THI CCNTAUR COMMMV, TT AT THE THEATERS "The Arrival of Kitty" Gennett. Miss Florence Forrest, who enacts the character of Jane in the comedy surprise, "The Arrival of Kitty," is most favorably known in this city from her former visits with the following attractions: "Fantana," "The Chinese Honeymoon," and "Piff, Paff, Poult," and no doubt her legion of friends will give her an ovation and a royal welcome on her appearance at the Gennett tonight. Miss Forrest is a young woman of versatile talent and combined with her histrionic abilities she is a song writer, essayist, writer of poems and a linguist. In the current number of "The Idler," Miss Forrest has an able article. She Is also well traveled, having traversed .the Atlantic Ocean no 1 less than twelve times. It is Miss Forrest's intention at the close of the present season to retire from the stage and take up her abode in Southern California, where she has invested heavily in orange groves. "A Stranger in Town" Gennett Frank Beamish, who comes to the Gennett next Friday night, in the jolly musical farce, "A Stranger in Towi," Is one of the best known comedians in the country. As a character actor in stock he is known from end to end of the country. "A Stranger in Town," is one of those bright, breezy tonics, built for the express purpose of driving away the "blues" and if there be any one in the town who suffersfrom melancholy, the tip is out that "A Strange in Town" will be the best physician to consult. Al. Reeves New Phillips. Next" Thursday night the New Phillips will present Al Reeves "Beauty Show," which this season surpasses all previous efforts. Mr. Reeves has surrounded himself with the most elaborate and costly productions he has ever owned. This is the fourteenth annual , tour of Al. Reeves '"Beauty Show," He has expended a small fortune in making this the banner attraction of his life, surrounding himself with high-class vaudeville acts, clever comedians, beautiful women, elaborate scenery, gorgeous cosTHE CHICAGO, CINCINNATI & LOUISVILLE R.

"Thorns and Orange Blossoms." The new Rowland and Clifford play "Thorns and Orange Blossoms," which was produced in Chicago, is i .'from the pen of the prelific writer, Lena B. Parker, who is also respon sible for a number of other successes. From the start "Thorns and Orange Blossoms" was a hit and the largest business of the season resulted from its engagement in Chicago. "Thorns and Orange Blossoms" Is not a lurid melodrama, but a comedy drama, with a set of characters that are thoroughly interesting. Rowland & Clifford have mounted this new play superbly and it is one of the ten productions that is being exploited by this progressive firm this season. "Thorns and Orange Blossoms" will be presented at the Gennett Wednes day night. "A Mad Love" Gennett. Tuesday night one of the special attractions to be presented at the Gennett will be found in the splendid new version of Miss M. E. Braddon's ! world famous work. "Lady Audley's Secret," and which is now touring the principal cities of the country, to i enormous business under the title of "A Mad Lidve," under tlie manage ment of Edward R. Salter with the superb emotional star, Miss Lyda Powell and a splendid company of players. "A Mad Love" is divided into a prologue and three acts and Is briefly described as a stageland accurately arranged series of pictures taken from daily life. It deals with woman's sufferings through a husband's inhumanity to her. Vaudeville at the Phillips. Bartlett and Collins, who are on the vaudeville program that will be inaugurated at the New Phillips this afternoon, are expected to furnish the patrons of this house with a real surprise, as they come heralded as a specialty perfection, with a comedy novelty that is entirely new. For several weeks hand and head balanc ing has been missing from the pro gram, but this week St. Arno and Croumer will give what is "said to be one of the best samples of this, style of entertainment to be found in vaudeville. Leo and ? Sulkey -. are counted on as mirth provokers. They will appear in "Casey's Troub les." and have a novelty break-away boxing act. In addition there are Laura Jones, the nightingale whist ler; York and Herbert, a, trio who sing dance and furnish comedy and acrobatic turns; Miss Ruby Cohan, who sings the illustrated songs, and the rhiloseope, showing the latest motion pictures. Thursday .night. owing to the appearance of Al. Reeves Beauty show, there will be no vaudeville. Amateurs Friday night.

