Molly Pitcher"

Since the announcement was hrst made that Kathryn Kidder would star this sea- son as Molly Pitcher" the question has often been asked why this famous his toric character was never before intro- duced to the stage. The wonderment is natural enough, for Molly Pitcher, the he- roine of the revolution, Is certainly full of strong dramatic possibilities. Kathryn Kidder will first make known to local theatre patrons the merits Of Moilie Pitcher, as a play at the Jefferson The atre next Wednesday and Thursday and Thursday matinee. Miss Kidder Is said to be supported by an unusually strong company. large scenic equipment is promised, being a representation of the famous battle of Monmouth, where Molly distinguished herself by loading and fir ing the cannon throughout the engage ment

Miss Bob White,

Miss Marguerite Sylva will long be re- membered by all who saw her last season when she made her first appearance here. For dainty winsomness few artist equal Miss Sylva, and it is doubtful if there is one on the stage today who can excell her in these qualities. Tonight Miss Sylva will again be seen when she sings the little role at the Jefferson Theatre in Willard Spensers latest success. Miss Bob White.'' The entire company is highly praised by the press. The New Or leans Times-Democrat few days ago said:
 Ut may be doubted if there was a weak feature in the supporting cast There were good voices and a bevy of pretty girls in the chorus, while the prin- cipals seemed to include rather more class and quality than an adequate pre- sentation of this oit of musical patch work demanded Miss Alice L. Campbell, who appeared as Goidsirod, the daughter of the Quaker farmer, has a particularly fine soprano voice. and her efforts were enthusiastically applauded.

CONVENIENT TIME FOR
 SCHULERS TO HAVE FIRE.

"If these books were not burned up 10 defy the court s order and impede Robin son. then I say it was a very convenient time for the Schulers to have a fire. They needed 1t badly. Why this secrecy? Why burn them Sunday night after all the clerks had gone, if their deeds were not oark?
 These men seem to have no more idea of the true duty of a director to stock holder than a Hottentot has to applied mathematics or treatise on astronomy. MT. Robinson had no right to control anything-he only had the pitiful right to know. and this was denied him. It Is like a man with large f1ocks and herds taking away from another his own little lamb.
 ''We have done everything we could. My client has resorted to all his legal rights He got the order of the court d- recting them to allow him his rights, and now. while it Is a disagreeabe duty, I deem that I should thus bring the mat ter to your honor's attention. Whatever you do will be satisfactory to me and to MT. Robinson"
 MT. Weakley concluded by commenting on the fact that at this time, when great industrial combinations were going in the district, it would be an opportune moment to let them understand the rights of stockholders. He thanked the judge for his patience throughout the trial.
 Judge Wilkinson announced that he would render a decision Wednesday morning, but if MT. Tillman was not in the city, then it would be postponed.

FANCY DRESS BALL
 AT THE COUNTRY CLUB.

Notwithstanding the exceedingly cold weather last evening there was a full at- tendance at the country club. The occa- sion was the fancy dress ball which the members had looked forward to with great eagerness and enthusiasm. Not everyone present attended in fancy cos tune and masque. as the secretary of the club had requested but a large num- Der responded to the spirited occasion and lent to the affair a truly carnival aspect The guests arrived promptly and before 10 o'clock the grand march began and Little Bo-Peep coquetted most be- witchingly with the sombre serious monk nearby. The Spanish toreador and the demure little Dutch peasant girl made an equally picturesque couple. The masques were soon laid aside and the young people enjoyed dancing to the full est extent There were number of vis- iting belles present who claimed large share of attention.
 Refreshments were served toward mid night and another brilliant and altogeth- CT delightful affair was added to the sea- sons events at the country club.

