THE OGDEN STANDARD,
. . - THE SENIOR PLEASES
1 II VEBY URGE
j f AUDIENCE :
Not only was the presentation of
Edward B. Morris' drama "The
Senior" last night at the Orpheura a
triumph for Director T. Earl Pardoe,
a high compliment to the ability of
the talented members of the St. Jo
seph's church choir and Council 777,
Knights of Columbus and musical di
rectress, Mrs. Maurice Kennedy, but
ft gave an evening of unalloyed pleas
I ure to a capacity audience
From the manner in which the
members of the cast were absorbed
Jn their parts and seeminglv obliv
ious of the presence of the audience,
it was apparent that thev had been
rehearsed with the "four wall" idea,
and if there was any criticism to
make, it would be of the audience
who, through personal acquaintance
. with the players, almost spoiled the
Jg strongest scene in the drama, and
' wa in winch Mr Ravmond Ryan
J' and Miss Ella O'Neill kept their
poise in spite of the audible "titter
ing" of their friends, was worthy of
special commendation.
I In addition to the excellent acting
of all who had speaking parts, there
were several pleasing surprises in a
musical way. The singing of "Blow
the Smoke Away" by Mr. Ryan in the
first act, made it apparent to all pres
ent that the singer possessed a pleas
ing britone voice and the one was
interpreted in an excellent manner,
one verse being resung as an encore
Miss Margaret "Babe" Grill only ap
peared once in the action of the play,
but she made that appearance count
as one of the features of the evening,
by singing "When Irish Eyes are
Smiling" from 'Isle o' Dreams), with
mch charming expression that she
wns compelled to respond to four
encores. Miss Grill posseses an ex
cellent soprano voice and a most
pleasing stage presence. She was as
sisted in the chorus of her song by
Hie mixed chorus of twelve voices,
which added pleasure.
A musical feature not often heard
was a ladies' quartette, composed of
Edna Healy-Smyth, Margaret McNuI
ty, Ruth Thatcher and Florence Ma
W ginnis, who all possess excellent
f voices. They sang the "Lullaby Song"
from "Erminie" with an exquisite
blending of well controlled voices.
Though the song occupied consider
able time, an encore was enthusiastic
ally called for and answered in an
equally charming manner. The glee
club sang "Like Mother Used to
Make" and the singing of "On the
Old Virginia Shore" (Gabriel) by Ed.
Greenwell, J. A. Junk, Ben Critchlow
and Francis Goddard sounded like n
"real" quartette, the voices of the
well known singers blending with organ-like
harmony. The song was de
servedly encored and one verse sung
again. Margaret Toy gave a dainty
violin solo and the accompaniments
were ably played by Miss Mabel
Jvrauss. me musical part of the
evening as a whole gave great pleas
ure to all and Mrs Kennedy is de
serving of much praise for the ex
cellent training of the singers In the
different numbers.
Bui "the play's the thing" with
apologies to Shakespeare and the
plavers were well cast. In the first
place the curtain rose at 8 32, some
thing very unusual in an amateur
production and from the first ap
pearance of Raymond Ryan in the
prologue "Memories of Any Old Grad
uate," the audience felt that if the
other players were equally as much
at home in their parts, that the suc
cess of the drama was assured
Mr. Ryan was Gordon Waanwrlght,
a Senior, who had worked his way
through college by running a lunch
room and In hit place of business, the
first act was set He held his part
firmly in hand throughout, displaying
an excellent speaking voice control
led to suit every situation and he
showed histrionic ability of no mean
order. In the love scenes with Miss
O'Neill, who was Eleanor Forbes, the
work of both was highly commend
able. Miss O'Neill in personal ap-
peaiance, charm of manner and cap
ability as an actress, gave a most
satisfying interpretation of the lead
( lng role of Eleanor Forbes and the
large bouquet of pink roses which
she received was well deserved.
Steve Keogh, as Perry Spencer, a
snobbish classmate of Wainwright,
proved one of the surprises of the
evening. The role was an unpopular
one, but he handled it with skill, his
voice being fully sufficient to the
needs of the part.