Humor and Philosophy By DUNCAN M. SMITH
PERT PARAGRAPHS. Pipe dreams rarely pay for the imagination invested in them. Some households run like clockwork -dollar clock. No eentleman ever admits that he has corns for the populace to tread upon. Nothing appreciates like a desire for appreciation. People who have money to bum are the people who don't burn it. And neither do the other people, by the way. Being aggressive is fun for the ag gressor only when he is the biggest. People who are absolutely without savor or salt are apt to plume them selves greatly on being amiable. It is not hard to have a good opinion of a man who keeps his opinion of hisiself to himself. Hopeless. The season now Is almost o'er When ragweed drives to fury Its sneezing victims by the score Condemned without a jury. "When from hay fever. we are free To boast would be an error. For grip on hand next day will be To keep us all in terror. Reform Spelling. Maybe the president thinks lie has discovered something new in reform spelling, but the self made man may come to the front one of these days modestly claiming that he saw it first. There may.be some good reason-why we should spell a word one way and pronounce it another way, but it re quires a college education to discover the reason, and not all of us have time for that. For example, is there any one who thinks we are doing something bright when we go way around the bush and turn a few handsprings on the lawn to spell yacht when we could come at it in such a simple and direct manner by just spelling it "yot" and telling those who didn't like our way of spelling to go and fall off a bam? This is one of the reforms that has been overdije for several. centuries and there is not the slightest clanger that the common people wili get sore about it. Walking on the Crust. English scientists who have measured It in their minds estimate that the earth's cruet is forty-five miles thick. While that does not seem like a very long distance on the earth's surface, if a man is on the cars riding on a pass, It is quite a distance down if one had to dig it with a spade. To the ordinary lazy man the post hole two feet deep aeems far enough if not too far to go down into tKe bowels of the earth. If told to dig down forty-five miles he would throw up his hands, his spade and his job and look for employment that was a great deal more like fishing. It would be nice to get down under the crust to see what is there. Maybe we are living on top of a big pie. Who knows? However, that is not what the scientists think. They say that down below is a raging fire, so perhaps heavy men should be careful as to how they jump on the crust. Both Ducks Attract. 'Why do men so like duck hunting?" 'So they can duck work." Evident. "Why does he object to a talkative woman?" "He takes the talking parts well himself." Cautious Reply. "Is he respectable?" "Well, he has never been found out.' Easy. What made him marry for money?" Lack of money. Just Among Sports. The finish is not to the swift. liesarf .--? of his haste.

Gentlemen in all parts of the country who are attacking the peekaboo waist, doubtless with the best of intentions, may as well prepare to retire from the field worsted, ujiless, as is not at all improbable, they remain to admire. In these days when fresh air is supposed to cure everything, unless, possibly, the fresh young man, we cannot see why anybody should object to a well ventilated waist. People who set thirteen shocks a minute on viewing these dainty creations, because, forsooth, they are immodest, should pause in their busy work of reforming the world to see whether there is any resemblance be tween them aud tlis Turk who thinks it is immodest for a girl to show her face. Meanwhile let them not worry about the peekaboo. If fashion dictates that it should be worn the police could not drive it way. No Wool to Dye. "Pa, why did you call Mr. Snookers a dyed in the wrool Republican? ' "Because he is one and proud of it.'' "I don't see how he can be. I saw him with his hat off, and he has no more hair than a billiard ball." He Knew. "You know what a stitch in time does." "Yes, it cost a big surgeon's fee In my case." Easy to Suit. "What qualifications would you demand In a husband?" "Well, he must wear trousers," PERT PARAGRAPHS. If you can't attract notice any other way hire a brass band. A picnic that isn't a picnic is apt to be a picnic. A drumm?r is very successful when he carries a few brains as a side line. In some countries it is hard to tell a revolution from a man welcoming his mother-in-law. When you don't like old customs make new ones. It is said that poets are born, which isn't surprising, for most of us could show a birth certificate. Nothing but a financial interest will make people remember you after the lapse of time. Even an earthquake can't separate some people from a good thing. Trouble is usual ly able to accom modate the individual who is looking for it. There's nothing big about some people but the mIse they make. TKE SKIP THATS SAVED NY LASS . at the Gennett Tuesday night.

