Mr. Lawrence Eyart, who is to ap-
pear at the Grand. matinee and night.
on Saturday, October 5th. in Walker

ing young actors Of the present time.

known players as William FaDum,
Maurice Freeman, Emma Dunn, Dus-
tin Farnum and Lillian Mortimer.
Later SIR. Eyart identified himself
with leading roles and appeared in
many stock and road productions. For
SIX years he has been leading support
with Mr.. WhitesIde in both classic
and modern drama. His success in
ave are King" has been gratifying,
both artistlcaly and financially. OF

following to say:

city a play backed with the merit Of

castin the steller role. The play,
which is one of Walker Whiteslde's
sstiricaI comedy successes. gives Mr..
Evart brilliant opportunity for dis
play of his natural abilities. Mr..
Evart has a good voice. an admirable
stage presence and is ably fitted for
the ruaI role which he plays. He is
surrounded by an exceptionally strong
company, several Of whom were with

Recorder WhtchouSc administered
Justices in two cases at the municipal
courtroom yesterday morning., one of
them being that of Leon Champagne
of Gardiner who fell into the cellar on
Bond street Monday morning. Mr..
Champagne explained to the city
marshal that he was subject to fits.
but while the officer was willing to
admit that the cellar window through
which the prisoner had squeezed him
self Monday morning was somewhat of
a tight fit the court could see no cX-
tcnuating circumstances connected
with the case and imposed the usual
fine. The other case was that of j. F.
Sullivan who claimed to belong at
Bangor and who was taken off train
II, the first morning Pullman going
east. Mr. Sullivan was visited with Il
fine of SO and costs but as he was out
of funds ana a stranger In strange

get out of town.
