TiLLMAN'S SPEECH.
Senator Tillman R0asts the Ad.
miniStratiOn About the Phil
ippine War.

Mr.. Tillman deprecated the
idea that man is disloyal to the
flag if he declares his belief that
prosecution of the war in the
Philippines is disloyalty to the
declaration of independence, and
said he WAS "rcadv to To-

Mr.. Tillman then discussed at
length the race question as it
relates to the Philippines, in the
course of which he expressed

PrO.BOer Massmeeting.

a large pro-Boer mass meet
ing was held in Minneapolis
Sunday, attended by 4 200 peo-
pie. A similar meeting was held
for a similar purpose in St.
Louis.
Resolutions were adopted en-
pressing hearty sympathy with
the Beers Of South Africa, de-
nouncing the efforts of Great
Britain to annihilate their Re
public and to crush the spirit
of freedom, commencing the
manner in VIII ch President
Kruger and his people have

protesting against the seizure Of
American -four and beseeching
the President of the United
States to act as a mediator be-
tween the Beers and British.
In the Minneapolis meeting
after declaring in favor of free
dom as defined by Abraham
Lincoln, they call upon the
President of. the United States
to use his good offices to bring
about a quick ending of the
struggle between the Boer Re-
public and Great Britain, and
if later developments tend to
forecast the ultimate victory Of
Great Britain, to step in and
"demand" that the war be
stopped. They also ask the
President of the United States
to recognize at once the repres-
nntative of the Transvaal and
Orange Free State officially.

BY Telegraph to The Daily News.
London, January 29.-The
queens speech to parliament at
the reassembling tomorrow Ill
indicate the unalterable deter
mination of the country to press
the Boer war to finish. There
will be no let up until Great
Britain obtains her objects and
the British flag flies over Pre-
toria and Bloemfontein. This is
not stated in so many words but
the short reference to the war is
chiefly confined to regrets for
the terrible bloodshed and praise
for the men who have laid down
their lives for their country.
All will 60 to- show that there
is not the slightest idea of Civ
ing up the fight until Great
Britain's ends are attained.
The speech also says the re-
lation of England with all for
elgn states are very friendly,
and will express very great
pleasure and qualification at the
patriotism shown by the colo
MES. The press is practically a
unit for forcing the war.
London, Jan 27.-Anv attempt
to minimize the gravity OF the
situation in South Africa made
here after former reverses to the
British arms is lacking here this
afternoon. 1t is acknowledged
that the most serious effort of the
war has failed dismally. There
is no sign OF disposition among
the leaders of public opinion to
disguise the ugly facts, but every
disposition to face the iull diff
cultv and discover the best wav

of Ladysmith rs been abandon

Natal to the open Welt in the free

 "The second appearance of the Clara Mathes Company was made at McDon- aids last night For their second bill they chose La Belle Marie," a play abounding in dramatic possibilities.

They were exacting roles, but Miss Mathes was fully equal to the demands. She is an actress of exceptional dramatic force and in emotional situations Is almost faultless.

"Why Smith Left Home"

| The Los Angeles (Cal) Times, in speak, | ing of George H. Broadhursts comedy, | ''Wlhy Smith Left Home" which will short l ly have it's initial performance here, says: l George H. Broadhurst's comedy, Why | Smith Left Home has been aptly termed l by some one-probably MT Broadhurst | himself-'a gleeful plentitude.' The express sion Is happy one, for of all the modern | day comedies yet created by American play | wrights we can call to mind not one that is more clever and more potential in starting the ready laugh. This Is one of the few comedies which is so happy in its lines and l situations as to be really laughable when presented at the hands of ordinary play CTS but when there is brought to its pro- duction so well balanced a company as the one which appeared at the Los Angeles yes terday afternoon and last night, the laugh ing success is notable.
 Like the other Broadhurst play now be- ing presented to local audiences, Why Smith Left Home is as wholesome in it's mirthfulneSS and diverting spirit as 1t is adroft in its business, scenes and situa- lions, and, although the play is in Its sec ond season here, 1t has shown it's capacity to sustain the interest of the theater-go- CT, and Is therefore demontrative of the lasting qualities a rare feature in comedy
