THE SQUAW MAN" IS
4 PLAY WORTH WHILE

In the opinion of the large majority
of those who attended the performance
at the Orpheum last night, 1.-THE
Squaw Man" is much the strongest
play that has been presented here
this season. The reputation of the
play was in itself sufficient to draw a
big audience and there We're few who
we're not well satisfied with the even
ing's entertainment.
The story of 1.-THE Squaw Man" is
a beautiful one, and it was well told
by Mr.. Cooley and his capable COM
pany He himself was at his very best
as Jack Dallam, the young cattleman
who marries an Indian woman, while
Miss Gladys Kingsbury did excellent
work as Alice Rosleigh, whom Dallam
really loves and for whose sake he
forsook civilization and buried himself
in the Wild West. Little Miss Ida
EIingIey, who played with the COM
pany in Home Sweet Home" few
weeks ago, dppedied e5oAAi 1@'t AAAe7-
as Dallam's half-Indian child, and
showed herself to possess real talent.
THE Squaw Man" is to be repeated
tonight, tomorrow night and tomorrow
afternoon.
Thursday night the famous farce.
THE Man from Mexico is to be pre-
sented tbs play needs no recommen-
dation It was written for Willie Col
lier, who made millions laugh by his
Interpretation of the role of Benjamin
Fitzhugh. Since then many actors
have appeared in the play and it has
never failed to make big hit. Sat

sent a bill particularly attractive to

Burglar Blushed Under Desk.
Forced to Listen to Condolences of Two Women Who Didn't Know
He Was There His Modesty Compelled Him to
Come Out and Surrender.

Somewhere in Philadelphia there is
a burglar who on one of his eXpedi-
tlons dropped in on pink tea in the
home of Dr Ralph Deming of so
South Fifteenth street. Being natural
~ OF modest nature, the burglar
didn't come in by way of the front
door. but climbed in through a side
window. He didn't know 1t was Mrs.
Dcmlng's afternoon TO receive her
friends, and in ordinary circumstances
he would have left the place as hur-
rledly as possible.
AS he looked about the back parlor
In which lie stood he saw so many
souvenirs he felt he would like to take
with him that he decided TO help him
self. He was packing up many of
Mrs Deming's belongings when the
sound of footsteps caused him to dodge
hastily under writing desk.

burglar We're like those of the ordinary
housebreaker, nor were his experiences

four children appealed to the women,
the burglar described their poverty and
remarked they would starve to death
IL he were "sent up"
This is my first offense," he plead
ed, "and | think l got punished

In describing what followed the ap-
peal of the burglar Miss Taylor said
"He was such Il nice young man.
He couldn't have been more than TWEEN
ty-three years old, and we felt sorry
for him, so we just stood him up in a
corner and gave him a lecture. He
listened respectfully and promised to
lead an honest life and never again
become thief. After he made the
promise we walked with him down to
the front door and let him out"

talking about when you were enter
talning unconsclously the hidden WIS.,

piled, that he hadn't any right to

1t is expected that the girl will be dis
charged from the hospital soon. She
was seen there the night of the acci-
dent. sitting up in cot with the three
rats on the coverlet.
"They saved my life, and I'll never
part with them" she said. "Only the
other day mother asked me to discard
two of them. II | had. what would
have happened today?--I will never go

terrific shock, at the third floor. and an
instant later the cable crashed through

who accompanied the wife Of the ply
sician into the rear paror moment or
two after the burglar had found hid
ing place under the desk, until Miss
Taylor told OF her experience.
The two women had left the other
friends of Mrs. Demlng so as to have
quiet little chat by themselves. They
sat on either side of the desk under
which the burglar was stretched and
exchanged condolences. They spoke OF
many things dear to women's hearts
and meant only for their ears. The
burglar was growing uneasy, but the
two women didn't know it. Being un-
aware of his presence they continued
their little chat.
Being entirely unused to hearing the
private conversations of women of re-
finement and also being possessed with
anxiety to finish his business in the
house as quickly as possible. the bur-
glar tried TO remain patient while the
women conyersed. Finally he could bear
