A BEAUTIFUL PLAY.
Shakespeare's Twelfth Night" as
Given by Marie Wainwright.

Shakespeare Twelfth Night" as
Given by Marie Wainwright.
One of the prettiest stage pictures
often vouchsafed the public is that of
Marie Wainwright as Viola in Twelfth
Night" and it was thoroughly enjoyed
by large audience at the Metro
is one of the most delicious
of all the Shakespeare comedies.
1t contains the greatest number of
strongly marked comedy characters,
while the serious Interest is especially
tender, true and touching. The comedy
was written at the time when the great
master was in the very fullness of his
powers. Strangely enough, Twelfth
Night is the only play of Sbakespeare'S
of the production of which there is a
contemporary record. 1t was first acted
before the barristerS of the Middle
Temple on CandiemaS, 1902. The main
theme-the exact resemblance to each
other of two people-had been previous
ly turned to account by Shakespeare in
The Comedy of Errors" but that is
almost pure farce, and has none of the
poetry and pathoS of Twelfth Night"
Viola. its heroine, is the most
dainty, the most delicate and
the most wholly lovable of all
the great poets comedy herOines. And
it is these that appeal most nearly to
our hearts. We admire and respect his
tragic queens, but it is Viola. Rosalind
and Beatrice who nestle close to our
hearts, and whom we would have our
wives and sisters resemble. Viola is
the sweetest of the three. She has the
spirit of adventure that marks Rosalind,
but not the mannish swagger that char
acteriZeS the latter. Beneath ViOla'S
transparent disguise the loving, suffer
ing woman is always to be seen. Viola
has wit and occasional glimpses of fun
and .humOr, but she does not court
war of words or seek the keen en-
counter of the tongue as Beatrice does.
Viola feels her love is hopeless, yet
somehow she does not quite despair,
and, though the tears flow freely, one
feels that the smile is not tar away.
Marie Wainwright gives a touching
and affecting Interpretation of the char
acter, and her upport-practically the
same as she had when last here's
strong and capable. The audience
roared over the carousal scene and re-
pressed tear at the affecting tale of
Violo's love. In all it is one of the best
and most perfectly-rou nded Shake
spearean presentation st. Paul has seen
for some time.

DEATH ON THE RAIL.
Mystery Concerning a Killing by
the ST. Paul & Duluth.

Benjamin Levy, farm hand who ar
rived in st. Paul three days ago from
Sioux City, was found dead at Z o'clock
a. m. Yesterday four miles below Glad
stone. The body was first discovered
by the crew Of an outbound freight over
the st. Paul & Duluth road. 1t lay in
the center Of the north-bound track,
face down ward. Coroner Quinn was
notified at once, and he ordered the
body brought to st. Paul. An inspec-
ton of the body on its arrival here re-
suited in its Identification as the above,
by means of letters and papers. One
letterwaS written by a friend of Levy's
named Charles Tempel, from Russell
vile, Or, on March 81. Levy received
it in Denver on April 2. Only go cents
in cash was found in the mans peck
cts, but draft for $40 signed by him
was among his papers. The letter from
the man Tempel shows that Levy con-
templated going TO Russelville TO en-
gage in the fruit growing industry with
the writer. The theory is established
that Levy may have come to st. Paul
with the intention of taking the North
ern Pacific route for his destination in
Oregon. The supposition is that Levy
had gone from here to Saltwater, and
was stealing a ride back on a freight
when he fell from the train. A strange
fact is that there are no Commissions on
the body, no bones are broken, and
there is no apparent cause of death.
Among the other possessions of deceased
found on him were rosary, mouth
organ, bundle of letters enclosed in
large envelope and addressed to another
party. Coroner Quinn will hold an au-
toDSy this morning.

generally criticised as containing statements
contrary to the teaching and spirit of our
confession of faith. and
whereas, This address has also been actu-
ally made the occasion of complaint in the
general assembly by at least four presbyters:
resolved, That committee consisting of
seven persons be appointed, to which the said
ADDRESS snail be referred for careful consid-

SHE'S AFTER HIM.
A Wife Seeks to Bring Her Erring

A Wife Seeks to Bring Her Erring
Husband to Time.
William Hommer, a dealer in picture
frames, doubtless has a penchant for
incongruous surroundings, if the story
as told by his wife as to his home fran
ings is true. The picture she reveals of
the home is one that has reflected many
a tragedy, and the frame thrown around
it by the dealer in frames is one repui
sive to society, and productive of un-
fathomed misery. heartburning and dis
grace. Hommer has a store on East
third street, and sells pictures and
frames. His wife went to the county
attorneys Office few days ago, related
her pitiful story and asked aid i'll her
distress. The substance of her story is
that some time since her unmarried sis
ter came from her home in Ohio
to hide her shame from her parents
there. Some time after that, Mrs. HON.
mer said she discovered that her huS-
band was unduly familiar with her
sister, and family scene ensued. The
husband sold out his store, which was
then On West Third street, and said he
would go to st. Louis and start up IN
business. The wife was sent to her
parents, in Ohio, on visit, together
with the three-year- boy. 1t was
agreed that the husband should send
for his wife again when he started in
business, and the family troubles would
be condoned. The wife remained at
home for some time, but, not hearing
from her husband, she came back
to st. Paul, thinking he might
have returned to this city. She
found that he had come back
and opened store OH East Third street.
She confronted her husband one day.

