THE COMING L. A. W. MEET.
Active Preparations for the Trip to
Denver, Colo.

Railroad matters in the west having as
sumed a more definite shape. the Denver
wheelmen feel more encouraged and hope
that the late strike will not effect their
great meet, which is to take place in that
city August Is. At one time, they were
rather dubious and thought the trouble
might cause a slight falling of IN member
ship. A large party is expected from Wash
ington and the railroads are making every
effort to make the trip from this city q
success. Many are pleased with arrange
ments made to take Pullman or tourist
car here and travel to Denver and return
without change. They will also have the
use of the car for sleeping purposes while
In Denver, SO that no arrangements will
have to be made for rooms at hotels. Din
ing cars will be attached to all trains, and
the price Of meals reduced, so that this long
and interesting trip can be made with COM
fort and pleasure.
The Chesapeake and Ohio has been named
as the official route for the league from this
territory. and full information as to rates
and arrangements may be obtained from
Geo. NJ. Bond. passenger agent.
Montague members, friends of the
wheelmen. are entirely welcome. and will
be given the same rate of fare and accom-
mediation.

courtesy of Proprietor Little. all members
Of the league are invited to a Marine Band

into camp at Colonial Beach. and for the
next few weeks expect to make things lively

been pitched and gaily decorated with flags
and bunting. The club left last Saturday
night on the boat and expect to stay three
weeks. They are enjoying themselves in
numerous ways. swimming, fishing, und do
ing the place. In the evenings they get to-
gether and have about as jolly a time as
any of them could wish. The club is repre-
scented by the following members: j. r. Cos

AT THE METROPOLITAN.

The regular season of the Metropoii-
tan will commence next Sunday night,
when NJ. b. Curtis, supported by Albna
De Mer and first-class company, will
present for the first time here his new
version of "Sam'l of Posen." The
piece has been entirely rewritten up to
date, by Alfred Klein, the authorl of
several very successful comedies. The
play shows the rise Of young Hebrew
from street peddler until he becomes
partner in the firm which first gives
him employment. and gives opportunity
to show the drummer as he is at the
present time. The interest never flags
and the comedy is of the highest
order. There is all underplot showing
an adventures and her attempt TO
get Saml in her power. MIR. Curtis
plays the Jew naturally, bringing out
his fine qualities, besides showing the
humorous side of him, which lends
great charm to the performance. Albna
DeMer, who will be seen in her original
creation of Mile. Celeste, the advent
uresS, will wear some stunning gowns,
which will surely please our lady
theaiergoers. Regular prices will pre-
vail. The sale of seats begins Thursday
morning at the box office. The engage
ment will no doubt serve to draw the
same crowds it did in New York city,
where Curtis and "PoSen' seemed to be
more than match for the hot weather
in drawing large audiences to the
Standard theater for three months.

BUSINESS WILL ROOM.

The passage of the tariff bill, objec-
tionable as 1t is. will have an immediate
and beneficial effect OH business. All
industries areinter-related; what affects
one reacts in some measure on others.
If one slackens its energy it touches
many more dependent on it. There are
large number of the industries of this
country which, in one way or another,
are adjusted to the tariff taxes, and pro-
posed changes in the latter. whether
ascending or descending, compel a
slowing of production until the change
is decided. Then process OF readjust-
ment Immediately begins. and improve
ment shows in increased activity. For
over year our manufacturers who's e
materials or products are affected by
the tariff have curtailed production, ac-
commodating their output to the actual
and immediate demand. a hand-to-
mouth process of production. Other
voeations. not touched by tart ifs. but
related to those that are. have followed
suit compulsorily. This has materially
enhanced the effects of the panic by de-
aging recuperatlon. The reaction will
now follow; manufacturers will adjust
their business to the new conditions.
Production will spring forward TO not
only supply but anticipate demand. Re-
duction of taxes will reduce cost of ma
terials. resulting in lower cost, and that
again widening the consumption. But
the question remains whether system
of taxation that disarranges business is
a sound one.

The Eighth Ward Jefferson club had
a good attendance last night and de-
clared It's political policy as we'll as the
cuurseit intends TO pursue in humanitar.
ian work. Nicholas j. Pothen presided
and j. Nj. Clark was at the secretary's
desk. The club adopted a constitution,
which declared for the principles of the
patron after whom the club is named,
and also the unusual principle that the
club should dictate the naming of two
thirds of the judges Of primary cleo
lions. The adoption of the constitution
entailed several debates William
Rodger objected to a clause requiring a
two-thirdS vote to eXDel a member or an
officer. Thomas j. McDermott, the
author of the work, supported the
clause as drafted, aud it was adopted
after w. S. Ryan, j. j. Daily and others
had debated the effect OF the clause.
The clause III the constitution relative
TO primaries IN the ward provides that
they shall be held under the auspices of
the club, and that it shall name at least
two Of the three judges for each primary
voting place. There was a lengthy
debate over this clause. President Pc
then wanted 10 know how the club
would make that clause effective in case
the county committee refused to con-
cede to the demand. William Rodyer
thought it would be good thing, but it
might be possible that the club was
asking too much. in case FIVE or more
other clubs in the ward might want
representation. L. j. McDermott stood
by the original draft,a after general
discussion the clause was adopted, as
was the whole constitution and bylaws,
on motion of Judge James Shields. The

lished. President Pothen. L. J. Nc
Derm0tt and IL. 5. krauSe were selected
as committee 10 wait on the member
of the county committee from the ward
and notify him of the selection of

President Pothen inaugurated a dis

spoke of a large number of people being

SOMEWHAT INCONSISTENT.
An Evening Paper Makes Some
Misrepresentation Concerning
the Metropolitan Opera House.

An Evening Paper Makes Some
Misre representations Concerning
the Metropolitan Opera House.
The Dispatch of last evening publish
ed roast upon the Metropolitan opera
house that seems to have been inspired
by a selfish motive. After speaking of
the reduction in the price ''of nearly
every commodity" as the result of the
hard times. the Dispatch article re-
marks: The almost single exception
to this rule of lower prices is the ad-
mission to the Metropolitan opera
house." 1t seems that the Dispatch,
being the only evening paper in the
city, proposed to raise the Metropol-
itan's rate of advertising and the opera
house management declined to accept
the raise The rate of admission is
generally fixed by the theatrical con-
panies and not by the opera house.
The Metropolitan has not advanced
prices, neither has the Grand opera
house reduced prices, as stated by the
Dispatch. The Dispatch seems to be
somewhat inconsistent in this attack
upon the Metropolitan; while asserting
that hard-time prices exist everywhere
that paper showed disposition to raise
lis prices. Many attractions at the
Metropolitan are presented at a lower
admission Zee than the same companies
get in Chicago and New York.
The metropolitan has not increased
its prices E0r does it intend doing so.
The tendency of the management is to
present the best attractions it can Sc
cure at the lowest possible price OF adj
mission.
