Today Mr.. L. Lindsay is thoroughly

FOWL THRIvED AND
GOT FAT ON PIN DIET
special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald
OXFORD, Pa, June 16-A gizzard
with twenty-seven pins bristlingi
through 1t was the strange find made'
by Mrs. Hiram Cooper of Andrews s
Bridge while cleaning a chicken for the
family dinner. The pins were all shapes
and sizes, and many Of them showed
signs of having formed part of the
ROSTERS anatomy for some time. The
presence of the pins did not seem to in4
terfere with the birds health in the
least, for it was the largest and fattest
of good sized flock.
Since the discovery of it's prediIection
for pins Mrs. Cooper remembers that
this bird always insisted in being about
where the women were and would fol-.
low them all over the yard. She be-
lieves now that 1t was solely in the hops
of finding some of its favorite articles
of diet.

"A MIDNIGHT ESCAPE"
THE BOSS THRILLER OF
,GRAND's PRESENT SEASON

Wow!
Bing! Bing!
And every time the pistol goes OH inc
hero manages to sidstep 1t and make
a getaway. only to bump against the
deem dyed villain in the next act and
foil him once more.
This goes on for four acts and eight
scenes at the Grand this week and, ac-
cording to Manager Pop" Baker ano
the audience, there are more thrills to
he felt than in any melo perpetrated at
the Main street house in many weeks.
What's the name? Well, it's down on
the boards as "a Midnight Escape
but lust which one of the close and
thrilling evasions of the Grim Reaper
happens at midnight cannot be deter
mined. They are scattered along from
the first act to the last. and while the
one in the last scene of the fourth act
is supposed to be more blood curdling
than any of the others 1t didn't happen
so yesterday afternoon.
For why? Because either the
"rescuer's'' cue was a little late in
coming or else her foot slipped as she
climbed down the scaley wall into the
deep. dark pit, where Charles Gum,
who is Joe Mendel, the prosecuted hero,
and Florence Barker, his really sweet
sweetheart, are awaiting the stroke oi
~ he1Ore Ln6y lSCl IAO ~ HSA sSStAf6 "a
death. They are bound hand and foot,
directly in line with some six-foot can
non which will be fired automatically
when the stroke of the clock falls on
the midnight hour
1t was in rescuing these doomed
martyrs that the faux pas, IL they have
such things at the Grand, occurred.
Adelaide Goundre made the descent to
the pit in safety, but her knife must
have been dull and she took a rather
long time in effecting Miss Barker's
release. BY the time she was. ready for
Gum the cannon had roared. but the
hero was equal to the occasion and de-
claimed: missed meh, bah jove!"
And the audience didn't know the
difference.
Gum is good as the hero, and Charles
Caulkins, who plays the villainous
lawyer, who does most of the shooting,
is equally commendable. Arthur Hill
and Frank Frayne do clever bits OF
character work, while Harrington j.
Wheeler. makes the most of his bit.
OF course Florence Barker looks her
own sweet self and overcomes obstacles
in the shape of criminally inclined
uncle and a bad lawyer to retain her
money and wed her Joe. Lillian Hay
ward is real tigeresque as the head
villainess, but Myrtle Selwyn overdoes
her part as the belle of the Bowery.

Dramatic Notes

Miss Ida Stanhope has been engaged
for vaudeville purposes by ALI L. VIII
son. She Is the sinuous young person
with "The Prince of Pilsen" who Is
said to have inspired that vaudeville
laureate, Nat Wills, to bring forth the
following classic lines:
"oh, tell me, pretty maiden, why you
walk like a kangaroo?
IT know do, kind sir
My dressmaker told me tol"
In short, Miss Stanhope claims to be
the original Gibson girl, and says she
taught Miss Camille Clifford to walk
that way. She has been the New York
girl in 1.-THE Prince of Pilsen" for sew
eral seasons, and will probably take her
walk and her bend into vaudeville with
her. 9TH
''The Lion and the Mouse" will be
tried on London again. Henry B. Har-
ris, who has just returned from the
English metropolis, announces that he
will take the Klein play there the ear
ly part OF next season, despite the fact
that it failed when produced there last
year He attributes it's failure to the
fact that it opened when the season
was practically ended. 1t will be pre-
sented by the same cast as was seen
on the previous occasion. Edmund
Breese will have the role of John
Burkett Ryder. Richard Bennett will
play his old part of Jefferson Ryder,
and Grace Elliston that of Shirley
Rossmore. Mr.. Harris will take Miss
Rose Stahl and "The Chorus Lady, to
London in May. 1908.
