irving at theatrical performances
from half an hour to three quarters
after the beginning of the enter
tainment. miss one of the most
charming features of "Girls Will be
Girls,o which comes to the Gennett
Theatre next Wednesday matinee
and night. The feature in question
is R. Melville Baker and Joseph
Harris dainty love song, And That
Little Girl is You,'' which is sung
with excellent effect after a manner
devised by William A. Brady. The
tenor and soprano sit on bench
during the duet, and at the last cho-
rus the other young women tip toe
in upon them from all directions.
Just as the refrain is reached, the
ensemble drops into a cleverly con-
ceived group about the couple, not
mike huge bunch Of human roses.
There are many other pleasing mum
ncrs III the piece. among them Ell
+uette,'' Hoy dye DO" Gee,
Wouldn't That BE Great and
,'Abou Ben Ali" but there is no
question that the duet mentioned first
is popular favor. Mr.. Brady's pro-
duction of "Girls Will Be Girls is
said to be up to date in every partic-
ular. The book has the virtue of a
capital story, and ludicrous situa-
tons, interspersed with bright lines
abound. Al Leech, who has always
had a considerable following in this
city, has added a legion to the num-
Der of the admirers by the reason Of
his capital impersonation of Profess
sor Dodge. Possessing some of the
accuracy of real characterization,
this portrayal nevertheless is replete
with with little eccentric comicalities
and ingenious devices for making
people laugh. The Three Rosebuds,
comely efen though their absurd
make up, ably assist Mr.. Leech who
has the advantage of a very good
supporting company throughout. A
word should be said concerning the
chorus, which is industrious. intelli-
gent, and more than ordinarily hand
some.

GREAT OAK 200 YEARS OLD

Lafayette, Ind, Feb 9.-Lafay
cites famous big Tree one of
the oldest and best known landmarks
in the county, is no more. The gi-
ant oak, under whose branches Gen
eral William Henry Harrison slept
while on his way to the battel of Tip
pecanoe, has been cut down, because
the topmost boughs were continually
falling off and menacing life and
property.
The tree, which is supposed to be
more than 200 years old, fully that
number of rings of growth having
been counted in a cross section of the
monster trunk, stood directly in the
middle of the Riverside road, midway
between the city and the Tecumseh
trail and the State Soldiers Home.
When the road was built in 1872 the
trees history saved it from destruc-
ton, and the highway went around
it on each side to prevent its being
cut down.
In years past there was a dense
forest in the region of the tree, but
civilization has made such inroads
on the native woods that but few
trees remain there and the "Big
Tree" lowered far above all the rest.
The tree for years has been known
as a TRUSTING place and scores of low
ers have plighted their troth beneath
its branches.
1t stood lis feet high, and on its
SCARED trunk could be seen traces of
record-breaking high-water marks,
the Wabash river running only few
feet away. The trunk was covered
with hundreds of signs and posters,
and the nails driven into it were
largely responsible for its decay.
For years the children of Lafay-
cite have talked of the "Big Tree, -
and used it to denote direction. II
is supposed to have marked the site
Of an old Indian village, as many
arrow heads and other aboriginal
weapons have been dug up near it
The Indian chief Tecumseh is said
to have stood beside the tree and de.
livered addresses to his braves and
/ held numerous council fires beside it

"Little Johnny JONES'" the
wonderfully successful musical at
traction, will be presented at the
Gennett Monday, February II. 1t
is a play because it has plot, an in
terest, some cause, rhyme and reason
for existence and one which with
slight changes could be done in sat-
isfactory manner without its delight
ful accompaniment of melody.
The atmosphere throughout is de-
lightful. the interest sustained, the
climaxes, situations, and story natu-
raj and never once overdrawn.
While ones ears are wide open
with expectancy for the usual thun-
dering finale of the usual musical
piece, we are treated to almost a
fearful curtain on the second act
when alone and lodging for dear old
America, the little jockey sits on the
dock watching the departure of his
friends, bound for home. The ship
passes in the night, gay with lights
music, floating over the waves with
its light-hearted passengers, and the
little jockey under a cloud, from
slanderous accusations, sits on the
dock with a longing in his heart TO,
friends abroad and friends at home
1t is a finish so unusual, so unexpect
ed, so pathetic, that we almost forge
that we are witnessing a musical tri
| fie and tear is suddenly dashed
from ones cheek.
When the curtain goes up on thu
last act we are instinctively looking
for a villain ran adventures

we are witnessing a musical piec

At the Gennett.

