The attention Of American playgoers has been so completely diverted by our writers on stage topies in behalf of our recent impOrtauons from the art Centers of Europe, that we have lost sight of the many interesting directors already established as leaders in the new movement having for its object the improvement of stage productions.
 Francis Powell. as an Illustration, a native director. has already won dis tinCtion for his original and artistic productions and the same critics now engaged in bemoaning our lack Of tal- ent have already recognized the efforts of Mir. Powell and other directors In point of fact before either the Rein EardL the Craig, or more lately. the Barker school. was Illustrated, Mir. Powell anticipated them in many points. notably In lighting and sim phcity of settings, and the critics Of the East as well as the West paid proper tribute to his skill and artistic dis cerumenL
 There have been no more interesting productions in recent years than those directed by MT. Powell at Harvard and the University of Wisconsin, which are his late achievements His practical training was derived from his eight years association with E IT, Sothern and later the Sothern- -Marlowe com binauon, and Madame Ala Nazimova when lndl eIollt dFLlSte was engaged In presenting the masterpieces of lbsen. It is perhaps as well that at this time, when there is a strong and neces- sary propaganda for America First" that we should look around and ob- serve if after all. we have not our selves been conspicuous In the devel- opment of the new tagecraft" Our records of production would seem to prove that we are not far behind, if we may not even claim to be abreast of European leaders And our pro- duccrs. such as MT.

He Saw the Battle.

There were no war correspondents In
Wellington's time, but that his attitude
toward such would have been friendly
may be judged by Il story told by Lady
Doronthy Nevill.
At Waterloo the duke noticed little
man in plain clothes, mounted on a
sturdy cob, who rode hither and thither
in the thick of the fight. He had him
brought to him to demand his business.
whereupon the man explained that he
was travelling for n Birmingham button
maker and, CHANGING to be In Brussels
and never having seen battle, he was
taking the opportunity Of seeing this
one. Wellington not only allowed him
to continue his observations, but pres
emily trusted him with dispatch for
one Of his generals in the firing line.
The safe delivery of the message was
rewarded, in more peaceful times, by a
comfortable government appointment.

Lunar Xsastatien.

Professor Pickering Of the Harvard
astronomical observatory declares that
there is nothing less true than that the
moon is without air, water or vegeta-
ton. There are certain large lunar
areas that darken toward lunar noon
and fade out toward lunar. sunset.
They correspond In some degree to the
so called Marian seas, and Professor
Pickering uses the term fields" to de-
scribe these plains or slopes, which he
believes to be covered with vegetation.
He is convinced tint the dark fields to
be seen during the lunar summer do
not owe their blackness to shadow, for
you can see them ut full moon when
shadows are absolutely invisible. The
blue-black color Of the fields and ca
mails, he argues, can therefore be owing
only to q discoloration Of the surface
that comes alike on slopes and levels
In the lunar summer, and that is invis:
ible In the spring and autumn. We
know of no mineral that acts In that
manner, and the only possible expla-
nation seems to be that it is the result
Of a covering Of vegetation.-Youth's
Companion.

a Stonehenae Legend.

Friar's Heel is the name given to
large stone ut Stonehenge, England.
An interesting tale surrounds the plac-
ing Of this stone in It's present up
right position. 1t is related that Geof-
frey Of Monmouth said that the devil
bought some stones of an old woman
in Ireland. wrapped them up In withies
and took them to Salisbury plain. Be
fore he got to Mount ANDRE the withies
broke and one of the stones fell into
the Avon: The rest were carried to the
plain. After the hend had fixed them
in the ground he cried out, mo man
will ever find out how these stones
came here" 4 friar replied, THAT'S
more than thee can tell whereupon
the fiend threw one Of the stones at
him and struck him on the heel The
stone stuck IN the ground and Is said
to remain there to the present hour.

wh..r and the W5rFd.

The history Of the evolution OF LOCO
motion as wen as an inflnity OF other
studies Of the keenest interest could
all be centered in the wheel.
Without wheels We should have no
watches, no steering at sea. We should
be unable to utilize the waterfalls as
motor force, nor should We have hun
dreds of other things Of the utmost at
traction and utility.
All our modern civilization has come
to US on wheels. All we know about
other countries, all the commerce we
have established throughout the world
and our means Of wealth We owe to
the wheel 1t is difficult to imagine
what the world would come to If sud
denly all wheels vanished from our
midst. No war, no famine, no revolu'
ton, could be one-hundredth part as
effectual in putting US back centuries
rs the lack of wheels.
The romance of wheels has gone,
never to return again. Wheels are
now looked upon merely as accesso-
ries, whirling indifferently, faster and
faster, but practically ignored.

The Smokers Paradise.

Mexico may be called the smokers
paradise. There Is plenty Of good,
cheap tobacco In that country, where
the leaf grows freely. Furthermore,
no tax is levied upon 1t. One may buy
in Mexico cigar, every bit as good rs
the average ten cent brand in this
country, for a sum equivalent to two
and a half cents Of our money. Ciga-
rettes are cheap in proportion. To pro-
tect the domestic article Mexico levies
a prohibitIve tax upon imported to-
bacco, so that no Mexican thinks Of
buying an American cigar. The labor
ing classes are able to buy two boxes
Of cigarettes, containing ten each, for
two and half cents In our money.
The tobacco in these is the sun dried
natural leaf and of coarse grade, with
coarse paper wrappings. The market
is abundantly supplied also with olga
rettes Of high grade tobacco in the best
paper wrappings. For the most part
the Mexican takes his tobacco in the
form of cigarettes.-New York Tribune.
