The Hungarian boys band of thirty
five pieces opened its weeks engage
ment at Polls yesterday afternoon to a
packed house and at night to capacity.
The band, as predicted, is magnificent.
1t plays with a finish and art that is
wonderful. Encore after encore brought
new selections. While IL was not the
most difficult of their numbers. certain
ly one Of the most effective was 1.-THE
Holy City" by the full band. The
phrasing and expression of this famil-
lar melody was so perfect that one
could almost hear the words. The band
also gave it's marching drill and little
Mikel Braun played a drum solo. The
directing by Herr Niklas Schilzonyi was
mastery.
The show supporting the band is cap
ital Lorenz and Halpin, John c. Fox
and Katie Allen, Fisher and Clark,
Mile. Scott, the artist on rings, Caring
ton and Holland in "a Ready-Made

ARMORY MOTIFS

The Governors Horse Guard were put
through a very severe and elaborate
sabre drill at the Union armory last
evening. Major Ludington seemed to
be exhilarated with the crispness of the
weather last evening, for he put the
boys through a series of motions that
made tame the ordinary drills of that
kind. The major is bound to have his
command in proper shape for the gu
bernatorial Inauguration next month.
The Second company, Governor Foot
Guard also held their weekly drill at
the armory last evening and it was very
well attended The recent peremptory
order issued by Major Clark seemed to
have it's desired effect on the members.
The tardy ones We're around last even
ing and those who We're unable to at
tend made sure that the major was ~
titled IN time so that a permit for alb
sence could be given. Major Clark is
intent on making a good showing IN
Hartford next month.

AN INTERESTING REPORT

Much Discussed at the Clubs Last
Night
The report was about town last night
that in the appointment of Phelps Mont
gomery of this city on his staff as judge
acknowledgement Governor elect George
P. Mclean has not needed the law
which provides that the judge advocate
general must be lawyer of five years
standing. The matter was freely dis
cussed in the clubs, Mr.. Montgomery
was seen last night and asked about the
matter. He said he so read the law
himself, but he was confident that Gov
ernor-elect Mclean had made no mis-
take and that the report was not seri-
Gus in it's basis. Mr.. Montgomery was
admitted to the bar in 1897.

of the few solid successes of the season.
The story of the new play hinges on the
murder of an old New York banker.
The young wife suspects her own hus-
band, the son of the murdered man.
Nearly all the rest of the characters
( believe the young wife to be the muir
deress. In the end it is shown clearly
that another son of the murdered man
did the deed. The play is full of excit-
ing and thrilling incidents, and the sto-
~ is well connected and shrewdly told.
1t deals with high and low life in the
metropolis, and has been termed "a
moving panorama of New York life. !"
The original New York cast, which in
cludes Misses Selma Herman, Edna G..
Brothers, Alberta Lee and Adolph Jack
son, John I. Nicholson, John L. Wood
erson, Richard G. Williams, Charles B.
Craig, James J. De Barre and many
others, will be seen here as well as the

Grand Opera House.

| The we'll known comedy me!o-drama
"a Ride for Life" was presented before
| a good sized audience last night and
was well received. The piece was pre-
scented here last season and was well re-
ceived. The principal scene is the one
showing the railroad train, and as
usual made a decided impression on the
audience. There is no blood and thun-
der, but action and sensation, natural
characters in possible positions doing
sensible things, and pictures of life that
are serious and dangerous and thrilling,
followed by fun enough to dry the tears
The managers have demonstrated their
entire honesty by never departing from
the highest standard for great stage
effect and gigantic production upon
which they justly base their claim for
public recognition and endorsement
The company that presents this drama
this season is headed by Ross Snow
Miss Ailleen May and Miss Carrie
Ezier. Ross Snow has his well known
part of the tramp, and he was we'll re-
ceived and ably seconded by Miss Car
RE Ezier, who sang a number of pleas
ing songs Bert Snow gave a good bill
of character work, as the Italian, and
little Rose Rivera was excellent in a
child's part. Others in the company are
Robert Harvey, Thomas Irwin, e. O.
Brown. The piece will be repeated
this and tomorrow nights and to-mor-
row afternoon.

long run at the Fourteenth Street thea

Washington, Dec 10.-War depart
ment officials express no surprise over
the report from Pekin that General
Chaffee has incurred the displeasure of
Count Won Waldersee because of his let
ter protesting against looting. General
Chaffee's Independent action in prevent

into any joint action or undertaking
