AT THE PLAYH0USES.


AS a source OF entertainment exclu-
sively, probably there has not been this
season anything better than George
Thatcher and his clever company of min
strels presented at the PROVIDENCE Opera
House last evening, and 1t was certainly
appreciated by an audience which filled
the house.
Tuxedo Is not new TO the play -goers of
this city and the principals were the same
who interpreted IL last season. The first
act introduces number OF clever people
in an operate rehearsal in the drawing
room of the "Gable Villa at Tuxedo. !"
This serves as medium for the presenta-
tion OF various specialties by the COM
pany, including a Spanish Terpsichorc"
hy Dolores, a rather tame imitation OF
Amelia Glover's fascinating performance.
The second net was by far the moro in
teresting. Inc scene representing min
strelsy ION the lawn at Tuxedo for sweet
comedians George Thatcher, Hughey
Dougherty. George w. Lewis, Jay Quig-
ley, John DAILY and G. b. Wheeler kept
the audience in continual mcrriment. Tne
singing Of the quartet composed Of
Raymon Moore, K J; jose Tom
Lewis and ii. w. .Frillman was
delightful. 1t Is seldom one hears
a more artistic rendering of the old famil-
lar ballads. The singing OF Mcssrs. W.
ii. Frllman bass, and Tom Lewis BARI
tone, deserve especial mention. their
voices are OF good range and rich and
mellow in quality The ladies OF the com
pany added much to the enjoyment Of the
evening.
Tuxedo" is radical departure from
the old lines of Minis relsy, having neither
form nor plot, but serves well tho pur-
pose for which IL was written and is
therefore to n certain extent exempt
from criticism.
The performance will be repeated
throughout the week including Saturday
matinee.

FRIGHT.

My hair is white, nor grew it white
In single night, as mems have grown
From sudden fears"
Thus wrote Lord Byron in the prisoner of
Chillon. About two months since Charles
Roos fell from a scaffolding on board the
Monterey at San Francisco, and received
serious injuries. The man was conveyed
to the receiving hospital, where it was
found that he had fractured skull, He
remained in the hospital for several weeks
and was delirious most of the time, and
was finally sent to the County Hospital.
A day or two ago Roos called at the receiy-
ing hospital to get the money and trinkets
that were taken from him when he first
went there A remarkable change had
come over the man and Steward Trewin
failed to recognize him at first. Two
months ago Roos' hair was jet black, but
it is now as white as snow. The doctors
at the receiving hospital are at loss to ac-
count for the sudden change, except on the
score of fright. Roos, however, says he
can't remember anything about the acci-
dent and that until few days ago he
labored under the delusion that he was in
swimming at Alaska. 81 felt cold all the
time," said Roos, "and sometimes 1
thought I was catching fish," Roos is
about 40 years old.

OUR CRUISER.

The handsome cruiser Olympia, the
namesake of the capital of the state of
Washington, has not yet received recogni-
ton at the hands of the people of this city
Unfortunately, it was not even possible
for representative Of this city or state. to
be present at the occasion of the launch
ng, and the event passed almost unnoticed.
For years, it has been the custom for the
citizens of city after which cruiser has
been named, to show recognition of the
honor by a memorial gift of some descrip-
tion. A handsome clock was the gift of
the people of Philadelphia, and efforts are
now being made to patch up a breach
occasioned by the manner in which the
gift was placed on board the cruiser. In
every case except that of the Philadelphia
the presentation was made the occasion of
something of a ceremony. The clock, how
ever, was merely sent down to the ship,
and to use the phrase of a prominent naval
officer on duty, dumped on board like a
sack of potatoes"
For this reason it is proposed to endeavor
to induce the secretary of the navy to di-
rect the return of the cruiser to Philadel-
phia, so that the officers of the vessel can
be banqueted, the clock presented at the
festive board with due eclat, and the Of
ficers given an opportunity to appropri-
atsly receive and acknowledge the memo
rial.
The citizens of Olympia have a matter of
considerable importance confronting them,
and one which should not be neglected. If
the ladies of Olympia would present a
handsome flag it>wOuld be fitting recog-
milton on their part, while the public gen
orally could look after the memorial gift.

On THE second Tuesday after the meeting
and organization of the legislature it pro.
ceeds to elect a United States senator. Each
house acts separately on the first day of
voting, but this election is in no event
final, for on the following day at noon the
two branches meet in joint assembly, and
II 1t appears that the same person has re-
ceived majority in each house he is de-
ciared elected. limo person has received a
majority in each house the convention pro
ceeds to ballot. If no person receives a
majority the convention meets from day
to day, taking at least one ballot at each
meeting, until senator is elected. That is
how United States senator is elected and
how the business Of the people is clogged.
Elect them at large by the people and stop
such monkey business.

