Mr.. Jaeger. who is short In stature and
stout In figure, was one OF the earliest
visitors TO the pier. and after the ship
had berthed begged of the customs au-
thorities that he might at once go on
board. The immigration officers closely
questioned him. and before the pair were
allowed to greet each other the woman
was also asked TO tell her story.
When they met they manifested the
deepest affection. They embraced each
other. and as the man kissed the woman
on either cheek he murmured, Elsie!

mingled confusion and pleasure.

FOR BENEFIT
OF The DAY
NURSERY
Two Successful and Enjoyable
Entertainments at EIOiSe Under
Auspices Of Providence Assn.

The large and attractive ball room OF
the Eloise was. yesterday afternoon and
evening. the scene Of two dramatic per-
formances. by young society people for
the benefit OF that very necessary and
most worthy charity. The Providence Day
Nursery association. The time chosen for
the presentation OF these plays. just on
the threshold OF the lenten season, was
particularly happy and as consequence,
society came out, In large numbers, and
filed the improvised theatre both after
noon and evening.
In the afternoon a bright little comedy
entitled ITO Oblige Benson" was present.
ed by the following cast OF characters:
Mr.. Benson, barrister. Mr.. Livingston
Ham; Mr.. Trotter Southdown his friend
Mr.. Henry A. Barker. Mr.. John Meridith.
Benson's pupil, MIR. G.. Il. Buxton. Jr.: +:
Mrs. Benson, Mrs. w r. Chandler. Mrs.
Trotter Southdown, Mrs. w. w. Weeden.
The comedy is an exceedingly amusing
and interesting bit OF farce and affords
ample opportunity for the display OF
same very clever acting. The Jealous
husband. "Mr. Trotter Southdown" por-
trayed by Mr. Barker. is the chief char
acter I'm the play and his excltable per-
formances creates no end OF amusing and
embarrassing situations. which are finally
Strengthened out. however, and all moves
happily ever after.
As Mrs. Trotter Southdown," Mrs. w.
w. Weeden made a great hit and de-
lighted her friends by her really excel
lent work. The other characters In the
play were also very creditable In each
instance and the play moved 10 its close
without a flaw. which was due. In large
measure. 90 Miss Louise Hoppln. who. as
stage manager. was Indispensable TO the
success OF the performance.
Previous TO the play number OF recita-
tions were gIVen, m most dUftEhtfui and
thoroughly artistic way by Mrs. Andrew
Robeson, Of Boston.
Mrs Robesons selections included
number of Eugene Fields charming
poems of child life. also one or two Sc
lections from James whitcomb Riley and
other popular writers. The selections were
chosen With view ~ pleasing the chill

leagues. and for that reason the dates
agreed upon by the committees were not
announced. According to the present
plan. however, the National league sea-
son will start April Is. and the American
league on April 22; each organization Will
play 140 games and end It's championship
season on or about Sept, q or 2s. While
there will be some conflicting dates. these
will occur largely through choice.
The American league season will start
as follows: New York at Washington,
Chicago at ST. Louis, Boston at Phladel-
phia, Cleveland at Detroit
Scheduling the New York team 20 start
the play at Washington gives the Amerl-
can'league additional time 10 complete It's
stands I'm Gotham. The Senators will re-
turn to New York. where the American
league will open the home series on OF
about May l.
The reason for the early start OF the
National league Is caused by the fact that
the jump from 81. Louis TO Pittsburg re-
quires more than one day. while the
American leaguers can go from the
Mound city TO Chicago. Detroit or Cleve-
land In time To play the next day. This
difference costs the National league five
DAYS time.
