AT THE THEATERS

ORPHEUM.-Vaudev never had q
stronger representation than in the
present bill al this house. Every feature
is good, and there are several stars supe-
rior in their line to anything ever before
presented in the city. Lizzie B. Ray
mond, the popular serio- comic character
vocalist and Coincidence, has made the
hit of the season. She is a true artist
and her work is the kind that wins with
everybody. Miss Alma Herzog is also
superior vocalist, though of differ
ent order. She sings Wagnerian music
in the most perfect manner, and has won
the highest praise with lovers of high
grade music. Such talent as hers is sell
dom heard on the vaudeville stage. Nc
Avoy and May are a rollicking duo of
eccentric comedians. who create a deal
of noisy fun. Virginia Aragon, queen OF
the lofty wire, still remains a star fea-
ture. lie Clair and Leslie's new turn,
Cleopatra up to date, is splendid ira
vesty, and is given as only these artists
can render it. Mile. Carrie, the charm
ing little bell ringer, and the jolly song
and dance artists, Collins and Collins
complete the excellent program.

from San Francisco in Christopher Jr
Madeline Lucette Ryleys comedy which
ran with great success for four months
at the Empire theater, New York, this
season, is another successful American
star who comes naturally by his great
ability. His father was John Drew, an
actor or no mean attachments, and his
mother is universally acknowledged to
De without peer in the English speak
ing world in old comedy characters on
the general lines of Mrs. Malaprop in
The Rivals. John the younger might
almost be said to have been born on the
stage. He certainly was born to it. His
work in the leading roles of the plays
produced by Augustin Days company
won for him the most enthusiastic com
mendatlon of the critics of London, an
achievement the magnitude of which
can only be appreciated fully by those
persons who have made theatrical VEN
lures on the other side with American
stars, who in almost every case have
been pronounced failures. despite the
TACT that they were favorites in this
country.

Troop D. Entertained

Troop D., N. G. c., were the benefciar-
les last night of very happy thought
of their comrade, Robert Hartwell.
when he invited them to accept the hos
pitalities of his home. Instead OF hold
ing the customary drill in the armory
it took place in front of the hosts house
on Fifteenth street. That the boys were
the center of an admiring group OF spec
tators goes without saying. After
breaking ranks the gay troopers repair
ed to Mr.. Hartwell's house, where cor
dial welcome awaited them from their
hosts wife and a bevy Of daintily
gowned young ladies. who assisted Mrs.
Hartwell in dispensing the Inequalities
of the evening. They were the Misses
Hartwell, Bell, Blocker. Hitchcock.
Black, Curry Martin, the Misses Har-
ris, Wisewell, Williams, Kirkpatrick,
the. Misses Ward, Erwin Ervine,
The house was beautifully decorated
in the national tri-colors. Flags were
gracefully draped everywhere, with here
and there clusters of flowers to add to
the brilliant effect Umbrella plant and
bamboo were used to good advantage.
An especially pretty idea was netting
interviewer with green that hung
between the folding doors. Red geran-
iums and vines and flags Sdorned the
hall and on the canvased porch was a
generous bowl of punch that was re-
freshing and much enjoyed. Tempting
refreshments were served in the dining
room, the red white and blue being car
ried out in the ices and other refreshing
dainties.
When the evening was brought to a
close it registered for the troopers a
pleasure that will not soon be forgotten
by those who were present.

Virginia IL. This makes 1854 or the
6611a votes which Mckinley received
and they all came from states winch
cannot hope to send him single eiecto-
raj vote. This list does not include Can
fornia, which processes to be a silver
state, and which gave Mckinley Is votes
in the convention; nor Illinois, which
went Democratic in 1892. and which gave
Mckinley 46 votes in the convention;
nor Indiana, which also went Demo-
cratic in 1892, and which gave McKin-
lev 80 votes. Nor does it include 81 votes
given Mckinley by Arizona, Wyoming,
New Mexico, Oklahoma, Indian Terrl-
tory and Alaska.
That the great Republican states did
not want Mckinley is shown by the
fact that Maine cast its IL votes Tor
Reed, Massachusetts, 20 out of its 80
votes for Reed, Iowa its 26 votes for ALI
son, Pennsylvania SIS of it's GA votes for
Quay and New Hampshire its votes
for Reed. Ohio was the only one of the
great Republican states that cast its
entire vote for Mckinley, and that was
because it was his own state. Reed and
Morton are vastly stronger in the Re-
publican states than Mckinley.
The south, which is Democratic. and
the west, which is for free silver, forced
the nomination Of Mckinley upon the
Republican gold-standard east and the
south and west together will not bring
any apprecable support to Mckinley
in the electoral college. McKinley's
nomination therefore was anomalous
and unnatural, as it does not express
the choice of the effective strength of
the Republican party.

THE EDITORS GUESTS

Being correct and up-to-date revision
OF the original edition by Mr.. Will Carlton,
written Tor the present progressive age by
PAUL MASON.
The editor sat in his sanctum"
tIhe statement is quoted, you mind)
ana copy was spread out before him.
Ana on either side, and behind.
The telephone rang at his elbow.
Twas some one wanted the score;
another man down at the club room
was worried about Baltimore.
And Have, you heard from the races?"
And rs the editor in?"
And Have you heard from convention ~
10 you think the Spiders will win?"
The while the boy with the copy
Was piling it up on the hook,
A reporter was eagerly telling
Inc escapade of Jimmy, the crook.
Then shutting feet at the doorway
Bring in the stale odor of gin;
And voice from Down on de Bowery''
says "Say-is de editor in?"
We've got up a scrap with 1icFadden.
An dere amt no bluff in it. See?
An we've come down wild de forfeit
Me an me ZEN here-Magee"
And next floats in a fair damsel,
With gem of original verse;
She coyly remarks as she leaves IT,
Il think you've seen others far worse"
Then maiden of fat, fair and forty.
And eyes of a sinister sduint,
Brings an essay on "Bibulous Thinking ~
Which she's anxious to get into print.
The foreman is calling for copy.
The proofreader's stuck on a clause.
While political boss from headouarters
Discusses THE slate" and ''the cause.'i
And when he gets down to the copv.
With mind on business intent
guest from just round the corner.
With brain of philosophical bent.
Comes in with question perplexing:
And could you spare me a word?
I'm anxious to know of the statutes.
OF the time of King Henry H."
And so it goes through the evening.
Till the editors brains on the hrinl,
OF spell of delirium tremens,
And he's almost unable to think.
Each night brings the same old story.
Repeated Ger and DER:
And therell be no rest for the scribbler
Till he enters the open door
Where troubles of all kind are lacking.
And the man with interrogative nose
Is consi9ned TO darkness unending.
VIII all editorial woes.
Cleveland Recorder.
