TheStage

The attraction at the Jefferson
theatre Monday night was Miss
Alma Hearn in mo Mother to
Guide Her," and it proved to be
one of the real good shows of the
season. The play was a melO-
drama and contained plenty OF
excitement and enough fun to
make it very interesting and en-
Pertaining. There was a very
desperate william who Scrupled
at nothing to accomplish his evil
purposes. but fortunately for the
feelings of the audience, no mat
ter if the william fired point blank
or mercilessly pounded the heads
of the hero or his own pal with
sand bag or slungshot, the hero
and pal, though left seemingly
dead nevertheless promptly re-
covered when the villain left fine
stage and bobbed up serenely to
be assaulted and murdered anOth'
er time. During it all little Bun
co was always to the rescue with
her "gun" and always played the
bluff but she bluffed with indif-
ferent success until she at last
relieved the strain of the audi.
ence by actually shooting the
villain down as the curtain closed
on the wild storm scene, which,
by the way was excellently done,
But in the next act the desper.
ate villain reappeared, none the
worse for little Bunco's shot, and
began making a whole lot OF
trouble. The play closes with
virtue triumphant and the villain
in the hands of the law straight
on the road to the electric chair.
The play as a whole is very
much of a dime novel dramatized,
but as the parts are all in the
hands of capable actors lead by
Miss Hearn who knows how to
act who thoroughly presented
the very difficult character of
Bunco, a homeless orphan left on
her own resources, it became
very entertaining. The audience
was greatly pleased as was shown
by their continued and prolOng-
ed applause. and all through the
play could be seen a spirit of APP
probation on the part of the
spectators and one of encourage
ment on the part of the players.
In fact, during the whole per-
Torrance there was manifested
the strongest enthusiasm, and the
evening with Miss Hearn and her
company will long be remember.
ed with pleasure oy all who were
there. It is to be regretted that
only a small crowd of people
were present to enjoy this, one
of the most entertaining shows,
to Judge by the demonstrations of
the audience, that has been at
the Jefferson in many a day.

LONDON, April A.-There was an at
tempt in the House of Commons this after
noon to revive the agitation against the
American packing houses, a subject which
practically passed into oblivion months
ago, and the Board of Trade rather dis
countenanced any recrudescence of the mat
ter. 1t arose from a question Of Sir VIII
liam Bull, conservative, who suggested the
necessity for protecting the meat trade
of this country against the attacks OF
foreign trusts" and the taking OF steps to
prevent meat unfit for food from being
marketed here by representatives of the
American meat packers"
Mr.. Lloyd George, president Of the Board
OF Trade, reminded Sir William that a bill
had already been introduced by the presi-
dent OF the local government board. Mr..
Burns, dealing with the importation and
preparation of food. Mr.. Lloyd George
added:
Il am not aware that there is any cause
for further action"

ARREST in KIDNAPPING CASE
Deck Hand is Taken Into Custody
by Omcers at Dover,
Delaware.

DOVER, Del, April A-Frank H. But
Ter. deck hand on the steamer John p.
Wilson, was taken into custody today
charged with the murder OF Horace N.
Marvin. the 4-year-old son of DR.. Marvin,
the boy who mysteriously disappeared
Marcn T.
The theory of the detectives responsible
for the arrest, is that the boy was MUIR
dered or accidentally killed and that But
Ter knows something about the case.
Butler denies knowledge of the disap-
pearance Of the child and reiterates that
the boy was sitting on top of a haystack
on the Marvin farm when he and two
other men, who were moving the effects
of the former owner OF the land, left the
place.
A man named Caldwell, who was work.
ing with Butler the day the child disap-
peared, says Butler was ordered to go to
the barn and load up wheat screening in
bags. This he did, and when Caldwell
later entered the barn he found that But
Ter had loaded three bags on the wagon
and a fourth was lying on the floor Of the
barn.
Caldwell says he lifted this bag into the
wagon himself and found It heavy, al
though Butler had said it was filled with
corks such as are used by fishermen for
nets. This bag, Caldwell says, disappeared
Acting on the theory that this bag con-
tained the body OF the child. the detectives
decided to charge Butler with murder.
The opinion among the people Of this
city and vicinity is that Butler knows lit.
tie II anything about the case.

