Few people outside OF the dramatic
profession realize what it means to
a manager to find a suitable play.
A good play is as rare as the most
precious gem. 1t must contain a
strong plot, plenty of good comedy
and have a heart interest that will
appeal to the one who buys the par
quet seat as well as the boy in the
gallery. When you succeed in MAX
ing your audience cry, as well as
laugh, then you have found a play
that will stand the test of time.
When the audience. leave after the
final drop of the curtain feeling per-
fectly satisfied that they have been
well entertained. the success of your
play is assured. Such a play is the

read many manuscripts before he
inallv accepted Mr. ReiG's play, as
he only one that would fill the re-
luirements.

NIGHT PASSED IN PRISON
Old Soldier Produces TWen.y-DolIar

Keeping the Change
Home xois.

VENICE, March 14.-The members
of the police department are deriving
much amusement over a little episode
that occurred yesterday in connection
with the arrest of John Osborn, an old
soldier.
Osborn was taken in the night before
in a helpless condition, having been
overcome by an overindulgence in al
coholic beverages. On being searched
it was found that the old man had i'll
the neighborhood of $3.50 on his person,
having recently drawn his pension
money.
Yesterday morning, when he had be-
come sober. he was brought into the
Office and his bail was fixed at the
nominal sum of $40. The veteran
sprung a double eagle on the desk SER
geant and die was forced to go for
change, leaving his prisoner to watch
the office during his absence.
A merchant happening to drop in
noticed Osborn's nervous condition, and
asking the cause was informed that he
wished that that sergeant would
hurry up and come back and turn me
loose, as l am getting hungry; besides,
there are couple of fellows in there
that are liable to raise a disturbance,
and l don't like to leave the Jail all
alone"
When Sergt Perrent returned with
the change his charge informed him
that he was going to forfeit his bail
rather than take the trouble to appear
later in the day for trial, and that, as
ne was in the habit of always tipping
the employees of hotels where he
stopped for the night. he could keep the
other ten. During the sergeant's con-
sequent fainting spell Osborn walked
out of the office and has not been seen
since

roads part in the tree planting project
along the right of way into the city.

prietor of the Model bakery on Orange
street, was hurled from the roof of
the building in the rear of the shop
to the ground, breaking his right leg
near the ankle and burning his face Sc
Verely.
Mr.. Boberick assembled to the roof
to see how much oil was in the tank
and, after reaching the top, he dipped
a broomstick into the oil and then
lighted a match to see how far up the
broomstick the oil came. The gas from
the distillate caught fire Immediately,
causing the explosion. The fire depart
n1ent was called and was unable to
cope with the blaze, owing to the oil
burning, so all efforts We're put forth
to spraying nearby buildings and the
roof. In this they were successful in
combining the fire to the tank. The
loss is about $3.50. Mr.. Boberick is
resting easily today.
