Joseph Arthur's Comedy, "Blue Jeans,''
Returns to Providence opera House.

Joseph Arthur's Comedy, "Blue Jeans,"
Returns to Providence opera House.
'Blue Jeans" proved its strength as
wearing material by the large audience
which it drew to the Providence opera
house last evening. Joseph Arthur's 8
comedy drama has been seen here too re-
Gently to call for extended COM
ment. Despite its at times hitch
lug ploi, and the incongruities OF
some of its quickly changing sit
uations. blue Jeans" is an interesting
play and the secret of its success is easy
TO fathom. 1t has variety and plenty Of
it. Humor. and .pathos, laughter and
tears, comedy and melodrama, follow
each other in such quick succession that
it requires an active mind to follow the
sudden transitions aud thus the interest
is kept fixed.
The company is i'm some respects new
since the play was last given here. Their
William Courtleigh is many and
straightforward as Perry. Bascom.
George ID. Chaplin, the original COL
Risener. is unctuously comic. Charles
Il Udell, as Tim Tuterviller, presents a
laughter-compelling travesty on the
as Ben Boone, is forceful If trfle unin-
tel!igible at times. Miss Laura Burt's
June is piquant in the earlier and artis-
tic in the stronger scenes. Jennie Goli-
thwaite makes picturesque Sue En-
derly. and Daisy Temple cleverly
doubles " the roles of a Swedish maid
of-all-work and the nimble-footed SOU
brette. The others of the cast are CON-
mendable.
The play Is handsomely staged and the
famous sawmili scene is realism's self.
The brass band and the quartet I'll their
allotted places successfully. The ap-
plause was frequent and curtain call re-
warded the principals at the close of the
third act. "Biue Jeans" will he the at
traction for the balance OF the week with
matinees Wednesday and Saturday.

The attitude of the Prohibitionists
was very clearly pointed out in the
News last night.
They can justly claim to be nothing
better than obstructionists. There is a
law on the statute book now that is so
far in advance Of the public sentiment
that it cannot be enforced. 1t has been
given fair trial, and it was found that
it was impossible to get juries that
would convict under it.
1t is useless to enact laws that cannot
be enforced. IL there cannot be Juries
impannelled that will convict under the
liquor laws as they stand, what is the
use of calling for still more stringent
laws?
The field that the Prohibitionists
ought to cultivate is the education of
public opinion up to the plane of the
present laws, before they waste their en-
ergy demanding more.
II they would exert their political in
fuence in the line Of work undertaken
by the Republican party they would
find that party ready to make sumptu-
AIRY laws fully abreast of the public
opinion that must sustain and execute
them

CROSS PURPOSES.

There are few men in public life in
this state who have posed so long and
disastrously before the people as Colonel
Samuel r. Honey, and few whose doings
have been so uniformly denounced by
townsmen and voters at large.
And yet his party, yielding to his die
tates, has placed man in nomination
for the governership who has no
other claim to recognition than
the favor of Colonel Honey. The
record of Mr.. Baker is a COM
paratively harmless and colorless
one. He has few enemies, and is there
fore available. He has done little or
nothing for his party, and. his success is
the reverse of the alleged uprising Of
the voters.
Those who know Colonel Honey and
and the usual madness in his meth
ods" will not fail to understand that his
selection Of Mr.. Baker means more than
is apparent on the surface.
1t is not possible at this time to note
the full effect of this purpose of Colonel
Honey. Rumor is busy with trades
and deals, any one or all of which are
sufficiently distasteful to the respectable
element in the state, and any or all of
which should entitle Mr.. Honey's can
didate to defeat.

house, but II 1t does not pass just as the
senate sent it down there will be sub
stitute tha. for Iioeralisy and progress
siveness is almost as desirable. 1t is
not yet sure that the senate resolution
will not pass the house, II it is allowed
to come TO vote.
1t il certain that the Republicans in
the general assembly will be able to
claim the credit for inaugurating re-
form that has long been demanded by
the people, and taking the first essential
steps toward the suppression OF the
curse Of multiple elections.
The Democrats have complained Of
this curse for years, but they have
never come forward with any PROPOSE
tion to remedy it. They have con-
tented themselves with talk. The Re-
publicans recognize the defect in the
election laws and make a proposition TO
at once remedy it.
That is the difference between the
parties. The Democrats find fault, but
do nothing to cure the evil they com
plain of. The Republicans discover the
defect, or have it pointed out to them
by the people, and at once take effec-
tive measures to put the matter right.

There is no class of property from
which the rate of income is so small as
from real estate. Farms and farm
lands scarcely pay for their own cul-
ture. and no class Of property is SO lily
able to sustain the burden of taxation

PLUMBING INSPECTION.

Probably the importance OF proper
plumbing in the houses is not fully APP
preciated by the majority of people, be-
cause it is one of the subjects that
demand expert knowledge or expert
ence to enable one to understand the
principles that govern it and the conse-
quences that are likely TO arise from the
neglect of the rules that govern the best
work.
The necessity of some control over the
plumbers, and the formulation of proper
rules for the guidance of builders, cam
not be overestimated. 1t is subject
that has to do with the health of the
city, and even with the question OF life
and death.
The plumber who does tine kind of
work described in the News yesterday
is greater menace to the health OF the
city than all the murderers that have
ever been convicted in the state. He is
an enemy to society; an enemy against
whose ravages there is now no protec-
ton. The house owner has now no de-
fence against the fiend who deliberately
plans to expose him to typhoid fever,
cholera or any of the brood of deadly
diseases that follow in the train of de-
fective and shabby plumbing.
1t seems that it is only necessary to
draw attention to the facts, to the
lamentable omission in the city laws, to
secure the prompt action of the city
council necessary to remedy the evil.
