CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE.

"The White Sister" a dramatization
of F. Marion Crawfords famous story of
Sister Giovanni, and a play in which
Viola Allen scored one of the greatest
triumphs of her career, will be presented
by the Orpheum Players at the Chestnut
Street Theatre, Philadelphia, during the
week of April 10th. "The White Sister,
is full of religious sentiment and the
character of Sister Giovanni is ruled by
that fervor and that true faith, which leads
pure women from the outer world into
the church, there to consecrate their lives
to the service of the creator Angela
Chiramonte receives a report that her
lover, Captain Giovanni Severi, has been
killed in battle in Africa. Five years
pass and Angela is now in Convent Hos
pital, as Sister Giovanni-happy in the
thought of being true to her lover, hope
full of meeting him in the future life, and
living true to her VOWS of poverty, hunil-
ity and chastity, when suddenly at the
bedside of his brother, she meets Giovan-
nj in life and knows that the report of his
death was an error. Her dream is ended
Staggered by her love for Giovanni and
bound by her vows to the church, she
determines to give up her lover and flee
to the Leper Colony at Rangoon, for which
the Convent has been asked to furnish
four nurses Giovanni is determined to
wed Sister Giovanni and after learning of
her intentions to depart, entices her to his
room, where he presents her with writ
ten application for her signature, asking
the Pope to annul her vows, with prom
Use of shooting himself if she refuses to
sign the application. The climax is an
unusual one for the stage, snd the play
wright had reason for bringing it about,
which will be better apprec lated by wit
Messing the performance. The full
strength of the Orpheum Company will
be used in '"The White Sister" and the
usual daily matinees will be in progress,
with the popular prices.

AUDITORIUM THEATRE

A bright and tuneful comedy salad ia
bascoed with musical dressing entitled
Gay Matilda" is to be the attraction at
the auditorium theatre, Burlington, Thurs
day night. The piece comes heralded as
lively farce in which song numbers of the
high order prevail. One of the scenes
is laid in the dressing room and on the
stage of a theatre, thereby giving lots of
room for numerous complications and in
teresting preplexities. The cast that is to
present this amusing farce is headed by
the well-known comedian Walter E Per-
kins. Nine Jane Arcdynska an Ameri-
can prima donna with European reputa-
ton is one of the principals whose power
OF song will be found most enchanting.
She will sing number of operate selec-
tons that will certainly please. Another
in the cast is John Willard, the late bari
tone with the Hammerstein Manhattan
Opera Company. Harriet Sheldon is also
one of the quaintette that will help make
Cay Matilda" a farce worth seeing Her
work is we'll remembered as being ''clean
cut as cameo" Jack Terry the fifth in
the cast is nephew of Ellen Terry and
himself was one of Sir Henry E. Irving's
principal juvenile actors, later playing
tenor roles in the George Edwards com
panies in England. Isabel Daintry di-
mutive little soubrette has reputation in
three continents. Joseph Weber prince
of comedians will have role entirely sat

GARRIcK THEATRE

GARR1CK THEATRE
Seth Smith, who plays the unobstruc-
tive role of the butler in the first act of
THE Fortune Hunter at the Garrick
Theatre, Philadelphia, is a Welshman.
Born in Cardiff, South Wales, Great Brit
ain, he began his theatrical career as a
character song and dance artist in his
home town, and when eighteen years of
age he started for America by the way of
Australia. This was in 1874. Drifting in
to the northwest Mr.. Smith engaged him
self with a medicine show, touring
through Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa.
His duties were confined to guarding the
treasury of the outfit by day and deliver
ing song ambulance from the cart-tai1 of
a light road wagon by night. The vehicle
also served as the conveyance of the treas
ury and its keeper from town to town, and
as macadamized roads in those days were
unheard of, Mr.. Smiths most vivid re-
collections of trying to keep the hind
wheels of the carryall from sliding off the
beaten trail and dragging the outfit from
PERCEPTIONS mountain sides, or keeping
the bed of the wagon from parting COM
pany with the running gear while fording
small rivers and swollen mountain streams.
''The life of medicine Snowman, how
ever, has its humorous Sides says Mr..
Smith, and one of these occurred in Man
cato, Minnesota. The manager of our
troupe had beat it with the Doodle bag
from the last town, and after giving our
regular outdoor performance in Mancato
and counting up the receipts, found that
the funds in hand aggregated the NUM-
fcient sum of $I.oo AS this bank roll
was inadequate to liquidate our hotel bill,
we compromised with the landlord who
joined the troupe in the capacity of treas
urer, thereby hoping to collect his bill at
the next play-date. To curtail the story,
that particular Landlord became the nu-
cleus of number of other bonifaces who,
to protect their interests, adopted the idea
of the hotel man from Mancato and Join
ed OUT with US. So that by the time we
reached Polk City, Iowa, the hotel men
enrolled on the salary list outnumbered
the regular actors two to one. AS they
had becomed enamored of the nomadic
life of the road and were, furthermore,
familiarized with the details of the medi-
cine show business, they grabbed the par
aphernalia, lock, stock and barrel, and
left us high and dry in Polk City, which
in those days had only about two inhabi-
tants and no railroad connection. 1 fin
ally reached Chicago by easy stages-if
you call tramp of that distance easy
and for all know, the optimistic land
lords are still running the medicine show
outfit. That experience, however, cured
me. Ever since have confined my en-
deavors to the acquisition of an engage
ment with organizations in which the
ghost could be cajoled into perambulat-
ing, at least internationally, without the
necessity of resorting to banjo solo de-
livered from the end gate of a wobbly
wagon under the uncertain glare of far
ing gasoline torch"

