European and American civilization is
now in precarious state, and seems to
have reached its zenith. The physical Prov
ess and the intellectual force of man have
carried it so far; and now it is subjected to
a deadly materialism, chiefly owing to the
relative degradation and servitude Of
women.
Women are denied responsibility. Like
slaves they are either surfeited with lux

they are compelled to do some of the hard

planned, coy and decorated in excellent taste. It
is an ideal theatre for light comedy, and even a
small opera production could be comfortably made
in the house. In fact, it is not unlikely that
tain productions of this sort will be offered here
next season.

pear in her permanent theatre, named after
her. Of course, Mrs. Osborn's playhouse is not
altogether forgotten, but both before and after it
merely the Berkeley Lyceum. The Mary An
derson theatre at Louisville the first in this
country, so far as my recollection goes, to be
named after a woman. 1t is said that Annie
Russell is to follow Miss Elliott's example, and to
have her theatre soon.
The opening of Miss Elliotts new theatre was
also the occasion for the second metropolitan pro-
duction of play by Marion Fairfax, whose "The
Builders" presented at the Astor last season. made
an excellent impression. While "The Chaperon"
is entertaining and we'll constructed, according to
the traditions of the stage, it is not good play
as Miss FairfaX's first work. It shows her in
somewhat different mood, wherein light and
amusing dialogue predominates. Miss Fairfax will
soon rank with the leading American playwrights.

JOHN FRANCIS McklEVER
Died at His Home in this City Sun
day Morning

Again this week it has been
proven to US that "In the midst of
life we are in the midst of death. y
God in his infinite wisdom sent
the death angel to this city and
took with it one of our most high
ly respected young men.
After only one short week of
illness John Francis McKiever
died at his home in this city. He
suffered an attack of appendicitis
and was thought to be much better,
in fact was better and was able to
be up but on Saturday afternoon
he grew suddenly worse and it was
found absolutely necessary to per-
form an operation. The operation
was performed late Saturday night
and Sunday morning, Feb. 7,about s
O'Clock this young man drifted in
to the great beyond.
The deceased was the son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Edward McKiever
and was born at Peterborough,
Canada, a little more than q years
ago. He came to this city when
quite young and this has since
been his home. He was a painter
by trade. and was an artist in his
line.
In the very pr me of life, with
all the hopes and promises of this
world before him, he was SO sud
denly taken from his home and. his
father and mother and all those
near and dear to him. All that
mortal hands could do was done
but Jack only found relief from
his suffering in death.
He leaves a father, mother, three
sisters and four brothers, beside a
host of friends to mourn his un-
timely death. The funeral SER
vices were held~from the Catholic
church, Tuesday morning at 9

While Prof. L. X. Hurst was
returning from Peru, where they
played basket ball last Friday
evening, he was taken suddenly
i'll. He grew steadily worse and
on Sunday it was decided by local
physicians that an operation
would be necessary. So on Mon

pendicitis.
At this writing he is better, and
we are glad to report that physi-
clans say he will speedily recover.
