During her career, that has car

Pacific, and from the Oulf of Mex

and a trip to Australia, Miss Blanche

ceptionally large company of cap
able players and a huge staging and
dancing chorus, however, never
makes a journey regardless of Its
length but that at its conclusion she
does not step to the engine cab and
thank the locomotive drives for hav
ing safely reached his destination.
This same practice secured for Col
onel Roosevelt great popularity In
the Brotherhood of Locomotive En
gineers. Miss . Deyo, however, has
permitted the practice to grow into
a superstition. She is firmly con
vinced that should she neglect to
congratulate the man at the throt
tle for safely having bstought his
passengers to their journey's end, on
her next Jump some accident would
be bound to occur.
Many a locomotive driver has been
greatly surprised at haying an ex
tremely handsome, beautifully gown
ed young . woman place a white
gloved hand In his naturally greasy
palm, shake his hand earnestly and
utter: 1 "I thank you." Many f

Recently Miss Demo's itinerary took
the company frdm Hamilton to Cin
cinnati, Ohio, and from there to Chi
cago, on tne first jump, which Is
rather short. Miss Deyo was met in
the Cincinnati station by several
friends and In the excltiment and
greeting the usual handshake with
the engine pilot was neglected. The
following week, when the company
was going on the other leg of the
journey, at Gas City, Indiana, the en
tire special train was derailed and
dumped into a ditch. Luckily there
were no casualties, but the accident
served 'to bring forth a solemn dec
laration from the actress that, never
again would she depart 'from a rail
road coach without grasping the hand
of the engineer.
"The Chocolate Soldier."
Of the worlo-wide fame,v "The
Chocolate Soldier," an opera bouffe
treatment of George Barnard Shaw's
"Arms and the Man," Englished by
Stainslaus Strange, comes to the Acad
emy of Music Monday evening.
The score will be -interpreted by

ly sparkles, with wit, spirit and
brightness, and the music Is tuneful,
eatery and dreamy and sensuous by
turns. In fact, the entire score is
so dainty and charming that it fasci
nates as well as entertains its hear
ers. The famous "My Hero' waits
has been borne everywhere on the
breezes, and is considered most insid
ious in its appeal and most musically
perfect' bit of harmonic composition
since Jftxe days of Johann, father of
the present Oscar Strails, sent, forth

have lived so- long and sun them

er haxe they been exploited in foreign
audience rooms than they are secur-
i ed by Batnum and Bailey agents. In
variably novelties are introduced to
America by this circus. When they
cease to be novelties they are passed
down to other shows and another
budget of imported wonders takes
their places. It is purely a foreign
bill. Over 10 startling acts are pre
sented by 400 of the leading artists
of the world. This show employs
1,280 people. It has 700 horses. In
its menagerie are 103 Cages, pens,
1 tanks and dens in which are displayed
1,200 wild and semi-domestic animals.
Among them re forty elephants and
thirty camels. There are four gi
raffes. One of them is a year-old
baby the first one ever born or ex
hibited in this country.
The main performance is given: in
three rings, on two stages, on an im
mense hippodrome track and in a
dome 400 feet long. Among the big
acts are those of the balloon horse,
a company of cream stallions that
play on Swiss bells, a braoss band of
elephants, 'and a company of eques
trian seals and a wonderfully human
like chimbanzee, Charlie the first,
who performs on one of the stages
He Is the greatest bicycle . rider and
Jugler on earth. These acts reach th
juggler on erath. These acts reach
the utter extreme of sensationalism.
There are any number of thrillers
and the programme sparkles with the
wit and humor ,of the fifty funniest
clowns on earth. ......
The drops has a newly-built equip
ment. It wsa devised and executed
in the foreign workshops of the show
in England. Five long railroad trams
are needed to haul it from city to
city. In all there are eighty-five
cars. The new outfit cost the man
agement $3,500,000. With all these
added improvements the Barnum and
Bailey show stands at th zenith of
glory. Never before in itir history of
splendid achievements has it been so
i attractive as now. it opened its
spring engagement in Madison sqaure
Garden. New York City, before the
most distinguished audience that ever
assembled in a circus arena. It made
th biggest hit in all its career.

It is epoch-making in bringing to the! No physician can prescribe a better
great favor of theatre-goers a true
opera bouffe in which music tells the
storyo as well as does the dialogue,
in which every member of the cast
is funny some of the time, though
there is no special comedian, in which
a full story is told without interpola
ted horse-play of any kind.
The story of 'The Chocolate Sol
dier" has-to do with a young Swiss
gentleman forced into the Servian
army and who . takes refuge in the
house of a 'Bulgarian colonel, and
captivates his wife, young cousin and
also her daughter. The latter Is en
gaged to a Bulgarian major, who po
ises as a hero. The Swiss chap is an
engaging fellow, whose diet has been
restricted to ochocolate drops, but
he is very vogorous in his love-making
and creates no end of complica
tions. Th bogus Bulgarian hero is
finally exposed and the Chocolate Sol
dier wins the hand of the Buggarian
maid after the difficulties have been
IroMed out. It develops that the real
hero Is the sono of a leading hotel
keeper in Switzerland and able to
overcome all the terrors of modern
housekeeping.

Liszt's Romantic life.
"Franz List The Real and Legend
ary," in October Scribner.
The story of his career is roman
tic as any by Balzac. And the end
of It all after a half century and
more of fire and flowers, of proud,
brilliant music-making was positive,
ly tragical A gentle King Lear, fol
lowing with resignation the conquering
chariot of a man, his daughters's hus
band, who owed him so much and,
despite criticism, acknowledged his?
debt thus faithful to the end (he
once declared that by Wagner he
would stand or fall) Franz Liszt died
of a century ago at Bayreuth, not
as Liszt the Conqueror, but a word
weary pilgrim, petted and flattered
when young, neglected as the star of
Wagner arose on the horizon. If
only Liszt could have experienced the
success of poverty as did Wagner.
But the usual malevolent fairy of the
fable endowed him with all the gifts
but poverty, and that capricious old
Pantaloon, the Time-Spirit had his
joke in the lonesome latter years.
As regards his place in the musi
cal pantheon this erstwhile comet Is
now a fixed star, and his feet are set
upon the white throne. There is no
longer a Liszt Case; his music has
fallen into critical perspective;' but
there is still a Liszt Case, phycho
logically speaking. Whether he was
an archangel of light or, as Jean -Christophe
describes him: "The no
ble priest, the circus-rider, neoclas
sical and vagabond, a mixture , in
equal doses of real and false nobility."

About the

what some people think of
the dictionaries.
Circulation Department,
Gentlemen: The beauti
ful little dictionary arrived
according to promise. It is
an admirable book in every,
way, but to be more specific
I shall indicate particulars
upon the enclosed slip of
" valuable features.' ' This
much is apparent at a
glance and I have no doubt
that the valuable features of
the volume will be limited
only by the use to which the
dictionary is put. With many
thanks, most sincerely,
Dear Sirs: I received my
dictionary ; alright and am
pleased with it in every way.
It has more'thaif come up to
my expectations in every
