 MILLS TIGHT

Lawrence, Mass, Feb. 5.---Strike sympathizers who gathered about the gates of the Arlington mill, one of the 12 textile plants here against which a. strike was instituted on Monday to obtain 54 hours pay for 4S hours work, attempted to snatch dinner pails from operatives reporting for
 work today and caused considerable excitement. The police interfered be- fore serious trouble developed.

The print works of the Pacific mills also were shut down and no effort was made to reopen the Everett mills, which were closed all day yesterday. The four mills of the American Woolen com pany opened their gates, but the em- ployee who reported for work were sufficient to operate only few de- partmentS.

MCCORMACK IS ACCLAIMED BY
 BIC AUDtENCt

John NTcCormack. who appeared yesterday afternoon at PoH's theatro, certainly measured up to all that the critics have said of his work this year, for at no time in the career of this famous artist has lis voice attained cne superb quality that 1t has at the present time. the liquid touaI quail ties, ease in erunciation, perfect die tion and technique were never before as noticeable as in his work yester- day, the artist himself seemed pleas ed with himself and responded to a number of encores, and it is to he regretted that so many l-ople left their seats imme ediateIy at he cOnClu- sion of the last song on -.le program as this lack of courtesy to the artist deprived many people who remained in their seats the opportunity to hear additional numbers, as it vas Mir. NIc- CormaCk returned and rendered that stirring song. "The >raacicans Come, D It is to be hoped that future artists will not be subjected to the sight of people in the audience rushing from their seats as fl they were late for their train.
 MT. McCarmock sang 20 songs in all, 12 that were on the program and eight encores, opeuinz with I'll mic tesoro," aria from Don Giovanni. .'' and as an encore "Oh. Sleep. Why Dost Thou Leave Me?'' Then followed a lighter group: La Procession, ,'' Franck; "Oh. Like a Queens Her Happy Tread Peel @'Love's Secret" Bantocki "The Lord Is My Light" Haydn, encored by Del RtegO's Thank God for a Garden,'' and Bur Ieigh's Little Mother Of NIfne''
 As Is his custom Mir. Mccormack sang a number of Irish Folk Songs which pleased the jrnense aud ence greatly and he was compelled to re- spond by singing as enc0res the old favorites, Mother Niachree," and T Hear You Calling Me- ''Kfttie Ma lone" and "Te Banks and Braes." The real treat of the day came In the last group of songs sung by MT. Nc Cormack and each number received the applause that 1t merits. It in- cluded Dear Old Pal of Nfine,' Gttz- Rice; "She Rested by the Broken Brook" Coler3dge e-TayIor; Roses of I2fca-dv." Havdn-WoOd; Thine Eyes still Shine" Schneider, encored by the stirring song, The Americans Cone!' which was sung with telling dramatic effect.
