THEY WON'T LET CELIA ACT.
CIGARMAKER GIRL WHO FOUND A
STAGE JOB.

She Tired OF Her Trade and Got on inc
Boards in Philadelphia. but Her
Parents and the Police Found Her
Out and Now It's Back TO the Factory.
The police Of Philadelphia have captured
Celia Smith, Is years old. OF this city, ana
are holding her on charge OF trying TO be
an actress. Miss Smith ran away from
Pitt street on Memorial Day to be an actress.
Wonderfully, she got on the stage at once.
She was rehearsing when the police caught
her.
Morris Smith, a olga rmaker, lives with
his wife and ten children In tenement at
Pitt street. Celia Is the eldest OF the
family. Three years ago they put her to
work rolling cigars to help support tho
family. Two years ago Celia began TO
mix with the Educational Alliance, where
she learned to act in amateur plays.
Mr. Smith last night. sciearmakers get
bad lungs. so let her 90 out nights to get
the air. They taught her to act at the
Alliance because she was 20 quick with her
head"
with a proposition. she was tired Of rolling
cigars, she said: besides. there was nothing
in Il. She wanted to 60 on the stage and
become a great actress and make lots OF
money for the family. Some actresses.
abe told her mother make as much as so
Q week. She knew just where she could
get a job, too. A theatrical agent had
offered her plac. in Philadelphia at ~
a week.
And think II e. said Celia Lila ca ,hnI;yyi.
ness and her mother told her that the
Smiths weren't that kind Of people. Celia
took the rebuke and seemed to forget It.
Next day was Decoration Day, holiday
best clothes and went to see the parade;
The parade seemed to last all day and all
the evening and all night, for she did not
come back. On Wednesday morning the
Smiths told the police and they found Celia
reheafsing in Philadelphia. She was liv,,
ing in theatrical boarding house and
seemed to be enjoying. life, The Gerry
society has her and will probably return
her to her parents next week.
1t was Just before the news came that
Mrs. Smith had letter from her wan
dering daughter.
Il ca " in a paper that you told the police
about me-" it said. THAT wasn't nice OF
you. / have a good job, live in a good
place and am perfectly respectable.
am never going to roll cigars any more,
Some time when l have lots Of money
l will come back to visit you
"She didn't have to do that said Mrs;
Smith. "She was q good cigarmaker and
got hood money-$9 every week. Cigar,
makers get as much as Sl2. Celia would
have earned that soon. And now maybe
she loses her job.
Anyway, II I'd got that letter first l
wouldn't have told the police"

WAS NOT DYNAMITE.
Only = Piece OF Submarine Cable Wrapped
in Oilskin.

A section foreman found what looked
like stick Of dynamite closely wrapped
In an oil skin in an ash heap in the Penn
sylvania Railroads. west yard at Kearny
yesterday afternoon. He had visions Of
another plot to blow up drawbridge over
the Haokensack and reported his find to
officials Of the road.
The dynamite was taken to Jersey
City police headquarters by Detective
Sergeant Frank Bennett, and Chief Murphy
was told OF the discovery while he was at
the Jersey City-Toronto baseball game.
Everybody who looked at the thing took
It for granted that it was a high explosive
Of some kind.
The chief was unable to get dynamite
expert to examine 1t and at 10 O'Clock last
night he ripped OF the oiled skin. Then
he went to work on the thing with his PEN
knife and announced that the stick Of dynA-
mite was a harmless section OF submarine
ca le. The railroad officials were greatly
relieved to hear the news.

Says DEF M0ines Pastor, Who Wants the
Poor TO Feel 1T Homo There.

DIES MONIES, Ia, June s.-The Rev. DR..
A. W. Mcconnell has rogue sted the mem
bers OF Clifton Heights Presbyterian Church
to attend services dressed In plain and
inexpensive clothes. DR.. Mcconnell. who
is head Of one Of the most fashionable con-
gregations in Des Monies, Is firmly con-
WINGED that the reason the poor cannot be
brought into the church Is because OF the
rich apparel worn by the well.to-do. In the
regular announcement for church services
to-day Dr. Mcconnell issued the following
notice:
'Please note that persons attending SER
vices are requested to wear plain and in
expensive clothing in order that no one,
however humble, may be embarrassed"
When asked for a further explanation
Of his opinion Dr. Mcconnell said that he
had no desire to DO taken for a sensation
alist, but after long thought upon the sub
ject he was persuaded that dress is the
great barrier between the leading churches
and the poorer classes.
