Organized to Improve Conditions. 
The Eastern Point Property Holders 
Association, composed of about 40 mem- 
bers of the summer colony at Eastern 
Point, Gloucester, have organized for 
the purpose of doing all they can to im- 
prove conditions at that part of the city, 
without conflicting with any one; in 
fact, co-operating with the people of the 
city in general for the best interests of 
the community as a whole. 
This is a very commendable purpose 
on the part of the organizers, and as they 
are all reasonable people, with the good 
of Gloucester and its environments at 
heart, they should be encouraged in their 
efforts. “The association has held several 
meetings at which various matters were 
discussed and threshed out and they have 
urged upon the municipal council the 
expediency of mounted police in that 
locality. 
The association has organized by the 
choice of the following officers: Presi- 
dent—Samuel A. Raymond; vice pre- 
sident—Col. Sidney M. Hedges; secre- 
tary and treasurer—Conrad Reid; ad- 
visory board—John Greenough, Gen. 
George C. Reid, Dr. James H. Know- 
les, George O. Stacy, J. Murray Kay. 
Pilgrim Wanderers. 
Wm. Jeffrey colony of Pilgrim 
Fathers of Manchester and John West 
colony of Beverly Farms were well rep- 
resented at the visitation of the Pilgrim 
Wanderers to D. W. Dennison colony 
of Ipswich Monday evening. ‘The fol- 
lowing officers were elected: President 
—William Y. Obear of Lynn;  secre- 
tary and treasurer—Annie M. Davis of 
Beverly. Arrangements were completed 
to continue the journeys of the Pilgrim 
Wanderers during the coming year. 
Masconomo colony of Gloucester will 
be visited in July, Jonn West colony of 
Beverly Farms in August and William 
Jeffrey colony of Manchester in Septem- 
ber. 
The Perfect Woman. 
Since Annette Kellerman went to 
Harvard and was pronounced by Dr. 
Dudley A. Sargent as the nearest ap- 
proach to a perfect woman that he_ had 
ever seen, this young Australian has be- 
come one of the most widely discussed 
women in the entire world. As a 
vaudeville attraction she has been with- 
out a peer, and although she has had 
many imitators, no one has been found 
who has been able to combine that 
beauty of figure and cleverness, not only 
in diving but in other directions, that has 
characterized Miss Kellerman.  Al- 
though it is more thana year since she 
left Boston she has been such an at-~* 
traction in vaudeville that comparatively 
few weeks in that period have been spent 
outside of New York. She enjoys the 
distinction of having made one of the 
longest runs ever known in the metrop- 
olis, and she returns to Keith’s next 
week, the house in which she started her 
vaudeville career, with world-wide fame 
and more interesting than ever. 
Ladies’, Gents’ and Children’s winter 
underwear at E. A. Lethbridge’s. adv. 
William Collier at the Hollis. 
Charles Frohman will present William 
Collier, foremost among the comedians 
of the day, at the Hollis Street Theatre 
on Monday evening, October 4, for a 
limited engagement in “‘ The Patriot,’’ 
a farce in three acts by J. Hartley Man- 
ners and Mr. Collier. 
There isno more welcome event to 
local theatregoers than the appearance in 
Boston of William Collier. His fun- 
making is irresistible and his plays in- 
variably clean, wholesome and diverting. 
Mr. Collier’s notable success in ‘‘ Caught 
in the Rain,’’ “* The Dictator,’’ and his 
earlier plays, including ‘““ The Man from 
Mexico’’ and ‘“‘ Mr. Smooth’’ is a mat- 
terof record. In “* The Patriot’’ he 
has the most pronounced success of his 
career. It is nowin its second season, 
having run at the Garrick Theatre, New 
York, for almost an entire year. In 
“The Patriot’? Mr. Collier is not alone 
seen to better advantage than in his pre- 
vious successes, but has a play rich in 
comedy and appealing in heart interest 
that is a distinct addition to stage litera- 
ture and he creates a character that will 
not be soon forgotten. 
Charles Frohman has made an excep- 
tionally beautiful production of ‘‘ The 
Patriot?” and he has surrounded Mr. 
Collier with a company that is the largest 
in point of numbers and by far the most 
capable that the popular young comedian 
has ever had. During the engagement 
matinees will be given Wednesdays and 
Saturdays. 
Annual Food Fair. 
¥ What has been most fittingly called 
The World’s Greatest Food Fair and 
Home Furnishing Exposition’’ was 
opened in the vast Mechanics Building 
on Huntington avenue, Boston, last 
.Monday morning with an attendance of 
thousands before the doors closed for the 
day at 10 o’clock at night. ‘The fair 
will be open every day, Sundays excepted, 
from 10 a. m. to 10 p.m. until Saturday 
evening, Oct. 30. 
The concerts by the great band of 
Marco Vessella have already created a 
sensation among music lovers, crowds 
of whom can always be found listening 
captivated to the sweet strains and the 
splendid programs. Gorman’s old-time 
circus is the nearest thing to the tented 
show possible to get within the walls of 
a city building. One of the most inter- 
esting features of the fair are the con- 
certs by the celebrated company of stud- 
ents from Booker [T. Washington’s 
Tuskegee Institute at Tuskegee, Ala- 
bama. They are heard in plantation 
melodies and Charles Winter Wood 
gives character readings anda brief talk 
on the life and work of Booker T. Wash- 
ington.
