SAVED BY BERNHARDT's WIT.
Her whole Company Arrested to
Head on Detectives.

CHICAGO, March 10.-Two Central sta
ton detectives alighted from Pullman
coach at the Illinois Central station to-
night and after jumping into cao were
hurriedly driven to detective headquar-
ters In the pocket of each officer was
a bundle of warrants, which had served
a undue purpose. The officers had just
arrived from New Orleans and with their
appearance was made known a story
which has been kept secret for many
weeks.
The secret was that Sarah Bernhardt
and NJ Coqueliu were both arrested on
charges Of disorderly conduct on the
night of their last performance at the
Illinois Theatre in Chicago and that they
had been prisoners of the city UP to
a few days ago, being accompanied on
their travels by Chicago detectives At
New Orleans the players We're released
and last night the two officers who have
been with the company returned to Chi
cago.
Not only have the Divine Sarah" and
NJ. Coquelin been under surveillance, but
so was every member of their company
and with the withdrawal of the detec-
tives all are made free.
The arrest of Bernhard was made on
the stage of the Illinois Theatre, behind
the scenes, a few minutes before her ap-
pearance on the stage as Camille The
arrest Of Coquelin and other members of
the company followed as quickly as two
lieutenants and half a dozen detectives
could serve the warrants.
The arrests were arranged for by Bern
hardt herself in order to protect her COM
pany from an invasion by a host of pri-
vate detectives or constables who were
clamoring at the stage entrance for ad-
COquelins leading man, Pierre Deene-
bough. The constables threatened to take
Deenebough off the stage, and for a time
until the arrival of city detectives, it
would end IN the curtain being rung down
on a stage hled with constables and pri-
Vate detectives.
Bernhardt's quick wit in appealing to
Mayor Harrison and the police depart
ment, and having dummy warrants
put a check on any plans formed by the
constable as they could not serve their
warrants on people who We're already the
city S prisoners.
As a matter of protection. Bernhardt
and her company were kept under arrest
until a few days ago, when it was decided
that there was no longer any danger of a
raid by constables.
Inc story back of the theatrical arrests
goes back TO several weeks before Bern
hardt's departure from Chicago. Pierre
DeenehOugh. an actor of considerable
reputation abroad who has for years been
Coquelins leading man. was arrested in
the offices of the Hotel kimball, on Clark
Street, on a serious charge. He was
taken before Judge Hoagland, but was
allowed to make p cash deposit for his ap-
pearance at a later date, when the case
was TO be heard.

DERIDED BY STEAMER AGENTS,
The New Custom House Rule Not
Likely to BE Obeyed.

NEW YORK. March 10.-The new Gus
tom house rule that forbids the relatives
and friends of incoming voyagers from
meeting them on the pier while baggage
is being examined was widely discussed
yesterday by the steamship agents mere.
The new rule does not bar visitors from
a pier when a ship arrives but 1t Dars
them from that portion of the pier where
the passengers and baggage are beihs
landed.
Friends OF incoming voyagers must wait
on the street end of the pier until the
voyagers have been officially passed by
the customs inspectors.
The general opinion of the agents is
that this order would obtain about three
weeks. They regard it as an impossi-
bility TO keep the friends and relatives OF
yoyagers from meeting and greeting them
the moment they arrive. Some were out
spoken yesterday in the declaration that
it was an imposition on the voyagers and
their friends
James a. Wright. Second Vice President
Of the American Line said: Il see no use
Of such rule. That is all l care to say
about it"
IF this rule can be carried out it will
be a good thing both for the passengers
and for the steamship line" said John
Lee, general agent here of the White star
Line. The question is, can it be carried
out under the political system OF this
country?
Suppose now that ]. p. Morgan or some
equally influential man should land from
one of our steamships at the White star
pier, and suppose that his friends come
down to meet him. Would Colonel Storey,
the chief of staff, have the backbone to
refuse them? That is what / want to
know How long will it be possible TO
keep everybody off the piers! RemeHl-
Der, if you let one past the line estaD,
Iished and among the passengers, you VIII
have to let all.
Il think the rule is good, but L see
no chance for it's permanent enforcement
For women coming over without escort on
the steamships and expecting to De met
at the piers by their friends, 1t might
seem a hard rule. But such women are
generally in charge of a stewardess or
some one on the ship, who looks aIter
them. In Liverpool the rule is obeyed 10
the letter Here its enforcement Will be
very hard work"
Gustav H Schwab, of the North Ger
man Lloyd. said it would take more than
a picket fence to keep people from meet
ing their friends as soon as they landed.
He declared that human nature would not
stand the separation by few feet OF
relatives and friends who had been parted
for months He said the pier visitors
would be apt to rush to meet their friends,
rule or no rule.

An expert on opal mining has recent.
~ explained how the opal Is judged as
to quality and deslrabnity. First. he
says. color is of the greatest impor-
tance. Red fire. or red in combination
with yellow. hluc and green. are the
best. Blue by itself is quite valuelcss,
and the green opal Is not of great value
unless the color Is very vivid and the
pattern very good. The color must be
<rue-that is to say IL must not run in
streaks or patches, alternating with a
colorless or inferior quality.
Pattern Is described as being an i'm
portant factor, the several varieties be-
known as pin fire" when the grain Is
very small. harlequin" when the color
Is all In small squares, the more reg.
ular the better, and the flash fire" OF
clash opal when the color shows as n
single fash or in very large pattern
Harlequin is the most common and is
also popularity considered the most
beautiful. When the squares OF color
are regular and show as distinct, mi.
mute checks Of red, yellow blue and
green, Il Is considered magnificent
Some stones show better on edge than
