"A coNFEDERATE SPY" AT ST. PAurs
Excellent Amateur Performance in
GreenviIIe Last Evening.

The members of st. Paul's Catholic
Club of Greenville distinguished them
selves last evening when they presented
the Southern drama, "A Confederate
Spy" in the parish hall on Old Bergen
Road and Linden avenue. The young
people who for some time past worked
hard rehearsing deserve much credit for
the satisfactory way in which the per-
Torrance was given. Each and every
member of the cast acted his or her part
very we'll, and for amateurs the presen-
tation might be termed excellent. Es-
pectally good was Harry O'Mealia, who
portrayed the Confederate Spy" His
acting was very clever and frequently
brought forth bursts of applause, a de-
cidedly unusual performance for one
playing the part of a villain.
The rest of the cast was as follows
George Waterman Ga young UnionisD,
Harry J.. Walsh; Fred Amsley "a rebel
aide de camp from Jackson's lines). Mar
tin j. Roehrenbeck; Major General
Banks, Charles Kelly; Colonel Willard,
William F. McKenna; Officer Mulgarry,
Joseph O'Neil; ClayM(a colored gentle
man,, Joseph A. Donovan; Sockery
Sneidlebecker Ia drafted Dutehman),
George B. Riley; Mrs. Waterman (mother
of George, Miss Kate Walsh; Maud
Bradley SISTER Of spy, Miss Minnie Hob
mann; Norah McLeggin, Miss Nellie Nc
Cormack.
The audience last evening, although
good, was not up to the expectations of
the members, for the school hall was
hardly more than half full. Probably the
disagreeable weather had much to do
with the slim attendance. but those WIKI
missed last nights production can see it
either tonight or tomorrow night.

The production at the Academy of Music
tits week. entitled Our Boys in three
acts, is certainly well worth a good jour-
ney to see. and it keeps the audience IN
a continual roar of laughter from the be-
ginning until the end of the performance.
The play deals with two young men whose
fathers are very rich and intend to
bring them up in life to do just as they
desire and marry according to their wills.
But the young men refuse to marry the
girls they select, and are turned away
from home. Seven months later they
are seen in a cheap boarding house where
their fathers locate them, and the fun
enacted in this act is great.
The part of .Our Boys are taken by
Mr.. George T. WEIGH as Talbot Champ
neys, and Alexander Granger as Charles
Middlewick, and are filled TO the letter.
AS it was their first appearance with Mr..
Sackett,s stock company, they made q
decided hit, and will be warm favorites
while they stay in this city.
Edward f. Mawson as Sir Geofry
Champneys, performed exceedingly well,
and he is also a new mamner Oh Inc as
Perkyn Middlewick, a retired butteTman,

ard as kempster, a servant. was GOOD.
Miss Tempe Evans as Violet Evans, an
heiress, performed her part admirably,
and Miss Eleanor Merron. as Mary Mel
rose, her cousin. was also very clever
Miss Rene Darcy. as Sir Geoffry's sis
ter. Clarfsa Chanpneys, and Miss Polly
Stockwell. in the part of Belinda. a SER
want. made a good impression upon the
large audience present with their clever
acting.
The speeialties this week are all good
and each one had to respond to a num-
Der OF encores. Tommy Baker. the Dub
lin Boy. is certainly a good vocalist, as
he proved himself to be last evening.
Nettie Nelson. in songs and dances, is
very neat and her act is a good one; The
Mcdonald Brothers. as German and irish
comedians, were very eomical and a to
respond a number of times.
The entertainment closes with Lumiere
Bros cinematograple with an entire
change of pictures. During the progress
of the play, last evening. some loafer in
the gallery, when the house was darken-
ed for a few minutes. thought he would
let every one in the house know he was
there by bowling at the top of his voice.
Mr.. Sackett came before the footlights
and the way he addressed the loafer will
make it a long time before he will
use his lungs again in a theatre above
q wtiSner.

Bon Ton Attractions.

Between the excitement of the lion act
and the Atlas Graeco-Roman wrestling
match the patrons of the Bon Ton got
their moneys worth last night. The rest
of the entertainment, although of a first
class character. seemed to pale in inter-
est as compared with the two events mem
toned. The challenge of Atlas to wrestle
any man in the world was promptly ac-
cepted by two eager competitors. Mr..
Sweeney of Newark, who is booked for
tonight, and Roeber of New York City,
who will have a chance to show his skill
and strength Friday night, when no doubt
the theatre will be crowded to its
capacity. The olio comprised the follow
ing clever artists.-Watson and Russell,
Clements and Marshall, the acrobatic
Herbert Brothers. McCabe and Sabine.
Adgie, the female lion tanner, closed the
regular show and had everyone's hair
standing with her thrilling performance.
AS this week closes the house for the
season everybody hould see this excellent
performance.

Mr.. Hopkins Commencement Plans.

Mr.. Hopkins Commencement F1ans'
Now here is Mr.. Principal Hopkins of
the High School declaring that. if he is
ever President of the New High School
he will abolish three features of the Com
mencement-dress, essays and flowers
In that case. we hope Mr.. Hopkins will
never be at the head of the school.
We believe in the commandments We
believe in the dress, we believe in the
flowers. and, above all, we believe in the
essays. Further, we think the public
cordially agree with US.
For Mr.. Hopkins to oppose the dress
feature at commencement is to teach ms
pupils to disregard the amenities OF life.
Dress is one of the media by which we
give expression to our sense of the inn
portance of an event. 1t is a perfectly
proper form of expression. By dress we
display joy and sorrow, our sportiveness
or our sense of solemn responsibility
Men have don't it from the days OF
Adam, and no doubt they will continue
to the end of time. 1t is as much in the
nature of man as the habit itself OF wear
ing clothes. AS the occasion OF their
from school is one of both
festivity and solemn m to the
young people of the High School it is
both natural and right that they should
do honor to it by appropriate costume
Not to do so would be sordid and cynical,
and there are no forms of moral degen-
eracy which young people should be more
carefully trained to avoid.
As for the flowers. they are a nice,
g~ood-natured greeting which custom or
dams from the veterans of life TO the
young combatants who are just entering
the arena They do no harm, but on the
contrary some small good, like every
beautiful and w~arm-hearted thing. OF
course, we know the old argument that
1t is a strain on the resources of poor
people to provide them. Perhaps it is.
But sometimes it is out of M sacrifice
involved in just such things that mental
and moral elevation have their growth.
To the dead level, practical people a
study of the parsnip stew incident, near
the beginning of Mary E. wilkins re-
Gently published novel, Jerome" might
be commended.
h essay question was fully discussed
in ssThe News yesterday The only new
feature today is the clever manner in
which Mr.. Hopkins threw dust in the
graduates eyes and induced them to p
prove the scheme of leaving them off
the programme. The Principal, of course,
counted on the laziness of school boys
and girls who were given a chance OF
getting out of a task, and the young
people fell into the snare. Mr.. Hopkins,
in his remarks to the class, plainly show
ed the purpose of the move. The grad
yates are to be crowded off the pro-
gramme in order to allow a certain num-
her Of gentlemen. who like to near them
selves talk. to bore the audience to their
hearts content.
The parents of the children should now
be heard from. They should refuse to
put up one single dollar for n such
performance as is contemplated, and they
should enter a vigorous protest with the
Board Of Education against the abolition
Of the old n pleasant and educational
customs.
