Providence, on Wednesday evening and two at the Pi Eta Theatre on Friday and Saturday of this week. A few tickets are still on sale at the Cooperative and at Leavitt and Peirce...

If the experiment succeeds, as it will succeed, she may go on to further conquests. But nothing is fixed, and she will be guided by events. This is not to rival the league; it is to supplement and assist it. There is need for the permanent machinery of pacification as well as for specific efforts to deal with particular questions. -Manchester Guardian Weekl
