Lambs club and the Players club
each paid $1,000 for single seats, while
leading members of the professions
and admirers of Mr.. Holland in the
outside world paid fabulous prices for
boxes and seats. All of those who
took part in the performance volun-
the same was true of the stage me-
chanics and others who aided in the
testimonial.
The program of the entertainment
was made UP of sketches and bits of
plays now being seen in the leading
theaters of the metropolis. An origi-
nal burlesque was also given.
Among the prominent players who
took part were Blanche Bates, Mrs.
Leslie Carter, FRITZ Scheff, Ethel
Barrymore, Blanche Bates, Marie
Dressler, Grace George, Phoebe
Davies, Robert Edason, Arnold Daily,
William Gillette, Frank Daniels, Da-
vid Warlield, Francis Wilson, Digby

ton Lackay. Henry e. Dixey. Jefferson
De Angels. Robert Mantell. Clara
Bloodgood, Sam Bernard, Maxine FL
liot, Viola Allen. Henry Miller and
W. Fl. Thompson.
Show girls from the various musi-
cal comedies in town distributed
flowers in the lobby and sold pro-
grams.

PORTSMOUTH, N. H., March "a
Tonight's battle at the Rockingham
Athletic club of this city between Joe
Walcott and Blink" McCloskey is
practically for the welterweight
championship Of the world. title
that Falcott still holds in spite of all
claimants. Walcott, owing to an in
jury to his right hand in a shooting
accident, has been out of the game
for some months, but his physicians
say that his hand is now as strong
as ever, and in other respects the
BLACK Demon Is as strong as ever.
1t will be the most important battle
of McCloskey's career. for, although
he has met most of the good men Of
his weight In the east, he has yet to
face a real champion. He has been
fighting in good form of late and is
confident of his ability to make a
good showing tonight against the re-
doubtable Walcott. Many fight fol-
lowers from out of town are arriving
to see the battle. which promises to
be a whirlwind affair from start to
finish.

How to Cook Prairie Dinner.

suppose you start on trip across
the mountains. You have plenty Of
grub but you accidentally left your
cooking untepsils behind. Not a dutch
oven, not fgy-pan, not tin plate,
even tomato can. Do you suppose
for moment would sit down on that
sack Of -four and starve? Not quite.
Build a big fire, and when it gets
low shove lot of clean old spuds un-
der the Goals. If you have fresh meat
the way is clear for broiling. If not,
slice your bacon, impale it on stout
switch, and when your spuds are done
break them open and allow the good
old bacon grease to drop on them as
it broils on the end of that stick. You
want coffee. Rip the jacket off that
canteen, bring the water to boil fun
mel your coffee in and you have coffee
But how about the bread? No pan to
mix the dough in, no article in which
to bake the bread. Tou don't like
ash-cakes? All right. Just mix your
baking powder carefully in the top Of
the sack; form the -four into funnel
shape; pour in very little water at a
time; don't be afraid of getting your
fingers balled up; mix that dough
right there, and when it is the desir-
ed consistency roll it out like a snake.
Cut cane from any old thing, wrap
this snakeshape piece of dough
around it in long coil, turn it before
the fire until it is good and brown and
you will have finer bread than grand
ma ever made.

the end of the first month his salary
was paid by a check, and he took it to
the bank and passed it in at the pay

looked at it and then passed it back.
Its perfectly good he said. but

The young clergyman took his pen
