noon in Carnegie nall. The auditorium

which were conducted by Col. E. J.
Higgins, chief secretary of the Saliva

musical programme made up of the
favorite hymns of the dead woman
and of eulogies of her life and of the
good she had done for mankind. The
grief of Commander Boeth-Tucker
was most poignant and as he knelt by
the bier sobbing pathetically, the great
er part of the vast congregation Wept
with him.
Gen. Ballington Booth. of the Vo1un-
teers of America, did not remain for
the memorial services. Herbert Booth,
his brother, who was formerly COM
mander in chief of the Salvationists in
Australia, at the request of the gen.
eral, remained to represent the family
and if possible to say few words to
the audience. Herbert Booth twice
asked permission from Commander
Booth Tucker to speak. but each time
it was refused, The ceremonial par

there is a majority for either of them

At St. Paul Theaters

At last somebody has written a mu-
steal comedy and located it on Ameri-
can soil. It's very title, "The Tender
foot" tells us that.
Richard earle is the man who dared
to make this departure. He is to be
commended for his originality.
An unusually large Sunday night au-
d1ence witnessed the production of
The Tenderfoot' at the Metropolitan
last evening, and greatly enjoyed Mr..
carries individual performance. Much
pleasure was also afforded by the ap-
pearance, the action and the singing
OF the chorus, by the characteristic
costumes, and the general color
scheme, the stage settings and the at
mosphere of the entire production.
Mr. earle himself is very amusing.
He delivers his lines with an appre-
clat1Ve zest that sends them home, his
antics are invariably quaint and comic,
ana ne Is, above all, unconventional.
His funny stunts" are not of the
t1me-Worn stripe. "The Tenderfoot"
never lags while Mr.. earle himself is
on the stage.
But it does when he is not. In spite
OF Mr.. Carries originality in providing
some clever dialogue and in weaving
a. plot fraught with more interest than
the average musical comedy can boast

For Mr.. Carries American atmos-

gotten away from the beaten track
and has opened up possibilities in
equally prolific fields.
In Edmund Stanley. the tenor, and
Henry Norman, of the "bogie" man
fame, Mr.. earle has competent sup
port. Stanleys pure tenor voice is
as fresh as of yore and he sings "a
Soldier of Fortune" in the first act
effectively.
1t is to be regretted that Mr.. Nor

appear to the best advantage. His

GENTLY clean-minded not to desire t.

GENTLY clean-m minded not to desire to
read a book simply because its inn
morality happens to be heralded. But
it is doubtful if the majority are suf-
ficiently strong minded to confess they
have not read book that, because OF
public announcement, is obviously UP
for discussion. Moreover, the action OF
the librarian piques every individual
who prides himself on being his own
literary censor. The impulse Of that
Individual is to judge for himself
Hence the increased sales of the book.
AS matter Of fact there was no
need Of withdrawing this particular
book on the score of immortality, for
it has no literary worth. Whatever
was the authors intent, the result has
been merely cheap sensationalism. A
ten minutes examination would have
convinced the Omaha library authors
ties Of it's worthlessness, and the book
would never have obtained a place on
the library shelves. Neither would IL
have been Haunted in the face of the
reading public.
The conundrum of the libraries today
seems to be, not is it literature, but Is
>it moral? Yet a literary test would
seem to suffice; for literature deserv-
ing the name may picture immortality
but it cannot be immoral unless the
eternal verities are immoral. The i'm
moral is the false and the worthless.
The Omaha library is to be congratu-
lated on wedding out at least one vol
ume that answers such a description,
only it is to be regretted that 1t was
done in such a fashion as to fasten
public attention on it. Too much adj
vertisement accompanied the condem-
nation.

ashore Acres at the Grand.

Shore Acres" is a phase of Amer
lean life transferred to the stage. 1t
is not conception; not what men and
women might be, but what they are in
a certain locality.
American life has many phases and
1t is questionable whether any one
play or book could embody them all,
One need never have lived in Maine to
feel that the types presented in this
play are peculiarly American. Amer
leans are much the same the country
over, whether at dress functions or
on the farm. One is merely the poll
ished and the other the unpublished.
Between the two there are the various
grades Of intellectual development,
but in all the. classes there are the
same indef1nable qualities that stamp
them thoroughly American.
1t may be said in support of the
statement that Shore Acres" is the
most representative American play, if
not the best, that the ancestors of the
class Of people represented in this
play were. the builders of the nation
and the same spirit of these New Eng
landers exists in all Americans.
The average playgoer has seen
"Shore Acres" once at least, and likes
to see 1t once more. The characters
are homely, but they are thoroughly
human. They don't do anything but
what the average person would do
The story is simple and natural. There
are no mock heroicS and the only sop
to those who like little melodramatic
thrill is the lighthouse scene and the
"Liddy Ann" in the storm. Some fat
manager must have induced Herne to
put that scene in by making that time
worn assertion that 1.-THE public want
it,
iYntA
Acres" is well balanced, and in the
main quite capable. There is a ten
dency among the principals to talk
too fast, thereby losing much of the
force of the lines, for that quaint
Yankee drawl is particularly telling at
times. The information oftimes means
more than the words.
A noticeable and not particularly
commendable feature is that most Of
the women of the company do their
hair up after the latest fashion, an
incongruity not designed by the play
wright. Also the use of the word
lobster" 1t doesn't belong and was
not in the original lines.
James Z. Galloway, as the loVable
Nat Berry, Is quite acceptable. Atkins
Lawrence, as Martin Berry, somewhat
overplays the part and does not look
it as we'll as he might without the
mustache.
Possibly these are little things to
criticise, but these roles have come to
be so well known that they should be
played according to the standard al
ready set.
May McCabe, as Mrs. Ann Berry, is
splendid. She should look more nat
ural, as at present she doesn't appear
to be but a few years older than the
Young woman who plays the part of
her daughter.
The children of the company, and
those who trained them, deserve much
praise. They are not obtrusive and
the lines allotted to them they deliver
naturally.
If we must have children on the
stage these are models for some of
these our melodramatists. Especially
good is young Benjamin Turner, who
plays the boy, Nat Berry.
The settings are adequate.

