Man from Mexico Is as funny as Nat
Goodwin ever was. and l can pay him no
higher compliment. The public doesn't
know, l believe, that Mr.. Collier wrote
the greater part of The Man from Mex
leo and that for over nine-tenths of the
laughs in that very funny second act ne Is
responsible as author as Wei as actor. He
tells me that be has new comedy which
he viii try upon some gentle dog when the
robins nest again. The comedy is entirely
his own composition and he is naturally
very anxious about its production. He is
a wonderfully bright and original man
and SO thoroughly drenched in stage ira
e.tlon and practical knowledge that / viii
take chances and prophecy a big success
for his new play.

TT seems strange that a playwright
J. should palm of on an unsuspecting
public such picture OF the late war as
Remember the Maine" which held the
boards at the Third Avenue theater last
week In attempting TO explain it the
management states that Mr. Garter wrote
the piece hurriediy so az to get the show
on the road while the action of the con-
fiict was still fresh iii the minds of the
people. tame excuse is usually better
than aone at all. but In this case the rule
does not hold good. There IS absolutely
no reason why the piece should ever have
happened. In dash.ng it together Carter
did ROT even take the trouble 10 study
the ethics OF naval customs and yet he
calls IL IA naval drama. There may be
thousands Of people who do not know
that such a spectacle as a drunken Chi
nese cook aboard a war ship and es-
pectaiiy on the quarter deck among Off
GERS and ladies. is most fragrant bur
lesquc on the navy. but there are as
many thousands 10 whom such a sight Is
nauseating. TO say the least
The American people are proud OF their
magnificent navy and worship at the
shrine nf Dewey. Schley and others, and
they evince sufficient interest In them
to read not only of their achievements
but of their life aboard ship. Is Ii any
wonder. then. that such plays as Re
member the Maine are not literally pa
tronized.

ment, today:
For the purpose Of demonstrating
still further the qualities Of the sham

World and Daily Mail of London have
agreed rs offer a cup t. 10 sailed for by
Shamrock ana Columbia in an extra

The Evening World and the London

ton that further test be made ana
that it shall include change ol crews.
SO that we shall settle the question
whether the men who spil Columbia
are superior in seamcnship to the men
who sail Shamrock. This test can only
be shown by permitting Columbia's
crew to sail Shamrock and Shamrocks
crew to sail Columbia
If MeSsrs. Isclin and Upton should
not deem this plan oxpeCient the Even
ing World and London Mail will Offer
another cup to he sailed for by the two
course agreed upon.
Sir Thomas Upton has often eX-
pressed his belief in the superiority Of
his boat in the right sort of wind. He
said he would like to have another con

in any but windward race.

The Shamrock's spinnaker came in at

the wind to be about west by north,
which meant that if it held in that

tack to lay his course for the finish
without making another tack. One
minute and 20 seconds after rounding