The comedy roles were exception
ally well taken, Delia Farmer play
ing the part of Violet, a helpful sort
of person, and Harvey Cahill as
"Beanc" a freshman. Miss Farmer
is a finished commedienne and her
part In the play was one of the
main features. She also received a
bouquet for her excellent work,
Mr. Cahill, as "Beane," was an ex
cellent foil for the strong-minded Vio
let and the acting of the two created
a great deal of amusement.
In the character role of Dub Duf
fleld, an English debator, Leo Clark
found Instant success. John Fisher
as Pug Collins, a senior, kept his
poise well, his "getting over" of sev
eral pointed "locals" without the
least semblance of self-consciousness,
being a compliment to his ability.
John McLoughlin received favor
able comment for his capable inter
pretation of Nick Meade.
Bob Adams acted the minor Tole
of "Tommy Thompson." a football
star, ably and gave good assistance
in the work of the glee club,
Jean, a chauffeur and Mike, a
Junch counter chef, were capably
handled by A. T. LaFreniere and Ed
Brophy.
The role of Gertrude Spencer, a
vain young lady, who, like her broth
er, has an exalted Idea of her posi
tion In society, was most naturally
played by Ruby Cook.
May Conroy played the difficult
part of Mrs. Lee, Eleanor's artisto
cratic aunt, in a commendably self
contained manner
Margaret McNultv and Margaret
Grill looked and acted well In the
minor roles of Miss Jones, a Lake
ville girl, and Miss White, a visitor.
The play is one of an excellent
I tvpe. rich in sentiment and pleasing
In humor. It tells a story of a
young map of good family, who
works his way through college, meet
ing obstacles in a social way. which
cause him to abstain entirely from
attending social events. He meets a
young lady of wealth and good fam
ily, in an informal manner the meet,
ing resulting in a case of mutual love.
He accepts an invitation to a dance
where she is a guest of hisr snobbish
classmate. He receives a formal in
troduction to her and during the
evening, "cuts out" his classmate.
Her guardian finds out that he Is the
proprietor of a lunch room and for
bids her to see him again. He later
meets the guardian. Mrs. Lee and
learus that she is a triend of his
mother He tells her who his moth
er was and her feeling toward him
is immediately changed. The lovers
are congratulated by Wainw right's
classmates and his sweetheart's
young lady friends and the curtain
falls on a pretty love scene.
The drama is in three acts, the
first one is laid in Wainwright's
i lunch room, the second in the col
lege reception room and the third, on
the college campus. All three are
pleasingly arranged, the first one In
particular, containing a number of
original ideas.
The members of the mixed chorus
are Mav Conroy, Edna Smyth, Mar
garet McNulty. Florence Maglnnls,
Ruth Thatcher. Mayme Kennedy, Ben
Critchlow, Robert Adams, Francis
Goddard, J. A. Junk, Ed Greenwell.
Ed. Brophy and N. O. Ogden. With
the addition of P. K. Smith, the seven
gentlemen of the chorus formed the
Glee club. ,
The play will be given again to
night and a large attendance Is expected.

WHOLE YEAR
Considerable time was taken up in
the municipal court this morning in
the trial of H. Douty charged with
drunkenness,
The cases of Ogden City vs. Willard
Kane. Frank Smith, Tom O'Neill,
Martin Emerson, Job Reed and Fred
Skammln were also heard.
The first case up was that of Wil
lard Kane, who was charged with
peddling w ithout a license. His case
was taken under advisement yester
day morning and when it was called,
Assistant City Attorney David Cook
explained to the court that the defend
ant had procured a license from the
mayor's office, and he made a motion
for dismissal, which was granted.
Frank Smith was the Becond man.
