ASSETS ARE SMALL
Colorado Securities Company
Collapses With Liabilities
of 100000.
THE PRESIDENT DISAPPEARS
Widows and Orphans in the
East Heaviest Losers by
the Failure.

DENVER, June 10. Henry J. Aldrich,
president and general manager of the
Colorado Securities company, has dis
appeared and the creditors of the con-
Germ are making strenuous efforts to
ascertain his whereabouts. Inquiries
for the missing man have brought to
light one of the greatest sensations
known in Colorado. Five weeks ago
Mr.. Aldrich left Denver without CIV
ing notice of his proposed departure
and is now thought that he has gone to
Australia or the Sandwich islands.
The hasty exit of Aldrich is due to
the fact that warrant for his arrest,
based on the indictment of the grand
jury, was about to be served. The
charge is misappropriation Of funds in
trusted to his care. Mr.. Aldrich also
acted as treasurer of st. Johns cathe-
dral for 10 years and was recognized in
worth and
Deep Religions Character.
From 800 to 400 ranch titles are
clonded by the acts of Aldrich, who
diverted funds remitted by Eastern in
YES tors to make good the shortage in
maturing obligations occasioned by the
depreciation in real estate. He guar
anteed principal and interest on loans,
and then began the downward course
which eliminated in the appointment
of = receiver three months ago. Even
then there was no intimation Of any
thing wrong, and the disclosures only
came to the surface with the work Of
the receiver in scanning the books.
The heaviest loss falls upon the widows
and orphans in the East whose earn.
ings and savings were entrusted to the
company for investment at high rate
Of interest. One of the most distressing
cases is that of a widow at Blooming
ton, Ills.
She Cave Her Whole Fortune
to the Securities company, and is now
supported by the county authorities.
The debts will aggregate from $4OO, 900
to e5OO. 600 and every title issued by the
company has to be examined before it's
validity can be established.
1t is said that the failure Of the
Chamberlin Investment company,
which occurred here three years ago
and presented liabilities Of $500, 900 and
assets that afterwards realized $3.50.
will not be as bad as the final showing
of the Colorado Securities company.
w. F. Hinnan of Boston is here rep
resenting Eastern creditors. He says
the Equitable Loan company Of New
York is one of the heaviest creditors.

WASHINGTON, June l9.-Cardinal
Gibbons has taken to Rome the docu-
ments concerning the Knights CT Pyth-
las societies Of Fail River, Mass, with
a view to having the pope make rul-
ing of them. The case is a peculiar
one, as the FAN River societies are
made up very largely, If not entirely,
of Catholic members. They have built
up beneficial insurance system, the
benefits of which would be lost if the
members were compelled to abandon
the societies.

SIOUX FALLS, s. D., June 10. Judge

BIDS FAIR TO RISE.
Miss Nora O'Brien's Remarkable sue
cess with Mr.. Ha nford.

II was only natural that during tue past
week local interest should center at the
Academy, as Mr.. HanfOrd has gathered
around him a supporting company includ-
ing many Washington boys whose aspira-
tionS lie stageward. This encouragement
OF home talent is much 10 be commended,
and il is but fitting that the young men who
have received their training and dramatic
education here should be associated with
a man like Mr.. HanfUrd, who Is their friend
and counselor as well as their teacher.
The company includes such well-known
Washington boys a Bertrdm Temple, Rich
aul Buhler, Robert W. Smiley, Herbert
Prior. and others. Among these Mr. Buhler
especially has shown marked improvement
in his work since Ohe was last seen here,
and as Lucius in 'Virginius" he scored
quite hit in the scene with Mr.. Hanford.
Next to Mr.. HanfJrd, the work OF Miss
O'Bren in the leading feminine roles was
watched most closely by the audience.
This charming young actress has made
record for herself i'll the short time she
has been on the stage which is probably
upeQualcd In the theatrical annals OF this
country. This is Miss 0'Brien's first year
on the boards; in fact, today she but CON-
pletes the first nine weeks OF her first
season, and yet she is jointly starred with
such well-known actors as Mr.. Hanford
and Mr.. Spencer, and Is cast for the lead
ing parts in the Legitimate" repertoire.
\ year ago Miss Brien was school girl
at Sorettu Convent, near Niagara Fails, and
today she is successfully playing a series
OF parts that many an older and more
experienced actress has attempted dis
astrously.
The transition from the frivolous school
girl to the Woodworking woman was RAPID
and complete, but it has left Miss o Brlen
very simple, unaffected and altogether
charming young person. Miss o Brien made
her debut in Baltimore. which is her native
city, in a special performance of Romeo
and Juliet in which Frederick Pauldins
PLAYED Romeo and John 7. Malone Mercuuo.
1t was Miss O'Briens first appearance on
any stage, she never having even appeared
in amateur theatricals, and the next morn
ing the critics came out with anavalancheo
praise that would have turned the head OF
many an older person. Instead, the young
actress set herself to work by dilGient
study to perfect herself for professional
engagement.
This she has secured with Mr.. Hanford,
md if her work in this city is any criterion,
she has a very brilliant future before her.
As is perhaps natural, Miss O'Brien cou-
siders Juliet her fayorite role, while Desde-
mona and Portia claim her admiration.

ADA LEWIS AND THE FIZZ.
How the Beverage Became Too strong
for Her.

for Her.
Miss Ada Lewis, who takes the part of
MopIM aUL,, III uGuIoM SunoA elrp-ol-dhe'H
Jones'" is being quiZzed numerically
on account of a little incident that happened
during a performance the other night in
New York.
Miss Lewis impersonatcs an innocent
country maid who is sent to Vassar by her
parents, and returns to them an exponent
of the new woman, dressed in mans attire,
and with well-developed thirst for those
liquid refreshments that are supposed TO
belong only to mans estate. During the
second act of the play, the business calls for
her to drink glass of that seductive bever-
age, gin fizZ.
Miss Irwin, the star. in her desire TO be
realistic. insists that the fizz shall be made
of real gin, and prepared with real siphon
of seltzer 1t must be said, in fairness TO
Miss Lewis, that in everyday life she does
not enjoy such masculine decOctions. Night
after night she had protested against the
gin fizz and the cigarette, but Miss Irwin
was ineXorable.
II SO happened that the other night the
hottie of gin gave out. and the property man
failed TO have it refilled. The only thing
TO do was to use water as n substitute, ana
the fizz was manufactured in this way
After the performance Nj iss Lewis went to
Miss irwin and said, in the presence OF sew
eral members ofthe company:
MAY, this is becoming really serious.
T positiyely cannot go through with that
scene any more. Tonight that fizz was
stronger than ever, and combined with the
cigarette il made me so dizzy and III TACT
was afraid IL would be noticed IN front.
A musical shout of laughter quieted her
pro,est. and il dawned upon the mind OF
Miss Lewis, after a short explanation,
,hat the fixes were on her.
