DRAMATIC AND MUSICAL.
GRAND

|
A show with 'go,'' with that sort of spice
that appeals to the jaded taste, but which
is at the same time thing of delight to the
novice IN misunderstanding, which keeps
you On the Qui, vive all the time the curtain
Is up for the bright things in the libretto.
which Is tuneful in its musical numbers rich
| In its specialties and which abounds In beaut,-
| full stage pictures and pretty women-that Is
| what John F. Harley's "Gayest Manhattan
1t is the most pretentious musical farce
| comedy production that has been seen at the
Grand this season-or any other season, for
| the matter of that
1t is altogether a good thing. The company
is very large and extremely rich in costum-
ing, and in the cast are a number of people
any one OF whom is infinitely better than two
thirds of the stars seen in these days.
And 1t opened last evening at the Grand to
the banner house of the season; there was not
even standing room when the curtain went
up.
Mr.. Harley's young men and young women
are commercially versatile and they have a
great deal more to be funny over than most
people in farce. The piece Is review of the
famous features Of New York-in travesty, Of
course. The plot. and there is something Of
a plot, deals with the adventures of a per-
son, Hiram Prindle,'' from rural parts
He has two daughters, who are projected into
New York society unexpectedly, and he is
given an opportunity to see something of life
which opportunity he makes the best Of
until his life partner arrives and catches him
in the midst of very sporty set
Richard German is the Hiram Prindle' -
and he is exceedingly clever character
actor The part Is straight and he is the per-
son from the country in every line. Mr. Cor
man would compare favorably with the best
of them in bucolic studies. He is an actor
and comedian of real merit.
most charming little lady, clever singer
and dancer, and with personality that bub-
bed over with infectious merriment Is Miss
Jean McIlmoyle, who was cast as the rustic
daughter Of Prindle. Her singing of But
Wasn't 1t an Odd Place to Do It?'' was the
hit of the evening. The house testified It's
appreciation OF Miss McIlmoyle in repeated
recalls.
Miss Michelena is singer of great power,
and her rendition Of the intermezzo from the
"Cavalleria" was revelation of the capacity
of the company in pretentious music. Miss
Jennie Lewis sang some ballads most effect
ivelv.
Gus Pixley is not thing of beauty but he
is Joy forever. He did some clever char
acter work in his role of the pompous actor
but his old turn, THE Whistiing Coon, -
evoked storms of applause and he was not
| allowed to go until he was utterly exhausted
and had to refuse further encores
The company is a very large one, and there
Is not stick in the lot. The ballet did
some very clever work. is composed of pretty
girls, and-somethng rare for the up-to-date
ballet-was accorded three distinct recalls
Altogether, "Gayest Manhattan" is a not
| ably good show, given by more than ordi-
Marty clever people, and ought to fill the
house at every performance for the rest of
| the week.

ranks had been so decimated that 1T
only mustered PIP enlisted men and II
officers
After the close of the war the regi-
ment was filled to it's full fighting
strength by recruits and was sent back
to the West. 1t was stationed in Kan
sas. In 1859 half Of the Thirty seventh
regiment was consolidated with it. In
1874 the Third was sent on garrison
duty In the West and South. and in 1877
it was transferred to Helena, Mont
Gen. Brooke was then in command Of
the regiment, and was placed in COM
mand OF the department Of Montana.
Fighting In Montana.
While in Montana the Third regi-
ment saw active fighting against In
dams, and did much toward punish
ing the tribes that showed hostility to
the whites
The regiment was sent to Fort Shell
ing in 1888, and soon afterwards Gen.
Brooke was promoted to brigadier. The
command of the regiment was given to
Col. b. G. Mason, who retained it until
1885, when he was succeeded by, Col
j. H. Page, the present commander.
Since the regiment has been at Smell
Ing 1T has fought the Sioux and Chey-
ennes, but that is the extent of It's In
dian fighting during that period. IN
1893 1t was sent to Leech Lake ard
Montana to queIl labor troubles. For
the most part it's life at the fort has
been peaceful.
Fort Smelling is considered the most
desirable of the Western posts, and
there is not a man in the Third who Is
not sorry to leave it.

