OPERA HOUsE-Friday night, Sowing
the Wind;'' Wednesday, matinee and night,
Under the Red Robe"
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1899-11-23

"Under the Red Robe" fresh from
its New York triumphs at the Empire
Theatre, will be the welcome attraction
at the Opera House Wednesday MAJ
inee and evening. The company. I'M
der the direction of Mr.. julius Calm, is
said to be one of great strength and
merit. The scenery. costumes and
general stage effects will be exact coun-
terparts of those which were so much
admired during the phenomenal run of
this play in the metropolis. where it
drew crowded houses up to its last per-
formances, achieving altogether one OF
the most brilliant successes ever known
in the theatrical history of New York.
This is one of the fortunate cities Sc
lected by Mr. Calm to witness this not
able production. Mr.. Paul Cazeneuve
will enact the leading role, that of Gil
De Berault, a gamester, duelist and
swashbuckler. This manly young ac-
tor has distinguished himself in many
roles at the leading New York theatres,
but in none has he appeared to such
perfect advantage as in Under the
Red Robe"
There were small audiences at the
Opera House yesterday afternoon and
evening, to witness really meritorioua
productions by Mr.. Harrison J. Wolfe
and company. Mr.. Wolfe is an excel
lent actor. his work in Hamlet"
stamping him as one of the most prom
inent young aspirant for histrionic
honors upon the American stage. He
has evidently given deep and consci-
entious study of Shakespeare's master
piece. His conception of the role of
the Melancholy Dane" is not a mad
man, but he makes the Denmark
princes apparent insanity means to
an end, the end being proof more sat
isfactory to him than the vision of the
dead King. His reading OF the lines
was perfect. and he never fell into the
error of overriding the part. At the
close of the fourth act he.received two
enthusiastic curtain calls. Whether
or not it was the conventional Ham
let" which Mr.. Wolfe presented, it was
delightful performance, and much
superior to his David Garrick," or his
work in the dual role in ''The Corsican
Brothers" Mr.. Wolfe is ambitious, and
is securing recognition from the drae
matte critics Unfortunately, however,
popular taste-depraved it may be
does not demand classic productions.
When James, Hanford, and kidder are
compelled to combine to insure profit
able box Office receipts, and other we'll
known legitimate actors are driven ia
to the romantic dramas to earn live
iihood, it smacks of audacity for such
young and comparatively unknown
actor as Mr.. Wolfe to attempt to do
business where they have failed. This
does not affect the point of merit, how
ever. for Mr.. Wolfe has merit. and
deserves to succeed.

Consul at Apia.

Chicago, Jan. 20.-A clash between
the German consul in Samoa On one
hand and the representatives of the
United States and Great Britain on the
other, as reported Wednesday, threat
ems the most serious complications. The
German agent broke into the supreme
court building at Apia and took posses
sion, ostensibly in the interests of King
Mataafa. The American and British con-
suls elected him. There was no violence
beyond this.
The United States government on
Thursday addressed sharp note to the
German embassy at Washington on the
subject of the intrigues in Samoa. 1t
was reported that the tenor of the COM
munication was such as would be likely
to cause a stir in Berlin. There was a
good deal of war talk at the depart
ments in Washington, following dip

the secretary of state, the British am
bassador and representative of the

AGREE ON ONE POINT.
Committee of Miners and Operators
Decide on the Eight Hour
Day for 1899.

Pittsburgh, Pa, Jan. 21.-The Post
says: Eight hours work for one day
shall be the rule in the coal mines of
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and 1lli-
nois during the next year, beginning
April 1, 1899. This was agreed after
midnight by The subscale committee of
operators and miners who are to dis
pose of the wage question for the next
year. The sessions of the committee
were secret and every member was put
under an obligation not to give any,
thing out for publication. This con-
clusion was arrived at after the mem
bers of the committee had receded
from their position of demanding a
reduction of ten cents in the rate of
mining. The arguments on both sides
were strong. The miners members of
the committee argued that the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, with which
they were affiliated, are at their back,
and it would not do to recede from the
concession granted by the operators
at Chicago one year ago.
