RICHARD CARLE.

Richard Carle in his newest and best musical comedy, "Mary's Lamb, " will be the attraction at Poli's on Friday. "Mary's Lamb" is an adap- tation by MT Carle of the French fa- nous farce, Madame Mongolia" va rious versions of which have been presented in English under the title of Mrs Ponderbury's Past" In adaptating the French farce Mir Carle has made all the characters American and laid all the scenes in Haverstraw N. r., which permits him to intro- duce many localisms and Yankee jokes. The central character is Le- ander Lamb, hen-pecked husband, the part played by Mir Carle. Lamb becomes infatuated with an exact ress, and when he goes to meet her at the studio of an artist friend he is surprised by his wife. To escape her wrath, he pretends to be walking in his sleep. He later repeats the sleep walking feat. but with different re- suits. In the end, however, Lamb turns the tables on his wife, after he has discovered a certain escapade in her past life. Prices soc to $2.

DisIike Curly Haired Men.

It Is not generally known that there
Is a well defined prejudice against
curly haired men when 1t comes to
choosing "A jury. When asked to ex'
plain the objection TO curly haired men
a prominent lawyer said:
"When | was just starting life my
legal mentor inculcated that idea very
forcibly into me He said that curly
haired men almost invariably had been
the pampered darllngs Of their parents
and in their youth had been so ac'
customed to having their own way
that they had grown up In the bellef
that everybody on earth was wrong
except themselves. In this way the
seeds Of opposition were sown, and
as men they made it point to dis
agree with everybody and everything.
II every other man on jury voted one
way they would vote the other. They
usually are as stubborn as the day Is
long; hence a curly haired man never
goes On a jury if can prevent it,

SENATOR LEAVES OUT ON
HER TRIAL voYAGE-W WAT
ERFRoNT ITEMS YESTERDAY

AT little after 4 o'clock yesterday
afternoon the Western Union othce
in this city received word from
Weather Observer Kelliher, at North
Head, announcing the presence on
the Columbia bar OF fleet OF eight
armored cruisers, bound south to
ioin the Atlantic feet, on May 9TH,
preparatory to its trimphal entry into
San Francisco harbor on the morning
of the Sth; the the beautiful white
ships constituting the Pacihc heet'

formation. four abreast, with Rear-
Admiral Uriel Sebree's pennant, fly
ING from the mainmast of the Tenne-
see, which rode at the outboard Hank
OF the first division, with the Mary
land. Washington and Colorado on
the line, and the West Virginia, Cali
fornia, South Dakota and Pennsyl-
yania, following. The fleet maneu-
vered bit while passing the Heads,
and fell into single column, all with
the very apparent purpose OF making
an interesting display for the citizens
of this section who might have the
good fortune to be within view OF IT;
and they had more observers than
they knew, for Manager Lamar, OF
the Western Union, instantly upon
receipt of the despatch, telephoned in
various directions to hill homes and
downtown stores, and passed the
word as far as he could in the limited
time at his command. All who got
the message swung to the crests OF
the hills summoning friends and
neighbors as they went, and before
the feet faded from view many an
interested Astorian had caught a
satisfactory glimpse of the spirited
show. The wireless plants OF the
ships were in steady communication
with the United Wireless at Smiths
Point, and all wanted the last and
best item of news of the day. Fuzzy,
the United operator on duty, gave
them the head lines of the Morning
Astorian of yesterday, and such other
data as he had at hand, and received
cordial thanks for his courtesey. As
the sun went down the great ships
fell below the southern horizon, and
the pleasantest incident OF the AS
toria day was closed.

"The Matchmaker"

Mr.. Daniel Sully has at last secured
a worthy successor to The Parish
Priest" in his new play, The Match
maker. which will be seen at the Gen
nett theater, Dec. Z. This is another
case of an actor being forced by pub
lie opinion to play one line of parts
and it is likely that Sully in a clerical
role will be a feature of the American
stage for many seasons to come.
Like many another good play. THE
Parish Priest was a losing PROPOSE
ton at first. People of religious ten
denotes, those who could best appreci-
ate the play and from whom he natur-
ally expected support, refused to go
and see it, and it was only after
months of losing business that the tide
turned and the show began to make
money. Eventually the barriers of
prejudice were broken down and Sully
found The Parish Priest the greatest
success of his career.
