"A Fool There Was"

Not since Charles Warner played the absinthe crazed Coupeau In Drink" or Mansfield as the palsied and eVil-cor- roded Chevrial went crashing down among his banquet -bidden coryphees in "A Parisian Romance" has the stage witnessed a more startling portrayal or fallen manhood than Robert Hilliard gives in the last act of "A Fool There Was" which comes to the Jefferson the atre on Monday and Tuesday nights. The seat sale opens Friday morning.

Miss Clara Lipman

The idea of "The Marriage of a Star" in which Miss Clara Lpman will be seen at the Shubert theatre tonight, though in it's essence as old as Greek trag- edy. or on the modern stage, as Schiller's Don Carlos" is neither haekneyed nor morbid. Briefly it tells the story of an American boy who becomes engaged to an American girl whose mother is a French actress. Seats are now on sale.

COREY'S ASSISTANT
 HERE TO INSPECT
J. II. GRAY ENTHUSIASTIC OVER THE GREAT CHANGES THAT HAVE WROUGHT AT ENsLEY. WILL BE HERE TODAY

For the purpose of looking over the lo- cal properties of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company. J. H. Gray. as- sistant to W. E. Corey, president of the 1 United States Steel corporation, is in Bir- mingham.
 When seen at the Hillman last night Mir. Gray said his visit was of no special importance as he was here simply for the purpose of getting a line upon the progress made and looking into the oper- ations of the local plants of the cor poration.
 He visited Ensley yesterday where the vast developments were shown him, and last night was inclined to talk of noth- ing else except the marvellous changes that have taken place in the properties, and the skill exercised by President Cor don Crawford in the management of the local situation. He said that in three years changes that would baffle the un- derstanding of many experts had taken place. He spoke enthusiastically of the spirit of cooperation which is to be ob- served as prevailing between the em- ployes of the local company and Presi- dent Crawford
 "The plant at Ensley Is certainly in tip- l top share," said MT Gray last night. Any one at all familiar with conditions can readily sec the most interesting inn provements that have been made. l come here only once in a while, yet l can see at a glance that great changes have taken place here under Mr Craw- fords management, and the executives The men at Ensley seem to think there is no man like him. That spirit of CO., operation between the executives and the rank and file cannot fail to produce re- suits in work such as MT. Crawford is doing. I am very much pleased with every feature of operations here. The plants are in fine shape and MT. Craw- ford has every detail so finely arranged as to stimulate the best effort of every employe."
 In talking of business. MT. Gray said he did not think any country with such a fine crop as this could fail to enjoy great business activity. He said the rail- roads would have their capacity tested in handling the immense tonnages and their prosperity would in turn assist every industry in getting into better shape.
 MT. Gray will probably return to New York this evening.

Gale Upon Lake
Overtakes Boats
Sudden Blow Following Heat Of
Wednesday Nearly Causes
Trouble at Manawa.

The sudden gale late Wednesday night
that caused a quick fall of thirty degrees
in the temperature created CONSERVATION
among the sailing and other craft at
Manawa. Many boats, including rowboats
and launches, were caught far out in the
lake and they had a stiff fight to reach
the land. Several narrow escapes from
serious accidents were reported yesterday.
The two napotha launches that ply between
the north shore and the Kursaal were
caught in the middle of the lake, heavily
laden with passengers. While near to-
gether the power gave out on one and II
was taken in two by the other. The strain
OF the extra load and the severe buffeting
Pof the waves was too much and the rescue
boat almost lost its power. The passengers
mostly women and children, became hyster-
ical. 1t required three-quarters Of anNhoul
before the engines were set going again
and the two loads of passengers did not
reach shore until 1 o'clock.
Some of the smaller launches and row.
boats were severely pummeled by the waves
and their crews came In thoroughly
