"Hjs House In Order"

The play that has been the largest sub
ject of discussion for months among the
theatre-goers of New York, His House
I'm Order" in which John Drew Is de-
clared to have made the most phenomenal
success of his career, opens at the Jeffcr-
son theatre Thursday night, March 2s.
The remarkable novelty of Mr.. Pinero's
play. the skillful dramatic situations he
presents, the new characters he offers,
the series of thrills in the four acts, and
the numerous surprises that occur in
the different scenes, make it something
entirely different from the run of plays
with which theatre-goers are familiar.

brich scored triumph that has not been
duplicated in this city in years.
That voice has not been eXcelled, and
to many 1t seems that it has not even
been eoualed, in Jacksonville. There was
a marvellous strength 10 1t, strength
that lay in it's native beauty, its almost
phenomenal coloration, the fawless into

bell-like clearness of those top tones that
held their hearers spellbound'
The ease and naturalness of her stage
bearing, the personal presence that is
hers won her friends from the start.
Her graciousness held them In strength
ened bonds. Her womanliness won all
that had not been won before, and then
there was her voice That was the most
wonderful part of it all.
Thes plendid duo from Puccini's La
Boheme" swayed the audience as the
singers wished. The Waiting air Of
"Parla' scored again, and then, when
the vociferous applause would not be
quieted until yet once more those hun
dreds heard that voice, Madame Sem
brich responded, and the response was
what wrought her her greatest triumph.
1t was the ever-old yet ever-new, 1.-THE
Last Rose of Summer that she selected,
and knowing the human heart, knowing
the power Of the song. knowing the pos
sibillties of her own clear voice. Madame
Sembrich selected well.
The echoes of the applause that had
followed her last effort had not yet died
away when the first clear nDte, note
that was rich in remembrance, tender
with sorrow all subdued, fedolent of
loves that are deathiess and hearts that
are happy and those that ached, cast its
spell. And from that instant her tri-
umph was complete

At the Gayety.

A shapely chorus in some handsome cos
tunes and an olio with several good vau-
deville acts constitute the features of the
Gavetv theatre this week. Two large
audiences saw the performances yester-
day afternoon and evening, two OF the
best Monday audiences that have been to

The company and chorus contains more

graced with figures which are above the
ordinary. The management has been for

costumes which enhance the looks of the

She sings several songs acceptably. Ha-
gan, Westcott and Bennett, man and
two women, offer speciality that in

Lafayette, Ind. Nov. To-day
was the 96th anniversary of the bat
tie Of Tippecanoe. the. greatest in
that long series of struggles for su-
i premacy between the paleface set
tiers Of the then new west and the
redskih aborigines. Many patriotic
people today paid pilgrimages to the
historic spot where, in 1911, William
Henry Harrison broke the power OF
Tecumseh's great confederacy OF the
Northwestern tribes and won that
military fame that later led to the
presidency. A movement will soon
be set on foot to celebrate. in Mt
ting manner. the centennial Of the
battle four years hence.
The battle-ground Is eight miles
from Lafayette and is owned by the
state of Indiana. 1t is surrounded
by an iron fence, and over the arched
entrance ds the single inscription:
Battle OF Tippecanoe, November z,
1911" An appropriation has been
made by the state of Indiana to pro-
vide for the erection of suitable
monument to those early heroes who
took part In the memorable battle.
Aside from the iron fence, the bat
tleground presents today almost the
same scene OF idyllic and rustic beau
ty as 1t did 96 years ago. Although
a trolley line extends from the city
OF Lafayette to the grounds, and
there are other evidences of Amer
lean progress In the vicinity. the
ground itself Is very much as de-
scribed by Harrison in 1911.

about ten feet above the level OF a
marshy prairie in front, toward the
town OF the prophet, and nearly
twice that height above similar
prairie In the rear, through which /

nets creek. bordered by willows and
brush wood"
It was to this point that William
Henry Harrison, then governor of
Indiana territory. marched with his
troops from Vincennes, then a rude
fort with q few log huts and digni- |
