Given hearing at the Jail last night,
Justice Slack committed Richard Smith,
colored, to await the action of the grand
jury. He is charged with assaulting John

The trouble occurred on Sunday be-
tween 1 and a. m, when the complain

''SoWING THE WIND"


Sex against sex A clash between two
mighty forces, thrilling chapter from
the struggles everlasting is the key
note of Sydney Grundy's powerful drama,
Sowing the Wind" which the Orpheum
Players will present at the Chestnut Street
Theatre this week. In substance the
story unfolded in Sowing the Wind" is
as follows: Ned Annesley, the adopted
son of Tom Brabazone, falls in love with
Rosamond Athelstane, famous singer.
He goes to his foster father for permission
to marry the girl and is told that his
choice is poor one. Brabazone's friend
and crony, Bob Watkins, even accuses the
girl of being a woman to be stunned.
Ned flares up and threatens to leave Bra
bazone, but is Gained when assured that
proof would be brought to show that
Rosa is unworthy of him. Watkins sets
out to secure this evidence and almost
succeeds in running the girls reputation
by accepting as truth the stories told him
by couple of roues. Old Brabazone has
personal interview with the girl in the
hopes of persuading her to relinquish un-
to him his only prop in life-his adopted
son. This interview is a stormy and ex-
citing one-it resolves itself into a battle
for the defense of the name of the girls
u0du mObuer anu ueT uHkuOWH' ldbHer.
Rosa fights for the woman, Brabazone for
the man. 1t is sex against sex. During
this struggle Rosa reveals her mothers
name. Brabazone almost collapses. Rosa
is his own daughter-c of the woman
he had loved and forsaken because he, teo,
had listened to Islander. Without at first
revealing himself to her Brabazone tells
Rosa she can marry Ned. But it is now
the woman fighting for honor and she de-
clines to accept the concession. The old
man overcome with pain and remorse,
then tells her who he is and implores her
to come to him and make Ned happy by
becoming his wife

"The Red Mill, " fresh from its triumphs
at the Knickerbocker theatre, New York
City, where 1t held forth an entire year,
with engagements of three month each in
Chicago and Boston, will be presented at
the Burlington Auditorium on Monday
evening, August II. The musical comedy,
the joint work of Henry Blossom and
Victor Herbert, and presented by Charles
DilIingham's admirable company, proved
the fourth consecutive success In which
these clever comic opera builders have
collaborated The field of action of ''The
Red Mill" is laid in Holland. The first
scene, an exterior, shows the red mill of
the story at the edge of the little village
Ia Holland. The second scene, an interior,
gives us look at the home of well-tO-do
Burgomaster. All the people of the story
are Hollanders, with the exception of two
heroes who are New Workers and are
stranded in the lowlands Their adven
lures make up the complications of
the piece, including the sensational escape
from the WINDMILL on the revolving blades.
The story is simple Con Kidder and
Kid Conner are two Americans stranded
at small inn. They have come to the
end of their financial resources and are in
debt for weeks board. They are about
to make their escape by means of blank
ct from an upstairs window when they are
detected by the Burgomaster and only
saved from imprisonment when they offer
to work out their indebtness. Kidder, who
processes to being somewhat of linguist,
is made interpreter at the inn and Conner
becomes a waiter Kidder has but a scant
knowledge of French, and when he is con
fronted by an irate French Countess. who
does not understand him, his attempts
at conversation are laughable. Gratchen,
the Burgomaster's daughter, is betrothed
to the Governor of iceland, an old fop
and roue, and to escape this marriage she
plans an elopement with Doris Van Damn
young sea captain. The Americans
promise to aid the clippers in return for
passage to America However, the plans
are discovered by the Burgomaster and
the prospective bride is locked in the red
mill until the arrival of the Governor.
Seats for this attraction are now on sale.
