INTO THE
SUBURBS.
A petition up before the crunty court
for a nev road is significant of the
manner in which Albany's suDurbs will
now be cut up into streets and high
ways. W. K. Price and others want a
road in extension of Hill street, same
width, reaching out through the fields
to the main road, parallel, with the
r:ad ib extension of Jackson street. F.
M. .Mitchell, C. 3. Mullen and Surveyor
Geddes wer- appointed viewers and the
road will undoubtedly be built as asked
for.
This means that some of the splendid
lots in that suburb will be put on the
market, offering a fine suburban res
idence district.

A Lasting Play.
It is alwaya difficult to judge the life
of a play, and many of the most talked of
successes rarely survive a second sea
son. When '"A Gentleman from Miss
issippi," which comes to Albany Satur
day night was first produced three
years its most ardent admirers could rot
have foretold its lasting popularity.
The play is imbued with that lasting
pathos which bo strongly haunts the
lives of men and women and is no less
present in their joy than in their sor
row. Aroid the peals of laughter one
heaca the old heart break and in this
the play is true to life as it has been
lived upon the earth since the world be
gan. The Boy is a Genius.

a program from the great composers in
Christian Science hall last evening th t
was a musical triumph.
"Arriola is a genius. Be is, perhaps,
as great a genius as Liszt.
"Of the entire program, which com
prised Beethoven, Chopin, Rachmanin
off, Schumann and Liszt, the Beethoven
sonata and the Chopin polonaise were
given with the artistic perfection usually
found only in the mature development
of great genius "
