Manager Herman showed his wisdom In
selecting such splendid organization to
please his patrons at the beginning of the
season. The first part, entitled "A Bashful
Venus" served to bring out the whole
strength of the company. The girls were
pretty and tastefuily costumed, while the
comedians were above the average Tilzer

Joe Waldron in songs, Ashton and Moore

POLICE WANT FAUST
A Jeweler and Watch Repairer Pawna
HIS CuRfQmera, Pr0nerfY.

HIS CustOmers' Property.
For three weeks or more the police have
been endeavoring to apprehend John g..
Faust, jeweler and watch repairer. who
was In business on an upper floor at No.
80 F streetnorthwest. Faust had been in
business there for more than four years,
and at times had done considerable work
for other jewelers.. One day, about the
middle Of last month, he failed to appear
sons whose watches he had became sus-
picious, and later a warrant charging lar
ceny was issued from the Police Court and
placed in the hands of Detectives Carter
and Gallaher for service.
An investigation made by the officers
showed that Faust had pawned a number
OF the watches and had gotten about $50.
w hen he left here Faust left a notice on
his slate that he had gone out of the city
for two days, but the two days were sew
eral times multiplied. and his patrons be-
came uneasy and started an investigation.
A large safe and regulator in the place
were taken on writ of replevin by the
man from whom the missing jeweler had
bought them.
Faust formerly lived in Virginia The
cause OF his alleged downfall, the police
say, is his fondness for gambling. He is
reported to have been a visitor to he
gambling places across the river in Vir-
keno.
Persons who saw him there did not re-
gard him as plunger. but thought he lost
only small sums at time. The police be-
lieve they will be able to cause his arrest
in a few days.

Under the ban of several slight handi-
caps the Morton Cadets, winners Of second
prize at the recent San Antonio interna-
tional drill, gave two exhibitions Satur-
day at Marshall Hall which were entirely
successful in every way. The drill team
in the afternoon, Of necessity, included a
number of substitutes, the regular men not
being able to go down the river until the
late boat. The drill at night had to be
held in the dancing pavilion, and the floor
being waxed and as smooth as a mirror 1t
was utterly i'm possible for the boys to do
themselves entire Justice. Their work, how
ever, convinced the spectators that the
Morton Cadets are II, the very first rank of
drill companies. The applause was enthu-
siastic and continuous.
Large crowds wert down to Marshall
Hall on all the beats, particularly that In
the evening. The afternoon drill W Is held
on the lawn Immediately after the arrival
of the 2:30 o'clock boat. The boys wore
the same uniform in which they appsare I'd
in the competition at San Antonio, black
blouses and caps ard white duck trousers.
They entered the dancing pavilion in the
evening to the tune of stirring march,
played by Schroeders orchestra. After

THE RUMOR DENIED.

Dfsmfssals at Government Printing
Office Not Due to Politics.
1t has been rumo1ed for some time that
there will be large dismissal of the en-
ployes at the government printing office,
to make room for constituents of the new
administration, but this has been denied
strenuously by the officials there. 1t has
been known all along that the force was
much larger than needed after Congress
mad adjourned, and 1t was expected that
dismissals would follow as a matter of
course, which was the case Saturday night,
when a temporary force of about one hum
dred and fifty was released.
AS the office now comes under the CLASH
fled service, it is probable that no whole
sale discharge of employees will take place,
as has been anticipated. simply to make
room for republicans. In fact. it is under
stood that the placing Of the office under
the civil service is a great relief to Mr..
Palmer, who will thus have something to
fall back upon when worried by senator's
and representatives to appoint their pro-
teges. He said recently that any rumor of
a big shake-up, so far as he knew, was
wholly without foundation.
