HETTY GREENS
 DAUGHTER SUED
To Appear in Superior Court Here to Defend
 "Spite Fence" Action.

When Hetty Green was alive and held the title of Americas richest woman she was given lots of space on the front page because of various actions which seemed strange to peo- ple who didn't have much money. Her daughter, Mrs. Sylvia Green NVillls of Greenwich, appears to have snhcrited some of this talent for pub licity and she will appear in the Sup CT IT court here soon tc defend a 'sspitc fence" suit brought against her bY Katherine F. Price, her neShbor dn Greenwich
 It is said the trouble was caused by the antics of Mrs. Wilks' collie dog Hack. who had a habit of scampering from his own broad acres to the ad~ joining Price estate. The daughter of 1Ietty Green didn't care to have her dog wapderiug on strangers property Sasiit. 5os a"' ''''' GU ''
 l.. B. Price. wife of the woman ho brought the present suit. was absent from Greenwich at the time but he instructed his lawyer 10 get an injunction restraining Mrs. Wilks from erecting the fence. When the tsuper!or Court had issued the injunc- rion. however. the fence was huilt Now the court Is asked to order Mrs Nyi1ks to remove the barrier anC damages of S1.Oo0 are also sought.
 r Is alleged by Mir. and Mrs. Price that clause iu the deeds to the property in that exclusive section o1 Greenwich prohibits the erection ot any division fences other than hedges of reasonable height between the premises. Mrs. Wilks claims th' fence is not on the boundary line ST 4 does not come within the meaning of the prohibitive clause.

rhe Hipp's New Offering.

From the moment the curtain went
up before the handsome chorus and
clever vi Shaeffer and Lew Mack sang
DO Peep" until the finale there
wasn't dull moment at the Hipp
last night. Standing out in the bill
was the work of Marie Kreuger, who.
though suffering from a severe cold,
put over an Say She Does" very
effectively. and Just as capably took
the part Of the French maid through
out the little play. Dick Butler and
Anna Cook were scream, Dick as
nthe henpecked husband, she as the
Jseolding, trouble raising wife and
aunt. Butler also sang 1.-THE Shorter
They Wear Them" a good lively
number, and with Miss Cook sang an
amusing novelty descriptive song,
closing the speciality with very clev-
er bit of dance work which started
the hands going strong, and was good
for three encores. After the First
of July. Goodbye, Wild Women, Good
bye" was new number Just off the
press, sung by Lew Mack, who has a
fine stage presence "a dandy fine voice
and puts the punch in his work.
vi Shaeffer is mighty clever, and ap-
peared to good advantage in every
line her song You Can Have 1t, I
Don't Want 1t" being particularly
well liked. Fern Delecey vas glad of
an excuse to work again before the
f6otlights, and the Illness of three
members Of the company made Billy
Malone very anxious to a~ail himself
Of the services of the little lady who
had beenssuch success In "lSid" roles
some time ago. Miss Delacey sang a
southern melody, Wonderful Nam

positively captivating. Though she
has not been appearing before the
public for quite long time, 1t was

very c"ident last night that she has
lost 1cne of the charm and talent that
wel her high public favor when she
'gas starring in some larger organiza-
tons. Billy Malone as the Irish Chef
and head of the Cooks Union, was an
EXCELLENT character. adding humor
plenty to the situations which were
Of themselves very funny. Anna Cook
deserves special mention for the man
ner in which she handled the part Of
the scolding wife. She is a clever
character lady who interprets the
part intelligently. The costumes and
settings were nifty, the newly fixed
furniture that cost Props Shear so
many cut and mashed fingers and
swear words. adding very much to
the atuactiveness of the stage. The
whole attraction reflected the able
efforts OF man back of IL that knew
his business, and II the crowd, which
was large last night, was really as
well pleased as 1t seem to be, Billy's
show will have good patronage.
