"TANTE."


Extremely welcome announcement
is made of the coming to the oliver
tonight of Miss Ethel Barrymore in
'Tante." Locally playgoers are to be
congratulated on the happy cOmb ina-
ton of circumstances that makes
Miss Barrymore's visit possible since
she is appearing in but very few cities
between the termination of her long
run at the Empire theater in New
York and the inauguration of her
engagement at the Blackstone thea
ter, Chicago.
In 'Tante" Miss Barrymore has
achieved without question the most
emphatic success of her career, her
artistic portrayal of the world-Te-
nowned, over-tempermental pianiste
bringing to her a triumph in fitting
succession to her splendid acting ear
lier in 'Mid-channel." "Alice-sit- by
the fire. and THE Witness for the
Defense" G. HaddOn Chambers is re-
sponsible for the play itself. having
made 1t from the novel of the same
name by Anne Douglas Sedgwick
While Mr.. Chambers has followed the
principal incidents recalled by the
readers OF the novel, he has not hest
tated to make the changes in Tante's
character necessary in the transition

play hduaihS OhIdShd, CdIleu 1dHIe

JAMES h. HACkETT.

The Oliver was filled last evening
with a loyal and enthusiastic audience
TO greet James b. Racket IN The
Grain of Dust. Mr.. Hackett an
nounces this as his third successful
season in this play and perhaps he
like others. is willing to forget his
painful experience last season when
he attempted a so-called comedy
based on the prevalent crime plays
Are You a Crook. In the present
play he has an opportunity TO enact
one OF natures nOblemen, a man of
great affairs. one who could and per
haps does conquer worlds. 1t is the
same type as his "Reupert of Henzau"
and his Prisoner of Zenda". only in
modern dress. and Mr.. Hackett acts
the part in the same grandiloquent
manner All he needs Is a sword and
he could lead an army In other words
he overacts ana is stacy and artificial
in many of the strongest scenes in
the play.
1t is partly on account of the won
derfully perfect character that Mr..
Hackett assumes that makes 1t par
ticularly difficult for his leading lady
TO seem consistent. A girl that would
fascinate and subdue mental giant
such as Frederick Norman is pictured
must be endowed with more than or
binary charm. personality and femi-
nine brilliancy. Beatrice Beckley
(Mrs. James X. Hackett) scarcely
measures up TO this standard. Even
with the assistance of the wigmaker,
whose services have been employed
since last season, it is difficult for her
to seem consistent in a wonderfully
trying part. A stilted. affected man
ner of speaking does not assist in the
illusion. Roland Blackstone, an eX-
perienced Shakespearian actor scored
the hit of the evening in a jolly part
and shared the honOrs of the curtain
call which Mr.. Hackett very gracious
ly permitted. Jane Burby. as a sOci-
ETY. woman; Redfeld Clarke as Bur
rOughs and Olaf Vide in a Swedish
butler bit were most capable in the
support. The play is one of those
highly colored popular magazine
stories, pleasing for the moment but
of little lasting worth and it hasn't
even the saving grace of a tag like
one of George Cohan's productions
which candidly admits ii never could
have happened except in a play.

BRILLIANT spy
ON LIEUT.. MORS

London, Nov. u. 440 A. M.-The
Chonicle today describes the nature of
the offense of Lieutenant Mors, a Ger
man officer, who recently was condemned
to Imprisonment for life for espionage at
Alexandria, Egypt.
Mors was despatched to Egypt FIVE
years ago and succeeded in being ap-
pointed a lieutenant in the Egyptian
gendarmeries. His real mission accord
ing to the Chronicle, was to foment a
local rebellion among the various nation
alist princes and to get them to assist
him. Then when war broke out he was
recalled to Germany, and-was sent back
to Egypt in a fortnight as medically IN
fit for military service, but actually to
blow up steamship in the Suez canal
so as to block the passage of reinforce
ments from India and Australia. Major
General Sir John Maxwell, commander
of the British forces in Egypt, heard or
the plot and had Mors arrested. In his
fez We're splendid maps of the Suez ca
nal and instructions how to sink vessels
there. Two dynamite bombs were found
in his lodgings.
At his trial, according to the Chronic
Gle. Mors confessed that he received $780,
900 for the work entrusted to him. He
gave a list of his associates and they
have been arrested.

