This superb presentat the Colonial | popular players, Constance and Arthur Maude. It a story of an Englishman in South Africa who is rearing his two nieces, who are also orphans. Jess, the elder girl, prom- ised the dying mother that she would care ever and eternally for Bess, her sister. Later they are both in love with the same English officer, much to the distress of the rejected lover, ueller. The Boer war is shown in all its intensity with fully 1,000 sol- diers in which the lcver of the girls is captured, together with Jess. Plans laid by Mueller to 1 the lover, fail, | and then the uncle is captured and | Bess is given the choice of seeing her uncle die or marry Mueller. Jess solves the difficulty by killing Mueller while he sleeps, thus releasing Bess | and her uncle while she, Jess, dies | of exhaustion from an attempt to ach her lover, with the information. Bess and John are married and re- turn to England, but in a succeeding vision it is plainly shown that Jess is mot forgotten in their happines This splendid spsctacle is accompani by other high grade dramas complete the big bill, d which | Auditorium Program Today Contains | Many Excellent Features. The three acts seen on today's bill are of the high quality which can only be seen in the vaudeville pro- | grams at the Auditorium, as all are | high salaried artists, and it would be quite possible to put on six acts with- out spending any more than these three cost. _ Today’s show starts off with a big | bang, as the openinz number is the massive 101-Bison three reel war drama, The Mad Hermit It is not necessary to dwell on the specia features of this fi as everyone | }_{DOWS ‘what the 101-Bison name means in pi¢tures of this kind. Francis Ford, who produced the film, avas the orig- imal producer of big war dramas, he | \ | also plays the leading male character. Miss Grace Cunard, who wrote the scenario, also plays the leading fe- | malg role. This picture aione is worth | the price of admission. | PTho vaudeville will be s itsor & Daye, in their bright comedy skit, The Rube and the Actress which is a very ¢ <onclude their ever offering: they r act with their latest dance conception, The Holland Tango whic is something different in the dance line.

The third act The Three Cyclon- ians, who are known as the whirlwinds | of mirth on the whi ng wheels. There are tl]!iee men c sts in this act, | which is a comedy riot from start to finish. Their burlesque motorcyele { the funniest thing ever seen on the | stage. | _A very funny Gaumont comedy en- | titled Oscar Is in Search of a Wife, | will leave everyone laughing as they | say goodbye.

The company consists of | nineteen people, and every play is given a complete scenic production. The opening play tonight, Mildred, is one well worth while, and will greatly please the most critical audience. Louise Brown, the little leading wo- man will more than please. Madam ‘Wenda, the greatest mentalist, is one of the features. S e T WA COAL BUSINESS SOLD. J. O. Peckham Buys Out C. H. Has- kell and Will Continue Business. T. O.

For the last four years Mr. Has- kell has been secretary of the New England Coal Dealers’ association, an organization of nearly 600 members, and will continue in that office, For the last six months he has also been connected with the Magnesia Tale.

Through long, long yvears I walted, watching through every day To see her coming slowiy up through the sheltered bay; I knew her sails were weather woru, her sides were gray with brine, But -ail she held within her hold was surely only mine. She came not—Oh, she came not! And now at last'I know She lies upon the deep sea bed, full many fathoms low; She spoke no ship, she reached no port, but when the tempest woke She siowly sank, while over her the curling spindrift broke. No other ship have I to send, no hopes for precious freight; When white sailed fleets come gayly In no more I watch and wait; Never will previous cargo come from ports afar for me— I know not even where she lies, ship 1 sent to seal! —Ninette M.
