THINGS THEATRICAL.

In the repertoire of three pieces which is
to last throughout the Louis James -Kath-
ryn Kidder-Charies B. Hanford week at
the National Theatre there are two reviyais
that should prove to be of especial interest
to the thinking among playgoers. One of
these is THE School for Scandal, which is
to be done on Monday and Friday evenings
and at the Wednesday matinee; the other
is The Winters Tale" which will be
shown ON Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day evenings and at the Saturday matinee
THE School, is undoubtedly the most
charming and witty of English comedies
A century of continued favor has not dulled
the edge of its humor for it is of the steel
of human nature. The objects of its satire
and rainery are as much a part of social
composition now as when Richard BTinsiey
Sheridan was the beau of London and stole
moments between hours of dissipation in
which TO temper with immortal fun the
weaknesses of his fellow men .'The Win
ter's Tale takes unto itself extraordinary
aspects, too, if only because it has not been
seen here since eleven years ago, when
Mary Anderson attempted its dual role.
Macbeth" will be given on Saturday night
at the National and will complete what
should be most enjoyable series of pro-
ductions.

TEMPORARY ROLL CLERKS.
The Attorney General Decides That
They May Not he Transferred.

The Attorney General has rendered the
opinion that Government clerks On the
temporary rolls, not having been certified
for their positions by the Civil Service
Commission, may not be transferred TO the
permanent rolls of the department
The opinion was rendered in answer TO
request from the State Department for
construction by the Attorney General OF
the meaning of the amendment TO rule s
of the Civil Service rules recently promul-
gated by the President 1t has been the
belief of many who have desired to Sc
cure permanent positions, and OF some OF
the Government officers, that the amend
ment was intended to allow any clerk on
the temporary rolls TO be transferred 70 a
permanent position under the protection OF
the Civil Service.
A large number of clerks are affected by
the ruling of the Attorney General. The
greater part of the appointments made for
the extra forces necessary during and after
the Spanish American War were made by
the heads of different departments and bu-
reaus without certification from the Civil
Service Commission.
No official mention has been made OF
the opinion at either the State Department
of the Department of Justice, but its ex-
istence was discovered yesterday and
caused some CONSERVATION among tempo
rary roll clerks.

ADMIRAL DEwEY's SHIPS.
Vessels He Has Commanded Since
Entering the Navy.

Rear Admiral Philip Hichborn, Chief
Constructor of the Navy, has compiled a
list of the vessels on which Admiral Dewey
served since his entrance into the naval
service. with a statement showing the
length of time Admiral Dewey was at
tached to each. Curiously enough Admiral
Dewey never commanded a modern steel
warship, and never served on any until he
raised his flag on the Olympia. The only
vessel of the new navy which he COM
manded was the despatch boat Dolphin
The statement shows that his first service
was on the Wabash as a midshipman in
1858. He was on the Pawnee up 10 the
beginning of the Civil War, during which
he served suecessiyely on the Mississippi
the Brooklyn, the Agawam, the Colorado,
and the Kearsarge. After the war he re-
turned to the Colorado. His first command
was the Narragansett in 1870, and after
wards he commanded in that order the
Supply, the Narragansett, the Juniata, the
Dolphin and the Pensacola His next
command was the Asiatic station.

There are perhaps few stars in the the
atrical armament who have received the
critical appreciation that has all but always
been meted out to Creston Clarke During
the several years spent as leading man and
as legitimate headiner-if one may borrow
term from the vaudeville press agents
few reviewers have set forth consequential
objections to his work This has been par
ticularly true of Mr.. Clarkes efforts in
Shakespearean drama. That it has also
come TO be true of his romantic imper-
sonations the following lines, clipped from
a baltimore paper, will testify:
As romantic actor he is striking, interesting.
and forcefuL His art has always the true ring;
at once tine and strong, its most striking charac-
terlstic is the intellectual force which pervades
all his work. His comedy is easy and spon-
taneo1s, and his pathos subtly touching. But it
is as tragic actor that he Is at his best, and in
the realm which is his own, he proves his posses
sion of that word which talent easily app.op. ates
and which even mere skill abuses-'.fhe light
which never was and land''-the divine
spark of genius-that power which pours vital
from the mind of the spectator, and the charac-
ter itself stands in flesh and blood reality before
the eye.
When one realizes of how few folk this
may be said honestly he is tempted TO
join in the note of praise without waiting
to discover how well this praise may be
deserved. Mr.. Clarke viii be seen next

ing travesties that really were full OF wit

a better still is promised in "Cyrano de

all it's undoubted worth, Rostand's 'Cyrano
