MUSIC AND THE STAGE.
GRAND.

"The Dukes Jester is a new play to
st. Paul theater goers. and Frederick
Warde In comedy Is a most agreeable
surprise. This was the verdict last night
at the Grand not Of those whose per-
functory duties might induce them to
say SO in print this morning, but OF the
entire audience.
Mr.. Espy Williams has written for Mr.,
Warde four-act romantic comedy of the
period Of the latter part of the fifteenth
century. The scene is laid in Milan He
has done his part well, and Mr.. Warde
and his company allow 1t to lose moth
ing at their hands The action is brisk,
the four climaXes interestingly planned,
and the dramatic atmosphere similar In
one respect, at least, to that of "Cyrano
! de BeTgerac." While the latter Is a trag-
edy the parts of Cyrano de Bergerac in
the one and Cecco in the other bear this
! resemblance. Facial deformity, nagnified
by sensitive, poetical nature, prevents
| Cyrano from at once declaring his love
| Cecco. the dukes Jester, is oppressed by
the realization of the great social dis
parity between him and the woman he
loves, Nina de Borgio. And each of these
| heroes is a heightened. chivalrous gentle
man by instinct and culture.
1.-THE Dukes Jester is the story of
the love of a gentleman in reduced cir
fool to the Duke of Milan, for the beau
tiful ward of Piero de Borgio, wealthy
nobleman This love is returned, but not
to the knowledge of Cecco. The purity
of Cecco's love Is so great that he read
lily plans to aid her in a marriage with
one whom Cecco believes she loves but
whom, in reality, she detests AS Jester to
the court Cecco plays merry quips and
FRANKS until tloe truth Is brought home
10 him of Nina's affection. Then the
happy denouement and his foreshadowed
union with the woman whom, for three
times, he has saved from impending dis
aster
1t may be possible that in breaking into
the rich pastures of comedy Mr. Warde
has made hit. The temper of the large
audience last night indicated that this
is true. There were many opportunities
for effective acting. and he accepted
them commercially. Charles D. Herman,
as GaleazZo. Duke of Milan, is a come
dian of we'll sustained pretensions. He
reads his lines with a rich, assuring elo-
cution that is appreciated. The charac-
ter, too, is one that wins with a sympa-
thetic audience. The low comedy part
was carried by Charles II. Clarke, as
Florio, and WIS emnently satisfactory.
The rest of the male portion OF the cast
is we'll balanced and commensurate
AS Nina &c Borgio. Minnie Tittell Bruno
deserves the appreciation with which she
was greeted last evening. She is an ae-
tress Of charming personality and pre-
scented her role with grace and satisfac-
tory expression. Miss May Warde a.
daughter of Mr.. Frederick Warde. as
Bonnetta, the friend of Nina. has deveI-
oped into charming coincidence OF
naivete and vivacious expression.
Mr. Warde, In response to an enthus-
iastic curtain call, made a short speech,
in which. in well chosen words, he ac-
knowledged the hearty welcome he had

SOLDIERS BODIES REST
FRED FRTTZEN AND CHARLES
KARGER, WHO DIED IN LUZON.

With military honors the body of Prl-
vate Fred C. Fritzen, of the Thirteenth

at Manila, was buried yesterday after
noon. The funeral took place from
Clinton Avenue Methodist church. The
church was crowded with those who had
known the young soldier in life, and
many floral tributes were banked about
the casket. The palIbearers were mem
bers Of Company E, of which the de-
ceased was member. The body was
taken from Nagel's undertaking rooms
to the church on caisson, accompanied
by firing squad. At the church the
members of Company E met the escort.
The service was performed by Rev.
Thomas Hambly Prayer was delivered
by Chaplain c. A. Cressey, of the Thir-
teenth regiment. A military procession
accompanied the body to Oakland ceme-
terry, where a short service was held
when the firing squad gave parting sa-
lutte and taps were sounded.
The funeral Of Private Charles Kar-
ger, of Company NJ, Third 20 ed States
infantry, who died I'm the Philippines,
took place yesterday afternoon from the
Carroll Street Presbyterian chapel The
service was largely attended and mill