BELCIANS TO BE
SENT into maine

Portland. Me-, Nov. 12.-According to
information given out by Inspector
Timothy Elliott of the immigration
department in charge of the district
of Maine, it is evident that many hum
dreds of refugees from Europe will
settle upon farms in Maine.
Mr.. Elliott announced that as re-
suit of cooperation by the immigra-
ton department, the department of
agriculture and the federal education
al department, plans have been made
to find employment for all aliens COM
ing to this country in the rural sec
tons.
This fact was made known as the
result of official information from
Washington. 1t is the intention to re-
lieve the congestion in the big CEN
tiers where there has been an excess
of foreign population and hundreds
have been forced to seek aid from mu-
With many thousands coming from
Europe, it has been found necessary
to make some plans to care for them.
For the time being, therefore, the i'm
migration officials in Portland will
serve as an employment bureau. 1t is
estimated that many hundreds of such
refugees coming to Portland will ind
homes on Maine farms.

Who, Me-, has been discovered here.

Milo, Me-, has been discovered here.
Robert Stewart of this place. we'll
known farmer and one of our prominent
citizens. was in Milo on that date on
business. He remained at a hotel over
night and during the evening, as is the
custom, the party of travellers and others
around the office became acquainted, he
meeting both Preece and Dunn.
The conversation between these two
men during the evening and the next
morning convinced Stewart that they
were then meeting for the first time.
! Mr. Stewart ehatted with them at con-
siderable length and he was taken out to
the place where the dog that has been
mentioned was with the team. He says
that the arrangement was made in the
evening for Dunn to continue his journey
wherever it might be, the next morning
as far as West Paris with Preece The
talk While this arrangement was being
made also convinced Mr.. Stewart that
the two men were strangers. Anyway.
the two started out together the next
morning, Wednesday, in the team, the
dog accompanying them.
The next he heard of them was the re-
meeting at Milo. The names were all
right and Preece was promptly identified.
The description given the man Dunn fit
ted exactly the man who made Freezes
acquaintance at Milo and Mr.. Stewart is
sure that it is the same.
Mr.. Stewart is positive that he could
Identify the fellow, should he meet him
again, having seen him SO much during
the stay at the hotel
People here are noting the fact
although Mr.. Stewart has nothing to say
on the subject-that a man so inclined,
had fine opportunity during the long
ride from Milo to West Paris TO learn
much about another man with whom he
had made a sudden but apparently two
sided friendship. find out about his money
aud valuables and easily, with the arms
at hand. make way with both the friend s
valuables and his life. They are watch
ing closely the developments and have
no doubt but what Mr.. Stewards state
ment will have considerable bearing on
the case.

New York, Nov. 12,-Amid the ruin
wrought by a powerful bomb explod-
ed last night at the entrance to the
Bronx county's new 100000 court
house. detectives found today what
they consider strong evidence that the
outrage was perpetrated by Anarchists
who had in mind the Haymarket riots
at Chicago nearly % years ago.
Detectives who had believed that
the explosion had been prompted by
vengeance upon County Judge Louis
d. Gibbs, for heavy sentences imposed
recently by him on seven traftickers
in women, turned from the theory to
follow the fresh clue.
Scattered among the fragments OF
metal Clipped from the door casing
and cornices of the courthouse detec-
tfves found the tatters of pamphlet
printed in Spanish and headed, Los
Mortieres de Chicago" (The Martyrs
of Chicago. The fragments so far as
they could be pieced together, pur-
ported to tell the story of the Anar-
chists whose bomb killed several Chi
cago policemen.

