 As the last resort the company had to put on substitute, who knew nothing of the part, and the result was that the performance fell fiat and the engagement eventually proved a failure.

ard of the past, either as to plays or players; that from Booth, a Siddons, a Nelson they have descended to the point where they are content with what they receive from such artists, say, as De Wolf Hopper, Francis Wilson. Ada Rehan and Lillian Russell; that the great tragedies and comedies, the stir ring, thunderous melodramas have per force given way to the roaring horse play farce, the frothy society drama, strung on string made of up-to- date lovemaking, and usually the peccadil- loes of a woman of jelly-fish compost ton; the spectacular machine play, hybrid drama and vaudeville.
 To a considerable extent this is true and the logical quiries arise: What are you going to do about it? What will come next with the opening of the new century? Will it bring us an era of great authors and master minds with the genius to interpret their works, or will the play-world wag along on the down grade at the pace it has been pursuing of late years?
 Let us abide in the hope that the al- ternative will not be realized.

SLAPPED JAvARY'S FACE. The Red-Whiskered Jenor Who
 Wanted His Picture Printed.

Contrary to tradition there Is once in decade or longer a good story connected with the stage that does not find it's way into print through the efforts of the hard worked press agent. The present narra- tive Is wan av thin,'' and shows to what lengths mans personal vanity will carry him; how the cultivation of the habit of seeing his picture in the papers became finally mania which led to serious re- suits and even the violation of his con- tract. The artist in question Is a famous tenor, who came here first with Patti. He is a little red-faced red-whiskered Frenchman, whose voice constitutes his attraction. However, he did not believe that his features would not charm the ladies, and hence the trouble. He appear ed here with the Tavary Opera Company and was to sing on Monday, the opening night Coming up from Los Angeles, the Sunday papers were received and to his horror Monsieur c. discovered that his portrait did not appear in any of the pa pers, and he nearly went into spasms, tearing his warm whiskers and indulging in choice French invective against the hard hearted press.
 The nearer the train approached San Francisco the madder he got, and finally he swore by all the gods of song that he would not sing on the opening night. When the opera people were convinced that he was in earnest there was a quar- rel, which terminated on the ferry. The male songster was ultimately told in the heat of passion that the publication of his

The Columbia

One half of the present season of the traWIey company at the Columbia Theater has expired, and they have been seen in variety of plays in which the abilities of the members have been dis played. Their success has been quite in keeping with the merits of the organza- tion Mir. Frawley selected largely for San Franciscos S ediicaton. Under the test Of comparison 1t is not as capable as its predecessor, for it does not contain the equals of a Blanche Bates, a Gladys Wallace or a Worthing, for the simple reason that there are not enough of such to go around, but, notwithstanding the handicap of comparison, the company has won a commendable position in the estimation of the theater-goers of this city Of the leading people who have met with special favor are Theodore Roberts, Edward M. Bell, Sam Edwards, Eleanor Carey, Madeleine Bouton and Cora Ifnnie. Roberts has made himselI a general favorite by his excellent work in such widely different roles as the pugi- list in Number g. Stockton in 'Aris- tocraey" to, !" the Indian in Tort ,Frayne," latter he proved himself the possessor of exceptional talent

The play, which is a translation from the French of Bis sOH olllu NdlIc, iieid ft uii OL oVV IlBHlS III New York, and met with proportionate success in all parts of the country, in- cluding this city. The plot turns on the treachery of a suitor in sending his rival to foreign lands by means of false let ter and thus clearing the field for his suc- cessful wooing. The fraud is discovered too late when the young wife and the former suitor meet at the French ball. The complications and fun grow out of the methods they pursue to punish the husband. the situations being highly amusing.

Inc Orpheum.

For the week opening tomorrow night the Orpheum announces an exceptionally attractive bill: the new people include James Thornton, the well-known song writer, author. of My Sweetheart's the Man in the Moon." Among the new songs he will introduce this week Is his latest, When You're in Love-" which has been very successful. For a novelty act Valoon and Anthelmine have been imported from Paris. They are said to be very clever in their line, which Is songs and dances of the Gay Paree' order. Joseph Hart and Carrie de Mar have number of new specialties to pre- sent in their clever comedy sketch, ''Dr. Chaunceys Visit" This versatile couple have scored great hit. The Macarte Sisters have some additional feats on the high wire, and Valmore, "the Instrument tai Man." has new limitations to offer

The play is picture of Scotch life In the olden times and is said to possess special attractions by reason of the beautiful stage settings, the odd costumes and the strange customs shown. The fourth act Is particularly exciting, portraying a desperate combat between the fierce clans which ends, of course, in victory for the right.

AS VIEWED BY PARIS EDITORS.
Americans Justified in Demanding a
Wnr indemnify.

PARIS, Nov. 5.--Referring to the peace
negotiations between Spain and the United
States, the Gaulois to-day says: The
memorandum of the Spanish commissioners
extended to forty pages of closely written
matter and included an objection to the sur
render of Manila, on the plea that it took
place forty-eight hours after the signing
of the peace preliminary. There was also
reassertion that the continued sovereignty
of Spain over the Philippines was evidenced
by the fact that this sovereignty had been
referred to by NJ. Cambon (the French am
bassador at Washington on the eve of sign
ing the peace protocol and was not OBJ
jected to by the American diplomats at the
time"
Continuing, the GauIois says: 'On the
whole the attitude of the Americans has
been encouraging to the Spaniards, and it
is likely that an agreement will be arrived
at after the election in the United States,
when the Republicans will show themselves
less exacting, being relieved of electoral
exigencies. The facts all point to this
ciusion, and indicate that the negotiations
will resolve themselves into simple finan-
cial discussion. 1t is hardly to be supposed
that America will restore the Philippines,
as those islands represent a substitute for
justified in demanding. Moreover. it must
be remembered the Americans have certain
moral obligations to discharge in regard to
the insurgents Having encouraged Aguin-
aldo in his operations. they are to some
extent obliged to see that the insurgents
are definitely released from Spanish domi-
nation. AS to intervention on the part of
Europe such contingency can only be
ina eined in case of II being clear that Spain
and America were not alone interested in
the matter. 1t remains to be seen whether
the other powers and Japan. notably, will,
without protest, see the newcomer in the
far East install herself in so important an
economic and strategic point"
The Matin says: The point of the Span
iards is well taken. The Paris conference
was TO confine itself TO single object es-
tablishing an agreement on the points of
detail summarized generally in the Wash
ington protocol. The Spaniards have kept