He was charged with petit larceny
and was arrested for stealing two
coats from Mike Ritchie, bartender In
a lower Twenty-fifth street saloon
Ho was caught with the goods on
He pleaded guilty, but said that he
was drunk at the time and did not
know what he was doing. Ritchie
was called to the stand and said that
oe naa missed the clothing trom Ills
place of business and while he was
looking around the front office, he
had seen Smith pass the saloon with
them over his arm. He spoke to
the man, demanding his clothes, but
Smith would not give them up. He
then followed him and called the pa
trol wagon. He said also that the
defendant was not drunk. Desk Ser
geant Hagbart Anderson testified
that Smith did not appear to be drunk
wheny he was brought to the police
station. Judge Recder then sen
tenced Smith to 40 days In Jail.
Tom O'Neill admitted that he wap
drunk again. He had been absent
from court for about a month. Hu
was permitted to tell his story and
said that he had received his wages
yesterday and, after paying a few of
his bills, proceeded to make a "booze
hoist" out of himself, the result being
that he landed in Jail. He said that
this time he wanted to take the
pledged as indulgence in strong drink
had been the cause of all his trou
ble. The Judge told him to go ahead
and take the pledge so he raised his
right hand and said, "I solemnly
promise to keep sober for a year,"
and the Judge suspended sentence
H Douty was arrested yesterday
on complaint of Dr. A. J. Webb, at I
Everett's livery stable. He pleaded
not guilty to the charge against him
and Dr. Webb was the first witness
called. He testified that he was in
the office of the Everett livery stable
when Douty and a companion came
in and the defendant started to tell
him of some trouble he had with Mr.
Everett. Webb tired of the conver
sation and walked out of the ofiice
Douty followed him around the prem
lses in a rising mood of temper, final
ly telling him that he would "beat
the face off Everett" if he didn't set
tie with him The witness told him
that he would not touch Everett, it
he could get hold of a neckyoke. This
angered Douty and he seized the doc
tor and wanted to fight him. As
Douty is much the larger man, Dr.
Webb called the police and Officer
Marlin made the arrest.
Desk Sergeant Hagbart Anderson
testified that Douty was in a fighting
mood when he was booked and had
used some violent language. Officer
Marlin said that Douty had been
drinking, but that he was not trou
ble some when arrested, and had only
been a little Impudent when he wa:
being searched.
The defendant had no witnesses
but spoke in his own behalf. He sa
that he had only had three inu
drinks that morning and he dela
any man to say that he was drum I
or had ever been drunk in his lilt j
He said that he was not In tho habu I
of drinking and that the three he hac
yesterday were the first in severa
months. He had worked for Mi
Everett prior to January and had not
received his wages He told Dr
Webb of this and said that he hau !
said that he would slap Everett's face.
He said that he was not angry untl,
Dr. Webb said that he would get a
neckyoke In case of Mr. Everett be
ing assaulted.
After summing up the evidence
Judge Reeder told the defendant to
approach people in a proper manner
for the discussion of business affairs
and not to bother disinterested peo
pie. He then placed him under a
six months' suspended sentence to
keep the peace.
Martin Emerson came in from Po
catello yesterday, misjudged his ca
pacity for liquor aud went down and
out while on his way up Twenty-third
street hill. A passerby saw him and
called for the auto-patrol. He was
asleep when the patrol arrived with
Patrolman Heara, but was awakened
and taken to the station. He plead
ed guilty to the charge of drunkenness
and as there were no bad circumstan
ces connected with his case he was
given a suspended sentence
' DRINKING HAD CAUSED
ALL IRE TROUBLES
or a family
Job Reed was arrested on complaint
of his wife and charged with being
drunk. In police court this morning
he said that he had two or three bvrs
last night and had xono home only
to find himself locked out. The
judge asked him if he had abused his
wife. He said no, but that his wife
had abused him. The judge then ask
ed if she had laid hands on blm and
he answered, "No. but she laid a
broom on me." Reed's story of mis
treatment was corroborated by Oscar
Couch, a neighbor, who said that Mrs.
Reed had disturbed the neighborhood
a number of times by threatening
her huBband In a loud tone of voioe.
Judge Reeder, through questioning,
found cut that Reed's drinking habit
had been at the bottom of all the trou
I bio. and, after getting the defendant
