Secret Service.


 William Gillette's play. Secret Service" which is to be presented with the original scenery and effects at the Jefferson The atre next Friday night, is pretty love story. To be more exact, it is several pretty love stories, for there are several pairs of lovers in it. The chief interest, however, centers in the battle of hearts between the northern secret service man and tine charm ing southern girl, whose face has won him, but whose loyalty to the Confectionery makes her difficult prize to capture. A finer love story has seldom found its way to tine stage, and the play is considerd one of the best ever constructed by the au- thor. This is high praise as MT. Gillette the author of Secret Service" has to his credit as many, if not more, successful plays than any other living American dra- matist.

Mcdonald has been entirely conscious since his removal to the hospital His condition this morning seemed more fa- vorable, but tonight it took a turn for the worse, and he began ito sink. He has con- Stantly reiterated the nope that me would die, declaring he did not care to live. To- day many came to see the wounded man, but the latter was particularly anxious that none of his friends should talk to the news papers about what he had told them and he even took the precaution to tear up their |, visiting cards, so that their identity might not be learned. Mcdonald has many friends in this city, who think that his mind was unsettled at the time of the shooting. An autopsy was performed on the body of MT. Morris today, and showed that three of the five bullets had struck him. The body will be taken from here tomorrow ev- ening to Cleveland, Ohio. The interment will be in Lakeview cemetery. The family of the dead man were the re- cipients of many telegrams and letters of coincidence today, and among the-touching incidents was a visit of twelve children of Mr. Morris Sunday school from Faith Chapel
 Daniel A. GGrosvenor, deputy auditor for the War Department, and the next in rank to MT Morris, was discharged on Saturday. Mir. Grosvenor received his discharge half an hour after the killing of Morris. It was conveyed to him from the office of Seere- tary Gage, the discharge taking effect aS once.

COMMON OWNERSHIP
 THE ONLY SOLUTION
Peter Curran, Chairman of General Federation of Trades Unions of
 England, on Social Question.

Chicago, December 23.-"You can never solve the social problem by strikes-that is my opinion after twenty years experience in the movement" said Peter Curran, chair man of the General Federation of Trades Unions of Great Britain in speaking to the working men of Chicago today, at meet ing held under the auspices of the Building Trades Council
 MT. Curran came to this country as the fraternal delegate from the British Trades Union Congress to the American Federation of Labor Convention, and represents about 2,OOO 900 organized workers in the United Kingdom He is president and organizer of the Gas Workers and general laborers' un- ion with general offices in London MT Curran said:
 After spending more money in England during the last twenty-five years on the in- dustrial battlefield than would keep 700 men legislating for our interests in the House of Parliament, we have come to the concla- sion that we must nave something to say about the making of the laws under which we have to work, and we must get away from the old orthodox political parties if we hope to secure what we seek.
 "The only possibility of our securing la bor legislation is by sending our own men to Parliament, not as masters, but as our servants. You can never solve the social problem by strikes, never remedy the social evils of which you complain by muscular force You must do it through legislation. am not in favor of any laws which would take away the right of the worker to strike, but I am not an advocate of strikes.
 There is only one solution, and that is In common ownership, for as long as we allow the land and the machinery of our country to be held as private monopSies by the few, so long will we have industrial dis putes and upheavals."

"When We Were Twenty-one."

Edward E. Rice has surrounded the popu- lar actor, MT. George Clarke, with sup porting company commensurate with the artists talents. MT. Clarke and his as sociate players appear at the Jefferson Theatre next Thursday in one of the great est dramas of modern manners, When We Were Twenty-One." The play gathers in- terest from the comradship which exists between youth. There were five in the lit tie circle of thos friends, but one died and the others devote themselves to the care and training of their dead friends son., young scrapegrace, known as the Imp" who has barely reached the age of twenty

one and is industriously sowing his wild oats.
 The Imp" has secretly contracted a marriage with an adventures, and his guardian, Dick Carewe, and the others seek to save him from the consequence of his indiscreet act. It Is a story of the foolish ways of boyhood and the saving wisdom of middle age. It reveals how ma ture counsels given at the right time may save youth from snares which lie in the path of life at twenty-one. It is designed to show the engaging picture of hearts bound together by enduring ties of friend ship. It shows, too, a quaint love story involving laughter and tears designed to take the nearer back to the days when we were "twenty-one."
 George Clarke will be seen as "Riehard Carewe," the most interesting of the quar- tette of friends who is finally rewarded by the love of Phyllis Ericson's, beau tiful and Aieenious girl who will be DOT trayed by Estelle Carter. Dudley Hawley will be the Imp" Emelie Beaupre appear as the Fire Fly and the three friends of Carewe, the Doctor, the Soldier Man and Waddles, and in the hands of J. W. Benson, J. J. Burke and Otis B. Thayer.

nearly cost him an eye, an ear. several

ducts a saloon on Twenty-second

by one of his countrymen and several

Among the number were stephen Ga

Doodish. Blicko tried to persuade the
trio that the money belonged to poor
man and that II would be injustice for
them to spend 1t.
When the Doolishes and Gadoola
realized that Blicko opposed their
wishes. they Knocked him down, al
most gouged his eye out, chewed his
ear nearly off, loosened several of his
teeth and battered his right leg until
it was almost useless. Not content
with thus abusing him. Blicko's as
