ADJUSTMENTS.

The Daley company opened it's fall
engagement of one week at the Clunie
opera House last night to a large and
thoroughly well pleased audience. The
play was THE New South,' we'll con-
structed drama of sustained interest
plenty of action, spirited dialogue and a.
pretty vein of comedy running through
a tragic, but charming love story Dar-
rel Vinton, the leading man, fully sus-
tanned the promise made for him. He
is an intelligent, forceful, cultured and
painstaking artist. Miss Nannary was
at her best as the heroine. In fact, with
maturity Miss Nannary is distinctly
improving, shaking off something of in
dividuality and assuming more and
more the thought of the creation she
interprets. Her work last night was
Very nearly flawless. The support was
good, presenting Mr.. Daley in negro

character of a type rarely seen upon
the stage. 1t was a pleasure to see
Louis Belmour again upon the boards
after long absence from them He
never would have conceded that he
could sustain the role of an aged, but
spirited and proud Southern planter as
ne ala. He was certainly a surprise
to those familiar with his style these
many years. Mrs. Belmour and Misses
Madison and Villien are of the COM
pany and give satisfaction, the latter
especially, as the soubrette is much
more than clever. Mr.. Willard and Mr..
McGlnn had trying roles and enacted
them to the call of the text. Both are
genteel and experienced players. Mr..
Nannary, as the young physician,
lacked the dignity and repose one of that
profession should have. He reads we'll
enough, except that he is too stiff and
declamatory-and then, could not he
give such a role something of the bear
ing 1T should have, by at least wearing
his hat as a physician of seif-respect
and social favorite must be presumed
to employ it? One can scarce respect
the family doctor who comes on at all
times with headgear worn as the tough
boy delights to sport it. Mr.. Daley in
an lnterlude gave the latest coon song
excellently and was warmly recalled.
The company is distinctly stronger and
better than when here last and finishes
its work with greater nicely and broad
er intelligence of the subject it pre-
sents. Tonight the latest farce COM
edy success, "a Model Husband" 1t
involves the intrigues and mishaps OF
one "Bassett,'' former bachelor club
man. He and his wife leave home at
the same time, the husband writing the
wife a note to be mailed from New
York. But by the loss of the letter and
BasSett's overcoat in a railroad wreck,
complication arises, supplemented by
a flStic argument between BaSsett and
a barkeeper that results in sending
the former home in a badly damaged
condition. From that point compl1ca-
tions multiply and the mirth grows
furious.
Wednesday night the company will
present Hamlet" with Mr.. Vinton as
the Prince of Denmark. 1t will be the
first time that Hamlet" has been pre-
sented in this city by a road stock
company or at popular prices" Man
lights stated that he presumed surprise
would be awakened by the announce
ment that a repertoire company would
essay the greatest of Shakespeare
plays, but he declared Mr.. Vinton's S
Hamlet to be one of high character
and superior to that of many another
and more pretentious artist.

The Williams vaudeville show on
Seventh street, between K and L, gave
a performance last night. There was
a large attendance, and the program
was evidently popular with the audi
ence. Robert, the double-toned singer,
made a.decided hit, and a strong man,
known as the Midget Sandow," was
repeatedly cheered. There will be matt
nee and evening performances each day
during the week and many interesting
features are promised.

Effect Of Policy to Be Adopted by the
 Three Powers.
 The questions now come up, says the Independent: Will the three govern ments interested be able to work in harmony and will the general effect be educatIye on the people. tending to- ward the development of the power oR self-goyernment? As to tEa former, much will depend on the ultimate pur. pose of the governments. If the islands are to be exploited for the prime advantage of Germany, England and the United States, then we can scarcely expect anything else than 9 renewal of the criminations and re- criminacions of the past years and harmony may as well be thrown so the winds If on the other hand, 1t is made evident that in the conduct of the government of the islands Che first thought IS what will be best for them. even if it involves some sacrifice of other interests, then there is no req son why there should not be a happy and prosperous future for the commu- nity. Upon the same thing depends the answer to the second question That the Samoan can rise to self-goy- ernment few, if any. will deny Whether he will attain to 1t, however. is very different question: If he is made to feel that he is simply an agent to further German-E English-American trade interests, his keenness may be developed, but not his character. That will only come by recognizing his man. hood, trusting while at the same time guiding his judgment. stirring his ann bitiop by opening to him new oppor- tunities.

TRAINING CHILDREN.
When All the Family Help, Work I

When All the Family Help, Work Is
 Easy.
 When right-minded parents once see the benefits their children may derive from manual training they will eer- tainly plan for them to have 1t, says Table Talk. One mothers desire to have her daughter learn housework led her to dismiss her servants and herself share the work that her object might be accomplished under her own care- ful supervision. Nor was this done in spirit of martyrdom, but one of wholesale joyousness, remembered by both years after with the greatest pleasure One cannot teach the dig nity of labor who does not feel it and it is only to those who look upon it as degradation that it becomes such. When in the course of human events the maids places become vacant, as is apt to happen in the best regulated families, the members thereof usually sit about bemoaning the disjointed condition of the universe. In one fam fly l know of, when such occasion comes, each member takes part; even the boys attack the -be-washed dishes and the paterfamilias does not lose caste in the community by lend ing a hand when at home in either the cause of cleanliness or cooking. He can sweep and dust room as deftly as any maid, cook meal and even make bread rather better than the most of them, all without making a muss or losing his temper Temper? Why, it is at it's sunniest on such oc- casions-the entire family really rather enjoy the frolics they make of them. Their motto seems to be "Helpfulness versus helplessness."

remember hearing the following story from the late Canon Bardsley. author of English Names and Sur names" There was once a woman "a little 'crackey, I think" said the canon, by way of parenthesis-who had a son whom she had christened What" Her idea seems to have been that when in after days he was asked his name, and kept saying What" amusing scenes would follow, which was likely enough. especially if the boy was careful to pronounce the as- pirate. Such a scene did, I believe, occur once when he went to school, and was told, as a newcomer, to stand up and furnish certain particulars What is your name?' asked the teacher What" blurted out the boy. amid the laughter of the class. What is your name?" asked the master again, with more emphasis. What, :" replied the boy. Your name. sir!" roared back the infuriated pedagogue What, What!" roared back the terri fed urchin.
