A VERY FINE COMEDY.

Though the stringency Of the times
has compelled an army of theatrical
ventures to retire from the field, many
meritoriOus organizations are meeting
deserved success. Among the money
makers Of the season is the sterling
comedy, "Other Peoples Money" now
being exploited by Hennessy Leroyle
and which will be presented at the
Grand Opera House Friday and Satur-
day, November 26 and 27. This COM
edy is now nearly as well-known by
the public as the celebrated Hoyt come
dies, and takes rank as the peer of any
witty mirth-producer of late years. OF
Hennessy Leroyle it may be truthfully
said: He is destined to rank with the
best comedians of the time, ambitious.
painstaking and conscientious to
high degree, and endowed with
wealth of personality, he gives TO his
art color entirely his own, thus dem
onstrating himself an artist in the best
sense of the term. The comedy in the
hands of Mr.. Leroyle and his capable
company is a continuous laugh-pro-
ducor, which leaves no bad taste in the
mouth.

Address OF tho Cuban League.

NEW YORK. Nov. 29.-The Cuban
League of the United States OF Amer
lea has issued an address to the branch
leagues existing in various parts OF the
country, urging united and energetic
action In a further effort 10 induce con-
gress TO grant belligerent rights TO Gu
ba. The address. which is signed by
Colonel Ethan Allen. the president OF
the league. points out that the Cuban
problem Is approaching its solution and
demands that the American people
should insist upon their political repre-
sentatives taking action In behalf OF
the Cuban insurgents.
"The cOwardice OF wealth." the ad-
dress continues. reducing our officials
20 inactlon while murder has been done,
the insincerity OF rulers inventing spe-
c!al pleas 10 cover their treachery TO
national duty. the open and unneces-
sary interference with the legal COM
merce of the country as an act OF grace
to brutal Spain. and making us her ally
against those following our historic
teaching, have all run their courses. TO
the wounding of national pride and to
our utterly exhausted patience. But
time and the Cuban sword have brought
the crisis which foreruns a final cure
in Cuban independence. This is the
hour OF American opportunity. Effect
i've work can be done, which, II well
done, will go far TO excuse our past
neglect. Congress is the objective point.
Cuba should be put on equal terms with
Spain regarding supplies from our bur-
dened magazines"
The address then calls upon It's mem
bers throughout the country to unite In
demanding that their congressional
representatives shall vote for the grant
Ing of belligerent rights TO the insur-
gents.
