Great Musical Production

In all the daintiness and n,ceness
of her Marrying Mary" clever Marie
Cahill has scored signal triumph
and will be seen here at the Grand.
December 5. They who have called
for more story and more plot in
musical plays have been vindicated
in this most interesting effort of Ed
win Milton Royle, and the music by
Silvio Helm and lyrics by Benjamin
Hapgood Bart, have proved a most
fitting decoration to the book.
Marrying Mary" is really a great
musical play for It marked the crea-
tion of a new class of entertainment.
The English musical comedies have
already been characterized as nice,
but then they have invariably been
too dull for Americans. But here
we have a comedy free from horse
play and vulgarity. and yet most
lively and entertaining. Comedy OF
the mind and not of the hands and
feet" someone has said, and It seems
fit, provided the phrase Is not so In
terpreted as to exclude the graceful
dancing of the "long-skirted" chorus
and even of Marie Cahill herself.
For the first time since she suffered
an accident to her hip a number OF
years ago. Miss Cahill has ventured
to dance, and in "Mr. Cupid" she
displays all the grace and art which
made her known in Augustin Daly's
Runaway Girl" as the best dancer
on the American stage.
A secret OF Miss Cahill's success
lies in the remarkable and strong
cast she has gathered together II
is probably the highest priced and
most finished aggregation OF players
now appearing In a m1sicai comedy,
Eugene Cowles alone must command
a salary which would stagger any
manager.

PENSION DECISIONS.
By the Assistant Secretary of the De-
partment of the Interior.

Presumptive Evidence-Where it appears
more probable from the evidence that
claimants disability isa ,,-os originated from
posed while in the line of duty than from
causes having no necessary connection with
the service, it is held that the disability
was due to the former causes. Upon this
point the presumption, in the absence of
evidence to the contrary, must incline to-
ward the claimant.
Cause of Death.-An injury incurred in a
scuf1e with a comrade in barracks and
causing soldiers death, does not give title
to pension. inasmuch as said injury is not
due to the line of duty, The department
reaffirms the doctrine that the cause of
disability or of death must IN some man
ical connection with the military service
and line of duty in said service" and dis
abilities originating III personal alterca-
lions sustain no such connection.
Proof of Marriage of EX-SIayes.-Au en-
actments of Congress relating to the mar
negroes who were slaves, or who resided Ii
states wherein their marriage may not have
been legally solemnized. They neither re-
fer to nor include negro soldiers or their
families who were free, or who resided IN
states where they could have solemnized
legal marriage.
line of Duty-A soldier voluntarily alb
sent from his company is out of line of
duty and, therefore, exclusively respon-
sfble for whatever casualty befalls him
not legitimately connected with his mill
tary service.
Honorable Discharge.-The records of the
war department showing that claimant was
the war with Mexico, the commissioner of
pensions has no lawful authority 70 ques-
lion such record. and must accept the fact
as certified to him by the secretary of war.

HE BUYS GREEN GOODS,
BosCobel Man Who Can Neither Read
Nor Write Will Testify Against
Philadelphia Counterfeiters

BOSCOBEL, Wis, Sept. IL Spe-
cial. Frank Wisdom was subpoouled
today by a United States marshal and
carried off to Philadelphia as a witness
against some green goods men said to
have operated in that city several years
ago. They tried to sell him some bogus
money, but as he was too illiterate to
read he carried the letter and sample
bill to a friend. They passed the money
all right, for the decoy was genuine.
The next day the friend of Wisdom be
came uneasy and went to the BoscobeI
merchant, Ben Williams, on whom the
bill had been passed, and made clear
breast of the transaction. The case was
reported to the federal authorities and
the carrying away of Wisdom for a
witness is the sequel. The man who act
ed as Wisdom's adviser in the matter
has since died. Wisdom can neither
read nor write. and did not know the
value of the bill he received from the
green goods men in Philadelphia.
