The Chicago Inter Ocean," of October
.. had this TO say of Mason Mitchell, the
warrior actor who will be among the fea-
lures offered next week at the Grand ::
"One OF the best things in vaudeville that
has gladdened the hearts of theatregoers
is furnished by Mason Mitchell, fighter and
player, who now appears in the role OF
lecturer and recounts the experiences of
the Rough Riders. The large audiences
at the Dearborn have taken most kindly
to the handsome soldier who modestly tells
a thrilling story of the battle of San Juan.
When he appeared in the familiar uniform
OF Rocsevelt's dashing followers he was
warmly received. He was wounded by
shell in the first battle and had hospital
service as a supplement to field service.
but a splendid constitution has left him
the expositor of the heroic deeds of he
ro.c men. His narrative of the Rough
Riders share in the stormng Of Santiago
is necessarily brief, but 1t Is thrilling in
interest and is illustrated by pictures
enough 10 satisfy the most exacting The
story has bee ntold in the papers. but its
glory is unfaded, and Mr.. Mitchell gives it
an earnest style that adds new and vital
interest to the terrible scenes enacted
about Santiago"

THINGS THEATRICAL.

With a record of unqualified successes
behind him and an independent fortune in
his possession as a result of the business
tact that made those successes profitable.
Charles oHoyt has written a new farce and
will present it for the first time on any
stage Monday night at the Lafayette
Square Opera House. This work. which
has been, dubbed "a Dog in the Manger,"
is to emphasize the return of the author
from the field of labor marked by his "A
Day and A Night in New York" to that
with which his "a Texas Steer" was iden-
tilted. OF his wisdom in coming back to
this style there can be little doubt, and
still less that this latest offering will prove
quite as 4alluring as were any OF the ear
lier ones. The sale of seats for the pro-
duction began Thursday and is progress
ing most satisfactorily.
Matthews and Bulger, who are shortly to
present their newest hit at the National
Theatre, belong to the class of comedians
who, making no pretence Of having es-
tablished school of humOr, has neyerthe-
less produced some of the greatest celeb
rites the American stage has ever known.
only dead men become famous" and so
this duo has not yet been credited with all
the cleyerness it has evinced. but IL is true
tnat no Two laugh proVokers before the
public have striven harder or with better
results for the appreciation Of theatre
goers. The vehicle in which the stars are
to be seen this year has been dubbed by
the SADIE Sea Waves and is said TO be one
of the funniest offerings they have ever
made. The local engagement is for one
week with the usual matinees.
When Hyde's Comedians" begin their
next weeks engagement at the Columbia,
students of the theatre will notice that
Mcintyre and Heath have removed from
their repertoire the old conversation over
a trunk that has been SO long feature
of their act. This bit of business has
served them in one form or another for
nearly decade and is said never to have
failed in provoking uproarous laughter
The matter which has been substituted,
however, is supposedly quite as comic as
the other, while it win bear signs of new
ness that were lacking in the former ef
fort. Other members of the Hyde com
bination who will be seen to advantage
here are Helene Mora, Charles Sweet, Can
field and Carleton and The Century

EXCURSIONS.

Visitors in the city should not go home
without going to Mount Vernon, the home
and tomb of Washington. The most de-
lightful and historic route is by the ele-
CANT iron steamer Charles Manchester
which leaves It'll street wharf every week
day at 10 am. and 80 pm. This route
with the quick service and only one hours
running time in either direction, gives the
sightseer a pleasant sail of thirty-two miles
on the historic Potomas, with an oppor-
tunity to see Arlington, Alexandria, Fort
Foote Fort Washington. Fort Hunt and
many other places of notable interest along
the shores of Maryland and Virginia This
company Is the only one permitted to sell
admission tickets to the grounds and man
sion of Mount Vernon. There is also an
elegant cafe on the steamer. The steamer
stops at Marshall Hall on both the morn
ing and afternoon trips.

AN oRPHANAGE WANTED.



Mrs. Kathleen Kennedy, who is raising
funds for the Methodist board of missions
to establish an orphanage for children of
reconcentrados living about Matanzas, in
Cuba, was in the city yesterday on her way
to Martinsburg. w. Va. The barracks for
merly used by the Spaniards. she says, have
been given up by the Matanzas authorities
for this work. and about 200 orphans can
be accommodated there. One hundred have
already been put in the institution.
Mrs. Kennedy declares that help is need
ed most urgently among these people in
order that they may become self-sustain-
ing. The children are bright and anxious
to learn, and but little is required to help
them along. The advent of the Americans
has done much to arouse the people out OF
their sluggishness, and especially Is this
noticeable among the women. Under the
old regime immortality was propagated by
reason of the enormous fee exacted for
marriage lcenses-s1O1-and since this has
been reduced to a minimum by the Ameri-
cans the people are coming along eager to
be honorably welded.
Mrs. Kennedy hopes to interest the
Kings Daughters in her work. and declares
that as soon as the children have been
taken care of a woman's exchange will be
opened, where those who will shall have an
opportunity to earn respectable living and
become self-supporting.

Aunt Polly jackson, an elderly colored
woman who lived for many years in Click
alley and vicinity. was burned to death in
her home in the alley about o'clock last
night. A daughter of the old woman was
attracted to the upper floor by her mother S
screams, and hurrying to her she found
her clothing burning
The frightened girl hardly knew what to
do. but she ran to the street and screamed
for help
Peyton Johnson. a neighbor, ran and
turned in an alarm from box 213 This
brought the fire department to the house,
but by the time the firemen arrived Aunt"
Polly almost dead. Her garments had
been burned from her body and she pre-
scented d horrible appearance.
The fremen found but little to do. for, be-
sides the old woman's clothing. the bedding
was all that was burned. DR.. Connor of
Freedmens Hospital was called in and
found that death had already taken place.
1t is believed the accident was the result
of overturning the coal oil lamp, for the
