Denmsn Thompson's Great Play, 1.-TWO
SistePs.n

Sisters"
Denman Thompson and George Ryer's great
play. 1.-TWO Sisters" viii be presented at Seattle
opera house tonight and tomorrow night. Fol-
lowing Is the story of the play: Mary and Mar
tina Howard, two country girls. drift to New
York city in search of work. Martha, the eldest,
IL fi;rt-iusf the opposite of her modest sister.
Vending their way toward their destination,
chance sends over the same pathway thought
less youngvillain known as Handsome Harry"
whose attentions are of such an impudent char
acter that the girls seek shelter in an unpreten-
tious hotel that lies nearly opposite the home Of
their pursuer. In this hotel lives our hero
tana. where he has been for twenty years fortune
hunting.
He sees the girls when they enter the hotel;
sees Harry Horton az he follows them: takes in
the situation at . glance, and tries to separate
the unwholesome fascination that has taken
hold Of them; but hot blood is rebeliious. and.
instead OF cooling, il famed itself into q fame
II started ms fancy, grew into . resistless pas
sion, which fed on promises that ended in
shame.
Instead of taking her to his heart wife, he
took her to his lodgings his mistress. Then
came the days of repentance, remorse and sep
aratiou. She wandered afar. The sunshine of
her life departed, and the lamps of desolation
were dimly lighted in the distance
Tufe 10 nef unHoly love- tnere came n babe TO
chide her. while she caressed it. She saw it
growing weaker each day, and 1t died in her
arms before il had anything but love to give for
its birthright.
Deep distresses came upon Martha, and she
could only look for rest under the dark waters
The big heart of Hiram Pepper was touched
by the innocent face of Mary Howard, and his
life was heavy with love for this pure young
girl; he, however, bore his burden alone
silently, faithfully. But Cupid tripped up his
heels one summers night, and he Numbered
into telling her of his love, when he found
mate-honest. pure and sincere.
Martha's pilgrimage TO Mary is full OF pathos.
She went that she might seek forgiveness and
go to rest peacefully. She did not meet angry
faces and clenched hands driving her back in
the darkness. She found faithful, watching
hearts waiting for her.
She was made to believe that men had as much
right 20 forgive IS God, and she was again
living, breathing woman that had q right to
exist Harrys father heard of his sons treach-
cry TO this simple girl. and he turned from HIM
and Harry Horton became a parricide, drifting
lower and lower each day until the quick poison
of retribution handed him back to the earth he
had frowned upon.

JOE SHEA AS A HERO.


Joe Shea, the shortstop of the Seattle club.
posed as a hero last evening by saving one of the
Japanese equilibrists, performing in the audi
forum of Cordrays theater, from what might
have been very serious accident
The Seattle team attended the theater in a
body as the guests OF Manager Cordray, and oc-
cupied seats in the front row in the auditorium.
Among the remarkable feats of the Japs is the
balancing OF one of their number, young boy,
on the top OF a ladder, balanced on the ex-
banded chest of one of the older performers.
Just at critical point in the course OF the per.
Torrance the Jap holding the ladder lost con-
troll OF it, and it started to topple over into the
audience. The minute il began to waver the
quick-eyed shortstop. with great presence of
mind, sprang forward and caught ii. saving the

The Conservatory quartette, recently organ
lied, is doing some excellent quartette work.
The two sopranos, Mrs. Frederick Jewell Laird
and Mrs. Miller, are well known professional
vocalists, and their beautiful and well-trained
voices give the point and coloring so necessary
to quartette sclections The contraltos, Miss
Zillah Barnes and Miss Emily J. Carkeek, al
though young singers, have rich, clear voices
and for the time they have been studying do re-
marksble good work. The first appearance of
the quartette at the twilight Lenten concert was
an unusual success, the marvellous blending of
tones producing that highest pleasure that only
the best art can produce. The quartette will
furnish two numbers at the second twilight con-
cert given by the choir of the First NJ E. church.

ELECTRIC CAR orr THE TRACK.
It Rams on Trestle and Rolls Over
No Persons Injured

An accident which might have resulted seri-
ously occurred about noon, yesterday, to car No.
II on the Fremont electric line. The car had
Jnst rounded the curve at Eighth and Ienora
streets, aud was passing over the trestle which
croases stretch of low ground at height of
about three feet at that point, when it suddenly
leftthe track and bumped along ON the ties
Tor . few yards. II finally came to
standntil. with one side hanging over the edge
Of the tresflc The passengers, OF whom there
were twelve, all moved to the upper side Of the
car. and their weight kept it balanced and thus
pfevented IL from rolling over As soon as It
stopped they all dismounted. and escaped
without injury beyond few scratches The
car then rolled over the side of the trestle and
fell on It's side in the mud, the steps being
broken Of the under side
Tho accident is supposed to be due to the
spreading OF the wheels on the axle, so that they
LETT the rails. Fortunately the car was an open
one, and the passengers were thus able TO leave
Il with ease and rapidity, and il was only
slightly damaged. II was going slowly on
straight track, and therefore came to stand
stu before 1t was Off the trcstle. If II had been
going rapidly, or had been on a curve II would
probably have gone over with jump and caused
serious injury to some OF the persons on board.
