 dience-Rich and Costly Court Cos
 tumes-Scenes at the Courts of Italy, | Spain, Portugal and England-One | Hundred and Twenty-Five in the l Cast-An Local Talent.
 The prestige of this dramatic pageant of a national reputation has no parallel. It has been produced by the Mendelssohn society of Poughkeepsie, women's Christian asso- citation, Springfield, Mass., and its educa- tional character esta blished by its presen- tation for six evenings and two matinees at the Providence opera house by the stu dents of Brown university. When given at Washington the audience almost visd with the stage in brilliancy, nearly every foreign legation being represented, the at tendance of thirteen United States sens- tors, almost without precedent at an anna teur performance, which led one critic to say: "Washington's best society, as on a gala night of grand opera, was in the auditorium, although on learning the names of the cast it would appear as if it were all on the stage" The
 following is an extract from the Army and
 Navy edition of the Washington Herald ir
 it's report: "At period when the English
 people had wearied of George II, and vert
 secretly wishing the advent of his success

The House.

Arvine judge of the criminal side of the court of common pleas. MT. Gum said: No lawyer could come
 here and say one word in Encouragement of MT. Arvine, but the caucuses of both sides
 have nominated for judges, to the best of
 their ability, as had been agreed upon by both sides.
 MT. Fox asked if the senators were pres- ent at the democratic caucus. MT. Gum said that he understood that they were, and this MT. Fox denied, saving
 that he was never at any caucus where this matter came up. MT. Wood of the committee said that he
 understood that MT. Arvine did not know that his name was going to be used until after the senate resolution had been intro duced.
 Senator Fox said: The resolution was in- troduced by request of several members of the bar, and he had e consultation in his office with MT. Arvine in which the latter consented to have the resolution intrc- duced.
 MT. Wood-My information came from

 to tho effect that MT. Arvine did not con
 sent to his name being used, and knew
 nothing of such resolution until after it
 was introduced. MT. Fox: Will you give me the name of

 At this point things began to look inter esting. MT. Fox, before Wood replied, said: As no one appears either in favor or
 sgainst the resolution, 1t will be passed for executive session.
