Spendthrift. This play In it's concep-
ton and execution is entirely different
from A Fool There Was, the drama
which first brought Porter Emerson
Browne into prominence as a play,
wright 1t deals with the frivolous
extravaganza of luxury loving wife,
and the financial ruin achieved by her
husband as a result of his efforts to
crafty her extravagant whims. When
she realizes the direful pass to which
their mode of life has brought them he
demands OF his wife the sacrifices that
are necessary, preparing at the same
time to make them himself. The
wife's life has been too easy-she has
not sufficient stamina to face compar-
alive poverty-and with the idea OF
relieving their monetary distress, she
borrows large sum from man
friend. This action hastens the in
evitable climax, which is in turn fol-
lowed by an entire readjustment of the
family relations, producing a condi-
ton more nearly approximating happi-
ness than any that has heretofore OBJ
tanned in the household
The play is In four acts, the first
three showing the lavishly furnished
and tastefully decorated interiors of a
well-to-do New York brokers home.
The last an attic room in lower east

peeially engaged by Mr.. Thompson for

RESIDENCE OF C. G. BLOYD
sss :s BURNED MONDAY RIGHT

The residence of Mr.. and Mrs. G. G.
Bloyd, GIG Mystic avenue. was destroy
ed by fire shortly after O'Clock Mon
day night entailing a loss of about
a thousand dollars. There was a small
amount of insurance on the property,
but it will not much, If any, exceed
half the value Of the place. The cause
of the fire is unknown, but it is sup
posed to have resulted from the ex-
plosion of a lamp. which had been left
burning by Mrs Bleyd during a trip
down town An alarm was sent in by
the neighbors. but the flames made
rapid progress and it was impossible
to save any OF the contents Of the
house, except a few chairs and some
other furnishings of small value.
The unusually muddy condition of
the streets, resulting from the heavy
rain of the previous afternoon, made
the run for the fire department a nee
essarily slow one and the house was
ruin on its arrival at the scene of
the confagration. Mr.. Bloyd is a mem
ber OF the fire department and did not
know that the property that he had
been called out to save was his own
until reaching the scene OF trouble.

are more carefully classified. Thence
they are sent to the institutions where
they are most needed or desired
Reports and the results OF the scien-

will be made of the extensive land
slides and rock streams OF the vol
