Le Baron's father was one of those 1 tn I ftmm men, Icnuci ua w. family, but a veritable tyrant when he reached his desk. Everything and every body ano opposed mm went down before his iron will. After a time the thing naturally got upon bis wife's nerves. So she warned soa against the dangers of greed and wealth, and voune John.

Strange fortune, wai It not, that he should haw been inspired to become a una vi action uy me very young wuiuna whose father he was destined to oppose in an effort to get control of the majority of shares in a Colorado railroad deal? Stranger still that this very woman should have come to plead with him in the moment of success, and that his refusal to yicid to father should have stood between their happiness. And yet it would have teen more strange if the breach between them had not healed before the final cur tain For his father's eon," unlike the man from he Inherited the and his great ability in business, was fighting for an honest cause and not for private gam. Now all this makes quite a nice little story, of course, and one that may look well on the stage or between the coven a vague idea that we have seen things very much like it in both places'. But the difference is that on the atage it won't do to hesitate tov long about details.

In the second act, after John Baron. has announced his intention of taking no part in the scheme to ruin other people's property, he is shown with a company of inenas on Dotra tae yacm iNomaoic, a vary nice stage yacht to look at, but one wmcn Denavea very oaaiy last nignt, and. which seemed to be noisily going to pieoes on the roclcs at a time wnen it should have been placidly see-sawing to kuu iru as uub lu ixucrxapi iuv yiui. tnougn, truth to ten, the plot baa arranged to that detail Itself. Cm the yacht were two very youngish 'pinions who had conceived the idea of having the wireless operator gather in all the vagrant Marconigrams that happened to be floating about in space, no matter for whom they were Intended.

These the youngish persons translated by means of eoda books, and at the proper time a message conveniently- appropriated was tb means of revealing: to John Le Baron the financial operations of the enemy.

If the play lacked dash and ginger in the original. Mr. Herford In his reconstruction of It, managed to supply the deficiency In generous meas ure. It ought to keep the patrons of the theatre in good humor. While the play is tenuous there are many funny situations and bright sayings.

The plot of the piece is built around the establishment of Claudlne Benolt. who calls 1 the Innovation Florist Shop. She has hit upon the clever idea of substituting hosiery and lingerie for American beauty roses and carnations which young men order sent to their womjen friends, the former, of course, being no parties to the deception. Consequently, when the Rev. Cadwal- ader Cope orders several floral pieces sent to three of his maiden- parishioners and Miss Benolt sends them elegant pairs of hosiery instead, there are bound to be some humorous complications.

These situations are furthar enhanced when an opportune mouse forces the young women to reveal the fact that they didn't throw the presents out of the window, as they said they did. mere are aiso a ioi or compiicauuns over the fact that Angelica Perkins was anxious to marry a man with a past, while her friend.

Unless four members of the Board of Trustees of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals return unexpectedly from their vacations in Europe, the charge of misconduct made at last week's meeting against Michael J. Rlckard, the veteran Assistant Superin tendent, will not be taken up until the first week In September. The board members absent are Dr. John Winters Bran- nan, President of the Board; Secretary Paulding, and Messrs. Stern and Farley.

Only four members are left to conduct a meeting, and the law requires five as a Quorum. The scandal Involving the sup plies for Bellevue has already resulted in the dismissal of an auditor and the suspension of Mr. Rickard. There has been considerable comment in and about Bellevue regarding the absence of Dr. Brannan and his three associates during what may develop into a crisis.

The discharge of an auditor for neglect of duty and. the suspension of Rickard leaves the responsibility of the bookkeeping, supply and purchase departments on the shoulder of Dr. W. H. Smith, the General Medical Superintendent.

General dissatisfaction on the part of many connected with Bellevue was not smoothed away when it was learned that a dosen male nurses from the Mills Male Training School had been dismisaeo lor misconaucc. i The step was taken by the authorities upon the receipt of a round robin signed by a number of other nurses in the training school, who declared that the actions of their fellow-workers reflected seriously upon all the pupils and erraouatea. it was said at the office of the Commissioner of Accounts yesterday afternoon that a preliminary report upon a ten months' investigation of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals would be presented to Mayor McCleilan upon his return from his vacation. The complete report is to he presented upon completion of the investigation another city department. Another investigation may oe instituted bv the District Attorney's office.

At the office of the Commissioners of Accounts it was said that officials and employes of Bellevue had violated several sections of tne Penal Code. No names were men tioned, but the positions occupied by the men under suspicion would point to the nature of the ofinses charged. Trustees Stern and Farley lert the city In the latter part of June, while charges were being drawn up against two employes in the bookkeeping department, feeeretarv Pauldinjr absented himself two weeks before that time. Inability to make a quorum in the board has not been found before since it came into existence, seven years ago. $1,000 FOR CURING RHINO.

