The film operator reported that his room in the hotel where the pictures were T' ; had been broken into and the films stolen. The theft is being vig orously denounced as an attempt to h He publicity for the cause of the miners. Representative members of the cit izens’ organization to-day declared that the Western Federation of Min ers' agents would be driven out of the Calumet region, and that Charles H.

The inquest proceeded to-day and just before Attorney O. X.

Miss Macvane, Once Trailed as Spy, Has Just One Adventure After Another, TARANTA. ITALY, Dec. 30.—Life in sunny Italy is, to Miss Dorothy Alastair Macvane, just one adveiiture after another. She is to-day frying to straighten out her difficulties with a man whom she accuses of black mail, as well as trying to recover her! furs and jewels from a manager who | has attached them. This unpleasant experience closely j follows the surveillance of the Italian ' authorities, who suspected Miss Mac- j vane of being a spy, ancl that followed ; other events with managers and oth ers that stretch out ‘over the ten years since Miss Macvane left the j classic shades of Harvard to go in the j chorus of comic opera, whence she 1 gravitated to the position of a star | of real opera. Miss Macvane is the daughter of i Professor Silas M. Macvane, of liar- ! yard, who is in Europe on indefinite j leave with his daughters—Edith, who writes; Emily, who is the wife of Baron DePlacy, a French army offi cer, and Dorothea, who is occupying much attention in Italy on account of j her present and recent troubles. Rose From the Chorus. Dorothea Macvane went rapidly 1 from the chorus to the main dressing ! room and the leading role. She was I a gay and light-hearted young re- ; cruit when, in 1904, her chum, Lillian I Carleton, cabled that she had mar ried William P. Orr and got back the message. “Lil, you're a fool.’’ Then she settled down and began to study in Paris. She learned parts for j ’ Lucia.” “Traviata.” ‘Don PaSquale,” “Rigoletto” and ‘‘Bpheme,’ and made ( her debut in Rome. As a singer she ! was well received, and w’hen an Ital- | ian manager made some remark about the inability of Americans to live up to their contracts she got out of bed and carried a case of typhoid fever, I temperature 108. to the opera house, i where she sang Mimi in “La Bo- heme” under the intense strain of; her illDess. That game bit of work gave he% much notice. A few weeks ago she went to Ta- ranta to fill an engagement at an opera house. Taranta does not boast any metropolitan prices, and the na- I vai officers wondered how a woman singing in an opera that could not possibly pay any large wages etfuld afford diamonds, furs and other things that a real French maid kept in shape for Miss Macvane. Charges Blackmail Plot. So they concluded that she was a spy. making photographs of the masked fortifications at Taranta and Brindisi for the Russian Government. It took a protest from Thomas Nelson Page. American Ambassador, to free her from this annoyance, and then came the troublp with her Taranta manager. He claimed that she had broken her contract with him, and at tached her furs and jewels. Miss Macvane charges that an Ital ian journalist came to her and de manded $2,000 for the suppression of a defamatory article based upon this new turn of affairs, and she asked for his arrest.

By TARLETQ^ COLLIER. After due consultation with Alice, ulio took the Wonderland trip: Mademoiselle Cinderella, expert on tile metamorphosis of pumpkins and mice, and Reanstalk Jack, Die aerial climber, one is able to announce au thoritatively that "The Hiue Bird is an eminently worthy fairy tale. And after a searching conference WI 1 i.vour own heart you can say confidently that there is a poignant something in Maeterlinck's fantasy lu* . ma J <es it .transcendent beyond the frivol of fairy stories. The performance of "The Blue told at the Atlanta Monday night was an entertainment refreshing aft er a. season of hectic melodramas and shopworn musical comedies. The surprisingly large audience seemed to enjoy being told things about life and death and home happiness which even if questionable from the view point of the American Association for the Advancement .of Science.

The tempered fatalism of .Via-- terlinck s philosophy was apparent to even the dullest perception. The story of "The Rlue Bird," how Mityl and Tyltyl go forth in search of the blue bird of happiness, accom panied by the embodied spirits of the household articles, is pretty well known. Burford Hampden and Edi- tha Kelly, as tile two children, are ambitious youngsters, but fall a bit short non and then of realistic in terpretation of child emotion umCr stress. They have fanciful adventure-. Stars and fairies and the Hours and the Happiness—all of whom are fan tastically clad maidens of consider able beauty—surround (hem at every turn. It is fitting that the women of the company should be beautiful. Everywhere there are children, some of them very tiny tots. ,The tiniest ones were the greatest favor ites of the audience, who vowed audi bly that they were indeed cute. "The Blue Bird" will be at the At lanta Theater all week, with mati nees New Year's bay and Satirfflav Forsyth Bill of Exceptional Merit. “Neptune’s Garden.” the feature uf the week's bill at the Forsyth Theater, is all it was proclaimed—a speetae«i- lar pantomimic illusion. Its story in terpreted In dancing and lugubrious music, with marble white staues that come to life at every shriek of a har assed maiden, and that dive with all the precision of a Piedmont Park champion into a pool yawning at cen ter stage. And having dived, the charming Galateas remain under the water. Hence the illusion. Of course, there is an answer, ur what's the use of explaining a per- fe< tly good mystery that otherwise will mystify an entire week of audi ences. It is enough to say that tills top-notch act of the week’s show is about the most elaborate feat tha local vaudeville has known—elaborate and pretty in every detail, particu larly In the grace and intrepidity with which the shapely Nereids dive! The bill for New Year's week wel : deserves the crowds that poured into the theater at two performances Mon day, rain Monday, jamming the foy er until even standing room was at a premium. For one thing there is enough of good dancing for once. Besides the terpischorean element in the pool spec tacle there are the Gliding O’Meara -, whilqm instructors of society in the newest steps, and George M< Ka> and Ottie Ardine, who interpolate a few unique dames in their entertain ing skteh, "On Broadway.” the name, XMAS RATES Reduced over N., C. & St. L.

What is intended Shall be a sea son of high-class stock, giving At lanta Opportunity to see interpreted by a splendid company the. best plags obtainable, was opened auspiciously at the Lyric Monday night when Norman Hackett and his capable players presented The Double De ceiver." an entertaining comedy-dra ma founded on O. Henry’s famous ^.fnrv A Double-Dyed Deceiver.” Mr. Hackett was not greeted with deserved attendance, by any means, but many of his old friends were present, and he was given a very cqt- dial reception. The presence 9 the cast of Mrs. Ransom Wright, the tal ented society actress, and a leader in Hie Atlanta Flayers’ t’lub, added to the interest of the opening perform ance. There were curtain calls, of course, the usual boquets. and even a little speech by Mr Hackett. air of which helped make the occasion more or less happy. “The Double Deceiver” never was destined to become a raging dramatic lilt, but it is made fairly likeable by the splendid work of .Mr Hackett and his associates. Extremely pretty stage settings also aid materially. Mr. Hackett has a role that suits him admirably. Miss Ilka-Marie Diehl, a- the sweetheart, has much talent.
