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, The Arcadium ROGERS & MARVIN, a quirt evening at home, JOE CHEVERS, Character Comedian, LITTLE ANNIE CHEVERS, In songs In different languages.

I wish to extend my appreciation for the kindly -sympathy and beautiful floral pieces extended to us in the illness and death of my grandmother, Mrs. Ellen Ready. Very respectfully, C. B. MATHENY. alio 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 sult in case the door slams?” “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 sissippi.” Mantells Engagement Ends. Robert Mantell ended h!s present engagement at the New Amsterdam theatre. His Shakespeare revivals BOARD DID NOT DISCUSS PAY OF RURAL TEACHERS The board of education held its regular monthly meeting Saturday at the lubman high school. There was no special business before the hoard and it was in session only a few min utes. The reports of the secretary and the financial committee were read. The matter of increasing the pay of the rural teachers was Aiot taken up. The pay of the teachers is fixed at the tune meeting of the board, and the matter will rest until that time, when some action will be taken on it THE AUGUSTA HERALD have been interesting noteworthy happenings for lovers of the classic. Miss Blanche Bates. Miss Blanche aßtes ends her en gagement at the eßlasco tonight, and “A Stubborn Cinderella." now at the Broadway, will go on the road. Miss Henrietta Crossman, in her newest comedy, “Sham,” has settled down for a spring run at the Wtfl lack’s, while across Broadway, at the Bijou, “A Gentleman from Mississip pi," with' Mr. Thomas A. Wise in the stellar role, is not to be disturbed. Miss Anna Held with her company in “Miss Innocence" is the attraction at the New York, where the musical comedy will likely Tound out the pres ent season. “The Third Degree" is at the Hud son, and at the Savoy the play is "The Battle. “Sporting Days," with a ballet and circus features, remains as the attraction at the Hippodrome. The hig amusement house is to re main open until far into the summer.

TO- FINISH BEftVER DAM DITCH QUICKLY 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 mediately to make them thoroughly comfortable. They are being well cared for.
