that there - not sufficient time re-

thusiastic Audience.

officer 666," Il mclodramatic farce
from the pen Of Austin McHugh, de-
lighted a capacity audience at the
Calumet theater last evening. The
spectators were in a receptive mood
and the risible situations provoked
by tho difficulties of Onicer Phelan,
about whom the story is woven, kept
up constant laughter. AS a whole. the
story was well portrayed and the many
possible adventures into which a con-
scicntious policeman may be drawn
makes it farce above the ordinary.
The story begins with the return Of
Traverse Gladwin, !, youthful mil.
liouairc, from Europe whose arivcl in
iionaire, from Europe whose arrival in
cognito. GladWin discovers that his
house is about to be burglari2ed and
that "a g,rl, the only one who ever has
appealed To him, is about to elop,
with the intending burglar. Gladwin
cndcavurs to save his property. cspe-
rially h.s valuable PAINTINGS, though
his primary purpose is to save the
good name of the girl To foil the
plot of the burglar, Gladwin secures

but he assists the burglar to escape.
