A CROWDED HOUSE
Tonight Grand Scenic Pro-
duction Of Quo Vadis

That the Elleford Company has lost
none of its popularity is demonstrated
by the crowded houses it is playing to
nightly. Every season the company
Crews better and the llays stronger
Last evening 1.-THE Fatal Card was pre-
scented. The piece was entirely different
from all previous productions, in fact,
there are no two plays alike in Mr.. Ellie
ford's repertoire. The play deals with
the gratitude of a man, who, in return for
the saving of his life, that his rescurer
might live sacrifices his own. The plot
was well worked out and the new spo-
cialties enlightened the som hre portion $
of the drama. Mr.. Carl Berch gaze a
creditable performance OF George For

was the Mr.. Burgess OF Mr.. George Con

! Miss Jessie Nor on did not have much
to do as Ciscle Austin, but she brought
the character into prominence. \ very

THE RACES
The Judges do Good Work

The races at the track yesterday proved
of good quality and big crowd took
pleasure in witnessing the sport. The
weather was perfect and many ladies
were in the grand stand. The first race
scheduled was trot which did not fill
and was declared off.
A A furlong dash opened the ball with
Castinette, Trinket, Munsey, Silver Maid,
Fannie f and Roulette Wheel. Fannie
f and Roulette were favorites, and the
field was well played against them. They
were off to good start and Roulette
Wheel took the lead, while Fannie f.
was left standing at the post. The race
was taken by Roulette, Silver Maid sec
ond and Castinet third. The judges con-
cludati that something was bad in the
race and declared the bets off and also
set the rider of Fannie f down for the
balance of the mee.ing. Time :56 As.
The second race, ?-S of mile, had four
entries, Brown jug, Jessie ., los BANGS

h Juvenile Attractions

The Elleford Company always has
something new to present to Carson
theater g0ers. This time they have
two extraordinary children, Baby Lii
liam and Little Evelyn. They are less
than six years Of age and are a show
in themselves. They dance with in
imitable grace, sing Well and sustain
long speaking parts with good acting
and never make break or skip. They
are more interesting than the rest of
the troupe for their innocence and
childish ways appeal to the audience
more strongly than the best actin 9
and the applause that greets them is
hearty and spontaneous.
If they should continue to improve
at the rate they are making, they
would be Bernhearts and Mod jeskas

alas. this is not the rule with child
prodiges. and the APPEAL ad vises the

is now and during possibly the next
three years, Theirs is genius whose
fire eats itself out and burns up the

ont Of all proportion to see children a,

BANQUET To DEwEY's CAPTAINS.
COEhIan's Views of Relative Merits OF
Santiago md Manila.

The surviving captains of Dewey's feet at
Manila were entertained last night at din
ner at the Colonial Club in New York.
Capt. Coghlan of the Raleigh sent letter
f. of regret. Capt. Lamberton of the Olym-
pia left the city on official business. after
he had accepted the invitation Of the club
About seventy-five club members and
guests attended the dinner The naval
guests were Capt. Frank Wildes of the
Boston. Capt. Asa Walker Of the Concord.
Capt. n. NJ. Dyer of the Baltimore. Lieut.
Commanders r. T. Hall and Bradley A.
Fiske of the Petrol and Lieut.. Solin Gibson
of the Boston. Jacob G. Schurnan, presi-
dent of the Philippine commission, was also
a guest. q
Capt. Coghlan wrote his regrets. making
reference to the fact that less than two
years have elapsed since the battle of Ma
mia bay. yet two Of our seven have
Eve give, and glory in giving all honor
to the squadron that destroyed Cervera' s
squadron, and in not one iota want we their
glory dimmed, but to compare that destruc-
ton of running squadron. two-thirds
beaten before it came out-for ii knew from
the work Of Dewey at Manila what 1t had
to expect. and came out with the idea of
Its own death-to compare that, say, with
the work of the squadron under Admiral
Dewey at Manila, his glorious cutting adrift
from everything. carrying his base with
him, no refuge in case of defeat: passing
the bay; hunting the powerful enemy in
his chosen position. protected, as was well
known to the admiral before he went there
with as many guns ashore our squadron
could bring to bear from the ships, and in
spite of such drawbacks utterly annihilat-
ing the enemy; cowing his force in the far
east: by one stroke gaining a colonial pos
session larger than the whole West Indits
group; to compare any other work of the
war with that is, it seems to me, to belittle
the work of our great admiral
President Schurman said in part:
The victory of our commodore and cap
tainS made responsible for the Philip
pines. The vastness of the responsibility is
enough to appall lis. As / ponder over it
seem to see solution in small body of
American officials. carefully selected and
mighty trained, with permanent tenure of
office and promotion for merit, who shall be
animated by the spirit of our naval cap
talnS. You hear nothing, or almost moth
ing, of politics in the navy. Since our
navy entered the Philippine waters there
has not been an instance of an officer abus-
ing his power to Cypress. injure or iil-treat
the natives The navy is, think, our high
est embodiment of love and honor and de-
votion to duty for the sake of honor and
duty and nothing else. The spirit of the
navy must, | say, animate our civil service
in the Philippines. Think of the Filipino as
a niger or an 'Injun. and you will never
know MN, and can never rule him. Treat
him as man like yourself, and all things
are possible to you. Our civil administra-
tors must learn from our naval officers the
art OF dealing with men of other races and
cooperating with them in the admfn!stra-
ton of their affairs"

The ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of American Art.
Thomas Il. Clarke in the New York Times
Recent purchases of American paintings
in two public sales by the trustees of vari-
Gus museums of art in this country are the
main signs of encouragement TO those who
produce landscape and genre pictures in
the United States today. The liberal in
vestment by the management of the Cor
coran Art Gallery of Washington has Civ en-
an impetus to the American school The
support afforded by the purchases and
promises of the Carnegie Institute of Pitts
burg, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts
the Chicago Art Institute, the Pennsyi-
vania Academy of Fine Arts, the Metro
politan Museum of Art, and other societies
is welcome and significant at this time
The auction sales within a year of the
only two private collections of American
art that were comprehensive leave art stu
dents without single private gallery of
native artists work to visit and study
They must now go to the museums of art
in this and other cities if they would in
veStigate the methods of American paint
ers. 1t is a fact that many of the best ex-
ampies of native art produced during the
past quarter of a century hang today on
the walls of the new Corcoran Art CAL
lery, in Washington.
Institutions and individuals can no longer
be accused of Indifference to the worth of
good American pictures, for within twelve
months at least SJ0o,0e0 was expended in
public and private sales in this city for
native artists work. The American painter,
however, suffers much in this country be-
cause of the insufficient means furnished
for the exhibition and disposal of his pro-
auctions
American painters do not expect at the
present time any general encouragement or
help from the national government. but
much is being done by institutions, art So
cieties. clubs and art lovers to indicate be-
lief in and advocacy of the pictures by the
able men and women who are struggling
for advancement or a hearing today
Benevolent persons have benefited our
great universities by providing libraries.
gymnasiums, dormitories, etc, for the use
of the students. Perhaps ere long art will
receive greater consideration in the univer-
sites than has been bestowed upon it. Cal
leries may be built and professorships en-
dowed. 1t is not urged that the new coli
lege art gallery shall be devoted wholly to
the installation of works of American
painters, but one ventures the suggestion
as a matter of caution only-that native
art should have fair representation.
Students may then view the works of their
countrymen and instruction can indicate
their artistic worth or faults. a proper
ton of the educated youth being graduated
from our American colleges today will be
the picture buyers and art devotees of the
future.
