OUR. MOTTO m.J I lj lULJ by Lucy Jeanne Price i New York. Coney Island felt like the exhibitor o fllie girnffo, the other day. You remember the oll story of the man wth fifteen children who In quired how much It would cost to take them all la to see the circus animal. The tlckot seller surveyed the mob in amasement, and then said, "Com on In free, and let the Rlrnffo look nt you!" Well, delenatton or HtBhnrm In knee breeches making the rounds of Coney Island was as curious and tlntrlpuluK sight to the barkers aud crowds of Coney as the "shoot the chutes" and "roly poly" wero to tho IllBiions. Tho Most Reverend Edward Hutson of tho Island of Antigua, Archbishop of tho W'oet Indies," adjourned the synod of the hlorarchy of tho Proylnce of the West Indlesfl which Is holding a six day's session hero, nnd ho and tho BiBhops made the excursion to Coney They made a completo round of nmuse ments, ate "hot dogs" and threw b.ise balls at the dummy figures, all In their knee breeches with loggings, clerical coats with black silk nprons, and low round fett bats with three tassels dangling from three separate corners. NY Wooden shoes! One never thinks of their bolng worn any more, certainly not on Manhattan Island. Hut there Is an excellent market here for thorn, according to tho mistress of a French Shop.

"They are worn In kitchens, that's all I know," the uncommunica tive Frenchwoman declared. NT It was a Joy to see Wilton Lackaye in "The Monster," 'not only because he gives an Interpretation of an al most Incredible character In this thriller or thrillers, but because It was no delightfully reminiscent of his por trayal of Svcngall, In his old success, "Trilby." Ho Is the same suave mystic except that he threatens to cut with the surgeon's knife and electric cur rent this time, rather than pierce with his eyes ,ns ho then did. McKay Morris, on eof our best actors of tho "natural ist lc" school. Is also In tho cast. It seems a long way from his part In "Main Street" last yenr but as alwayB, ho gives a finished performance. I wondered Just what would have hap pened if a match had been struck in tho nudlonce during the performance so tensely wa severy one In witnessing tho events on the stage.
