AT THE THEATRES.

"Phroso," that charming story bv
Anthony Hope which was dramatized
and had so successful a run at the Empire
Theatre in New York last season,
will be seen at the New National Theatre
next week, November 9th. under most
favorable circumstances. The title role
will be in the capable hands OF Miss
Odette Tyler, who is acknowledged to
be one OF the best interpreters Of light
heroic roles in the stage world today
She will be assisted BY a specially
selected company Of unusual merit,
Charles Frohman presents the star and
the play and announces that the scenic
production will be on the same magnii'
cent scale as was seen at the Empire
Theatre during the long and successful
run oil "Phroso" there. MISS Tyler
needs no introduction to theatre patrons.
Her recent Shakesperean tour, as we'll
as her remarkable success as Caroline
Milford in Secret Service" are well
remembered but great as was her sue
cess in these roles II is not to be com
pared with her triumph as the Lady OF
Neapolia. Hope 's,herOine is delightful
composite of girlsn whims, petulancY,
williulness, and womanly tenderness.
This mixture so intensely feminine
gives Miss Tyler an exceptionally good
opportunity to display her remarkable
talents, and she is declared to be ideal in
the part. The story of "Phroso" has
gained rather than lost inithe dramatiza.
tion, which begins on the island at the
time Of Lord Wheatley's arrival when
he finds the head ruler, old SteianoPou
los, murdered by his nephew Constan'
tine, who is about to murder his wife
also that he may marry Phroso. The
natives are in an uprOar against the sale
OF the island to a foreigner. Wheatley
takes a hand in the affair with true
British pluck ard soon finds himself in
no end of trouble. He falls in love with
Phroso, and Phroso falls in love with
him, Their attempts to escape are iOiled
on every hand, and il looks very bad for
all concerned when Mauraki Pasha, the
Turkish Governor, arrives. He rescues
Wheatley from death, but adds TO the
complications by declaring that he, and
he only, shall wed the fair Phroso. It is
here that the dramatic story really
begins. Then follows one Of the most
Cleverly devised set of dramatic COM
plications ever conceived. Itis PhrOso's
hand for the prize, and the three men
stopping at nothing as the competitors.
| Throughout the interest is never allowed
for one moment to flag. The varying
fortunes Of the amorous contestants are
followed with deep interest until the
last when Wheatley wins, as in the book,
and carries off the lair lady Of the island
A comedy element is most delightfully."-
mingled with the light heroic, and it is
IN this that Miss Tyler scores. The stage
environment, as may be expected, is
well nigh perfect. r. d. Mclean plays
the role OF Lord Wheatley, and his
masteTlY rendering OF the lines Is a
revelation to those who have seen him
only in more heroic parts. The engage
ment is for one week only. with matinees

Malt Extract in Court.

Malt extracts must pay a license
Of $500 if the decision of Judge
Kimball, in the case of the Mackall
Bros, Of this city, on trial in the
Police Court last week for selling
malt extract without license (the
charge being that it was nothing
more than beer; in other words,
fermented beverage) stands.
Instead Of virtually admitting
malt extracts to be Intoxicating
by stating that ologne, Jamaica
ginger and numerous other liquors
were sold under the Internal Rev
enue laws in drugstores without a
liquor license, and so should
malt extracts, which came under
t lis head, whether intoxica ting or
not mad nothing to do with the
case, il the attorney had made
denial OF this assertion his strong
est point oi defense, he would in
our opinion have won the case in
this court, There was but one
question involved-Was the ex-
tract Intoxicating or not1 1t being
a jury trial and the evidence Of its
Intoxicating qualities not being re-
butted, Judge Kimball was forced
to instruct the jury to bring in
verdict Of guilty against the de-
iendants. The case has been ap-
pealed by the attorney for the
defense.
The local druggists, who are
very anxious to win this case for
the simple reason that to lose it
will stop the sale OF malt extracts
in the District, have secured the
services of the ablesr lawyers in
the Districtto help them.
The general consensus Of opin-
ion is that if the attorney for the
defense had particularly impressed
u2on the jury the fact that the diff
ference between malt extract and
beer is as great as between true
medicine and whisky, that the OBJ
ject sought by the manufacturer OF
the former is to produce a prep
aration containing the smallest
amount OF alcohol (about 3 per
cent } and the largest amount OF
nutritious matter, which matter
must also contain a large quantity
ol diastase IA substance valuable as
a medicine to aid digestion OF
starchY ioods), and further shown
that with beer. on the other hand,
the brewer aims to get the largest
amount Of alcohol Is to 10 per
cent?, less nutritious matter and
little or no diastase-in a word,
that one is a decided stimulant and
the other liquid food, a medicine,
and not beverage--he would
have won the case.

A Proclamation OF Hypoerisyl

Mr.. Mckinley has issued his
Thanksgiving Day proclamation.
He asks that on the goth Of No
vember all our people, on this con-
tinent and in the newly acquired
islands, "shall offer a general
thanksgiving and prayers to the
Most High in all their churches"
except in those which he has
burnt down or turned into bar
racks in the Philippines.
When the cruel war against the
Filipinos because those people
want that liberty tor which your
iorefathers fought IN I776-is con-
sIdered it would be blasphemy to
obey the President and offer thanks
to the Most High. Mckinley
ought to offer his thanks rather to
the ruler now so powerful in Amer
ica. God will not ask the Filipinos
to thank Him because Mckinley
has had thousands Of poor people
killed, who had never done the
United States any harm, and for
having had their houses and
churches destroyed and their viii
lagos and cities ruined. The only
Filipinos who will join the Presi-
dent in his prayers will perhaps be
the Sultan Of Sulu and his harems,
who have Just had their pockets
filed with money ilched from our
people by over taxation.
May the Lord forgive Mckinley
and his followers for that procla-
mstionl They need it badly.

