EngIish's-"Thc Hoosier Doctor.

sllsn' s--''Inc AtOOSler DOCtOr.H
An audience that was entirely incom-
mensurate with the entertainment afforded
witnessed the presentation of 1.-The Hoosier
Doctor by Digby Bell and his excellent
supporting company at English's last night.
To those who have heretofore seen Mr.. Bell
only in his more boisterous roles, in which
he depended on fantastic costumes and live
~ antics to provoke laughter. his portrayal
of DR.. Willow, mild, polished. fun-loving
village physician, is a revelation. 1.-THE
Hoosier Doctor" is idyllic in it's simplicity,
being d beautifully told story of life in a
small town in Indiana, in which figure a
struggling doctor, his three daughters, a
widow, a cross and meddlesome old woman
and an equally prying but more even tenn
pered man. with several other people of
minor Importance. True, there is one slight
attempt at Sensationalism in the thWarted
White-capping scene, but the stir thus
created soon blows over and the piece goes
on once more in its equisitely smooth and
quiet manner. Augustus ThomaS's play is
one that aboundS in human interest, and the
plot is sufficiently intricate to arouse and
maintain curiosity to the very drop of the
curtain on the last act. Laura Joyce Bell
gives nearly faultless picture of a Grabbed
1ault-tinding, inquisitiVe old woman. Frank
Monroe as Higgins does an exceedingly
clever piece OF character acting, and Charles
Bunnell fills the role of Fred Darymple ac-
ceptably Another good bit of Character
acting is supplied by Miss Viola Miles as
AlVira, one Of the doctors three daughters
Miss Elsie Esmond as Martha and Miss
Margaret Dale Owen as Harriet each pro-
duced favorable impression by their inter
pretations of the characters assigned them
Much of the enjoyment of the performances
was due to little Baby Gertrude, who took
the part of Little Rosie, an orphan taken
TO raise by the doctor much against the
desire of the aforesaid grabbed old woman

Royalty on ~The Private secretnry.Y

Royalty ON "The Private Secretary,
Many guesses have been made by theater-
goers as to the cost of producing plays in
the lavish style in vogue at the Grand Opera
House this season, but it is not likely that
the item of royalty, or rent for the
privilege of using a play has figured in many
such estimates. Yet the stock company has
not produced a single play for which
good sized royalty has not been paid. In
the case of The Private Secretary" which
is being presented this week at the Grand
the managers were obliged to pay a double
royalty, or rather purchase the rights of
production in two versions of the same play
The Private Secretary" is of German
authorship. and was being produced with
great success in Berlin when it came under
the notice Of A. NJ. Palmer, then a prosper
Gus New York manager. He had a transla-
ton made, and secured the right to the
name of THE Private Secretary" A short
while afterwards Messrs. Brooks & Dick
son, then a well-known theatrical firm, also
secured translation of this play, and called
II The Secretary, or the Bookkeeper." When
both versions had been on the road about
five weeks, the former with Charley Coote
as the star. and the latter having its trans
lator Mr.. William Gillette in the principal
role, ii became apparent that the Gillette
version was far the better, whereupon Mr..
Palmer bought the rights and secured Gill
lette as the leading man for the company
which he started out on the road with the
new version. Several years ago Mr.. Palmer,
while in Chicago with his finances at low
ebb, sold a number of his plays at a sacrifice
10 Howard 4 Doyle. Among this number
We're Jim the Penman" and THE Private
Secretary The play he sold, however, was
the Gillette version, with the ill-htting title
Having previously sold his own version to
French & Son. of New York, he was power
less TO convey TO Howard & Doyle the right
10 use the name Of THE Private Secretary"
Accordingly. when the managers of the
Grand Stock Company desired To produce
the play they We're obliged to pay a royalty
to French K Son 10 secure the popular title
and another royalty TO Howard x Doyle to
get possession Of the better version.

"a OF CLUBS.

The hardest kind OF hard luck fig
ured in the first game Of the New Cas-
tie series, and Wheeling got the major
portion of it. 1t was a stubborn con-
test from the start. and it was like
pulling teeth to get q n across the
plate. Toward the latter part Of the
game, somebody brought the news
fror1 the city that the street railway
Estfike was settled. The ~bleacherites
beard it first. and several shouted in
Fchorus, The strike is settled" The
occupants of the grand stand answered
with a glad cheer. Nobody was hap-
| pier than President Howell. who can
now see his way clear to pocketing
some profits. The strike has had a very
bad eject upon the attendance at the
| games, and now that a first-class car
service will be provided, the crowds
are expected to be much larger.
Strawberry Pastorius undertook to
turn the trick for Wheeling, but ne
was not feeling well, and he found it
extremely difficult to locate the plate.

Harvard wonSall of the boat races to-
day-three victories over Yale in three
hours-and the western sky glowed
crimson this evening when the Har-
yard Varsity crew pulled over the fin
ish line and a half length ahead of
Yale. After eight years Of defeat the
students Of Cambridge are tasting the
sweets of success.
Harvard's University eight won from
| Yale over a four-mile course by six and
a half lengths in 20 minutes, 50 sec
onds. {
Harvard's freshmen eight won from
Yale over a two-mile course by two
and a half lengths in 9 minutes, SO and
a half seconds.
Harvard's substitute won from Yale
over a two-mile course by six lengths
in 10 minutes and So seconds.
The Harvard crews rowed a modif-
cation of the English stroke, coupled
with some features Of the stroke nulled
