- - - - The Nan in the Street.…
The Nan in the Street. Some of those who watch the signs of i the times in all sorts of likely ;And unlikely places are wondering if the theatre will finish, as it begun, in the church. St. Catherine of the gentle life may well be astonished if she is able to hear from her tomb that scenes in her !ife were the first dramatic performances ever given in England. They were embodied in one of the "Miracles and Mystery plays" two centuries before Edward II. sat upon the throne, and the clergy and the sweet singers of the choir .vere the first performers. These early productions took place in church pre- cincts, and) the recent Pageant held in the Bishop of London's grounds at Ful- ham was but a glorified development of the mediaeval drama.. Then followed the .r.ormance of similar plays in the open spaces of the towns, leading to the intro- duction of nippant scenes into scriptural plots and t'he withdrawal of the clergy from participation in the perform- ances. Later, the parish clerks of budding London acted in 1390 for eight successive days at Clerkenwell before the nobility and gentry. It is suggested that the performances of these worthies l$d to the naming of that delectable part of London—certainly the amateur actors 'clerked it well." However, it would appear that the actors did not find their theatre a bed of roses. It is recorded that stage properties were of the crudest design, and the salaries were most meagre. The imper- sonator of "Pilate" at Coventry received I only a few shillings in recog- nition of his undoubted abilities, while "Herod" and hia "wife" got even less. Thousands, or even hundreds, of pounds were undreamt of, and the gallery gods had peculiarly vulgar methods of marking their disapproval of the efforts made to please them. Cos- tumes were chosen with rude appro- priateness, but trap doors for the sudden appearance of devils were even then in frequent use. Drama was strikingly realistic, and gigantic maws were fixed up to represent the mouth of "the other place." Angels with gilded faces and white wings competed for applause with devils clothed in coarse hairy fabric, horns and tail not being forgotten. The usual theatre was on wheels, the lower part had to serve as a dressing-room, and so far aa can be gathered there was no censor like the present-day omcial to say aye or nay to what should be pro- duced. Satan;, as a low comedian, Pro.j yided -tyith a. bludgeon to add to th? weight of his performance, was a- great favourite, and he usually "brought down the house. Indeed, the gentlentan who takes the leading part in our modern production of t'he "Sorrows of Satan" is very small in his evening dress clothes compared with his prototype who stood the central, lurid ngure on the stage upon wheels while the weights in the barrels beneath him were rolled to resemble terrihc thunder claps and awful earthquake rumblings. He was also greatly admired when starch rattled in a wooden box tasti- ned that a hailstorm was rushing round. '"The Flood" was a play in tremendous favour because, as a rule. "Noah's" wife promoted much side-splitting laughter by insisting upon delivering a Caudle curtam lecture to her husband before she con- sented to enter the Ark. This scene usually .culminated in "Noa'h" soundly smacking his better half when she had at last embarked. It would almost seem that "Mrs. Noah" was the ancestress of die long-suffering "Judy," who, if rumour be true, is shortly to enjoy another period of popularity with her comical partner, "Mr. Punchy This sort of thing is well calculated to make Mr. Bernard Shav and other playwrights envious, and it is -lot surprising to know that they would uke to get rid of their hereditary foe, the censor.  ? Of course Have we too many coins? Of course iiot. We can all do with ?heavy pockets- nil of them, and bear the burden cheer- fu:!y. But I mean in the other sense. Threepenny-bits may be popular little discs with people who don't like putting a halfpenny in the bag on Sundays and cannot afford a sixpence. However, most of us are only too glad to seize the nrst opportunity of getting rid of the tiny coin when it comes our w ay, even to the purchase of something we do not want. The threepenny-bit might very well be called in, and few would mourn its disappearance. The florin and half- crown are too much like twin brothers to be really popular, especially among those who hnd it dimcult to dis- criminate between the two. The crown is too big and cumbersome, as well as the double norin. Only bakers and drapers have any use for the farthing, and he latter mnstty save themselves the worry of handling tins humble coin by making pin or needle packets do duty for the widow's mite. By all means let us abolish these coins, and may the Mint Master give us a plenitude of pence, shillings, and sovereigns! There are ups and down in more senses than one for those who would vie with! j the birds for the mastery of the air. We have oniy just nnishcd congratulating Monsieur BIeriot on crossing the Channel, and now we have the news that his best aeroplane—after turning a somersault and knocking half-a-dozen people down—has been smashed. It would seem that he was lucky-as well as some of the spectators—in getting kiff with a whole skinful of unbroken bones. Apparently, when flying gets more common and airships are used by suburb- anites to go up to business aeroplane accidents are to provide us with one of the liveliest columns in our daily press. In complete contrast to his colleague's misfortunes. Monsieur Latham succeeded in establishing a world's record in a flight of 96t miles at the average speed of 43 miles an hour. This comes as some compensation for his failure at the Channel trip, and the accomplishment points to the early use of the monoplane, for practical purposes, and apparently the day is not far distant when a million- aire, landing at Fishguard, will find his airship waiting at the harbour to convey him to his country residence or his town omce, as required. Truly, these aie moving times.

