Mack, the popular and handsome young Irish comedian and Irish piper, with an ideal company of players and an elaborate scenic pro- duction, is an attraction of a kind that cannot fail to please the most | conservative theatergoer. The story of the play Is of double | interest from the fact of its locale be- ing in America as wel in Ireland. It deals with a young Irish-American mine owner from Arizona, named Dil- lon, who is paylng a visit 'to the birth- place of his parents, located on the shores of Killarney. He is made the guest of a Mrs Burke, who was an old friend of his parents, and for their sake all the nefghbors endeavor to outdo them- seives in giving him a good time. On the eve of his departure he de- clares his love for one of Mrs. Burke's daughters, who, though she recipro- cates his affection, refuses to go to America_on account of her mother's advanced age. Shortly after his return he receives a letter fro his sweetheart saying at through a brother of a friend. had learned of a young Irish cavalry sergeant stationed in Arizona named Burke who had fallen into disgra She imagines that it is po brother, who may still be liv requests Dillon to enquire.

Jan241 CAME SLOWLY INTO PORT, TWO TUGS ACTING AS RUDDERS American Line Steamship St. Louis, 24 Hours Behind Schedule—Mishap 1,200 Miles East of Sandy Hook. New York, Feb. 1—The American line steamer St. Louis, which lost the two lower sections of her rudder in the heavy seas twelve hundred miles from Sandy Hook, reached her dock late to- day, about twenty-four hours behind her’schedule. She steamed in by her twin screws, at reduced speed, and two tugs acted as rudders for her coming up the bay. There was no excitement among the passengers after the accident. They were kept in ignorance of the mishap until Friday, when a bulletin was posted in the saloon explaining the cause of the ship's slow progress. Capt. John C, Jamison said he and his first officer were on the bridge on Thursday afternoon when they noticed something had gone wrong with the steering gear. An unusually heavy sea had been running for hours, and the big ship’s rudder was often out of wa- ter as she dipped and tossed. “We slowed down and by looking over the stern gunwales, as the stern would life out of the water, we were able to make out that the two lower sections of the rudder were gone,” said Captain Jamison. “After the acci- dent we kept a uniform speed of fif- teen knots, steering with our propel- lers, and except for the resulting los: of time but little inconvenience was experienced.” Captain Jamison said there were storms and unusually rough weather all the way across. The St. Louis made a circle in mid- ocean to adjust her compasses just before the accident happened. It will be necessary to drvdock the liner to repair her rudders. Permis- sion' was obtaingd from, the govern ment authorllle:%cl use’ the Brooklyn nayy vard drydock. It is likely she will be taken there after her cargo has been unloaded, MIDDLETOWN HIGH SCHOOL Not Large Enough to Accommodate Classes. The members of the Middletown board of education have practically decided to call a special meeting of the to consider whether it is pest to erect un addition to the present high school building at a cost of between $25,000 and $30,000 or to refuse tuition to non- resident pupils and keep the present building as it s for the sole use of city residents. The matter has been agitated for some time and has been been made more acute bya communi- cation from Secretary Hine of the state board inclosing a report from Prof. Judd of Yale, who examined the schooi ast year. that the school is approved for non- ent tuition purposes for the cur- and " secondly, that they nd that the accommodations hool be enlargs proportionate tax for the the school be ra support of ed in tye city. CREDITOR HAD BEEN WORRIED. Over-Sensitive About a Debtor Who Took His Time to Pay Up. “Well, thank goodness, there's one man I can meet now without feeling uncomfortable,” the man said. “How's that?” asked his compan- fon. “Did you owe him money and settle up?” “Just the other way around,” said the first speaker. “He owed me a small sum of money for more than & year. “I met him a great deal, and sev- eral times he dunned himself about the money, but he never paid. After awhile I got so I didn't like to meet him, because I felt all the time he was going to say to himself: ‘T owe this, man money and he knows I ought to pay and still he doesn’t like to remind me.’ “Absolutely it got so I would go blocks out of the way to aveid him. 1 felt that he felt he never could men. tion spending money for anything when he was in my presence without my feeling that that money ought to have gone to pay the debt he owed me. “Maybe he didn't feel that way about it at all, but I felt that way, and now I'm glad he has p: up, so that in this detail at least I com- fortable in my mind. SNAKE SCARED THE EMPLOYES. Poisonous Reptile Among the Archives of Portugal's Peers, ~ Some time ago it"was reported in the press that while workmen were searching for certain documents in the archives of the house of peers sev- eral snakes appeared from among the dust-covered volumes. The panicstricken employes fmme- diately fled, and absolutely refused to return to such a dangerous occu- pation. The presence of the snakes has never been accounted for. Recently, however, all ments were carted to the the docu- derground archives of the ministry of the im- terior. Recently it was reported in the press that while the documents were being sorted out a flat-headed snake suddenly wriggled out, biting the em- ploye on the lip. It then disappeared among the piles of documents. Halt an hour later the man died in terrible agony. The body turned black and was horribly swollen. Notwithstanding the government of- ficials’ entreaties, all the employes re- fuse to descend to the archives. Busyness the Refuge of Small Souls. Extreme busyness is a symptom of deficient vitality; while a faculty for idleness implies a catholic appetite and a strong sense of personal identity. There are dead-alive, hackneyed peo- ple about, who are scarcely conscious of living except in the exercise of some conventional occupation. Bring these fellows into the country or set them aboard ship, and you will see how they pine for their desk of their study. They cannot be idle. Thefr Dature iz not gemerous enough, and they pass in & sort of coma those hours which are not dedicated to furi- ous mailing in the gold mill.
