with q companion two years older than
himself he stole nearly $4,000 in cash

This boy is 1e years old From q

stories of the success OF this uncla
had fired the boys with a desire to try
their fortunes In this country but they
had not enough money to get to Liver
pool. They were in a position, however,
to know where they could lay their
hands on q tin box in which was to
them incalculable wealth.
"One day they took this box and ned
with. 1t to Liverpool. Before the loss
was discovered they were on the high
seas. The cable brought the news to
Newcastle lawyers. and when the boys
stepped off the gangplank here they
were met by representative of the
firm and taken into custody. Except for
the amount of their passage money and
their railroad fare from Newcastle to
Liverpool, the contents of the stolen box
were found intact.
Perhaps the natural course would
have been to turn them over to officers
of the law. who would. have returned
them to England to serve long sentences
but after talking with them the head
of the New York law firm determined
to rob a reformatory of its victims and
make the experiment that is now in
progress.

Pajama girl and other queer features,

nesday night and the occasion will be
the theater's formal opening. The piece
is said to be something of a novelty in
the way of musical entertainment, aside
from its somewhat daring scheme of
costuIaing in the first act. It contains
no chorus, in the generally accepted
meaning of the word; no marches or
counter marches and ensemble figures;
no thinking parts for pretty girls: and
is, on the whole, quite notorious for the
manner in which it utterly ignores most
of the fundamental rules laid down for
the construction of musical comedies