aTbe Tioer Lilies at the Star.

The attraction at the Star this week
is entitled to a prominent position in
the Al class. This same show was
good last season, but it is better this
year. The patrons of this theater have
witnessed shows for the past two
weeks which have been merely passa-
BILE in the main and this company is
pleasant relief from the hackneyed and
commonplace. Every member of the
"Tiger Lilies" is entitled to share
of the praise which the production
merits.
It isn't often that the chorus gets an
encore on Sunday afternoon, but even
the gods" stood for a repetition OF
one or two numbers which the young
women performed alone. AS a rule,
the gallery looks down upon musical
numbers as an unwarranted Interrupt
ton and promptly Kisses any attempt
to have them repeated.
Another commendable feature Of this
entertainment is the manner in which
1t is staged, for the scenery is more
than a mere excuse The costumes, too,
and the lighting effects are what they
should be.
It is not one-man performance
either. There are several good come
good. "Edustus," the equilibrist is
phenomenon in his class. A more re-
markable act of the kind has not been
seen in this theater. The Coopers are
better this season than formerly
Cooper's mouth alone is novelty, but
more funny sayings emanate from 1t
this year than last.
An unusual musical act Is presented
by Howe, Berry and Walters, all three
of whom are excellent musicians.
Berry is well known to patrons of bur-
lesaue and is a comedian of the better
class. AS the sheriff, in the first and
afterpieces, he Is fine. Another unus-

SCOTLAND YARD TO THE FORE.

There was captured in Chicago this
Northampton Bank of London, who alb
seconded with $4,000. Although the
chase lasted fourteen months, and al
though the pursued and his pursuers
crossed two continents in this not mer-
ry game of hare and hounds, the story
would attract little attention in this
country, perhaps, were it not for the
fact that two detectives from Scotland
yard made the capture. In this lies the
interest of the case. Because of this
must the achievement occasion sur
prise. .
For America. UP on it's Sherlock
Holmes, has naturally been down on
Scotland yard. It has carried about
for a number of years now mental
picture Of London's official detectives
cringing before a tall, lank man, clad
in dressing gown, a contemptuous
expression on his face and a COCAINE
syringe in his hand. 1t has come to
detectives drove madly about London
in hanson cabs, accomplishing nothing,
the tall lank man has sat in his smoke
begrimed chambers and deduced facts
concerning criminals upon which those
detectives greedily bounced and which
they dishonesty appropriated, permit
ting the tall, lank one none of the
credit. And naturally it has formed its
opinion Of Scotland yard accordingly.
But here is a detective story that is
certainly not according to Doyle, but
which bears the stamp of truth, and
Scotland yard detectives are the heroes.
To be sure the Chicago capture seems
to have been the result Of speed rather
than deduction. It would have been
more brilliant achievement, of course,
had the Scotland yard sleuths merely
sat in their office and by system of
deduction arrived at the conclusion
that an absconding bank cashier bound
for America would naturally seek CHI
cago. But, after all, it is the result
that counts. The Scotland yard men
have made good" to quote the argot
Of the streets. A system of deduction
would add to the interest of their feat.
but the fact that they ACCOMPLISHED If
without a system does not make it any
less feat.
Mr.. Holmes intends to deduce once
more in the interest of law and order
and of Doyle. But it is probable that
caustic comments on Scotland yard
methods will no longer be received
with acclaim by the American reading
public. For the detectives of this Lon
don institution have proved beyond a
shadow Of doubt that occasionally.
at least, they accomplish. That they do
1t without the aid of cocaine syringe
and a system of deduction is a credit
rather than reproach. The American.
public believes in fair play, and it Is
probable hereafter that they will take
the Holmes attacks on Scotland yard
with grain of salt.