Mogul a Costly Patient for Bronx Zoo If Dr. Van Mater Collects. Dr. George Van Mater of 682 Greene Avenue, Brooklyn, who operated last January on the righi eye of Mogul, the big rhinoceros of the Bronx Zoo, appeared before Justice Crane, in the Spe cial Term of the Supreme Court, yes terday In a suit he has begun against the New York Zoological Society to collect his fee of, 1.000 for the operation. Madison Grant, hecretary or the society, the legal guardian of Mogul, is made defendant in the suit.

Mogul was said to-have been almost blind in his right eye. He could hardly distinguish the limits of his cage. Since the operation by Dr. Van Mater, however, the rhino is said to be getting along nicely. Dr.

Van Mater alleges that he operated on both of Mogul's eyes in May, 1908, giving his services that time gratuitously because he believed that the benefit he would get from the advertisement would compensate him. But when called In a second time, in January last, he says. mere was no understanding mat his services were to be riven free, and he aent a bill for $1,000 to Dr. Hornaday, the SI Mira t-naa Mogul's custodians refused to nir the bill, and the attorneys for the society.

MAY SUTTON STARTS TALK English Papers Busy with Broken Engagement Because Woman Under 23 Should Not Marry EpecUl Cable to Thb Niw York Tl-nsa LONDON, Aug. 9. The action of Miss May Sutton, the ex-champion weft-nan tennis player, breaking her engagement, on the ground that no woman should marry before ahe is 25, has provided the papers here with an excellent subject for nild-Summer discussion, and many interviews on the topic have "wii primed. The most interesting of these is given by the Countess of Cardigan, who was married ln 1858 to Lieut. Gen.

the Earl of Cardigan, hero of Balaklava, and the Earl having died in became, in 1873. the wife of Count de Lancaetre Saldanha. As Count Lan- castre died in 1808.

At least girls did not wnen i was young. It is all very ro mantic and charming at 18, but no girl really knows the heart of man until she is in her twenties.

A man at i is 48 in experience, and how can a scuooiroom beauty permanently de pose the adorable she who has filled the happy youthful years of this man's life? "Cynics scoff at these turned down pages, but. believe me, they are the most sacred of any. The perfect mar riage comes when after years ef disappointment the man meets the one woman who gently knits up his lost ideas and bids him forget. Not that forgetting brings happiness, but It brings repose. I married the most chivalrous and popular hero of the Crimean war.

had known him when a mere girl, and my girlhood's admiration gradually ripened into love. Lord Cardigan never disappointed me. I waa no longer intense, but with loss of the first glamour xt youth there came the appreciation of maturity. I could recognize the salient points of a man far more than ever, could Judge them from the crit ical standpoint of a girl who has noth ing to forgive. My advice is, never marry too young.

The chain of love becomes in tolerable when it is hampered with links of doubt and disillusion which cling round a later love. Far better it is to meet on common ground as mutual sympathizers, each eager to forgive the others faults ana say let us begin again, than to begin hoping and live unsatisfied." SEIZE BAD-BILLMAKING PLANT Monta's Alleged Partner In Counter- felting of $1 Certificates Also Caught. Nicholas Monta, who is charged with having attempted to pass a one-dollar counterfeit sliver certificate on Frank Rosner, a storekeeper on the lower east side, was held in $1,1100 ball by Commis sioner Shields yesterday for examination to-morrow. Secret Service Agent Fred M. Tate, who makes the charges, says Monta is a follower of Emmanuel Nlnger, the pen and Ink false blllmaker, who operated for eighteen years before he was finally trapned by Secret Service detect ives.

Ninger's bills were executed with great skill, while Monta's were clumsily made. After his commitment to the Tombs Monta made a statement in which he admitted that he was not alone In the pro duction of bills. He explained that while the certificates appeared to nave been made by pen and ink." that plates had been used in the early stages of their manufacture. Acting on hla information Secret Service Agents Tate and Thomas yesterday afternoon visited a furnished room at 21X5 Kaat 117th Street, where they found a young Roumanian namea jonn C'lceiu, who first denied all knowledge of Monta. The detectives searched the apartment and discovered a small hand press, leaden plates, ana -aoout twenty counterfeit ell ver certificates in various stages of macu fac-ture.

After this discovery Cicelu admitted that he was Monta's partner, and he also waa arraigned and held for. ex amination on Wednesday. Obituary Notes.
