NEWS OF THE THEATRES


Tim Murphy is to be at Shelton's
Theatre tonight presenting his new
est and what has proven to be his
most popular comedy, THE Poor
Rich, and In which his whimsical
hnmor and buoyant spirit is given
such exceptional opportunity The
company surrounding this popular
comedian is the best he has ever had
an includes Dorothy Sherrod and a
long list of metropolitan favorites
The production Is on Mr. Murphvs
usual scale of magnificence and IN
gowns made by Worth and Pacquln
of Paris for their recent New York
exhibition. Mr.. Murphy's role, Davy
Dunn, loveable old optimist Is oaa
of gleeful JUNCTION, appealing to
every man and his sense of fun, bas-
ed on every day human nature, such
as furnished Jefferson Raymond
I'd Russell their best types, as we'll
as all that sparkling humor which
distinguishes Tim Murphy in his per-
formances wherever a dramattst Is
inspired with the real human touch.
The passing of Joseph Jefferson,
John T. Raymond and Sol Smith
Russell leaves Mr.. Murphy as the
solitary exponent OF the quantity
American character. He plays mer
| of this country and OF the soil. Their
1 are skilled portrayers OF the impu
dent exotlcs of the city streets AM
of the artificial creatures OF snob
dom, but they are not more native
american than to any large Euro
pean city. The types that Murphy dts
closes are unmistakably American
and exclusively American. Always
unique and individual on our stage,
they are now more rare than ever
because there is no artist on the
stage with Murphy's remarkable
skill. In THE Poor Rich" Mr. Nun
ply has role that calls for all his
skill and his twenty-five years ex
perience as an actor proves OF great
value

Depredations of Bugs.

San Antonio, Texas, Oct. 25.---
During the last week San Antonio
and other Texas cities were visited
by swarms of little green bugs that
swarmed about electric lights and
about lights in the houses whenever
they could enter Nothing like them
was ever seen before. Apparently
they numbered in the billions They
did no damage and disappeared with
the approach of the north wind
But stranger visitors are reported
TO have visited Galveston. In swarms
SO thick as to dim the brightness or
the early morning sun myriads Oh
varied-colored butterflies descended
on the city, circling for several
hours Just above the high buildings
and then settling down In the gar
deps and lawns. It is not known
whether they were attracted by the
sweetness OF the flowers or what
brought them, but they spent the
day in the clay and about dusk NOV
ed Off toward the mainland. Scien-
fists who examined them said thcF
belonged to a species found extern
siyely in Mexico. They caused no an
noyance, and, In fact we're welcome
visitors.
