CrossWicks.

Crosswicks is live place and it fire.
quently comes into prominence by reason
of some of the actions of its citizens who are
ever on the alert to improve the neighbor-
hood. Last evening there was meeting
of citizens who formed committee to
town and neighborhood in every possible
manner. Recently a new schoolhouse
was built and it is greatly appreciated by
all and it is hoped that the new building
will cause all parents to see that their
children take advantage of the facilities
provided for them.
The children certainly ought to be up
to the times as much as snakes are, for
two rattlers were discovered in one of the
schoolhouses in the township on Friday.
There was an abrupt ending of school
sessions, and although Rev. John Dettmar,
a Methodist clergyman living near the
school, captured the reptiles, there was
little inclination on the part of the students
to return to school. The snakes were dis
covered by Walter Brooks, the janitor of
the school, when he went to fix the fire.
The two were in the middle of the school
room and ratified warningly when he en-
tered. He immediately retreated and
warned the teacher, Miss Marie Johnson,
who ordered the children home. DIR.
Dettmar volunteered to capture the in
truders, and being naturalist, knew that
the snakes were partially torpid and man
aged to imprison them in box. The
snakes were attracted to the school by the
warmth of the stove, it is thought, and
gained an easy entrance under the floor.
Search was made for others, but none was
found

Theatres.
CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE,
PHILADELPHIA.


''Via Wireless" one of the most stir
ring melodramas of modern times will be
presented for the first and only time by a
resident theatrical company by the
Orpheum Players at the Chestnut Street
Theatre, Philadelphia, this week. It was
only last January that Frederick Thomp-
son startled Philadelphia with his tremen-
dous production of 'Via Wireless" The
drama written by Winchell Smith and
Paul Armstrong, played to capacity houses
for three weeks, and was to have returned
to Philadelphia early next month. 1t was
and has continued to be dramatic sensa-
ton of the hour, and its realistic ship
scene created more talk than any other
play of recent production. The success
of ''Via Wireless" so impressed Manager
Laferty of the Orpheum Company, that
at the first opportunity he entered into
negotiations with Mr.. Thompson for the
rights of producing the play. 1t required
considerable persuasion to induce Mr..
Thompson to part with the play for even
one week. His principal objection was
the belief that it could not be well done
by resident company. But after seeing
the Orpheum Players in a number of pro-
auctions, he became convinced that they
could do Justice to ''Via Wireless" and as
an indication of his confidence he granted
Manager Laferty the privilege of the play
and the entire production for one week.
This necessitated change in the Or
pheum's repertoire, and 'The Professors
Love Story" announced for this week,
will be presented during the week of No
vember 1. Besides securing the whole
production Mr.. Laferty engaged Joseph
Kaufman, the wireless operator, who has
been with the play from the beginning,
and who carries the big scene in the opera
ting room aboard the ship. Mr.. Kaufman
is an expert wireless man, and he has sue
ceeded in making the spectacular scene
of the play one of the most realistic ever
put on the stage. The thrill of the storm
at sea, in the big scene, the flash of the
wireless machine, and the mad endeavors
of the operator to help in the rescue are
vivid and full of action. The production
is the same as has been seen at the various
higher priced play-houses. All the Or
pheum Players, headed by William Inger-
soil and Miss Marion Barney, will be in
the cast.
