Theatrical Notes John Cort will be in San Francisco at the end of this month to witness the opening of the Savoy theatre. The season will be opened August 20th by the Max Dill Company in "The Girl Behind the Counter." After one week, Florence Roberts will follow, under the management of Ernest Shipman. Then Dill will be brought back for three weeks in another show.

Harry Corson Clark will be the next attraction, with his "Absent Boy." This will bring the time up to September 24th, when Walter De Leon and Muggins" Davies will show themselves as stars in "The Campus," under the management of Charley Kavanagh and Ferris Hartman. House Next Door" will take possession October 2d. In succession will come "The Flower of the Ranch," "The Traveling Salesman," "In Old Kentucky," "Polly Circus," Rose Melville, Three Twins," Billy Clifford and Frederick Bowers In a new play. This is a list that at a dollar should do a big business. To please an author with a stage production of his work is a difficult feat, yet Ernest Shipman, the manager of "'The Barrier' company, has succeeded so well in this respect that Rex Beach, has agreed to two companles of "'The Barrier' being launched next season, and furthermore has given Mr.

Shipman the first refusal of the dramatic rights to his latest serial, the "Ne'er Do Well." The Pacific Coast will be re- -visited by the No. 1 company next season, while a number two company will be organized to cover the Eastern and middle states. Lawrence D'Orsay started the American managers upon their extravagant career of paying high salaries for European artists. D'Orsay had become a favorite in the English Metropolis. His connection with the nobility was a strong asset.

In addition to this D'Orsay could act. He had learned to ape the affectations and mannerisms of his clique of titled associates, as no actor had ever succeeded in doing. Kirke La Shelle, then at the height this power, conceived the idea of bringing him to America. Augustus Thomas surprised the world of letters by his very excellent play "The Earl of Pawtucket." It was to fit D'Orsay and cost La $800 written, per salary and a good slice of the profits to transplant D'Orsay to America, but it was accomplished, and the tremendous success of this farce of "high is now a matter of history. Too much prosperity spoiled somebody somewhere in the threecornered arrangement, for while the play was in the zenith of its success, clearing as high as $10,000 profts in some weeks, it closed.

Demands poured in from all parts of the country for its continuance, but "Pawtucket" got the camphor bath and the most tempting offers from producing and stock managers all over the country, could not drag it from the safe of the Kirk La Shelle estate. It remained for John Cort to succeed where every other manager failed and this season Lawrence D'Orsay will be seen again in his greatest success. The company opens in New York under Cort's direction, and will travel as far as San Francisco. Final arrangements have been completed between Charles Frohman and Sir A. W.

This the Pinero comedy based on the incident of the stolen kiss; and "Preserving Mr. Panmure" is the account of the busy adventures of an entire household to keep from notoriety the indiscretion of married John Panmure, who with only partial success, steals a kiss from his wife's maid, "Josepha."

A limited return engagement of Girl in the Taxi" is announced for the The Birth of a New Power By Max Nordau We are now witnessing a great event, from which later on will be dated, perhaps, the beginning of a new historic epoch. How many are there among us who are conscious or even have the vaguest presentiment of the historical importance of the present moment? France has recently lived through a week of tragical days of a great movement. On two of her most important railroad systems all animation re mained suspended, while others were in danger of a similar fate. In these days when the press has reached such stage of feverish activity, It was quite natural that considerable space was given in the columns of the newspapers to these events.

But too much space was given to anecdotes and unImportant said details, about while the little profound or noth- importance of the whole movement. By these great revolutionary attempts in France the young labor or ganizations have given evidence of their strength, and these associations are the work of the general union of laborers. This latter is, in my opinion, nothing but the typical incarnation representing the movement of bodies which, according to the theories of Kant and Laplace, produce new world formations outside the confusions of chaotic matter. Superficial observers still continue confounding "syndicalism" with socialism, and socialistic writers and orators favor this confusion, which is the resuit of superficial observation and lack of judgment, because it tends to consolidate the idea that the power of socialism is decreasing and passing into the hands of syndicalism. But in reality these two movements have only one fact in common--they both spring from the proletariat, On every other point syndicalism differs from socialism and very often is opposed to it.

The educational work of the socialistic propaganda, which awakens in the masses the consciousness of their strength and which has taught them to their wants and claims in an imperative form, may have given the Impulse to trade unions and accelerated their evolution, but it is by no means certain that socialism or trade unionism is the father of syndicalism. In trade unionism you often see a faint resemblance to the old guilds; that is to say, in spite of all revolutionary rhodomontades. a. historical continuity, a strange traditionalism. But no matter what may be the origin of syndicalism, it has received its first training from socialism.

