 BEDS, {" THURSDAY AT. JEFFERSON THEATRE.

Twin Beds, the Laugh Festival by Salisbury Field and Margaret Mayo, which Selwyn and company presented for the longest run of the past season in New York, where it has just closed it's run of 32 weeks, will come to the Jef- ferson Thursday and Friday matinee day. -
 Twin Beds, a distinct departure in farces, is as clean as rolliclSing north wind. There is nothing in line or situa- tion which can possibly offend-it is in brief, valuable lesson in the exhiliration of clean laughter and wholesome fun Its lines sparkle with rapier-like wit and surprising slang, and the rich humor of the situations is permitted to develop it. self naturally, without forcing.
 The story of Twin Beds" deals with the felicities and infelicities of three mar ried couples-to say nothing of maid Who is a paragon in 20 ways-n their futile effort to rid themselves of an un- comfortable and trouble-brewing proxim- lty .ln a fashionable apartment house.
 Harry Hawkins is young business man who married for a home'-in addi- tion to being distractedly in love with his charming young wife and who resents in no mistakable manner, the fondness of this little wife for striking up ac- quaintances,- and giving parties for them In particular he objects to fat Italian tenor and his Amazon of wife. who have the apartment above them, whose tenth wedding anniversary the flaw kinses are celebrating the opening of the play, to the acute disgust of Harry This disgust inspires him with clever idea of moving to another part of town Iyn- happily. he follows his inspiration to the dot, and embroils himself in troubles so thick and fast-coming that he only bare ly escapes them in time for the final curtain.

GALLANT DEFENSE
 OF WORK BY ACTRESS
Miss Katherine Daily Who Has Ingeune Role in Twin Beds Talks Interestingly of Her Work-Says It is Pleas
 ure to Make People Laugh

A gallant defense of hard work is the contribs4ion of little Miss Kath- erjne Daly who plays so delectably the role of Blanche Hawkins in the Salisbury Field Margaret Mayo laugh festival, Irwin Beds" which Selwyn & Go. present at the Jefferson theatre Thursday and Friday.
 fondness for work even affects the degree of satisfaction she has in the part .xshe plays-incredible as it seems for one so young and so engaging, and she will have none of them unless they are difficult.
 'I am overjoyed with this part she says raptuously q should be very hard to suit and very ungrateful sort of person if I were not happy in it, for it has everything in it for me-plenty of action and opportunity to wear pretty clothes, nice people to work for and conditions generally quite ideal. But with the sweetly serious expression again-itS not an easy part. It's real ly a difficult one and wearing one. After l have finished a performance l am quite willing to seek a real bed of my own and forget the twin ones on the stage.
 ''But I expect what makes me so taken with the part-the special req son--is that it is difficult. Work is my chief hobby and l have my individual the ories about, it, some of which might not fit in with most other persons ideas. But [ won't inflict them on you or the public except just to say that I think it. ism t. hard work so much that gets one anywhere, but directed work,

Of course, it's good to interest them, too as the serious plays do, but it's such serious old world, and especially new with this cloud of war, that it just does me good to hear the audiences taken out of themselves sufficiently to laugh with sheer amusement as they do.

DESERT BEDOUINS

The desert Bedouins (Arabs) are de- vout Moharnmedans and must be pro- vided with all convenences whereby they can perform daily all their re- ligious rites Their food and manner of preparing it must be according to their religious rites. The matter of sleeping quarters is important too. for where and how they sleep is like their food, matter of religion.
 There are five camels, seven horses six donkeys, or asses and eight goats used in the play. All of these 26 ami malls are from the desert and their health depends on a vigilant regard for the climatic differences between Amer ca and the sand that stretches across Africa.
 The camels. oddly enough. are often less of a problem than the goats and asses, and are easier to satisfy in the matter of food and quarters. But. never theless, this aggregation of live stock is 8 problem of size and consequence to be considered every hour of the day and night by the managers of the Gar den of Allah company.
 In the matter of transporting all this live stock, the gigantic scenes and electrical apparatus five large bag gage cars are required to move from point to point.

 Americans have witnessed plays pre- sented by all French, all German, all British, or all Russian players, and even players of other nationalites- Japanese, Chinese, Italian-but never before have so many. different nation alities been crowded into one organ ization.
 Primarily the locale of the Garden of Allah is Morocco, French posses sion in northern Africa, but its en- virons-the desert. What could be more natural than that French should be the official language of the organ ization in private life. That such is the fact is true In the company are ;-ouno many French people, some of them representing French soldiers, and 1t is true that several of them have been in the army of France, either as regulars or reservists. Several of them have seen service in China during the Boxer revolution. Next come the "hang- CTS on" of the French army and these are recruited from among all classes of people of all nationalities-Britis Italians, Armenians, Arabians, Africans and the like. The Arabs are from Bis kra and are natives of the country it. self. Among these strangers wanders a motley collection of trades and oth- CT vacations is represented

 But none of these quaint characters is more interesting than an occasion al visit to the Arab quarters, where old Mohamet Fl Hani, who sits al day long at the head of his bed, engaged in the manufacture of Macreme lace of mar vicious workmanship. In Morocco Fl Hani was what they call "lace chief" with many skilled workers in his em- ploy. His best market for years has been America. Mohamet El Hani will return to his native land a richer man than any of the thirty odd Arabs who are in the Garden of Allah company with him. He never sleeps in the same room where sleeps Wadrassi, a stalwart youth who boasts of having followed the standards of Raisuli, that bandit of great renown in Algeria. This is prompted by caution-a virtue few Berbers lack.
 Armenians are also represented-in fact, one entire family, consisting of father, mother and three children, are amnog them. The extra epople--the people who form the groups and mohs are engaged locally but are always re cruited from among these national lties, Syrians and negroes predominant

The reason why some towns grow is because there are men of push and energy in them who are not afraid to spend their time and money to boom their town. They erect good build ings, organize stock companies and establish factories, secure railroads, work for public inn provements and use every means in their power to induce people to locate in their city. Wher- ever they go they tell of the ad- vantages of their city, they write about them in every letter, they send circulars and newspapers