Hierarchy of Catholic Church Gather

menk-sermOn by Arch
bishop GIennOn.

NEW ORLEANS, La, April A.-Before
distinguished representation OF the Roman
Catholic hierarchy of the United States,
including Cardinal Gibbons. two arch
bishops and sixteen bishops. Archbishop
Blenk of New orleans was invested with
the pallium today. This insignia Is the
official recognition by the church Of the
archbishop's succession to the functions
and authority of the late Archbishop
Chapelle, whose arch-episcopal province
comprised Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama,
Arkansas Texas and Oklahoma, and who
died during the yellow fever epidemic here
two years ago.
The ceremony took place in the old st.
Louis cathedral. where various important
events in Archbishop Blenk's life have
transpired since he lived in this city as a
boy. The edfce was decked in the papal
colors, yellow and white, interspersed with
the American colors and the archbishop's
purple. About 10 o'clock a solemn pro-
cession of $50 of the clergy wended its way
to the thronged cathedral, where following
a celebration of high mass, the pallium
was placed upon the altar.
1t is a band of white wool with two PEN
dants Of the same material and bears four
black crosses. 1t was brought here from
Rome and its sacred import was described
as follows by Archbishop Glennon of St.
Louis, who delivered the sermon:
Import of Insignia.
Before its being brought to st. Peters
tomb there was the simple history of tho
making of this pallium at the hands Of the
daughters of st. Agnes. from the wool of
the lambs which were dedicated to st.
Agnes, the virgin and martyr, the snow
At.z
Rome in the days of old So. woven and
suTmounted with the cross Of her martyr
dom, the pallium was carried to the tomb
of the apostle guarded there on his feast
day, blessed by the sovereign pontiff and
forwarded from that shrine here"
With the pallium were three Jewels, an
amethyst topaz and a ruby, each set in
pin for fastening the insignia upon the
archbishops garments Contrary to GUS
tom, these Jewels were not sent from
Rome but were. with the pope's permis.
sion gifts of an old New Orleans family
friends of Archbishop Blenk OF many years
standing. The jewels are heirlooms.
After the mass Archbishop Blenk re.
newed his oath of allegiance and fidelity tC
the Holy See and then Cardinal Gibbons
placed the pallium upon the most reverend
prelate's shoulders.

REMEDY FOB CAR SHORTAGE
Roads That Fail 90 Return borrowed
Cars Promptly Are TO BE
PenaIized.

CHICAGO, April 2L-Decisve action was
taken here today by the American Railway
association to remedy the car shortage
which for several months has been causing
so much worry among shippers throughout
the country. The failure Of some roads TO
furnish sufficient quota of equipment for
their own traffic and the failure to provide
and enforce proper rules for the return
of foreign cars to their own roads are re-
sponsible for the shortage and to remedy
the evil Abe association today adopted
rule, to be confirmed later by letter ballot
of all the roads, providing that any rail-
road which, hereafter shall not promptly
return TO its owner after unloading all
cars consigned to It win be penalized s.
for each car so misused, to be paid to the
owner OF the car. This penalty is in ad-
dition to the per diem charge of 30 cents
which, after July 1, each road must pay
for each car not its own which may be
on its lines.
In order to make the new rule more ef-
fective the principle Of publicity is to be
invoked through the instrumentality Of the
so-called Car Clearing House recently es-
tablished in Chicago.
Through the new rule the chairman Of
the clearing house committee is now au-
thorized TO send to each Of the members
a statement comprising the information
already collected as to the car location,
percentage Of equipment on line Of total
owned and untitled car orders. This the as
sociation believes will enable each railroad
in the country to know exactly which lines
are delinquent in the matter Of furnishing
adequate cars or failing to return cars to
their home lines.
The report of the committee on stand
ard rail sections was adopted 1InanirnousIv
and the steel ram manufacturers will be
told that the present rails are not up to
| specifications and that better and safer
rail must be provided.
