Academy.

A capacity audience was on hand last
night when the Academy opened its sea-
son with THE Volunteer Parson." which
deals with the life of an unfroclSed min
lister Of the gospel. Through the machi-
nations of his wife Rev. Reginald VAN
Dyke Wallace has been brought to the
lowest depths of degradation. Despite
his condition, however, he still has the
desire to help the needy. and this has
won for him the title OF ''the volunteer
parson.' The first act shows a scene in
a town in Maine. where the parson dis
covers that his wife is trying to lure
young boy from his betrothed. The vam-
pire appears to have him entirely in her
power. and, despite repeated warnings.
the boy runs away with her to New
York, where they are followed by his
sweetheart. Upon becoming disilusion-
ed the boy tires of the vampire and re-
turns to his Maine home to marry the
girl who has remained true to him. Tie
ceremony is about to be performed when
the preachers wife appears and shoots
the minister. Her husband. the volunteer
parson, leaps over the form of the pros
makes the lovers man and wife.
The part of the volunteer parson is
sympathetically played by Frank Me-
Mum. Miss Edith Totten, author of the
play. portrays satisfactorily the fascinat-
ing wrecker of mems lives, the parson 8

DANBURY HATTERSCASE,
YEARS OLD, IS RESUMED
Plaintiffs Seek to Recover
Damages as Result of Boy
colt by Labor.

HARTFORD. Conn. August 2o.-The
Danbury Hatters' case, first brought be-
fore the court nine years ago this month.
went to retrial today before Judge j. L.
Martin OF Brattleboro. VT, in the United
States court.
The case is docketed as that of D. E.
Loewe and others, who are hatmakers
in DanbLry, against Martin Lawlor and
others. who are members of the United
Hatters of America.
In brief. the plaintiffs seek 20 recover
damages alleged to have been sustained
by an alleged boycott by organized labor
against the product of their factories. In
the early stage Of the suit there were
DO defendants. but as time passed on
the number decreased to 100, death hav-
ing removed many names from the list
Action Under Trust Law.
The action was brought under the Sher-
man antitrust law. and when the plain
tiffs secured a verdict it was trebled and
the amount set at $4,000 as punitive
damages
On appeal to the United States Supreme
Court. a reversal of the verdict and an or
der for new trial were obtained. Emil
nent legal talent appears each side,
some of the attorneys having been in the
case from its inception.

That the unrest and political upheavals

who is in charge of a hospital in Yeung
Kong, which is about 30 miles south of
Canton. He graphically relates his own
experiences in the recent troubles. He
says:
To-day has been another bloody day in
the history of this place. For some time
the locally recruited soldiery has been
suspected of armed robbery The month
" pay has not been forthcoming and the
local men began To collect their money
wherever they could find valuables- At
last the whole body. encamped in boat
on the river west of the city. Business
was at standstiil gates We're shut and
streets closed. This state of things con-
tinued for nearly a week, when about
/ 600 soldiers were sent down from Can
ton to relieve the situation. Upon their
arrival the local disaffected soldiers mu-
tinted and took to the hills. After few
days the colonel of the regiment issued
orders for the mutinous men To return
and give up their arms under penalty of
being captured as robbers wherever
found.
