VETERAN OF THE BOX OFFICE.
A Manager Who Helped Create Mary
Anderson Passes Away.

BOSTON March "a, 1S94-Mr. II. A..
McClenen, for many years the business man
ager of the Boston Theatre. died this morn
ing. He was well known throughout this
country as one of the most genial and effici-
ent men in the theatrical business. No man
was more highly esteemed; in fact, he was
beloved by all who knew him. His death
comes as a surprise, as he was supposed to
be in fairly good health.
Two generations Of theatrical men have
passed from the scene since Mr.. McClenen
made his appearance in the profession. The
bills OF Mr.. McClenen'E yearly benefits OF a
dozen to fifteen years ago furnish material
for very pleasant "reminiscences. Among
the most famous of all was probably that Of
the year 1878, when Mccullough and Mary
Anderson appeared together in '4The Lady
of Lyons" both coming hundreds OF miles
especially to appear. Another memorable
occasion was a year LATER when the same ap-
peared jointly in "Ingomar," which was
repeated three years later. Both these
famous stars had reason to be ready to do a
good turn for Mr.. McClenen when opportun-
ity arose, for he did noble service for them
when they were perfect strangers in Boston,
with but little or no power to draw patron
age The genius which both possessed, when
supplemented by Mr.. McClenen's wonderful
ability for directing public attention to a
good thing, was not long in winning the sub
stantial reward it deserved.
No small share of the credit for Mary
Andersons extraordinary popularity. and
success in Boston was due to Mr.. McGlenen.
When she first came to Boston, in 1877, en-
tirely unknown and unheralded, a talented
though inexperienced girl with decidedly
crude methods, she opened her engagement
with phenomenally small house, and played
week to anything but encouraging bust
ness. One week later, through the friendly
offices of Mr. McGlenen, she was given a
benefit, when she played Juliet to packed
house, which hailed her as the dramatic
wonder of the age. The poet Longfellow,
the Governor, the Mayor and many other
prominent citizens, lent the prestige of their
applause to the fair Kentuckian, and her
reputation was established.
Mr.. McGlenen's annual benefit had been
announced for next Monday night.

PEIXOTOs DEGREES.
An English opinion Against Their
Execution.
By Gable to the United Press.


LONDON, March "a, 1S94.-The Times
makes strong protest against the action OF
President Peixoto of Brazil in reviving the
Imperial decree IF 1888 and 1851, authoriz-
ing the execution without trial of per-
sons who have engaged in or aided and
abetted revolt Aside from the danger
that the revival of these DEGREES might be
applied to innocent British subjects, the
Times says, Peixoto's own record is not suf-
fciently clear to justify such action.
The CLAIMS of Peixoto upon Portugal for
the surrender of Da CANA and his compan-
ions, the Times continues, is also not indis-
putable, it being inconsistent alike with hui
manity and expediency to prosecute terror
ist policy before the revolution, which
is still active in the Southern Prov
inces, is wholly suppressed. The
Times contends that it is imperative
in the interests of all the countries having
commercial relations with Brazil that the
state Of excitement and insecurity that has
prevailed ever since the fall of the Empire
should be brought to an end In the project
of military autocracy, accompanied by
vengeance against defeated political oppon-
ents, it sees no promise of Improvement.

O'BRIEN DECEIVED.
Accuses His Wife of In
timacy With His Friend
Henderson.
SHE DENIES THE ACCUSATION.
Both Men are Members Of Lafay-
cite Council, Junior Order
United Mechanics.

The members of the Lafayette Council,
Jr. GUAM, are discussing scandal in
which two members of the council are play
ing the leading parts. The scandal has also
furnished genuine surprise to Lafayette
society, of which all the parties concerned
were members. The scandal was made pub
lie few days ago. when William ]. O'Brien
instituted proceedings for divorce from his
wife, Mrs. Harriet O'Brien. The papers in
the case were served upon Mrs. O'Brien,
Thursday, by Clerk Frank J. Higgins ot
Sheriff Toffey's Office. In his complaint
OBrien charges that his wife has been un-
faithful to him and that she has had i'm
proper relations with one William H. Hem
derson, a married man.
CAUGHT HENDERSON.
The one particular case upon which OBrieu
claims grounds for an absolute divorce was
that of February II last, when he saw
Henderson coming out of his apart
ments. He had suspicious previous
showing attention to another man, and al
though he had often watched for evidence
that would confirm his suspicious, he met
with no success until the day in question.
As soon as Henderson left his apartments
O'Brien went to his wife and asked for an
she had nothing to explain, and that
she never had anything but proper dealings
with Henderson. O'Brien charged his wife
with being untrue to him, and told her that
he would leave her. He kept his word, and
since then has not spoken to her. Mrs.
O'Brien took up her residence with her
father, Mr.. A. G. Gosline where she is
still residing.
O'Brien has not yet reached his majority,
and his father, II. O'Brien, will conduct his
case for him. OBrien was married in
November, 1890, and until few months
ago lived happily with his wife in the Lafay-
cite section. He was employed together
with Henderson in the Boynton Furnace
Works, and it was upon his invitation that
Henderson visited his house
BOTH FAST FRIENDS.
Henderson and O'Brien were warm friends
and when O'Brien joined Lafayette Council,
Henderson followed his example to show his
friendship for his friend
Henderson, it is said, has wife living in
Albany, N. Y. He is well known in the La
fayette section, where he is well
thought Of The residents of Lafayette who
know the O'Briens and Henderson
are very unwilling to believe that O'Brien's
charges are true. They place much con
fidence in Henderson, and say that he is not
the kind of man who would do what
U'Brien charges him with doing. Hender
son is nearly twice as old as Mrs O'Brien.
Mrs O'Brien says that she win tell her side
of the story in court and is confident that
she will be vindicated.