The Old Homestead,

This will be the sixteenth annual sea- son of the presentation of "The Old Homestead" to the theatregoers of this country, and it is safe to say that there has not been an American drama in the last decade that approaches it in success, and the public are still as anxious to see 1t as ever, because othing so de- lights us in after years as the reawak- enng of the memories of our early life. Nothing revivifies our faith in human kind as re-association with the compan- ions of our boyhood, when ties and friend ships were welded together that time can never rend. They may be resting in the slumber of forgetfulness, but one glimpse of nature like the setting of "The Old Homestead" is like an open book wherein are inscribed the follies and pleasures of boyhood
 To this fountain of youth. then, we go again to drink in those tender memories and absorb again the wholesome lessons of honesty devotion and brotherly love.
 And all 'these homely pictures are framed in an atmosphere that is irress- table. Every suggestion of pathos Is frightened with happy tinge of comedy that is inimitable and we smile through our tears. Of Denham Thompson's imper- sonation of Joshua Whitcomb everyone knows; he is the same sturdy old New England Yankee as in former years. He will personally appear with a company of exceptional merit, including the Old Homestead double ouartette; and the same attention to scenic detail as in the past is promised.
 "The Old Homestead' will be the offer ing at the Jefferson Theatre next Friday and Saturday and Saturday matinee.

Vaudeville at Auditorium.

With very large and appreciative audience present the Auditorium opened last night with a bill, every act of which made a hit The bill was so chosen as to make comedy the principal feature and it filled the expectations of every one who saw it.
 The house was well filled, nearly all the seats down stairs being taken and the two balconies being we'll filed The audience appreciated the show from start to finish and demonstrated the fact by repeatedly calling the performers before the lights.
 The bill was headed by Pauline Hall, the comic opera star, who sang selec- tions from operas in which she has ap- peared as leading woman. The best was saved for the last It was the lulia- by from "Carmine," and was sung in the same manner and with as much earnest ness as in the days when Miss Hall lead company and had a large chorus back of her
 It fell to Mazuz and Mazette to make really the biggest hit of the evening The Tramp and Breakman" were billed as comedy acrobats and filled in every way the title. Howe, Wallen and Walt CTS, the three musicians and comedians, have bunch of unusual happenings and eccentric trick playing The team has the unusual ability of being real musi- clans something rarely found in the vaudeville teams. A large clock on the wall furnished banjo and two stringed instruments and a gas jet hanging from the ceiling furnished a brass band The act is full of little specialties which kept the audience laughing
 With large part of the audience Woodford's Monkey circus was the most popular. The feature of the act was the dog Jumping from a ladder many feet above the stage into the net below. The rest of the act was good. all the animals being well trained and well managed
 Whistling Tom Brown was all expected. He whistled the two tunes at once and then asked the audience to untangle them for him. He whistled several well known songs with variations and runs in them, the execution being very good.
 Forester and Floyd, a singing and dancing team, introduced some clever gags. They sing well and Miss Floyd has a neat dance. The English character song was the best.

their salaries from $500 to $10O month at
 a time when. MT. Robinson threatened to sue for his salary.
 ''They fixed up the books somehow" he said. 'T don't believe even Schuler
 would claim he worked for $100 a
 month. After Robinson got position in the Joliet Company, then up went the Schu1ers' salaries again to $500.
 ''The burned cash book and ledger is the j only book which would show the amount of stock in the Alabama Steel and Wire Company issued to the Schulers for tthe Joliet stock. The Schulers' father has Es700OOo of stock. How did he get it and lhow much did he pay for it? Only these destroyed books would show it" i He spoke of Mir. Rich's little excur- ,sion'' here to pay $25,100 and ridiculed the idea
 Chicago has made fearful contribu- lfion to us," he said. implying the Schu- Hers. 'It was MT. George Schulers clever mind.which devised the scheme of split ting up the amount of s25, 100 into odd sums so that the office boy would not lxnow that they had it" He dwelt on the fact of the Schulers sending large sums of money to their father to buy stockstand bonds with, and spoke of their being 'overdrawn with the company thousands of dollars "It could never be shown now why and for what 1t was all turned to ashes"
 "But I have shown enough continued MT. Wealley, ito show that something is rotte in Denmark. If we have found out this much without these books, what would we not have found if we could have obtaineds them?
