CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE
PHILADELPHIA

THIS week the Orpheum Players at the
Chestnut Street Theatre will appear
/ in Sardou's famous comedy "Divor-
cons" This comedy is from the
French and the title can best be translated
as divorce U.s." The play made such a
tremendous hit abroad under its original
title that it has always been done in this
country under the same name. 1t is
pronounced as though spelled 'divorson. y
with the accent on the last syllable.
The story of ''Divorcons" is a delight
full comedy of a husband, wife and a
lover. The wife feels she is neglected and
encourages the attentions of her lover.
The husband discovers the intrigue and
instead of raising row he calmly sug-
gests to her that they get a divorce so
that she can marry her lover This is not
at all what the young lady wants for she
really loves her husband, but he adroitly
manages to take her to supper without
the knowing of her lover, and in the ia
NOUS restaurant scene, he wins back her
love.
''Divorcons" was done in Paris by Bern
hardt, in this country by Mrs. Fiske and
has just been revived this spring in New
York by Grace George. 1t was received
with unbounded enthusiasm in New York.
and its production by the Orpheum Play
ers will undoubtedly make a great hit in
Philadelphia. Miss George will use the
play on tour the next season and will
probably present it in Philadelphia at
high prices.
Miss Gertrude Dallas will appear in the
role of Cyprienne, the young wife of
"Divorcons." The role is especially suited
to her talents and she can be expected to
give one OF the best performances of her
career. The role of the husband, Henri
des Prunelles, will be assumed by Edward
E. Horton, who made such hit as Paul
in "Three Weeks" This will be Mr..
Horizons second big opportunity of the
summer season and his many admirers in
Philadelphia will no doubt turn out in
force to see this promising young actor
again play a leading role with the Or
pheum Company. George LeGuere will
have one of his biggest roles also, as he
will be cast for the part of Adhamar, the
young cousin and lover who tries to win
Cyprienne. This is magnificent comedy
art in which Mr.. LeGuere's talents will
be seen to advantage. The rest of the
company will appear in the cast. Flor
ence Roberts will be seen to advantage in
a character role. Constance Hyatt and
Cyrus Wood will be two amusing servants
who mimic their masters, and Mr. Winter
will make one of his rare appearances in
the role of Clavignac, married man who
has learned new way to avoid the an
noyances his wife tries to heap upon him

PRESIDENT WILSON'S Gettysburg ad-
dress. although the speech of scholar, a
man who has had all the advantages of
the highest university training, does not
compare with the Gettysburg address of
Honest Abe," the uncouth, unframed
rail splitter, the self-taught son of the
common people, whom he conceived as
being loved of God for God made SO many
of them.
Lincoln needed no collegiate education
to interpret the thoughts, the emotions,
the steadfast faith of the American people.
He spoke their language. they understood
him. He was to the sons of the North
Father Abraham" at his command they
poured out their life blood In torrents,
that the Union should be preserved.
The accident Of heredity and birth made
Woodrow Wilson Southerner. Collegi-
ate training and years of practice with
the pen made him master of the English
language. Fortuitous circumstances and
his own ambitious striyings made him
President. But he has failed to win the
affections of his fellow countrymen. as
Lincoln did, nor will he ever be able to do
10. He speaks language that is at once
polished and masterful, but it is not the
language of Observation-Disclosures of the
common people.
Those words which the Great Enamel
pator scribbled with the stub of pencil
on the back of an envelope while on his
way at Gettysburg and delivered at the
dedication Of the National Cemetery,
nearly half a century ago, will live as
masterpiece to English diction, as mes
sage pregnant with the Hottest patriotism.
long after President Thomas Woodrow
Wilson's Gettysburg speech of July 4
will be lost to view In the great mass of
inconsequential utterances of Executives
who have failed to measure up to the
Lincoln standard-CamdenP Post eseqrGur,

George Bishop, civil war veteran, aged
70 years, residing at Bridgeboro, had
made all preparations to attend the re-
union at Gettysburg last week. He
had cashed his last pension check and hid
the money In his bedroom, to keep 1t for
his expenses on the trip. Early Monday
morning the old soldier was awakened by
smoke in his bedroom. He barely managed
to escape from the house, carrying his
wife. The house was destroyed and the
money went. too. The Gettysburg trip
was declared off.

GOVERNOR FIELDER Ia having smooth
sailing now, but before his campaign is at
an end he will be called upon to explain
why he SO steadfastly stood by Fitz-
herbert, who was found guilty of conduct
unbecoming senator. Senator Fielder
refused to vote to unseat Fitzherbert, but
urged him to resign. This he didn't do,
and President of the Senate Fielder ap-
pointed him to several important COM
mittees at the opening of the legislative
session last winter.
Perhaps, however, Governor Fielder
will follow the example set by Governor
Wilson, and keep his mouth shut on the
subject. 1t Is recalled that, when the
Fitzherbert case was in the eye of the
public, Governor Wilson said ne would
tell the people just where he stood in
relation to Fitzherbert, but he didn't keep
his promise. There is little doubt that
Fitzherbert will be a candidate for re-
election, and he will, no doubt, depend
more or less upon the Fielder strength to
pull him through. Trenton State Gazette.

SATURDAYS GAMES.
Rain interfered with many of Saturdays
contests. The Mount Holly team went to
Philadelphia to play Strawbridge & Cloth
Ter on the grounds of the latter. At the
end Of the fourth inning after two Mount
Holly men had been retired rain fell and
that ended the game. Up to that time
but one of the latter side had made hit,
Jack Gillian, who was on his old station
at first, getting q good crack at the ball.
The opposing side touched Cain up for
four hits and scored four runs in the first
inning and two runs In the third, so per-
haps 1t was just as well that rain stopped
all further efforts.
Hainesport went to New Egypt and
tried to beat the team at that place, but
was not successful. as 1t only scored two
runs. while New Egypt got five. Berner
pitched his usual good game and allowed
the visitors but three hits.

ton about Buckhead. A comparison
IF prices will serve to illustrate
When the Fulton County Almshouse
property was put up at auction two
or three years ago, lots along Pied
mont Road near Roswell Road
brought as little as SO and "a a front
foot, and some inside" acreage
brought a low as SIS and 500. Now
these same lots are in the market at
$50 to $40 a foot, and the owners are
not very anxious to sell; and the
acreage is held at about $780, Lors
which are now 500 a foot on Peach
tree in the neighborhood Of Mrs Car
RE L'Engle's and Colonel Walter
Andrews homes changed hands about
a year ago at $40, a clear advance Of
$50 a foot. A lot opposite James
r. Gray's country home south Of
Buckhead was recently offered at 1872
a foot. and the price of SOS a foot has
been hung up at Buckhead for bust
ness lots. In fact, lots as far north
as Piedmont Avenue have brought $50
and So a foot, and the prices prom
Use to ascend steadily.
PeaChtree values have never failed
to rise. One or two lots in the
Brookwood section have been offered
at 5000 a foot, but they are few and
far between. Ten years ago a man
with $4,000 cash could have bought
enough land at Brookwood to have
made him independent to-day. Some
did. and they have had no cause to
worry.
