discharged during the absence Of the over

A week of musical comedy OF more
than ordinary Importance is the an
nouncement made for Ford's where,
beginning Monday evening, September
p "Three Twins" direct from year in
New York, will be the attraction. The
origional company, with an entire new
scenic and costume production will be
shown to Baltimore theatre-goers at
that time. This is the company so vida
ly celebrated that ran all last season at
the Herald Square theatre to the largest
business ever played to in that house.
Clifton Crawford and Bessie Mccoy
are the most prominent members of the
organization, which is made up of 10
people, an unusually strong cast having
been provided by Manager Jos. NJ.
Gates. "Three Twins was made into
a musicale piece by Charles Dickson and
was originally farce called 'Inoog."
The lyrics are by o. A. Hauerbach and
the music by Karl Hosehna. The COM
edy and novel effects have been great
factors in tile success of the piece. The
laughs are continuous from the moment
that the curtain goes up. The music is
especially catchy and some of the num-
bers, including "The Yama Yama Man,
and "Cuddle Closer" have gained vogue
in all sections of America. The chorus
is made up of fifty pretty girls, who can
both sing and dance.

After Quicker Mail Service.

The people of Colonial Beach, Va,
are trying to have the Postoffiee Depart
ment establish mail route between that
place and Popes Greek. The Depart
ment is said to be favorably impressed
with the proposition, and one bid to
carry the mail has been received, but
was too high, it is said, to be considered.
This is question of the great import
ance to citizens of Colonial Beach, be-
cause it means the establishment of a
route by which the mail will reach there
at noon instead of o'clock in the even
ing, making it possible to receive mail
from the north and have an answer sent
out on tie same day.
