seThc Morals of Marcus Comes
 Thursday Evening.

When conservative and cautious Bos-
 ton, through its vast army of play goers, endorses without restriction the acting of some one actress and the per- formance of some one play, it Is safe to say that actress and play are just about right. This is the case with Miss Marie Doro who is starring under the direction of Charles Frehman in The Morals of Marcus" and who comes to the Hyperion on Thursday, Jan. g. So great was her triumph from the be- ginning of her Boston engagement that sn extension of time for her at the
 Park theater had to be arranged, thereby stretching her engagement
 from three weeks to an indefinite per iod. Miss Doro will be best remem- bered for her dainty, charming imper- sonat'on of "Clarice" iu William Gill; lettes pretty comedy of that tide, but

All the scenes were painted from photographs taken expressly for this purpose. One act in particular. the one showing an elegant summering place in the Medi- terranean sea, is of exceptional beauty; the ocean, touched here and there with a snappy wind, the mansions of Euro pean millienaires, the magnificent ho- tel, of solid vine covered stone, the craggy cliffs, the palisades, the riot of wild shrubbery and blossoming buds of all kinds lend a coloring that while delicately exquisite is amazingly strong, powerful in its portrayal of na- lures best gifts.

Jockeys Tricks.

A New York jockey, while packing up
to go abroad to look for work, talked.
There are tricks of two kinds in
jockeying," said he, 1.-The legitimate
and the illegitimate. Use the first and
you'll prosper. Use the last and it's
all up.
''Illegitimate tricks are pulling
race and getting left at the post. If
you once pull fast horse and make
him lose, you are always afterwards
an object of suspicion, and ten to one,
if you ever pull another horse, you are
done for. But getting yourself left at
the post is big and complex subject,
and it is the one trick that a clever
jockey can work time and again with
safety.
ITO cause rival horse to swerve
is an illegitimate trick that often wins
your race. You cause the swerving by
Strengthening out your leg SO that your
heel nearly touches the other horses
nose, or you make wide slash with
your whip, so that it nearly touches
the other horses eyes.
"The legitimate tricks are-but why
give them away when it has taken all
my life to learn them ?" .zakaa.A---.--

The woman's face twitched pain

inaudible whisper:
Yes, father; he was very good

that's all about it."
You couldn't marry him, and, pray,

woman sat gazing lstlessly into the

"'Tis ten years tonight since moth

mournfully as it swayed to and fro on

uneasily in his chair, and glanced ner-

his daughter and said:

William Dutton, Ell! Why, it's
many long day since you heard from
him. What's he been doing with him
self since he went away?"
"He wrote to tell me that he's just
been married, father" the woman re-
piled, and although she tried to speak
calmly and bravely, a sympathetic ear
would have distinguished the sound of
unshed tears in her tremulous voice.

with a chuckle. "Well, we'll, the Book