Now, however, it stands on its own feet and thee very idea of tutorship. It is rapidly getting away socialism, which makes vain to follow it and not to get out with it. efforts, Socialism was a monumental theory before it entered the arena of practical politics with Internationale. Marx, the General Federation ct German Workingmen and with Lasalle. It has its world system and philosophy; it own has its own ethics, esthetic and eschatology, and endeavors to form a.

frame for the existence of man new as an individual and a citizen. The association of workers has no other programme but pure selfishness, and it does not try to embellish it with any pretenses or make it appear beautiful by smooth words. It is individualistic in all its alms, which are to secure the well being of each of its members but it is socialistic in its methods. It has realized that isolated egotism chance of success and that to has no force its way through it must organize the masses.

This beats the late George Conan equipment by one car. and that was received with awe by the natives wherever they played.

Langley Michaels; Coffin-Reddington Company, wholesale distributors. less of what happens to all the others, seems a paradox.

but it is simply modern -the employment of dynamic laws of modern societies. That the association of workers does not pretend to believe in even the ghost of an Ideal is evident to the most simpleminded observer, even to the one who is only slightly superior to the animal world. workingman need possess only the most rudimentary intelligence to be able to understand you when you say to him: "The welfare of the community means nothing to you, therefore stop thinking of it and devote all your efforts to further your own personal welfare. to get all you can possibly lay your hands on. Get all the enjoyment you possibly can out of life, and do so with the least amount of work possible." Syndicalism also a philosophy, as has, indeed, every, movement of the masses.

It is a shameless hedonism, but syndicalism teaches and realizes the philosophy of enjoyment as Moliere's M. Jourdani speaks prose--without knowing it. When the workers began to organize by trades, the bourgeoise, who were masters of the law and had control of government administration, did not understand what was going on. It this evolution. It granted the laborers right to organize and unite.

authorized the grouping of the unions into a national organization, placed labor exchanges at their disposal and helped the work financially. I not blame the bourgeoise for this. do, do not want to say that they would have been able in the long run to refuse to grant the proletariat labor exchanges and subsidies. only say that the bourgeoise did not try opsyndicalism, because they did unpose what it meant or would derstand, eventually lead to. What is especially alarming about syndicalism is that it appeared and suddenly manifested itself in the same manner as has done every new force in history.

Those who make the attack are absolutely devoid of the inherited almost sacred respect for existing institutions, which is the most efficient The most symbols, formulas, bulwark of existing, society. rites and sentiments are ridiculed and recklessly thrown over by the assailants. They do not understand them and merely laugh at them.

All old sense of value is upset and the new masters establish their own way of valuation according their ideas. Thus is the relation syndicalism toward the State society as existing The syndicalists are and out for plunder and respect nothing their enemies venerate. may talk to them of country, of duty, of law and order, and they will only shrug their shoulders at these words which have no meaning to them. It is as if you had given Ghengis Khan the sealed charters of the cities to protect them against his violence.

But, among themselves, they maintain strict discipline. They despise the worker who will not join hands with them and I consider it a mortal offense if a workingman opposes a strike and takes sides with his employers against the syndi- Socialism 1s the intellectual work of learned men transplanted into the bosom of the masses. It is of ortificial origin, and this alone makes its success doubtful. Syndicalism, on the other side, is born among the masses. It is a natural product, and therefore has far better chances of holding out And becoming a success.

It would be foolish to expect to see this movement stop or disappear. Even with force you can do nothing against it. The workers have learned statistics. They count themselves and see that they are in the majority. They have learned to understand the machinery of the State.

They see that 8. few people issue orders, which the many obey because of their respect for old traditions. But those who obey are people of their own class. and if they ceased to obey, the State would be only a small of ministers and councilors without any more power than marionettes whom everybody would laugh at. Beauty Hints To the Beauts Editor: Can FOIL tell me of any harmless way to increase the bust? I do not want any more flesh on the hips or other parts of my body, but am SO fat chested I would try anything you thought would give me even two or three inches more development.

ANNA R. The only thing I know of that will develop the bust without increasing the size of the hips, or without putting on flesh where not needed, is a prescription put up by The Dr. Kelly especially for small and undeveloped breasts. It is the discorery of a woman physician whose practice was largely among her own sex and in most. cases increases the bust measure four to six inches in a month.

Send 10c to the Dr. Kelly Dept. 248 A. Buffalo, N. and they will send you a trial package of the treatment without charge.

This is said to be of great value in cases of arrested development of the bust and will give a full, beautiful form without anyone knowing that the treatment was used. Many mothers have told me that after the baby had been weaned. the breasts became flabby and shrunken, but the use of Dr. Kelly's prescription made them full and firm. Do not use pads or bust forms as they never look natural and have a bad effect upon the general health.

Neither would recommend ordinary fiesh builders or tonics, as they increase the hips and limbs and with the present styles the form should be slender everywhere except aL generously developed bust.

It is perfectly harmless, restores the natural color with one application, leaves hair soft and fluffy and its use cannot be detected.