CONGRESSMAN NI'CLEARY IS
HEARD FROM

The speech made by Congressman Nc
CIeary in favor Of the Puerto Rican tar
IF bill. when it was before the house Of
representatives, is to be disseminated In
pamphlet form by the Republican nation
al congressional committee Just why
this is done is not very clear, for there
IS nothing very noteworthy in the speech
made by the Minnesota congressman, ex-
cept the fact that he does not agree with
congressman Morris, Eddy and Tawney
as to who owns the crops of tobacco
awaiting export IN Puerto Rico. Mr.. Nc
Cleary says the crops of the island are
held by the local exporters and shippers.
while the other congressman have de-
clared that the trusts own them. Mr..
McCleary also states that probably the
tobacco trust owns the greater part of
the Puerto Rican crop now ready for ex.
port, but the mere fact of making two
such contradictory statements in the
same speech need not discourage the
readers of this pamphlet
Mr.. McCleary also advances the claim
that the trusts really want free trade
between the United States and Puerto
Rico. aud have only pretended that they
were opposed to free trade for the pur,
pose Of concealing their real wishes and
throwing dust in the eyes of the people
Evidently some of the dust has lodged
in The eyes of some congressman. Mr.
McCleary. unlike his incautions friend
Congressman Morris, says nothing about
the effect of the Puerto Rican tariff upon
the Infinitely greater question of the fu,
ture tariff arrangements for the Philip.
pine Islands.
Like Congressman Tawney, Mr.. Nc
Cleary winds up his speech with the
clap-trap phrases about standing with
Daniel Webster and Abraham Lincoln.
and the great similarity in the express
sions and IDEAS contained in the speeches
and explanations made by McCIeary,
Tawney, Eddy and Morris is sufficient to
create the suspicion that they have col
Iaborated for their defense, and propose
to stand or fall together.

THE EVIL OF sENsATIoNAL1sM


THE EVIL OF SENSATIONALISM.
Sensationallsm always bears liberal
fruit. 1t may not be the fruit which
is looked for, but It's products are none
the less certain or extensive.
The most noted cases of sensationalism
which have come under popular observa-
ton In the immediate past have been
the publication of so-called Christian
daily newspaper in a Kansas town by a
clergyman and the suppression of the
vulgar play called "sapho" in New York
city, Each has borne It's fruit, and the
fruit in each case savors more or less
of the fruit of the Dead sea.
To those who have thought of the alb
normal results which always ensue
from giving too great prominence TO that
which is not in itself inherently good, it
is not surprising to learn that the book
from which the suppressed play sprung
and current copies of the Topeka Capt
tai should be hawked together on the
streets of our large cities and sales
sought for them on the same considera-
ton Of their sensationalism.
1t is related that during the course Of
an official investigation into some exist
ing evil or other a certain clergyman
was testifying as to his knowledge Of the
evil complained of. and was asked GER
tain questions which involved an express
sion of his opinion on certain phases of
question thus put to him by reminding
his interlocutor that he was under oath
and that If he were released from the
sanctity of his oath he would consider
the propriety of engaging himself in a
public discussion OF the questions in
volved.
The example of that clergyman was
certainly worthy of emf ltlon.
Those who bring cert evils into pub
lie prominence with al Sther view than
the remedying of them permanently and
in toto assume grave moral RESPONSE
bility. The effect upon morbid magma
tons of the recitals which are attendant
upon such movements as the one re-
Gently adoptt for the suppression of i'm
moral dramatic representations in New
York are much more to be dreaded than
the evil which is ostensibly sought to be
removed. Not one person in one hun
dred thousand of those who now UNDER
stand something of the moral obliquity
involved in the "Sapho" production
would have ever heard that such book
had been written or such a play pro-
duced but for the notoriety rising from
the trial Of the case in court.

THE PRICE TO BE PAID.

Mr.. Francis B. Thurber Is an extensive
wholesale grocer. Among the other ac-
tivities in which he Is engaged is the
promotion Of the interests of the United
States Export association, of which he
is president. The object of this associa-
ton is avowed to be Ito widen the mar
kets for American products. and thus

Some fifteen years or so ago Mr.. Thur
Der was the president of the National
Autobiography league. an organization
which. so far as Mr.. Thurber's energies
were involved in It, appeared to have
the purpose avowed in it's title, and to
exercise at least in It's operations In New
York state an influence hostile to corrup-
ton IN legislative affairs. In those far
off days 1t used to be claimed, with how
much force Mr.. Thurber understands,
that his animating purpose In anti-mo-
nopoly was the waging of warfare upon
the New York Central & Hudson River
Railroad company, which was then un-
derstood to be unfriendly toward Mr..
Thurber's firm Of Thurber Bros. Among
those who then knew of Mr. Thurber's
operations it is conceded that, for the
time at least, he exerted a more or less
healthful influence on the progress of
New York legislation, and had much to
do with rendering the canals of New
York free

large Eastern cities without attracting
any attention whatever, and had been
condemned as fiat, vulgar and unprof-
table. 1t is the tendency which such
a representation presupposes that needs
suppression. rather than the representa-
ton itself, and the moral effect OF its
suppression will probably never extend
further than the promotion Of the circula-
ton of daily papers that each successive
Issue perpetrate equally gross outrages
on all ideas of personal decency and good
taste.
And when the Rev Mr.. Sheldon passes

what good result will he have left behind
him? None whatever. He will have
brought no small measure of popular
ridicule on the Conception of Christian
daily paper, so dear to many well-mean-
ing persons. He will have helped to es-
tablish the proposition that in order to
conduct such an enterprise with profit
1t Is necessary to make concessions in di-
rections which do not always work to-
ward the religious. moral or ethical In

much of the just sentiment of reproba-
ton which has for some time past been
gathering force against the daily press,
which Is to be regarded as the antithesis
of his understanding of what such a
publication should be. His essay was
in itself another, though less offensive,
expression OF sensationalism. and 1t will
soon pass into the oblivion of forgotten
