Louis James and Kathryn Kidder. This

crowds in Butte that have each night

The combination has been induced

Gus efforts on the part of Manager
Frank Collins
The piece to be presented here next
Thursday night is 1.-The School for
Scandal"
Some one has said of this famous
old comedy that the points Of its wit
are as numerous as it's lines. Louis
James gives good account of himself
in the rakish bonhomie of Charles Sur
face 1t is a role for ebullient animal
spirits, but art must suggest the heart
and the integrity Of the roysterer who
would sell all his ancestors save the
uncle who stood by him. Quite the con-
trary type Is his brother, Joseph Sur
face, a suave, velvety, plausible man
on the exterior, but veneered too thinly
to disguise the other self within. 1t is
a hard characterization, requiring I'M
usual skill in the transitions of temper
ment and denotement. The natural
gifts and extended experience of rred-
erick Warde induces for his Joseph the
same praise which was conceded to
John Palmer, the original Joseph, that
made him the star of the piece.
1t is the volatile and delicious Lady
Teazle, however, that interest is apt
to center. This role has been the ambi
ton of every Coincidence, and the mas
terstroke Of every artist who has at
tained the greatness to essay it. 1t is
fair, In the light of Kathryn Kidder's
singularly original, delicate and nitric
ate study Of Madame Gene" to
expect a triumph for this gifted woman
in the powdered pompadour and bro
caded petticoats of the arch tease and
seductive mink, Lady, Teazle. Temper
ament, experience and subtle sense of
humor are the pigments which the art
list must bring to her portrait, and of
these this celebrated Coincidence has
shown herself possessed in her great
creation of the -blanchis-
SeuSe.

The French ministry lived through
Mondays session Of the Chamber of Depu-
ties, and though its escape was a narrow
one, 1t will be able probably to last
through the emergency which called it
into being. At any ordinary. time the
elements of which 1t is composed would
be too incongruous to be able to work to-
gether with harmony, but in the present
emergency the warning factions among
the adherents of the republic seem to
have had wisdom enough TO see that only
by their union could the dangers which
threatened France be averted. The trial
of Dreyfus will now proceed no doubt in
an orderly way and whatever verdict is
rendered will be Loyalty accepted. France
has apparently averted for the present at
least the .militarism with which she was
threatened, and the strength of the Re-
public with the people has again been
demonstrated.

Maine people are somewhat dazed at

is going on in this State; and perhaps
they would be still more dazed IL they
could realize how these mills are destined
to grind up the forests A prominent
citizen of the Kennebec region, acquaint
cd with numbering operations, says;
when the vast capital invested in ex-
pensive water powers and pulp and paper
mills in New York and New England Is
considered. making at least 720, goo tons
of pulp for paper each year for domestic
use and for export, requiring more than
700, 600. eco feet OF spruce, thus destroying
100, eco acres of average forest land each
year. it is not difficult problem to figure
out how long this drain ON the forests
can continue. Added to this, the saw
mills require a quantity of spruce for
lumber equal to the demands of the pulp
mills"

There was nothing very sensational In
the New York independents criticism
of the methods of the Rev. A. b. Simp-
son, the clergyman who is accustomed to
hold meetings at Old Orchard every sum
Juer and collect large sums of money for
missionary work. Neither can 1t be
properly called an attack, as some of the
papers have described 1t. 1t was little
more than statement of facts. II it left
an unfavorable impression of Mr.. Simp-
sons way of doing business upon the
reader, 1t was simply because of the meth
DDS therein described. When a man col.
lects large sums of money for missions or
any other object, and neglects or refuses
to give to the public or the contributors
any account of how 1t is expended, he
is deliberately exposing himself to sus-
picion. He may say that the money is
given to him and no account of his stew
ardship is asked by the contributors, and
shat may be true. But the more i'm
pilot the confidence reposed in him the
more anxious he should be to make it
clear TO everybody that it is not mis-.
placed, Now that his attention has been
called to the matter, Mr.. Simpson, II he
is % careful of Interpolation as he ought
60 be, will employ bookkeeper and give
the public hereafter statement of the
money collected and the ways in which
1t is expended.

Bertha Rutfner of New York and Miss
Margaret A. Gardner. formerly of Carl.
hou, who have just completed one of the
hardest trips through the Maine woods
ever accomplished by two young women.
Although it only occupied six days in
all they went through places where few
men have ever been and Where no woman
has approached. They left Ashland in
Aroostook on June 18. From there they
went to Portage lake, then into Big Fish
lake and Mud pond to Carr pond, and
then TO Clayton lake. From Clayton
lake they went to Maohias lake and down
the Machias river, and thence back to
Ashland. Although they were gone six
days, the actual travelling time was but
foul, and In that time they covered 100
miles. The women saw innumerable deer
and moose were very plenty.

ALGER AND pINGREE.

Alger is in hot water again, and 1t is
his dear friend Pingree with whom he
formed an alliance last week who has got
him into trouble this time. When the
Michigan governor announced his inten-
tion in an interview to espouse Alger's
side in the senatorial contest, Alcer
as Immediately accused of allyinR him
self with man who was NOT friendly to
the administration, and it was strongly
limited to him that tthis among other
things constituted an excellent reason
why he should resign his seat in the oabi-
net. But Mr.. Alger is not of the resign
ing kind. He intimatsd in response to
suggestions that 1t would Do very proper
caper for him to resign that he intended
to stick both to the cabinet and to his as
piration for the Michigan senatorship,
and to the charge that he had formed an
alliance with an enemy of the President
he made answer that Pingree was for the
President first last and all the time.
Now whatever else Pingree may be he is
not hypocrite. He does not sail under
false colors. He does not profess friend
ship where he fesls none. Whatever sue
cess he has met with, and under the cir
cumstances it has been extraordinary,
he has won in open fight. He has never
dissembled, So when Aiger's statement

For several months to come active cam

For several months to come active cam
paigniag by our troops in the
Philippines will be impossible. All
that we can DO will be to hold and
protect what We have and prepare for an
aggressive campaign in tine fall. By the
time that weather suitable for active work
arrives Gen. otis's army should be REIN
forced and increased to double its present
effective number by volunteers sent
him from the United States. With 20, 600
men he may hope to wind up the cam
paign speedily and successfully. That he
can ever thoroughly pacify the country
with an army no larger than he has at
