`HE GUIIIEII IIULE

The Prince Edward Dramatic Club

under the auspices of the Benevolent artists of many ycnr's experience.

at the Opera. I-louse. Charlottetown, last evening im their presentation of the Irish Comedy Drama. The Golden Rule. It was decidedly their best play and each performer scored a success which would have done credit to artistes o, many yeur's experience. The play was ini four acts, beauti- fully costumed and well staged and resembled in many ways the Rosary which was so well liked by theatre goers here.

The plot was dccidedlv entertaining

and the strong moral through it was clearly brought out. George De- Blois took the part of Dick- Stanley, a Wall Street broker who lost his own and his wifc's fortunes besides trust money of the Church through the advice of a faithless friend who thought, through the husband's down- fall, to gain the affections of his wife. Miss Hortense Phillips, as Mrs. Stanley, was simply charming and did her part gracefully. and nob- ly sustained her own honor and pure love of her husband. Miss Hazel Bremner, as Mrs. Stanley’s sister, was winsome in the extreme and in her misplaced love won the affection of the audience. She triumphed over her -sentiments with the help of her guardian and protector Father O’Neillland was her 'bright animated self to the end, winning as her reward 3 loving husband in Tom Oartniii, J. Parker Hooper. There was fun in plenty, pure Irish wit, and too much praise cannot be given Miss Annie Egan as Bedelia Gratton, and W. U. Whitlock, her admirer. Herman Hauser. It was Miss Egairs first appearance, and she made' a host of friends who will welcome her to the stage at any time. Mr. Brown outshone his former performances and one would almost believe he had missed his calling from last night’s rendition of his part. Mr. Bayer, as Courtney Dale, the villian of the play, was as rletestablc as-lie~ could be, and acted well, wliille Miss Mc- Kenzie and Mrs. Barlow, both took their parts in a thoroughly familar manncr. There was no restraint on the part of any of the caste. They knew 'their parts, well and Charlott- etown may _feel justly proud gf its talented young people and those who had not the pleasure of seeing the performance' will no doubt do so when it is repeated tonight. The spe- cialties were too good to need fur- ther coiiiment when it is said that Miss Bremner sang two songs, and Austin Trainer two, for who can please a Charlottetown audience bet- ter than these some obliging young people. William Trainor's step dancing was something out of the ordinary line and brought down the house.

The program of Vinnicomlie’s orch'

estra was patriotic throughout and the orchestra excelled almost all pre- vious efiorts. The music was de- lightful and most heartily received. Mrs. J . F. Trainor so accomplished as a. pianist and so widely known as such, in her accoinpaniments to the solos well merited a generous share of the econiums of praise sung over last night‘s performance.

CHAMPION EGG-EATER

BOSTON, MBP. 15--It pays to be Q

champion egg-eater. You might; not think so. At first flush, it would probably seem that a certain vorac- ity of egg appetite might prove ex- gensivc. But listen! -

Professor' Albert W. Scott of No. 37 Mill street, Dorchester, who has the unique distinction of consuming twelve eggs in two minutes, has just celebrated his fifty-ninth birthday, and neighbors who visited the Scott home presented the champion egg- eater with the best variety' of hon fruit.

_Professor Scott was overjoyed when

he entered iiis parlor and found many dozens of eggs, especially when the price is soaring. There were all kinds of eggs brought to the professor in honor oi the event.

Althoiigb he had eaten his supper,

Professor Scott demonstrated to his guests that he still holds claim to the title of champion, as he consum- cd a dozen large eggs im a little short of tivo minutes. Nobody pre- sent attempted to wrestle the title from Professor Scott, who was looking about for someone in the party to try a similar "stuiit."
