Los ANGELES THEATER.-Gilbert &
Sullivan's two-act operetta, Patience,
was presented last night by the Los An
Reles Operatic society to large and
very appreciative house. Mr.. @. M.
Pyke is the director of the society, and
II is probably needless to say that under
his talented management nothing could
be lacking to make the presentation of
Patience other than very great sue
cess. All the actors, as well as the
members OF the male and female chorus,
are amateurs, but there was absolutely
nothing amateurish about the rendition
OF the charming opera. Speaking OF
the choruses, their singing was faultless
ana lar superior 10 that of many An OPP
cratic company that has shown in Los
Angeles heretofore, and they had been
80 thoroughly drilled that their acting
and posturing were praiseworthy in
high degree. The 20 rapturous maidens
and the like number of dragon guards
in consequence were the recipients of
many hearty and deserved recalls. Louise
M. Pyke, the prima donna of the Pyke
opera company, which is 80 we'll remem-
bered here elk years ago, sang the part
of Patience" the dairy maid, to per-
lection, as was to be expected, and
reaped a number of encorcs. The four
rapturous maidens were interpreted
with consummate art by Mines. William
B. Olapp and Washington Bsvey and
Misses Katie Airline Loomis and Jessie
Padgham, the latter heing especially in
excellent voice. Colonel Calveriey"
(Mr. Winfield) also sang very nicely and
entirely to the satisfaction of those who
know what a good voice he has and how
skillfullv he can handle it. Foley
Parker, as Reginald Bunthorpe," the
teshy poet, was exceedingly amusing,
and there WAS no tendency on his part,
as there might have been on the part of
less artistic interpreter of Gilbert &
Sullivan's popular opera, to oyerdo the
part. Tom Z. Rowan, whose symps-
thetic and melodious voice has been
long known to the society people of Los
Angeles, made great hit in the part OF
Archibald GTosveuot," the idy llic poet.
He sang in the best of voice and earned
many piaudits. The chorus was 80
good that il would be objectionable not
to mention those who composed it. The
rapturous maidens were Mines, Lara
bee, Allen, Stoner, Gerheardy, Simpson.
Maclin, the Misses Stoneman, Donnell,
McCreary. Malcomber, McCarler, Heath,
Jordan, Davidson, Ward, Gardner and
Field. The chorus of S5 dragon guards
consisted of Messrs. Mabin, Stone
Brandt, Allen, Lockhardt, Johnson.
Perry. Miller, Nelly, L'ewellyn. Peck.
Manning, Sullivan, McKeeley, Wheeler
and Yennem.
This afternoon and tonight Patience
will be repeated. and will undoubtedly
draw good houses at both performances,
owing to the merit of those who pre-
sent it under Mr.. Pyke's excellent man
agement. Other operas are to follow
shortly, among which Pinafore is booked
as the earliest production.

Hawaii is Preferred.

Washington, Jan. 3.-The tariff de-
bate did not begin in the House to-
day. The Republicans showed fight
at the outset and scored the first vic
tory. Before the time arrived for Will
son to take the floor, McCreary tried to
arrange an amicable agreement by
which two days-Friday and Saturday
should be given to the consideration
of the Hawaiian resolution
Hit, Republican leader of the foreign
affairs committee, expressed his will
lingness to acquiesce in the arrange
ment, but Boutelle wanted to precipi-
tate the question Immediately by call
ing up his resolution
Both sides were ugly, but after a
lively row, the speaker held that Bou-
telle's resolution was privileged.
The Democratic members of the wavs
and means committee were not willing
to go ahead with the Hawaiian dis
cussion until the tariff debate had been
gotten well under way, however. and
the question of consideration was RAISED
against the Boutelle resolution.
The Republicans then executed a flank
movement by refusing to vote
The Democrats found themselves in
the position of not being able to muster

Sample of the Stuff Republicans Like

Harrisburg, Pa, Jan. 3.-The Re-
publican state convention TO nominate
a ongressman-at-large convened here
this afternoon. Ex-senator Packer
was permanent chairman. In his adj
dress he laid the present depressed
condition of the country at the door
of the Cleveland administration; criti-
cised its Hawaiian policy and declared
the Wilson tariff bill un-American.
The platform makes the tariff the
central issue, as one which 1T requests
the voters to give the fullest possible
expression on as a matter of vital
national Importance. 1t denounces the
Wilson bill in the following terms:

enlarge the free list only on products
which employed the greatest number
of American workmen, and will strike
with equal cruelty the farmer, miner,
plumber and iron workers, glass work
ers and textile workers; it will trans
fer work from our own mills, mines
ana workshops to those of foreign
ship and all too plainly aimed at the
northern industry. It strikes the
southern industries only where the
same blow reaches the northern in
dustry; it fosters the plantation system,
and destroys the farms; it is an at
tempt on the part of the free traders
of the south to reduce the industries
of the north to level with those of
the south; it is vicious in its change
from specific to ad valorem duties; the
latter inviting foreign under valuations,

revenues; it will reduce the revenues

using the United States mails for fraud

his doings would fill volumes.
According to the claims of the prose-
cution, Howard, under various aliases,
defrauded the American people out of
$4,000. He, after a checkered career

After a, time division sprung up in his
church and the trial was the outgrowth
of enmities aroused while he was pas
tor of the church. His enemies spent
large sums to gather evidence against
him. both here and in England This
evidence is to the effect that he went

Washington, Jan. S.-McMillan, chair
man of the subcommittee in charge
of the internal revenue tariff bill, out
lined today the salient feature of the
income tax measure which he expects to
complete in a day or two. He said:
''The corporation part of the meas.
ure will not require an inquisition on
every individual to determine what.
if any coporate stock he holds, but an
assessment will be made against and
paid by the corporations in the first
instance, and hence q man, owning
corporate stock will not be worried by
the assessors unless he is the subject
of an individual income tax. The cor
poration will pay the tax on each of its
incorporators, and it Will, in turn,
charge it up against them; but to pre-
vent the taxing of the man twice, if
the corporation pays for the incorpora-
tor one of the dividends he would der
i've, he, in turn, is credited with that
amount in assessing the general in

1t is said to be understood the tax

by the treasury department so that
no large force will be necessary to keep
track of such a comparatively small

Chicago, Jan. 9.-Chairman T. H.
Carter. Of the Republican national
committee, left for the east today after
a conference here with the party lead
ers regarding next falls congressional
elections. In an interview, Carter saids
1.-THE National executive COMMITTEES
will meet in Washington on January

sirous of knowing how the great body
of the party stands upon the princi-
pal issue, and whether or not there
have been radical changes of popular
sentiment in the congressional districts
and especially where these districts
are located"
Carter said the Republican party
favored the use of both gold and silver,
and he no longer considered the Peo-
pies party factor in national poll
