THE FRAIL LIFEBOAT.

"We'll be up with the milk in the
morning" sounded hippant in connection
with one of the greatest sea disasters
till one learned that the word milk
means oil in nautical parlance, so the
captain of the oil steamer Narragan-
sett, who used that now famous mes
sage, merely was giving assurance OF
his purpose in customary language OF
the sea. And, by the way, the "milk"
proved its worth as an agency to calm
the ruffled sea, although it is probable
that the subsistence of the storm had
more to do with the quoting of the
waves than any artificial efforts put
forth by puny man. But the two to-
gether worked to the end that the sur
vivors on board the steamer might be
able to leave the ship.
However safety at sea--real safety
is still dream, although brought nearer
to realization by the discovery of the
wireless method of communication. But
the IS. 0. S" signal might summons all
the ships within radious of 500 miles
and yet the rescuers would not be able
to save imperiled people on board
doomed ship if the waves were running
is high as they were when the steamers
first responded to the Volturno's call.
The next thing, therefore, in order to
secure that safety at sea is to provide
lifeboats which can be launched in the
widest storm without being capsized or
without being smashed against the sides
of the steamer from which the launch
ing takes place. That constitutes the
next problem, and big problem it is,
too.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
"Peg o. My Heart" at Barre Opera
House Thursday.

peg, O. My Heart, J. Hartley Man
mers' successful comedy, will be presented
in this city at the opera house Thursday,
Oct 10th, under the direction OF Oliver
Morosco. This play has proved to be
one Of the most popular of recent years.
| There are very few dramatic offerings
nowadays that can boast of years con-
itinuous run on the Gay White Way"
and peg o My Heart" is one Of these.
The author had a hard time trying to
convince producing managers that it
was really a good play, and it was left
to Mr. Moroseo to prove that he had the
courage of his convictions, that a play
can be free from moral problems and
discussions of either capital and labor
or sexual sin and still be good play;
and it proved that this play had the
breath Of relief for which audiences
everywhere had long been waiting. 1t
is hrimful of clever wit and humor, and
comic situations, and it is not without
an abundance of heart interest.
The scenes are laid in provincial
town in England where resides an arts
tic family consisting of widow, her
son and daughter. They have met with
reverses and are at their wits end as to
how to obtain money with which TO
maintain the household and other ex-
penses. The lady's wealthy brother has
died and believing his sister to be
amply blessed with worldly goods, he
leaves his fortune to the child of
another sister on whom the family have
turned their backs when she married
ne'er-do-well Irishman and went to
America.
A certain yearly sum is provided for
the education of the girl, and the aris-
tocratic relatives decide to undertake |
her bringing up and accept the yearly |
allowance. When Peg arrives with her
dog, Michael the family is much shocked
by her appearance and manners, and she.
i'm turn. does not take kindly to their |
mode OF living. Her unfamilarity with |
the customs Of the smart set, and her
curious antics and ready Irish wit bring
about a succession of humorous eompli- |
cations throughout the play, Peg, of

That Charles A. Prouty has the ability
to undertake the work deyolving upon
the director of the bureau OF physical
valuation for the interstate commerce
commission goes without saying; and no
