DRAMATIC AND MUSICAL.
METROPOLITAN.

ga Gilded Fool was made famous by
and made famous that popular American
comedian, Nat Goodwin. 1t is no discred-
it to Mr.. Goodwin that in the hands OF
the Neill Stock company "A Gilded Fool
has lost none of the intense interest that
1t inspires. The presentation of Garlic
toms comedy at the Metropolitan last
night was in line with the artistic work
of the popular stock company that st.
Paul has come to regard as a part Of its
theatrical world. The company seemed
at. it's best last night, and the perfect
stage settings added to the~attractive-
ness of Goodwin.s fayorite production.
There was much curiosity as to how the
title role would be carried by Mr.. Neil:
1t is a difficult role, that might tax even
his remarkable versatility but he was
equal to the task His Chauncey Short
was natural. There was no part that was
overdone. In the love scenes with Edythe
Chapman, as Margaret Ruthven, daugh-
ter of the Wall street banker, natural
ness added it's charm and captiYated the
audience. The "Gilded Fool'' has many
divergent moods to portray. Mr.. NeiH
added to his laurels by not overriding his
work, and, assisted by his splendid COM
pany, gave st. Paul theatergoers a high
priced production at popular figures that
it would be difficult for even q Goodwin
to improve upon
Miss Chapman was also at her best,
and pleased with her earnestness She has
splendid opportunities in the comedy, and
improved upon them. Herschel MayalIs
Bannister Strange is a masterpiece of
acting. Locally prime favorite, Mr.
Mayall added to his list of admirers by
his clever work as the finished. high-class
villain There is more danger, perhaps,
in his. role than in, any other in the COM
edy of OVERRIDING. Mr.. Mayall was nat
ural. His lines were rendered with the
same finish that characterized his facial
portrayal of the uemotions of the charac-
ter, and he shared with the other mem
bers of the company in the praise and
plaudits accorded. Lila Vane as Nell

SHOTS AT THE STATE PRESS.

After all, a good many editors of this

doVe-lfke gentleness which characterized
a Mr.. Pease, of Anoka, has been tried
bit too far. He is a man noted for his
keen wit in using lower case letters for

SOME OF OUR DRAWBACKS.

There are few we'll informed Americans
that will now deny that in many of the
most needed social and political reforms
the United States are behind even the
less progressive countries of Europe. OF
course We have set the pace for Europe
in many directions which lead up to the
general betterment. But we have Jagged
in our progress and have permitted
European communities to leave us shame
fully far in the rear in many respects.
In the one most important particular of
sound, sensible and economical city local
government, for instance, we are so far
behind the British in practice as to be
by comparison nation of barbarians. Wa

A FRIENDLY RULER.

William of Germany has been the OBJ
ject Of good many bad jokes and of a
lot Of foolish satire since his accession
to the throne He has especially COM
mended himself to the American car
toonist and humorst. Yet the young
ruler seems to go on his way quite serene
ly. and showed his good sense recently
by the heartiness of his laugh at the
verses sung by that now distinguished
American humorist, Capt. Coghlan, of the
United States ship Raleigh.
1t is observable concerning this young
man that he has never made his or his
peoples love for the United States the
subject of his addresses from the throne.
Indeed, he has never been known to have
passed more than one or two compli-
ments on this great republic of ours in
the past few years. Yet the idea is TAX
ing possession of the minds Of a good
many Americans that, notwithstanding his
strong prediction toward the theatrical
way Of doing things, he Is. as ruler of
5OOSA
friend of the United States of America.
His influence has been exercised on quite
a number of occasions lately In the con-
duct of German affairs in a manner to
arouse the hostility of those who dis
like Americans. His recall of his fleet
from the harbor Of Manila was at once
a decidedly clever stroke of diplomacy
as we'll as a decided act of friendship.
His recent attitude on the question of
the importation of American breadstuffs
into the German empire aroused the op-
position of the anti-American sentiment
among the public men and business in
terests of Germany His backing of the
great canal system against the bitter
antagonism of the Agrarians shows that
he Is an advanced man and values the
welfare of his people too highly to allow
any special interests to stand in the
path of his projected reforms.
The methods of the German emperor
are not the methods of American states

and inspired by the divine right to de-
termine just what is and what is not

pie. But whatever his manner may be,
the matter of his rule since he discarded
Bismarck has shown a degree and quality
of craftsmanship, which is not a COM
mon commodity by any means among
European rulers. He appears to be in
tent in his own resolute fashion on carry
ing into substantial operation the bless
| ings which were designed to flow from
the grand conceptions of statecraft out
of which the German empire sprang. It.
is true that he holds the heavy iron hand
of militarism above his people. But if
that were once relaxed in the present:
state of European political society the
days Of the German empire would be

If we must have militarism as the DOM
mating influence In the life of a given
nation, by all means let it be the militar-
| ism OF young William, which has gone
hand in hand with the uplifting of the
commerce and industries of Germany to
an extent never before dreamed Of, and
which is the surprise and envy of Eu-
ropean nations.

WHAT'S THE MATTERf

are even more puzzling than those which
preceded them. Day after day the point
of view changes, and 1t is somewhat
dangerous to express an opinion on the
basis of the current intelligence. The

Tomorrow no doubt, we will be treated

has the most unlimited confidence in
Otis, and that he has and will continue
to have the most absolute carte blanche.
The situation is really beyond all rea-

the beginning If one were disposed to

the war in the Philippines, the indirec-

have attended events at Manila since

The wretched situation ought to be
forced to a conclusion. The bowls of an
imperialistic press will not enable it to
be maintained much longer. Men will
soon tire of seeing the power and In

back and forth In the Philippines as In
a game of battledore and shuttlecock.
If we have not enough men in Manila
to put an end to the miserable business,
why, In the name of all that is reason
able, do we not send enough there? If
we have, why not bring matters to a
close? If we are to adjust the situation
through the peace commission, why then
let us do it. If we are, as the latest
censored dispatches indicate, to depend

the Filipinos have shown remarkable
ability to recover from disasters. and
another battle is expected to take place
