"Cymbeline, will another play next season, says plans to make Hamlet a fighting flesh and blood man, "not merely a speak er of blank verse in measured tones.' "The time of the play is the tenth century," explaing Mr. Faversham. "Men were pretty much barbarians in those days, with good red blood and fiery passions. | want to catch that spirit in the play instead of making it something gloomy and tiresome." ote for anti-suffragists: Gaby Deslys docs not believe in votes for women.' She says woman's sphere is her home, her children and her family cares and interests should be all-absorbing. Whoever would have dreamed she of the pearl neck- lace would have sentiments like those? Of "Hindle Wakes" the play of Stan ey Houghton's which Misp Horniman's p ayers made famous, which was seen in New rork thip week, Alan Dale says: 'the Tiren Busines Man will "think it dread- ful. The Tred Business Women will think it worse. The theatre- ger who cares for something a bit literary will appreciate it. "'Hindle Wakes" is not gay but it is clever and it has some significance ™ In "Art and Opportunity." a com- edy by Harold Chapin, just pro- duced in the Prince of Wales Theatre, London, Marie empest, ¥8 an hnglish critie, impersonates "a little widow introduced inté a ducal family as young Lord Alger- non's flance~--on trial.

The action takes place In a smzll town in the west of Ireland. The personages repre- [sented range from the lord lieuten- iant to the barefooted peasant. Hawtrey bh'mself has described the piece as an Irish "Bunty." His own part is that of the dispensasry doctor, a genial, good natured irishman, who, ia his endeavors to help other people, helps himself. } Charles Frohman 183 to present, "Chains." a play by Elizabeth 'Baker, a London typist. The single idea of this play is that in every great, overcrowded city are clerks, shop girls, people just barely hold- ing down jobs, and always among them are certain rebels who In character, ability and ambition are above their surroundings; only they cannot break awdy, because oue other an unhealthy brother to save. About the neck of each is a chain. The individual is chained to the j family. The sentimentai resp | bilities invented by modern society prohibit the strong from leaving the weak, the ambitious from leav- ing the lazy or the healthy from deserting the unhealthy. We learn from the Winter Garden production, ' "Broadway to Paris," that the road is tropical the entire distance, and Mned, if you don't care what you sdy, with ladies-- ladies who wear next to nothing-- next to less than that. They are a part of the time as fully clothed as was the impetuous and goble minded Godiva, In the concluding scene a ragtime prizefight is given by the comedians and the hundred l'ttle girls of the chorus are present as trainers. Each clothed in full fleshings, plus a sash of striped silk and each carries a bath towel over her shoulder to give added courage to her native modesty, as well as a touch of real'sm to the steam heat- ed nature of the entertainment HE HAD REVENGE, Stage Hand Got Even With Disliked Actress. Many of the small revenges practised on actors by the stagehand who has conceived a dishke for them, for one reason or another--generally ground- less--are nothing greater than petty annoyances, writes Mary Shaw, in the Strand. But sometimes, if he happens to be vicious, these acts may be made very dangerous. hnowing this, the actor--subconsciously--always has the goed will of the stagehand in mind. I recall an incident when | was play- ing with Halen Barry. She was a wo- man of heroic build--six feet tall, and otherwise made on a big scale. She was un exacting and conscientious wo man, and had made herself very um. popular with the stage crew. Ai this time Miss Barry was impersonating a society woman who, to carry out a little intrigue, had put on the uniform of an army ofncer. In one scene it was her business to stalk up and down the stage, and, when sufficiently wrought up, to kick a footstool out of her way. The footstool that she kicked was an upright box with a cover on it. Une night, when | was on the scene with her, | had my back to her and was arranging my hat in the glass. Suddenly 1 feit Lhe most fearful vibra. tion and heard a terrible crash. | swung around, and, to my amazement, saw Miss Barry, disguised as the offi- cer, flat on her back and wriggling dbout mn an attempt to regain the per- pendicular. The audience had gone wild with glee. | was so shocked that I did nothing but stand and stare at the woman. 1 did not know whether or not it was a new piece of business that had been introduced. But I quick- ly realized ome thing--she had fallen and wanted to get up. Her sabre had got underneath her in some way and prevented her rising. | tugged and tugged away at her, for she was very héavy, and, after a very ridiculous tug of war between us, she managed. fo get on her feet. As the play was a comedy there was no great harm done, for | doubt if the audience realized what had really hap- pened. When the curtain fell Miss Barry mlormed me that someone had filled the footstool with lead and that when she gave it a kick the recoil threw her on her back. She realized instantly that she was a victim of stagehand revenge and was filled wilh rage and fury. Wuite as funny as the incident itself was the remark of the stage manager when he came behind. Miss Barry had sent for this bearer of all men's hur- hdens, He must have realized what her complaint would be, for he hurried an, his face beaming, and, betore the furi jous sotress could begin her protest, | gaily cried out: ""I'hat's splendid--fino! { You made a big hit with that new {piece of business! Put it on every night." ---------- Kansas Medicine.

