ADJUSTMENTS.
Acsd4my OF Music.

Lewis Morrison will appear at the
Academy of Music the coming week in
two plays, "The Master of Ceremonies
and Faust" THE Master of Ceremo-
Mes is new TO this city, and therefore
interest centres in that production.
Faust has been seen here before and
the good impression left by it's previous
visit is still fresh in the minds of local
theatre-goers. That Lewis Morrison is a
finished artist no one will seek to gain
say. To prove that he is versatile 1t is
only necessary to see his Mephisto In
Faust" and tuart Denville in "The
Master of Ceremonies" for they are char
aeters particularly at variance.
THE Master of Ceremonies" will be
presented on Monday, Tuesday, Wednes-
day and Thursday evenings and Wednes-
day matinee. Faust Friday and Satur-
day evenings and Saturday matinee. The
supporting company is especially strong
individually and collectively.

Chicago, June S.-A match careless
ly dropped by one OF the workmen in
the fireworks factory OF NJ. shure at
the corner OF West Van Buren, and

plosion tuesday evening. 1t was
shortly after the closing time of the

gone home, otherwise the loss vi life
must have been very heavy. AS II
was number OF the employees We're
badly hurt and the flying rockets ana
candles struck several people who
were passing on the street cars and
sidewalks. The force of the explosion
was so great that nearly all the Win
dows in the block We're demolished and
the Shure building which was a four
story structure Was almost entirely de-
stroyed by the fire. The explosion
caused a wild pane in that portion of
the town for Il time and the widest
stories were current regarding the
number killed and wounded. 1t hap
pened at time when the street was
crowded with people on their way
home and the street cars which pass
the front of the building every minute
were densely crowded. The flying
missiles from the factory struck a
number of people on the cars and one
man who was gazing at store window
fully 400 feet distant had his attention
suddenly attracted to other matters by
a rocket which hit him squarely in the
back He fell to the sidewalk uncon-
scious and was carried to a hospital
before he was able to give his name.
A majority of those injured received
but triting hurts. The loss on the
building and contents was 100000.
Mrs. Maggie Kinney was fatally IN
jured and died shortly after the acti-
dent.

tlcally a novice in ring tactics he was
able to stand off Fitz for a long time.
That he can take punishment there is
no doubt. That Maher can is ques-
ton. More than once Peter has been
called gutter. Maher has som
advantages over the sailor. He is
taller by three inches and his reach is
two and a half inches longer, vital
point in these days of shifty fighting.
His ring experience too is far greater
than Sharkeys. On the other hand
he is at disadvantage in age, for
Sharkey is fully several years his
junior. In bulk he will be less formid-
able than Tom. Sharkeys expanded

Peters swells the tape to only A. The