any trouble; in fact, We can secure
such a concession even now. But
English Vaccinations and diplo
macy urged him to demand all the
Philippine Islands in order to in
volve us in the Eastern troubles
and force us to fight for English in
terests. England, which wants the
Samoan Islands, caused all our
troubles there.
"Chiet Justice Chambers, our
representative, declared in writing
that England should have the ISL
ands, because she had more inter-
ests there than we. This caused
the bad feeling between Germany
and our country, Tor Germany
could not very well surrender
Samoa, where she had been cult
vating the principal island and had
the largest interest since I8a9. The
ineficiency OF the English officers
showed itself, though on a smaller
scale than yesterday against the
Beers, in a similar manner at
Samoa, where several Of our young
officers and sailors, under the COM
mand of an English officer, were
ambushed and slain.
There is rejoicing tonight es-
pecially in German American cir
cles. We know that imperialim
has received a fearful blow by the
Boer victory. This same feeling,
/ am sure, will be shared by the
Germans all over the country and
especially in Ohio. The latter
know it will induce many Of those
who considered the case OF the
Beers a hopeless one, and were
willing to support the English
ticket against that OF the Beers
fighting Tor liberty and independ-
ence, to turn around and vote the
Democratic ticket.
"The bravery OF the Beers will
have an immense effect through
out the world. Imperialism here
and elsewhere has, l hope, received
its death blow in the American
republic. Three cheers for the
brave Beers.
Congress must prevent the col
lection OF large fleets to help Eng
land. Mckinley must not be per
mitted to bring US into new wars.
This thing must be dropped"

The Editor of the WASHINGTON
SENTINEL in a despatch to the Gin
cinnati EH4uirEr which was pub
lished in that paper on the Ist Of
November, says:
"This was gloomy day for our
imperialists. The Mckinley Re-
publicans all made long faces. for
the Beers had won a great victory
over their Anglo-Saxon allies.
Our city dailies, all for Mckinley
and English imperialism, reluc-
tantly published the news about
the Beers victory. 1t was blow
to them, as we'll as to the English.
"Only yesterday morning Secre.
taTy Long had announced that this
Government would soon send out
a large feet to South Africa, under
the command of Admiral Schley,
to help, Of course, the English, in
case any foreign government
would interfere in behalf Of the
Beers. 1t was distinctly stated
that no foreign Government should
get permission from the United
States to oppose the English. The
Republican leaders no longer deny
the existence Of the Anglo Ameri-
can alliance. Our navy was TO
help the English in Africa and
Asia.
"But the prayers and the good
fighting qualities Of the Beers have
spoiled the game. They have
strangled McKinley's imperialism.
The American people who are
gradually getting their eyes open
will not let Mckinley involve us
in a war with the whole world.
He will no longer dare to obey the
orders Of England, as he has done
in Samoa and the Philippine ISL
ands.

convention to ask only for Manila

Set Free, but Hearrested on Another
 Charge.
 New York, May 10.-The grand jury last night refused to find an indictment against Roland B. Molineux for the murder of Mrs. Kate J. Adams. Ac- cording to report, the jurors stood for an indictment and II against 1t.
 MT. Weeks, Molineux's counsel, i'm mediately started for the court of ses- sions to apply for the discharge of his client. Justice McMahon heard the ar guments and made an order freeing Molineux.
 Immediately after his discharge De- tectives McCafferty and Carey stepped up to Molineux and served a warrant charging him with assault in the first degree by alleged sending of poison to Harry Cornish. Molineux was taken be- fore Justice Jerome for an examination on the new charge. The hearing was had in a private room.
 Mir. Weeks argued that the charge in the original indictment covered the present charge of assault in the first degree against Harry Cornish.
 Justice Jerome held Molineux on the charge of assault in the first degree for examination this afternoon at o'clock.
 Judge Jerome fixed the bail at ZIG, 900.
 The movement against the accused man had taken his counsel and rela- tives by surprise, and there was no bondsman ready. Molineux therefore was led back to the Tombs. Molineux went to his old cell He did not attempt to rest, but paced his cell and showed signs of nervousness.

MOROCCO PAYS UP.
Sultan Scared by Admiral Howi.sn'.
 Flagship.


 Washington. May 1o.-onioisl con nrmation of the settlement sf the claims of American citizens against the Moorish government reached the au- thorities here in a dispatch from Rear Admiral Howison, who was aboard the Chicago. It is stated positively, how ever, that the Chicago was not sent to Tangier for the purpose of enforcing any demand for the payment of the claims mentioned, but that she simply stopped there on her cruise around Africa.
 The officials say that in all likelihood the United States consul took ad- vantage of the moral effect of the pres ence uf the cruiser and renewed his oft repeated request for the payment of the claims, some of which have been pending upward of four or i've years. They grow out of the practice of the native government to grant certificates of protection" to employees of Ameri- can merchants who may be sent on trips to the interior for their employers. In a number of cases the government failed to affosd the protection suaran- teed by the certificates. the employees being waylaid and robbed.
 The Morocco authorities were also fond of interfering with the native in- terpreters and servants of the United States consulate. These persons are ex- empted by treaty from interference by the sultan's officers, but the treaty was violated frequently.
 On other occasions United states warships have been sent to TanKier 10 collect claims for indemnity, and in each case the object lesson In American power has been successful. The amount of the claims in the latest instance is small
