NEW YORK is INHABITED BY
OWLS, is OPIONION OF
MARIE DE TRACE.


Mis- De Trace who plays Beverly
in Beverly" at the Crescent Theater
next week, is a Kansas City girl, and
says that she prefers her natal place to
New York, with all its four million
inhabitants.
New York is fine city in many re-
spects," said Miss De Trace. They
have the tallest buildings, the largest
hotels, and the greatest summer re-
sorts, but 1 think the people must be
owls, for they never seem to sleep, and
the stranger within their gates has no
chance to sleep either-at least l
can't. l went on there in August to
rehearse for Beverly" and secured a
nice boarding place in the 40's, around
the corner from the elevated. The
first night l laid me down, a train
would rattle by about every minute. i
finally became used to that, and was
about half asleep, when a man across
the street started in to make deroga-
tory observations about his wife's rela-
tives, and his wife retorted with dishes
and glassware. After the racket had
lasted about half an hour, a policeman
came along and quieted the disturb
ance, and then stood on the curbstone
for ten minutes and told the neighbor-
hood what he thought of a domestic
brawl. When he departed a quar-
tette came down the street warbling
glees and chansons, and it seemed to
me they took half an hour to pass a
given point. As soon as the stong birds
had faded away, fight started in the
corner saloon and made enough noise
for the battle of Gettysburg. After
ages and ages, 1 finally went to sleep
and after nap of fully fifteen minutes
the milkmen making their FUNDS |
woke me up again. We may not |
have any Metropolitan towers or Coney
Islands in Missouri, but at least you
can sleep like a Christian, which is
