He was an oldlah plan and his ap-

gave the assurance that he was not a
regular theatte- -gocr. His clothing had
seen long service. his linen was not of
the freshest. his shoes were guiitless of
polish. The special policeman at the

him to take his position in the line fl .

he did reach the opening he braced

"MRS. JACK" SATURDAY.
Miss Alice Fischer will present for
the first time here. next Saturday, un-
dcr the direction of Mr. Henry B. liar-
rls. the new farcical comedy. “Mrs.
.Iack." which ran at the commencement
of the present season for one hundred
nights. at Wallack's and the Victoria
Theatres. in New tork. It was written
especially for Miss Fischer. by Miss
Grace Livingston Furnlss. and is said
to abound in witty dialogue. xnlrtb~
provoking situations and irresistibly
fttnny climaxes. “Mrs. Jack." the char-
acter assunlcd by Miss Fischer. is a
generous whole~souled. but unconven-
tional widow from the west, who jour-
neys to New York to take possession
of the ten million dollar real am! per-
sonal estate of her late husband. She
is described by a lurid society papct as ~
a typical woman of the west. a “pie-
handier." a “shooter of biscuits and
buffalo hunter,“ and learning of this
she determines to live up to the des-
cription. She at once installs herself
at the head of her newly acquired Fifth
avenue home. and by her frankness
and lack of conventionality greatly
shocks her husbands fashionable rel~
atives. Mrs. Jack. in reality. is a
warm-hearted. impulsive woman. and
insists on carrying out to the letter
every wish expressed by her late hus-
band. She is undaunted even at the
appearance of a barnatorming trage-
diau with a scheme for a New York
theatre. and he and his hungry friends
are promptly invited to dine at the
Fifth Mobile home. Another legacy
appears in the form of an ex-prizenght-
or. with whom her husband has con-
ducted a unique. but profitable busi-
ness in the restoration of facial ex-
pression. He, too. Is installed among
the impulsive widow's friends. Fun of
a rousing sort is furnished by the com.
plcations brought about by these live
legacies , the climax being reached
when Miss Fischer. for the edlflcation
of society. describes a buffalo httnt in
the streets of Cleveland; In additioa
to its laugh-creating qualities. Mrs.
Jack. in the dramatic climax. which
closes the second act. affords Miss Fis-
cher an opportunity to display her
well-known emotional power.

RENOVATED BUTTER.
Revenue Collector Makes Decision on
Unatamped Butter.
During the past-week Revenue Col-
lector W. F. Kinney has been repeated-
ly salted regarding the disposal of the
renovated butter which agents have
neglected to stamp as "renovated," and
the date of its production. The col-
lector has made the following decision:
“Renovated butter made previous to
Jttiy l. 1902. Is not taxable. and the in-
ternal revenue officers have only to as-
sure themselves of the date of the pro-
duction of the butter. 0f renovated
butter taken from stamped packages
where the label has been omitted the
old revenue laws bold in force.’ The
action on prosecutions comes under
the charge of the secretary of agricul-
titre. and all prosecutions must be
made through him." ‘
