AID FOR ACTORS KIN
Sisters of the Late Roland Reed, the
Well Known Comedian, Living
In the Shadow OF Starvation.
CHerald Specially

Philadelphia, Pa, Dec. IA big
benefit performance was given at the
Chestnut Street Theatre this after5
noon in aid of Miss Florence and Miss
Laura Reed, sisters of the late Roland
Reed, the well known comedian. The
two sisters, now elderly women and
destitute, were recently found living
in a howell in the slums of this city,
often sleeping on park benches, and
always in the shadow of Starvation.
During Mr.. Reeds life he maintained
for them a comfortable hope- but
after his death they soon lost, through.
lack of business training and. their
own generosity, the small S@te he
left.
Messrs. Nixon and Zimmerman,
Francis Wilson and other well known
members of the theatrical professions,
contributed their services to the benz:
eft performance. Many others who
we're unable to take part sent liberal
checks to aid in the relief of the
destitute women.

orchestral selection of different in

made a decided hit by her artistic

The humorous recitative with piano
accompaniment was especially ap-

Several stage effects were intro

that they proposed that his commit

Hay is something more than mes

about Mr.. Coon and his forced sub
servience at the session Of 1907. So
he told the gentlemen that since pro-
vision was made for the appointment
of committees by the lieutenant gov
ernor, he conceived it his duty to ap-
point the committees and he pro-
posed to do it. If then the senators
did not find the selections to their
liking they might exercise their right
not to confirm. That was their con-
Germ. They went away dazed and
the lieutenant governor with a back
bone went quietly on formulating his
committees. Whereat those who

committee appointments. Nor did

But Mr.. Hay had so much to do with
the matter that several of those who
had agreed to vote for Lysons asked
to be released. Lysons, by the way,
finds it most unusual to reside in

the best he can in the state library,

The temperature of the past week
proved about as "paniky" in taking a
downward tumble as it did the pre-
vious week in trying to get as high
as it could. Thursday evening and
Friday morning ushered in about
four inches of snow on the level
which made some very nice sleighing
Saturday and Sunday. While Satur-
day was a very mild day our old
friend Sol, with very gentle chin
ook wind, visited us Sunday and
Monday, which proved disastrous to
our snow for sleighing, and Monday
evening was the scene of several
hours of gentle rainfall.
A heavy shower also came up We'd
nesday evening, starting in about five
o'clock and continuing until nearly
twelve. On Thursday it also rained
for about an hour at noon, adding a
great deal of moisture to that which
before covered the ground.
While the ground was frozen sew
eral inches in depth so gradual has
been the melting of the snow that
very little of the moisture will es-
cape.
The rapid changes has been hav-
ing a bad effect on the railroads in
the mountains, as trains in both d.
rections have been coming in many
hours behind schedule, some days be-
