At the Boyd.

~ ~
Liberty Bellies applies perhaps as we'll
as any other name that could be suggested
for the piece which was given it's first
production in this city last evening at the
Boyd theater and equally any other name
would be as apt. Almost any old name
would ft and none would be comprehen-
sive. The piece is Of the class now desig-
mated generically as musical comedy and
It is all of that. There is music and there
is comedy in abundance, and it is dispensed
m a most pleasing manner AS 10 usual
in the musical comedy there is no par
ticular attempt at consequent plot, and in
this case more so than ordinarily. AS to
the music there is nothing particularly
striking or pretentious, but it is all bright
and pleasing and the lines are bright and
witty throughout.
Pretty girls and clever girls, most OF
whom are both pretty and clever, and all
Of whom sing we'll. form the predominant
element Of the Liberty Bellies" AS a
chorus the girls sing we'll and look be-
witchingly pretty and several Of them APP
pear to advantage in specialties.
Harry Gilfoil is an important factor in
the fun-making and the general action Of
the piece, and is afforded opportunities for
his we'll known limitations. Harry Linton
and John Gilroy are the comedians, and
contribute materially to the enjoyment OF
the audience. Augusta Close, Katie Rooney
and Violet Dale each had several songs
in which they earned hearty applause and
the Mccoy sisters in a song and dance
made a decided hit.
The house was as large as the theater
would accommodate and a number OF women
stood throughout the performance in the
side aisles and at the foyer entrances.
Liberty Bellies will be repeated tonight.

FRlENOLY SUGGESTION TAKES Dee ROOT
Deputy DeIOuch Debntes Probability
of what May Prove More Ostcn-

Prince Henry.

PARIS, Nov. i6.-Deputy Deloncle has
been interviewed with regard to his state
ment at the banquet Of the Industrial. Com
mercial and Economical society Friday.
that he has received information that the
st. Louis Exposition commission had de-
cided to invite President Loubet to visit
America. He says the matter was not in
tended to be made public yet. Two years
ago he mentioned to the exposition ofhcials
the possibility OF a visit from President
Loubet. 1t was a mere after-dinner re-
mark to which he did not attach much i'm
portance. He was surprised. he says, when
he received Information from st. Louis that
the idea might materialize and that a
proposal to extend a formal invitation to
President Loubet to visit the exposition
was being seriously considered.
why II Is Possible.
II attribute this action" NJ. Delonole
continues, ITO a warm and profound liking
on the part Of Americans for France. es-
pecially since the Rochambeau fetes. The
journey Of Prince Henry Of Prussia to the
United States has also made many Amer
lean friends OF France feel that IL the Ger
man emperor thought proper to send his
brother to the launching of a yacht, Presi-
dent Loubet might not be Indifferent TO
the Louisiana Purchase centenary.
There are few events in the history Of
France more glorious than the cesslon Of
Louisiana by Napoleon Bouaparte when he
was first consul. The ST. Louis Exposition
commission doubtless believes that the best
way of showing Americas gratitude to
France would be to invite the president Of
the Third French republic to the centenary
celebration OF this act Of the first republic.
The Journey would be quite constitutional,
Tor presidents exist in the visits to Russia
OF the late President Faure and of Presi-
dent Loubet himself. Il has been said that
King Edward may go TO the st. Louis ex-
position and it is probable that the king
OF the Belgians will also pay the EXPOSE
tlon a visit. If President Loubet goes he
would certainly make a more triumphant
trip than did Prince Henry Of Prussia

CHICAGO. Nov. 16.-One man was killed
and q dozen men. women and children, more
or less seriously injured in a collision to-
night between a Western avenue electric
train and a Chicago. Burlington & Quincy
freight train, at the Eighteenth street
crossing. The motor and trailer, which
made up the electric train, we're crowded
with passengers and it seems a miracle
that so many escaped instant death.
The dead:
HUGH CURRAN, passenger on street car.
The injured:
Joseph Dedick, side injured and left leg
badly crushed.
Miss Mary Dedick, both arms broken and
body bruised.
Joseph Dedick, ir., left shoulder dislo-

Alex Langford. conductor OF trailer. four
ribs broken and severely cut and bruised
about body. y.r, - e,..r
J. H.. Egan, conductor motor car, right
leg broken.
Mistake of n FIaEman.
A mistake Of the fagman at the crossing
was responsible for the accident. The
freight, which consisted of forty-two cans,
with an engine at either end, broke in two
as 1t neared Western avenue. The front
part Of the train passed the crossing and
the fiagman not noticing the remaining
portion OF the train coming at full speed,
half a block away, pulled up the gates and
gave the signal that the crossing was clear.
The electric train, which had been waiting
for the train to pass, started to cross the
tracks and was hit squarely in the middle
by the last half Of the freight train. Both
OF the street cars were overturned in the
ditch by the collision. Several of the pas
sengers noticed the danger in time to jump
before the accident happened. but the
greater portion were damned in the doors
Of the cars unable to get out. When the
two trains came together the passengers
were thrown in every direction.
The iagman and men in charge Of the
street car have been placed under arrest.
