There are four acts set on a minia-

who is accused Of stealing picture post
cards, finally establishes her inno-
cence by finding Coney Island In the
high silk hat of the black mustached
villain and everything Is as sunshiny
as when 1t started. The heroine Is
applauded and the villain Is Kissed

Probably the most enjoyable part
OF the bill to the greater part Of the
audience Is the entertaining Of Ryan

WARRINGTON.

Mitchell Harris, new leading man
OF the Washington theater. made his
initial appearance Monday night In
Bachelors and Benedicts, drama
by Jackson b. Haag. neither better
nor worse than the general run OF
modern plays built around matri-
mony.
The plot depends on the conven-
tional triangle Of the husband. the
Jealous wife, and the. "other wo-
man." with the difference that In
this case the third party Is not an
adventures, but a unfortunate girl
whom the husband has befriended
from entirely philanthropic mo-
tives.
The introduction OF several bach
elor friends of the husband gives
opportunity for - great deal OF dis
! cussion of the faYr sex, which fol-
lows the usual line OF thought laid
down for stage bachelors who read
Mietchke.
Mr.. Harris. although his part as
the husband offered but limited pos
sibilities. created distinctly favor
able impression. In the two strong
scenes of the play. the parting from
the wife, and the reconciliation after
both have learned the lesson that no
marriage can be happy while both
parties are determined to rule. he
showed marked dramatic ability.
Miss Julie Herne, who Is retained
as leading woman. appeared to
marked advantage as the wife. Her
part included several emotional
scenes calling for high degree OF
ability to make them effective, and
In each instance Miss Herne rose to
the occasion splendidly.
Harriet Worthington. another new
member of the Washington cast. sue
cessfully impersonated a sophisti-
Gated widow, and Miss Sue Macma-
many. In the part Of Annie. the un-
fortunate girl, although on the stage
less than 10 minutes, drew rounds
'of applause by her superb handling
of the part.
Marie Louise Benton was fasci-
mating mother-in-law. and Eva VIM
cent as Mrs. Cotton. a janitress. was
responsible for the only bit OF real
comedy in the piece.
Charles Carver. former leading
man, as one Of the bachelors, made
his usual good impression.

FORMER SIMPSON COUNTY
MANS ADMIRABLE RECORD.
Rice Of Or. c. L. Barnes From Farm 10
Professional Life.

Jackson, Miss.--From the rural dis
tricts back on his fathers farm In
Simpson county in this state DR.. O. L.
Barnes has become one Of the most
successful dentists In this section. He
was born at Dlo In 1884. He received
the rudiments of his early education in
the public schools and then worked
upon his fathers farm until he was
twenty-one.
In order to at himself for q life OF
greater usefulness young Barnes en-
tered the Alcorn Agricultural and Me-
chanical college. He paid for his tut
tion and board in labor. His adapta-
bility for agricultural pursuits soon at
tracted the attention Of the faculty,
and he was made foreman of the agri-
cultural department, which position he
held until his graduation from the col
lege course.
At the opening Of the University Of
West Tennessee In the fall Of 1908
among the first students to matriculate
was @. L. Barnes in the department Of
dentistry, from which he graduated
with honors. He subsequently went
before the Mississippi board for exam
nation to be licensed to practice dem
tistry. ...,..A. .s..zs.s~ .....M
The questions were long. difficult and
many. but young Barnes had prepared
for all of that, and taking the examina-
tion was to him like sitting down to
good, we'll prepared dinner. There
were twenty-three to enter the exam
ination, and Barnes stood second,
white man standing first. the examiner
declaring that 1t would never do for a
colored man to stand first.
DR.. Barnes has an Office In building
owned by members Of his race and en-
ploys a competent young girl to look
after the various details. She is po-
lite and courteous to his patrons, thus
securing q satisfied clientele.