COURTHOUSE RESULT ANARCHISTS
ATTEMPT REPEAT CHICAGO AFFAIR

rough wood cut showing the An
archists swinging from gallows was
decipherable among the fragments. Al
so there were incendiary statements
concerning the duty of Anarchists to
avenge the Martyrs
In the light of the new development
detectives sought the whereabouts OF q
man seen by court attendants in the
main corridor of the courthouse yester-
day afternoon. The man who was de-
scribed as tall and well dressed, entered
the main corridor with a manila-wrap-
ped package under his arm. After half
an hour in the building he departed with
out speaking to anyone.
Close investigation today developed the
fact that there was only one bomb, i'm
stead of the two at first reported. and
that it was set beside one of the two
bronze columns at the portico of the
courthouse's main entrance. So power
full was the missile that the force of
the explosion blew in the front of the
office of the city marshal across plaza
from the courthouse.

INSPECTORS STILL
SEARCH IN MAINE
FOR SECRET WIRELESS

Portland, Me-, Nov. 12.-Government
inspectors are said to be on searching
tours for suspicious wireless stations
in. Maine and in Florida. While but
little is known concerning these two
expeditions, rumors that have been
afoat recently have occasioned some
concern in Washington and it is prob
able that persistent efforts will be
made to locate plants If there are
any.
While there has been persistent
story about a station on the mountain
that rises from the shore of Parlin
Pond plantation, this may prove to be
a blind and on the other hand, the
plant may be found, there. Inyestiga-
ton will cover that territory in few
days and the. success OF failure of the
trip into that region is awaited with
much interest.
Mysterious codes are said to have
been picked up along tht coast, es-
pecially in this State and in Florida.
That was the first intimation that
messages were being flashed through
the air and has led to search being
made for the station from whence they
came.
Two German steamships are intern
ed in the port of Philadelphia much as
the Kronprinzessin Cecilie was at Bar
Harbor for several weeks before her
removal to Boston last week. Govern
ment inspectors have sealed the wire
less rooms on these ships and close
watch is kent to make sure these seals
have not been broken.
One of the most powerful radio sta
tons along the coast is installed in
the Philadelphia navy yard and all
other waves within a radius of 90
miles are intercepted Watch is being
kept for stations that might be set up
by any foreign nation, not necessarily
the Germans alone.

and experienced seamen, members OF the
crew of the German steamer Amerika,
were permitted to enter this country by
the local immigration authorities today
The men had previously refused to leave
the vessel when the steamship company
decided to dispense with their services,
claiming that they signed for a round
trip and that they would remain on the
steamer until returned to Hamburg.
About 400 men have now been admitted
from German steamers interned here and
about as many more are expected.
Many of the men have already gone

kins, testified that Perkins had taken
a narcotic which he said was for head
aches. Other passengers said Perkins
had acted queerly.
Mr.. and Mrs. Human, Mr.. Wright
and Capt ingram were sitting in the
companionway of the Mohawk when
Perkins approached, clad in pajamas
and a raincoat. The captain told him
he must wear more suitable apparel
if he wished to remain.
Perkins Immediately drew a revolt
yer and began firing. Mr.. Human was
struck twice in the abdomen, Capt.
Ingram was hit once and Mr.. Wright

LABOR BACKS up
ENGLISH PROGRAM
OF WAR TO THE END

London, Nov 12-t3.55 p. M)-Ar-
thur Henderson, the Labor leader, up
on the continuation in the House of
Commons today of the debate on the
address in reply to the speech from
the throne, said organized labor felt
that the only course now open was to
go right through with the war until
complete and final success crowned
the Allies efforts.
When the end came, he said, Labor
would use it's powerful influence to-
wards a settlement on the lines of
true nationalist and democracy.
The governments white paper on
the question of allowances for those
dependent upon soldiers obviated the
necessity for him to go further on
that subject, but he still felt that re-
cruits were being improperly treated.
He cited cases where wives. he said,
had been insulted by officers of re-
lief associations.
Mr. Henderson also inquired if the
government was in a position to tell
more about the escape of the former
German cruisers Goeben and Bres-
lau from the British Mediterranean
fleet and whether there existed a
prior arrangement for the sale OF
these cruisers between Germany and
Turkey.
