A JOLLY
PLAY

Mr.. Plaster of Paris at the opera
house last night afforded two and a
half hours of side splitting mirth,
that has seldom been equaled in this
city The company is strong one
and several of them are real stars
The plot of the play itself is a whole
evening of fun. A beautiful grass
widow who has succeeded in passing
the ordeal Of the Oklahoma divorce
court in four minutes, lands silly
old doctor as her second venture in the
matrimonial world Her former hus-
band who for good reasons had sailed
under large number of aliases, mys.
teriously disappeared, but was much
alive and bent on making the life of
the second husband miserable. Mr..
P. j. Mcnamara as Nels Nelson as q
"pire Swedish Faller," succeeded in
getting the old man into all sorts of
troubles. Through the directions of
the new wife of DR.. Binks, this Swede
threw the doctor out of his own house
and from start to finish gave him a
fair chance for nervous prostration
This character is the principal part of
the play and is one of the most origi.
nal, numerous and jolly presentations
of Swedish life now on the American
stage The part is superb and the
playing real. The f.llow who can
not laugh at Nels Nelson is ready for
the undertaken The otner characters
are strong and we'll presented. One
of the specialties was the elocutionary
work of Miss Mamie Reel, who imi
tated the notes of birds to perfection.
Tais feature alone is worth the price
of the show.

st. Louis. Mo, March 20.-Attorney
Judson, speaking for the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen and
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
gave attention today TO the claims
advanced by the railroad that the
grievances in the case originated
with defendants in the case and not
with the employees of the railroad.
He took up the right of the men to
take advice upon their course of
conduct. After reading the decisions
which recognized the right of labor
ing men to associate and combine, he
argued that the right to combine car
ried with it the right to take advice
from those with whom they are uni
ted.

FEAR THAT WORST IS TO
COME IN HIGH WATER

Nicksburg, Miss, March 20.-With
all the previous high water marks
already passed at several points be-
tween Vicksburg and Greenville. and
the crest of the wave not yet in sight,
anxiety for safety of the levees
guarding the Nazoo delta becomes
greater. Several weak places have
appeared and grave fears are enter
tanned that the worst is yet to come.
The first sign of break in the
levee on the Mississippi side is re-
ported from Duvalls, where a private
embankment gave away and the gov
ernment Ievee is in peril.
Memphis, Tenn. March 20.-In spite
of the heroic work by hundreds of
men, the levee at Pecan Point, 40
miles north, is reported as having
given away early today. The vast
column of water is rushing through
the crevasse 400 feet wide.
The reports of sufferings of people
are believed to be somewhat eNagger-
ated. Every opportunity has been
given To those remaining there TO get
out of the flooded district. but they
decline to leave.
