Dumas Masterpiece.

"The Three Musketeers" will be pre-
sented at the Auditorium on Monday
Dec, 4, with Mr.. John Griffith, of
'FMephisto" fame, in the role of
'D'Artagnan." This character will call
forth all his powers of comedy and is
especially fitted to Mr.. John Griffiths'
personality. 1t is a play made famous
by the late Salvlni, and the revival of
the past three years has brought be-
fore the public many we'll known ira
gedians, among whom Mr., Griffith
stands apart as the most successful in
this style Of characters. The version
of Dumas famous novel contains many
thrilling scenes not used by others in
their presentations. The company
surrounding this we'll known star and
his principal support is Miss Kathryn
Purnell, is especially engaged for each
and every part, which enables him to
give an unusually correct and artistic
performance, in which particular at
tention is given to every detail Cos
tuning is unusually elaborate and his
torlcally correct. The special scenery
has been painted by Mr.. E. G. Unit,
scenic artist of Daniel Frohman's
Lyceum theatre, New York City, whose
name is a guarantee of artistic correct
ness in every particular; four full
stage sets and eight drop scenes, max
ing twelve different settings used in
each performance, Particular atten-
tion has been bestowed on the music
which has been arranged for "The
Three Musketeers" and is unusually
dramatic. Seats on sale at Gates news

FORCED TO WED A NEGRO.
at Toledo, o., In Securing
Divorce.

The very strange tale of the wedding
of Ameda Harris Fletcher, a society girl
well known in northern Ohio and resid-
ing at Weston, was ended when she was
given an absolute divorce from her ne
gro husband, John Fletcher. On the
witness stand Miss Harris told the story
of her wedding, which at the time was
considered love affair, followed by an
elopement. One evening in September
she was summoned from a church fair
by note and found Fletcher on the
corner. He presented a revolver and
compelled the girl to go with him. Out
side the city he forced her to change
clothing, she assuming mans garb.
Then he cut her hair to make her look
like a boy. Then came a two days
tramp and the marriage at Monroe,
Mich. She was there allowed to put on
her own clothing. Two days later she
was found on Station island by her IA
ther. The girl is 10 years old and the
divorce was granted without contest.
She takes her maiden name of Harris.
Her father is wealthy.

"The Turtle" "

The Turtle" comes to the Auditor
ium on Saturday night, Dec. 8, direct
from its long and prosperous run, ex-
ceeding a period of two hundred per-
formances at the Manhattan theatre in
New York, and with a brilliant cast
and scenic environment. The play is
literal adaptation from the French
of Leon, Gambillot by JOS w. Herbert
who has been remarkably successful
in his efforts, preserving the atmos-
phere of the authors work, and at the
same time eliminating whatever might
be Objectionable in the original manu-
script THE Turtle" is full of spice
and abounds in laughable situations
and complications, but it is never
naughty.
The story tells of the double matri-
monial ventures of one Chambalier,
who is nicknamed by his first Wife,
Leonie, as 1.-THE Turtle" his explana-
ton of it being that she used to call
him the turtle dove, and finally drop
ped the dove part of it, The first ace
finds Champalier just divorced from
Leonie, who has schemed to this end
because she is enamored to a poster
painter named Adolphe. When the
latter appears upon the scene, she
learns to her horror that he has trans
ferred his affections to one Juliette,
the daughter Of an innkeeper. She
also has learned that Adolphe to de-
ceive Juliette's parents, has represent
ed her to them as his sister. The
complications which follow have been
treated with very delicate hand, and
never offend. Laughter reigns through
out the performance, and as the play
proceeds the characters become
more involved, until it seems impossi
BILE to release them from their trou-
bles. The last act is particularly
bright and witty, y,everything is smooth
ed out to the satisfaction of everybody,
and the play ends with THE Turtle"
remarrylng and returning to his first
love. The cast includes such able and
accomplished players as Sylvia Alice
Lynden, Frances Knapp, Maude Otis,
Ada Morton. John Torris. VIM Nc
Greedy, ]. E. McGregor Clement st.
Martin and important others.

Legends in India run that if woman
stricken with leprosy suffers herself to
be buried alive the disease will not
descend to her children. There was in
the northwest provinces of India the
wife of a gardener on whom the loath-
some malady had fallen. Children were
born TO her. The disease grew WORSE.
She importuned her husband to bury
her alive. He at last, yielding to her
prayers, summoned his son. The two
dug the grave and four neighbors as
sisted at the sepulture. So the woman
died. These facts were investigated in
a magistrates court and were proved.

its pay roll amounts to $500 per week.
Considerable work is being done for the
Goodrich transportation company.
The company has offers to build a
number OF pulp digesters. The sulphite
process of manufacturing PRINT paper
creates quite demand for pulp digesters.
many OF which the Manltowoc works has
built. There are only three boiler works
In the country which can manufacture
these digesters. They are at PitJsburg
Penn, Portland, Maine, and Manitowoc
Mr.. Hess says if he had sufficient room
he could easily secure majority of these
contracts and they would keep him busy
until December with force of $50 men
There Is good profit in work of this kind
because competition is not strorg but
space is required to do the work.

nominations this year for mayor, bat to
endorse the call issued Mr.. Rahr The
Pilot is acting, as it thinks, for the best
interests Of the city. 1t IS no kindness to
Mr.. Rahr to ask that he be given the bur-
dans of the mayoralty. But he has quail
tications which tit him for the position of
chief executive of growing and ambit-
lous city. He Is energetic, watchful and
progressive. Besides it Is desirable TO
nave party nominations discontinued in
municipal matters. An undeserving man
who receives a call need not be endorsed.
But In this instance it is guide for par
ty action.
