the ground that the prospective bride was
not a Catholic or because he was not as

The bride is said to be connected by de-

LEGACY FROM LORD Butte.
Mgr. t. j. Cnpel Remembered with
A Handsome Annuity.

A Handsome Annuity.
Mgr Thomas ]. Capel, of the Roman
Catholic prelacy. who has been living in
retirement at Arno, near Sacramento
Cal, for eleven years past as tutor IN
wealthy family, writes to one Oh the
clergy here under date Of November Il
that through the will OF the late LORD
Butte. of London, he has been granted an
annuity of $500 during the remainder OF
his life. Until 1882 Mgr. Capel ranked
among the most eloquent pulpit orators
of England He had been protege OF the
famous Cardinal Wiseman and close
friend of the no less illustrious Cardinal
Manning, Archbishop of Westminster,
from whom he received ordination as
priest; but by reason of financial matters
in connection with church building he
came under the displeasure of papal au-
thority. and was temporarily furloughed-
Soon afterward he visited this country
and preached missionary courses in the
leading cities. which evoked widespread
notice. At Washington he was accorded
respect and honor by the highest diplo-
matte. as well as Government, circles, and
the attentions he received at New York,
Philadelphia Boston, Baltimore, and
other places are matters of record. His
impressive appearance en- the rostIutn,
clad in the flowing purple of the prelacy.
combined with his magnetic delivery, won
the regard of some of the foremost clergy
and laity of the country. who were sur
prised exceedingly when an edict from
Rome placed him under suspension from
active labor in the ministry. Since 1889
he has lived in seclusion at Sacramento,
although still recognized as priest OF
the Roman communion under temporary
deprivation of his faculties.
1t is said by one of the pastors here
who knows Mgr. Capel well, that the late
Lord Butte and himself were lifelong
friends, to SO great an extent, indeed, that
in the historical novel, "Lothair," by the
celebrated Disraeli Earl of Beaconsfeld
and Prime Minister of England, they are
represented as boon companions-Bute
under the above psendonym and Capel
| under the cognomen of Mgr. Catesby.
| In fact, it seems that Lord Butte became
converted to the Roman Catholic faith
| through the efforts of DR.. Capel, who was
so long heralded as among the most gifted
of the English pastors.
1t is understood that the monsignor, or
| account of his advanced age, will be re-
stored to full standing in the Church a
| no distant day.

character actress. Miss Alma Kruger en-
acts the small part of Louise Jupp. cashier
at the hotel. and her skillful handling OF
an otherwise unimportant role was note
worthy. Mr.. Eugene Ormonde has the
rather thankless role Of the Prince cas-
sim Wadia The part is absolutely void
of opportunity, but Mr.. Ormonde does all
in his power to rescue it from the slough
of nothingness Mr.. John T. Sullivan is
an ideal detective and although the role is
hardly up to the standard of those to
which Mr.. Sullivan is accustomed, his
acting was finished. as usual. Walter
Craven, as the chief Of the Diamond
Gang" gives Mr.. Sullivan close brush
in delineating villains. Robert Rogers and
Frederick Sullivan, as the Viscount Mon
tyghal and Sir Simon Beauclere, respec-
lively are very amusing. and Charles
Wyngate and George C. Staley are effec-
tive in small parts. The performance now
proceeds with the smoothness incident to
a weeks run and is tribute to the en-
ergy and perseverance of Stage Director
Bellows and to the artistic ability of the
players.
THE Great Ruby" will be continued I'M
til Thursday. when "As You Like It," with
Miss Bates as Rosalind will be the bill for
the balance of the week.

MISUNDERSTANDING Duchess,

In the Dainty Duchess the current at
traction at the Lyceum, Manager Herman
has one of the very best of the many
travelling burlesque organizations that
visit Washington. The entertainment
provided by this company is in every re-
spect superior to most of it's competitors
for patronage, and the performances ex-
hibt an intelligence in the matter OF
stage management that is quite refresh
ing. In addition to a splendid equipment
of appropriate scenery, the management
has been happy in the selection of the
comedians and chorus. The former are
indeed funny and the latter is composed
of a score of good looking young women
who sing well and add considerably to the
a,tractiveness of the ensembles.
Two burlesques are offered, Queen OF
Bohemia" and "Plckings from fuck," and
both are diverting. The olio includes
Miss Letta Meredith. capable bur-
lcsquer Monroe and Mack. Russell and

stated that even that portion of the au-
dience last night which dwelt in less

clean, cheerful, and comfortable, and
gives every evidence of having entered

Cnase's current bill of polite vaudeville
includes an act Of such unusual worth that

the delightful entertainment of Harriette
Weems and company Of three assistants
of uncommon ability. They present a lit
tie Offering termed THE Violin OF Gre
mona" which Is dramatically excellent
in fact away above the average OF sketches
seen in vaudeville. 1t is dainty. full OF
pathos, and with exactly one line OF
comedy yet it is of enough merit to en-
thrall an audience and win for itself the
place of honor among bill Of much more
pretentious offerings. 1t is withal one
of the very best vaudeville sketches that
has ever been seen on a Washington stage
for many days.
Charles Sweet the tramp burglar, is on
hand once more with his budget OF witt
cisms and the audiences yesterday after
noon and evening gave him a rousing re-

| and assisted in making Mr.. Sweet realize
he was among friends. His act is as funny
a. ever, and his playing OF the piano wins
much applause. Charles Leonard Fletcher

otherwise he. He initiates several actors.

Robson, and Richard Mansfield. The imi-
tations are fairly we'll done. Mr.. Fletcher
takes evident pride in his announcement
that his imitation of Mr.. Mansfield in DR..

arrest at Fargo on the charge of rob-
berry is said. to have been spitewark on

Carmody appears to have formed the
acquaintance of a man who was after

association with this man, tho only
casual. was seized upon as a pretext
for his arrest. The alleged robbery
Mexican government had asked for

Car1nody's friends feared he would be

from the department at Washington
assuring them that the United States
government would see that he had a
fair trial. His discharge, however,
proves his innocence and will make in
