MISS SARA PBRRY's SUCCESS.
Her Rapid Advance ms mn Actress---No,
Playing In "secrct Service"


The Philadelphia Telegraph Of last Sat
urday contained the following IN regard 20
q successful young actress, who is a cousin
of Mrs. George b. White of Brattleboro,
and whose family formerly lived at South
Newfane: "Secret Service has taken a
firm hold here. 1t is ingenious in its
theatricalsm, but its articles cannot blunt
the sense OF sympathy when brought in
contact with the love story. This is al
nowerful. In the Northern soldier sem
over the lines on a desperate mission and
in the Southern girl we have two beings
of flesh and bood-not the lay figures con.
ventional with war stories-who love eacl
other and find stretched between them an
apparently unbridgeable gulf. The play
is full of action. There is not a moment
when it becomes sluggish. Even the deli
cately conceived minor love scenes add 10
the momentum. The characters are clear
in outline they have body, and they are
moreover typical There are thrilling in.
cidents and startling situations-iHdeed
the whole conception is based on an acute
knowledge of the trend of human sympa-
thy and the susceptibility of imagination
to pictorial influence. Mr.. Gillette has
surrounded himself with an admirable
body of players, and as his foil in the TO
nance. he has a charming aid in Miss
Sara Perry. Her Edith Varney is one Of
the most delightful of stage presentations.
Miss Perry came East from st. Louis less
than three years ago a novice in practica
stagecraft Her sincerity, joined to her
looks and manners, impressed Charles
Frohman. and she was absorbed by the
Empire Stock company. In "Under The
Red Robe" she was the Nine. Eaton, and
her growth in art was so rapid that within
a short time she was given the role of
Mime. Cocheforet. She was then known
as Jane Harwar later on taking her pres
ent nom du theatre She entered the cast
of "Secret Service very unobtrusivey
and her success in the part, although she
followed in the footsteps OF Amy Busby
and Blanche Walsh, was pronounced
This is a rapid advance, when one con
siders that only about two years ago she
was picked out Of Nelson Wheatcrofts
class of pupils.

FACING A BIG DEFICIT.

Tho animal meeting of the Farmers "

ont an unpleasant surprise to the STOCK
| holders in revealing the large deficit as the
result of carving on business the past
wear. A large part of the meeting was
devoted to a discussion of the deficit, and
the plans upon which to conduct the Dusl-
ness in the future.
The meeting was adjourned to next
Monday. Jan. "a, when a plan Tor reOr-
Plantation will be reported by committee
consisting of T. j. b. Cudworth, ,. b..

These ii cures show a record for the past
two years at striking variance with that OF
the previous 20 years in the organization
history. Two years ago, before the remov-
al from Ieonard's block, the exchange
was pointed out as a shining example of
successful cooperation. 1t had always
paid six per cent interest on the members
stock. and a dividend each year on the
members trade Of from three to 20 per
cent annually, the total amount paid back
to the members on their trade being up
wards Of so, 600.
The building of the Grange block was
heavy burden for the exchange The block
cost S3l 900 and was disposed of to a sep
arate company last summer, the company
assuming a mortgage of SIG, 900 and stock
of a par value of $4,000 in the Farmers &
Mechanics exchange held by members of
the block company being surrendered and
cancelled. While the exchange owned the
building it occupied large quarters and in
order TO make a fair showing for the build
ing it was necessary to charge the store
with rental of $4,000 annually. There
has been a falling OFF in trade the past
year to the amount of nearly $4,000. OF
which in round numbers $1,000 was in the
trade of outsiders and SIS, 900 in the trade
of members.

stripes, and on the sides are six shileds, each with thirteen stars to represent the original states of the Union. Seat tered around the bowl are forty-fve large stars to represent the states now in the Union. The president has sev- era1 reasons for approaching this splendid gift, not the least of which is that it is American made and con- stant reminder that the establishment of the industry of cutting glass in the United States, which opponents of the republican party once declared to be an impossibility, and which now rivals both in extent and workmanship that produced by any country on earth, was the direct result of republican efforts.
 One of the first results of American possession of the Philippines will be the squelehing of Aguinaldo and his pinchback government and the dis bandment of his army. Officials do not anticipate that any trouble will follow when Aguinaldo is ordered to disarm his followers and to tell them to re- sume their ordinary occupations, but if there is any trouble it will be short and decisive, as there are enough American troops now at Manila to make snort work of whipping Aguinal- dos forces into obedience, should it be- come necessary.

HOLLAND A SUCCESS.
A Favorable Report of Her Made to
 the Navy Department

Washington, Dec. GA favorable re- port on the practicability of the sub marine torpedo boat Holland has been made at the navy department by the board of inspectors and survey.
 The members of the board were on the Holland during the recent test, and found that the unique craft was all the builders said she was. They rec ommend, however, that a further test be made under war conditions. This test will not take place for about month, as, in the opinion of the board, the Hollands crew needs that length of time to become thoroughly accus- toned to its duties. According to the board the crew is somewhat raw, and needs training to insure proper hand ling of the boat.
 The war test' will be conducted over, or rather under, a mile course In the course of the course an old vessel will be anchored and to make the test a success the Holland must rise to the surface, discharge a torpedo effective ly at the hulk and then disappear be- neathsehe surfaees es.siyN neither the boat will be aps:t ted <by- sgovernment will depend on the successful accom- plishment of this programme,

NO LONGER LUCKY
Fortune Turns Her Back Upon E. J.
 Baldwin.


 Washington, Dec. 6.-The Star prints the following interview with J. C. Fish CT Of San Francisco relative to Lucky" Baldwin:
 "The burning of the Baldwin hotel will probably bankrupt J. c. Baldwin, whose sObriquet of Lucky" was gained through the sudden fortune he amassed in the Ophir mine deal. While the as- sessed valuation of the property held by Baldwin still runs into the millions, it has been known for some time that he was very hard pressed for ready money. He has even been known to renew notes for a few hundred dollars which he never did before in his f1nan- cial history. There is but about $300,- 900 insurance on the hotel, and only about S100000 of this was on the build in. There is a mortgage indebtedness of S900,000. It will not only take the insurance money, but the ground upon
