WAS GOOD OF ITS KIND BUT KIN1TSJNLY FAIR Shame to Spend So Much Money on "Red Feather."
WAS WELL PATRONIZED.
Maude Fealy Gennett. America's youngest dramatic star, Maude Fealy, who has won the greatest sussess of her career in Martha Morton's new comedy, "The Illusion of Beatrice." in which she will be seen it the Gennett tonight, was leading woman for the late Sir Henry ' Irving fchen but eighteen years of age. In this connection a most amusing story Is told. When Miss Fealy appeared frith Sir Henry Irving for the last time In London, a beautifully engrossed testimonial was presented to her by a number of London admirers. The
young actress, glowing with pride,
Showed the document to Sir Henry Ir
ving and with girlish delight, read
the list of the names appended to the
testimonial. As she mentioned each
hame, Sir Henry nodded his head with Approval, saying, "I know him well,"
Dc "he is a friend of mine." Finally, Mies Fealy read the last name on the list, which was Albert Edward. "I Bon't know who that is," said Sir Henry, "do you. Miss Fealy?" The young actress said she did not. but would find tut. The next day she sent the following note to Sir Henry Irving: "I find that Albert Erward is His Majesty, the king,", Arthur Deagon Gennett. Arthur Deagon, of the Henry W. Savage forces, has been engaged by the Askin-Singer company, to play the leading role in "The Time, the Place and the Girl." The part, that of a Eunny, good-natured "sport" would seem to be peculiarly suited to Mr. Deagon's infectious style of comedy. It comes to the Gennett soon. Vaudeville at the Phillips.
There will be. a pleasing variety of entertainment offered in the vaudeville bill , for next week at the NewPhillips and the performers who are not regular features will be new to the patrons of the house. As it is the Intention of Manager Murray to follow next week's bill with a' week or more of repertoire, all lovers of vaudeville will want to see this bill as
several days will elapse before they re offered another. Indications are that the program for next week will
be found up to the high standard that
Manager Murray endeavors to main
tain and at which he is so successful Below is the program in full: Overture Mr. Chas. L. Stone, musi tal director. Toki Murati Japanese wire artist.

As before noted, the time has been
Changed for the performances on Sat
urday night and this should be borne
In mind by those who attend at that time. The doors open at 7 o'clock on
Saturday night and the first perform
ance begins at 7:30 and the second at 1:45.
There is no doubt that the romantic
opera, "lied Feather," which appeared at the Gennett last night had tuneful
music, plenty of good people, rich cos
tumes and much scenery to set off the play, but yet it did not soar above the common place. The large audience which greeted the performance should
have been at the Gennett Thursday
night to see "Around the Clock." it no doubt costs more money to stage
"Red Feather" than "Around the Clock." and that is where the hurt
comes. It's a shame to waste so much
time, energy and coin of the realm on
such an attraction. The "Red Feath
er" is built on grand opera lines and
about one grand opera in a life time is
sufficient for a Gennett theater audi ence.
A spot of wit here and there in the
piece was good. It's to be regretted
there was not more of it. There were
three comedians, but they were not
burdened with work.
There are many shows much worse than "Red Feather," but the average show goer is satisfied with having
seen the opera once.

TO OBSEflVE ARBOR DAY. The Tuesday Club at New Paris Will Beautify a Barron Commons.
New Paris, O., March 23. The Tuesday club met with Miss Mary 'olf Tuesday evening. The program Tor the efcaing was on Swiss life. Papers wore read by Mrs. Garwood tredell and Miss "Wolf. After the program the members and guests were entertained by musical numbers and tefreshments were served. Plans were made for a public celebration of Arbor Day. It being proposed that a public tree planting take place on the depot commons, which are so barren. Further plans for this relebration will be made soon.
President Merrill, of the board of
public works, states that Wednesday while the plastered addition to the old Charles home at Glen Miller park was being torn down, a secret cellar was found. This cellar is about eight feet by eight feet, about half the dimensions of the old addition to the house, and it is thought this cellar during the ante-bellum days was used to secret slaves fleeing along the "underground railroad" to Canada and freedom. This cellar has a brick flooring and brick walls. It is about four and a
half feet deep and air is admitted to it by an air chamber through the ground, the air entering the chamber through
a small hole some little distance from the house.
Knew of the Mystery.
While Park Superintendent W. F. Klopp and a gang of men were at work
Wednesday tearing down the addition,
an old man, with whom none of the men was acquainted, approached and
inquired if the secret cellar had been
discovered. He was told that nothin
was known of such a cellar. Then the
old man kicked away some dust and
rubbish on the floor of the addition, and finally lifted a trap door which
disclosed to the astonished workmen
the probable hiding place of the slaves.
An old, ladder, in a badly dilapidated condition, led to the brick floor of the
little cellar. News to the Tenant.
People who are acquainted with the old house, state that they never knew of this hiding place, as they thought
the only cellar the house "possessed"
was under the brick wing. John Haw
kins, wJio lived in the house for some
time, sCated that he had never noticed
a trap door in the floor of the plaster
ed addition of the house and he was greatly surprised when told of the dis
covery that had been made.
The Charles home is one of the old
est buildings in the count-, having been erected when this part of the
country was first settled. The house was formerly the property of the
gTeat grandfather of City Engineer
Charles and City Controller Webster Parry. The brick part of the house is to be remodeled and made the residence of the park superintendent.

