PARK THEATRE. THANKSGIVING—MY SON BEN. One of the most powerful and effec- 1 tive climaxes is that which closes the first act of "My Son Ben." In this act Ike, a comrade of Ben, Farmer Thorpe's son, quarrels with his bene factor, Ben. over a lady whose prefer ance for Ben is strongly marked. The lady extracts a promise from her lover not to fight with Ike, who taunts him with cowardice. Ike falls into a torrent that serves as a water sluice, and at the risk of his life Ben rescues him. "THE GIRL FROM CHILI", DEC. 4. "The Girl from Chili" is a bright and entertaining play with a cleverly devised plot, plenty of .action and numerous mirth provoking scenes. Theplotshows orginality of invention and a marvel ously skillful handling of the many complications evolved. Fitz and Web ster have surrounded Miss Mayme Chil dress, who appears in the title role, with a capable company and permits them to display their talents without the restraint which is too often imposed in the selfish and short sighted policy of stellar ag grandizment. As » connoquence, amusement lovers see an evenly excel lent entertainment. O'BRIEN THE CONTRACTOR, DEC. 0. Daniel Sully, the famous Irish-Ameri can actor, will appear in his truthful crea tion "O'Brien, the Contractor". The play hinges on the scheming of thiee financiers to defeat the completion of a piece of railroad which a poor Irish con tractor is pushing through and which is to make him rich. Failing to make any headway by fair means, they resort to trickery and deceit. They succeeded in winning over the Italian laborers but they fail to induce the Irishmen to be tray their employer and join the plot. The arrival of O'Brien disguised, his passionate pleading to the men to stand by O'Brien, the contractor, has the de sired result: the men return to work. The final blast is made—the rails nailed to the ties—the road bed of rock and dirt hastily thrown in place—the "gold en spike" produced and finally driven home —complete the most natural, truthful and exciting scents ever placed upon a stage.

"The Wife" is one of the first of the Belasco plays that has been seen in Pittsburg in some time, and its revival should, therefore, be , something of a novelty. Belasco & De- Mille together wrote many famous plays, and during the life of the latter it was always said that Belasco was the 1 constructor and DeMille the writer, but since DeMille's death Belasco has con ' continued his wonderful success, pro ducing "The Heart of Maryland" and later "Raza" with Mrs. Leslie Carter in the title role.

The trial of the suit in trespass, for $200,000 damages, brought by the city of Pittsburg against Senator Willtam Flinn, ex-City Attorney W. C. More land, ex Assistant City Attorney W. H. House, J. J. Booth and Booth & Flinn. was called before Judge J. W. F. White, president judge of Common Pleas Court No. 2, of Allegheny Co.. Monday morning.
