AGAIN WINS FAMOt'S SPIT. George ". Sabre, whose summer home Is nt Alburgh, has won again In his famous suit with the promoters of a street rnllwny deal in Rhode Island. Mr. Sabre is said to be the on'y stockholder who elecllned to exchange Ills Pulled Traction for Rhode Island Securities stock on the basis of four share's of Cnlted Traction for one .".hare of Rhode Island Securities. The bill of complaint alleges that the eom plnlnant wax n stockholder of the 1'nl ted Traction eomp-iny, which eiwned nnd iii-ld all the share's of the capital stock or certain stn-et railway com panies of Rhnde Island, that up to June- 24. 1 002. the Pnlted Traction com pnny was entitled to and did recel.'e all the net earnings of these corpora tions bv wav of dlviel-nds. but that June 24. 1P02. the Pnited Traction agreed with the Rhode Island com pany that each of the railway corpor ations should lease tn the Rhode- Island compnnv for years Its property rights and franchise, upon the terms that the Rhode Island company' pay I'nlted Traction 5 per cent, per annum on Its stock, guaranteed. The- bill nve'ts that this action wis without authority of the board of di rectors of the- Cnlted Traction and without opportunity for its stockhold ers to veite upon the proposition. Later the Rhode Island Securities com pany, chartered in New Jersey, claim ed the right to all the net earnings of the Rhode Island e-ompany and has. no other assets.

Miss Hillman Is too well known to Hurllngton threat re-goers to need much comment vpoii her wnrk. Slight and petite of stature, she has a most charm ing way of winning favor with her audi ence from the start, and hi the lole of Cl-irle she pl.ivcd her comedy to pr fectlon, and was a mutch for every strong dramatic situation which came her way. Her supporting ccmpany was up tn the usual average of repertoire players and gave' Miss Hillman capable support. George Rnsener gave a very acceptable performance of the part of Hugh Camp bell, and plnye-d his scenes with Miss Hillman well. His singing of Illustrated songs lost some favor on account of his hoarseness, but his appeal to the gallery to Join the chorus In the lasi song caught on big with tin- "gods" and won several encores. John Clarke In the dual role of Sir William Colve rt and Sliver H'ir gave n satisfactory pci formatter and was especllly good In the latter character.
