aThe opening Of the fall season will
see a new theatre on Broadway. IL Will
be called May Twins Theatre and will
be managed solely by the lady whose
reputation as a fair, Fat aud forty
comedienne has been unsurpassed in
this country. Miss Irwin purposes to
form a stock company for the theatre
and run there a series Of plays Of the
farce-comedy order which shall hold
the attention Of the mirth-loving New
York theatregoers almost throughout
the season. Very little travelling will
be done"
The repertory theatre story has al
ways been a good one heresbouts, even
though the theatre itself never mate
rallies. The quotation, for example,
is from "The New York Journal Of

Willie Collier substituted her name for
that of Maude Adams in Nothing but
the Truth" Did you ever love any
other girl?' asks Margaret Brainerd.
yes answers the truthful Collier,
with a gulp. "Who was she?" "Maude
Adams"
Il remains to be added that Miss
Russell has revisited the Longacre
twice, and that Mr.. Collier has pro-
fessed his devotion each time. Blanche
Bates and Billie Burke are others who
have been spotted in the audience by
the wstchful Collier, ard accordingly

NEWARK, Jan. lO.--A demonstration
Of what can be accomplished by per
sistency and hard work has just been
given by two women members OF st.
Thomas Episcopal Church. Early last
summer it was decided by some of the
members that new pipe organ was
needed in the church. The proposition
TO raise sufficient funds for this purpose

Rose, president Of the Church Guild, was
heartily in favor Of the suggestion TO
get a new organ, and thought the money
could be raised.
1,r. Rose appointed Mrs. Ruth Rhodes
and Mrs. Walter G. Haupt, wife Of the
rector, committee TO raise the money
These two women started at once tc
make canvass for funds. They received
much encouragement and this increased
their interest. Many persons outside Cd
the church gladly assisted and wher
$500 was raised representative Of th'
church communicated with those hay
ing charge Of the Carnegie Organ Fund
and il was agreed by them TO contrib
ute the remaining $500. the organ t'
cost 81 600.
At a meeting Of the Guild Monday
night, Mr.. Rose announced that all
the money necessary had been raised
and was IN bank and that il was an
ticipated that the organ would be in
stalled by Palm Sunday. It is now in
tended TO organize a vested choir as
soon as the organ Is installed.
