About elevenâ€"thirty Monday mornâ€" ing the Highland Park fire departâ€" ment was called to help put out a fire which completely destroyed a large barn on the property owned by George Hield, south of County Line just east of the west line of the Chiâ€" cago & Northwestern railroad. A large barn and three out buildings were burned to the ground due to the fact that water was not available. The local fire department saved one barn with chemicals. Mr. and Mrs. G. Reschke live on the farm. Mrs. Reschke had taken their auto out about oneâ€"half hour before the fire was discovered and had driven to Northbrook. No one ‘was at home when the fire was discovered by moâ€" torists who were passing by the place and saw the flames and smoke. The fire was beyorfd control before it was discovered. Aithough this was out of the terâ€" ritory of the local department, they responded promptly and worked* hard to savg adjoining buildings.

Under ;the title, "The Financier of the Revolution," Mr. H. 0.; Bishop writes in the National Republic of Mr. Morris and says, concerning the reversal of his fortune, due to unwise speculation: "Morris made the mistake of: His: life when he embarked in an orgy: of speculation. A contract to furâ€" nish French merchants with 60,000 hogsheads of tobacco inâ€" 1785, 1786 and 1787,. proved u?fortunate'. | He sent a vessel to China, by way of Australia, which failed to bring ‘him wealth. . He successfully traded in wild land in western New York for a time, and then deqided to conduct similar operations on a large s¢ale, In 1795‘ and 1796 he bought lgrge acreages in various ‘states, and, with his© associates formed â€" the North American Land company.. Their holdâ€" ings, six million acres in all, were located in Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georâ€" gia and Kentucky. 7 "Washington â€" remonstrated â€" with him against going into these enorâ€" mous speculative enterprises at: his advanced age, but he replied that he ¢ould not deal with small things, ‘I must either be a man or a mouse,‘ he declared. . & old "Finally, the crash came, and poor old Robert Morris, in accordance with the law of that time, was obliged to enter a debtor‘s prison on February 16, 1798, and remained until August 296, 1801. It was a trying or,dealg;or a once ‘wealthy man sixtyâ€"four years of age. To a friend he wrote: ‘Starâ€" vation stares me in the face; I have not money enough to buy bread for my family‘ After a few weeks he became reconciled to his fate and ieveni wrote a verse of poetry, and jolqngly‘1 invited a friend to dine with him at‘ ‘the ‘hotel with the grated doors.‘..

Dennis King, who may be rememâ€" bered for his Mercutio in Jane Cowl‘s "Romeo and Juliet," has made a disâ€" tinct hit in the part of Francois Vilâ€" lon. His acting is not only (brilliant but is of the dynamic quality which fits well with the sardonic humor of the poetâ€"thief who was really a great patriot. This young. man has not only unusual ability as an actor, but is a real baritone with that richness an demotional quality in his voice which arrests the attention of the ear. 'Rudolf Friml has written one of the most delightful scores of his caâ€" reer and W. H. Post and Brian Hookâ€" er have contributed a worthy‘ book and lyrics. James Reynolds has deâ€" signed such scenes and ‘costumes that the stage pictures, produces are like glorious paintings come to life. "The Song of the Vagabonds" as sung by Villon and the tavern rabble is so stirring and throbbing with paâ€" triotism. that the audience is almost puulled to its feet in the contagious thrill and excitement of the moment. Other popular songs are "Only a Rose," sung by Berna Deane and Dennis King; "Love for Sale," sung by Frances Halliday; "The Drinking Song"‘ sung by Arthur Deagon. There are 150 people in the cast, ensemble and orchestra. | The following excerpts show what the Chicago dramatic editors think of this gorgeous musical play : Fred Donaghey, Tribune: "The Great Northern is again a good place to goâ€"as a spectacle the ‘ show is rich and satisfying â€" Yes, and last night‘s crowd was cheering when the curtain fell on Part IIL." > Ashton Stevens, Herald & Examâ€" iner:, "There are with us for many months a good cast, an immense chorus that can act, a big and beauâ€" tiful production of: a beautifulâ€" roâ€" mance â€" and~ an / undeniable Dennis King."
