AUDIENCE APPRECIATED.
Miss Ethel Barrymore In New Play
Called "Her Sister,

New York. Dec. 25,-Miss Ethel Bar
rymore found favor and a warm well
come from a genial audience when she
appeared tonight for the first time in
New York in a new play called Her
Sister" the joint composition of Clyde
Fitch and Cosmo G. Lennox, at the
Hudson theatre. Enormously and clev-
erly constructed with the seeming de-
sign of affording Miss Barrymore an
opportunity of displaying her talents,
the play is replete with incidents, some
times comic and sometimes sentimental.
Miss Barrymore plays the part of a
bright young woman, who earns her
way by fortune-telling- designating
herself Isis" and pretending to be an
Egyptian prophecies. Situations de-
veloping in a home of a family in
which she had become attached to a
member, furnished opportunities for ex-
cellent acting.

SECRET NOTE OF MENACE.
Archbishop Glennon DepIores the
Voyage Of the Fleet.

ST. Louis, Dec 25.-Archbishop John
J. Glennon, in a sermon today, declared
that it was a serious mistake from
many viewpoints to send the American
fleet on its tour half around the world.
He deprecated the spectacle, he said,
because 1T is a season of peace on
earth and good viii toward men," and
then intimated that the advent of the
fighting fleet into the waters of the Pa
cific savored of the hypOcritical, since
with a great flare of trumpets it was
announced to the world that its mission
was one of peace, but in reality there
was a secret note of menace in its sail
ing. The policy to be deplored, he said,
was carrying the palm of peace in one
hand, while the other held the key TO
the hold, wherein is the 81, ZOO, 900 pounds
of ammunition for fight or frolic.'"

SENTENCED TO WORKH0USE
Seventeen Italians, Alleged Members
of Black Hand, Tried
in Pittsburg.

Pittsburg, Dec. 25.-The seventeen
Italians arrested yesterday and alleged
to be members of the Black Hand So
ciety, were given hearings today before
Magistrate Grady and sentenced to the
workhOuse for from thirty to ninety
days, or fined amounts ranging from SO
to 800 each.
The men were surprised in a so-called
Italian club in an alley basement. A
secret tunnel leads from the room to an
exit in Webster avenue, but the police
had learned of this and had it guarded.
From the men arrested all manner of
vicious weapons were secured, includ-
ing many firearms and stilettos. Police
officers are confident the club was the
meeting place of Black Hand outlaws.

progress was made today in the search
for bodies of victims of last Thursday s
explosion at the Darr mine. The last
faint hope of finding any one alive in

Up to tonight a total of seventy-six
bodies have been brought out.
