A aa aid to the draa.a'lc.ours, man Insti tution produce' at stated Intervals plays written by the undergraduates. Some of these plays are of superior quality, and a fair percentage of them find their place on the regular com mercial stage of the country. The education of so many young people in the practii-al dramatic art will result in a largely increased number of persona with a sense of tbe drama as an art. and naturally. will encourage the manager who is seeking honestly to produce the best Dlars. Backed by the support of this ' j serious body of theatregoers, the ; ' I managers will be able to eliminate The rise of the American play, B0M.,n( more the long line of cheap writhi in the last 15 years has bee meiodrama3, bucolic playa, and In one of tne nneapectea aereiopmenM cngeqnentui musical comedies with w amsHc crowxa or tnia cowry. wh,fh they nlTe wont to regale Any person or mtaaie age can reaa- th lheatre eoerl America. 8CB8CHIPTI0X BATES. tOr, single e Wtaj, pr week ,. fly, per ateath .. . it .lie .tie X Economical Shoppers Take Advantage of These Savings on Seasonble Merchandise H 03 03 cpurnso thb oraxa. i. ily tell you that In his youth It was ai-1 asoet foolhardy for an American -dramatist to attempt tbe writing of ' a play, and, what la more, attempt to tare his play produced. . The theatrl eal managers of this country drew -regularly upon the English and tbe French playwrights, and the playgo- teg publl- waa surfeited with the English comedy of manners, with Its titled characters and with the French tlays, with their Interminable vari ation of the dramatic triangle. Now, however, there are so many good American dramas that the foreign made play Is beginning to be a nor- elty. The colleges of this country are beginning more and more to give attention to courses on the drama.

The largest excavating machine er er built is capable of digging a mile of ditch six feet deep and 12 feet wide every day. It la employed in the con stractlon of canals and laterals com prising an Irrigation system to water tbe 16,000 acres which compose the Cndahy ranch, situated In tbe Imper lal valley of Mexico. Tbe c&nditions are Identical with those of tbe valley of the Kile, for this ranch is of silt lands built up by the bzcs of overflow of the Rio Grande river. The ma chine weighs 100,000 pounds and cov ers an area, of 25x60 feet. It is en tirely of steel construction and is pro pelled by two 30 horse power oil en gines. The fore part of the machine carries the engines which drive a shaft wheel, which in turn, by a ser ies of cogs and chains, propels the machine over the ground and at the same time operates the immense cir cular digger carried at the rear. This digger Is equipped wltn scoops bear ing sharpened blades of steel. It first picks up the dirt and, revolving up ward, drops Its burden onto convey ors which carry, it to both sides, de positing it upon the banks of the excavation. The machine 1 sso nice ly adjusted that It can dig a ditch from two inches up to eight feet In depth and from four to 12 feet wide, shaping and finishing the excavation aa It proceeds. With this machine seven men do the work of 50 scraper shovels hauled by 100 mules, with a driver for each team. A German scientist coduemns the fiLeath skirt, claiming that It makps 7 omen knock-kneed. Though this Is uoubted, It ss true that the garment cveals something . not generally l-.cown.
