The music at the service was very
fine, under the direction of Prof. Ray

and reflected much credit upon his

fact that this mixed choir was one OF
the best in the city.
At eight o'clock the children's mass

by Rev. 81. Hanert, and special music

RACINE AND KENosHA HARBoR
Bill For their Improvement Did Pass the
Senate.

Senate
From further developments it seems
that the announcement made in this
paper last Saturday that the bill pro-
viding for the survey of the Racine and
Kenosha haI bors did not pass the
Senate was incorrect and the bill did
pass the senate just before adjourn
ment. The Milwaukee Sentiners cor
respondent, in speaking of the bill, has
the following to say:
Further investigation o! the status
of the bills for the survey of the harbOrs
at Racine and KenOsha show that the
measures did pass the senate few
moments before the adjournment for
the holiday recess. The bills come over
from the house just before adjournment
and they were referred to the commit
tee on commerce. Of course the COM
mittee had no time for meeting, but as
there were several bills providing for
investigation of lake harbOrs, the
members of the committee on the floor
of the senate were polled, each signing
to have the measure reported favorably,
a very unusual proceeding, and few
moments before adjournment the meas
ures were reported by Senator Nc
MILAN and passed without opposition.
1t was thought the measures had been
put over on account of want of time to
get them reported"

Grand-"Eight Bells

Eight Bells the remarkable acrobat
ic play of the Brothers Byrne, played to
the capacity of the house at the Grand last
night, and consequently it probably had
the largest audience in town The play is
in every sense an athletic one. There is
not slow moment in it. and some of the
moments are decidedly rapid. There is
no plot, but instead something near
enough to it to hang specalties on The
specialties themselves do the rest. The
capszing of the ship is one of the par
ticularly lively features and the vaude-
vile work of Richard Griffin. as Antonio
Macarone. the deserted Frenchman. and
William McEvoy, as Beeswax the school
master, are very funny. Perhaps the most
astonishing thing in the piece. however
Is the acrobatic series of performances in
the third act. The acrobats, dressed as
statues, pose as groups from the antiques
for few minutes, and then proceed to
turn somersaultS, rise in the world by
means of each others shoulders form
human pyramids and do many other
things nothing less than astonishing. This
part of the performance alone is well
worth going to see. The Couson Sisters
also do some extraordinarily clever dane
ing and balancing in this act. some of
their work being as graceful and pictur-
eSQue as it is clever.

MOTHERHOOD OF ST. ANDREW.
Local Council Meeting at Epiphany
Church.

That the laity Of the Episcopal Church
Of the diocese Of Washington do not in
tend TO in any way interfere with the
affairs Of the clergy even in matters Of
minor Importance was plainly evidenced
al meeting Of the local council Of the
Brotherhood Of St. Andrew held last
evening at Epiphany. This decision was
reached after a discussion of PROPOSE
ton that n committee be appointed TO
ascertain whether or not the clergy Of
the city would comply with the request
of the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton that the rector of each parish would
appoint some person to solicit contribu-
tons to the building fund. 1t was con
tended by the gentleman who made the
proposition that an answer from tho
clergy to the request Of the Young Men )
Christian Association would be only an
act Of courtesy. On the other hand 1t
was maintained that any suggestion from
the council in the matter would be I'M
called for interference and objectionable
especially In the face of the fact that
the local clergy are perfectly competent
10 take care of their own affairs without
instructions or assistance.
When the question was finally put 10
a vote II was unanimously determined
that the council would in no way inter
fere in the matter.
After the business session Mr.. James
c. Gale who recently returned from
Korea. where he has been engaged in
missionary work for many years. deliV-
cred an interesting lecture on the man
ners and customs OF the natives Of that
country. Additional interest was given
the discourse by a great number of eX-
cellent stereopticon views of noted per-
sons and places of historic interest. In
speaking Of the superstiti0ns of the ma
tives Of Korea Mr.. Gales made particular
mention of their ideas Of the soul They
all believe that each person has three
souls and that when they die one goes
up. another down, and the third remains
on earth, that their children may always
see IL. They are, however. faithful and
trustworthy, he said. and recited many
Incidents ia proof OF this statement.

fair audience greeted The Old

and there was a general burst of applause
at the appearance of Denman Thompson.
Mr.. Thompson's Uncle Josh is more real
istic and quietly natural this year than
ever before and some of the other parts
have apparently been toned down to suit
his impersonation. for the play. as
whole is not such a caricature as it has
been for the last, few seasons. There
have been several important changes in
the cast, and, in fact, almost the only
one of the old familiar faces now re-
naming is that of VIII Cressy. who plays
Cy Prime. Mr.. Cressy's impersonation
is as comical and as quantity artistic as
ever. Mr. Fred Clare is a gentlemanly
and urbane Happy Jack. even in his rags

but Mr. John Barker, who takes that
part, does some clever acting. The very
incongruOus chanting of popular songs by
a double quartet of hungry haymakers
has not disappeared. and although 1t is
anything but realistic, the audience likes
it. and the singing itself was never bet
ter done. Last night it received two or
three encores. A song, introduced this
year, is ballad by John Quinn entitled
I'm Take Care of You, Grandma" Mr.
Gus kammerlee played Henry Hopkins in
capital manner, and the conversation

straight to the hearts of the audience

which is very good, and the production
as a whole is the best that has been given
