has spent considerable time and gone
to a great amount of trouble to secure
good principals andaj, good chorus.

Friday and Saturday there will be at

which will take over the houae the lat

turning from the tour to be installed
in a new theatre which will be erected
In the down-town district on some loca
tion not yet decided upon. Manager
Baker said last . week that there Is a
possibility of these plsns being changed
enough to 8ndrhe Bakerttes to the"l
Helllg nd; place- ths road shows 1rr the
new house. However, this has not been
definitely decided. The new theatre,
local managers say, Is no hallucination,
but is absolutely assured.
Within the next four weeks there is
to come to the Hellla; Nat Goodwin.
Henrietta Cragsman will also appear in
several of her moet notable productions,
and "The Land of Nod" Is billed' for
three nights and a matinee. These pro
ductions will cause the comlo opera
stock to be discontinued for the nights
they are In the city.
The general public perhaps. Is una
ware of the great amount of work incl-dnt-to
the production of a play like
"The Eternal City," which is being put
on by the Baker-Stock company-this
week. It means hard work for. the
members of the cast, a great deal of
work for the-sreire-painterSr-unUmlted
labor on the part of the stage manager,
and the drilling of a number of "su
pers," most of whom are bard to. drill.
The lines of such a play are difficult
to learn, and yet they must be mem
orised by the actors while they are pro
ducing another play.- Last week the
Bakerltea rehearsed every morning,
studied every afternoon, gave a differ
ent production In tone and spirit in the
evenings, and got their sleep and their
meals whenever they got a -chance. Tet
It Is safe to aay that when the curtain
of the Baker goes up this afternoon on
the' first scene of "The Eternal City"
everything will move aa amoothly aa

waa sent to serve a life-sentence at

towards regaining his liberty was t
get oh friendly terms with a warder's
wife, a matter which, he complacently v
alleges waa not very difficult, the fact
being that he is a remarkably handsome.
man. Through her he obtained money
from friends in Chicago, where he has
spent a good many years of his-life,
and presently h contrived by means of
th sam friendly agenoy to be ordered,
together with two Other prisoners, from
his cell near the military headquarters
to a spot at tb extreme and of the

th three men escaped to a swamp not

They took it in turns to do the paddling
and to sleep, : Then Guerln noticed that
his two companions would whisper
when they thought he waa asleep, and
ha - noticed also that they were quit
willing to paddle while he reated. He,
kept his ears open, and heard them pTan

of the vessel, gripping his revolver, and
when his companions crept towards him