Horses Thrive on the Product-- Arrangement Already in Hand for Establishment of Factories Throughout England. London, December 19.---British chemists are complaining bitterly of .the effect upon their research work which the lack of substantial support is having as compared with the enterprise in this direction shown im Germany. where it is an nounced that $5,000,000 is being ; placed at*the disprsition of chem- ists for experiments in connection with synthetic rubber, which will doubtless ultimately prove of vast benefit to the German nation. The British chemists. however, find some consolation in the fact that experiments in tngland, have resulted in a discovery which, it is said, may revolutionize the sugar refining industry. By a new chemical process the manufacture of sugar from wood and sawdust has become an accom- plished fact. large quantities of the commodity have actually been produced, and it is said that * ar- rangements are in hand for the ct: tablishment of factories throughout England for the exploitation of the process. "Saccaulose" is the term, applied to the new product. The results obtained ara what are called "'calss ed process," in which sawdust is subjected in closed retorts to di- ges¥on with . a weak sulphurous acid solution, and under the pres- sure of about 90 to 100 pounds to the square Inch effective trarsmu- tation takes place. Of the result- ing product 25 per cent. is sugar. The constituent sugar so formed is dextro in part and fermentable to an extent of 80 per cent. The rést is not fermentable, Numerous experiments and de- monstraticns were recently made by the well-known scientist here, A Zimmermann. After dealing with the theorctcal reasams why wood treated in the manner described should be a digestible and useful food, and of especial value to a: country entire'y dependent on the importation of the product, Mr. Zimmermann outlined the experiments carried out on live stock as proof of the actual value of "'sacchulose" ta the farmer and stock breeder. Here are some experiments: Four draught horses were selactad doing ordinary work with others, and, in the hot time of the yar, 1 to lose weight, the usual food ration was altered by deducting four pounds of oats a day from he food selected' for the four and ra- pacing them by four pounds oa "'sacchulos®" molasses compound The animals working in the sam. teams with the selected four, to i 12. which had not been given this food, these experimented upon showed a pet gain in body weight, and work- ed Letter in every way. Increasas | in weight of seventy pounds. thirty | pounds, thirty-five poupds, andi sixty-five posnds were sliown re- spectively. -- | A colt that was in such a weak condition that it could hardly stand was next experimented with, Four important veterinary surgeons, ob- tained after a careful examination, had given independent verdicts that the colt should be destroyed. Then the pew food was given to the ani- mal, first 1% pounds daily, divided into three meals. This was increas- ed to 3% and 4 pounds daily, the quantity of oats being slowly de- creased in the same proportion. Two pounds of chaff also was given dally and hay unlimited. The weight of the animal at the beginning of the six months' feed- ing, was €28 pounds; the final weight, after that period. was $82 pounds, a toial increase of more than 200 'The colt is now in ex- 'cellent condition amd fit for anv work. ¥ The secretary of an important Durham colliery reports that he finds the substitution of two pounds of "sacchulose,' mixed with moloss- es for an equal weight in oats, keeps the pit ponies and horses in a good, hard condition, similar to that when fed entirely on oats and chaff. In the production of milk and butter, a keen exhibitor of dairy produce, after several years' failure to gain any first class recognition at county shows, achieved successes during a period in which he ex- perimented with '"'sacchulose' mixed with oll protein. The manager of one of the largest firms of butchers has made the in- teresting discovery that the new food produced the best bacon and hams. A veterinary surgeon. airer conducting experiments on his own horses, came to the conclusion (hut "sacchulose'"' mixed with molasses was the best sugar food he ever tried, and its flesh-forming propen- sities were most pronounced. i Sn r---- A Misunderstanding. Elihu Hoot, at the chamber of tom merce dinner in New York, said: "There are hundreds of thousands of people outside the great . industrial communities who think the chamber ol commerce a den of tineves, think that the manufacturers of country are no better than a set confidence men. Discussing this regrettable misunder standing ailerward, Mr. Root smiled and sad: "It is a misunderstanding that will come right in the end; but just now, i a rich man ventured to say to a poor man, 'lL believe in putting by something for a rainy day,' the poor man would sneer bitterly, and reply " "Yes, that's why me and my friends lose so many umbrellas."
