PARK THEATRE

The first two Mondays of the Corse Payton Stock companys engagement have unavoidably been sacrificed to previous bookings at this theatre. But after this week Monday night will he the regular weekly opening time. To- nlorrow's s matinee will witness the first production of s.The Ninety and Nine, ' and it is going to be a jirn-hurnmer. If the screaming ,hissing, madIy-s swaying and wildly speeding locomo-. tive does not lift the audience out of the seats, it will be because the people are tied down. N Nothing in the way of stage realism has ever quite equaled this display of nechanicaI ingenuity. When Tom Si1verton opens the throt- tie and starts on his wild dash through the flame swept forest. every one may be sure that the people of Marlow will be rescued
 MAUD ADAMS HERE TONIGHT The appearance Of Maude Adams in; J M Barrie's Peter Pan, at the Park theater tonight is certain te attract one Of the largest audiences of the season. Many people have been look ing forward with much pleasure to- the engagement of the actress and the interest in it has been very keen During her recent engagement in New York Miss Adams made her fourth re- yival of the play there and it's success was greater than ever. Her tour in. the work previous to the New York engagement was the most successful one that this most successful of ac- tresses hase ever known Peter Pan'' opens in the nursery of the Dar1- ings, where the faithful dog. Mama, is nurse to the Darling children. The second act is laid in the woods. the third shows the cave underground. the fourth is on the deck of the pirate ship and the fifth brings one back. to the nursery, then changes to the forest and the last scene of all shows Peter with his pipes in his little house in the tree tops. The play transports one to the Never, Never. Never Land there to leave the cares and the years behind and to see again the bright, glittering dreams Of childhood There is nothing in all current literature tha make grown-ups children again for a night as does this whimsical, irnag1n- alive play. Miss Adams. portrayal or Peter. the boy who wouldn't grow up, is full of elhsh charm and beauty. Surroundfng the actress is a company made up of prominent professionals.

Heredity and Color aIindn..

Color blindness is always inherit

through the father. There appears to
be no instance in which a colorblind
father has transmitted his defect to

a mother who was a transmitter.

MEXICO, June 25.-Thc fiercest
fighting on both side and unusually
high loss of life to both Federal

night In the capture Of. Zaeatecas by
Cen. Villas forces. 1t required four
days of battle to take the Federal
stronghold of Central Mexico.
The Federals unGer Gen. Barron
defended their positions stubbornly,
but they finally were overcome by
the forces of Gen. Villa and Gen. Ma
terra. The Constitutionalist soldiers
scaled hill after hill and mountain
after mountain, killing andwound-
ing thousands of Federals and suf-
rering heavy losses themselves. 1t
has been impossible to obtain an ac-
curate estimate Of losses on both
sides. The heaps on the mountain
sides and in the city bore testimony
of tho ferocity of the fighting. Gen.
Villa was in the van of the attacking
party. Five members of his staff 40.
'companying him were wounded. The
number of Constituencies Officers
Killed or wounded was unusually
great.
Gen. D. Rodriguez. one of the best
of Villas brigade commanders, was
shot through the throat and Is not
expected to recover.

cases had to advance on hands and
knees. This feat was accomplished
under heavy. machine gun fire.

troops. The point Of advance grad

Villas hands. staf
