interesting series of motion picture

sung with guitar accompaniment. The

ton of Madame Marcella Sembrich

err" till Andrew decides that it's time
for you to SMILE and then, sure, there's
no lump at all, at all. And that's the
kind of an actor man that Mack IL in
Boucicault's old play. "Arrah- Ma
Pogue."
He was in splendid form last night
in the Newark Theatre, and Newark
was glad to see him. She almost rose
from her seat and took him into her
arms when he finished his singing OF
"The Wearing of the Green" The
world is full of better singers than
Andrew Mack, but there are few voices
into which can be thrown more plain
tive appeal than Andrew Mack throws
into his when he sings his favorte old
Irish melodies. When he finished las.
night there was a great flourish or
handkerchiefs and wiping OF spectacies
that did not all come from hay fever.
1t was q fine tribute to Andrew Mack 5
ability to get down into the hearts OF
an audience.
If anything. this splendid Irish
actors sense of humor has expanded
, since his last appearance In Newark.
He's as funny as fiddle even when
he says nothing. In the trial scene
he was particularly good, showing the
lhappy-go-lucky, irresponsible irish
peasant as he is on his own heath, and
not as the comic papers too often rep
resent him.
Mack was supported by an excellent
cast. Thomas F. O'Malley gave n
praiseworthy Interpretation Of the
character of Michael Feeney the VIII
lain, in love with Shaun's sweetheart,
Arrah Meelish. He made Michael Fee
ney SO real that YOU found Yourself
hating him, and that's the proper way
to make villain real, is it not? Mary
Nash as Arrah Meelish was very sweet,
but not over convincing; but you did
not mind that. for most of her scenes
were with Mack himself, and you were
completely taken up with Shaun the
Post, his jokes and his songs.
"Acushla Machree" was the prettlest
song of ALL aside from 1.-THE Wearing
of the Green" A rolliclking number
was "Finnegan and His Flute" 1t set
your feet going whether or no, and was
encored time and again.
/ Just a bit jarring was Macks sing
ing of Good Night, My Love, Good
Night" in the prison scene. To be sure
he sang it beautifully, but just then,
most of all, it seemed that IL a song
was to be sung it should be an Irish
melody. Consequently the one Mack
chose, though very sweet In itself, fell
rather fiat on the ears that had harked
back to old Ireland.
The good old play retains its charm,
and 1t is likely that it will be we'll
patronized this week. 1t Is we'll staged.
and the many scenes are shifted with
commendable absence of confusion.
Arthur Jarret as Beemish McCoul and
Mildred Beverly as Fanny Power OF
Cabinteely are among those whose
work is excellent.
Go to see "Arrah- Na-Pogue' II only
to hear Mack and his well-trained
chorus render 1.-The Wearing Of the
Greene"

NAT WILLS TALKS OF LOVE
AT PROcTOR'S THEATRE.

Young people who are IN fove should
go to Proctor's Theatre this week. Nat
Wills, that happy tramp comedian, dis
courses upon the subject Wills was
in love once himself and he tells of his
experience. The object OF his affection
was dainty little thing weighing
about 300 pounds. When she stood up
she was five feet tall, but when she
sat down she was two feet taller than
that. Once she went to a theatre and
the man in the seat behind asked her
what she was sitting on. She told him
1t was none of his business, whereupon
the man asked her to stand up; he
said he could see better.
The remainder of the program is
above the ordinary. Viola de Costa
has q very pretty act called "The Latin
Quarter" 1t is we'll staged and her
company Is a good one. There Is a
rather novel telephone song during this
act, the tune being played by bells dis
tributed throughout the house Miss
de Costa wears a number of delightful
imported gowns. Tie act gives her an
opportunity for three complete changes.
Daniel Scott's limitations of we'll
known actors are worthy of praise but
the long waits between the changes are
rather disagreeable. He impersonates
Otis Skinner in "The Honor of the
Family" Albert Chevaller mot Chava-
lier. as the program has iD as "The

a plentiful supply in the four acts.
The scenes are laid on the plains of
the far West among rough cowboys

money to make the search, but who

that he may get her fortune. Only
after many thrilling escapes is she pro-
tected and saved by Lucky Jack Cor

with the help of a number of Indian
friends finds the lost brother.

hope of overtaking them, as they had
several hours start The prisoners are
Henry G. Wierman, Edward Van Ars-

discovered until 7o'clock this morning. -

Borne, one of the five prisoners who es-
capped from Jail last night returned to
Hagerstown tonight and gave himself up.
He went as far as Cherry Run and then
returned to this city, stopping at the
house of his uncle, William Cramer. He
telephoned for officers and soon afterward
was back in Jail.
Borne had eaten nothing since his es-
cape. He explained to sheriff Earnshaw
how the prisoners escaped. When the
turnkey closed the door of the corridor in
which he was confined they inserted a
small piece of wood behind to prevent it
from locking. When the turnkey pulled
the door from the outside to see if it was
locked the prisoners on the inside held
the door shut and thus deceived him.
Borne was the last one to crawl through
the hole in the brick wall. Borne said
Wierman organized the escape. Sun.

A Proposed New Law.

Delegate Aaron r. Anders proposes to
introduce in the legislature shortly bill
to prohibit railroads from running loco
motives backward on regular runs. This
bill is aimed particularly at the Northern
Central Railway and is intended to put
a stop to it's practice of having trains be-
tween Frederick and Bruceville drawn
by engines running backwards.
The recent wreck near New Midway,
in which fireman John Renner, of Fred
erick lost his life, caused demand for a
law of this character. The accident
which caused Renner's death was due to
the derailment of the tender which was
being pushed ahead of the engine, the
latter being coupled backwards to pas
senger train. The derailment of the ten
der caused the engine to leave the track
and topple over.
