A CHANCE FOR MANAGERS.

Here's ar opportunity! A cable from
London brings the intelligence that the
New Years celebrations held at Os-
borne yesterday before the British Queen
and her court included amateur the
atricals, in which the ladies' and gentle
men Of the Royal Household. including
Princess Louise. appeared.
1t is possible that the Queen, whose
prudence in such matters is well known,
may be encouraging the Royal Princesses
and the ladies of the Court to study
the dramatic profession in order that
they may have a business to fall back
upon in these revolutionary times, II she
should be doomed to the fate that has
overtaken her royal sister Liliuokalani.
But without waiting for such u reverse,
what splendid speculation 1t would be
II some cnterprisinS New York manager
could engage the Osborne House Com
pany and bring them 10 this country.
They might not amount to much in an
artistic point OF view. But what swell
audiences at advance prices Princess
Louise and her associates would draw
in repetition OF their performance OF
Tom Taylor's play Of Helping Hands"

Men don't go into the prize ring TO

Relncarnntion.
To the Editor

To the EDITOR:
How many Christians, I wonder. know that the
doctrine OF reincarna,on. or many lives on earth,
was taught in the Christian church up TO the year
5S5 A. D.? That year Convention was held 10
Constantinople, and the doctrine was condemned.
That long ago that It is probably safe to
say that to-day not one Christian In 100 900 knows
such a doctrine ever preached In the Christian
church. 1t seems to me this is very interesting,
and wonder that modern theologians never dis
cuss it, seeing thst tht doctrine is upheld In the
writings OF Ongen, one Of the greatest OF the
early Christian fathers. II such doctrine was
taught for the first ve hundred years after Christ,
I should think 1t bears the stamp Of great author
ity. 1t Is even claimed that Jesus taught rencar-
nation and there are at least two passages in the
Bible which seem to support 1t. One is where
Jesus says that John the Baptist was the re-
Incarnation OF Elias. Another Is where Jesus
asked his disciples, who do they say I ann"
The disciples In reply. named several of the
prophets whom the people believed Jesus to have
been the incarnation OF. I would like to some
ministers express their views on this question.

The latest phase OF the burlesque Is
the reported anger at Washington with
Minister Willis. for his mild reception OF
President Dole's letter. assailing Mr..
Cleveland and thus casting an insult
upon the United States Government"
The Administration holds that Mr.. Willis

But all this recognizes the Provisional
Government as the regularly established
and lawful Government of Hawaii, while
the policy of Mr.. Cleveland's Admins
tration has been based on the assump-
ton that President Dole and his asso-
ciates were only temporarily in charge
of affairs on the Islands until our own
Government should decide whether the
Queen was to be restored or not.

Would not President Dole have been JUS

The Coming Great Woman.

Miss Mary G. Thompson, the gifted

1t is. however, preferable that the two

FOR GOOD GOVERNMENT.

The Chamber OF Commerce held n
meeting yesterday to give voice to the
sentiments of the Chamber In relation
to reform in the municipal government.
OF course, every body OF reputable
citizens Is in favor of good city govern
ment. The resolutions of the Chamber
declaring corrupt municipal admins
trat!on great source OF danger, and
well-paved streets and proper wharf ac-
commodations necessities of commercial
prosperity. will be heartily Endorsed by
the Maritime Exchange, the Produce Ex-
change, the Cotton Exchange. the Board
of Brokers and every other organized
association In the city.
But as matter OF fact the members
of these various bodies are citizens who
have the opportunity to interest them
selves In politics and to work for good
city government outside the exchanges.
and their sentiments are OF no more
weight and Importance because expressed
inside their business rendezvous than they
are when uttered outside. The commercial
exchanges are supposed to be devoted
to business, not to political matters. and
Mr.. Jacob II. Schiff expressed the fear
that in entering into municipal politics
the Chamber was in danger of going
outside Of its proper sphere and thereby
lessenlng its Influence.
OF course, such members of the Cham
Der as Cornelius N. Bliss, who intro
duced a resolution calling for legisla-
tive investigation of the police; j. Ed
ward Simmons, ex-Collector William II.
Robertson, ex-Mayor Hewitt, ex-Collec-
tor Joel d. Erhardt and others who were
at the meeting. are active politicians
outside the Chamber. and do their best
to secure good city government at al
times. Perhaps that Is why Cornelius
n. Bliss. who is Just now making a
hard fight for the control of the Republi
can organization, demurred to Mr.
Schiff's remark that there was danger
of the Chamber becoming Chamber o.

The resolutions were adopted, and 1
