The company is booked to appear in

the road continuously for three years,
with a repertoire of some half dozen
operas. Mr.. Murphy says that money

relates that the boy has been in mis-

His contention was that the woman

NO OFFICIAL WORD.
Garrison mt Fort Screven Awaiting
Orders of Secretary.


The garrison of soldiers OF the
United States Army at Fort Screven
on Tybee Island felt keenly the news
of the death of the President, which
reached there yesterday morning
through the Morning News. officers
and men of the artillery companies
stationed there deeply deplored the re-
moval of their commander in chief,
and throughout the day there was a
we'll defined air of sorrow and regret.
No official notification of the death
of the President reached the Fort,
however, and, until 1t does, there will
be no demonstration. 1t is expected
that orders from the Secretary of War
will reach the Fort to-day, when the
officers will be made aware as to just
what form the outward display of
mourning shall take. They know, how
ever, that they will wear black crepe
as sword knots for a period of thirty
days, that the flag will be at half
mast and that on the day of the flu
neral a gun will be fired at intervals
of half an hour from sunrise to sunset.
When ex-President Harrison died
some months ago, official notification
did not reach the Fort until long after
the garrison had been made acquaint-
ed with the news. In the army, no
move is taken until orders from su-
perior authority have been secured,
directing just what procedure shall be
followed as mourning observance.

MAY PRESENT CLUBS YET.
Interesting Developments Expected
From Grand Jury.

1t is quite probable that the Good
Government League will use the grand
jury this week to ascertain if the clubs
in the city have closed their bars, OF
if they are doing a Sunday business
While the attorney for the League Will
not give out any information as to his
plans for the future it is thought that
the club question will be taken up.
The, grand jury has not yet been call
ed together and no subpoenas have
been sent out. In the event that an
investigation of the clubs is made the
session will be an interesting one. The
superintendent of the clubs would be
summoned and the question as to the
condition of the bar of each club on
Sundays would be asked.
Quite a number of saloon men will be
presented. and it is understood large
number of them will be accused of hav-
ing their bars open last Sunday. The
League spies continue active and are
piling up evidence against violators of
the Sunday tipping house law. 1t is
not known that any of the sports are
to be presented.

ACTOR TOOK A TUMBLE.
Brought Down the Idols Altar, the
House and the Curtain.

mouse una the
John Henderson as abel Conn.," a
character in "The Idols Eye" did
a stunt at the matinee performance
yesterday that was not on the pro-
house, along with the curtain and the
actor. Henderson, who plays the lead
ing male part, character formerly
portrayed by Frank Daniels, took a
tumble IN the second act.
AS Conn, an American aeronaut and
magician travelling in India for the
purpose of learning new tricks from
the Hindoo jugglers, the actor had to
do some queer stunts. He was in the
interior of the Temple of the Ruby
when the mishap occurred that cut
short the second act. The Idol with
one ruby eye left, the one of hatred
according to the story, had been rest
ing quietly on the stage altar. It's eye
Of love had already been stolen by a
kleptomaniac, who had been drummed
out of Highland regiment, and there
were other foreigners who were seek
ing to deSpoil the Idol of the second
eye.
A Cuban tobacco planter, his pretty
daughter and an American novelist
had tried in vain to get the eye out
of the image, and decided to take the
idol as well as the eye. Conn entered
the temple a moment after the theft
had been committed, and saw what
had been done. The worshipers were
approaching, and Conn realized that he
would be suspected as the robber and
slain, If the heathens entered the tenn
pie and found their god out of the
way. 1t is written in the opera that
Conn shall jump upon the altar and
play the part of the idol.
Henderson was ready and willing TO
follow the instructions given with the
lines and made light spring for the
altar just as the worshipers entered
the temple chanting. Either the prop
erty man had not fixed the altar prop
erly or Henderson jumped with too
much force. Slowly the altar gave
way and fell backwards. A drop cur
tain did not stop it and the frail struc-
ture went to the floor with a crash
The actor went rolling into the wings
and the curtain had to be rung down.
Those who attended the matinee per-
formance never learned what would
have happened had the accident not
occurred. Another altar had to be
made and the stage carpenter didn't
have time before the last act OF the
production.

Provide Against the Day of Need.

What are you living for, anyway?
Working for? Planning for? THE glory

to be hoped; but, in less exalted
sense, you are, if you have the natural
prudence of the human race, or even
the instinct of many animals, provid-
ing, to some extent, for the future. No
man, in his sober senses, deliberately,
Intentionally and habitually spends all
his income with no thought of to-mor-
row, or of a rainy day, or coming re-
sponsibilities of wife and children, or
of sickness and old age, and six feet
of Gods green earth, somewhere. To
accumulate resources against day of
need is as natural for man as it is for a
squirrel to lay up nuts. How better can
you make this provision, provide the
savings for a rainy day or for the pro-
lection of your family, or for your own
old age, than by policy in the Mass
achusetts Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany? This company, organized 1851,
solid as a rock, safe as human ingenu-
ity can make any institution safe, Of
fers insurance which has advantages
no other company doing business in
this state offers. Its policies are clean,
plainly written and honest; they con-
tain in black and white the exact
amount of cash available at the end
of any year after the second. The COM
pany pays handsome dividends every
year, which reduce the cost, increase
the insurance, or remain with the COM
pany as cash at interest to hasten the
maturity of the policy. Dividends left
with the company may be withdrawn