How fine and dandy it would be. How very, very nice. If we could travel on our shape. Nor think about the price; If we could" take a railroad train Whene'er we would go hence To any portion of the land Regardless of expense. , If we could order up a cab Or buy a touring car And feel, when we received the bin. No symptom of a jar; If we could own a private yacht And sail the public sea And say to those who shook their heads. "Expense can't bother me." If we could pick a suit of clothes. The finest tn the store. And say ofThanded to the clerk. "Send up a dozen more;" If we could purchase right and left Whatever we might see The same as though we owned the mint, - How lovely it would be! Alas, the thing that hampers u When we would cut a dash Is not our modesty oh, no; It's lack of tainted cash! How fine and dandy it would be. How very, very nice. If we could flit about and sayt "Expenses cut no ice!" EASTERN IRRIGATION. Iconooiioal aud Successful Methods In Xortli Atlantic States. According to the popular conception, the field for irrigatiou is the arid or semiarid region in the west and does not extend to the humid east, where the supplj- of moisture is considered sufficient for the growth of crops. The distribution of rainfall, however, is so uncertain that crops throughout the east often suffer from droughts. With out irrigation certain crops, such as Btrawberries, celery and cauliflower, may be entirely lost. Economical and successful methods of irrigatiou adapt ed to humid conditions are. however, Quite extensively used. August J. SLIDIXO GATE TS FLUME. Dowie. Jr., an expert in the irrigation and drainage investigations of the department of agriculture, has noted some interesting points of practice in a recent report on irrigation in the north Atlantic states. t The advantages to be gained from irrigation are limited to certain crops. Such field crops as timothy, clover, wheat, rye, oats and corn are not particularly affected by droughts of short duration. The value of such crops iu eastern Pennsylvania will usually lie between 15 aud $30 per acre, and irrigation in such instances would hardly pay under present conditions. The case of truck crops is entirely different. The value of a single crop will often be ?200 to $1,500 per acre, and usually two to three crops are grown on the same laud in a year. Crops of this nature are much more sensitive to drought than field crops. The success of irrigation under the conditions found in the east is due not to cheap water supply, but to the high value of crops grown and the careful distribution of , the small quantity of water used. Most of the irrigated meadow land in Pennsylvania lies near the fcds of small creeks fed by springs. Small dams constructed of timber back filled with earth afe built to raise the water sufficiently high to cover the land, but not for storage. They are usually small affairs, cheaply constructed, costing from $3 to $20. The use of wells as a source of Irrigation is quite limited. Many farmers near the large cities use city water for Irrigation, since if the farm is small and the use of water is limited it is thought to be cheaper than pumping. The reason for the prevalence in the east of the sprinkling method of irrigation, which is practically unknown in arid sections, lies in two important differences iu the conditions of irrigation practice first, the quantity of water applied in one irrigation in the east must be small owing to the risk of sudden and heavy rains which would swamp a crop if falling soon after a heavy irrigation, and, second, the soils used for truck farmiug in the east are not, as a rule, so capable of storing and retaining water as the arid soils, so that a heavy irrigation once a month will not answer the needs of garden crops in the east. With the sprinkling system it is possible to apply uniformly as small a quantity of water as desired, while with furrows enough must be applied to run through the furrows and soak laterally to the roots of the plants. Noting the use of handmade canvas hose to carry water downhill from the pump under very light pressure in one system of furrow irrigation, Mr. Bowie says muslin one yard in width is cut up into three strips, each of which is made into a hose, which is then dipped in a mixture of coal tar CAEEIEIi FOB PIPE AND SPBXKELEBS. and oil. The water is admitted by short hose to the ends of V 5-haped wooden troughs, from which it is admitted to - the furrows by means of adjustable sliding gates. (See first cut.) The troughs are built of 1 by " and 1 by G Inch boards nailed together and provided with lJ inch holes. There are three holes in these trough for every two furrows. On one New Jersey farm the ground is irrigated by sprinkMng.from several water witches set ten feet apart on a movable length of two, inch pipe,- which is mounted every twenty feet on two wheeled carriages. Eleven water witches are moan teal ! on-100 feet . of " pipe supported by fouflcerf iagesas shown in Fig. 2. and 'TrfU" irrigtte, without "moving, a space 110 by 10 feet.
