Tho most exclusive audience of tho season gathered InRt night at St. Luke's parish hall to hear Marshall Darruch, thn renowned Shakespearean scholar and reader, In tecltnl. Much hail been expected ot this en tertainment, as Mr. Darrach's reputa tion Is such that his partlcuar Inter pretation of the great dramatist Is cer talti to Interest the most critical stu dent, as well as the listener who merely wishes tube entertained. He Is richly endowed In voice, physique and grace of gesture to picture the most Intricate Plot. Mr. Darrach's repertoire laBt night Included many characters from "The Merchant of Venice." The monologlst must always labor at a certain disad vantage In the absence ot tho effective accessories f costume, stage setting and varied personnel In the play ns It Is fumlllar to the average theatre-goer, but Mr. Darrach had proceeded with few lines berore the stately Venetian age seemed to stretch far before tho audience and almost tho Palace of tho Dogeo, the Ptnzxettn, the black-prowed gondolas appeared in fancy's mirror. It needed not tho red gleam of Por tia's cap and gown, the slashed velvets and satins of the distant period to brliis It very near, for the entertainer of the evening- made this gem of all the lighter plays of Shakespeare a series of brilliant pictures. Perhaps his greatest Impersonation Is that of Shylock. He makes no bur lesque of the role, but lifts It to the dignity which only now and then It J has attained at the hands ot u great aitor. Antonio was wonderfully Well por trayed. Mr. Darrach's line personality seeming specially adapted to the char acter. His work In the casket scene was delicate and fascinating In Its deft grace, while tho brilliance of the court scene In the swift changes of personnel wna a revelation of art Interpreted by true genius. The stage settings lust night were tasteful and beautiful. These were con tributed through the courtesy of Mrs. H. M. Boles. Mrs. AV. T. Smith and the linn of Hill & Connoll. Miss Hortensu Van Courlander, who has been so active In promoting the in terests of tho recital, is to be congratu lated for her success. AN EXCITING RUNAWAY. Major Millar's Horse Made a Lively Dash Up Lackawanna Avenue as Parade Was Dispersing. There was a most exciting runaway on Lackawanna, avenue yesterday af ternoon, Just as the llremen's parade was being dismissed. Major W. S. Mil lar, Grand Marshal Hlckey's chief of staff, was mounted on a spirited horse owned by Lieutenant Colonel C. C. Mattes and when the head of the dis solving body was at Lackawanna unit Pcnn avenues the horse took tho bit between his teeth and dashed up the avenue, which was crowded with peo ple from curb to curb. Major Millar Is a dashing- and ex perienced horseman and ho did his utmost to subdue the fractious horse, at the same time skilfully guiding tho animal so ns not to Injure any one. Ho was successful until he reached the First National bank. At that point Anna Kllcullon, an eleven-year-old girl, who lives on Mer idian street, dashed directly In front ot the horse nnd was knocked down and trampled upon by the horse. A few yards further on Major Millar was thrown from the horse, but ho resolutely clung to the bridle and, al though dragged along tho pavement, retained his grasp and succeeded In stopping the horse at Fritz's harness store, in the middle of the block be tween Wyoming and Washington ave nues. After the girl wa3 run down she lay on the pavement In a seml-unconsclous condition and It was at first supposed she was dead. Great excitement fol lowed. As soon as Major Millar stopped the horse, notwithstanding that he was badly hurt himself, his first thought was of tho little girl. He had her taken into Dr. X. Y. Leet's office, where it was ascertained that she had no bones broken, but had sustained a number ot painful bruises. Major Millar sent her home in a carriage In care of Dr. Leet, and directed that she receive every pos sible attention at his expense. Tho major then went to his office, where he ascertained that he Is a mass ot bruises and contusions from head to foot. His right arm Is quite seriously hurt. ARCH WAS SET ON TIRE. Pretty Spectacle at Wyoming Ave nue and Mulberry Street. About S.30 o'clock last night some one sot lire to the evergreen arch at Wyoming avenue and Mulberry street. The pine and the wooden frame work to which It was attached biased fur iously for a few minutes and made a pretty spectacle. Word was sent to the Crystal Hose house on Linden street and the com pany and Its hose wagon made a quick run to tho blazing arch and extin guished the flame with chemhals Tho beauty ot the arch has been greatly marred, however. Realistic Production. Connolly & Wallace deserve credit for a most remrakablo reproduction of a fire scene In one of their large show windows on Washington avenue. It pictures a small brick building on fire on tho Inside, a fireman stands at ono of tho windows with a hose, while an other ascends a ladder to the roof, which Is made of burned boards; through the broken panes of glass a firemen Is heroically saving the con tents of the fated building. Tho burned curtains and carpets, broken glass and furniture on the grass un der the windows, tho red lights with in the building, the gravel paths and trees, complete the most realistic win dow scene ever reproduced In Scranton.
