she has lately created such an extraor-

Irwin sisters. known only 10 vaudeville,
and when we consider that since that
time Miss Irwin has been associated
prominently with Charles Frohman and
was for four years a member OF Au-
guStin Daly's company, we find that
she has literally worked her way to
the front and earned the enyiable posi-
ton she now occupies In the foremost
rank OF the profession.
There are several reasons for this.
In the first place Miss Irwin is genial

fellowship which makes one forget eN-
erything bur that he or she is In good
company. Miss Irwin is as good
stage manager as she Is a player and
all her pieces are produced under her
personal direction and supervision. Las!

The election of DIR. Elijah Williams
seems to give great satisfaction in Anne
Arundel, and the CAPITAL heartily &C
cords with the popular sentiment in favor
of his election The CAPITAL, though
Democratic. maintains its independent
views and on all occasions exercises its
perfect right to criticize candidates not
suited for political Office. The Demo
cratic State candidates and DR.. Williams
are entirely satisfactory to the masses.
and Anne Arundel would be better off
politically if men like DR.. Williams were
elected to public Office. He entered the
contest late. it is true. but he ''got there
all the same" He is a careful and con-
sentative Democrat and his popularity is
reflected in the Aattering vote he received
in his own district, where he ran far
ahead of the ticket and was elected
iriumphantly. THE CAPITAL extends
hearty congratulations to our new Demo
cratic Senator from Anne Arundel and
wishes him a continued successful politi-
cal career.

ONE Of the causes contributing to the
result OF the Democratic victory in Mary
land was the persecution of Admiral
Schley by the Navy Department. Be-
log Schley's native state, it was but natu-
raj that his friends should take special
notice of the scandal. The President
was warned on this point several months
a 20, and those who gave him the warn
ing were prominent republican friends of
Schley who were in a position to know
whereof they spoke.

THE CAPITAL extends its commisera-
ton TO its Democratic friends who lost
the gallant fight they made in the recent
election. II was not their fault they
were not elected, but the majority of
voters who decreed otherwise. They
must not get discouraged. but pick their
flint and be sure the powder is the palm.
