said a Powers boomer, could you ex- pect Jimmie to stand for her queering his imitations2 He put the kibosh on that at the dress rehearsal last night"
 So the word went around the foyer that Grace had been forbidden to make good, and when the curtain went up again the audience was put wise. You will observe that, in discussing the higher forms of dramatic art, I uncon- sciously drop into subtly technical lan- guage.
 Grace sang in the second act a ballad concerning the time to marry" and for an encore she had expected to tn- troduce the new stunts; but instead she was restricted to merely repeating came into the scene with companion and undertook to talk down the ap- plause; but 1t grew louder, insistant and finally resentful. Jimmie wouldn't awkward contention, but the actor was nutnumbered thousand to one, and at length he had to give waS to tho ac- tress. However. she could do no more than repeat Q verse Her stunts were not given. small matter to all save Jimmie and Grace, to be sure. but tt opened a peephole through which to look into the scowling life behind the smiling scenes of theatreN
 And as to The Blue Moon" itself there is not much to write. It Is q musical cOmedS mdde Tn LondOu Wlln- out scrap of new material In It's libretto. British army men are In Burmah with some English wives and sweethearts. A native singing girl. nicknamed the Blue Moon. doesn't want to marry a Burmese prince. as she is fond of an English officer whose diff iculty of caste in wedding her is re- moved by the discovery that she is the lost daughter of a nobleman of his own land. Pretty much all of the text Is as worthless as the plot. But a beautiful show is produced. and Jim mic Powers with no whit of help from the four authors forces a lot of his own drollery into Tommy Atkins bandmaster, who is a coward playing futile tricks to convince his sweetheart that he is brave
 Several of the many displays give fond satisfaction In this new extra Vaganza. While Jimmie sings of his exploits with fearsome crocodiles. the green garbcd and shiny spanRled girls wind in and out and around and about the scene m a wriggllng column pret tily like the ugly reptile In movement This monster may have been Vlelous, but was of no hideous mein, and in lithe Johnnies' front row were several wnrshipners who looked as though ready like those zealots who throw

 Philadelphia, Nov p.-Frederiok schafhauser, civil engineer in the bureau of water of this city. was shot and probably fatally wounded while at Hall toady by Frederick Hornberger, a fireman at one of Tne city pumping stations. The shooting was sensational and at first was believed to have been the re- suit of politics, but later it developed the attempted murder was the outcome of domestic affairs. schaffhauser for the last year has beer, much IT, the public eye principally us a star wit ness in the criminaf proceedings against John W Hill. formerly head of the bureau of Alteration.
 Schanhausen was called frem his of- fec to the corridor of sne seventh hccr today on the pretense that friend wished to see him. He was met by Hornberger. who shouted:

 He had not finished the sentence when he began firing at Schaffhauser. Hornbergcr shot five times An6 two of the bullets took effeci. Hornberger was placed under arrest.

its funniest thing, else he wouldn't get share of It's profits as well as a salary, with his name spaced out big ger in the program than any twenty other members of the company. Yet he is only Jimmy the joker to an au- dience, and on the opening night he was reminded that no deference att taches to a fooling comedian. Two months ago, Grace Larue was trans ferred from vaudeville to The Tour ists" as a snapshot journalist, a role lnterpolated for the purpose of work ing in her speciality of humorous inn presentations. I wouldn't wonder if she was paid the $25O per week which she had received in variety shows; and when she was moved into The Blue Moon," at a more important theatre, she felt, with professional self-appreei- ati9n, quite sure of Jolting Jimmy Powers out of the stage center with a new set of limitations.
 Now, Jimmy had prepared some fresh diversion of that same kinda rapid dozen representations of amateur per formers-In conjunction with Clara Palmer, the soubrette of the outfit. It was to be such a ten minutes of bur lesque antics as he used t0 give with Rachael Booth, his chipper little wife. But one day Rachael by mistake drank some acid instead of water. and ever since mas been all 4hN6tAu+ AnuhL be hard for her to smile from a box on her we'll and hearty successor. Truly, stage favorltes are here today and gone tomorrow.
 However, Grace Larue was resolved to make all the possible hays<luring her day of sunshine. For one thing, she oiled her joints and frightened her ten dons' to lead the pony ballet"-those small but sturdy English young wo- men who have for years winded and tired out all American competitors in songs accompanied by dancing. Six of these prancing and kicking ponies were hired for "The Blue Moons" New York term. The two others of the oc- tette joined six recruits from London to make a pony ballet" for Nile. Sal lit. Well, Grace Larue went to the front of the ponies to he as acrobatic as they, and she did 1t, from the start ing hop to the finishing fiip-flap, in a song and chorus about the Timber tac- ties of the Lovel and Volunteers. That was in the first act
