Little Gray Lady,"' called by the New York critics the great love play, writ ten by Charming Pollock. The praise bestowed on it while at the Garrick Theatre and the Majestic Theatre have not been apprpached by that g'ven any other play this season. The reason is not far to seek. "The Little Gray Lady" contains every ele ment that makes for success in a play. as aireaay lnumatea, tne rove ractor is very strong. Its comedy is no less delightful, its human "interest is en thralling. The types and incidents of the play were taken .from real life. Every little incidentas well as every emotion is easily recognized by the spectators as all have exper ienced themselves. The story deals with departmental life in Washington. Most of the characters are employed in the Redemption Bureau of the United States Treasury and the plot hinges upon the unique and clever way in which one of them makes a hundred dollar bill. This youth is lov ed by Anna Gray, the "Little Gray Lady," and she in turn is loved by Sam Mead, a secret service agent, whose business it is to hunt down the criminal. The latter committed his deed cut of infatuation for the ex travagant, flirtatious daughter of the keeper of the boarding house at which most of the persons involved live. The way tn which the tangled skein is straightened out 5s highly dramatic. Seats now on sale. When in Need OF Mad a Close Call.

Shortest Ssaion on Record Held Yes terday Afternoon. The shortest session of the Board of Aldermen on record was the special called meeting of the body yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock for the purpose of hearing the request of the Society of Colonial Dames for some needed improvements about the mounment which they have recently erected at Third and Market streets to the mem ory of Cornelius Harnett and the Rev olutionary heroes of the Lower Cape Fear. When the request had been granted one or two members attempt ed to get in one or two little items of other business, but some one had made a motion to adjourn and that was not debatable. The Board would hear nothing further. The meeting was presided over by Mayor Pro-Tern. O'Brien in the ab sence of Mayor Waddell, who was in attendance upon the funeral of Judge Meares. The request of the Dames was through Mrs. Luola Murchison Sprunt, president of the Society, who called attention to the need of a cop ing of granite between which and tne monumen't a suitable pavement of til ing is greatly to be desired. As this part of the work is within the prov ince of the Streets and Wharves Com mittee the communication was ad dressed tothem, with the earnest re quest that they provide for the im provement detailed. It was estimated that the cost of the coping and tiling would be in the neighborhood of $300 and an appropri ation of that amount or so much there of as is needed was made, the Board of Audit and Finance concurring. xAt its night session the latter Board con curred in the action and the work, it is presumed, will be undertaken by the Streets and Wharves . Committee at once- A Temperance Lecture. At the First Baptist Church Sunday night Mr. A. D. Wilcox, will deliver one of his splendid' illustrated temperT ance lectures. The members of the McKanna Temperance Club have a special invitation to attend this ser vice. Drinking men from all over the city will be helped by hearing Mr. Wilcox. Dr. Hale says Mr. Wilcox is not a crank, nor extremist, but that he will keep his crowd awake, and will entertain as well as do them good.
