The most serious production Of the week is a
| political Socialist play In four acts by Jean
Julien, called La Polgne" brought out at the
Gymnase and well acted with Gernier and Nine.
Samary in the leading parts. It is the story of
an able lawyer who is also militant Socialist.
His Socialism becomes tempered with modera-
ton when he accepts a Ministerial portfolio. 1t
is clever study of the French political life,
minding one of Sardou's "Rabagas." Daudet's
"Rois en- Exil" and Octave Mirbeau's "Mauvais
Bergers." There is plenty of action, especially in
the scene representing workmen's strike. 1t is
the sort Of play one would expect to at the
Theatre Antoine-a special play for a special
public In spite OF it's strong qualities It is not
likely TO have long run, for yesterday La

APPEAL FROM LORD ROBERTS.
HE ASKS HIS COUNTRyMEN TO REFRAIN
FROM EXCEsSEs IN WELCOMING
TROOPS HOME.

London, Nov 3.-Lord Roberts sends from
Pretoria a striking appeal to his countrymen to
refrain from turning the welcome on the home
coming OF the troops into a drunken orgy. He
expresses the sincere hope that the welcome will
not take the form Of treating to stimulants and
thus lead to excesses that will tend to degrade
those whom the nation delights to honor and
lower the soldiers of the Queen in the eyes Of
the world which has watched with undsguised
admiration the grand work they have performed
for their sovereign and country
Il therefore beg earnestly" says Lord Rob
erts, that the public will refrain from tempt
ing my gallant comrades hut will rather aid
them TO uphold the splendid reputation they have
won for the Imperial Army
II very proud to be able to record with the
absolute truth. that the conduct OF this
army from first to last has been exemplary. Not
a single case Of serious crime has been brought
my notice; indeed. nothing deserving the name
Of crime l have trusted the mems SOL
dierly feeling and good sense: and they have
borne themselves like heroes on the battlefield
and like gentlemen on all other occasions.
The most malicious falsehoods were spread by
the authorities Of the Transvaal OF the brutality
of Great Britains soldiers, but the people were
soon reassured that they had nothing to fear
from the man in khaki. no matter how battered
and war stained his appearance.
This testimony concludes Lord Roberts Il
feel sure viii be very gratifying to the people of
Great Britain and Of that Greater Britain whose
sons shared to the fullest extent the sufferings
as we'll as the glory of the war. and who helped
so materially to bring it TO successful! close
Lord Roberts explains that he makes this ap-
peal because of the distressing and discreditab bic
scenes resulting from injudicicus friends speed
