BEVERLY 
Over a score of the members of 
the High school classes graduating 
in the years 1872 to 1878 inclusive 
attended the obsequies of their be- 
loved principal, Rev. Willard G. 
Sperry, D. D., at the Maple Street 
church, Danvers, on Sunday after- 
noon. Dr. Sperry died quite sud- 
denly at York Beach, Me., and his 
death came as a distinct shock to 
his very many Beverly friends; for 
during the years he was at the head 
of the High school, he won the love, 
respect and admiration of his fellow- 
citizens, students and parents alike. 
He will be sadly missed.

“Cape Cod Folks.” 
A new rival to the standard New 
England success is “Cape Cod 
Folks,” now in the last fortnight of 
its engagement at the Boston 
Theatre. It has started in with a 
virility characteristic of its name- 
sakes to reach for all stage records 
incidental to New England plays. 
It is the biggest kind of a popular 
hit, and cheers and curtain calls 
greet the great shipwreck scene in 
the third act nightly. The play fair- 
ly smacks of the salt-laden breezes 
of the Cape, and it seems erhinently 
fitting that the powerful character 
portrayal should first be greeted at 
the famous playhouse which has 
been the home of those other 
strong glimpses of New England 
life,» » “Shore: = Acres;”202“The®’ Old 
Homestead” and “Way Down 
East.”.. For “Cape Cod Folks” is 
much along the same lines and bids 
fair to take as conspicuous a place 
in the hearts of New Englanders.
