him with an incredulous smile.
rs this your photograph" asked Bor-
nay. showing one of Eltinge in skirts.
Certainly" replied Eltinge.
when was 1t taken?"
"Only recently" asserted the American.
"Why. 1t looks to me like a fake" re-
ported the manager.
Bornay agreed, however, to allow the
rehearsal to proceed with the orchestra,
which the actor did in his street clothes.
also singing with his natural voice. Bor-
nay watched him intently "Swindle,' he
muttered under his breath.
But he awaited the evening perform
ance. and when Eltinge appeared closely
shaven and clad in feminine costume and
everybody in the house was amazed and
delighted smile crept over the face OF
the French manager. still inclined to
doubt the evidence of his senses. and he
was heard to remark something not often
heard in French society.

BEIASCO

The play selected by Miss Marie Tenn
pest for tomorrow night at the Belasco
Theater. Mary Goes First" is the lat
est addition to the repertoire which
she and her all-star English company
will present during this her farewell
tour of the United States.
Mary Goes First" was specially writ
ten for Miss Tempest by Sir Henry Ar
thur Jones. Its theme is one in the
elaboration of which the author is a
past master. Miss Tempest is admira
bly, adapted to the role of Mary Wi
chello.
The anomalous social position of the
new-made knight and his lady" is
always humorous spectacle when
those worthless happen, as sometimes
saving sense of the fitness of things.
And when the lady" insists upon as
serting what she considers the social
rights of her elevated station it is a
matter for the mirth oSgods and men.
First" and such the role which has
fallen to Marie Tempest. W. Graham
| Browne. who is said to be the most
popular leading man in London. plays
the part of Felix Galpin, at whose
| house all the trouble takes place. Miss
! Kate Serjeantson, 1.-The finest grande
dame on the London stage" hides her
elegance under the mask of vulgarity
required by the character of Lady
Bodsworth.
Mary Goes First" will be repeated
Tuesday. Friday and Saturday nights.
and the Wednesday and Saturday matt
nees. The remaining two nights of
the week. Wednesday and Thurs
day. will be devoted to revival of
Miss Tempest's famous success. "The
| Marriage of Kitty" in which some
years ago the English comedienne cre-
ated the original Kitty Silverton. Miss
Tempest will play the part of the dash
| ing. penniless Kitty, and w. Graham
| Browne will be the Sir Reginald Bel
size. doomed not to marry a widow nor
| a Peruvian, and who, thanks to the
astute Kittys Vaccinations, did neith-
er. Miss Kate Serjeantson will be the
hysterical Peruvian widow, and Mr..

Similar to New York.

That is now in a general way the
situation in New York and other large
centres of finance, and to a lesser de-
gree it appears to be true here. In
many cases the demand for money
just now is not equal to the supply,
and the result is that on such loans
as are made the interest rate is in
clined to sag. 1t follows, as a matter
of course, that under such conditions
light borrowing and easier rates
the banks are not earning and won't
earn as much as they would if depos-
its were large, loans heavy and rates
high. Like many other things, money
is a commodity. 1t is worth, in COM
mercial use, just what it will bring,
and no more. When the available sup
ply for business purposes exceeds the
current demand, the loaning rate
must, of necessity, decline, and the
more it drops the greater is the
shrinkage in the banks profits. 1t,
of course, doesn't follow that when
the rates are high the profits are
great That is not always the case.
In some instances at such times the
banks themselves are obliged to bor-
row in order to accommodate their
customers, and in such cases the mar
gin of profit between the rates that
the loaning institutions pay and those
which they receive is SO small as ~
be almost negligible.
Just at this time, however, that is
not the situation. The banks, with
only few exceptions, have plenty of
money. In New York 1t Is almost a
drug in the market, with a resultant
decline in the loaning rates, and here
those conditions, though modified, are
in evidence. That fact means that
the banks are in a remarkably sound
condition. 1t also means, however,
that their present earnings and their
outlook are not so large or so bright
as they would be under other condi-
lions.
What the present situation and the
immediate banking outlook are due
to is largely a matter of conjecture.
1t seems to be generally conceded,
however, that it is to be attributed to
the tariff question more than to any
other one thing. With the new tariff
law in it's infancy, and with the bust
ness world all but submerged in a sea
of doubt concerning the ramifications
and general effect of the act, there
appears to be a settled disposition in
manufacturing circles to make haste
slowly. That is particularly true of
the railroads. With the important rate
question pending. these great enter
