“There was a young woman from Rye
With a form like a Capital I
She said; ‘It's too bad.
But then I can pad! ’
Which shows yon how figures can lie’’, i
The foregoing Limerick by Col. Yar-
ker in the first act of the d elightfu
comedy that will be produced by the
G. M. O. Players’ Club, next Friday 1
night, is pointed enough to excite the |
risibilities of any audience.
But when “The Hon, Francis Feather- -
weight Spalding’’, who, true to his;
English instincts, sees the point only!
after the other gentlemen have exploded
with laughter, undertakes to repeat the
limerick to the ladies, a few minutes |
later—the humor of the situation will
strike tlie andience W’ith the force of a
broadside from a modern battleship.
The "Honorable Francis” becomes so
badly obfuscated in his efforts to repro
duce the Limenck, that the other
characters come to his rescue in a new
and up-to-date version—thus:
“France-;—There—aw—was a young
woman from aw—"Kew”—
Teddy -With a form like an invented j
“U”
Billy—“It’s no disgrace’’,
She said: “1 can lace.”
Gordon—And—er—she divided her j
figure in two’’.

ealities’’ with which the play abounds.

When the postofiice officials arrived
the next morning the only evidence that
vistors had entered the office was two
small drill holes about half an inch in
diameter on the face of eatfh vault. Fay
had attended to his eastern “interests"
in an exceedingly clever manner.
Postoftice inspectors got wind of the

trunks had been shipped for New York
early in the morning. They followed
this clue. They traced one trunk to the
Grand Central station in New York,
where they nabbed Fay and his pal
when they tried to claim it.
In this trunk was $30 000 in stamps
Other trunks were also found and all of
the stamps were reovered except $17,000
worth. The trunks contained the finest
set of burglars’ tools that the New York
police ever saw. They were encased in
