women's Literary Union.

Mr.. Henry A. Clapp, the dramatic
critic, read paper Wednesday evening
before the Goethe Society of New York
on 1.-THE Theatre in Modern American
Life" Mr.. Clapp maintained that the
theatre of today is ruled by the masses
and that the masses are not an intellect
ual class. Their only amusement is the
theatre and they demand of it the most
trivial sort of entertainment Mr.. Clapp
pictured subsidized theatre, backed by
number of wealthy gentlemen and
managed by man of the highest liter
ary taste. He thought that by this sort
of operating the people could be forced
to accept, and in time be led to prefer
high class drama. The Theatre OF Arts
and Letters was we'll enough in its way,
he intimated, but it didn' t weigh enough.
Mr.. Clapp will read Henry w. to
the Women's Union of this city shortly.

THE AssYRiANs.
Like a Wolf on the Fold They Came
Down Upon Joseph Dyer's Plank Pile
A Queer Colony in Stafford Block

A quintette in the prisoners dock at
the police court yesterday forenoon at
tracted much attention. There was
nothing extraordinary in their crime.
They ihad been caught, according to
Officer Chases statement, carrying OFT
some plank from Mr.. Joseph Dyer's ship
yard But their appearance was very
extraordinary, being wholly unlike that
OF any other people brought before the
Municipal Court this year. Their names
were Peter Joseph, first, Peter Joseph,
second, Michael John, Moses John and
George Anthony. Their tawny skins
and black eyes proclaimed them people
of the Orient, while the shawls which
they wore about their necks, and their
tangled locks gave them a wild appear
ance. They were Assyrians from Bey-
root, large city on the Mediterranean
Sea. not far from Damascus. One OF the
five, brighter looking than the others,
told the PRESS reporter that his conpan-
ions had been in this country about five
| months. They live in Stafford block,
| where about fifteen of their nationality
have their homes.
| They had taken the planks to use Tor
| firewood, and the judge fined them three
dollars each and one-third costs. Two
of them HAD just bought state peddlers'
licenses and there was no money in the
possession of the party. The court re-
mitted their fine, requiring them only to
pay the costs.
! The police report that the Assyrians
have been generally quiet and law abid-
ing people, having very little trouble
with their neighbors or the police. The
men are absent much, travelling over
the state as peddlers, while the women
make living at home by doing little
peddling about the town. The women
followed the men when they were ar
rested and made quite a scene at the po-
| lice station. One or two of them were
Young. and if dressed in modern clothes
would be quite pretty. Often their
| wrists and hands are tattooed, and or
| the fingers of all of them are numerous
rings, The oldest woman in the compa-
nv. the mother of Michael John, wal
much distressed at what had happened
to her ssh. She besought Deputy Mar
shall McCallum with all forms of Orien
tai supplication, kissing the hem Of his
garment and attempting to kneel dowr
and kiss his feet. She evidently thought
that an arrest in America was as serious
matter as in Turkey.
| Although the general report Of thu
| Syrians is not bad, they do not seem al
improvement ON the old New England
stock as material for citizens.

ADAMS HOUSE RAIDED.
The Deputies, in Searching the Rooms,
Encountered Actors and Actresses
with Unfortunate Results.

Yesterday afternoon deputies Plum
ner, Gould, Sterling and Chute descend
ed ON the Adams House on Temple
street and seized alarge quantity OF lager
beer, some champagne and some sealed
whiskey. The liquor was found in room
81 on the third floor. The bartender,
Charles McKinnon.. was there, but ran.
Deputies Chute and Plummer chased
him into the street, but he esceped. The
officers came so suddenly that Officer
Gould was able to snatch two bottles of
beer from the hands of two Portland
men who were patrenizing room 81.
Messrs. Pinkham and Emerson, the pro-
prietors of the hotel, were arrested and
gave bail until this morning, when they
will appear in the municipal court. The
Baker Opera Company are staying at
this house, and in the search for the
barroom Deputy Plummer knocked at
the door Of room occupied by some
members of this company. Not getting
a response at once, he thought he had
| found the barroom and broke in the
door. One of the opera girls had just
come to open the door, and was hit
| by it and knocked backward. Another
member of the troupe, a man, was also
| in the room, and he at once made a
scene, threatening to shoot the deputy.
Finally the matter was explained, and al
though the indignant actor was not APP
peased, he understood the reason for the
astounding inroad.
When Deputies Chute and Plummel
chased the bartender down the stairs
considerable noise was made, SO that
guests at the hotel thought there was a
4 fire. A small panic followed but had no
serious results.
