The Talma Club.

The first presentation of "a Bachelors
Widow" by Charles j. Bell, was given
last evening by the Talma Club Mr..
Bell is playwright of ability, and his
long experience on the boards has given
him an acquaintance with stage values
and effects that shows continually in his
writing. IL may be said Of modern PLAYS
in general, and particularly of the comedy
plays of the day, that the lines are in most
cases a skeleton or background upon
which the completed stage product is
based The details that make il wholly
effective and successful are TO some ex-
tent dependent upon the ability of the
actor to discern the spirit of the author
and to work il out along the line of truth
to the characters.
There are plays on the stage to-day
without possibilities, because they con
sist simply Of series of scenes, and the
audience departs from the theatre after
the curtain has fallen with the idea some
times expressed and sometimes only in
definitely felt that they have been enter
tanned by the eccentricities of the player
rather than by the genius of the play
wright.
OF Mr.. Bells play il can safely he said
that its possibilities are excellent. The
plot is not improbable, the characters are
true 10 English life and above all there is
n point 10 IL in the development of the
idea that there is q vast deal of nonsense
in the prevailing social customs of the
day which govern the actions Of unmarried
women. The absurdity OF the theory
that the natural purity of fully developed
womanhood. the we'll balanced mind of a
girl Of 20 years is not n sufficient protec-
tion to her. is neatly exploded in
this little comedy OF one act. This
constitutes it's background and IL is
IN this that lies its chief merit. In some
passages the play could be elaborated,
aud 10y such "A process probably improved
especially in the good bye scene There
is a tendency TO abruptness IN the farewell,
and where the border lines between
comedy and seriousness are so close as
at this point, little more time could
be fittingly spent in working up TO the
climax. Nature works slowly and the
true lovers farewell IL always uttered
with reluctance. AS whole. however,
the play abounds i'm lines OF wit and
earnestness that must appeal alike TO the
actor aud the audience.
The Talma Clubs presentation Of IL is
one Of the best pieces Of acting ever done
Lack Of space hinders extended criticism
of characters, but both in this and In the
following farce Of Change Partners"
there was very little To condemn
u is quite, however, TO the credit Of tho
club 10 know that despite the urgent ap-
peals made by the leading amateur clubs
elsewhere, Mr. Bells play was given to
the Talma Club in preference to all

just and proper the recent article in a
local paper concerning Mr.. Currier. He
spoke also on the tariff.
Gen. Charles A. Wilson talked on gen

the last speaker, urged upon every one
20 be up and doing in the work of natural
iZation, and bring all the younger men in
the town to realize the importance of this
step and the necessity of their taking il

All of those who spoke urged upon the
members the duty of thorough organiza-
tion and hard and conscientious study in
the matter of the coming campaign by
reading both sides of the political ques-
tion in order that they might become
truly educated in everything connected
with it.
The following officers were elected:
President, II. w. Cooper: first vice presi-

Mr.. MORSE RETRACTS.
He Now Believes that the Society
Acted Legally.

John B. Morse makes the following
statement which will be of interest. IL
will be remembered that Morse attempted
suicide in the Tillinghast building some
time ago, presumably on account of his
indictment:
/, John b. Morse, of Providence, r. l..
caused 20 be published and distributed in June
and July, 1891, three printed circulars concern
ing James q. Whitehouse, Premier of the
Supreme Assembly of the Royal Society of
Good Fellowsn which / made several charges
against Mr.. Whitehouse and among others,
that in collusion with other officers he wrong
fully and fraudulently deprived a widow Of
the beneficiary fund due her on the death of
her husband and also suppressed certain cor
respondence in her possession reating to the
claim of Ellen NJ. Lyon (the widow referred
tol which, if IL had been produced at the trial
OF her suit In the Superior Court at Boston,
would have enabled her TO sustain her claim
against said society; and have since been in
dicted by the Grand Jury for Providence
County, II. L., for publishing said circulars and
am awaiting trial upon said Indictment
Il now wish to retract any and all state
ments in those circulars in any way rejecting
upon Mr.. Whitehouse, as am satisfied that
the advice under which | made them was
wantonly and recklessly given, and that they
were without foundation in fact. am satis-
fed that Mr.. Whtehouse and the other Of
fcers of the Supreme Assembly of the Royal
Society of Good Fellows acted strictly in ac-
cordance with the laws governing the order,
and that Mrs. Lyons failure 10 gain her case
was due TO noncompliance by her husband
with the rules of the society.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., March 12-The be-
lief is rapidly gaining converts in both
Houses that the best way to adjust the
Behring Sea CONTROVERSY is to assume that
Canada is responsible for the situation,
and to strike a retaliatory blow when it
will be the most effective, and where it
will be directed toward the party to which
the responsibility is likely to be charged
The speech of Senator Frye, in which he
advocated policy Of immediate and COM
plete commercial retaliation is making
many converts. Those who anticipate
difficulty are of the opinion that il would
be much easier for the United States to
make contest where il can do so without
the firing of a gun or without the loss OF a
man by withdrawing the bonding privi-
leges than by sending fleet to the Behring
Sea and inviting maritime conflict with
Great Britain.
