SHOW JUST GLUED
WOMEN TO SEATS
Two Hundred Wanted to Leave But
Couldn't.

Pottsville, Pa, June 1.-two hun.
dred women who attended the Hippo
drome yesterday were glued to their
seats.
1t was the first presentation this
summer of summer opera, but this had
nothing to do with the fact.
To tell the unvarnished truth the
women became glued to their seats be-
cause the intense heat had melted the
varnish on the chairs on which they
seat.
There were 1000 women In the au-
dience, and when many seemed reluct-
ant to go, after the performance, others
sat down, thinking they had made a
mistake when they thought all was
over. When the truth dawned upon
them they left the Hippodrome and let
200 women remain to struggle as best
they could. A few left pieces of their
dresses in pulling away from the var
nish, while a score are going to try to
hold the varnish company responsible
for the damages they suffered from
