from Scotland a number of birds in

Harry Corson Clarke, the well-knoWn
comedian, supported by a select COM
pany, will appear at the Orpheum
Monday and Tuesday nights in the
racy comedy What Happened to
Jones'" This will be the opening of the
regular dramatic season. Versatility
In an actor is at once one of the rarest
and one of the most highly priced
traits. To the possession of this quail
ity is largely due the success of Clarke.
Mr.. Clarke's name is rapidly gaining
an enviable reputation all over this
country, and in various other parts of
the world as we'll. His earliest Western
success was at the Lyceum, Denver,
where he became an immense favorite
and held an engagement for nearly a
year. He then appeared at Salt Lake,
scoring a fine hit. Returning to Den
YER he repeated his triumph and
swung back again to Salt Lake and
thence came to San Francisco as CO.
medan of the Frawley Company. He
went with that troupe twice to Homo
lulu and over all the Western cir
cults. Mr. Clarke has achieved un-
bounded success in impersonating
characters of old men, and has been

dubbed by the press one of the best
young old men" ever seen on the
boards. His greatest successes have
been made in the parts originated by
Nat c. Goodwin, William H Crane, the
late James Lewis. w. J. LIE Moyne, and
others equally famous.

SIR ROBERT GIFFEN and other emf

are protesting against the continuation
OF the gold standard in India. They
claim that since the Inauguration of

and Englishmen who have invested
money there cannot sell their property
for what they gave; so they are max
ing a mighty protest-a protest so ve-
hement and vigorous that even Lom-
bard Street has to give heed. By the
closing of her minis to silver, India
has been set a-quiver. The HindOo
who has placed his Accommodations in
bar silver cannot see the justice of leg
islating one-half of his property out of
his hands. He is beginning to under
stand this kind of thievery is not diff
ferent from any other kind of robbery.
AS a consequence, there is great dam
ger of an explosion in Her Majesty's
Indian Empire that bids fair to over
throw English rule. AS matter of
self defense, it seems that she will
have to restore silver to India. When
that event happens, which those con-
versant with financial affairs seem to
think not improbable In the near future,
India will take great step backward
in civilization. but her people will
have more to eat.
