P.. has established “The Little Country Theater.” with the aim of stimulating an interest in wholesome drama ami original entertainment among people living in the open country and villages. The Little Country Theater is a large playhouse put under a reducing glass. It is just the size of an average country town hall, having a seating ca pacity of two hundred. The stage is SO feet in width. 20 feet in depth, with a proscenium opening of 10 feet in height, and 15 feet in width. There no boxes nor balconies. In the audi torium proper the decorations are plain and simple. The color scheme is green and gold, the gold predominat ing. Three beams finished in golden oak cross the mansard ceiling, the beams projecting down several feet on each side wall, from which frosted light bowls and globes are suspended by brass log chains, the indirect light ing giving a soft ami subdued tone to the whole theater. The eight largo windows are Hung with tasty green draperies. The curtain is a tree shade green velour. The birch-stained seats are broad and not crowded together. The scenery is painted in plain colors. It has a certain realism about it. The doors are wooden doors, the windows have real glass in them. Simplicity London Social Practices Are Constantly Changing—Ball Etiquette is Amusing. “Ask and Be Asked/' London. —Loudon social practices are constantly changing these years. There are as many new turns in a year now as in two decades in the good old days of Queen Victoria— may they never return. I am some what amused by hall etiquette (or rather practice) of today. Hostesses this year don’t ask any body to halls except' those who give balls. "Ask and lie asked’ is the motto. And so you ask everyone who lias has ever asked you. As one of the disagreeable results charming girls languish through a season without a single dance invitation that amounts to anything—unless they are closely related to dance hostesses. Those who are “in the swim” are asked and asked until they are heartily tired of balldom. Perhaps expense influences ball practice a little. Each invitation nowadays represents a considerable outlay. Then, too, you are likely to have more guest 3 than you bargain for, and to be surprised when your reckoning comes in from the hotel company. For instance, my wife invites three hundred guests. Four hundred suc ceed in getting past the hotel official stationed in the hall to check the With the Trial Races on, Interest in Con test for the American Cup is Crowing Daily; Shamrock Preparing to Sail New York.—With the three America's cup defense yachts, Resolute, Vamtle and Defiance, engaged in almost daily test races and Sir Thomas Upton’s chal lenger Shamrock IV, preparing to sail for America, Interest in the coming interna tional races for (lie famous yacht trophy is increasing rapidly. The status and racing ability of the three America sloops are fairly well established but the full possibilities of the Nicholson 75 fooler will sot be known until she ran be seen in practice off Sandy Hook. Her description as cabled from England, points |t> a yacht which departs from many of the orthodox canons of sloop building. Many yachtsmen helii-ve that Designer Nichols',n with ills rad ial In novations has produced a brat that will prove extremely formidable. This he ller increases the interest with which Shamrock IV is awaited on this side of the Atlantic, anil raises the question again as to whether the cup committee will permit the challenger to he toweil at nnv time during the long ocean voyage which is to be soon undertaken. Same Question. The same question is agitating Eng lish yachting circles and there ts much d'seuss on InTiOth clubs and public prints regarding this important angle of the cup contest. Tlie Impression prevails abroad that the New York Club commit tee is opposed to granting permission to tow’ and while the matter Is under dis cussion neither the challenging or de fending clubs will state their official at titude In the matter. Basing their opinions on the assumption that such per nrssinn will be granted reluctantly, If nt all. tiie English yachtsman and writer bolds that the restriction Is one that handicaps the challenger. That there [lr c two sides to the controversy, how ever. ts shown In the following article by a well-known English yachting au thority: "It is very evident that considerable misconception exists In many quarters in regard to the efficacy of towing Dtir'ng tlie time that the matter was in doubt comment clearly showed that there existed a widespread belief that the handicap which a vessel Incurs in crossing ihe Atlantic would be very ma terially reduced If allowed to tow. This la altogether wrong. The one advant age of towing Is that, In case of light winds, and calms the time occupied on the passage la shortened. It is quite erroneous to suppose that the permis sion to tow enables a vessel to be more lightly constructed. To begin with, the permission only applies to calm weather and no one responsible for the vessel wottld desire to tow when there is any thing of a breeze I’nder certain con ditions n vessel of light construction is submitted to grealer strain In tow ng than In Haling, and |t Is by no means a comfortable mentis of progression ex cepting in fine weather. The Reason. "The reason for tips Is that In towing It Is not one continuous strain. It Is absolutely necessary to li.ive a very long tow-line, otherwise