ed off the New York quarantine af-
ter a trip of fourteen days, towing
a $4,000 ton dry dock from Pensa-

have taken the dry docks as a prize
of war this country paid for it and
towed it to Florida. The dock is

PLEASING BILL
AT PROCTOR'S
Big Minstrel Act Is Full
of Laughs.

The first act was the Hoffman Duo.
The man plays the cello about as
good as l ever heard, and the girl
well, she is some singer. There is
quite a bit of comedy in the act, the
man Is an old German professor and
she's his pupil. The act went big,
especially the singing.
VIII Davis got the bead on the au-
dience all right. He handed them
a big surprise. ! can't tell you
about 1t for you'd get wise and spoil
1t all. But after the surprise he gets
down to work, and say, he's got a
lot OF stories that are rippers. I've
heard his songs before-but he gets
them over great.
Russell's Minstrel Comedians
five of EMS just like a minstrel
show. They sit around and tell
jokes and each one gets up and sings
his song-some are bass, some tenor,
some the middle between the two,
and there are t~wenty-nine painted
minstrels sitting behind, and in the
dark they look like the real thing.
Russell Is the funniest-he talks in
a funny, slow way as if he didn't care
whether he did or not and it makes
folks laugh. All the men have got
good voices-and one fellow dresses
all up in white and dances.
The moving pictures are great.
Plenty OF 'em and the latest subjects
by the best companies. l could rave
over some l saw today.
Now boys and girls-particularly
boys, listen On Saturday at the
matinee, all the kids are going to get
souvenirs-boys too. It's a kind OF
a bird, and you can make it fly, II
sure looks good to me-and you'll
bet I'll be on deck. l think it's
about time we got something, What
do you think?
So long.

NINE TOTS AT
DAY NURSERY
institution Is Big Success =
List of Donations.

Nine little tots were accommo-
dated yesterday at the Day Nursery
in Mechanic street. The officers and
members of the Day Nursery Asso-
citation, which has the institution in
charge, are highly elated over the
success of the project while yet in
it's infancy. The number of chill
dren accommodated yesterday was
the highest since the opening OF the
nursery about a week go. The boys
and girls, all below five years old,
arrived in the morning and stayed
until dusk, receiving careful atten-
ton from the m%atron, Mrs. A. e.
Dunton. Only fifteen children can
be accommodated at the nursery,
and the officials of the association
are already wondering what steps
to take when the building becomes
crowded.
Many useful things were received
on Donation Day, held last week
on the official opening of the nur-
sery, but Mrs. William II. Bawden,
president of the association, reports
that a number of other articles are
needed to complete the coy little
home. All articles now in use in
the home were donated, and the
following are still needed: chair for
matron's bedroom, seven adjustable
screens and two screen doors.
Among the articles received on
Donation Day were the following:
SO jars of jelly, jam and preserves.
60 boxes of crackers, 6 boxes of
macaroni, 6 boxes of Persil, 4 cans
of cocoa, 80 pounds of sugar, 6
pounds of rice, 2 bags of salt, 3
pounds of prunes, / pound of cof-
fee, rs cakes of soap, Is cans of
condensed milk, 2 cans of Karo
2 cans of soup, 6 cans Of baked
beans, 6 dozen bottles of Borden's
matted milk, and quantities of
flour and potatoes.
Mrs. Bawden relates an amusing
incident which occurred last Sunday
and which plainly demonstrates the
attitude the children take towards
the Day Nursery. One of the little
girls who was at the nursery Sat
urday, and who lives in the vicinity
of Mechanic street, ran away from
home Sunday and was found later
by the anxious mother at the Day
Nursery.
