a cast of capable people presented for

OF "Fabio Romani' This class OF melo-
drama, filled as it is with its story OF
love and revenge, pathos and humor, is

wellselected company it never fails to
please. Though somewhat similar in its
purpose to other weil-known dramas of the

strongly appeal TO the lover OF good TnelO-

as Count Caesare, the man OF mystery

The Noise of the street Merchant.

To the Editor OF The Times:
In the newspapers read of police court
decision against one Simpson for indis-
creetly using his lungs in inviting atteJl-
ton to his wares in the streets. This most
iaudable decision efnboldens me to draw
your attention to the truly internal noise
TO which we, the Inhabitants of Fourth
street northwest, are subjected by every
sort of peddlery, principally in the shad
and stra wberry business There is scarcely
a quietquarter of an hour during the whole
day, and even at 10 O'Clock in the night
late member of the brotherhood may turn
on US, thinking that the stiffness around is
only an idyllic background TO his hoarse
and brutal voice. 1t Is not seldom that
from every corner OF the four directions
the fiendish war whoops are yelling out
to Guido one another, while already from
the adjacent streets other bands are nest l.
ing, jealous OF those who have arrived
first, and showing their envy in the hid
eous accents of their voices
The thing has become public nuisance
and it is high time that not only one poor
offender is singled out and fined, but that
this relic of half-barbaric times is wiped
off altogether. In my many travels have
not Hearu OF anything that equals the
horrors OF Washington in this respect IL
will need at least some twenty arrests, and
these repeated three or four times, to fill
the gentlemen who think they can have
the public ear all for themselves with a
small dose or decency. Still betterit would
be il the competentmagistrate would work
out a system whereby to save the pub
lie from further annoyance, a system of
small drums, fine bells and other instru-
msnts whose compass of sound were To be
measured by fixed standard. These sig
nails should be distributed among all the
dasses of the street sellers and the use OF
any other sound should be forbidden.
The complaint is very general and needs

side. HERMANN BALI

The New York World recently invited
the artists of the United States, amateur
and professional, to submit drawings OF
a symbolic figure to represent Greater
New York, the idea being that something
more than the wellknown typical figure
represent the enlarged city. These invita-
tions were sent to all the prominent artists
of the country, and from time to time
drawings sent in by these artists have been
published n the World. Mr.. w. B. Stew
art, The Times cartoonist, submitted
drawing which is reproduced herewith.
His idea was that the old knickerbocker
figure should be retained as i is too well
known and too appropriate to be dispensed
with, however large the city may become
in the future Therefore he drew
Father Rnickerbocker but drew him large
and portiy, and insinuated patches into
various parts of his raiTnent, to show that
the suit of clothes which had served the
old gentleman from boyhCod was getting
altogether too small The coat has been
pieced down with long strip OF cloth la
beied Brooklyn, while patches on the knees
and the piecing down of the trousers at
the top signify other additions to the city.

all troubled by his overgrown condition,

Paragraph says Neither House, dur

There can be no question as to the mean
ing of the words used in framing these

understood and mandatory, for there are
numerous decisions that may" in many

The House of Representatives cannot adj

There was only a small minority present
The motion was made to adjourn for three