The Committee's decision disposed of the fusion scheme so far as what was known as the Ta,a'-Bute Bill was concerned, besides whK'h. the pxomote,rs had decided to abandon the Taff-Bhymney fusion scheme. AIJ the meiab'ers of the Conumittee were pre- sent, but the table set apart for counsel was de&erted. Mr. HonM-a.tus Ldoyd, K.C, who had it all to himself, briefly started tha.t the promoters had decided not to proceed with the TaN- IPhyniney Bill. Thare were one or two clauses in the other Bill which they deeired to pro- ceed with.

This is the measure which is ¡ to redeem the BUdget promise of improved roads for motor t.ra,Ric. The Chajicellor of the Exchequer made tiio spef<;h in introduc- ing it, but a memora.ndu.m, whibh wa.s circulatM atmongst m€tmb€.i's. ajid the text of which is given below, shows that it& main proposals atTe these: 1. The Treasury may take. gra.nts and Ioa.ns for forestry, agriculture, rural indus- tries, the construction of harbours and canals, the development of Ssheriee, and for otherwise promoting the economic develop- ment of the country. 2. A Ro&d Board of about 6ve members is constituted fo.r improving' the facilities for motor traffic. The Board ma.y m,aie ne?.' roads, or make grants to local authorities to enable them to do this, or to improve existing roads. New roads so made will be prim&rily con- :&ned to motors, and the.ro will be no speed limit. If other trafRo is allowed to use such I roads, a charge may be imposed. Part of the revenue oi the Road Boa,rd is provided by the duties on motcr-spirit and licenCEG. Further revenue is obtained by allowing the Board to acquire land in rural districts on either side of the new roads, and to .reap the increment in value.

MR. W. C. BOWDEN EXPLA!NS The Fina) Fixed for Cardiff An "Evening Express" representative called on Mr. W. G.

No furtther action wa.s taken until twenty minutes before the advertised time for the commencement, when. with the express per- mission of the umpires, whose word is law on all questions connected with the wichet. Nash brushed the wicket, but did not touch it with the roller. After a considerable amount of grumb- ling on the part of the Notts team the umpires decided that the wicket was fit %L play upon, a/nd the match was aooordingly continued at 11.15. In the evening- when Glamorgan had won the Notts captain, the Rev. H. Stann- ton, informed Mr. A. Gibson, the home cap- tain, that he had telegraphed a protest to the M.C.C. on the ground that the wicket had been tampered with It is significant that no action was taken until the match had been lost, and that any postponement would have boon in favour of Notts, who had nothing to hope for except a draw. j Apparently, the objection has not been ) sustained, as the Glamorgan County executive have received a telegram, thia morning to say that Glamorgan will meet Wiltshire in the final of the Minor Counties Championship at Cardiff on Mon- day, Tuesday, and Wednesday, August 30 and 31 and September 1.
