THE AUDIENCE
WAS PLEASED
Las! night one of the fines; pro-1
dilations ever seen here was offered i
and only a fair-sized audience was
there to sqe it, leaviin-g tihe remainder
of the theatre-goers with the same|
complaint of missing the good ones.
To keep such high class a: Tactions
as Liebler & Company and other pro-
ductions sent here it is evident that
the theater-goers must pay a little!
attention by attending.
"The Man From Home" was the:
play offered last night and never d d
a performance meet wi'th more uni-
versal! favor. Just a glance over thc|
house after the first act told of the
enjoyment. Kveryone was in spirit
with the play for -they couldn't help

distinction of hav-
ing been a passen
per on the first
railroad train evet
operated in Eng
land, says the Kan-
sas City Star. She
remembers quite
distinctly that pleasant experience of
her girlhood. Edward Kntwistlc. now
a resident of Dos Moines, la., was the
engineer who hauled the little four-
wheel coaches from Huddersfield.
Yorkshire, to Liverpool.
"People came from the country to
Huddersfield Just like they do now on
a circus day," said Mrs. Farrar. who
Is vigorous, in spite of her 91 years.
"The word had been circulated
throughout the country that an exrur
•ion train was going to be run on the
new tramway, and that no horses
would be used In starting or in holding
It back from running down hill too
fast. The people who gathered Into
Hiddrrsfleld were very much divided
in their opinion as to whether Engi-
neer Entwlstla would ever return with
hi i train load of passengers from his
venturesome enterprise.
"Three small ilat cars were behind
Mr. Entwistle's steam motor. There
were no seats. The passengers had to
stand up and hold to each other to
k®ep from falling off on the right-of-
way. My mother and I were together.
The little cars rocked violently and It
seemed at times that they would cer-
tainly turn over. In going up hill the
engine puffed and threw out great
clouds of smoke and cinders. We felt
like people who were enjoying our
first experience In a dirigible balloon,

"The train left headquarters at ten

passengers receiving hearty cheers
from the big crowd that lined ths
tracks. After we had proceeded a
j few miles, and no disaster occurred,
we began to feel easier, and fell *o

derful trip.
"The journey home was made after
night. 1 don't recall that there was a

John N. Mttchener, retired far-

Henry illall plays 'the "Man From

tion. He doesn't act, or at least so
cleverly does he portray the char-
ao er, that one forgets all atiout Mr.
Hall and just thinks of the 1>!g

There is mo doubt that everyone
will criticise the acting or Miss Ros-

Ambrose Blerce, the author of "Tn

Cuss Short stories, for his grim book
sets him, in the opinion of the lead
ing foreign crltica, beside Edgar
Allan Poe.
Mr. Mr. Blerce discussed the raaga-
alne short story at a recent luncheon.
"There are exceptions to every-
thing," said he, "but the reason for the
jonventlonality and worthlessnesa of
the typical magazine short story la not