This afternoon and tonight will be
the last opportunities afforded for
seeing the splendid vaudeville bill
that is offered at the Gennett this
week. The bill is equal in every
respect to any bill that has been pre-
scented in this city, which Is recog-
nized as obtaining the best in the
land A large crowd was present
at the bargain matinee yesterday at
ternoon and last night the house was
packed. The fact that there are
other amusement performances IN
the city this week does not seem 10
exert any influence on the attendance
at the Gcnnctt vaudeville.
Every number on this week 5 pro
gram is worthy Of the first position
on any bill. The fact that the per-
pormance does not depend upon one
act to make it good is probably the
best feature. All of the eight
acts are first class and it is safe to
say that their superior never will be
presented in this city.

by exceptions. Fashionable snobbery
has not taken possession of all towns,
and there is very little of it in eeun-
try villages, but there is too much
ambition to own a large, SNOWY house
in all communities.
The desire to own a big house, how
ever does not always spring from OBJ
Jectionable motives. There are plenty
Of large-hearted women, and men, too,
who love to entertain their friends
and lavish hospitality at times upon
strangers. America is peculiar in
this respect. European business men
entertain strangers at their club
It is difficult to obtain admittance to
an English or French home. The home
is reserved for the family and init
mate friends. Strangers are looked
upon, in sense, as intruders, and as
such they are not encouraged. But
open-hearted Yankees extend the
hand of good fellowship to every well
appearing stranger that comes along.
Even tramps are fed out Of sympathy,
and not by hard charity methods, as
they are in Europe. Sometimes we

Water in EnldemIcs.

The relation of water to germs and
epidemics is subject full Of interest
from the standpoint Of public hygiene.
In the Revue Scientifque" DR.. Male
mejac discusses the whole subject Of
the experiments which have been
made from 1885 to the present day to
test this question, and especially with
respect to Eberth's bacillus, which Is
that of typhus. All that is known Of
this bacillus-its vitality, habits and
reproductions dwelt upon, with the
result Of showing that it subsists long
er than any other in steriIized water.
DR.. Malmejac.s conclusion is that wa
ter should be regarded as a true am
bent for germs, and not as an acct
dental channel, and, above all, that
pathogeneous germs may live in water
for sufficient length of time to cause
epidemics.

Then there was the brave rescue
by Mrs. Frederick E. Cvane, of Brook
lyn, Of her ten-year-old daughter and
the latters playmate, who together
fell off a pier into deep water at Say
brook, n. J. She went in after them.
Encountered by her heavy clothing,
she performed a great feat of physi-
cal prowess in bringing the two girls
safely to land, where she herself sank
exhausted from the shock and strain.
And not least among the water he
roines is Miss Mamie Sheehan, OF this
city, who few weeks ago plunged
into the Navesink river and saved the
life of James Edward Connolly, a re-
tired merchant of Washington, and
personal friend Of President Roose-

fallen into the water from canoe and
could not swim. With consummate
skill she brought him safely to land.

WRESTLING IN SCOTLAND.
Athletic Sport on the Famous Field at
GraSmeFe

Athletic Sport on the Famous Field at
Grasmere.
The sports field at Grasmere lies at
the foot Of a characteristic ridge Of
fel1s, very narrow at the top and as
steep nearly as the side Of house.
AS you sit in the grandstand this
ridge rises up in front of you.
On the bare, precipitous slopes Of it
the guides race is run. On the YER
dant lawn on which the grandstand
is placed the wrestling matches are
held and those spectators who are not
in the stand make a ring around the
lawn. There are coaches and car
riages, too, all around, on which PEG
pie sit and watch and have picnic
luncheons, and it all looks rather like
Lords cricket ground reduced in size.
In Cumberland wrestling the fall is
won directly man is thrown to the
ground. There is no need to pin the
shoulders down as in Graeco-Roman
wrestling. Here at Grasmere all is
ended Just when the Graeco-Roman
catch-as-cateh-cann would be get
ting to the serious work. Were it not
SO the Grasmere sports would last all
the year round.
Many of the men had their tights
embroidered with wonderful flowers
or designs in silk or wool-the work
of their women folk, who We're now
straining to get a glimpse of how the
charm worked from the swaying
ranks Of the people around the
ground.

Which is the braver-man

Which is the braver-man or

This is a question that nobody can

is impossible to teH % what degree
of heroism either will go when occa-

who under ordinary conditions would

to a pinch.
All summer long there have been
young women who have performed
deeds of splendid daring. Many of
them have not been reported in public
print
This attribute of bravery on the part
of our women is not new. This sum-
mer's exhibitions Of it are only new.
And it is only meet that the story of
some of them should be told again.
When young Earl Buckley fell from
the pier into the sea at Island Heights,
n. 4, only Mrs. " Floyd Campbell
heard his cry. She screamed for help.
Then, as she saw the lad rise and
sink out Of sight again, she plunged
into the water She was fully clothed
ana swan with difficulty. There was
still enough life in the boy when she
reached him and enough Of desperate
terror to make him very dangerous.
He grabbed Mrs. Campbell, and with
arms around her neck and legs tWined
about her body, chung with death
grip.
