HAVE YOU SEEN sMITH?'

Have You Seen Smith," is the farce
at Lothrop's this week. There is a
story to the play. Mrs. Brown is
troubled with a propensity to appro-
pirate that which belongs to some one
else, and in order to have her watched,
Charles Patty, one of the family who
seems to be there for the express pur-
pose of doing something for some one
else, advertise for a chaperone for the
aforesaid Mrs. Brown. Mrs. Smith
answers the advertisement and Mr..
Smith also answers it, with murder in
his mein. That's about all there is to
the story, but this much is a vehicle
for all sorts of absurd situations in
which Mr.. Brown and Baron Michael
Rowdedow of the Italian embassy are
involved.
Have You Seen Smith?" keeps grow
ing and growing until Mr.. Smith is
really seen, The specialties in the
piece are of the best. Mr. and Mrs.
Jimmie Barry, who are known every
where in vaudeville, have a little skit
they call MIR. wilkins Boy" which is
very funny, and leaves room between
the fun for some good singing. The
Gaiety trio, Haley and Meehan, John
7. Tierney, Nicholas Judel Lew Car
roll and Harry Earle help out in the
specialties. THE Girl With the Golden
Hair" the mystery, whose name is
Mary Lane, is a wonder in her songs.
She has a voice of surprising strength
and quality, and her range is marvel
Gus, reaching and sustaining high d
without an effort
On the whole, Have You Seen
Smith," is pleasant comedy, with no
bad points worth mentioning, and with
out doubt the house will be filled each
night of the week, as it was at the
opening performance.

of us who have followed the business
for years, he was not always in condi-
ton and met defeat sometimes when
he least expected it.
Ross, ! believe, only raced once at
Lake Quinsigamond, and that was in
the regatta which was held at the lake
July 12-14, 1887. He and Lee were con-
testants in a double scull race that was
one of the most exciting in the history
of boating at the lake, but they were
not quite speedy enough to win that
day, for they finished second, to Hos
mer and Mckay. @eaHs" oos
He has competed upon several occa-
sions for the worlds championship, but
was never able to wrest it from Ed
Hanlan. His greatest effort to win the
championship from Hanlan was in
July, 1883, the 18TH think it was,
when these two men rowed over four
mile course with turn at Ogdensburg,
n. Y. Ross made a great battle, but
Hanlan was then in his prime, and
Ross was again a loser.
THAT same fall however, he went to
England and defeated George Bubear
over the Thames championship course
in 26 minutes and 10 seconds with the
greatest ease, after allowing him 10
seconds start. He won $4,000 on this
race and the championship of Eng
land.
Il remember one of the greatest races
1 was ever in with him was the inter
national four cared race which occurred
at London, Nov. 8, 1886, over the cham
pionship course on the Thames river.
The American crew was[composed of
Hanlan, Teemer, Hamm and myself,
and the English team was composed of
Ross, Perkins, Lee and Bubear.
THE purse was for $1,000 and we de-
feated them after a hard battle. An
other race ina2which he took part and
in which I had a seat in the victorious
boat, was atoDuluth, Mich, in 1890, Our
crew consisted of Gaudaur, Ham, Nc
Kay and myself. The other crew was
composed of Ross, John Kennedy, Muir

had carted wood from every available
place. Wagons full of bonfire material
were kept m.ying across the campus

nigh to the top of the stately elms. A
procession of all the students headed by
the New Brunswick cornet band, Prince
toms drum corps, Capt. Edwards and his
company Of gridiron heroes riding in a
large bus, marched through the streets
at SIS with a dozen transparencies.
Upon arriving at the cannon Capt. Ed
wards touched a match to the pile of
wood and in moment it was a sheet of
flame. Crowds gathered in front of Clio
hall, where speeches were made by Capt.
Edwards, Poe, ex-Capt. Hillebrand, Rel
ter and others. The students sang and
danced around the fire until midnight.

STATION AT cAvITE.
Admiral Dewey Confers With Long on
.-- Its Formation.

Washington. Nov. N.-Admiral Dewey
called at the navy department today, re-
sponsive to a request from Secretary
Long with reference to the establishment
of a naval station at Cavite. Such sta
ton is now in operation at Cavite, but
it is foreseen that the requirements of the
navy may be greater than those which
are temporarily attended to at Cavite.
The admiral brought with him portions
of his report to be Incorporated in the full
report Of the Philippines commission.
This discusses the establishment of a
permanent naval station for the Philip
pines and recommends Subig Bay, about
80 miles from Maylay as preferable to
Cavite, as there is fine harbor ample
depth of water and many natural advan-
tages for making this a strong naval es-
adjustment.

Seniors and Juniors of the High School
Play Foot Ball Without Scoring.


Play Foot Ball Without Scoring.
Picked elevens from the senior and
junior classes of Worcester high school
played foot ball at the oval yesterday
afternoon, neither side being able to
score In the second half the call of time
prevented the seniors from scoring. They
had the ball on the one yard line when
the whistle blew. There was a large num-
Der of students present, including many
young ladies, and the display of class col
ors was universal.
In the make up of the elevens all mem
bers or subs of the school eleven were
barred During the first half the ball was
near the middle of the field nearly all
the time. Both sides frequently lost pos
session of the ball on downs and both lost
it many more times on fumbles. There
was considerable punting in which the
teams split about even. Toward the end
of the second half the seniors rushed the
ball down toward the Junior goal stead
lily pushing their opponents back. When
they reached the one-yard line the play
ing time expired. Morse and Rice, ends
of the seniors, played the best game on
the field. Their tackling was a feature of
the game. Shea and Quinn of the juniors
did good tackling also. Shea made a
pretty run of 20 yards. Morse got in two
i0-vard runs, and Rice made one of 20
wards for the seniors. The lineup:

last half With a score of to /
against them at the end of the first

goal and one on a free try, which
placed them on even terms with their
opponents. But the latter came back
with a goal from the field and two
points on free tries and victory went
to them.
1t was a hot contest in which the de-
fensive playing of both teams was eX-
cellent. There was a large delegation
from Marlboro to root for their team,
and they did it heartily. The hall was
packed the crowd being the record of
the season Lyceum supporters were
out in numbers and made their pres
ence manifest. Their favorites gave a
good exhibition and made a hard try.
A feature Of the game was the excel

ceum team Several times he carried
the ball past the Marlboro men for a
try at goal. Halloran of the visitors
