BARING BATTLESHIP
' HAVANA, Juno 10. Tho big
pumps (hat are sucking (liu water out
of thocofj'eidaiu around tho battle
bhip Maine have been set in notion.
It was expected by tho engineers in
cliargo that by night tho ai'terdcel;
and port turret of tho sunken battle
bhip would bo exposed to view, A
superficial examination will he made
when the pumping stops, and the en
gineers bejiovo that tho feasibility of
their plan for cutting off the forward
part of tho hull and lifting jt out
pieco by piece can bo dolcrmiuo'd. The
plim that tho engineers now hold is
lo build a bulkhead across the .after
jmrt of tho hull, float it, tow il to
Casu Ultmon Bay, strip it of gnus and
valuables iiiid later lake it out to net
and fcink it.
After an Immediate suet iss In Lon
don, Miss Robson returns to until
fcer engagement here. The play has
had an extraordinary run for over
two years repeating the production
several times, in the larger cities, aiyl
always with success. Tho play is ox-
'rcmely funny and yet not bolstorous.
nor filled with hackneyed material.
May Robson Is a surprise In this
quaint character of the old maid, her
jomedy Is most winning, and the Im
personation Is one of the most pleas
ing to all who appreciate fine act
ing. Miss Robson's work 13 the out
come of a thoughtful study, so per
ectly does She delineate the dear old
ady from New England. There arc
no dull moments during the action of
he story, and but little pathos and
ihat only a shadow of a memory or
lost love but it Is enough. The rest
Is fun pure, wholesomo fun.
The character Impersonated by
'Miss Robson Is a tpe of a New Eng
land wonian7 a sweet old lady whose
heart goes out In all fullness of love
for her wayward nephew, and gen
erous to all whom sua likes, and is
never so contented as when In the
i company of young people, alio enters
Into tho spirit of their humor and Is
'quite willing to go anywhere. She
takes In tho theaters and roof gar-
jdens, dinners at a fashionable hotel,
j learns to smoke nn occasional cigar
ette and sip at an oyster cocktail.'
' Miss Robson docs these things Just
as a real "Aunt Mary" might Imu-
'done them and sinks her Identity Into
tho character. There Is nothing im-
1 probable In the story, nor Is there
any attempt at coarse humor. It ts
one of those stmplo plays that re-
1 freshes and never wearies, and cer
tainly no one will ever tire of Miss
Robson. She comes to the Medford
'tomorrow night. Seats now selling.
