Base Ball Team.

Edward G. Shea OF Brooklyn, a So
phomore in Williams college and
short stop on the varsity ball team,
was instantly killed in an elevator
accident atthe Wellington hotel, North
Adams, early Sunday.
Shea, with William Waterworth, a
Williams freshman, rode to the top
floor of the hotel in the elevator run
by Alexander Young, the night watch
man. On the way down, just before
reaching the ground floor, the watch
man says Waterworth grasped the con-
trolling lever to stop the car, but &C
cidentally pushed it too far over, thus
reversing the power, and as he stepped
out the car shot upward.
AT the same instant Shea tried to
step out on The Office floor. His head
struck the top of the door leading to
the elevator we'll and his skull was
crushed. The body fell on the Office
floor and then rolled into the well, fall.

and notified the school board that
the Houghton and Miner schools could
be opened Monday. The Houghton
school is In the neighborhood of the

Montpelier, Oct. BIN the biennial
report of the officers Of the Vermont

state for the institution and that of the

because of wise economy. A similar
sum will be left this year probably,
thus reducing the actual expense of the
institution to the state in II years to

During the past winter the member

AN HONEST CRITICISM.
Tacoma Newspaper On "candida" ant
Company Presenting 1t.

Tacoma Newspaper On "candida" and
Company Presenting 1t.
Following is the criticism. of the
Tacoma Ledger's dramatic editor OF
Candida" as presented in that city
last week:
Candida" the George Bernard
Shaw play produced Vt the Tacoma
theatre last night before a delighted
audience, is a very serious comedy.
After sitting through a performance
of the study in misunderstanding one
begins to realize why New York crit
les Intercepted the public with a
new coined word, "Candidamania."
Shaw adopted a few real people
upon whom to lavish his eccentric
genius when he wrote Candida" lift
ing them out of the poverty of daily
life. He took a poet, a parson, a man
of ignorance and business combined,
a curate and a woman of refinement,
and upon this foundation reared q
wonderful literary superstructure. or
course, he only needed the poet, the
parson and the woman who knew, the
other characters being mere orna-
ments for the purpose of making you
laugh and uttering brilliant Shawisms.
The poet is the cause of all the
trouble. It is easy to understand why
a poet is a fit subject tor pity after
seeing Shaw's poet conduct himself.
This particular poet, wLo is all Of IL
summers, discovers that he loves the
wife of the parson, the woman is 30,
but unlike some people, he does not
declare his love to the wife, but goes
to the husband and makes a bold con-
fession. The poet is as delicate in
body as his nature is sensitive, and
when the parson attempts to choke
him for the suggestion that the wom-
an be allowed to choose between
them he grovels in the sofa cushions
and whimpers like a badly licked
schoolboy. Instead of throwing the
man of muse through the window, as
the majority of those present at the
theatre last night indicated they
would have done, the parson allows
him to remain for dinner and make
himself at home.
Unfortunately, however, the parsor
is not the kind of a man who car
throw stones at glass houses. A sue

cessful clergyman, a popular agitator,
an orator of wonderful eloquence, he
has been spoiled by his people. He
does not understand his wife, but,
worse still, he does not understand
himself, and the poet has the temer-
ity to declare that he alone under
stands them all.
But the woman understands them
all, and when the time comes for her
to choose between them she changes
the current of two erratic lives. To
tell more of this powerful plot would
be to tell too much. All that remains
to be said concerning the play is that
it is a dramatic sensation, burning
with the white heat of artistic great
ness, easily the most powerful play
produced in Tacoma this season. Bet
ter, purer, deeper and truer to nature
than "Ghosts." nor original than
"Arms and the Man." and richer in
humor and epigram than "The Devils
Disciple"
OF the players, much that is praise
worthy might be written. The com
pany is small and for that a flaw
less. Lester Lonergan as Eugene
Marchbanks, the youthful poet, i'm
proves as the play progresses. He
acts we'll the part. Mr.. Lonergen is
small and fat, and but for his scarf
and general makeup would pass for .
prosperous man of the world. The
part of the poet is not one that ex-
cites much sympathy, save for his
weaknesses. But Mr.. Lonergen does
not overact. Some were heard to sug-
gest last night that he was not sufh-
GENTLY poetic to suit them. That IN
itself was a tribute to his work. HE
talks so pretty" says Mr.. Burgess,
the father of Candida, and that is one
of the reasons why it is difficult to
find a place in the sympathies for the
young visionary. Because MI. Loner-
I gen brings out so clearly and unmls-
takably all these things he is success
full, and his performance ranks high.
Two other members of the cast,
David Murray as the Reverend James
Mavor Morrell, the parson-husband,
and Frederick Spencer as Mr.. Bur-
CESS, father OF Candida, are finished
| actors and contribute valuable aid IN
making the performance successful
Especially good was Mr.. Spencer in
the character part. With the assist
ance of Marion -Ainsworth as Prosper
inc, the typewriter, Mr.. Spencer
brought out the fine humor OF the
play.
Alice Treat Hunt, who played Can
dida, gives that splendid finish to thu
play without which the brilliancy O
