Chauncey Olcott in Terence at the Columbia Theater
Chauncey Olcott stars in Terence at the Columbia Theater delivering songs and charm in an Irish romantic drama. The play, adapted from Mrs. Crocker, relies on Olcott’s voice and brogue, while Miss Marguerite Hayden plays the leading sweetheart and child actors add charm. The piece is visually pleasing with four pretty acts and lights, though one moon scene in the third act stands out as a minor flaw. Also featured is David Harum at Lafayette Theater, with the horse trade and deacon scenes drawing laughs in a annual visit. A brief item notes Electric Bitters offering relief for dyspepsia, with a one-page advertisement line.

Morton to Stay in Cabinet as Navy Secretary
President Roosevelt announced yesterday that Secretary Morton will remain in the Cabinet after March 4 as Secretary of the Navy. Morton had resigned the vice presidency of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe last summer to accept the navy portfolio and could not promise extended service beyond next March. The President wants Morton to stay long enough to push navy reforms and to help with major problems outside his department for the incoming administration. Before accepting the navy post Morton was offered three other Cabinet positions, none of which he could take.
