MET HORRIBLE DEATH.
Stanley LaFrance Swept Away in
Lackawanna's Raging Torrent.

Yesterday mornings heavy rain con-
verted the shallow Lackawanna river
into raging torrent and yesterday
afternoon little 1O-year-old Stanley La
France, son of William II. LaF'rance,
cc No. q Birkett street, was playing
beside the stream nearly a mile above
this city. An unguarded foot bridge
spans the river at the Lackawanna
grove for the convenience of railrcad-
ers, and at o'clock little Stanley went
out on the structure with a board to
ascertain the depth of the water, lost
his balance and was swept into eter-
nifty.
The current is so swift that the boy
was almost instantly out of sight and
hope of rescue. 1t was reported that
he was seen In the water back OF the
Ontario and Western freight house,
still struggling for life, but it Is hardly
probab that he could have survived
death at that point.
Subsequently it was Tumored that a
lad named Lewis had been drowned in
trying to recover the remains near
Jermyn, but this was not verified by
a telephone message OF inquiry sent
to Jermyn and Archibald by Under
taker Purple at the instance of the
father. The reply was that nothing
had been seen of the remains.
At late hour last night hope Of
finding the body in the upper valley
had been abandoned.
The father is almost crazed with
grief. He was sick in bed with the
grip when the sad news reached him
and ne Immediately dressed and went
out for help.

Way Down East"

Way Down East" the play that has
prompted unstinted and enthusiastic
praise from clergy, school teachers,
women, and, in fact, people in every
walk of life. including thousands who
are seldom seen inside the walls of
theatre, is to be presented at the Ly-
ceum Friday and Saturday and Satur-
day matinee. The scene of the action
is a New Hampshire farm. the play
being from the pen of Lottie Blair
Parker, elaborated by j. r. Grismer,
and the entire production under the
direction of Mr.. w. A. Brady. The
piece is made up of a series of hap
penings. designed to portray the SIM
plicity, comedy and tragedy of a COM
munity, the purity and sweetness Of
which might run uninterrupted for
ever. but for the casting across of the
shadows of the wicked citv. This
comes in the form, of the cultivated
city man. with more money than NOR
ais, who has ruined confiding. rural
lass under the guise of a mock mar
riage.
For seven months this play had an
uninterrupted, prosperous career at
the Manhattan theatre, New York, and
will no doubt repeat it's success during
its engagement in this city.

THEATRICAL.
"a Colonial Girl"

Howard Gould, who for several years
has been at the head of the road COM
panies that Mr. Frohman sends out
with the plays that T.. II. Sothern has
popularized, was seen at the Lyceum
last night at the head of the company
which presented "'The Colonial Girl"
Mr.. Gould is very happy in romantic
roles. as those who saw him in the
Prisoner of Zenda" will remember.
He gave further proof last night OF his
power behind the footlights by his vir-
lie and altogether excellent presenta-
tion of the role of Godfrey Remsen.
The scenes of "a Colonial Girl" are
laid i'm the period of 1875 in New York.
The story is one in which true love and
Jealousy predominates and although it
is of stirring times, Is not Of war,
though 1t touches on the Revolution.
MIR. Gould was seen as a gallant young
American. Godfrey Remsen. who has
spent some years in England. On his
return to his native land, he finds that
the woman he has loved, believing him
poor. has Tilted him. and married an
other and richer man. In a spirit of
pique he hastily marres simple little
country maid. Mollie. as the girl is
called, learns after her marriage the
cause which led Godfrey to propose to
her and naturally feels resentment
The plots of Godfreys former love, now
widow, to separate him from his
young wife, result in efforts to have
him arrested as a spy in General Wash
ington's employ, with the purpose of
making him believe that his wife be-
trayed him. She is foiled in this by
Godfrey, who penetrates the British
headquarters in disguise and saves his
wife from insult, after fighting a duel
with a British officer. After saving his
wife and winging his man in the duel,
he finds himself surrounded by Eng
lish officers and death as a spy con-
fronting him. when the opportune ar
rival of the Continental army gives
him his freedom as the curtain rolls
down. The play was admirably staged
and the costuming was correct.
Grace Atwell made fine impression
by her work in the role of Mollie He'd
din. who married Godfrey Remsen, and
Albert Perry and Duncan Harris ap-
peared to good advantage in character
roles. Other prominent members Of the
company We're Robert Conners, Charles
| G. Brandt, Bratton Kennedy and Helen
| King Russell. The play will be pre-
sented here again before the end of the
season. The audience that saw it last
| night was not large. e..
