bert that remarks to any other gentle
man of the House should be mad,
through the chair and Mr.. NeWbert sa
down. Mr.. smith had remained stand
.pr. smiling calmly upon Mr.. NeWbert's
outbreak. When he was allowed t.
continue he stated that the order had
not been introduced in spirit of NAL
ice, but that when the original resolve
had come from the Senate MI NeWbert
had arisen in his place and introduced
an amendment to remove Sherifts Bal
lou and Emerson. AT that time de-
clared M. Smith, he stated in loud
tone Of voice that there was plenty OF
evidence against these men and read
abstracts with reference to non-en-
forcemcnt in their counties" Mr.. Smith
believed that, with all Mr.. NeW5ert S
professions OF sincerity, he would not
demand such action without justifica-
ton, and merely desired that such val
liable informant ton as the Augusta rep
resentative had suggested be turned
over TO the House to be used in the
prosecution.
Rep Dunton of Belfast, contended
that such information ought not to be
given TO the House but should be car
ried to the prosecuting attorney. He
was reminded by Mir. Smith that two
orders had been served upon the Gov
ernor requesting such information on
tne initiative of the Democrats.
Rep. Scates of Westbrook, moved that
the order lie upon the table, and it was
so voted, such motion not being debat-
ahle.

the production all the more enjoyable
is the Introduction Of a number OF
musical specialties, especially In the
second act. The play is different
from any in which the Conness Play

change therefore, is all the more ap-

the comedy in New York. Philadelphia
and other cities, was. accordingly. re-

/ There was not an idle moment from
the time the curtain rose in the first
act until il fell at the close of the
third act The audience was con-
vulsed throughout The situations
we're so numerous and so complicated
that they were highly amusing.
Bernard Thornton was a scream as
Bertie Stewart, the character made
famous by Carter DeTIaven during the
years run Of THE Girl in the Taxi
in New York. The same thing ap.
plies TO Robert Robson, in the role OF
John Stewart, father OF BERTHE. AS
Percy Peters. uncle of BERTHE, Robert
Conness, the leading man. was a pro
nounoed success The trouble that
this trio got into in their midnight
revelry. when each supposed the other
was al home in bed. is the basis of the
production.

man. is Mignon. the girl in the taxi
Although an actress of the highest
class and one who can portray
Shakespearean roles to perfection sh,
gave ar ideal performance as 4
comedienne. II is her ability to dc
things that makes her so genuinely
popular. She entered into the spirit
of the play IN the right sort of way
and, as a result, she aided largely IN
the success Of the comedy. Miss
Laurotte Browne was particularly
good as Mary Peters, the unsophisti-
Gated wife of Percy Peters. Miss
Browne, however is always accept

Margaret NJ. Lewis. as the wife OF
John Stewart was equally entitled 10
praise. Like Mary Peters. she was
also unused 10 the wiles of the world.
