ssSoWing the Winds nj the Academy
Sidney Grundy's great play, Sowing
the Wind came to the Academy of Music
and will be here for a week. 1t is not
too much to say that 1t Is one of the
most interesting pieces produced in the
East for many seasons and it was well
presented last night. When it came to
New York columns were written about it
and few plays received more favorable
notice from the critics and d~eservedly so.
It is instructive, bright. and free from
the rant which creeps into comedies of
this character. The plot is so well known
that only a bare sketch of it is necessary.
1T hinges on the course of the true love
of a young actress and the adopted son of
a rich gentleman, who, assisted by a well
meaning old bachelor. tries to break off
the match. Everything turns out as it
should: the ISLANDERS against the artists
reputation are refuted; she is the daugh-
ter of her lovers foster father and a
general reconciliation closes the chapter
n brings down the curtain.
MT. Herbert e.. Sears made an admirable
Mr.. Brabazon, the wealthy chiidless man,
and the role of his adopted son, Ned.
shall Stedman. AS the crusty bachelor
Mr.. Thomas Whiffen presented a fine
character in a splendid manner, infusing
quiet humor which was very effective;
Frederick Strong as Lord PetWorth, and
Walter Green as Sir Richard Cursitor
were both admirably presented roles. To
Miss Maud edna Hall, as Rosamond, be-
longed the honors of the evening. Her
work was artistic in the extreme. The
audience were so delighted with her after
the fall of the curtain in the third act,
where she tells Mr.. Brabazon her
mothers NAME, and she was called with
Mr.. Sears before the curtain.
The giddy Mrs. Freewill and her equally
giddy daughter were respectively played
by Miss Emily bod and Miss Ella Hugh
Wood and there was nothing to find fault
with about their work. 1t was clever
and engaging. Throughout the play in
terest never lags and this is simply be-
his or her part ever so humble, does that
part well.

Bon Ton Theatre.


1.-THE Night Owls few into the Bon
Ton Theatre last night and were greeted
by a damned house Notwithstanding the
weather was warm. But if the weather
was a little warm the performance and
the performers were decidedly hot-ho
as pepper. What with living pictures and
a wiggle dancer, the large audience which
gathered at the theatre last night and
who seemed to expect something spicy,
were not disappointed. There were sew
eral good numbers on the bill, however,
and among them was the descriptive
songs of Mr.. Charles Fake. Miss Edna
Aug sang Anna Held's song, Come Play
With Me-" in a very acceptable manner
and another selection, in which she was
assisted by a little boy in the balcony,
was received with long n loud applause.
Whether the approval was intended for
her or the boy was a matter of doubt.
The whole business closed with a living
picture exhibition, which for nudity has
never been surpassed here or anywhere
else for that matter.

staff Correspondence Evening Journal.
Dover, May 13.-It was discovered
yesterday morning that the Senate Dill
to divorce Mary J.. from William F..
Prettyman had been lost in the House.
Senator Pyle, who introduced the bill,
traced 1t to the hands of Representa-
tive Taylor, who said that someone had
informed him that the case had been
withdrawn He did not know what
had become of the bill or who advised
him that it was withdrawn.
The journal of Speaker of the House
Riggin showed that it had only been
read first time in the House and never
referred. Therefore, it should have
been in the desk Of Clerk Splcer. He
could not find it.
Senator Pyle Immediately had a new
bill drawn and introduced in the Sen
ate under another title. He explained
the trouble, and the Senate passed the
bill under suspension OF rule. 1t was
sent to the House.
The Divorce Committee heard the
case on March 18. The grounds were
desertion and non-support. The bill
gave MIS-. IICll1iHtn tuSlOu1 VI ntA
four children. 1t was favorably consid-
cred the same day and passed the Sen
ate, and was carried over to the House
| by Clerk of the Senate Doherty.
Since then Mr.. Prettyman has
brought suit in Wilmington against g
man named Williamson for alienation
of his wlfes affections, the damag'
claimed being $4,000.
