ESCAPED PRISONER
Captured BY Police

from Marlboro Jail.

Police Of the First precinct last
night arrested William H. Forrest.
II years old, who escaped last Thurs
day from the jail at Marlboro, Nd,
where he was serving a term for
housebreaking.
Forrest, when arrested, carried a
revolver which he said belonged to

His wrists were badly cut from climb
Ing the Jail wall. and his ankles were
badly swollen from his four days
wandering.
Il had served thirty days" said
Forrest last night: ION Christmas
morning they gave me a herring and
a cup of coffee. Then determined
to escape. My opportunity came q.
few days ago.
Il climbed the Jail wall and cut
my wrists pretty badly, and turned
toward Washington. 1 wandered in

Tabernacle Sawdust Trail

Maybe you didn't know it. but when

are marching over q veritable Klon-
dyke of wealth.
So rich is the humble shavings car

believe 1t or not-that the man who
furnishes the sawdust for the Billy

OF pay, only asking that he be per-

Billy and his trail hitters are through

Many Articles Lost.
or course. the Sunday people make
every effort to collect lost articles,
and, in fact, they have q '1ost and

still there are many little things, such

sometimes precious stones. which lose
themselves in the sawdust never to be
recovered, unless, indeed, by the en-
terprising sawdust man
OF course, you would expect lots of
personal belongings to get loose from
their owners in such crowds as Billy
draws, especially in view of the at
tendant excitement of trail hitting.
But you wouldn't think that SO many
things are lost as really are lost in ev-

BeIaseo-sPeter Ibbet.on.s


George du Maurier's drawings for his
first novel, which ran in Harper's
Magazine in those remote days when
the ''Trilby" craze had not yet thrust
unmitigated fame upon the artist and
author. hold but a dim corner in the
memories of readers who have now
reached middle age. But II they are
in your mind at all they will spring
vfvtdly to life at sight Of the stage
pictures in the play made from Peter
Ibbetson," given this week at the Be-
lasco Theater. The producer seems
to have picked his players lovingly
with this end in view. The very spirit
OF Du Maurier's pencil dwells in the
character types, in the drawing-room
groups, and in the quaint mid-Vic-
torian costumes.
The play. by John N. Raphael, is
an unusually successful example of
dramatiZation. It has little OF the wan
dering Of plot and examining Of Incl
dent that make so many plays made
from novels merely mystifying to the
spectator who has not read the book.
The success in this instance is largely
due. no doubt. to the fact that the
story Of Peter Ibbetson" is Just the
expansion Of one clear and simple
idea, lending itself easily to dramatic
treatment The fantasy Of the lovers
who dreamed true" holds its spiritual
beauty, even in the glamor Of the
stage.
John Barrymore's equipment is
severely tested in playing the part of
Peter, so wholly different from the
characters in which his talents have
heretofore won fame. Peter Ibbet-
son is a shy. temperamental, dreamy
young Englishman, bred in the ar
tistic air Of France, and to him the
ordinary social world is uncongenial
to the point Of unreality. Life is real
for him only in his dreams and MEM
ories Of happy boyhood. with his
parents and his beloved "Mimsy," the
little girl who knew the way to
dream true. He finds her again In a
great lady, the Duchess Of Towers,
and when he has wrecked his worka-
day world by the righteous murder
OF his uncle, most despisable of the
queer folk who inhabit it, he escapes
altogether to the dear world of his
and her imagination. where they meet
through long years of happiness while
his body dwells in prison. Mr.. Barry
more, In rising surely and strongly to
luo requirements OF SuCn part, as
he assuredly does, broadens by a long
stride the scope Of his already splen-
did reputation.
And Constance Collier Is an unfail-
ing delight as Mary, Duchess Of Tow
ers. She has exactly the requisite
qualities OF grace. dignity and spiri-
tual sweetness. For the expression
Of deep and tender sentiment her per-
sonality would be difficult to find a
rival for. The unfailins note Of hap
piness that she maintains is particu-
larry to the point.
OF the remainder Of the company
the most pleasing are the players
who take the parts of the characters
in the dream scenes. and this en-
hances the effect of escape through
dreaming from a crude reality to an
ideal world.

Polps-.The Yankee Prince,

In the production Of The Yankee
Prince" at Polls this week a high
standard Of musical comedy is at
tanned. the production measuring up
to the vimfulness of the original
Cohan production. New business and
interpretations have been added that
bring II up to the minute.
A crude Chicagoan with millions,
social ambitions and a beautiful
daughter, who doesn't care a rap for
any kind Of a title but a Yankee one,
furnishes the motif Of the production.
An English earl, of course. doesn't
stand a chance when a real American
prince appears on the scene.
A four-hand poker game played on
Bert Williams lines and a baseball
session Of the same order furnished
the high spots of the evening.
In the role of the irrepressible Yam
kee prince who does not let a little
thing like her engagement to a Brit
ish earl interfere with his getting
the girl he loves, Billy Lynn is as
Cohanescue as could be desired. His
dancing is especially good in the
Yankee Prince" number.
Louise Mink makes a charming ad-
ventures and is delightful in 1.-The
Land of Dreams" It is unfortunate
that she does not appear more often.
As a husky Chicago lad who visits
the King of England with a letter of
introduction from the redoubtable
John L. Sullivan, Roger Gray sup
piled a goodly lot of real comedy of
the Homegrown kind. George
Natanson portrayed an American
crook who specializes in mining stock.
Sarah Edwards, as the Chicago moth
er who does not cherish a desire to
see any dukes or earls in her family,
was responsible for a number of
laughs.
Lillian Crosman, as the girl detec-
tive, had but one chance to show
what she could do, but she made the
most of 1t. Her song. Happy Days.
was one of the most enjoyable num-
bers Of the evening.
Jack Squires, as the Earl Of Wey-
mouth. and Eulalie Young, In the
role of Evelyn Fieldin. the American
girl whose dollars he wishes to marry.
were both entirely satisfactory. Other
capable members of the cast were
Bernard wally. Matt Hanley and
Ralph Nichols.
The settings of the production
added a great deal to its effective
ness, being of the vivid variety that
is finding so much favor at present.

bravery.
An air raid over London, a visit
to the trenches while shells exploded
about them, and a tour Of the great
est battlefields of the war were vfvidly
described. Mr.. Dill told Of meeting

in sound of the guns. He found
them provided with ample supplies of
food and clothing.
In conclusion he praised the work
Of the Y. N. c. A. and Red Cross.
