serted the train there and took ref
uge in the swamp, where they spent
the night. Engineer Root lies at his
home at White Bear, too badly in
jured to be interviewed. He is bad
ly cut by broken glass but his worst
injuries were from inhaling hot air
and smoke.
As night closed in the people be-
gan to come out of theirhiding places
and made their way over the hot
embers of their burned city. They
were absolutely dazed by the catas-
trophe and the night was spent in
an endeavor to find relatives. The
fire had spent itself and the air was
filed with smoke. Two huge heaps
of coal, which marked the location of
the Duluth coal sheds, were blazing,
and by this 6tful light people wand
ered about picking out the places
where six hours before their happy
homes stood. The fact that so many
had escaped by train added to the
anxiety of those whose friends and
relatives were not to be found, while
it furnished at the same time basis
for the hope that they were in safety.
When morning broke few ener-
getic spirits began organizing the
work of recovery of bodies. J. w.
Sargent, passenger conductor of
the Duluth road, organized volun-
teer crew who manned two hand cars
whose capacity was increased by the
use of plank. They vent up the
Duluth track north and picked up
| thrty-one bodies between the river
and Skunk Lake. Citizens volunteer
ed and harnessed up available vehi-
cles saved in the gravel pit, and
went out to the swamp across the
Grlndstone. They brought in nine
ty-six bodies. There was neither
time or opportunity to observe the
sacred forms usually surrounding
death. The excitement of the occa-
sion, the horrible experience through
which the living had passed, and the
more horrible form in which death
had come to the lost, temporarily
blunted the finer sensibilities and the
dead were heaped high in wagons
and laid in piles at the cemetery
among the smoking embers and
stumps that surrounded Gods acre.
Coroner Cowan directed the digging
of two huge pits in which interment
will be made tomorrow.

StockweIPs Theater.

Stock wells reOpened last night to a very
large and very enthusiastic audience. Both
the size and the enthusiasm of those
present were we'll deserved, judging by
he merits of the play ana the manner of
its presentation. Growers Evolves OF
New York" was last produced in this city
over a year ago, and scored a great sue
cess. 1t is bright. snappy and clever gen.
orally; it has enough bright and strong
lines to sfford hours of enjoyment
and wealth of incident that would stock
half dozen plays. Some of the scenes
are exec ptionally striking. particularly
the Jardin Mabille Bowery scene in the
second act and the fellow oil yard in the
fifth.
The cast last night was extremely
strong. The star OF the cast was Leonard
Grover Jr. who played the part of Robin
O'Malley, an Irish lad, with great fidelity
In lmpersonation and with his usual versa
tile ability that makes success of every
part he has assumed here. George Os-
bourne had the part OF coautry farmer,
and was, of course. equal TO all its exigen-
cies, playing 1t with the care and skill
that have made him one OF the leading
character actors in the country Edmond
Hayes was green goods" operator and
all-around hard" character. and did his
art very well. Francis Powers, as the
gentlemanlv villain, also made hit, as
did Clydes Hess and the others of the 10 ale
cast generally.
The leading female role was taken by
Camille Cleveland, a new performer at
this house. who was fully up To the &C.
mands of sympathetic and tender role
May Noble was the Maude Filters of the
cast. and certainly displayed a great
deal of talent. Nellie Young as the blind
girl was innocently sweet and Fannie
Young made her usual success. The
other parts. male and female-and the cast
is very long one-were decidedly good.
and the performance as whole was we'll
rounded and finished.
The scenery and effects merit great
deal of approval. The management has
spared no pains and no expense to MAKE
the production a notable one and the sue
cess of their efforts is marked. A good
chorus furnishes music through out, aud a
German band in the second act furnishes
a good deal of fun. The perfor m ancs GER
talnly deserves large houses during its
run, for so good a production has rarely
been seen here at popular prices.

Miss Ellen Terry's Ace.

People who crave to know thu ages of
calebrities-and particularly of ladies
who are celebrities-will be glad to note
that Miss Ellen Terry has confessed that
she was born in 1913, although few of her
sdmirers would judge from her ap-
paarance that she is 46 years Of age. This
piece of biographical Information was
given TO an interviewer from the New
York Weekly who has been plying her with
questions. Novices in acting will be
Interested to note that the popular actress
was by no means a great success as re-
CARDS her first attempts. Mrs. Kean, when
Miss Terry was rehearsng the part of
Prince Arthur. said to her: "Do you think
you would 60 on like tina If your eyes
were going to be put out? Why, you
would make more fuss If you had lost
your DOLL" At length Miss Terry was SO
vexed with herself that she burst into
paroXvsm of crying That's it," was
Mrs. Kean's comment, and the crying vas
repeated at the next rehearsal with sue
cess. With Mrs. Comyns Carr's assistance
Miss Terry. it appears. designs all the
Costumes she wears on the stage. This is
important. she thinks, as in her opinion a
dress is capable to some extent Of indicat-
ing the character of the woman who
wears it.

