IRELAND SCENE OF
 MUCH VIOLENCE
Pnrtisans on Home Rule Question. Orangemen Almost Up in Arms

Dublin. January 2s.-(Special 1.-The Orangemen and their tory allies are as violent and rampant as ever. They re- gently assassinated Thomas McClorey in South Down. McClorey and two fellow nationalists were assaulted on the night before election, on the road at Rainfall and He died from his injuries The re- spectacle Protestants of that section who are opposed to violence have denounced the crime. No arrests have been made. The Right Rev. Dr. Elliott, Episcopal Bishop of Fillmore, who is tory and opposed to home rule, has denounced the Orangemen and unionsts who have been advising revolt in case England grants Ireland the right to govern itself In public letter he said:
 Tt seems to me as If the unionists are cursed with an excess of sentiment and . dearth of common sense.
 If home rule comes, to talk of resist ing 1t by force of arms Is not only wick cd. but absurd. and If we are, by sense of Englands ingratitude, to become as- eimilated to the nationalists in disloyalty and hatred of everything British, the prospect is most repulsive.'
 The Belfast news letter announces that in view of home rule drilling operations are in full swing among Orangemen throughout Ulster. Some 5000 men have expressed their willingness to take up

Mrs. Neaumont Packard, a noted figure
 in stage life, recently died in Brooklyn. Mrs Packard came from California and opened an agency for plays and perform CTS. Railing from California, she began her business career with the patronage of stock managers of the west, as well as that of such Californian New Workers as David Belasco, Joseph Grismer and others. Her business grew to such pro- portions that she was obliged to drop the brokerage feature and conflne herself to the bringing together of actors and managers. Her success was emphatic and she enjoyed the business confidence of managers and players alike. More than 130,OOO names of actors and actresses were listed on her books.
 Mrs. Packard was one of the founders of the California club, and a foremost mover In the work stage people did for the relief of sufferers from the San Fran cisco earthquake.
 Two Brooklyn tailors who didn't know enough to stick to their trades have been sentenced to serve not less than five years or not more than nine years and six months at hard labor in Sing Sing. They
 were convicted of grand larceny.
 Some time ago the tailors hit upon the idea of turning theatrical producers. They organized themselves into an amusement company and inserted a modest but artfully worded advertise
 ment in the papers
 One of those who answered the adver- | tisements was Margaret Stevens. a trained nurse. They induced her to sur
 render to them her savings of life time on the promise that her money would bA n a play called Hearts' and that she would be the treasurer of the company. Hearts was never produced and Miss Stevens, after trying vainly to get her savings back. caused the arrest of the men. Assistant District Attorney Mcclure says they defrauded others.

WEEKLY THEATRICAL LETTER

ic pervaded the air. Almost everybody in the auditorium, 1t seemed. was a student of the mystic, except the members of the orchestra and the stage hands. Of course. there were some outsiders, and to them it was as much of a treat as it was to the followers of prestidgitation. The outsiders saw things disappear right before their eyes and, while they kept their hands on their coats and hats, they watched the performance eagerly.
 Even the man in the box office had a knowledge of magic. Every dollar placed before him disappeared immediately after being pushed through the window.
 It was the third presentation of mys- tery' by the society and it's object was principally to secure funds to be used in the erection of magic building.
 The magicians and their families were all acquainted and big magicians, little magicians and medium sized magicians visited around the place whenever ther was an internisson.
 There has been introduced at the Knickerbocxer theatre a newly invented sounding board that repeated tests have already proved will make it possible for the faintest whisper to be heard in the remotest part of the theatre. It Is a new approach to the old subject of theatre acoustics; only 1t goes at the problem the other way around, economlzing sound as 1t comes from the stage, instead of directing sound in particular way from the stage.
 The new device virtually amounts to converting theatre auditorium into a solid drum with on other opening than the aisles and the proscenium arch ot the stage. Although the plans for the new sounding board have been thus far executed on the lower floor and the first balcony of the Knicckerbocker theatre, 1t has been decided that the invention has proved itself, and a patent has already been applied for.

From the Youths Companion.
 Mrs. MacLachlan was kind to her American boarder. but she did not pro- pose to allow her to overstep the limits of a boarder's privileges, and she made it very clear.
 One Sunday the boarder, returning from a walk. found the windows of her room which she had left wide open, tightly closed.
 ..Oh. Mrs MacLachlan. don't like my roonsa to get stuffy.' she said when she went downstairs again. "I like plenty of fresh air."
