HORSE IN BARBER SHOP.
Runaway Steed Dashes Madly Down
Steps Leading to Tonsorial
Parlor.

BeIated customers who were being
shaved in the Kenyon barber shop at
the southeast corner of Main and Sec
ond South streets, were disturbed at
IL 80 O'Clock last night when they heard
a tremendous rumble and crashing of
glass over their heads. BARRIERS and
customers with lathered faces ran to
the door, but egress was blocked by a
runaway horse, which had dashed mad
~ down Main street and turned into
the narrow stairway leading to the
barber shop basement, where the ami
NAL struck the staircase with terrific
impact.
The horse was attached TO a light de-
livery wagon, and was the property of
the Smith Grocery company, Twelfth
South and Fourth East streets. That
somebody was not seriously hurt
seemed remarkable, as even at the late
hour the busy corner of Second South
and Main streets was crowded with
people waiting for junction cars. Pa
trolman c. A. CarlsbOrg was standing
at the corner and heard the rumble of
the runaway coming down Main street
and warned the crowd.
The horse plunged halfway down the
narrow stairway. The alleged With
cism that the steed wanted a shave was
uttered simultaneously by BARRIERS and
patrons, and the joke was entered on
the office files.

4 WOMAN IN ROLE
Of CHANTECLER
Maude Adams Will Interpret
the Part of the
Rooster.
PRESENTED NEXT FALL
MANUSCRIPT OF PLAY NOW I'M
HANDS OF ACTRESS.
PRESENTED NEXT FALL

New York, April s.-Charles Frohman
has cabled from London confirming the
report that Miss Maude Adams would ap-
pear in the American presentation OF
-Chantecler," playing the role of the cock.
now being acted in Paris by Guitry, the
French uagedian.
At the close of her present season in
Barrie's comedy, What Every Woman
knows" Miss Adams viii begin Tehears-
ais of the ROstand fantasy, and will have
n ready for production IN the early fan.
Until this message came it was the gen
eral impression that Otis Skinner would
Inc Mr.. Frohman's selection for the role,
although Miss Adams name had been
mentioned IN connection with the per
Torrance of the part of the pheasant,
which is interpreted in Paris by Nine. 81
none.
The manuscript was delivered to Miss
Adams this morning at the Congress no.
tel. She will receive the scene models and
costume plates of the Paris production
soon.
Miss Adams declared that she had al
ready determined upon her interpreta-
ton of the role of the cock and pract-
eally had crystallized in her mind the
message the play contained, not only for
the French but for all peoples, and, in
a particular sense, for Americans.
As played by Guitry, Chantecler is
''presque un dieu''-almost a god. He is
a hero, a creature OF gravity, a lover OF
beauty-a thinker.
Miss Adams idea of Chantecler is that
he is a composite of gravity and gayety.
The theme of the play, she believes, IS
that one should do ones work, even though
il costs love and life mans work in
''Chantecler'' is exempl:fied by the cock s
vain thought that it is he who, at the
mornings crow. raises the sun and lights
the world. He lives TO learn, in moment
of distraction. attracted by the rossignol
(WOman), that the sun rises despite MIN.
He finds that his work is not 50 important
as he thinks, but he persists just the
same.
Miss Adams says that in her mind
"Chantecler' is a poetic lesson in the doc
trine of faith and hope through work.
