WRIGHT L0RIMER In "sHEPHERD
KING

That splendid example Of spectacular
5rama, The Shepherd King comes on
Monday night to the Apollo, for three
lays engagement. Nothing else that
Manager Moore could have booked Just
now would have been SO appropriate as
this play for the special season Of the
year. When its star and author, Wright
Lorimer, designed the play, ne was ami
mated by the fine purpose of giving to
theatre goers a dramatic version of the
beautiful Biblical tale of David and Jona-
than, their high example of brotherly
owe and affectation, and their unselfish-
ness in all matters of the world. Surely,
the entire field History offers nothing
more striking in the way of story
than this incident culled from the Book
pf Books; while Mr.. Lorinfer, in his re-
mantle invention wherewith to adorn
lis tale for the purpose ofthe theatre,
has been successful in making the love-
interest exceedingly strong and appeal
ing.
The Shepherd King has been revived
BY Mr.. William Brady with new splendor.
The play needs little introduction in this
sity. Manager Brady has arranged to
put the beautiful play on the stage with
greater spectacular effectiveness than was
the case with the original production.
As to the cast, it vii be given with
What is said to be the very best COM
pany Mr.. Lorimer has yet hau about
him, and with big ballet, chorus and
orchestra. Extra musicians are carried
by Mr.. Lorimer for the purpose Of the
pecial music Of the play. Mr.. Carl
Eckstrom vii lhave his original role Of
Jonathan; and Nelette Reed will be
another member Of the original cast, in
her striking impersonation Of the wick
rd princess. O'kane Hills, Rogers Lyt-
ton, and other well known actors will

THE THREE or Us,
We must take our hats off to Miss
crotliers; first of all, for having the
audacity of giving us bachelors apart
ment, with the innocent woman calling
for a worthy purpose at an unconven-
tional hour. We know there will be
surprise and that the world twhat would

for ascushion) is ready to gissip. Ger
'airly too the Jealous lover is to be the
Iiscovcrer of the cIandestine meeting,
but while the love story necessarily
gives the play its action it is not the
primal force that carries it to success.
It is the domestic side, the natural
homely touches, the candor of the in
ridents that arouse. THE Three of Us"
is play that grips the sympathies, and
for the most part satisfies the reason.
The bright star, Miss Janet Waldorf,
:ives the role of Rhy MacChesney, a
peculiar charm and winsomeness coupled
with self-reliant note, that seems to DOM
mate Those who have seen Miss Wal
lorf in the part clamor to spend another
evening with her and witness the charm
ing character of Rhy MacChesney. The
acting Of the balance Of the company is
excellent and the production complete in
every detail. "The Three Of Us, comes
hcralded as one Of the notable events Of
the season as no play has achieved great
er success.

MUSICIAN WAS FULLY DRESSED

ator close by, the esteemed vocalist and
musician, Joseph H. Ireland, was found
s.ffocated on Tuesday afternoon by hi
brother law, DR.. Bailey, of Atlanti
City.
When the latter burst open the en-
trance to the pretty bungalow on SoutI
Shore Road, he was shocked to find the
dead body Of Mr. Ireland, and the Doctor
was almost overcome by the gas laden
, atmosphere Of the room. He at once dis
covered The source of the fumes an open
cock on the radiator. The latter was not
lighted, and il was hard matter to
datermine as to whether Mr.. Ireland had
tried to warm the chilled room aftei
entering and, owing to his impaired Wis
ion. he failed This is only theory OF
those who knew him and loved him, but
is is surely as plausible as the one Of
suicide, because, where doubt exists
il is far more charitable and comforting
to bestow it where it may soften the
sorrow of mourners.
There are other very good reasons fol
believing that Mr. Ireland met with ar

OIL Roads IN iII,ncts.

A most interesting experiment is be
ing conducted in central Illinois, neal
Springfield. The state highway com
mission is making test of oil on coun
try roads. While oil roads are no nov.
city In many parts of the United
States, they are not known on the
heavy black soil of central Illinois
The top soil of the road is being mixed
with an asphalt oil to a depth of siy
inches. What the results will be no one
can predict, but this may be the solu
ton of the good roads problem. IL
many parts of the Sucker State ston(
roads are out of the question. With,
out the material near at hand the
great prairie states cannot expect tt
have stone pixies, as do some of the
eastern states. Good roads must be
secured by drainage, special care and
possibly by the use of oil. This expert
ment will he watched with great
deal of interest.

Lumber and Pulp.

Some interesting correspondence
in regard to the international aspect
Of the question of repeating the duty
on lumber and other forest products
has been given out by the National
Forest conservation League, which
is taking the position that the first
step in forest conservation is to re-
peal the tariffs which prevent
American consumers from freely
drawing on the forest products of
other countries. This correspondence
is between Senator William c. Ed
wards, a member of the Canadian
parliament, of Rockland Ontario,
and large manufacturer of lumber
and pulp in Canada, and the Secre-
tary of the League. Senator Ed
wards was the official representative
of the Dominion at the recent Con-
servation Commission Conference in
Washington
From the correspondence it APP
pears that although most manu-
facturers of lumber in the United
States object to the repeal of the. tar
if on lumber, alleging inability to
compete with Canadian lumber, the
Canadian market has this year been
flooded with American lumber,
there being no Canadian duty on
rough lumber, to such an extent that
the Canadian manufacturers have
been undersold at home and have
had their mark eft ruined. In conse
quence the lumbermeu of Canada
made an effort to have relatitory
tariff placed on American lumber
but this agitation failed.

Will Bore for Gas

The Bradford County Operative
Gas and Oil company started yester-
day to sink a well on the flats west
of Sayre in the hope of striking
vein of gas large enough to be Of
commercial value. The company is
composed mostly of Genevia capital
lists, the only Sayre man who is large
ly interested burgess William Cross.
During the past six months three
of the best oil and gas experts in the
United States have examined this To-
cality, and they announced that they
are certain that gas bearing sand
and possibly oil sand will be struck
at depth of not less than $500 feet.
They decided that this valley is
directly in the gas sand belt of
Gaines, Pa, and they announce that
they think the sand belt here is 81
feet in width. They assure the men,
bers of the company that the we'll
will be capable of producing one and
one-half million cubic feet of gas
each day.
The company has secured option
and lease en- 600 acres of land situat-
ed between the western border of
Sayre and the Chemung river.
