UNDER SOUTHERN SKIES At Davis Theatre Tonight-MiIlions 0 People Have Laughed and Cried a This Grand Old Play.

Tonight the Myrk1e- Harder company will give a special production of that grand play, Under Southern Skies. This play is something different from anything this company has ever at tempted, as it is costume production, and each member has made arrange mcnts with MT Miller, the costu1ner in Philadelphia, and not only will the play be mounted in proper southern atmosphere, but the characters will fit the scenes. The play itself is one of those good, wholesome, before the war" pieces that will live forever, as it takes us all back to the old games, such as Halloween superstition that existed at that time.
 The costumes are of special interest, as they are of those old fashioned kind and with the southern scenery draws minds Of old fashioned tintypes and cameo.
 This celebrated play of the old south has made a hit in every large city in which it has been in transcontinenta1 tours and occupies with the American public a distinctive position all its own.
 Its scenes, which are amidst the magnolias and live oaks of the far south, make the play so real that when you shut your eyes you can see the cotton fields and hear the strumming of the banjo.
 This great play has absorbed all the tradition and folk lore of her native south, moving her hearers from tears to laughter, then back to mirth again.
 Each play presented by the Myrkle- Harder company is a distinct novelty and away from anything ever attempt ed at popular prices.

BELIEVES MISS COOK
 STUDIED TOO HARD.
Lois Waterbury Declares it Rediculous to lmpIicate Mayo in Girls Death.

New York, March 5.-Lois Water bury, head of the home Virginius J. Mayo maintained in Brooklyn under the name of James Dudley, said to- day that she had received letter from Lillian Cook written a day or so before Miss Cook disappeared.
 Tt is ridiculous to suppose that MT. Mayo had anything to do with Iil- lians disappearance" said Miss Wa terbury. He was interested in her because of me. I know Lillian as a very dear girl, a girl of a very high type. While she was here I got to know her very well and became very fond of her. Before she left she be- came fully acquainted with the facts of the relationship existing between MT. Mayo and myself. She knew that I wasn't married to him. But she did not leave because she learned of this She left because she was intelligent ambitious, wanted to improve herself and the place as nurse girl wasn't the kind of place for her.
 I've decided that she should go to New Haven to join MT. Mayo's office force. I don't know whether the sug- gestion that she should go there came from MT. Mayo or from me; I don't remember Lillian wrote to me very often. MT. and Mrs. Cook knew that she was very dear to me and knew took an interest in her. I received a letter from her just before she dissa- peared.
 When she had gone away Mir. Ma yo telephoned to me to tell me that she had gone and to find out if she had come to me if I knew anything about her. Of course I didn't, I wish I did
 '1n my opinion Lillian wandered away while temporarily deranged She was studying very hard. She was al- ways studying. She wrote to me the Tuesday before she disappeared to tell me about the examination she was to take the following night at the busi- ness school I am afraid that 1t was all too much for her."
