ASSIGNED TO THE PHILIPPINES
Rear Admiral Mccormick Ordered Ia
Duty with .he &sintic Squadron.

Rear Admiral Alexander H. Mccormick,
Commandant Of the Washington Navy
Yard, has been selected for duty as second
in command of the United States feet in
Asiatic waters. He will be succeeded as
commandant of the navy yard by Capt.
Silas W. Terry, member of the National
Examining Board, who stands second on
the list of his grade. Rear Admiral Nc
Cormick will sail from San Francisco for
Manila on March 81. in company with
Rear Admiral George c. Remey, vino has
been assigned to the duties of commander
in chief of the Asiatic station to succeed
Rear Admiral John c. Watson, relieved.
The assignment of Admiral Mccormick
marks the carrying out of an intention
which the President and Secretary Of the
Navy have had in contemplation for some
time. There has never been such a big
fleet as that assembled in the Philippines
with only one flag officer, and with Ad-
miral Mccormick in charge of the second
division. he will have enough vessels for
a vice admiral's command il not that of
an admiral.
No decision has been reached as to the
division of the feet. That will be left
to Admiral Remey. II is probable that
Admiral Mccormick will take some OF the
ships on cruise in Chinese waters. that
part of the world having been neglected
by American vessels since the beginning
of the Spanish American war.

An original recital of dramatic scenes
from the old plantation days was given
yesterday afternoon at the Columbia Thea
tire at 4:30 o'clock by Mrs. Henry J. Gielow,
of Alabama and New York. The dialect
stories were brimGul of the humor and
pathos that made the slave one of the most
picturesque features of Southern life be-
fore the war, and her realistic imperson-
atoms of the various types given won for
the clever artist continuous laughter and
applause. Mr. Baker, of Baltimore, added
TO the charm of the affair by singing Ger
man and English ballads. while other
musical numbers were given by the
Georgetown College Glee Club and st. Mat
thews Choir.
The entertainment was for the benefit
of st. Matthew's Church. and was under
the auspices of the leading members OF that
congregation.

An advance sale of altogether unusual
proportions is indication Of the interest
aroused among local theatregoers by the
announcement that F. c. Whitney's COM
pany will be seen in Quo Vadis?" next
week at the Columbia. This interest. how
ever, is not surprising for there seemed
every reason to anticipate that any adapta-
tion of Sienkiewicz's famous novel would
command general attention here and in
New York and London where shortly it is
to ts presented. Certainly the work COM
manded that attention in Chicago. where
the run booked was precisely doubled with
out in the slightest degree affecting the
sizes of audiences. If reports from other
cities may be believed, though ''Quo
Vadis?' is not merely amy adaptation, &"
but drama Of thrilling and well-sustained
effect The version used is by Stanislaus
STANCE, whose long period OF libretto writ
ing must have given him a wide and thor
ough knowledge of stagecraft Briefly
there is nothing wonderful in the fact that
the piece, guaranteed by the excellence OF
It's source and endorsed by the best-known
critics of the country. has created a pro-
nounced feeling OF expectation. "Quo
Nadis?' is to be interpreted at the Columbia
by a cast which is averred to be identical
with that employed during the Chicago en-
sagement. This cast includes many celeb
rifles. among its members being Joseph
Haworth, Arthur Forrest. Edmund D.

HANNA ON THE ISSUES,

Senator Hanna sounded the keynote
of the coming national campaign, in
an address at Columbus. part of which
follows:
The balance of net trade in favor of
the United States during the last cen
tury preceding this administration
amounted to $311 100000. In 100
years that was the net balance to the
credit of the United States in our
trade with the world. In three years
OF the administration of William Nc
kinley the net balance as shown by
the books of the United States treas
ury is 81 400. 100000. One billion one
hundred million dollars more accom-
plished in those three years than has
been accomplished in 100 years pre-
ceding. And then, looking into the
face of such results. l repeat his
words: "Do we want to changer" Do
we want any different business COM
binations for us. Do we want any
different policy for the American peo-
pie than that which is building up

Those who attended the stockmen's

of the most favorable for cattle men
ever experienced. There vas little
snow or rough weather and the spring
has opened up finely. Grass is getting

the ranges may not be quite SO large
this year, but the cattle country is

cattle and a few years will see the pro-