From the Garfield school press this week comes the first of a number of leaflets that will be printed. The first issue is creditable and indicates that the department is one of much promise among the students of this building. The leaflet contains a general statement regarding Garfield as follows: The Garfield school includes but three grades 7A, SB and 8A, or the last half of the seventh and all of the eighth grade. Three courses of study are offered English, Latin and Ger
man. Pupils taking up tne study oi
either Latin or German omit physiolo
gy in the 7A grade, English classics in the tSB grade and English grammar in
the JSA grade. In other respects the
courses are the same. By taking up the study of either Lat
in or German in this school the pupil
has a decided advantage in arranging
his high school course. He may do an extra year of work in one of these languages, or he may devote an extra
year's study to some other branches in which he -becomes specially interested.
Pupils who do not expect to enter
high school are advised to take the
English course in Garfield.
The school is conducted on the de
partmental plan. Each teacher has
charge of but one or two lines of work and pupils pass to the different rooms
to recite. Lessons are prepared in the
assembly rooms where there are no rec
itations in progress to distract attention from the work in hand.
The departmental plan has several
advantages. Teachers are able to make more thorough preparation for
their work when they are not required
to teach all the subjects in the course
of study. It is possible to have a more complete equipment for the work of
each since this does not have to be du
plicated for the different rooms. Pupils
are thrown in contact with more teachers and have more opportunity for influence from this source. Much of the friction between restless pupils and
teachers is avoided by the frequent changes. The co-operation of patrons, pupils and teachers is recognized as necessary to the highest success of the school. So far as practicable pupils are permitted to join with teachers in descisions relating to school matters. Patrons are invited to visit the school and to consult with the teachers as often as possible. Occasionally arrangements are made for patrons, pupils and teachers to meet in a social way and become better acquainted. These meetings are of the greatest benefit in maintaining the mutual confi
dence and respect needed for the school's success. At other times evening sessions of school are held to enable patrons to visit who find it impracticable to come during regular school hours. Whatever measure of success has rewarded the school has been due in no small measure to the hearty support accorded it by the patrons. The object of this leaflet and of those to follow, is to bring the patrons into still closer touch with the aims and efforts of the school. In the numbers which are to follow in the series, different
departments of the school work and phases of school life will be discussed. School Council's. Session. An unusually busy session of the school council was held this week. Ivy Russel was chosen to fill the vacancymade in the council by the withdrawal
of Anna May Jones. The social education committee recommended an evening session of school again this term;
also to try to make an arrangement for
news from all the schools to appear in
an educational department in each of
the daily papers. Both recommendations were approved.
The physical education Hlwrfinittee
recommended that the school board be asked to make several improvements in gymnasium next year. The coun
cil approved. They also approved the
recommendation thatr-the school place

balls, a half dozen baseballs, another
glove and two tennis rackets for out
door sports this spring, and summer
This will put everything in good con
dition for the out-door games. Orchestra's First Appearance. The Garfield school orchestra made its first appearance before the school this term, last Monday morning. They
furnished two selections and accompanied the school songs in a very creditable manner. It is hoped that they will appear on the program frequently during the term. An Interesting Debate. The SA room was the scene of an interesting debate during the opening exercise period Friday morning. The question was. Resolved, That United States senators should be elected by the direct vote of the people. The pupils did quite well, showing that they had made preparation for the occasion. Mr. Heironimus, Mr. Branson and Mr. Wissler acted as judges, and rendered a decision in favor of the negative. Basketball Challenge. A team of basket ball players from Webster has challenged the Garfield Juniors for a game. If possible they will bo met some Friday evening in the

In the record room of the court house which is located in the basement, are seven big dry goods boxes containing all the records, papers, receipts, etc., of the old Commercial bank at Hagerstown. They were placed there by J. A. Spekenhier. receiver for the bank, after he had made his final report. Friday afternoon County Clerk Harry E. Penny had the delightful task of hunting through these boxes for an envelope which contained some private
papers of Cashier Robert Hicks, of the First National bank of Hagerstown. Naturally, Mr. Penny, who was all afternoon at his task, did noffind what he was looking for until the last box had been opened. Mr. Hicks asked Mr. Penny to make the search, as he stated that these papers had by mistake, got "mixed with the Commercial bank papers. Ripping of boards and hammering of nails resounded throughout the court house from noon until sunset.

The grain dealers of the state now complain of the proposed advance in freight rates on grain to the seaboard by the roads hauling grain in that direction. The shippers, through the Indiana Grain Dealers' association
have filed with the Indiana Railroad commission, an informal complaint, asking it to use its influence in an effort to have the proposed increase suspended at least until the grain dealers could ship what grain they now have on hand.
The railroads have published a new
tariff, to become effective April 1. The increase on grain shipments named in the tariff is from 2Vi cents to 4 cents a
hundred pounds.
