A dress rehearsal of "Casey's
Troubles" was given yesterday after
noon at the Union Square Theatre to
the members of the press. The play
was magnificently staged, and the
singing of the principals being rem
dered with exquisite effect. The
plot of the play is something after
the style of "The Silver King" The
comedy part, Ct course, is given the
most prominence, and was ably sus-
tanned by Lillian Kennedy, Alfred
Kelley, Harry Sayres, Ellen Buckley
and others, late Of the London Gaiety
Company Mr.. Frank Mordaunt's
work as "LemOyne," and Mr.. W.
II. Danvers as "Jerry, the Gouger,"
are also worthy Of mention. The
company is a large one and all ac-
quilted themselves very satisfactor-
lily. The river was a very beautiful
scene; the realism Of which would
make one fancy they were looking at
the East River. The Siberian blood
hounds were on hand at the proper
moment, as was also the trick don
key, who eluded all efforts TO get
him off the stage and remained until
the fall of the curtain. We assure
this company a successful run in
HFrisco. -

HOLDING CLEVELAND RESPONSIBLE
For the Passage of the Elections Bill, IL
II Pass.

1t PasS.
That Grover Cleveland is losing caste
among his party friends in Congress is
known to almost every one about the
Capitol. He is cursed by the Western
silverites on account of his silence on the
free coinage question, and by the Southern
men because in all his recent notable
after-dinner speeches he has never lifted
his voice against the passage of the Elec-
tons bill
Last night there was little impromptu
gathering of q number of prominent
Democrats at an uptown hotel. Naturally,
the Elections bill was the chief topic of
discussion. Presently Southern Senator
said
"Gentlemen, If the Force bill is passed,
will blame Grover Cleveland, and no
one else, for it,
This remark caused friend of the ex-
President to ask angrily what Mr.. Cleve-
land had to do with the measure now
under discussion in the Senate.
To this the Senator warmly replied
IF Cleveland had done his whole duty as
President Of the United States and had
obeyed, as he had right to do, the plat
repeat, that the force bill would not
now be a possibility. To make myself be
better understood, / will say that If Cleve-
land had given the Territorial offices to
bona .jide citizens of the Territories, as he
was instructed to do in the platform, the
Democrats would have four, and perhaps
six, more Senators in the United States
Senate, as Idaho and Montana are both
naturally Democratic.
"These Territories broke away from the
Democratic party on account of Cleve-
lands attitude, and when they became
States elected Republican Senators. The
Republican majority in the Senate now
is fourteen. If'the Democrats had elected
Senators from Montana and Idaho the
Republican majority would be only six.
With only six majority it would be inn
possible to pass the force bill, as at least
three or four Republicans will vote with
the Democrats against the final passage
Of the BILL

The truth would seem to be that Mr.
Kipling Is an unusually bright fellow
who enjoys a somewhat exaggerated opin-
ion Of his own brightness; IL is quite nat
ural that he should be somewhat swollen
in vanity, for he has been ilattered to an
amazing degree since he woke up one
morning and found himself famous. We
certainly should expect to find youth sus-
ceptiblc to the charms OF compliment,
and we are free to confess that we rccog-
nize a distinct loveliness in that freedom
and confidence with which youth gives
expression to those views which II in
variably has upon all human things.
Mr., kipling's literary work is faulty
but il is brilliant and strong. There may
be, az Mr.. Carlton AYERS, twenty news
paper reporters in New York city capable
of doing as good work as Mr.. Kipling has
done. At the same time they have not
done it, and Mr.. Kipling has.
The error into which Alr. Kipling APP
pears to have fallen is an o'erwccning
greed TO profit at once by the reputation
made by his earlier publications. He is
stinct Is big within him. Mr.. Kipiing's
business methods are not those of literary
man; he is hustler, and we fear that he
is also paranoiac. He believes in haying
in sunny weather, no matter whether
ing his boom for all there Is in il.
Nobody should take to heart what this
young man has 10 say of this country and
its people; much that he says Is true, We
are very different from other countries,
and in that difference should we find con-
tinual reason for devoutlv returning
thanks to the Almighty. If there be
aught of praiseworthiness in the progress
of civilization, should we not be grateful
when our own civilization stands forth
as the conspicuous illustration of that
progress?
We hope that Mr.. Kipling will go ahead
with cracking his whip; he is young, lusty
and full of fight, and these things help to
keep other things moving. We have
much more respect for the sauciness of
youth than we have for the hypocrisy of
age; in other words, when we think of
the absurd batteries and lying arts which
certain foreigners have employed to mulct
us of ourmoney and good opinion, we are
disposed TO regard Mr., .Kiplng's com
batiye pcrtness as refreshing and praise
worthy to q degree.

How to Propose.

Some one has again brought up the ia
miliar subject of discussion, 'How Young
Men Propose" 1t is the testimony of
many unfortunate past-mastcrs in the art
and of several novels written by married
men that the young men--don't. In SO
so far as bury and confused recollec-
ton of the event will inform them, the
proposal was mutual and spontaneous
occurrence, or, to put it suggestively, it
proposed of itself-as popcorn pops, by
simply being warmed up to the occasion.
One thing is certain, however, the
young man who endeavors to be too
polite about making his proposal is lost.
II is undoubtedly the right thing to be
mannerly and conventional in many
times and places. "Will YOU plcase?'
"May trouble your" ~ beg pardon" and
Thank you" arepart of the small change
of the currency of manners. He who
does not rely upon some similar express
sions occasionally stands in danger of
being called boor
But the young man who would say TO
hissweetheart, "Will you please have meg
or MAY trouble you to get married2"
just as he would say "Will you kindly step
aside?" or "Please pass me the salt?' is n
hopeless case. He will be refused and de-
serves to be.
He may, If he likes, quote poetry or he
may injure his trousers by kneeling too
long before the adored, but he must be
something other than commonplace. This
is certainly how not to propose, and is a
much more essential bit of information
than any direct and explicit advice would

DISTRICT MEASURES.


Reports Agreed Upon Regarding Two
Bills by the House Committee.
The House District Committee met to-

favorably two bills-one with amend

entitled "An act to amend the general
Incorporation laws Of the District of Co
lumbia," approved March IL, 1889. This
bill has heretofore been outlined in THE
Critic.
The second is the Senate bill to author
ize the Norfolk and Western Railroad
