THE SUN, BALTIMORE, SUNDAY MORNING, AUGUST 18, 1907. GAYETY'S SEASON OPENS Crowded House Greets The First Performance Of Burlesquers. VAUDEVILLE ACTS PLEASING Audience Enthusiastic At ThreeAct Performance--Many Improvements To. Theatre. The Gayety opened its season last night with the Bowery Burlesquers, which proved an exceptionally strong aggregation, and pleased every minute the curtain was up.

With what little renovation was necessary, the theatre presented a neat and comfortable appearance, and the comfort was added to much by the play of numerous electric fans, which kept the air in circulation. The lighting facilities have also been rearranged and increased considerably, the most noticeable of which are the new clusters on each of the six private boxes. New carpets and rugs, together with the retouching of the entire house, adds to the pleasing effectiveness. A new idea of arranging the show in three acts, Intermingling the vaudeville program through the acts, seemed to take, as it keeps the audience in expectation and does away with the repetition of similar numbers, which often proves tiresome. None of the three acts seemed to have any aim other than to introduce the array of good funmakers and a pleasing chorus that was effectively costumed and was kept much in evidence.

The leading comedians were Ben Jansen, Harry Kohler, Mike Kelly, Neely Limbach and Harry Hills. The leaders in the choruses were Clara Douglas, Gertie Hart, Ida Boyton and Anna Stein. All of the vaudeville numbers proved attractive, the most popular being the two Racketts in "Fritz in Full Dress," which is brim full of life. The act has been seen here several times, and is one of the funniest offerings in vaudeville. Arthur and Ethel Miller proved a novelty in their whirlwind dances, executing some startling maneuvers.

Carmelita d'Elcedere, a "Parisian novelty sensation," was seen in picturesque poses, assisted by colored lights. Ben- Jansen and "his broder" caught the house with their act, introducing parodies. As everybody seems to enjoy a good tumbling and acrobatic act, the Donenzetta troupe came in for their share of applause. In all three of the acts the musical numbers were very and cleverly rendered. The same program will be repeated during the coming week.

BLANEY'S OPENS TOMORROW "It's Never Too Late To Mend," Teaches The Melodrama. Blaney's Theatre will for the season tomorrow with Owen Davis' latest melodrama, "It's Never Too Late Mend."

HAD OUTING AT MIDDLE RIVER Employes Of John Turnbull, Co. Compete For Prizes.

The employes of John Turnbull held their annual outing yesterday at Eiler's Park, Middle river. The party chartered a special car, which left Howard and Franklin streets at 1 P. M. A spirit of fun and good cheer soon developed, and every one in the party entered into the jollification with much enthusiasm. Every employe of the company was on hand.

Each of them wore new white hats of the same pattern and blue badges. Mr. H. Agaston, one of the employes, entertained the party with his magical performances and sleight-of-hand tricks. He was ably assisted by Mr.

Anthony Kreiger. Dressed in fantastic colors, their antics were amusing enough to make the most prosaic laugh. On reaching the grounds the party paraded to the park, being led by Mr. B. Schifferderker, who was dressed as a drum major.

An elaborate luncheon was served, which was relished as only working men can enjoy a meal. The athletic carnival was held after the feast. The baseball game between the married and single men was productive of much fun. Some sensational running and basesliding was executed. While attempting to catch a fly in deep center Frank Kreiger caught a large bumblebee by mistake, and, in his distress, took to the woods.

This calamity almost broke up the game. As darkness approached Frank Paul stole both the second and third bases, and he was in the act of stealing the home plate when his theft was detected. The excitement caused by this robbery broke up the game, which stood 6 to 5 in favor of the single men. The sack race was won by Mr. Sidney Bollinger in record time.

After the prize was, awarded it was found he had kicked a hole through the bag. Mr. Charles Hoffman threw all comers in the wrestling match. In the pie-eating contest, Mr. A.

Clautice, after eating six pies more than his closest competitor, called for more pie. Mr. William Doyle won the high jump in attempting to get a large plum. The married men pulled the single men all over the park in the tug of war. A novel potate race was held.

It was decided that the prize should go to the man who first discovered a potato patch. The men went scurrying in all directions, but most of them never got any farther than a watermelon patch. Mr. Nelson Lynch was given the prize. A bugle was sounded and the multitude gathered again for dinner.

