HISTORIC FIRST NIGHTS. Red Letter Events In the Dramatic History of France. Perhaps the most striking events in the artistic history of France have been the first performances of some of the great French plays. In a few cases also these occasions have mark ed the beginning of new epochs In the I social history of the country, so close Is the connection between tho social development of the people and Its ex pression on the stage. Unless I am mistaken, there hni< been but six un forgettable first nights since theaters were established lu Paris. The first occurred in 1637. when Cor neille’s “Cid" took the capital by storm. Forty years later Racine's “Androm ache” created a similar sensation. On the eve of the revolution. In 1784. Beaumarchais' "Marriage of Figaro” was received with such delirious en thusiasm that three people were sti fled In the rush for scats, in 1830 Victor nugo. In spite of tho determln- ! cd opposition of a large body of reac- , tionaries, sei all Paris In an uproar ; with his “Hemal.” These names should be born« In 1 mind: Corneille, Racine, Beaumarchais and Victor Hugo. Three of them at least have no superiors In the history of French literature. Each has one amazing dramatic triumph to his cred it. The other two of the six great first nights were the 28th of Decem ber, 1897. and the 7th of February, 1910. The occasions were respective ly the performances of “Cyrano de Bergerac*’ and "Cbantecler,” both by Edmond Rostand. — Cincinnati Com mercial Tribune.

R. Neil; tropolis this week. It seems to us that the matter has H. L. Sommer and Leora Pearl Ker been magnified out of all proportion. There is absolutely by- ----------- e®«----------- no evidence whatever that Mr Coleman attempted to embezzle any of the funds belonging to the state in fact within 24 hours after the demand was made he had remitted to the proper authorities the full amount delinquent, something over $10,000. Some of his detract ors would likely have been about 24 years in making a like remittance. As the matter has been so thoroughly discussed in different papers during the past week we will simply say that the entire amount due the Estate has been remitted by Mr Coleman and that the whole matter was an oversight and not an attempt to defraud or wrong either the state or its citizens. Imagine a thin, tall, bearded, clean CJt individual, black hair and eye:», ols complexion ranging In color from thnt of the negro to Caucasian fair* ness, clothed in richly embroidered undergarments, over which gracefully fall the folds of a finely woven halk or Jellabn, his stockinged feet shoved Into yellow slippers, on his shaved head a red fez, about which is wound a spotless white turban—and you have a type of the town Moroccan—tho Moor. The coarse brown Jellaba of camel’s or goat’s hair, sometimes handed down through several generations; oc casionally sandals and a small, tight fitting woolen cap make up the cos- 1 tnme of the countryman, although one finds him oftener barefoot and bare headed, head shaved, save for the lit tle cue which characterizes the Berber and Kabyle, who believe that at the Inst day this will be used as a sort of handle with which they will be hauled up to heaven. He Is often a nomadic trader and arranges his Journey so as to be at the town on certain market days, and nt these times one may see these men. with thqlr goods on heavy draft cam els or overloaded donkeys, steadily trudging their way over the rough caravan trails.

When bro ken for use it weighs about fifty-four pounds. Bituminous coal when broken up for use weighs about fifty pounds. The consequent rule for the approxi mate measurement of coal in a bln or box Is to multiply the length in feet by the height In feet and again by the breadth in feet and this result by fifty- four for anthracite coal or by fifty for bituminous coal. The result will equal the number of pounds, and to find the number of tons divide by 2,000.—Popu lar Mechanics.
