1T isn't often that my enjoyment Of a
play is quite so disturbed as it was last
Wednesday night said a Sixteenth street
woman. 1T was a charming play / was
seeing, with a young leading woman in it
who read every speech with precisely the
right touch. 1 had the misfortune to sit
directly behind a woman and a man whom
! could cheerfuily watch boiled in oil over
Il slow fire. The woman was quietly
dressed in a black and white blouse, and,
except for her soiled gloves and her man
ners, might have passed as a lady, but she
chose to make What were meant TO be
witty comments in a perfectly audible voice
in all the affecting parts OF the play. She
had evidently come TO a theater I'm the
wrong quarter Of the town for her taste,
and she quite spoiled the evening for every
body around her. Frowns and black looks
failed 10 silence her. During the third act
she was especially obnoxious. When the
curtain fell a lady in the next seat TO the
left turned toward me and asked If the
talking from the seat in front had an
noyed me.
Yes 1 snapped, and I didn't care who
heard me.
"'Oh, WELL said the lady-and 1 wish I
knew her name-'you mustn't mind IL. They
always come TO the theater about Christ
mas. I'm going TO let my cook come to-
morrow night
And the emphasis she put on my actu-
ally silenced the talkative person. We
heard the fourth act undisturbed."

JUDGE DONAHUE'S FALL
FROM FORMER GRACE
Made National Reputation as a
Curer of Wife Beaters and Now
Sued by His Own Wife.

WILKESBARRE, Pa, Jan. 8. - The
mighty Donohue, the most renowned alder
man in this country, the thrasher of wife
beaters, the shrewd dispenser of justice for
twenty-five years, has been hailed into court
himself and sentenced to pay $25 a month
to the support of his wife and children.
For years he has been the ideal alderman
of this city, for years his cases have been
famous, his fame heralded through the pa
| pers, and now the time has come when his
reelection seems doubtful.
1t was a violation of the law which first
brought him fame. a robust man at that
time, with a true mans respect for women,
he was irritated beyond measure by the
failure of the law to provide what he
deemed adequate punishment for wife beat
ers. He had many of them before him, and
each got all the law allowed. But this was
not enough to quench the wife-beating pro-
pensity in some of them. One man in par
ticular was brought before him several
times, and at length the alderman could
There is no use sending you to jail" he
roared, land timing you does no good. Now
deserve, and when L get through you'll
have a different idea about the rights of a
husband TO beat his wife"
While he was talking he had stripped off
his coat, rolled up his sleeves and descend
ed from his magisterial bench. Only the
constable was in the office, and he stood by
to see fair play.
Put up your hands!' shouted the alder
man. I'll give you all the chance you are
able to take"
The wifebeater was a husky fellow and
not afraid of a fight. He could see with
half an eye what Donohue meant to do,
and he put up his fists in a -workmanlike
fashion. Then Donohue showed him what
he considered the proper punishment for a
wifebeater, and there was a lively fifteen
minutes, in which the wifebeater had been
pummeled, sat upon, banged against the
thoroughly humbled and bruised offender.
Donohue. scant of breath and with some
marks himself to show for the fray, clam
bered back on his bench.
Now go home" he said, land see If that
does not effect a cure" Strangely enough,
1t did.
This occurrence established Donohue's
society sent him a ribbon and a long letter
of c~ommendation; women's societies and
women personally all over the country
wrote him.
Nor did he stop at one wife-beater. Other
unfortunates who offended the majesty of
the alderman by too frequent use of their
fists upon their life-mateS came under the
ban and weight of his brawny fist, and
were better mel for the use of it.
1t is not surprising that when Donohue
ran for reelection no small factor to his
success were the women of the ward which
elected him. They campaigned so effect
lively for him that he received a large ma
is inferred they will sympathize with his
wife, who charges DOnOhue with cOntribut-
ing nothing to her support since last May,
and this may mean his defeat.

They do all they can to make my sick room

it's still a sick room. and every gift merely
emphasizes the fact. The woman who sent
me this fan shall be in my will.
