pany drilled in gas well on the Gadbury
farm, just east of town. A good flow of gas
was encountered, but it was decided to go
still deeper. when a great volume of salt
water suddenly burst through and the gas
how was shut off. The puncture letting in
the salt water was stopped by driving a
wood plug in the opening, and on top of this
was packed two and one-half feet of lead,
effectually cutting off the flow of water.
The well is showing as good gas pressure
as any we'll in the field now.

proach to natural Interpretation of char
aeter than Miss Marlowe has ever displayed
before.
The ever-present scarf which Marlowe
formerly curved and waved and tangled and
tied into mere knots about her arms than
a sailor ever saw, is still her leading support
But the scarf, like Marlowe, has also inn
proved. She can now juggle much longer
and. therefore, more impressive BIT
and big, handsome fellow TO
make eyes at and it matters little
what sort of play her managers supply. She
can fondle and fold and hang scarf about
her head, her shoulders waist or feet in tune
with any sentiment Her ever-moving hands
and arms glide in and out OF its folds like
a shuttle The scarf is a great foil for the
nervous little movements of the actress, and
one wonders whether she would know what
heart-to-heart scenes if that scarf should
ever be lost. In THE Countess Naleska
she has role that challenges the best efforts
OF some great-chested woman with a voice
many times more powerful than the actress
has been given, yet no one can say she fails
to interpret the character. Her personality
gether an attractive role for Miss Marlowe,
necessitating a deliberate offer to smirch her
fair reputation for the sake of lover, but
it is portrayed with great womanly strength
and becomes character study that reveals
the actress along the line Of her best en-
deavOr. The great fault of the play is that
there is not enough Marlowe, and in the try
ing scenes too much is demanded of her
strength
The Countess Valeska" is a pictorial re-
view of a number of excellent dramatic char
acters, with the action of the play dragging
at times like a first performance. AS a play
ii is unsympathetc, trivial and dull, but as
a panorama of stage pictures 1t is quiet
enough for a church social. With Marlowe
out of sight it has trouble to be interesting.
The attempt to introduce comedy love scenes
between secondary characters is labored
and out of color with the tone of the produce
ton. Perhaps Marlowe audience never left
the theater less satisfied than yesterday, and
1t is solely the fault of the play. The rich
costuming and the appropriate settings only
partly retrieve the unworthy drama. No
playwright has yet seemed able to take the
M9rloWe measure. q
Her supporting company is far better than
those formerly presented here, but Mr.. Bos-
worth the leading man. has almost lost his
voice in bad cold and failed to make the
impression promised Mrs. Sol Smith is one
of the most delightful nursery actresses on
the stage, and Norah Jamison is pleasing
and shows good taste in initiating the star.
Tonight Miss Marlowe will be seen as
Rosalind in "As You Like IT. and will close
her engagement Wednesday night in her
original role of Parthenia in 'Ingomar'
