Waits of New York. :"

The usual Monday night audience greet
ed Katie Emmett last night at the Acade-
my of Music and applauded heartily her
production of that perennial melodrama,
THE Waits of New York" 1t is said
that the average playwright doesn I
know that there is a city in this country
except Gotham and Miss Emmett's drama
is only a fair sample of the general Met
ropolitan play. In il the hero is consist
emily heroic, the villain, villainously VII
famous and the heroine, comfortably
sweet and pretty. The production was
well staged many of the settings being
very good indeed. although a few of the
actual scenes did not materialiZe. Miss
Emmett herself is, as ever, charming
and winsome. She invested her lines with
considerable sprightliness and certainly
succeeded in pleasing her audience. The
remainder of the cast were fair. their
specialties being especially noteworthy.

DRILLING NEW RECRUITS.
Minneapolis Armory Scene of Great
Activity.

More public interest than ever centered
about the Minneapolis armory last evening,
and more enthusiasm In the wotk of prepa-
ration was apparent. Not that the oificers
or men prepare to enter actual service lightly
vainly. Nothing can be more business
like and transformations than the manner IN
which they 60 about the work Of enlistment.
But there Is an undercurrent of patriotism
which increases in volume to keep pace with
the increase Of the membership Of the COM
panies.
Bennett, and squad drills of some Of the new
men were conducted by the various COM
panies. Company had thirty-fve new men
on the floor, being put through their first
PAGES. The floor and the gallery Of the
armory were crowded with sightseers of al
descriptions, particularly interested in the
diminishing drill of Battery B. in which one

missed Capt. Bean addressed the men
again in company quarters.
Saturday, The said, will be the
eighteenth anniversary Of this COM
pany's organization. We hoped to cele-
brate it here, but the events of today
make 1t extremely probable that We
will celebrate it in the field. I cannot
say what I would like TO. This has
been an evening that will always re-
main a pleasant memory with me. We
may never again drill together as we
did tonight. We may not all be to-
gether under similar circumstances
again. We have camped together,
travelled together, and had good times
together, and now we expect to be
called upon to fight together. 1 know
every man will face the enemy with
out flinching. God only knows what
is in store for us. Whatever 1t may
be we will meet it bravely."
Of the sfxty-three members of the
company sixty were present last night.
The absentees are in other states and
have notified Capt. Bean that they will
be ready to go with the company
whenever it Is sent and at whatever
time.
In every company room recruits were
being received last night and drilled
in the rudiments of the manual Of
squads and the instructors took pains
to teach them the proper way to hold
their guns and hands and feet The
men are learning rapidly and within a
week the raw recruits will be able to
make creditable showing on the main
floor.
Battery A will have drill tonight
and every one interested in military
evolutions is invited to witness it.
The captains Of all the companies
want to impress upon the minds of all
recruits, and old soldiers as well, that
as soon as a call for volunteers is
issued by the president they will be
expected to appear at the armory pre-
pared to start tosthe front.
The state will be required to fur
nish uniforms and equipments for the
volunteers, and this is going to be a.
big item in the states war account
There are three infantry regiments
and two batteries in the state already
uniformed, but there will be many new
volunteers who will require clothing.
