Far be ii from the press agent to wish
to advertise the show. Of course, but
since the Globe Theatre is giving spe-
cial matinees to-day and February q
the truth would come out sooner or later
SO it Is reluctantly announced that the
reasons for the extra matinees are Mar

guerite's birthday il to-day and Dor
othy's is February %. which accounts
for the special matinees.
The ST. Claire girls. sisters and per-

At these meetings a suffrage hymn-to
be written by some distinguished poet not

And the parades the Congressional
Union is talking about can march I'D TO

DO you think they will?' she was
asked.
Well said Mrs Mccormick. they
won't be the Unions parades, anyway.
Those parades have been organized by

dav
Mrs Anderson is the daughter OF the
late William II Ebins. whose father
founded the Ebline Brewing Company.
Anderson is connected with an electrical
contracting firm. and is member OF the
eth Regiment and the Larchmont Yacht
Club
They were married IN January. 1912. in
New Rochelle Mrs Anderson left ner
husband eight months later. 1t is the
contention OF the husband that his
mothcr-in-law is responsible for at least
some of his marital troubles and ne has
q siit pending against Mrs. Eblins Tor
$4,000 for alternating his wife from him.
he SAYS that his wifc's mother wants her
to marry French nobeman.
Mrs Anderson thinks tnat one Miss
Lorraine Parker. a model for artists Vh,
draw magazine covers. is the cause Of
the differences between her and her hus-
band. and She has named Miss Parker a-
correspondent
The model made a vivacious witness,
telling the court that she met Anderson
through a Irritation while they were din
ing at adjoining tables at Bustanoby's :.
They were much in each others company
thereafter.
When Edward Scott. attorney for IN
derson cross-examined her, he resented
the apparent Indifference OF the witness
shown in constantly looking away from
him. Mr.. Scott suggested that Miss
Parker look straight at him
The ewes Of the witness may not be
controlled by the court" Justice Whitaker
ruled. Il can control the voice and an
swers OF the witness and her conduct IN
the courtroom, but it is not within :he
power of the court to control the eyes Of
the lady"
Miss Parker told of dining several times
with Anderson and Of their drinking high
balls and wine A letter was introduced
which the witness said Anderson wrote
TO her. in which he said: Every time l

which have been a familiar sight in
musical assemblies for years. we're
gone, and ii was discovered that he had
Shorn himself for safety'S sake.
Though a German, born in Berlin, he
was taken for a Russian spy in the Ger
man capital and had a narorw escape
from a mob which pursued him. For
eleven weeks he was shut up in Berlin,
unable TO send word of his affairs here,
and unable to get any money.
II happened to arrive in Berlin the
day before war was declared" said Mr..
SCHNEIDER Il had spent all of July in
London. but previous to that. ] had
spent Nav and June travelling about in
Russia, and all my luggage was pasted
up with the labels OF hoteis in Moscow,
ST Petersburg, Warsaw, and other
Russian cities. After reaching Berlin,
I could not get letter away for eleven
