"SORRY HE THREW ‘ THE BER STEN Clyde Dance Says He Really Didn’t Mean to Shy It at Maud Lillian Berri, in the “Sultan of Sulu. INTENDED A COMPLIMENT. And so the Wrath of Frank Moulan, Is As- suaged and the Merry Box-Party the Offended Husband, » Uncident Is Closed. _ Clyse Dance was repentant to-day, but his repentance was scrambled with pride. Although he apologized in Jef- fereon Market Court for throwing a beer etein at Maud Lilian Berri while who was entertaining an audience in ‘Wellack’s Theatre, the apology did not appear to cause him particular pain. In Mr. Dance's set, where puttihg a black eye on a waiter and getting ar- rested for it 1s considered the helght of devilishness, pes {s distinction in do- ing something odd. Miss Berri was in court with her husband, Frank Moulan, of “The Sultan of Sulu." Young Mr. Dance, who comes from Nashville, Tenn., and has nothing but money and time to spend, was accompanied by his friend, John Hoagland, of No. 41 West ‘Twenty-seventh street, No one could tell by looking at Mr. Dance and Mr. Hoagland that they had been up all aight. Mr. Moulan and Miss Berrt were full of indignation, but, when informed that Mr. Dance was real sorry that he had thrown the steln, they could not stand the comedian } upon their first intention of sending him @ of the opinion that they to Sing Sing. Nevertheless it was poor gatisfaction for them to get up so early in the morning and go to a police court) breakfastless only to be content with an | apology. Another Woman in the Case, According to young Mr, Hoagland it may be that professional jealousy is tok of the stein-hurling eplsode. It may be, Mr. Hoagland says, that un @ctress who was in the box with him- eelf, Mr. Dance and F. Tennyson Neely, the publisher, persuaded the young man, trom Nashville to seek tg embarrass Miss Berri, explained Mr. Hoagland, “Clyde hasn't been in New York very long and he Isn't as conservative as we New Yorkers. His Southern chivalry prompis him to do anything to oolige @ jody and if he had been asked to throw’a bunch of bananas or a polo pony on the stage I guess he would have done From the story of the occurrence as told by the principals it appears that young Mr. Dance and his friends were were - better than the peopie paid’ by Co!

Burke, chaplain of the convent was the cele- | brant of the mass and the vell was given by Father eHnry O'Keefe, of Bal- timore, now attached to the Church of the Paulist Fathers, in this city. From childhood Miss Goff expressed @ desire to undertake the work of the! church, and her parents constantly tried to dissuade her from her purpose. When she hadsrenched mature years and her determifation continued strong, the dis- APRolnfiment fet she Recorder and his wife was keen, Miss Ines had been giyen a fine musical education and her father had hoped that in his declining years she would briehten his home and that she would perhaps take an important place in soclety. But last November Miss Goff started upon her novitiate in the Ursuline Con- vent, and then, seeing that further op- position would be useless, her parents became reconciled to her plan. They attend the services to-day. After three years of a novitiate Miss Goff becomes a nun and makes her final vows. She has entered an order which is very severe in its discipline. The Ursu- line is known as a closed order, and while she may teach Jn the convent she may never leave its walls except to be transferred to another Institution.
