THE EXCISE BOARD,
Hotel Bar Rooms to Have q Notice to
Close.

Hotel Bar Rooms to Have q Notice to
Close.
The excise board has waited now months
to an exemption of the hotels from the pro-
visions of the law relative to the establish
ment of saloons within 400 feet of a public
school or church. Several times prominent
Senators have assured the board that the
pending legislation would soon be enacted,
but as yet nothing has been done. The ex-
else board meantime is being severely crii-
cised for its apathy in the matter The
Anti-Saloon League recently arraigned the
Commissioners for their failure to carry out
the law. and referred specifically to the ho-
tells which were running bar rooms without
a license.
At the regular meeting of the excise board
yesterday several of these cases were called
up for action. After the session had conclud-
ed. the board discussed the hotel feature of
the case, and decided to put the response
bility upon Congress. Accordingly the clerk
to the board was directed to issue forty
eight-hour closing notices to the hotels and
other places affected in time to go into eff
feet at midnight May 8. 1t is believed this
action by the Commissioners will hurry
legislation along. There Is some doubt ex-
pressed, however, as to the passage of the
amendments which will exclude hotels from
the provisions of the law. AT the hearing
before the Commissioners some time ago il
was boasted by a prominent member of the
league that its organization was strong
enough to defeat the amendment.
The excise board took the following action
yesterday on pending applications for liquor
licenses:

Attorney Thomas made the following re-

raise committee to codify the laws of the
District of Columbia:
Assuming that what is proposed to be
done can be done without money, since the
bill carries no appropriation, 1 think IT i'm

a year IL would not, in my Judgment be

The Juvenile Opera.

The little people who are to give the
Pirates of Penzance, at the Academy of
Music, on Friday and Saturday of this
week. for the benefit Of the Homeopathic
Hospital are hard at work polishing, and at
a theater rehearsal yesterday delighted their
directors with what was very nearly a per-
feet rehearsal.
George Welsh is, as he says, 1.-THE very
model of a modern major general" He is a
member Of st. Johns choir and has a voice
OF great sympathy and pathos, especially
suited to his line of work in this opera
When speaking of Gen. Stanley one nat
urally turns to Mabel Miss Emma Helm
richs}, who Is very truly the star of the
company. Little Miss Heinrichs is a thor
orgh artist and delights every one by her
sweet singing and graceful acting. Particu-
lar praise Is due her in the entrance song.
Poor Wandering One" of which she sings
every note, trills, cadenzas and all.
Arthur Clifton has been intrusted with
the role of Pirate King, and rollicking
dashing part he makes 1t. With a remark
able voice. both in range and volume, and a
natural faculty for acting, he cannot fail to
make himself one of the first favorites. 1t
Is Interesting to know that twenty five
years ago his grandmother, Madam Kratch-
mar, was the finest soloist in the city
In the pert of Samuel Louis Fiske has a
chance to show his excellent voice and
clear enunciation. He is another of the St
Johns boys, and that Is conclusive evidence
that he Is well trained and capable
Ruth CMiss Louise Childs) has a plea sing
voice and cannot fail to win high favor in
the duets and trios, in all Of which her
dramatic work is fine.
