An Extra Picture at Dodse's Theatre
on Saturday Night-The Boer
War From Start to
Finish.
EDUCATIONAL TREAT
This Great Picture Of the Boer War
Is Not Only Exciting, But
instructive and Inter
esting.

Our picture story opens just before
the Boer war at the farm house Of
Jobe DeLarey, just outside Kimbe--
ly, S. A. Jobe's family are Beers
with all the strange customs aud
fierce hatreds of this mansplanteif
people all except his Oldest daugh-
ter Gretchen. She has attended the
English school at Kimberly, and while
there met and fell in love with Allen
Horribly, superintendent Of the mines.
Knowing that her fathers people
mean to fight the English. she tells
Allen to demand his consent to their
marriage. Allen replies and if he re-
fuses?" Then comes a true woman's
answer-"A woman's heart belongs
to her husband or her lover, not 20
any country or any flag" DeLarey
refuses his consent. Gretchen over
hears Piet Cronje tell her father TO
prepare for war, and that he intends
to seize the mines. Gretchen sees
Hans, a young Boer whom her father
wished her to marry, receive from
Cronje, message to the Common
does in their district, which meant
Aliens capture, If Hans delivered 1t.
| She by clever ruse steals both the
message and Hans horse and rides
| into Kimberly to warn the man she
loves. The message is missed, she is
pursued, and then at the bottom of
the shaft she renounces her people
and casts her lot with Allen.
Three months later we see re-
lief train outside Kimberly with it's
traction engine, outspans of oxen and
marching Highlanders. Then we are
with Pet Cronje at Kleppersdorf
where he captures the native dispatch
bearers and the news these dispatches
contain causes him to ay trap for
Hornby's scouts, body of men the
Supt. has organized and is leading
against the Beers. They ride into
the trap and in the stirring battle
that follows only escape annifilation
when passing regiment of Gordon
Highlanders come to their rescue.
We then follow the fortunes of
Cronje and his principal Lieutenant,
lobe DeLarey, through series of
battles that lead up to that last fatal
stand at Paradesburge where the
greatest General of modern times,
| the unconquered Bobs of England,
Lord Roberts, outwits the Beers and
| forces Cronje to surrender. Hans and
| DeLarey escape the net and ride into
Kimberly at night. DeLarey seeks
out his daughter determined to kill
her for her treachery to the Boer
cause Her husband, Allen Hornby
arrives in time to defeat this plan and
in the fight that follows Hans is
killed.
Our closing scene occurs at
Hornbys home two years after the
war. Old DeLarey broken and des-
+ titute comes to beg his daughters
I forgiveness and meets with a recep-
tion that insures his passing his de-
clining years by the Preside of the
man he had SO bitterly hated, but now
4 sees is noble man, gentleman, and
one who bears no malice And so
/ closes one of the best war dramas
! ever produced.
K This great picture will be shown as
an extra attraction at Dodge's tomor-
row night.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
TRENTON. November 1I.-Dapiel Hag-

prison, had desperate fight with David
CarbeTy, a convict, last night. Car
berry was attempting to escape when
espied by Hagerty, who was doing
watchman's duty on the top of the wall
that surrounded the prison building.
Hagerty attempted to draw his re-
volver. With terrific force Carberry
hurled at him a ball made of tinfoil
and tobacco tags. The ball struck Hag-
erty in the stomach, doubling him up.
The convict sprang upon the keeper.
There was a fierce struggle. The men
were i'm jeopardy of falling from the
wall to the ground, thirty feet below
During the fight Carberfy managed to
get one of Hagertys fingers between his
teeth. He held on until Hagerty choked
him and forced him TO let go.
No sooner had Hagerty released his
hold on Carberry's windpipe than the
convict knocked him down and got pos
session OF his revolver. Then he slid
down the wall and made his escape.
half hour later he was captured
while on his way to a bridge across the
Delaware river. Carberry Is desper-

The two additions to the collection are
described as small mce-like rodents. the
first of which was collected by J. Alden

account of its face being marked on each

In this special feature il differs from all
other known varieties of similar rodents
The other. called Mus peromyscus is
distinctly mouse-like and has great super
