ignition an association known as The
National Alliance Of the Daughters
of Veterans Of the United States of
America As its name suggests, this
body is kindred TO the G.. A. r.. This
order has heretofore been but little
known TO the general public, and but
for the fortunate decision of its officers
to hold their third annual convention in
conjunction with the G.. A. r. encamp-
ment it would perhaps have remained
in the darkness Of semiobscurity
The National alliance is the outgrowth
of q society organized seven years since
in this city, and the formation Of that
society was suggested by the daughter
Of a veteran soldier, partly through n
good natured desire to rival the efforts
of the local Sons of Veterans camp.
This suggestion, made on Memorial Day,
1885, was acted upon, and six days later
the first meeting was held.
A permanent local organization was
Effected on June 10, and ON Dec. 70 Of
the same year the secretary Of state Of
Ohio granted the society a charter The
name of the wife of Ohio's present gov
ernor was chosen as a title, and it is re-
lated of the apostle of probection that
one of the few occasions Un which he
has exhibited signs of deep emotion in
public was when informed by dolega-
tion of Daughters that their tent had
been named Mrs Major Mckinley tent,
Daughters Of Veterans. Miss Minnie
+. King, sister Of the present national
executive, and who died ON May 10, 1891 ,
was the first president of the original
tent, and the other members We're Nellie
King, Bertha Martin, Harriet Knapp,
Olive Howald, Lovo and Maude Stevens,
Name Huber, Maude Merrill, Frank,
Eva and Bertha Merwin, May Bowman
and May Mcmillan.
The little tent hourished under care
full guidance, and its influence soon be-
came manifest in the outside world. In
1887 the Daughters issued a charter to a
branch in Alliance, O. The newcomers
adopted the name of Mrs. John A. Lo.
gan tent, No. 2. The honor was wisely
bestowed, for their namesake has since
shown her appreciation by innumerable
acts of kindness toward the tent. The
following year Prairie Depot, o., and
Quincy, Ills.-the latter named Caro-
line Scott Harrison tent-were char
tered, and Ada, o., followed in 1889.
When in the latter year an application
came from Keokuk. Ia, the necessity of
creating a national association became
obvious, and the original charter of Tent
No. / was so amended as 10 adapt it for
such requirements.
A national constitution was adopted,
and Miss NJ Estella Mcmillan, of Mas
sillon, o., was chosen president at the
first national convention held at Quincy,
/ Ills., in June, 1890. Only Ohio, Illinois
and Iowa, comprising l0i members, were
represented at themeeting. The trainers

Ancodote of Sir Edwin Arnold.


SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 5.-The cele-
brated author, Sir Edwin Arnold, is q
very charming man, endowed not only
with polished MANNERS, but With a very
large idea of his own powers and capa-
blitios, and I'm thin q Jour
naist Just returned i, % tolls the
following story:

tongue presents extraordinary Cificulties
to westerncrs, as one set OF words and
phrases IL used upon cerem0nious occa-
sions. and quite another among friends.
There are distinct forms for superiors
equals and interiors. So much is this
the case that men who have lived TWEEN
ty years in the country feel a certain
nervousness when addressing strangers
or speaking i'm public.
Knowing this, imagine the journalists
surprise to hear that Sir Edwin. just one
year in chrysanthamum land, had been
delivering lectures i'm the voInacular at
the Kyoto university Travelling from
Yokohama to Toxic tho news gatheror
had for companions an Engiishman who
spoke Japanese fuently and q native
student OF the aforesaid university. Nat
urally the journalist inquired how the
students enjoyed Sir Edwin Arnold's
lecture.
The Japanese are pre-eminently po
lite nation, and The student looked un
happy, wriggled, drew in his breath,
then said:
"Sir Arnold is very fno mana very
great man; he admires Japan This
with pride. Then look Of yearninr
and anxiety came over his face ellis
lectures are very hoaUhful-but.
OH, we would like SO much 90 know what
he lectures about
To cap the climax, the scribe was i'm
roduced the next day To- SirEdwin him-
self. and almost his first words were am

the revival of Sardou's Diplomacy" Mt
the Star theater has been received. With
an ordinary lot OF players this drama
would exercise soporic effect upon the
average intelligent thcater goer With
the aggregation Of artists now presenting
il i'm New York It is an absorbingly inter
esting play, even though the first act is 10y
comparison with the others deporably
weak
There is no stronger theatrical organiza-
tion In the United States today than the
one headed by Rose and Charles Coghlan,
which includes Frederic Robinson, Robert
Fischer, John 4. Sullivan. Sadie Martinot,
Mime. Won Trautman, Beatrice Moreland
and Mabel Eaton. IL is therefore not sur
prising that Diplomacy" is a success.
While Miss Coghan is the "chief star"
Of the company, Diplomacy is so essen
tially a "man's piece" that the honors are
borne Off by the male members of the cast.
Her conception Of the character Of the adj
venturess Xicka, and her impersonation of
the role of the woman, the nature of whose
very love is tgorish, demonstrates that
she has no superior in this line Of work.
Another thing which will doubtless coll-
mend Miss Coehlan to the favor of the
ladies is her dressing Of the character. No
one who has seen her has failed TO admire
her gorgeous costumes
"Ile acts best who acts least" Doubt
less following out this theory Charles
Coghlan has created an impression as sni
Beaucierc which will stand him in good
stead I'm the future. He dominates the
whole play, despite the fact that Captain
Julian Beauclerc (Mr. John II. Sullivan
Is much "fatter' part. Mr. Coghln Is
so eXasperatingly natural that 80 is not un-
til about the close of the second act that
one realizes how wonderful performance
he is Witnessing His trying scenes with
his brother and Count Orloif, and after
ward with the Baron Stein, were revela-
tions of subtle acting His listening even
was artistic. There was never overaC,inr.
although there was frequent opportunity
for it. Those who are considered compe.
cent to Judge, and are old enough to re-
member critically, have asserted that as
Henri Bcauclcrc Charles Coghian is much
better than Lester Wallack, the creator of
the character IN This country.
Mr.. Frederic Robinson as Count Orlol
has part chat would be totally ruined hy
the display of Che slightest exubernce and
sadly married by the lack Of earuestnesa
and sincerity Of manner. It has the Scylla
Of OVERRIDING ON one side and the Charyb.

| Robinson managed Co steer safely through
the narrow channel of art without even
l grazing either OF the dangerous shores.
