Fresno Republican: The cause of war
is, of course, the Maine. Congress may
use what diplomatic phrases it pleases
and no one cares. But every Ameri-
can sailor and soldier knows in his
heart that he is about to fight to
avenge the men treacherously murder
ed in Havana harbor. And the knowl-
edge makes his heart light and his arm
strong for the battle.-Stockton Mail.
1t is true we are going to "Remem-
Der the Maine" and avenge the treach-
erous murder of our brave sailors in
Havana harbor, but this war with
Spain has a deeper and more import
ant significance than righteous venge-
ance. It serves notice upon the world
that the barbarities Of the dark ages
can no longer prevail upon this West
ern Hemisphere, and that the nation
which attempts the infamies that Spain
has practiced in Cuba vii have to an
swer to the United States.
This Government has drawn the
fere in behalf of a weak and defense
less people at its own threshold starved
and butchered by inhuman tyrants.
and the sword will not be sheathed till
the cause of right and justice has tri-
umphed Upon the banner which this
nation has uplifted are inscribed the
words For Humanity that all the
nations of the earth may read and un-
derstand the import Of its action.

When one remembers the productions
of Shakespeare this year, from Miss
Arthur's LAS You Like It,, Mr.. DAILY

ed Romeo and Juliet" with Maude
Adams and Mr.. Faversham, to the
Warde-James Kidder performances,
Mrs. Carriers intended Winters Tale"

ler's plans, it may fairly be asked over
again by some investigating gentle
man like Mr.. Munsey: will the peo-
pie take Shakespeare"
This may be the beginning OF the
end, and those who witnessed Joseph
Jefferson recent performances at the
Fifth avenue shall have probably the
last memory of our famous actor. A
few evenings before his retirement the
venerable comedian showed his age I'M
rnistakably in the dual scene OF 'Ihe
Rivals" and the admirable humor with
which he used to enliVen that episode
had softened it's ancient brllliancy into
dull glow of merriment. The last
chief memory Of his former partner IN
wit, Mrs John Drew, is her lnlmltaDle
Mrs Malaprop, and it is artistlcally Mt
ting that we shall remember Mr.. Jeffer-
son finally and best by his Bob Acres
It was so that Edwin Booth quietly
made his exit from the tragic stage
and never returned to it. Few per-
formers have the theatric exit OF PEG
wellington, who fell on the stage as
the curtain dropped on "As You Like
It." or the opera singer who dropped
dead before the audience one night IN
the Metropolitan. The player dies
many times in the play, but seldom IN
reality. It is hopefully announced
that Mr.. Jefferson will resume his tour
in the spring, but at his advanced age
there is little likelihood that he VIII
ever again take part in our drama
He carries with him from the busy
scene of the stage at least one character
for no other player in our times would
venture to challenge direct comparison
with Joseph Jefferson in RIP Van
Wrinkle" His sons promise to carry
out engagements already made, but
after these contracts are fulfilled Rip,
and for a time Bob Acres and DR.. Pan
glors, will fall into oblivion with the
comedian who rescued them from 1t

ance was demoraliziingly small, and

l asked Major Keogh whether or not
it was his purpose to send a "Cyrano
de Bergerac" company out on the road,
and the question caused him to have a
violent fit of laughter. He said that
many people seemed to be under the
impression that because Mr.. Mansfield
had made a great hit in the play any
one else could do the same thing. He
further declared that he had never
been of that opinion, but that as a
careful business man he had come to
satisfy himself. The performance at
the Third avenue theatre had convin-
ced him that there is but one man in
this country to whom Rostand's drama
is of any use, and that man is Richard
Mansfield. keogh's idea is that roy

case of play like "Cyrano de Berger
ac'' the lack of copyright protection is
of no value to any one, except it be

is not bothering him in any way, for
he is making great deal of money

A matter of little burnt cork has

giving as his reason that the people of
that section would understand the COM
edy better. AS a Southerner of course

the hundreds OF thousands of theatre
eoers in this country there are none
more discriminating than those who

kendalfs act is essentially a white face
one. and it would have been the height
or folly to change its color without
changing its subject matter, just as it
is absurd to run the risk of injuring
ones hard earned reputation by such a
shallow makeshift which would not
unnaturally be resented by the intelli-
gent people of the South, who are
mighty quick to catch on to the fine
points Of real humor as illustrated by
such cOnsummate artist as Ezra Ken
dali. Naturally as soon as it became
known that the latter had left the
West MINISTRIES, he was inundated with
offers from the best vaudeville man
ayers in the country, and he has al
ready accepted a number of dates at
the prominent houses in the very large
cities. incidentally it may be worth
mentioning that the salary he is re-
ceiving is about 500 a week larger
than that which was paid to him by
West.