SAW THE ELEPHANT.
The Carmine Experience of a Hay
seed and a Siren.


The much-abused ''man from the
country" got it in the neck again Sun
day night. George Haynes, middle
aged and mild-eyed man of rural as
pect came to st. Paul Sunday. He
promised to be good when he left home,
and doubtless meant all he said, but
Julia Vank, bold brunette siren
and SorcereSS came across the
cOuntryman'S path, and be fell.
Mr.. Haynes had $3.50 in his jeans when
he came to st. Paul. Yesterday he
hadn't the price of hash house break
fast, and there were fifteen miles of
scared and withered prairie grass be-
tween himself and home. The gentle
man from the country reported his loss
at police headquarters. He told the
story in one long sentence with a rising
infection. The main facts are OF a
rather stereotyped flavor. When
Haynes met Julia she persuaded him
that there were things in st. Paul totally
undreamedof in his simple philosophy.
He asked her whereabouts the ''doings"
of which she spoke came off, and the
lady replied that she was not old
enough to know, but would introduce
him to a man who would pilot the party
on an expedition against time and beer
at an exorbltant price per bottle. Then
the drop curtain rolled up to slow
music, and William Witch, 1.-The Crane"
all-around rounder and general crook,
appeared on the scene. He in
turn introduced Lottie Mitchell, who
formerly travelled with an operate COM
pany and wore the now interdicted
pink leggings. Then a hackman was
sworn in, and the giddy quartette went
out into the city. According to Haynes
story he saw enough to fully justify
everything told him by the naug hty
Julia, and the last he can remember he
was still viewing the elephant at close
quarters in house on Cedar
street. He awoke very early
yesterday morning, and, as already
stated, he was minus his shekelS and
plus very bad head. On the strength
d. of the countrYman's description the
other three members of the party were
arrested yesterday by the detectives.
Witch accuses the women of having
robbed the granger, and they in turn
accuse him. There will be fun in the
police court this morning, and a sequel
to the story here given.

dollar or two from time to time, but
not enough to keep her from actual
want. She alleged that she learned
that her husband is still intimate with
her sister. She met him yesterday at
the court house door and told him she
was going to prosecute him for his mis-
deeds. She then went to the county at
torney's Office and a warrant was issued
upon her affidavit for his arrest on the
charge of adultery. When a deputy
sheriff went Yesterday 10 serve the war
rant the store of Hammer was found to
be locked, and it was said that he had
packed trunk and gone to the depot
with a view of leaving the city. The
wife is without means and is subject
OF charity for the barest necessaries of
life. She is a prepossessing young
woman, and has bright three year-old
boy.

Parents AnXiously Searching

A st. Paul Siren Shows the

AgPiculturiSt.
The Wife Of a Third Street
Frame Dealer Is Hot
After Him.

Hattie Carter and Lizzie Lucas, the
former residing at S11 Watson avenue
and the latter on the corner of Seventh
and Bay streets, have been missing
since o'clock yesterday morning. Miss
Lucas is sixteen years old and very
handsome girl, while the Carter girl is
fifteen years old and of equally at
tractive appearance. Yesterday morn,
ing an advertisement appeared in the
GLOBE for girls to fill positions at the
confectionery establishment of j. Il.
Roach, AT Jackson street. The two
girls went in company to answer
the advertisement. Their applica-
tions were not considered, the places
having been filled on their arrival.
Since that time neither of them have
been seen. G. S. Lucas, father of one
of the missing maidens, called at the
central police station last night at 1O:3O
and requested that search be made, as
he was convinced that his daughter had
fallen into bad hands. The father
stated that, although he was formerly
employed by the city, he has been idle
during the greater part of the winter,
and his family have been put to dis
agreeable straits as result of their
poverty. His daughter has been, up to
last Saturday. regular attendant at
the Adams school, and Hattie Carter
is her chosen companion. The two
girls are spoken of by those
who know them, as modest and we'll be-
haved. Mr.. Lucas says he can vouch
for it that his daughters absence from
home is not voluntary. He knows the
Carriers, and is as sure of their girl as
of his own. Lizzie Lucas left school
week ago, saying she must get some
thing to do to aid the family. Her last
words as she left the house were to ex-
press hope that she would be success
full in her mission and thus be able to
earn some money. Both the families
are frantic at the state of affairs. anG
both equally convinced that the girls
have been detained by foul means.
