Cannot Be Too Careful.

As many accidents have occurred from lightning this season. it is well for people to observe rules of pru- dence and to keep out of dangerous places and avoid coming in contact with dangerous objects while thunder storms are going on. The laws gov. erning the electric fluid ought to be well enough known to persons of ordi' nary education and observation to al. ford them a considerable measure Of self-protection.

DAVID HARUM. :"


 The advance sale of seats for the performance of Harry Brown in "Da- vid Harum," the "hoss" trading play. has been unusually heavy and crowded house is something that is assured for the comedy. The play Is in three acts and opens In front or David Harum's bank in Bonneville, New York. Across the road is Aunt Polly's house with it's trellis covered varanda and its old-fashioned how- CTS. One of the really humorous things in this act is the famous trade that takes place between David and the pious Deacon for the balky bay morse. The second act shows the in terior of an office that leads from the counting room in David's bank. A real rainstorm is shown in this act and the sight of Deacon Perkins, standing up in his runabout in the pouring rain and belaboring the bay horse that was warranted to stand without hitching, while the rain comes down in torrents, never fails to secure several curtain calls. The last act displays Aunt Polly's sitting room and it is in this act that David tells of his start in life, of the friend ship of the late Billy P. and in re- membrance of that friendship to little freckle-faced, barefooted coun- try boy, who was abused by hts step father, he returns to the widow Of Billy P. her home free and clear as Christmas present. It is one of the most oddly sympathetic scenes ever introduced in a purely American play and is typical of the many good men We all known. Prices are 20, 35, 50 and 75 cents. Telephone 1l6.
