There has boon o weeks respite in

Almost until dawn, the firemen fought
the lire in the Andrews house. Several
firemen were on tho roof when it Rayo
signs of giving way. They had scarcely
time to heed the warming when the
centre OF the roof went down. By 6
o'clock. the fire was sufficiently under
contol to permit of search of the
ruins. Then it was that the bodies of
two Of the st. John children were
found. They were carried down and
placed by the side Of their mother and
brother. Soon afterward, L. G. Bruce,
who is married to u niece of Mr.. An
drews, arrived. He Unidentified the

a target pistal,a telescope,a quantity of
underclothing, sheets, coats, trousers

announces that he ha secured the
great dramatic success Under the Red

performance of this play in this city,
as it is one of the high-class attrac-

il with delight The leading male
part that of Gl. de Beraut, a swash-
buckling young Frenchman, whose
skill with the sword has made him re-
nOwned and won for him the unen-
viable title of BLACK Death" will be
played by Paul Cazeneuve, who has
been a star on his own account. His
superb acting in this role, which is a
=. ghly romantic cne, has shown him
to possess all the abilities and graces
necessary to such a character. Miss
Amena Gardner, the leading lady of
the company, will be seen to great ad-
vantage in the character of Renee de
Cocheforet, a loyal young woman in
love with Gil de Berault. One of the
chief characters in the romance is
Richelieu, the mighty Cardinal whose

It is usually understood that after
one or two seasons the average farce
comedy outlives its usefulness, how
ever there are exceptions and among
the most notable ones none occupy a
more exalted place in the esteem of the
amusement public than that hilarious
and excrutiatingly funny concoction
His Better Half"
This exceedingly prosperous arran-
cement of intensified mirth was intro
duced last September and at once
asserted its supremacy as a genuine
alleviator of trouble and sorrow; ever
since it has held on with marvellous
tenacity, and will doubtless command
the best consideration of theatre go
ers for several seasons momre.
His Better Half" while making no
pretentions to serious dramatic pur-
pose, nevertheless suggests a suppliant
quantity of esential interest to give 1t
distince quality from the thousand
and one farce comedies so familiar to
lovers of wholesome entertainment.
From the very start so much fun
was injected by Boyle & Graham that
it was generally regarded that the au-
thor had actually gone beyond the
limit, and yet each successive week
there has been a generous increase in
the amount of new and original feat
ures introduced and the efforts to still
further enhance the value of the work
as a positive relief from dull care have
been made continually.
His Better Half" is being presented
with all the improvements which
brains and ingenuity could devise and
the result is that a more joyous com
bination of fun and musical elements
could hardly be conceived. There is
everything contained in the happy
conglomeration of frolicsome enjoy
ment which makes His Better Half
stand alone as particularly well con-
Scructed farce comedy.
An admirable company of recogniz-
ed versatile comedians are engaged
to unfold the mirthful surprises and
such splendid stage equipment as is
absolutely relied upon has been pro-
vided in order that the whole should
form an entertainment. such as will be
pleasantly remembered.
