BROODMARES flllR lEHER FROM TORUNU WHAT IS BEING MOSTLY DISCUSSED AT THE PRESENT TIME. Rev. John coburn at the Starâ€"Theatre Plays are censoredâ€"World's Bis- gest Cross~Toronto Growlng. When Rev. John Coburn donned whis- kers and heavy dark blue spectacles and bought a seat for the “mode” at. the Star theatre the other afternoon he made _a‘ hit with the young “sports” who frequent the burlesque houses. Even if he had cqme to spy on the performance. they 3,51- nnred his originality and the manner m which he carried out his plan. The show was entitled “Dante's Daugh-i here.” though in reality it, was a madam over performance of the "Darling‘s of} Paris,” which got. so much notorietyl through the exposures of Rev. R. B. St. Clair. Mr. Coburn was aware of this fact and decided to see the first performance. So he donned his disguise and headed for the gods. His blue glasses_ were so 0 a no he could hardly see, and he had di cu ty getting up the stairs The theatre at- tendants put. him in the back row and wondered why the box oflice had sold a ticket to a. blind man, as he seemed to be. Then they got. suspicious. They knew what “Dante's Daughters" really was ahd were on the lookâ€"out for clergymen GDICB like Mr. St. Clair, who visited the to- duction last year. They examined 1. eir blind man closely, discovered his disguise and tried to eject him. But he stood his ground, and they had to leave him for the whole performance. As stated. the prom! admired his fingeniouqness ‘and‘ pluc‘k. Mum-1v“ nu, u. .. -_.,_.___ It is possible the end of the Star theatre is in eight, though it is too soon yet to prophecy. An amalgamation of what they call the "wheels," that is the management of the circuits, sending out burlesque per- fo ancea, has resulted in the Star thea- tr , Toronto, being “frozen out," and after the present season it will no longer be able to get attractions of any kind from its m‘esent source.

While there are two burlesque theatres in Toronto. some comment has been caused bv the fact that the campaign for clean- im: up the theatres. which found its chief inspiration in Rev. R. B. St. Clair‘s reve- lations and charges, has been almost en- tirely directed against the Star. ' A Newspaper Censor. Since the appointment of Wm. Banks. 8911.. to the position of censor there have, however, been few compla. nts. Mr. Banks is a newenaper man of many years‘ standing. a prominent member of the Globe staff and foremost in various frater- nal and social organizations. He is a canny Scot, of quick perception and shrewd judgment, with a. will to back up his opin- ions. 50 when he says something has to be on out, it is cut out. And that's the end 0 it. include other cities and Toronto, and'he may be successful. In his work he is assisted by two other newspaper men. who devote Monday- af- ternoons and several evenings a week to visiting the various theatres and seeing that gverytbing is on the levgl. Much of the oeusor’s work does n ap-l pear on the urfaoe. For example. t is said that he virtually prohibited the ag- nearance here this season of Gertrude Ho - man. a. famous dancer. who reduces wear- ing apparel to a minnimnm. The story 13 that he put his foot down and said if she put on her act here he would put her In jail. Anyway she hasn't come yet. Mr. 0' Keofa's Illness. Mr. Eugene O'Keefe, who. at the time of writing. is stricken with a serious illness. is one of the prominent citizens of To~ ronto, and possibly the foremost Roman Catholic layman in the Province. St. Augustine Seminar , which is now rearing its walls on its an endid site on Scat-bore Bluffs. about ten miles east from the cor- ner of King and Yonze streets, will stand as? a :monnment to his pu_hllc spirit end Mr. O’Keefe is now a very old man. be- 3ins 86 years of age. but until his recent illness he retained unusual activity. In financial circles he is prominent, being President of the Home Bunk, but it is the business of brewing that has furnished him with his life work and has been the source of his wealth. Originally a. bank clerk. he organized in 1861 the Victoria Brewing Co.. afterwards merged in the present company. Though born in Cork County. Ireland. he has lived in Toronto since he was seven years old. Biggest Gross In the World. St. Augustine Seminary is to furnish a, training institution for the Catholic Church. It is to be surmounted by a. huge cross, 16 feet high, with a cross piece of 1 $ lost. This cross will be 509 feet above the level of Lake Ontario, as compared to the 328 feet elevation of the weather vane .on St. James‘ Cathedral staple. The icross is to be illuminated with eighty :strong electric lights and will, no doubt. the impressive. It is said that it will he Ithe largest illuminated cross in the world. In connection with the lighting of this cross there may be an interesting con- troversy. It is said that the present plans of the Church are to light it only on cer- tain occasions. governed by the Church celebrations. But there will. no doubt, be a demand on the part of sailors on Lake Ontario to have it lighted continuously, as it will be the most powerful beacon on the lake. If this is to be done, the Church will ask the Government to pay for the maintenance. And one can see the possi- bility of religious controversy which will arise if the Government pays for the light ink of a cross (or the Roman Catholic Church. It is so easy for this country to ,drop into fella-ions controversies.

Ministerial success does not imply a previous training as a professional poli- titoian. And that is a‘ good thing for the country to know. As Finance Minister he has not been revolutionary. And To- ronto thinks that outside Mr. Borden he is the strongest man in the Cabinet. Slgns of the Strain. His friends note with some anxiety that his hair is turning grey and'that the fur rows on his brow are deepening. Can- ada loads up her Cabinet Ministers with a. tremendous amount of detail and at the same‘ time demands crupulous exectitude in the despatch of each trivial item of business. And the position of Minister of Finance is probably the most outstanding illustration of these things in the country. German Substitute Is Fungus Growth on Gelatinc. One of the latest German patents protects a, method of prep‘aming a substance which it is asserted can be used as a, substitute for leather. This “all leather” substance is prepared from a special mildew or fungus grown on gelatine or a, simiâ€" lar substance. Various kinds of fungi can be grown by planting their spores on the gelatine surface and then keeping the surface wet. Some of the growths are colorless, others have red, brown, gray or even bluish tints, and all the lighter shades seem capable of taking dye. The leather produced up to now has been thin, very soft and rather weak. Few men of eighty-five years of age can boast of much else but poor health and falling strength. And'such was the con- dition of Mr. Benj. Marsh. who is known to every soul in the neighborth of his home at Lime Lake. Ont.