Caring Dyspepsia.
The Rev. F. l. Bell, highly esteem
ed minister residing in Weedsport,
Cayuga Co., N. Y, in a recent letter
writes as follows: There has never
been anything that have taken that
has relieved the Dyspepsia from which
have suffered for ten years except the
new remedy called Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. Since taking them have had
no distress at all after eating and again
after long years can sleep well. Rev.
F. I. Bell, Weedsport, N. T., formerly,
Idalia, Colo"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a re-
markable remedy, not only because it
is a certain cure for all forms of indi-
gestion, but because it seems to act as
thoroughly in old chronic cases OF dys-
pepsia as well as in mild attacks of in
digestion or biliousness. A person has
dyspepsia simply because the stomach
is oyerworked, all it wants.is harm
less, vegetable remedy to digest the
food and thus give it the much needeo
rest.
This is the secret of the success OF
this peculiar remedy. No matter now
weak or how much disordered the d.
sgestion may be, Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will digest the food whether
the stomach works or not. New lie
and energy is given not only to the
stomach but to every organ and nerve
in the body. A trial of this splendid
medicine will convince the most skep-
tical that Dyspepsia and all stomach
troubles can he cured. The tablets are
prepared by the F. A. Stuart Co., OF
Marshall, Mich, but so popular has
the remedy become that Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets can now be obtained at
any drug store at so cents per package.

A great deal of English wit nova
days depends upon the question of
marriage, which the English author

from three plays in New York which

riages are made in heaven, and If once
we set to work to repair celestial mis-

lures of Lady Ursula" offers this pert
observation: Marriage is of divine
foundation-maybe But when build

he has been secretly married TO a pea
SAINT girl; he had blighted her life, and
fearing exposure, he was compelled to
leaye Germany. Before his second
M Ariage he hears that his first wife
is cAad, but this is a false rumor start

Professors house as Lord Green Goods,
an Englishman nobleman. He is re-

become party to his scheme, to save
himself from the charge of bigamy.

1t was notable week in local theat-
rical circles, many irst cias: attrac-
lions being crowded into the six days.
At least a dozen different comic and
romantic operas were sung dur
ing the week, affording lovers
of that class of stage divertise-
ment unusual opportunities for the
qualification of their taste. The Will
bur Company put in solid week at
the Grand, and the Andrews Opera
Company gave four performances at
the Opera House. Both are meritori-
Gus organizations and their perform
ances were in every way satisfactory.
They were witnessed by large audi
ences, but the patronage was divided
as a matter of course. 1t is unfor-
tunate that both theatres should have
opera on the boards at the same time,
when neither has more than one or
two opera companies booked during
the entire season.
Friday night The Players gave one
of the most meritorious home talent
entertainments ever witnessed in the
Opera House. 1t was double comedy
bill, Breaking the Ice" as a curtain
raiser, and the very laughable farce,
1.-THE Spectator" The productions
were satisfactory from every stand
point. The cast did excellent work,
and the costuming and staging was
beyond criticism. The Players show
constant improvement, and rank away
above many dramatic organizations
which visit this city.
Anna Laughlin, the child artist with
the Wilbur Opera Company, gives
promise of great things in the future,
provided the severe strain to which
she is now daily subjected does not
work injury to her health. She is a
maryellously couuettish little sprite,
with pair of mischevious eyes and a
thorough acquaintance with the art OF
using them. While her voice it rather
weak, it is very musical, and the prin-
cipal charm in her songs lies in her
expression. She is the very embodi-
ment of grace. The only person to
whom Anna Laughlin may be COM
parer is little Irene Myers, who is two
or three years her junior. Irene ex-
cells in voice, and Anna in dramatic
action land they are equally pleasing
genuine little artists, both of them.

"a Hired Grip will be in Chas. r.

est production, "a Hired Girl" Mr.
Blaney has written several farce COM
edy successes, and one comedy drama
but this is said to surpass anything
he has yet attempted; he calls it a
musical comedy, bordering closely up
on comic opera. There is a plot OF
considerable interest, but it does not
interfere with the introduction of spec
ialties and amusing situations, usually
brought by the efforts of the hired girl
to run things to suit her way of think
