WASHINGTON, May 26.-Steve Elkins
overreached himself in inspiring a column
article, published to-day in the Washington
Post, purporting to disclose the secret for
eign policy Of the administration, which
was, as there outlined. to oppose Eng.
land everywhere and always, and
TO make defensive but not
offensive alliance with France and
Russia against any other European power
insulting us, but especially in the Boring
sea, the Sandwich Islands, the West Indies,
Africa and Chile. incidentally the Chilean
war was to be stopped, better grip taken
on the Sandwich Islands. a subsidized
line established to Liberia for trade
purposes and Venezuela to be
backed up in resistance to English
encroachment. The significant paragraph
is this: England, which behaves gener-
ously toward little bankrupt Portugal, acts
most ungenerously toward the United
States, perhaps not from hatred but from
an intsnse feeling of inevitable aud per-
petual commercial rivalry.

THE ORPHANS ENTERTAINMENT.
An Enjoyable Affair at Catholic

An Enjoyable Affair at Catholic
Library Hall Last Night.
The entertainment for the benefit Of st.
Mary's Orphans Home at Catholic Library
hall last night was a success. A large crowd
attended and thoroughly enjoyed it. The
first part was musical. Mr.. Frank E.
Rebarer sang IN his usual style his favorite
song, Loves Old Sweet SOng.n There was
a storm of applause from the audience at its
conclusion.
Mrs. Altick followed with "The Waiting
Heart with violin obligato by Mr.. James
Douglass. Mrs Altick rendered the song
in a charming manner and was compelled
to respond to an encore with "Jane." She
was accompanied by Miss Ida O'Byrne.
Miss Black rendered difficult piano solo
which was well received by the audience.
Mr.. w. F. Blois sang "I Fear No Foe"
He was encored and responded with "Mar-
Miss Ida O'Byrne sang in fine style.
"When the Heart is Young" She was ac-
companisd by Mrs. Reilly.
The musical part OF the programme was
brought to a close with Goodnight.
Gentle Folks by quartette composed of
Mrs. Altick. Miss Ida O'Byrne, Mr.. Re-
barer and Mr.. Blois.
The tambourine drill was the feature of
the evening. Miss Alice kennedy, Miss
Marie Lamotte, Miss Annie Bell, Miss MAY
Walsh, Miss Mamie Rossiter, Miss Nellie
Nation, Miss Mamie Reilly, Miss Bessie
Reilly, Miss Aunie Deegan, Miss Mamie
Sharp, Miss Rosie Kelly, Miss Emma
Savarese, and Miss Katie Grady composed
the company.
The young ladies were uniformed In red
and yellow skirts, black silk jackets
trimmed with bells and white china silk
blouses. They all wore their hair flowing
and carried tambourines.
Miss Alice Kennedy commanded and the
drilling was as perfect as could have been
wished for. The company marched and
countermarched by tours, wheeled, formed
rings and crosses and went through several
spiral movements.
The marching and wheeling were excellent,
and the young ladies fully merited the fire.
Quent applause which was accorded them
They presented an attractive sight with
their bright uniforms and flowing hair as
they executed the many difficult move
ments. The music from the tambourines
and jacket bells had cadence which was
pleasing to the ear. The only fault to be
found with the drill was that it did not
last long enough.
At the conclusion of the tambourne drill
fifteen little misses dressed in Japanese
costume executed in fine style a fan drill,
which was highly enjoyable. The little ones
showed evidence Of careful training. The
entertainment concluded with a hop. The
Harmony Orchestra furnished the music
for the drill and hop.
