WAR STORIES HIS HOBBY.
Veteran Has Son Arrested for WAX
ing Him Night After Night to
Tell New Yarns.

John ]. Mitchell, of New York. a
watchman and former soldier in the
confederate army, had his son Henry
of disorderly conduct. When the son,
tall, slim man 33 years old, was ar
raigned in the West side police court
his aged father stepped upon the stand
and tremendously saluted the court
whats the trouble?" asked Magis.

began the old warrior.
"He amuses himself by waking his
old dad up in the middle of the night
asking him to tell him war stories"
The prisoner smiled sheepishly.
But does he do this often?" asked
the court.
"For weeks at time, and that's too
long for an old man to be disturbed.
Why, he's got so now when he gets me
up he goes and wakes his sisters and
tells 'em to come in and hear their old
daddy tell war stories Now, the girls
have work to do, and this breaks 'em
up as much as it does me-
What have you got to say about
this?" the prisoner was asked.
Its true" he admitted.
20, he wouldn't deny 1t; the boy is
too truthful for that" interjected the
complainant, proudly.
He's not a bad boy ordinarily, but
he does like to hear war stories. One

thinking it was Yankee spy. and
how the whole brigade, hearing the
shot, turned out in the dead of night
and began blazing away in the dark"
That's shame" declared the court
"Why don't you let your father alone,
Mitchell, and act like a man."
"I'll quit" said the prisoner.
How long will you agree to let me
sleep?" asked his father.
"A year" And with this under.
standing the prisoner received another
chance.
Its this way" said the young mans
sister. when Henry gets the war
story fever none of us can sleep. Not
that he is quarrelsome, quite the con

as is to be found In even his extern
siye repertoire. and In this part the
great actor has many opportunities OF
showing to what height he can soar.
Last evening he used these advantages
to the full. his picturesque and vivid
impersonation Of the part holding his
audience with fascination which 1t
Is given % but few to exercise. AM
other phase OF his many-sided charac-
ter was displayed In the transition from
the magnificence Of the statesman TO
the quietly dignified, seml-ascetic life
OF the prelate. The final scene Of all
carried out with the greatest historiaI
accuracy, is In Itself revelation Of
the resources which are at Sir Henrys
command. The tragic note which is
struck in the scene IL intensified by
the bursting OF thunderstorm over the
cathedral, In the transcept Of which
the murder takes place, while the APP
pearance OF Rosamund, who throws
herself upon the body Of the dead
archbishop is an effect which fittingly
brings to close perhaps the finest
scene in the play. The Rosamund Of
Miss Mabel Hackney was In every
respect finished performance,
Throughout, her devotion TO Beckett Ia
most marked. and was expressed with
great fidelity. The naughty and re-
vengeful Queen Aleanor was imper-
sonated by Mrs. Cecil Raleigh, and she
acquitted herself well, particularly In
the scene in Rosamund's bower. Mr..
Gerald Lawrence makeg an excellent
King Henry II. and he was deservedly
applauded for much good work. The
other characters were fittlngiy present
ed. At the close Of each act hearty
Irscalls were given, and at the close Of
the play, after repeated recalls, Sir
Henry apeared before the curtain
where he received magnificent ova-
ton. The greatest care has been taken
with every archaeological detail. while
the play is sumptuousIy mounted II
every respect. The whole effect wa'
triumph OF the mastery skill which
has provided for even the minutes
details. and which has left nothing un-
done TO heighten the effects which are
produced by the presentation OF
powerful poetic play superbly acted.
