DODDRIDCE LITERARY SOCIETY
PLAYS "DOLL HOUSE" BY BSEN

fcing Temperament Of his little wife,
Nora.
Mr.. Gates could not be mistaken for
other than the villain in the play, with
his sneers, his sarcasm and his relent-
less will.
Mr.. Bertch showed no little talent
In the study Of his role. The pathos
he brought into the play, picturing SO
clearly the desolate' lot of a lonely
doctor, hopelessly in love with Nora,
and dying from chronic disease,
must not be passed without comment.
Miss Burgess, in her quiet, unas-
Stunning manner, at once won the ad-
miration and sympathy Of the audi.
ence, as she portrayed the lonely life
OF widow who had married wealth
for the sake of her mother and broth
ers. and rejected the true love, Nils
Gragstad had offered her.
The children added a cheerful re-
lief to the serious tone of the play,
with their sunsine, artless game Of
hide and seek. Miss Daley was most
motherly in her care Of them and at
forded the audience no little amuse-
ment with her Irish brogue. Miss
Spahr and Mr.. Greene were prompt,
business like and ready for service at
the proper time.
Although the cast worked long and
faithfully on the play, none of them
spent any more time and energy than
Miss Houseworth. the coach. The So
ciety has her to thank for the wonder
full success of the play.
Miss Cora Gates is president OF the
society ... .~... .

South Norwalk. Sept. 22-John Me Cormack. the tenor, rescued Mario <Korbel a sculptor, from drowning, yesterday afternoon, when the Aphro- dite. the yacht of Richard Le Gall Hene, the writer, capsized in a. squall'
 The Aphrodite was some distance from shore when the squalT struck her and she went over. Among the boats that put out to the assistance of those on board was the motor boat Gwen, belonging. to MT. Mccormack. As soon as s1lis boat was alongside the capsized Aphrodite' the singer, who learned to swim this summer, dived into the rough water at the risk of being dashed against the yacht. When he reached KorbeI the sculptor was sinking and he was got into the mo tor boat just in time. Edwin Schnei- der, McCormacks piano acco1npanist, who was one of the party aboard the Aphrodite. was also rescued by the singer and others and was taken to shore in the motor boat.
 Both MT. Mccormack and MT. Kor- bel are members of the summer colony at Tokeneke \ Since learning to swim, after having joined the To- keneke club, the singer has been most enthusiastic over his newly acqufFNd accomplishment and has developed a powerful stroke.

YOUNG BRIDEGROOM STILL LACKS CASH
 TO CLAIM HIS WIFE

George Bier. aged IS, whose girl wife was taken from him in Hoboken, N. J., has still two weeks to make good his promise to return with a job and s25 in his pocket, but as yet he has not the job. nor the $25, Bier is living in Bridgeport and works Sat urdays at the Bridgeport Public Mar ket. Bier objects to the story which Bridgeport newspapers printed calling him a janitor of the city hall in Hobo ken. As matter of fact the janitor there gets $1,2oo per year whereas Bier who says he was clerk in the water office in the city hall earned but S10 a week.
 Bier married a i6 year old girl, his sweetheart, in his home town but her parents decided that a $1O a week in come was not sufficient to support a man anu his wife properly So they took their daughter home and told Bier he wasn't in a position to sup port her. Bier replied by saying that he would go into a-strange town, with only s1 in his pocket, get a better job and return with $25 in his pocket. This is what Bier is trying to do in Bridgeport. So far he hasn't t the job or the $25 but he is not dis couraged for he has two weeks more to make good.

WALSH AND M'CALL
 PARTY CHOICES FOR
 BAY STATE TICKETS

A. B. Cook, Boston. 24792; E. c. R. Bagley, Boston, '14,673; s. w. George, HaverhiH, 10,273.
 In the contest for Democratic nor1f- nee for attorney general, J. J. Dona- hue, Medford, apparently was success full by a substantial majority over Harold Williams, Jr., Brookline.
 Despite the unwie1dy ballot and the intricacies of new primary laws, com paratively few ballots were rejected because of improper marking and the total vote for both Republican and Democratic candidates for governor was more than 40 per cent. larger than that shown at the primary last year. Politicians ascribed this to the yigor- ous campaign on the part of the can didates and the small number of minor contests. Even a smart rainstorm failed to dahpen the political ardor of the voters.
 There was no contest in the Progress sive party for governor and Nelson B, Clark, of Beverly, will be officially rec ognized the opponent of Goverror Walsh and MT. Mccall at the state election in November.

Boston. Sept. 22.-A revision of the complete vote of the state in yester- days primaries made today somewhat increased the pluraIities of the nomi- nees. Governor Walsh was renoni- mated for a third term by the Demo- crats and former Congressman Mccall was chosen as his Republican oppo- nent. The total vote of the state for the principal candidates was as for lows:
 Republican governor. Samuel w. Mccall. Winchester. 65,os5;. Grafton D. Cushing. Boston, 59.344;. Eugene N. Foss, Boston, 1o,2o4; Lieut.. Governor Guy A. Ham,< Milton, 4s,830.

 These rules long governed what was called the New York game. although several notifications were made, and the New England clubs had rules which differed somewhat from, the pioneer code. Tn the early days of baseball the number of players varied from 10 to IA. The catcher was per mitted one or two assistants. The bases were wooden stakes. There were usually three umpires in match games, one from each club and one from a neutral club.

Fandom Should Celebrate
 Tomorrow SeVentieth
 Birthday of Baseball

There should be a general celebra- ton among the fans tomorrow, for this Sept, 23rd will commemorate the seventieth anniversary of the adop- tion of the first code of rules to govs ern the great mertcan pastfme. While the first baseball contest was played in Hoboken in 1846. under these rules, the code itself was promulgated by the Knickerbocker club of New Yor}1 on Cept. 23, 1846, and it may thus be said that baseball a regular game attains the ee-score-and-ten mark today. These rules will seem very funny to the present crop of fans. Of 1ating to the number of tsouts" before a team shall take the field. has sur vived to the present day.

 OF RING BATTLES

1S95-Jack Skelly and Johnny Cor man fought eight-round draw at Coney Island. "GentIeman Jack and German will be remembered by the old time fans as two of the cleverest of the featherweights, although neither ever attained championship honors. Skelly and German fought three times. In the first session be- tween the two little fellows the de- cision was awarded to German, a1- though Jack had all the best of it. and the referee~Was lucky to escape the clutches of Jacks maddened sup porters. That was before S1elly fought George Dixon for the feath erweight title in New Orleans in which bout "Gentlenan Jack was knocked out in the eighth round. In 1894 Skelly and German fought again for the white featnerweight cham pnonship, and Skelly won in six rounds. The third and last meeting between the pair was about as ter rife a contest as was ever witnessed between featherweights, but neither had any marked advantage.