Mr. M. H. Caler was toastmaster and Messrs. Potts, Pitts, Rochester, Winters, Schmidt and McCauley responded to toasts.

Most of them were too full for utterance. Among those present were: Messrs. Nass, Birmingham, Algire, Ruly, Frohwitter, Rochester, Lynch, Stikel, Stinner, Herman, Reitz, Hoffman, Whitney. Mensel, Smith, Deicke, Wilkes, Johnson, Krauss, Wenzing, Nitsch, BIG LABOR LEADERS COMING Messrs. Gompers And Mitchell To Attend Indian Club Feast.

The crab feast of the Indian Club, the biggest social event in the calendar of organized labor of the city, except, of course, the Labor Day celebration, will be held today at Acme Shore, Bear creek. Pr.esident Samuel Gompers, of the Amerlcan Federation of Labor, and President John Mitchell, of the Mine Workers, are expected to be present, as well as other officials of the executive committee of the American Federation of Labor, will hold a meeting tomorrow at Washington. ON MARYLAND SOIL Troop A Back In Old Line State After Long a Staff Boyds, Aug. seven days of sleeping in blankets, eating from tin mess kits, hard riding, dancing and festivities Troop A re-entered Maryland after having ridden 100 miles through three States, and started on the last leg of Its practice march. Camp was pitched tonight at Dawsonville, near Boyds.

The troopers made Leesburg late last and camped at the fair grounds outnight side of town. Because of the late hour there was no attempt to pitch tents or to cook supper. Instead busses were hired and the men hustled into town, where they were fed at a restaurant, Returning without any attempt at sightseeing the men entered the stables and, wrapped in their blankets, dropped "dog tired" beside their horses. this morning the men again returned to the town, broke their fast, and, returning, saddled, rode through the town on their to White's ferry, where they crossed way the Potomac, passed through several small villages and camped in Montgomery county. Tomorrow they will reach Oakdale' in the afternoon and be the guests of Governor and Mrs.

Warfield. Monday afternoon they will reach home and solid comfort. While the boys at the fair grounds were "hunching up" in bed on their mounts in the stalls Governor Warfield, who is "roughing it" with them, was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. E.

B. White at Selma, where the famous. Mason-McCarty duel was fought. Neither the troop nor officers saw him after he rode ahead at lunchtime yesterday until late today, when he picked them up not far from the ferry. At Mr.

White's last night those making up the supper party, in addition to the Governor, were Col. J. H. Alexander, R. H.

Lynn, of Washington; Charles P. and Gordon Janney and the Misses White. This morning the Governor was driven to the one-time home of Governor Swann, of Maryland, and later to the Peoples' National Bank, of which Mr. White is president, and there held an early morning levee. Many Virginian farmers remarked upon his likeness to the late Fitzhugh Lee and the Governor expressed himself flattered and discussed farms and farming.

He was invited to return for the fair and racing meet of the Loudoun Racing Association In September and agreed to be present, if possible. The Governor was also driven past the Ball's Bluff battlefield. The Governor, upon his arrival at Dawsonville, failed to find many people in the town, owing to the fact that many had gone to Boyds to see a baseball The first visit Governor Warfleld made was upon Mrs. Margaret Allnutt, mother of Mr. Lawrence Allnutt, who was a delegate to the State convention that nominated the Governor.

At Poolesville he visited Dr. Edward Wooton, a former State Senator from Montgomery county. Friends and relatives at home have little Idea of what the troopers have been through. Waking early in the morning, before the sun is up, the men are stiff and sore from riding and the chill of dew. For the first mile the aches are painful until finally ridden out.

Later the heat becomes oppressive, and the horses' hoofs send up stifling clouds of dust, or the rain pours down. For a while the ride becomes monotonous, broken only by the splashing of the mounts through some small stream. Next a stop will be made, cinches tightened and a few minutes' chat enjoyed. The troopers' minds turn to recollections of the past--the good times at Westminster, the jollity of the farmers' picnic at Buckeystown or the festivities at Charlestown, where the boys still wish they had spent a second day, according to the original plans. From the past realities of the present bob up, and the "jog, jog, jog" again becomes monotonous, until someone is cracked on the head with a green apple or Trooper Hoffman sticks the point of his saber in the ribs of the hostler, J.

