FoRD,s GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

Easter week-HENRY MILLER and the
original New York Company in HEARTS
EASE" The most exquisite comedy pro-
duction of the season.
"Heartsease," the beautiful play which ran
four mouths at the Garden Theatre, New
York, will be the delightful Easter attraction
at Ford's. Its first production outside of
New York was made in Washington last
week where tine Metropolitan success was
closely followed. Mr.. Miller receiving encore
after encore after each act. "Heartsease" is
a romantic comedy with sweet story charm
ingly told. The story of the missing opera
that would have brought fame fortune and
love to Eric Temple was most dainsily told
Henry Miller in the first two acts is as sub
dued as a Quaker he endures all manner OF
insults from every one without a murmur,
but lie proves in the last act that this quiet
musician possesses life and fire. The third
act is splendid piece of work both on the
part of Mr.. Muller and Miss Grace Kimoall
who plays the part of Miss Neville with
whom Eric is in love. The scene is in the
FOYER of the Covent Garden Theatre, and
all during the act the strains of the opera
Eric Temples own work, produced under
his enemys name are heard Gradually the
conviction that it is bis own opera Is forced
upon him. Then the strains Of the song
Heartsease written to Miss Neville are heard
and Just as he exclaims with wild burst Of
passion, ut is my own opera" the man who
has stolen his lifts work appears. Almost
in whisper Mr.. Miller exclaims, "you thief''
hcnceforth lie is anything but Quaker
Heartsease has proved the greatest success
of the SEASON. and aside from the great sue
cess of the season and aside from the great
merits of the dramatic production and Mr..
Mller's exceptional art, The company should
have the highest praise for their charming
work.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
FROM DUB REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.

WASHINGTON, APR. 18th, 1897.
Representative Jerry Simpson did
not succeed in making Speaker Reed
appoint the House Committees so that
general legislation could proceed while
the House is waiting for the Senate to
act on the tariff bill, but by his con-
tinued protests he forced out the an
nouncement from Representative Ding
ley. the floor leader Of the republicans,
that IN not appointing the committees,
Speaker Reed was following program
adopted by him and his party leaders,
and virtual endorsement of that pro-
gram from Representative Bailey. Of
Texas, the democratic floor leader, who
said that the democrats preferred no
legislation the part Of the republicans
to bad legislation which they could not
prevent if the republicans chose to put
it through. These statements resulted
in clearing the atmosphere very much
so far as the House is concerned.

If Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, who has
been appointed Assistant Secretary OF
the Navy, doesn't kick up the biggest
sort of a shindig in that department.
he will disappoint all the Washington
prophets. Said one Of these prophets:
II cannot conceiveve Roosevelt as n
subordinate anywhere. He is an able
man, although some consider him i'm
practicable, and if he cannot have his
own way, or a way that he regards as
good as his own. there is bound to be
trouble. l expect the trouble will be-
gin with some of the officers Of the
Navy, who feel pretty sure of them
selves and will not like to see civilian
carrying chip on his shoulder in the
Department and at the same time inter
feriog with their plans" Notwith'
standing this sort of talk, which ls
general in Washington, it would be a
good thing for the public service if a
Roosevelt could be made assistant to
the head of every one Of the govern
ment departments. There is not a
single one of them that stir up would
not benefit, although it might make
things disagreeable to few individ.

1t begins to look as though the va.

be filled. The new Senators, who have
no committee assignments, made so
much fuss about it that something had
to BE- done. 1t is not probable that
either of the parties can have their way
about these committee places. In fact,
there hes been a combination agreed to
by committees representing the popu'

the combination retains the rest. but