Provide the "sinews of War"

1t is high time that Mr.. Dingley and
Secretary Gage were considering the
matter of increasing the revenues, II
war, and not mere preparation for war,
is TO be engaged in. War, always ex-
persive, never carried the cost that will
be necessitated by the changed arma-
ments of both land and naval forces.
When it costs from $500 to $1,000 for a
single discharge of ere of the great
guns of a battleship naval battle is
going to be a very costly affair, even
if no loss of ships result. 1T cost a
million dollars a day to keep our armies
in the field during the civil war; and,
although the forces employed, should
war with Spain ensue, will be but a
fraction of those engaged then, the
OF warfare will bring the cost up to
the same immense figure.
When men talk about the cash on
hand" as some did when the fifty mill
ior-dollar appropriation was made,
they forget or ignore the fact that,
aside from the money obtained from
the Pacific railway sales, every dollar
in the treasury is borrowed money, the
remaining proceeds of the bond issues
of 1896. The first preparation should
be to strengthen the revenues. In spite
of the chortling of the partisan press
over the slight excess of receipts over
expenditures for February, the Dingley
act is not a producer of revenue for
even the ordinary expenses Of the gov
eminent, to say nothing of those which
will pile up with the opening Of hos
tilities. The receipts for March barely
equaled the expenditures, and since it's
passage it has fallen over fifty million
dollars short Of meeting the outgo.
There are but three avenues of rev.
enue open; increased taxation, borrow
ing on bonds, or a forced loan by issue
of legal tender notes. There is but
one right way Of doing it, and that is
by taxation. There should be no
lodging of the hardships of war by
throwing its cost onto future gem
Grafton. 1t will be sufficiently handi-
capped without the actual burden of
our action. 1t will be salutary to let
taxes to imports of tea and coffee IN
crease the beer tax dollar or more q
barrel. Then for what more is needed
levy direct tax upon the states. Con-
gress should not dodge responsibilities
If it assumes that of war, let it as
sumo also the unpopularity of imme-
date taxation to defray it's cost.

The United States care" or ais.


The United States are in a condition when
war with European nation seems immi-
nent.-St. Paul Globe.
In critical times like these neighbor,
the United States is and, as to its being
in "a condition. why, it's in condition all

Right. While the preponderance of au-
mands 'is."-Duluth News-Tribune.
1t is something for Republican pa
pers to admit that 1t is only in "criti-
cal times" that it is proper to speak
Of the United States in the singular
number. Since the Civil war their
tendency, following that of their par
ty, has been to magnify the Union and
minify the state. We heard more for
merly about the nation with a "big
NJ than Of recent years, but some re-
cent decisions of federal courts leave it
a matter of serious doubt If we do not
have it now, with states as provinces
exercising a limited police power.
But neither in these critical times
nor in any times can we speak or
should we write of the United States
as a single entity. There is no au-
thority for it; all authority is against
it. If the periods of danger, external
or internal, are urged to warrant it,
authority is still against it. 1t will
be conceded that 1912 was a Critical
time" and yet we have Monroe, secre-
tary of state, assuring foreign min
lister that the United States are re-
sponsible,' and we have President
Madison, In his war message to con-
gress Of June l, 1872, saying "the
United States have in vain exhausted
remonstrances." But both Monroe and
Madison, 1t may be objected, were
Democrats. Lincoln was exempt from
that disability, and we have him, in q
message to congress of July 10, 1861,
saying ''as the United States have"
1t will not be contended that June,
1861, was not a Critical time"

Although the officers at Fort Smelling
say that they do not know of any or

ready to obey it at moments notice.

MIR. Van SAINT has not merely failed, he has
become ridiculous Thanks to the ection of his
fool friends, he is on record as holding that
a governor ought upon leayirg the state house,
to be allowed to- name his own successor;
and that gubernatorial candidate should not
be a man of intellectually, integrity and
culture. This is not merely to show feeble
ness, it is to become laughable. The Republi-
cans of the Second district have performed a
notable service for the party in the state.
Mr.. Van SAINTS campaign, always hopeless,
has now become as injurious to the party as
it is impossible Of success.-Red Wing Re-

real particular. He is now posing, in his own

a little cheap neutrality-suspicious. Sun
The resolution presented to the State League

In this city tomorrow morning. Men
to the number Of about 10000 will prob

ruse to accept the Ohio scale and Penn

offer. 1t is thought likely the Ohio
scale entire will be accepted by the
operators. Two mines in Belmont
county have signed the Chicago scale.
and others will follow in rapid success
sion. These are the first Eastern Ohio
mines that have signed the new scale.
