Mrs. Campbell's engagement at the
Orpheum on Wednesday. matinee and
evening, in Bernard Shaw's "Pygma
lon introduces what may fairly be re-
garded as the height of the theatrical
season, so far as dramatic attractions
are concerned, for Mrs. Patrick Camp
bell ranks among the most brilliant
actresses on the English stage. and
"Pygmalon" is without doubt the most
entertaining play, all around, that Shaw
has evolved from his flashing brain in
the last ten years.
Mrs. Campbell appears as Eliza Doo-
little, the cockney flower girl, ragged,
soiled and vulgar with an accent al
most beyond understanding. A profess
sor of phonetics with a hobby for dia-
lect discovers her and makes her the
subject of an experiment by which in
six months he completely changes her
into a being that as far as manners,
pronunciation and grammar are con-
cerned, will pass muster with the first
ladies of the land, but in so doing has
awakened within her soul and finds
that when the period of experiment is
over he has a problem on his hands
and-Eliza does not go back to the
slums.
Mrs. Campbell's supporting company
includes: j. w. Austin, II. Conway
Wingfield. George Frederick, G.. Gatenby
Bell r. =. Donaldson. Steuart Halliday,
Thomas Robinson, George Walton, T..
Herbert Madeline Meredith, Gwladys
Hopeton, Beatrice Irwin May, Esther

see Kosloff idle. the CZar granted him
to remain in America until the huge

Carmen when in the third act she
slapped him on the face, for in the sec

chorus girl all over the stage in the

was not without revenge. At the close
of the third act, after he had finished
his embrace of Carmen, Don lose

she slipped to the floor in a sitting

doubts in the mind of the audience. No

that the motion picture actions will be

AFRICAN COCOA PoRTERs.
Head Loads and Barrel Rolling Feats
of the Natives.

Unusual and interesting Is the spec.
tacle In the African Gold Coast country
of the transport of cocoa, the bulk OF
the inlandT produce being carried by
porters to the railroad. Sometimes the
roadways as far as the eye can see are
one long line of cocoa bags on the
heads of hundreds Of carriers.
This carrying trade has produced an
extraordinary flow of free labor into
the whole hinterland of the Gold Coast.
At Adawso. a buying station nearly If
teen miles from the rail head, one firm
alone employs I'm the season 5000 car
riers. who cover the distance to the
rail station at Pakro once and frequent
Iy twice a day with 100 pound bag
of cocoa.
Many OF the native farmers within
thirty miles of Acera prefer TO sell
their cocoa at higher price at the port
of embarkation and so have created
the interesting system of barrel roll
ing" In the cocoa season strongly
bound and ponderous casks are filed
with the beans and rolled to the sea-
shore.
Travelling along the somewhat print
tive roads one meets at frequent inter
walls perspiring natives struggling with
the barrel, which, filed with cocoa,
weighs considerably over a quarter Of
a ton. AS a rule, three men roll two
casks, one relieving the other Occa-
sionally the loss, due to accidents. Is