ToM SETTLE, the only republican elected
to the next congress from North Carolina,
is the youngest member-2S years. He
comes from an old whig family. He said to
a reporter; "For the first time the demo-
cratic party is in minority in my state
It's vote for Cleveland was 10000 less than
1t was four years ago, and the combined
vote Of the populists and the republicans
was greater than that cast by the demo-
Gratis. The entire strength of the demo-
Gratis, too, is in the black districts. It is
rather curious thing that the silk banner
which Senator Vance offered to the county
giving giving the largest democratic ma
jority should have been won by Halifax
county, in which, according to the census
of 1860, there are 10000 more negroes than
there are white men,"

draw pensions for services and wounds
prior to the rebellion. The rolls of the
army at the close of the war, as reported
in the American Encyclopedia and in other
authorities, show that there were officers
and men in active service at that time
100000. At that date hundreds of thous-
ands had been discharged on account of
wounds or other disability, thousands were
in the hospitals suffering from wounds or
sickness, and many thousands who had
served the full two years and three years.

A BUSINESS SPEAKER.

One of our exchanges speaks of Theodore
F. Mentzer, candidate for speaker, as ga
young lawyer" Mr.. Mentzer is not prac-
ticing law at present. He is a successful
manufacturer of lumber at Tenino, in this
county, is forty-four years of age, has been
a city councilman and mayor of the city of
Marion, Iowa, city attorney and mayor of
Mitchell, Dakota, and a member of the
Dakota house of Representatives. He is an
experienced man in public affairs, a ready
debater and well versed in parliamentary
law. He is just the kind OF man wanted in
the speakers chair. He is not "a stick"
although lumberman. If the business of
the house is to be dispensed quickly and
inteligently, there is no better man than
Theodore F. Mentzer for speaker The
South Dakota Huronite, published at his
old home, says:
Theo. H. Mentzer-all South Dakota re-
members him-has been elected to the
legislature of the state of Washington,
whittier he went some years ago, and is be-
ing pushed for speaker of the house.
Mentzer fills the bill wherever good sense
and sterling manhood are IN demand.
The Sedro Press of Skagit county, says:
Theo. H. Mentzer, of Tenino, has been
mentioned as the speaker of the house at
the coming session of the state legislature
and it would seem that his chances for Sc
curing the honored position are very good.
Mr.. Mentzer is in every way capable to fill
the position, and it is to be hoped that the
legislature will agree upon HIM as the man
to preside over the assembly.

The Skagit News calls the attention of
the city council Of Mt. Vernon to the habit
Of medicine and tobacco fakirs defacing the
electric light and telegraph poles by mailing
thereon their advertising matter. An ordi-
nance should be passed, it says, requiring
the removal of these unsightly notices, and
prohibiting the use of all poles or city pro
perty within the city limits for this pur-
pose. The News man ought to get move
on himself and come to the state capital,
If he wants to see poles, fences, sidewalks
and even gutter sides defaced with all sorts
OF signs. 1t is an outrage to decency and
yet it goes merrily along and our city
authorities do nothing to stop it.

SETON HOSPITAL.

Seton Hospital will be the realization Of the benevo
lent ambition OF Sister Irene. the protector and head
Of the New York Founding Asylum, witch she has
cheis he'd for many years. Telling the story briefly
ia her own words the sister said:
at Is forty years since. while was at work In the
lower part Of the city, first conceived tho idea Of
home for taking care Of c0nsumptves. Those WIZ
have ever visited the cnements that surround Us have
seen. as have seen many times these poor uh
f,rtunaes dying amid squaor and without any attempt
being made 10 relieve their suhcrings. nave Often
seen q poor man lying alone pallet In small
room scarcely large enough breathe in with his WIG
away earning pittance 10 pay the rent which lie was
unable 10 earn.
Il think Of all classes that there IS none 50 ""-
fortunate as conSumpves because their disease Is so
tedi ous and so hopeless. Nobody wants them 10 h's-
pita wants them. But the plans Tad IN mind Tor the
amelora6on Of these sufferers too vast for mme-
diate accomp ishment. And so let the matter resi-
until now some OF my kind friends have rallied AROUND
me and have lent their generous assistance 10 rhur
possible my dreams of nearly half century ago
The hospital Is named after Elizabeth A. SETON the
founder OF the order Of the Sisters OF Chay III 'S
country who was converted 10 the Cath)i ialih IN
March 1905 soon after The death OF her husband ana
who died Of consumption in 1921. Mrs seton was
connected with the Roosevelt family OF this city, ana