McCulloh, which makes him lose balance and fall, vowing vengeance, from the ambulance step. Then comes a laugh, and all is merry once more and thoughts flit to the future. The Irish Quartermaster-Sergeant Hanrahan, who spent 20 years in the regular army and who has been disciplined the last few days by the boys because he had insisted upon calling them 'bloody, bloom1ng, paper-collar dudes," received another surprise today when he perked up momentarily aid said something about a "collarbutton brigade." The words had hardly passed his lips before there was a signal and the following song, composed in his honor, was shouted Er'rybody works but Sergeant, Who swears the livelong day, Cussing the "bloody troopers" In his bullying way. Blooming Captain swelters, Trooper licks his pan; Ey'rybody works at our camp But Han-ra-han! OBITUARY MRS. MARY C.

ful consideration of the work done at the range for the last six weeks by each candidate for a place, and while the team as published has not had an opportunity to shoot together as a team as often as is really necessary, the weeks of practice shooting that they will have at Camp Perry before the great team match is started will undoubtedly put them in shape to make a good showing. At skirmish firing this team is stronger than any other ever sent out of the State and at the long ranges the percentages have. been higher than ever before, so that it is at all impossible for them to secure a place in the first 10 teams, where last year the State team finished in the second 10.

Wright, of Boston, ON THE BOWLING ALLEYS Mandler's Duckpin League. The outlook for a successful winter league at Mandler's alleys is at present very bright. Six teams are assured, and a meeting of the captains will be shortly called so they may register the names of their prospective players with the manager of the alleys, Mr. Gustav Homrighausen. Last season many of Baltimore's best bowlers took part in the league games, and the race for first honors was close, the result being decided at the last meeting of the teams occupying first and second places.

Already the names of many of Baltimore's best bowlers are on the list, and the captains are earnestly rounding up all the players who desire to become members of the Mandler League. At a meeting of the captains it is expected to regulate the by-laws and rules so will that be teams will be able to adjust their men. It almost impossible in this case to have forfeitures, and there will always be a fight for the top honors, instead of having the first place handed out because some teams fail to roll. Good Scoring By Ladies. Dispatch to the Baltimore Blue Mountain, Aug.

MeLean, ROBERT FULTON HONORED Many Whistles Blown On Centennial Of First Steamer. NEW YORK OBSERVANCE NOISY Event Also Celebrated Among The Shipping In Baltimore Many Vessels Gay With Bunting. Dispatch to the Baltimore New York, Aug. of craft whistled shrilly and long at precisely 1 o'clock this afternoon and continued at it for 30 seconds with throttles open wide in honor of the centennial of that day, when the first steamboat, the invention of Robert Fulton, made her maiden trip on the Hudson river. The Clermont began slow journey up the Hudson at the rate of four miles an hour on August 17, 1807.

She was a sidewheel steamboat and, compared with the ocean leviathans which lay at their piers, and the swift Monmouth and the stately sound boats and the busy tugs, all of which joined in paying tribute to the memory of the discoverer of a new means of navigation, she was only a rudimentary study. The Clermont traveled to Albany in 36 hours, and each passenger paid $7 for the privilege of being aboard. Members of the Robert Fulton Memorial Association, at the hour when the brazenthroated salutes were being given, left for a trip on a Hudson river steamboat of the day line. The band played the air of "Bonnie Doon," which was Robert Fulton's favorite son, and all the way up stream could be heard the refrain, which was taken up by every craft which carried musicians. Among those who went up the river were Robert Fulton Ludlow, a grandson of the inventor; Mrs.

Ludlow, Col. H. 0. S. Heistand, chairman of the executive committee of the Robert Fulton Memorial Association, and H.

N. Dearborn, its assistant secretary. Preparations are being made for an elaborate celebration of the centennial at the Jamestown Exposition' on September 23, when there will be a military parade under the command of Frederick Dent Grant, commander of the Department of the East, and also a naval review. Connected with the observation today was the unfurling of the largest United States flag in existence. It was flung to the breeze from the top of the tower of the Singer Building, 500 feet above the level of the curb.