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

Brown boots may be blackened by
rubbing the backing we'll into the
shoes with a raw potato and then pol
ishing.
A nutpick kept on the kitchen table
is q most convenient article for re-
moving the paper cover from the milk
bottles.
To waterproof boots melt together
two parts of beeswaX with one part
of mutton fat and apply to the leath-
err at night.
Soak new brooms in strong hot salt
water before using; this toughens
the bristles and makes the brooms
last longer.
Shavings of cedar wood or cam
phor, enclosed in muslin bags, and
the latter distributed among the
clothes will prevent moths.
See hat anything slowed away for
wise it absorbs impurities or may
faint eggs butter and milk.
Brush gilt braid free from dust
with a fine brush and rub on it pow
dered rock alum, which will remove
the tarnish when it is brushed Of
When food has accidentally been
made too salty in cooking, the eff
feet may be counteracted by adding
a. tablespoonful of vinegar and one
of sugar.
For those having asparagus ferns
that do not seem to grow try putting
a spoonful of castor oil around the
roots and noice the change in about
six weeks.
Banana, pulped and seasoned with
lemon is a tasty filing for a brown
bread sandwich. For the luncheon
or the o'clock tea they will be found
delicious.

sirable.
Sew the skirt binding on the hem
of your skirt before you press it.
Pressing the goods f1attens it. and it
becomes difficult to fell the braid on

Put a goodsized lump of salt into a
cup of vinegar and put into the YES
sci that is discolored and let it stand
for half a day. Wash well with warm
water and soap and sediment will
come off easily.
An easy way to mend torn lace is
to place a piece of paper under the
place to be sewed and then to stitch
on the machine until this hole is fill
ed Use very fine thread and pick
out the paper afterward.
Clean mating with bran instead of
washing it with soap and water. Tie
the bran in a cheesecloth bag, dip
the bag into clean, warm water, rub
the floor briskly, with it and rinse
with cloth wrung from warm salt

Wins Coveted
De Forest Prize
Chinaman Caps Brilliant
! Career at Yale by Win
ming Big Senior Honor.

\ Taking as the inspiration of his adj
dress yale Spirit Yun-Hsing Ts'ao
of Shanghai, China, senior at Yale,
last evening won the coveted DeFor-
est award for public speaking, given
annually as the highest award for
this line of activity in the Academic
Senior class at Yale. This victory
comes as a climax to a victorious
speaking career at Yale for this ac-
complished young Chinaman, who in
Sophomore year won the defamation
prize offered for that year and in
Junior year captured the Ten Eyck.
Mr.. Ts'ao speaks in a quiet yet con-
ylnclng manner. His gestures are ex-
ceedingly graceful and add piquancy
to we'll modulated delivery. The
subject of the young mans remarks
was one which has been often before
considered by Yale speakers. But
never before has it been SO skillfully
handled nor with such interest to the
audience. 1t may be further asserted
that the winning speech was the best
since 1903. when James Howard de-
livered an Grafton on THE Call of
the Christian Ministry
yale Spirit" says Mr.. Ts'ao, is one
of self-sa criffce and attainment An
undergraduate grasps this in the class
room, in the Christian broadminded-
ness of fellowship and on the athletic
field. To do and accomplish becomes
the by-wOrd of Yale men. Thus grad
yates such as Nathan Hale and Feni-
more Cooper are fitting examples of
this sentiment and stand forth as true
products of the Yale spirit in it's mis-
sion as Mother of men," These Yale
men are not known for their wealth
which to some is an indication of
success. Rather do they answer the
question of true men. What has he

High School Notes.

The Sophomore English class
is going back to the grade stud
les. They are learning their
sixth grade grammar now, for
when called upon to conjugate a
simple verb the other day, they
couldn't do it.
One of the teachers classified
one of the Sophomore boys as a
sieve" for as fast as anything
went into his head, it sifted
right out again.
The Freshmen is the only
class in high school that have a
license to spoon" at any rate
they are the only class that avail
themselves of the privilege.
Last Friday night the senior
class attended the high school
reception at Denver University.
The main feature of the evening
was a Latin play. We came
