Virginia Carvel. true daughter of the
south, and between love and sectional
politics these two fight the old, old
story to its usual conclusion. Brice,
who Is man to indulge without re-
straint in stage heroics, makes his
debut into southern history by pay
ing his entire worldly fortune for the
purchase of a slave girl that he may
set her free, in accordance with his
Boston ideas. This is the act which
first brings him to the notice and into
the contempt of Virginia CarveL who
as it happened, was bidding through a
friend for the possession of the same
slave.
The play is pictorially and historical
ly correct. and although the characters
are constructed with an eye more for
dramatic effect than in an effort to hold
the mirror up to nature, they are one
and all charming, and as the majority
of the public are lovers of romance be-
fore they are admirers Of nature as dis

NEW YORK, Dec. 25.-Pepita. a
terday and indirectly recovered a set
of furs which had been stolen from her
mistress, Miss Josephine Limmer OF
81 East Ninth street. Miss Limmer
has had Pepita for four years.
Pepita has a name for each of Miss
Limmer's regular callers, but Is by no
means equally friendly with them. One
however has been a particular favorite
and has been greeted always by cries
of pretty grill" So often was this
endearing expression repeated that Miss
Yetta Frankel of 144 Forsyth street be-
came known in the house by the name
given to her by the parrot.
When Miss Limmer went home yes
terday afternoon a $50 set of furs was
missing. Vainly she searched ward
robes and trunks and finally appealed
to the parrot.
who's been here, Pepita?" she
asked, but the only reply was jargon.
What sort of a parrot are you any
how?" she demanded. Here you talk
so much that / am almost tired to death
of you, and yet when 1 ask you a SIM
pie question you don't answer me-"
Then disgusted, she gave the bird a
smack across the head.
Miss Limmer's sister, Miss Seintia
Hartwig, of 223 East 125th street ar
rived just then, and she, too, asked the
parrot who had been in the room.
pretty girl' screamed the bird.
Pretty girl 1 never lie. Pretty girl.

Her suspicious thus aroused against
Miss Frankel, Miss Limmer went to
the police. They were inclined to make
light of the parrots testimony, but
finally followed the clue. In Miss
Frankels home they opened a trunk
and in it found the furs which Miss
Limmer said she had lost.
Paul Diamond, a boarder in the Fran
KEEL house, was arrested as was Miss
Frankel herself. She said she had
bought the furs from a man.

that night that / should not like to be
in the building in a fire.
when my wife and I were on our

from fire after another, until we grew
in the habit of looking in the papers
and wondering what hotel would go
next.
while we were in San Francisco
we went out to the Cliff house to lunch
one day My wife suggested that we
wait until the next day, but we did
not and the next day the house was
burned. If we had waited we would
not have seen it.
Another time we stayed at the
Palace and there was a fire there.
"A New York hotel was burned soon
after our departure.
Il was in fire at the Grand hotel in
Bakersfield and had a hard fight to
save my samples.
There have been two fires in the
Vendome at San Jose, one while we
were there and another soon after

I'VE stayed in the Interocean in
Cheyenne, and there was fire there.

other one and still another was the
