At THE GRAND.
Keeps House," Will Appear Next
Thursday Night.

William H. Crane is to be one of the
early attractions at the Grand theater,
as he is booked to appear here for
Thursday, March ~.
For this visit Mr.. Crane is bringing
his latest comedy success "The Sen
ator Keeps House." 1t is play in
four acts by Martha Morton, with
scenes and incidents laid in Wash
ington, D. c., at the present time.
The principal character in the story
is Senator Larkin, a member Of the
upper house of Congress from the
Northwest. Mr.. Crane has been heard
from before as Senator, and his re-
turn to that famous legislative body
will suggest pleasurable thoughts to
everyone who recalls the great
achievement in the past.
The play is spoken of as a fitting
vehicle for Mr.. Crane and the char
acter he portrays is the loving and ap.
polling sort with which you immediat-
uished actor. Its activities are center.
ed in the home of Senator Larkin and
he is buisily occupied in trying to
straighten out his tangled affairs fol-
lowing the dissertation of all his do
nestle servants. With Washington
as a frame for this, public matters
creep into the story easily. There is
a land claim which a lot of schemers
are trying to get through Congress.
They hope to induce the Senator to
report it favorably from his commit
tee. The method they follow involves
the Senator's household and the lead
ing characters found there. Mr. Crane
in the dominant role, is called upon
to work matters out to their happy
conclusion. In doing this he follows
the trend and appeal of the theme and
infuses the character with those dis
tinct attributes which have served to
put him in his splendid position on
our stage.
Mr.. Joseph Brooks, who directs the
Crane tour, will send the same pro-
duction here that was utilized for Mr..
Cranes happy engagement of over
four months at the Garrick Theatre,
New York City, last season. He will
also have the support of his original
company as the cast will include
Mabel Bert Zeffie Tilbury, Lorraine
Frost, Marion Kerby, Jack Devereaux,
Harry HARDWOOD, Raymond Walburn,
Charles Riegel, Bud Woodthorpe and
others.

ALARMS; SLIGHT FIRES

The fire department was called out
three times last evening within two
hours, each alarm being slight fires.
At $50 an overheated furnace at the
home of City Treasurer Roy c. Sar-
gent, $40 North Broadway, was the
cause, and practically no damage,
barring the scare to the Sargent fam
lily, was the result.
At $3.50 an alarm was sent in from
the home of Ed. Cheeseborough, 1901
Cherry street, where a mattress in
the basement created smoke. and
consequent alarm. An hour later, at
the same place, defective electric
wire called the department back, but
all three alarms resulted in but nomi-
nal damages.

" FOR OLD YALE "
A Typical College Play, In
Guiding a Genuine
Trach Meet
" FOR OLD YALE "

Tonight the Senior Glass of the
Aberdeen high school will present
For Old Yale" This play is ty-
pical college play, it shows the cam
pus life before college track meet,
when one of the fellows on the team
apparently turns traitor. This man,
Carson, has been shaken up by
quarrel with his sweetheart and seems
unfit for the race. Every one be-
comes down on him. Then the race
in the third act This is the most ex-
citing part of the play. Here Carson
wins three events and breaks one
record. And when at the last minute
the captain of the team sprains his
ankle he runs for him and thus wins
fourth event.
He has now proven himself the fine
athlete he is and all the fellows are
thoroughly ashamed of their misjudg-
ment of him. So in the last act they
elect him captain of the team for the
following year.
The leading parts of the play are
well filled by Raymond McKenna, as
Carson; George Rafferty,, as Walker,
the Captain; Elizabeth Morgan, as
Helen Beckwith, and Olivetta Faux
ner as Alice Fairchild The comedy
is supplied by Campbell, Ludlow, and
Given Hardy. The two young men
they have a strenuous time. The
play, for an amateur production, is
really good and should be we'll pa
tronized.
