WAS GOOD OF ITS KIND
BUT KIN1TSJNLY FAIR
Shame to Spend So Much

WAS WELL PATRONIZED.
Maude Fealy Gennett.
America's youngest dramatic star,
Maude Fealy, who has won the great
est 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 wo
man 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 tes
timonial 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 Hen
ry, "do you. Miss Fealy?" The young
actress said she did not. but would find
tut. The next day she sent the fol
lowing note to Sir Henry Irving: "I
find that Albert Erward is His Majes
ty, 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 vaude
ville bill , for next week at the New
Phillips 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 fol
low next week's bill with a' week or
more of repertoire, all lovers of vau
deville 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.
4 Andersons 4 Featuring the
marvelous Anderson children.
Illustrated Song Cal Lankert.
Leroy Benson and Co. High Class
Musical Novelty Act.
Harris Beauregarde and Co., pre
tenting the rural comedy sketch, "The
Country Judge."
The Cameragraph, latest motion
pictures.
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 pro
gram the members and guests were
entertained by musical numbers and
tefreshments were served.
Plans were made for a public cele
bration of Arbor Day. It being pro
posed 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 dimen
sions 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 res
idence 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 gen
eral 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 lan
guages, 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 atten
tion 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 teach
ers and have more opportunity for in
fluence 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 necessa
ry 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 ar
rangements are made for patrons, pu
pils and teachers to meet in a social
way and become better acquainted.
These meetings are of the greatest ben
efit in maintaining the mutual confi
dence and respect needed for the
school's success. At other times even
ing sessions of school are held to en
able patrons to visit who find it im
practicable to come during regular
school hours.
Whatever measure of success has re
warded the school has been due in no
small measure to the hearty support
accorded it by the patrons. The ob
ject of this leaflet and of those to fol
low, 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 vacancy
made in the council by the withdrawal
of Anna May Jones. The social edu
cation committee recommended an eve
ning 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 recommen
dations 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
stationary and traveling rings and ad
justable ladders if the board will make
the improvements necessary to allow
of their use. The request of this coni-j
mittee to pirchase a dozen tennis'
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 accom
panied the school songs in a very cred
itable 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 in
teresting debate during the opening ex
ercise period Friday morning. The
question was. Resolved, That United
States senators should be elected by
the direct vote of the people. The pu
pils 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

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 di
rection. 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 ef
fort to have the proposed increase sus
pended 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.
The grain men have been buying on
this basis of the old rate of shipment,
and have large quantities of grain on I