It is the property of the League of Peace, and it was first displayed in 1893, at the time of the Columbian Exposition, where, floating from a staff at Atlantic Highlands, it was greeted by forelgn men Observed In Baltimore. The deep sirens of oceangoing ships, the shriller blasts of steamboats and tugs, and even the chirpy pipe of the gasoline launches, all combined yesterday to rend the atmosphere in honor of Robert Fulton, who made himself famous by successfully operating the first steamboat, It was 1 o'clock in the afternoon that the first whistle, loud and prolonged, started the noisy celebration. Every American vessel in the harbor took up the whistling, and for many minutes the noise was deafening. Not only did the vessels blow their whistles in acknowledgement of Fulton's fame, but they were dressed in their gayest bunting as well. The Light street fleet had all its flags flying from the many flag staffs, tugs flew flags from sooty masts, and gasoline launches, which it is a pretty safe bet to make were never dreamed of by Fulton, showed strips of bunting.

The steamer Porto Rico, of the New York and Baltimore Transportation Line, and the Baltimore and Carolina steamer George Weems were both gay with colors, the brilliant hued flags of the international signal code fluttered from halyards strung from both trucks. As a matter of fact the first steamboat was invented by a Marylander James Rumsey, of Cecil county. He built a steam vessel and it proved successful at its trial on the Potomas river. That was 22 years before Fulton's Clermont attracted the attention of the world.

The reached the Mexican capital. There Owens caused a sensation by appealing to the police to locate his "wife," who had deserted him. It was said that she had decided to leave on account of his insane jealousy.

A few days later she went to Oklahoma City, and on the same train was Frank Ballard, an American hotelkeeper of Mexico City, at whose hotel the couple had stopped. Owens started in pursuit, asserting that Ballard had induced Mrs. Tucker to leave him. He wired the police authorities of Oklahoma City to place the couple under arrest on a charge of smuggling. Owens charged Ballard with having stolen a revolver from him and was himself placed in jail for threatening the woman.

Mrs. Tucker and Ballard were released. Owens finally got out of jail, and followed the object of his infatuation. He effected a reconciliation with her on a train going to St. Louis, but they again separated.

Owens was about 48 years old and was born in Wales. He traveled in many parts of the world and was in South Africa ing the first Boer War in 1881. He came to this country about the time of the Jameson raid, in 1895, and worked on newspapers in a number of cities until he finally located in Cincinnati, where he was employed as a writer until his elopement with Mrs. Tucker.

SWIMMER PICKED UP AT SEA Went Out For Midnight Bath And Was Supposed To Have Drowned. New York, Aug.

remarkable story of a man who went for a swim, disappeared and, naturally, was supposed to have drowned, and who now turns up at sea aboard a steamer, developed today. Edward Hugo Colell, a well-known real estate dealer, of Brooklyn, disappeared from his summer home at Rockaway Park at midnight last Tuesday. He had started out for a swim and it was feared that he had been drowned. A wireless message was received by his family last night from the steamer Huron, a southbound Clyde liner, saying that he was on board that vessel. How he got there is at present a mystery.

According to Mr. Colell's family he had been in the habit for years of taking a bath in the surf late, every night. When he left the house Tuesday night for the shore he wore only a bathrobe, an overcoat and a pair of slippers. This apparel was found the next morning on the beach and search has been made ever since for his body. Colell was a strong swimmer and his family and friends believe, therefore, that he was carried out to sea by a strong tide and managed to keep afloat until picked up by the steamer.

A feat of seamship and nicety of the eye was performed last Monday when the six-masted schooner Dorothy B. Barrett docked herself at Port Covington. The big long-legged schooner went alongside the coal dock so easily and nicely that not even an eggshell would have been crushed.

Capt. W. M. Ervin, commander of the vessel, steered her himself. He had made arrangements with a tugboat at the entrance of the Port Covington channel to dock the schooner, but another tug was sent him.

Meanwhile, before the tug arrived the Barrett was sailing up the channel, and Captain Ervin saw that it was either anchor and take the chance of going aground on the edge of the narrow channel or sail into the dock. He chose the latter alternative, and with himself at the wheel steered her, after sails had been hauled down, in to the dock. Repairs To Damaged Vessels.
