made public last night the text of the
note he recently presented to the state
department declaring that 'if the Am

neutrality they will find means to stop
the exclusive expectation OF arms to
one side or at least to use this export
trade as a means to uphold the light
mate trade with Germany, especially
the trade in foodstuffs." The memor-

Pottery Would Pay Expense.
The state commission to the Pana-
ma Pacific International exposition at
Frisco, could pay all the expenses and
more of the North Dakota building
there if they would sell pottery made
at the state university. 1t must be
that DR.. e. j. Babcock has. had manu-
factured a superior article OF pottery,
or the coloring catches the fancy Of
the people, for nearly everyone visit
ing the building wants to buy at least
one piece of pottery. Strange to say,
lit is not always the soft tinted dishes,
bowls, vases, ETC., that they want, but
in many instances 1t is a baking jar
or some other article of pottery that
lis used in the kitchen that they want.
Certain it is that DR.. Babcock's ex-
hibit at Frisco Is waking up the people
there to the great possibilities OF the
North Dakota clay for. commercial
purposes.

the Shaw Play at Walack' S

Bernard Shaw eXCels at explaining
often his ground and lofty tumbllng
on such occasions is the very best
thing he does. The audience at
Wallack's on Wednesday found an eX-
PLANTATION Of "Androcles and the Lion"
prepared by the author tucked away in
the programmes. This is the eXplana-
ton that Mr.. Shaw prepared for the
English performance of the fable
play:
THE version of the old story OF
Androcles and the lion, hich | have
retold in the play, is not hampered by
"A pedantic retention of the details as
given by Aulus Gellius. His Androcles
was called Androclus, and Androclus
was neither a Greek nor a tailor nor
a Christian, but Roman slave who ran
away from the cruelties Of his master
and was later on captured and con-
demned to be devoured by wild beasts
in the arena. But it happened that
during his flight he had taken refuge
in a cave, and into this cave came a
lion who had 4 thorn in his paw which
Androclus extracted 1t was to this
very lion that Androclus was afterward
thrown in the arena, and the lion, in
stead Of eating him, Caressed him. The
story figured in natural histories like
those of ALLAN and was found to please
children. in whose story books it has
appeared ever since. Nobody believes 1t.
though everybody believes much more
improbable stories. II would he inCred-
ible Of some lions, Just as the action
OF Androclus would be incredible OF
some men, But there are lions and
lions just as there are men and men.
The author of the present version has
petted a full grown lion and had his
advances received with much more cor
diality than he could expect from most
st. Bernard dogs, lie COnceives the
lion of Androclus To have been Just
such a fearless and amiable creature,
lie conceives Androclus as having that
fellow feeling for animals which 1t

animals to have imam IL your real
king Of beasts) and which enables some
men to handle bees without being stung
and snakes without being bitten. Given
such pair, there is nothing incredible
in the story except the theatrical CO.
