''The Heroine Of 40"


A genuine Western melodrama, written
by Western woman and put on the
boards by Pacific coast company, several
members Of which live in Seattle, was the
attraction that drew a fairly good sized
audience to the Seattle theater last night.
The play was Mrs. DR.. Sawtelle's 1.-THE
Heroine of 49," 1t is q realistic play and
at times borders on the sensational. The
scenes are all laid in the Cascades and the
country lying west of them and are said to
be faithful pictures of incidents coming
under the personal observation OF
Mrs. sawteile in early days. The
company that presented it last
night had never been together
before, but it had an indugent and ap-
preciatve audience, including a number
Of those who knew Mrs. Sawtelle when she
was q member of the little community Of
Seattle sixteen years ago. The plot is not
so complex that it requires q diagram to
follow il, but it carries a moral that is
worthy Of constant repeating. The dis-
logue is at times wearisome, but it is
generally bright ana leads up to stirring
deeds. Grace Sawin, the heroine, made a
fine impression in her emotional part
George France, as Miser, displayed his
we'll known and admitted talents a, an
actor. Miss Sawtele took the part Of
Allilo, the Indian maiden who
was friendly 10 the whites, with
a snap and vim that caught the
gallery gods and the pit as well. She was
given a curtain call. as were also the other
leading members of the company. A se-

name of John Whitefeld. took the role of

practically made it . new theme. The
discourse bristled with good points, and
was relentlessly leveled against sin in

the audience on the gus vire, while his
wholesome truths set them thinking. A

the school a. now maintained il called the

MORE SEATS IN PLYMOUTH CHURCH
Measures Taken to Improve Its An
dienco Room.

Measures Taken to Improve Its Au-
dfence Room.
At recent meeting of Plymouth church
the trustees were directed to place the
pews nearer together, thus increasing the
number of sittings. The present arrange
ment leaves q wider space than is neces-
sary between pews.
The trustees were also directed to pro-
coed without delay in installing scientific
ventilating system, by which the air may
be changed rapidly without direct draught.
The addition of fire exits was also deter
mined upon.
The extra sittings will be provided for
tomorrow. This is temporary expedient
to relieve the present need. and will proba-
bly, be followed by more extensive enlarge
ments if that shall seem necessary.
The law which exempts churches from
taxation contains proviso that the seats
must be free. Most churches will welcome
this qualification, which, they say. is GER
tainly just. as the public which frees the
church should be free of the church.

girl of thirteen. who reigned during the five
months that elapsed between the death of his
father and his own birth. The next in success
SION are younger sister and two aunts. The
line may easily die out in a generation, and 1t
might not be a bad thing for Spain if it did, as
there would thus be one less subject for bitter
controversy.
For the cause of Don Carlos this much can be
said. The reversal OF the Salic law has brought
nothing but scandal and disgrace to Spain. The
crown had descended in Che male line since
Spain first had kings until Ferdinand VII
came to the throne. Ferdinand was the great
est debauchee of all Europe. Three princesses
whom he married in succession died childless
At the age of forty-tive he married Marie Chris
tina. daughter of the King of Naples, a girl of
twenty, frivolous and without a trace of con-
science
1t is said that it was suggested to Christina
by Ferdinands ministers that law higher than
the claims of morality required that she should
produce an heir to the throne. Even the king
was said to have urged this upon her, since his
sole object was to keep his brother. Don Carlos,

protect this baby king. The very act by which
his importance is increased exposes him to new
dangers. Besides being officially declared a
youth the etiquette Of the sscurial recognizes
no disability in king, so it will be as 'vgor-
Gus monarch that Alfonso XIII will enter the
eighth year of his frail life.
His birth seven years ago was ushered in By
his fathers death five months before. a sisters
deposition, an earthquake and revolution.
His immunity from personal danger up to the
present time has been partly because of his
infancy and partly because it was believed that
his small majesty has but slight hold on life
at best. 1t is scarcely to be expected even now
that he should live to manhood. for he has
certain constitutional weaknesses inherited
through the iniquity Of his fathers even to the
third and fourth generation. His death at any
time may plunge Spain into civil war, and his
life cannot long avert trial of the numerous
rival interests in the complicated political
situation of the country.
In his own household are foes. His grand
mother, ex-Queen Isabella, is living in exile in
Paris, but with court of powerful grandees
about her and strong following in Spain. who

The Canal Company Not implicated.

Ex-senator Warner Miller denies that the
Nicaragua Canal Company is interested in any
way in the revolution which is now in progress
in Nicaragua.
He says that the company has never mixed
up IN any way, directly or indirectly, in the
politics Of the country.
MIR. Miller further said that there was no
reason why the Nicaraguan minister's accusa-
tons against American capitalists should be
taken to apply to the Nicaragua Canal Com
pany.
"Our hands are clean" said ex-senator
Miller, land do not know to whom the re-
marks OF the minister refer. There are
other American enterprises, those Of
railroads and steamship companies, that
nave received concessions from the
Nlcaraguan government. and possibly
one Of them may have offended. The canal
company has had nothing to do with the revo-
lutlonlsts In any way. We have had no iuforma-
ton OF the outbreak or the subsequent success
OF the rebellion excepting through the
newspapers. Not the slightest attempt has
been made to interfere in the political affairs
OF the republic by us. On the contrary. the
company has always been careful to avoid
most scrupulously anything that might be con-
strued as foreign interference. We have relied
entirety on existing rights conferred on us by
the Nicaraguan government and international
treaty obligations"
Mr. Miller said his company apprehended no
trouble. as all Nicaraguans were in favor Of
the canal enterprise. II there should be any
trouble Mr.. Miller was of the opinion that the
vested rights of the company and the treaty of
1870 with America would protect it. The
treaty made 1t obligatory on the Nicaraguau
government to protect the lives and property
Of American citizens.

1t was soon well known that Christina had
found lover, a handsome tobacconist named
Munoz, who had had the good fortune to stop
her horses from running away. In course Of
time she gave birth TO daughter-ex-Queen
Isabella In order to defeat his brother. Don
Carlos, Ferdinand caused the eortes to reverse
the Saiic law. At FerdiEand's death Isabella
was proclaimed queen under tbs regency of her
mother. Christina entered into morganatic
marriage with Munoz and made him duke. but
she had numerous lovers aud the court of Spain
became q byword.
1t was decided that Isabella must marry her
cousin, Don Francisco d Assist a weak minded
ugly little prince whom the young queen de-
tested. She married him and then eelipsed her
royal mamma in the number of her lovers. One
of these, Marshal Francisco Seranno. is believed
to be the father of her son, Alfonso MI. She
reigned thirty-fve long years and WAS deposed
on account Of her politics. not her immortality

Humburt. the rightful heir, Alfonso XII, was
recalled. Isabella renouncing her claim in her
