♦ “A RESOLUTION.” ♦
♦ ♦
As I wandered through the woodland,
I beheld a tombstone old,
And the words engraved upon it,
Wholly hidden by the mold.
So I, taking from my pocket
A knife (it was worn from use),
Thus I managed to remove it,
Though it was dull from much
abuse.
And the words upon the tombstone
May seem few but nothing more,
‘‘ln remembrance of our Helen,
Who’s not here, but gone before.”
But these words, they put me think
ing,
Thinking of the dear one there,
Thinking of the dear one’s parents,
Wondering who they were and
where.
Wondering then if all the dear omes,
Kindred here on earth below,
Were preparing now to meet her
On that happy golden shoye.
But, alas! am I not wasting
Golden hours that swiftly pass?
I am idling, idling, idling,
I am with the idle mass.
So I then arose and started.
"I am now resolved,” said I,
‘‘For to scatter seeds of kindness
For a reaping by and by.”
Soatter seeds of loving kindness,

IMPORTANT QUERY
“Yes,” said the employment agent,
"I think I have a job that will suit
you. A downtown merchant wants a
young man to be partly out of doors
and partly behind the counter.”
“I don’t know about that,” rejoined
the applicant. "What will be the re

“BARNSTORMING" TROUPES ARE
RETURNING TO OLD NEW YORK
NEW YORK.—This is the time of
| year when eCntral Park is filled with
| the music of birds, just returned from
their Southern winter home, and also
the time of year when the weary the
atrical troupes turn toward the wel
come lights of Broadway. The opera
house at Oconotnowoc, Wl-s., and Belle
ville, Miss., are closed for the sum
mer. From the dejected and haggard
appearance of some of the “barnstorm
ing” troupes just returned, it appears
j that business has been poor on the
j "road” during the past winter. Up
! to date the great prosperity wave we
heard so much about last summer
hadn't -struck Pike Centre, Wis., or
! Primrose Park, Mich., when the weary
1 thespatian played their last “one
; night” stand.
! For the past week companies of
I the “one night” actors have been
! streaming into New York, by express,
| trolley, freight, or on foot; according
jto their financial standing. The gaunt
: look of many indicated that the ghost
had taken the back track after the
| last one night, leaving the poor over
| worked disciples of Shakespeare to
reach Broadway the best way he
could—picking up his meals in irreg
ular and -scanty form. But in New
York the "barnstormer” is fairly sure
of getting three square meals a day
and a comfortable bed. True, the
moving picture machines have raised
havoc with the summer vaudeville,
but then these moving picture com
panies maintain large companies of
actors to produce the plays that are
afterward shown on their films in hun
dreds of places.
New Attractions.
Word comes from Pari-s that A. L.
Erlanger and Florenz Ziegfield, rival
| theatrical leaders, will arrive in New
; York within two weeks with some new
and delightful ideas for the enter
tainment of New Yorkers during the
hot months.
“The Scandal.”
. Although Charles Frohman has
bought Henri Battalies new play,
“The Scandal,” no date lias been set
for its production here. “The Scan
dal ‘ is said to he a strong play, with
some risque features which may have
to be toned down for American aCTi
ences. It deals with the emotion of
a wife who is being blackmailed per
sistently by a man who had wooed
her before her marriage, and she gives
him her money and jewels. Discovery
of the fact by the husband has led to
many dramatic situations, which the
author has taken advantage of to pro
duce a play that, is pleasing to Paris
ians, but will have to be blue-penciled
and interlined for New Yorkers.
Miss Tilley Returns.
Miss Vesta Tilley, who has recently
returned from London where she sang
before King Edward, will be heard at
the Colonial next week in new songs
she has brought from London.
"Rebecca."
IClaw and Erlanger have acquired
for production early next season a
play by Kate Douglas Wiggins and
Charlotte Thompson entitled “Rebec
ca,” being a dramatization of the two
novels, "Rebecca of Sunny Brook
Farm” and “The Chronicles of Rebec
ca,” by Miss Wiggins. The charac
ter appeals through its quaintness and
the story is one cf healthy simplicity.
Miss Morris’ Benefit.
A testimonial performance will be
given in the New York theatre on
April 16 for the benefit of Miss Clara
Morris, who, on account of long ill
ness, has been unable to continue her
literary work It is hoped to raise a
sum sufficient to clear up a mortgage
on her home, in order that she may
live in her own home the remainder
oi her days. “The Twelfth Night”
club, assisted by local managers, is
arranging for tho performance. Many
of the most prominent actors in Amer
ica will take part, in the performance.
Thomas' New Play.
Augustus Thomas' new play, which
he has not yet named, is said to go
further along phychologieal lines than
“The Witching Honr.” The new play
has been purchased by Charles Froh
man and will have its initial presenta
tion early in the fall, with George
Nash, who plays the heavy role in
“The Witching Hour,” in the leading
part.
New Musical Comedy.
“Lost in Siberia” is the name of a
new musical comedy. Some of those
new comedies don’t get as far as Si
beria.
Boston Bars Salome.
Heeding a protest signed by repre
sentative men in the business and so
cial life of Boston, Oscar Hammer
stein decided that Bostop was not
ready for “Salome” yet, and withdrew
It from the bill at Boston theatre on
Thursday last. The protest was sign
ed by Mayor Hibbard, ex-Oovernor
Guild, and nearly a hundred clergy
men, who called Mr. Hammerstein’s
attention to the fact that a presenta
tion of “Salome” during Holy Week
would offend a large portion of the
citizens of Boston.
Buchanan In Harness.
Thompson Buchanan, who used to
cover the theatres for a metropolitan
newspaper before ho turned dramat
ist and produced “A Woman’s Way,”
has been engaged for the part of Bud
Haines in “a Gentleman from Mis

Commissioner Wingfield
Says This Work Will Be
Completed This Year.
Mr. Nisbet Wingfield, commissioner
of public works, says that ho figures
the end of 190!) will see finished the
enlargement of Beaver Dam ditch, the
elevation , and strengthening of the
canal banks, the elevation of the bulk
heads at the locks, and the paving (or
rip-rapping) of Hawks Gully.
The convict gang is progressing
well in the work of clearing the right
of-way of the ditch. Just now they
are grubbing stumps. Next they will
cut down all underbrush that might
obstruct their progress. By the time
this is finished, the surveyors will
have completed their task and every
thing will be ready to start on ac
tual work of cutting tiled itch wider
and deeper. f
Commissioner Wingfield is of the
opinion tnat when work begins on the
lower end of the ditch it will be a
good idea to move camp, and sleep
the conviots in tents. This cannot be
done, however, until later in the year,
when the nights grow warm.
Saturday morning Superintendent
Youngblood made requisition for more
blankets. The night wes chilly and
several of the men complained of cold.
As a consequence it was set about im

comfortable. They are being well
cared for.