FALLEN FROM GRACE.

A Member of the Y. M. c. 4. Steals
From His Fellow Members.
Frank Handley, member of the Young
Mems Christian Association. was arrested
last night by Detective Gibson aud booked
at the City Prison on the charge of petty
larceny.
A few DAYS ago some one forced open
the locker or one of the members, while
he was taking bath, and stole S45 out OF
his pockets and a diamond pin from his
scarf. The door had been forced open
with Jimmy" and the fact that
burglar had gained access TO the bathing
rooms caused CONSERVATION among the Oh
hceTs and members.
Handley was seen to leave the place hur-
riedly before the theft was discovered. and
suspicion fell upon him. His movement
we're closely watched by the officers of the
association. and yesterday he was seen
haunting the bathing-roOms. A member,
who was having BAH, reported that his
locker had been forced open and S11 had
heen taken out OF his pockets and his
scarf and pin were missing. Handley left
the place as hurriediy as on the previous
occasion, just before the theft was dlscoy-
cred.
His locker was opened and brand-new
jimmy" was found IN it. 1t exactly fitted
two lockers. Police headquarters was
gifted and Detective Gibson arrested
Ha ndley last night. He confessed his
guilt and handed to the detective So
scarf and pin, being the products of the
latter theft less 81. He said he had pur-
dealer, but he would give no reason as to
what temp ed him TO fall from grace.
He is young man of good education
and was not in need OF money.

REOPENING OF THE BUSH.
Presentation of Hoyte's Version of
&" The Woman in White.''


The reopening of the old Bush street
Theater, situated on the thoroughfare the
name of which it bears, was accom- plished
last evening In the presence of but slim
attendance we regret 10 state. Very hand
some adornment was made of the audi
torium. Christmas greenery was every
where present and the balsamic scent of
the spruce, the fir and the birch pervaded
the air. The pillars were garIanded with
this udoriferous foliage, and embracing the
footlighted portion Of the stage was the
greeting. "a Merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year." wrought in flowers.
All this was very seasonable, very pretty
and refreshing to The eve.
But we do not think Mr.. Hoyte's version
of Wilke Collins famous novel as 'The
White Woman" was quite as agreeable to
the intelligence of the audience. 1t was
materially different from dramatic ver-
sions OF the same book we have seen here
before, Mr.. Hoyte. the adaptor, was the
Count Fosco of the cast. There was too
much of Fosco Everything was subordi-
| ated to the willy Italian conspirator, and
it was plain throughout the version was
made for this purpose. at the expense of
the peculiar sinuosities of the plot-a
quality for which Collins was
noted in the literary period when
| he wrote. There was nothing of
the quiet, oily manner we would look for
| in the designing Italian-the velvet glove
covering hand of iron. His style was
loud. declamatory and positive. as IL he
were sure of his position against all odds.
aud proposed to maintain ii. We EXPECT
the Machia vellan quality with hidden de-
| signs in such a character not busterer
with avowed purposes. Until Mr.. Hoyte
recognizes this fact, and tones down. his
version will go for nothing. The dual part
of Ann Catherick andl Laura Fairlle, as
sumed by Miss Lillian Beddard. was
played in a quiet, subjective way, the
scene in the Iunatic asylum being the
best of it. Miss Kate Eckert as Marion Hal
comb, Laura Fairlie's half-sister, a woman
Fosco was never tired of praising for her
shrewdneSs, had the most conspicuous
part in the feminine line of the cast. and
discharged its duties admirably; but the
rest of the women were like lay figures.
For the matter of that, Mr.. William
Brewer as Mi. Walter cartwright may be
| placed in the same category. and also Nj r.
| Charles Edmonds as Sir Perciyal Clyde.
| Something ought to be done to check the
omnipotent and omnipresent Italian, other
wise the title OF the play ought to be
changed to Count Fosco," and allowed to
go at that. The same bill will be given TO-
night,
