AMUSEME IS.

Winsome Mabel Paige, supported by the Southern Stock Company, opened week 8 engagement at the Auditorium last night to one of the largest audiences of the sea- son. The pleasing nautical drama, "The Captains Mate,' was the opening bill and itswas put on in a thoroughly satisfactory manner. Miss Paige who is local favorite, was given a rousing reception and fully merited the liberal applause she received. As Margy Chester the Captains mate, she appeared to excellent advantage, and fully sustained her reputation as a splendid lit- tie actress. The company is good one, and every role was well taken. Carl Michael in monologue, Pellet in his juggling act, and William A. Lang in G1is acrobatic dancing, who appeared between the acts, were all good and their several turns added much to the performance.
 The bill for tonight will be "The Country Girl" which will be repeated at matinee tomorrow.

0r. Herbert McAuley Says He Was Incarcerated in
 South America

Atlanta, January "A special from Dal- ton, Ga, says:
 Dr. Herbert McAuley of Chicago is in the orty, the guest of his brother, the Mayor of Dalton. Twelve months ago Dr. McAuley enlisted in the Red Cross service of Chi cago with other surgeons and nurses to go to South Africa. He alone continued in the enlistment, the others taking up arms with the Boers. About eight weeks ago. he says, while en route home with other Americans, he was summarily arrested in Portuguese territory and rncsrcerated, he alleges. with out cause He made complaint to the Amer ican consul wflo, with an interpreter, went before the Governor, who would order no release unless accompanied by a Portuguese soldier until a ship sailed. This Dr. Me Auley refused, and, according to his state ment was re-incarcerated and about $10O0 worth of surgical instruments and medi- cines the property of his own and the Chi cago Red Cross Society, confiscated. After two weeks he was put on vessel for Aus tria and given a ffrst-class passage and two hundred Kruger sovereigns left for him by General Botha's express direction to a mutual friend. At Paris D-. McAuley made another complaint to the American author ftes. Secretary of State Hay cabled him there, Dr. McAuley says, to give out no Washington, which he did fortnight ago. and tthe matter is now in diplomatic chan nefS.
 pr. McAuley demands one hundred thous- and dollars indemnity from the Portuguese government.

now ask

the situation at a glance. By means of 9 secret panel underneath the staircase the princess is made to escape and the mob enters. The prince takes the blame of the murder upons himself.
 The last act is laid in two scenes the first in a room of the fortress of Drachen- stein, where the prince has been taken by an order of arrest signed by the princess, and the second in the same cottage that was the scene of act one. The prince in prison is as happy as can be reasonably ex- pected under the circumstances and chaffs his cousin roundly, who has been arrested with him. The mistress of the prime min ister has always had very soft spot for the prince, and in his hour of need she proves his saviour, for she has forced her lover to give her the free pardons of both the prince and his cousin. These she brings in person. The revolution has broken out the palace has been burned by the mob and the prince and princess are both out in the woods. The prince makes a vain search for his wife upon his release from the prison and finds her at the cottage of the farmer-peasant. They are reunited and are ready to face the world and begin life anew.

CHIEF AUSTIN IS
 AFTER MIGRANTS
Issues an tdict That Has Caused Consternation Among
 the Sports

There is consternation in the ranks of the sporting element, caused by an order issued by Chief Austin of the police department who has instructed his men to notify all persons who are able to work and have no visible means of suppo.t to leave the city in forty-eght hours or take the conse- quences, which means arrest on the charge of vagrancy.
 It is stated that a humber of "sports" have already taken to the woods" and that others are laying low. In discussing the subject yesterday Chief Austin said;
 "It is true that 1 have instructed mem- bers of the force to notify men on their beats, both white and lack, who are able bodied and do not seem to have any visi- ble means of support, that they must leave the city within forty-e.ght hours or take the consequences. There are many men who- will come under this notice. This notice runs out on Wednesday,, after which time there will be arrests made If the ders are not adhered to. I mean business
 T am informed that some of the king bees of the sporting element have a bill prepared to be presented to the Legislature looking to the abolishment of the police commission of Birming ham. Having ex- hausted other means, they are trying to get my scalp that way.
 T also informed that some of the sporting element of tFnds city are grooming a candidate to run for chief of police on an independent ticket in the city election in May.
 "I propose to go on attending to my duties as laid down on the law books of the city"

EXPLOSION AT SEA.
Several Men Killed and Chief Engineer
 Painfully Burned

Galveston, January 7.-The British steam CT Domingo de Larrinaga arrived in port today with the report of an explosion of the main steam pipe, the accident resulting in the death of two fremen and a stowa- way.
 Two spanards, Jose Campos and Manuel Duenos, were taken out dead and horribly disfigured by the scalding steam. The third victim was a negro stowaway, whose name was unknown. His face, body and limbs were frightfully lacerated.
 Chief Engineer Barclay was painfully burned in a number of places. The victims of the explosion were buried as soon as pos- sibe and the vessel brought into Bermuda by Captain Gibson as quickly as her dis allied condition would permit. Nearly two weeks were spent making the necessary repairs before the vesseY could continue on her way to Galveston.
