FRANCE To DRIVE
ANARCHISTS OUT.

PARIS, April 30.-As a result of yester-
days sensational fight with the automo-
bile bandit band France is to wage a re-
~lentless war against all anarchists. The
police are amazed at the large number of
anarchists who have taken refuge in
Paris recently from all European coun-
tries. These will be arrested as fast as
possible aud driven from France as enc
mics to society.
At the funeral of Assistant Superin-
tendent Jouin, of the detective depart
ment, who was killed while trying to
arrest Bonnet a few days ago, prefect of
Police Lepine delivered an address
lrging more severe punishment of crlmi-
nails OF all classes. He declared there
was a tendency throughout the world to
treat youthful wrongdoers leniently on
the ground that they were not RESPONSE
BILE for their acts, and that this ten
dency was creating a great menace TO
the security of the people.
The melodramatic end of Bonnet has
called forth much admiration among Ger
tain portions of the revolutionary classes
of Paris Many arrests have been made
for public expression OF this attitude.
The last of the phantom bandits,
GARNER, the chief lieutenant of Bonnet,
arrested late last night. He was sur
nrised i'm a room in the heart of the city.
He surrendered without a fight. The ar
rest nut a peaceful end to the prepara-
lions by the police to dynamite an an
archist den where the police thought
GARNER was hiding.

HUSBAND;
SHE ASKS DECREE

NEW YORK. April 90.-Mrs. Eugene S.
Brown, who gave Harvey o.. Brown, of
Washington, ID. c., 1900 to marry her,
applied to the Supreme Court to have
the marriage annulled.
The unusual feature of the annulment
suit is that Mrs. Brown is asking for re-
lief on the ground that her husband never
lived with her or supported her, notwith-
standing the fact that it was expressly
stated in n prenuptial contract that ne
must separate himself from her imme-
diately after the marriage.
Mrs. Brown, who was known as Mrs,
Eugene Adams before her marriage in
October. 1910, was the recipient of a leg
acy from a German uncle. His will pro-
vided that if she marry within a week
after being notified of the legacy she
would receive the money. Her failure to
marry would have caused her to lose the
bequest.
Miss Adams advertised in Washington
for a man who would marry her for $500
and leave her at the altar. She select
ed Brown from the numerous candidates.
He signed a p%re-nuptial agreement to the
effect that he would never attemps to
see, visit, modest or annoy" his bride,
He has kept his word.

ANDREW MACK At
NEWARK, SCORES.
In Tom Moore" Irish Com
edian Sings His Way Into
Local Hearts.

Though his voice may have lost some
of its richness. Andrew Mack, by his
rendering of Irish ballads with a true
national sentiment, is still able to cap
tivate an audience by his singing. II is
his singing of several famous ballads
that makes up for any shortcomings
that may be found in his latest play,
Moore" in which he appeared at
the Newark Theatre last night. The
play gives occasional evidence of having
been built TO order. and there are times
when perhaps it would lag In interest
but for the singing of Mr.. Mack.
As a comedian Mr.. Mack possesses a
keen sense OF humor and a truly Irish
quickness of repartee. He portrays Tom
Moore, Ireland's poet. a role that is par
ticularly adapted to his style of acting,
In a manenr that meets with instant APP
prevail. He is we'll supported by Miss
Mae Stevenson. in the role Of Bessie
Dyke. a young school teacher, and by
P. Creighton Hale. as Buster, a valet.
Many OF the company have a tendency
to e%xaggerate their parts, especially Is
this true in speaking. the brogue being
at times too pronounced.
The play will meet with the approval
OF all admirers of Mack's style of acting
and singing. The play is built around
several incidents in the life of Tom
Moore, the Irish poet. The opening scene
is I'm a country schoolroom In ireland.
Here Moore is c~aptiyated by the pretty
school mistress, who, through the infiu-
ence of Lord Lovelace, goes on the
stage. she later eaptiyates London
audiences.
Moore, following his boyhood love, also
goes to London to struggle along as a
poet. He lives In a garnet with Buster.
his servant. Moore finally wins the favor
OF Lord Moirs, who obtains for him the
recognition of the prince regent and
soon he becomes the talk OF l.ondon
society, until he becomes a victim to
Lord Lovelace's plot, and. attempting to
shield Ressie's father. incurs the Ire of
the prince. This sends him back to
Poverty Row" but his fluctuations are
soon relieved.
During the action of the play, Mr..
Mack renders Moore's famous ballads,
"Evelyn's Bower" Loves Young
Dream. THE Last Rose of Summer,
and several OF his own compositions, in