there would be the probability of the vessel In tow rutting up on the tug. I‘rogress then Is noth ing more than a setles of Jerks. When the hawser tautens the vessel receives n sudden Impetus which carries Iter along faster than her tug Is traveling. The hawser then slackens until the vessel loses her momentum, when It tautens again, and so the towing proceeds. With the slightest swell on matters are toads much worse and to attempt, to to.v a vessel against a head set Is lo submit her to anttuch more serious buffeting than she would receive In sailing. "Mr N ' liolsop. speaking on the sub ject. said the question of towing had not troubled him at ajl Any vessel so weak l\ constructed as to be unable to make the passage under sail would stand a poor ehariee of arriving on the other side In tow.” Another feature of the cup rules which does not appeal to the average marks everything, both on and off the stage. It is a model theater for the open country or small village. One of the unique features in con nection with tho Little Country Thea ter is the Coffee Tower. It is just to the right of the lower end of the stage. It, too, is plain and simple. Coffee and cakes will be served occasionally to patrons of the theater. The object of the l.ittle Country Theater ts to produce such plays as can he easily staged in a country school, tiie basement of a country church. In the sitting room of a farm home, in the village hall, or any place where country people ajssemhlc for re creation. ICmphasis will be laid on the one-ace play. Scenes from the best European and American playwrights will be tried out In the Little Country Theater, and if found suitable will be recommended to the local communities. The Little Country Theater will tost tho different samples of comedy, drama and other forms of entertainment by giving all eligible students, who come from every section of the state and the northwest, an opportunity to appear in at least one play a year, and to receive train ing in tho direction, or the getting up, of a, play. If the play or entertainment proves satisfactory, people residing in the rural districts will lie given knowl edge of the fact. By this method, tho Little Country Theater ts expected to become a. vital farce in socializing the country in North Dakota. number and take the cards. The big ball in a private house is differ; ut. But very few big affairs are given exoeut in hotels. The latge hotel is becoming more and more in to fashion for reception after smart weddings, too. There is so little sentiment or pri vacy about the modern marriage feast that the bride of today seems not lo have (he slightest objection to push ing her way across the crimson carpet outside a huge hotel In Kiiightsbridge or piecadiliy and up to the steps of a lounge possibly crowded with stran gers, and holding her reception in all the banality of an hotel saloon. There is, of course, little individ uality about such weddings. At these functions, the presents are shown in n smaller room, and the usual wed ding detectives have a. wearing time, since there 1b always a chance of light-fingered strangers strolling in. At, a recent reception, a late coiner who had not been to the church ar rived at one of the big hotels and el bowed his way through crowds and up the congested starcase till he found himself under a huge bridal “bell’’ of white flowers and shaking hands with a totally unknown bride. He had come to the wrong hotel wed ding Englishman is that which permits thn defender to Increase her waterline but does not extend the same privilege to the challenger. On lids point another writer stales; Crossing the Pond. “Apart from the troublesome delay and attendant rlHk of crossing tlie At lantic under sail there is further point In tlie conditions of the race framed by the New York (.'lull committee which appears to us most luifutr to the chal lenging ynclit. We do not say that tlie Point Is unfair In the sense that the New York Yacht Club has not the legal right to insist upon It, because as that club holds tlie cup and frames I lie rules it Is obvious that It can attach to It any conditions It pleases. If the party contemplating challenging does not like the conditions, of course he need not compele. We contend, however, that the following condition Is unfair, liuis liincli as it gives a better chance to the defender than It allows the challenger- The challenger's water-line length must not exceed 75 feet. Tli defending yacht is not bound by I tils condition; there fore, If It is found that she would do better with n little more bHllasl. she Is allowed to add the weight hikl increase her waterline to a certain percentage more than 75 “Kvery yachtuman krioww that In cor tdin (iihch if thi» privilege i« allower! to Hie American yacht and withheld from the British yacht it. may lie immensely in favor of the former vessel. For ex ample. suppose both yachts measured 75 feet and suppose both were of e<|ual merit, hut both were rather crank and would go all the better for ti little more ballast. Nuch a state of affairs Is a veVy common one in yacht racing. The conditions of the race framed by the New York Yacht Club allow the Am erican vessel to add the ballast and thus increase iier waterline over 75 # feet; but they do not allow tlie British yacht to do the same.” A cool bungalow on Monte Sano for sale, cheap Phone 75-W between 7 and 10 this evening, CONVENTIONAL.
