life are delightful. There is also a
vein of pathos and Of course a pretty
love story is woven to happy con-
clusion. So many have read the novel
that mention of the motive of the piece
is unnecessary.
A. G. Delamater, who is directing
"Freckles,' has been fortunate in the
selection of the supporting cast.
In the title role John Roberts has
a part for which he is well fitted, and
he invests it with the required emo
ton and subdued acting. He has op-
portunities to overplay, but keeps
within the authors meaning and puF-
pose. He interpolates several songs
and displays sweet tenor voice. He
was heartily encored and graciously
responded. Miss Edith Mendoza, as
Angel, was real delight. She is
quite young and not unpretty. Her

HANGED AFTER SEVEN TRIALS.
ScaffoId Closes Notable Murder Case
in Texas -CuIprit Six Times Con-
demned to Death.

Waxahachie, Tex, Nov. 29.-Burrell
Oates, a negro, convicted of numbering
Sol Aronoff, of Dallas, eight years ago.
was hanged here today, closing thereby
one of the most notable legal incidents
in Texas Jurisprudence.
Oates without money or influential
friends, secured seven trials and was
the cause of two changes in Texas stat
utes during his long and remarkable
legal fight against the charge Of mur-
der.
Oates's fight for life was made all
the more remarkable by the fact that
every one of the his seven juries found
him guilty of murder and six Of them
condemned him to death. The other
jury, being unable to agree over the
penalty, caused a mistrial, although
declaring the negro's guilt.
Technicalities and at times more Sc
rious legal errors have been used re-
peatedly to secure new trials for Oates.
The sixth trial was declared void be-
cause they jury in writing it's verdict
inadvertently omitted the words "in
first degree" in finding Oates guilty.

: ''On the 9th Of November Chief Con-

it. told him TO seize it, which he did.
A little later Mr.. Kibler, Mr.. Gresham,
Dr.. Frank Hart and Mr.. jeff Goodwin
came to my Office, and DR.. Hart, speak
ing for the crowd, asked me how they
could recover the beer, stating that it
was for the use of the Shrlners for
their Thanksgiving dinner or celebra-
ton, and that Mr.. Gresham did not re-
eeive any pay for the same and had
no interest whatever in it.; that it be-
lenged to the Shriners themselves. l
told DR.. Hart that he could get it by
giving bond for it, Or by bringing
claim and delivery suit. He told me
that they did not know what to do and
had come to me for advice and hoped
that / would help them out. After
talking g. little more about the matter
