 When the Daniel Sully company, which is playing at the Tabor this week, reached Denver an unusual thing happened. Miss Juliette De Grignan, who plays the role of Nellie Durker, Father Wha1en's niece, in tie Parish Priest,v went to the Brown hotel to live. Now, of course, even actors have to live somewhere, but few there be beside the headliners who squander the ghost Not much sur prise was expressed in the company, however, for it was known that Miss De Grignan is nearing the triumphant end of her career as q player, and IS soon to take more interest ill true fs- sures and hanging walls than ill practi- cal windows and prompt calls. The scene of Miss De Grignan's romance was laid in Cripple Creek, where the company played recently. A wealthy young mine owner of the district saw the play, fell desperately in love with the priests pretty niece and sought an introduction. An acquaintance swiftly became a friendship and the all too soon end of the engagement carried away Miss De Grignan an en- gagged girl. She would not break her contract with MT Su1ly: her fiance could not leave his business just now; a postponement was not to be avoided. One thing the young man could do, and that was to make his bride-to-be com fortable while she remains on the road. So he issued orders: ''None but the best that money can buy" Miss De Grig- nan bears her happiness blushingly, but seems not unpleased to be the choice of masterful man. So she is at the Brown by orders.

 It may have been forgotten by thea l tregoers that John Drew once proved | himself a hero by saving the life of | Miss Maude Adams at the risk of his own. At that time Mr. Drew was playing in Providence E. l. It was on the initial night and in the opening scene. MT. Drew and Miss Adams were occupying the stage, when the backing of the attic interior gave away and fell. Quick as thought MT. Drew threw himself in the path of the falling scenery knowing full well that if it struck Miss Adams she might re- ceive terrible injuries, if not death. He received the full weight of the top- bling piece, receiving bad cuts about the hands and face but Miss Adams escaped unhurt. For q time it was feared that the famous actor was ser iously injured. The curtain was rung down, but when Mr. Drew assured the managers that as soon as his injuries could be dressed, he would be ready to go on. The audience was requested to remain in their seats until the scene could be set again. Meantime q sur geon had been called and the numer- ous cuts which Mir Drew had received were patched up one after another. It was within half an hour after the accident that the scenery was once more in place and all was ready to proceed. When Mir Drew reappeared he was received with great enthusiasm by the house, which was quick to ap- preciate his heroic act 1t was for tunate at the time for the distinguish ed comedian that no small part of his leisure was spent in various kinds of exercise by which his body was made strong to stand the shock which he re- ceiyed.
