ted by Josef Dumont. Frenchman, who
had taken up the business of fishing on
the coast of Gloucester, Mass. The vic
tim is the brother of Rosa Creighton, Tom
Bartlett's sweetheart. Tom is rebuked
by his sweetheart for his wild habits and
in the quarrel that ensues the engagement
is broken
In the meantime his brother. the Rev
John j. Bartlett, accepts call to the
parish church at Gloucester. Dumont
comes to the priest and confesses his
crime He promises to confess publicly
If the crime is laid on amy one else but
later when Tom Bartlett is accused of
the murder he refuses TO confess and
holds the priest to the secrecy of the
confession.
Great interest is manifested in the strug-
giles OF the priest not to tell what he
knows and thus clear his brother who is
convicted and condemned to die. On the
day set for the execution Dumont con-
fesses to the governor and Bartlett is
cleared
Miss Jape Stokes as Rose Creighton is
extremely clever in the part. She has d
delightful personality and lends much to
the play by her manner OF reading the
lines and acting them. Richard Sterling
handles the difficult part of the priest
with artistic skill and infuses into the
part all that it calls for. One of the
best characters in the play is Boyd Tur-
ner as the French Canadian, his dialect
is good and his manipulation of the emo
tional scenes is excellent.
William Sheehan plays the part of
Michael Grogan, the Irish sexton, the
comedy part is an excellent style and
creates many laughs by his droll wit
ticisms. The other parts are suitably
played. The company is we'll balanced

Held as Witnesses

Tuscaloosa, September 29.-The three
men who have been in jail since Fri
day night in connection with the hold
up of the Alabama Great Southern pas
senger train are being detained pri-
marily as witnesses, it is claimed by
the officers. because of their admission
that they saw the actual robbery from
the top of the mail and express cars.
Today the three men We're subjected
to rigid and lengthy examinations, but
the officers. railroad and express com =
pany detectives, declined to say if'they
gained additional information. The men
stoutly deny completely in the robbery.
The express company has issued a
circular offering $1,000 reward for the
robbers, setting forth that the loss
to the company amounted to $500 in
cash and several pieces of jewelry.
Notwithstanding this circular of the
express company's losses, 1t is believed
the robbers secured between $4,000 and
10000.
