Perhaps there is more than mere CO.
incidence in the election of Senator
Beidleman as President pro TEN. of
the Senate and the first Dauphin countian
to be so honored since the office was
held by Judge s. j. NJ. McCarrell. in
whose office Senator Beidleman studied
law. Mr. Beidleman has succeeded his
preceptor to leading place at the
Dauphin county bar, has occupied Judge
McCarrelTs seat in the Senate and now
has followed him as President pro tenn.
Who shall say that in due time the re-
markable sequence shall not be fol-
lowed to its natural conclusion?

very excellent presentation of "Diplo-
macy Wednesday evening by William
Gillette, Blanche Bates and Marie

1t is this class of plays that make
the theater. Clever. clean, artistic to

fault could be found with 1t. Also, il

was not a great money maker for the
theater; there were too many stars in
1t for that. But it is the type of show
that ought to be encouraged. 1t has
everything to commend and nothing
to condemn. which is more than can
be said of many of the plays staged by
New York managers.

THE GARDENER

The gardener does not love to talk,
He makes me keep the gravel walk;
And when he puts his tools away
He locks the door and takes the key.
Away behind the currant row,
Where no one else but cook may go,
Far in the plots, / see him dig,
Old and serious. brown and big.
He digs the flowers, green. red and
blue,
Nor wishes to be spoken to.
He digs the flowers and cuts the hay,
And never seems to want to play.
Silly gardener summer goes,
And winter comes with pinching toes,
When In the garden bare and brown
You must lay your barrow down.
Well now. and while the summer stays,
To profit by these garden days

To play at Indian wars with me-
