Royalty Doesn't Always Come High.

The smallnes5 of his stature is al
most as sore point with the Duke of
York as the short-coming is with his
father. Tho Princess of Wales and
Princess May are good deal taller
than their spouses, and that is the
reason why the Prince Of Wales has
such q marked aversion to being
photographed standing by the side Of
The Princess. If you look at a'most
any photograph Of their Royal High
nesses, you will see that either the
Princess is sitting in chair wish the
Prince standing behind her, or, if she
be standing up, the Prince is mounted
on some steps in the background.
There are number of the masculine
members Of our royal family who
would be prepared to take any quantity
Of thought if they could thereby add
IN inch or two to their height. LION

GREEN GOODS MAN

"a Green Goods Man." a new farce
comedy dealing with bunco swindiers
and the notorious green goods game re-
ceived its first presentation in Wichita
al the Crawford Grand last evening be-
fore a fair sized audience. There are
many good features in "A Green Goods
Man" and the play pleased it's auditors
clever company interpreted the diff
ferent comedy characters. Among the
features new to Wichita were new
sketch and burlesque on TriIby, with
a couple barefoot TriIby dancers. The
songs are all new, the women pretty
and costumes handsome. Several
specially features We're loudly encored
especially the dancing of ''Edwina'' the
limitations of ]. h. Emmett by Chas.
Eastwood and the parodies by Barry
Maxwell.
SINBAD. THAT SAILOR.

son OF Chicago. will be seen at the

ganza company viii present for the
first time in this city 'tSinbad. or the
Maid of Balsora," in exactly the same
style as when seen in Chicago. where
1t ran for nearly two years The value
of Mr.. Henderson'S work flor il mas
value) should not be underestimate
Its aim is pleasure. pure and simple:
yet it accomplishes more than any
harmless stage production. if il has the
power to lift tired mind out OF a
wOrh-a-day world, out of the humdrum
and send IL soaring on the wings of
imagination far away from the cares
and realities of the day. accompIshes a
good end. Such spectacles as Mr. Hen
derson creates are good tonics for the
ills of pessimism and worry. They
transport one to the land OF the eifs
and fairies, where children long to
dwell. and as we are all children in
a part of our desires and aspirations,
we willingly lend ourselves to their in
fuences. Anything that can make
one laugh has something good in it,"
rnus an old German proverb. and Sim
bad can certainly do this; therefore IL
is good, for il not only creates laugh
ter, which is the outward manifestation
of en- joyment. but IL sustains it.
