viii Classify Indian Lands.

W. H. Redman has been notified by
the department of the interior at Wash
ington, D. c., to classify the allotted
lands of the Yakima reservation for
leasing purposes. No leases will be
made for more than three years until
this work has been completed and APP
proved by the department. This CLASH
fication will settle the question of length
of terms for which leases can be made.
On the other Indian reservations leases
have been made for only three years,
but on the Yakima reservation the
length in many instances has been ex-
tended to ten years. This extension
caused considerable trouble. as many of
the lessees had improved their property
before the department had approved the
contracts. The department refused to
allow the contracts to stand and in many
instances the lessees lost money on the
transaction. The new plan will, how
ever, benefit all concerned.

pany has increased more than 50 per

has rendered decision refusing to or.

The decision holds that the selection

letter or spirit Of the law and that the
fact that there may have been alleged

IL is further held in the opinion that
Woods entry is not invalid ON account
OF the form the tract embraced, that the
special provisions Of the net Of May 20.
1890, do not control in this matter, bat
that the general provisions of the home.

ADJUSTMENTS.

Last night at the Jefferson Theatre the Aubrey Stock Company opened their en- gagement in the sensational romantic drama "The Prince of Russia to packed house. The Aubrey Stock Company comes to Birmingham heralded as the best stock repertoire company now travelling inc claim was rather large one but evidently the audience thought it perfectly just one' Applause was promptly bestowed upon the company and the play undoubtedly pleased The company is composed of some fifteen or more people, and individually and col lectively they are far above the usual tray ehng stock companies. Incidental to this play specialties were introduced by the Bowers, Eddie and Edith, and Harry Will liams The specaltes were very taking. Miss Lillian Bayer, who heads this com pany, is comedy young woman who knows how to act. Last night she strengthened the favorable impression she created when she was first seen here. She was ably sup ported by Victor Morley, clever light com edian; Walter J. Stanhope and A. J. Ed wards In fact, the entire cast was credit able. The engagement is for three nights, with matinees today and tomorrow. The repertoire is as follows: This afternoon, "Turned Up;" Tonight, 'Weu of Ten nessee"; tomorrow night, "Red, White and Blue" and tomorrow night Lost In New York"

RoneY Boys.

The Roney Boys and Blatchford kavan- agh captured a large audience at Seals Hall last night and will appear this after noon a a special matinee for the benefit of the public schools.
 The artistic training and finished style was only one part of the cause for the won- der of the audience; the other was the high class of music sung solos, duets, trios quintettes, with and without accompani- ment standard aria from the operas, bra vura songs of immence difficulty from classical composers, besides popular songs so perfectly sung and phrased as to be a revelation-all made up a programme Of wonderful interest and fascination.
 The enthusiasm of the audience knew no bounds, and they applauded until obliged to stop from sheer fatigue.
 "Tenting Tonight and Romeo and Juli- et' were among the most popular num- bers, but every number was a gem and discrimination seems impossible. Blatch- ford Kavanagh, the baritone, has voice of marvellous sweetness, and made an in- stantaneous hit. MT. Roney played all ac- compartments. The boys are not related to him.
 pr. Phillips, superintendent of public schools, and Mrs. Phillips were so delight ed with "Roneys Boys" and the artistic finish of their programme that at their sug gestion H. K. White induced MT. Roney to remain and give a matinee this afternoon in order that all the pupils of the public schools may have the opportunity of hear ing these marvellous boy musicians and be- ing inspired and stimulated by them in their own musical studies and aspirations.
 The matinee will be at Seals Hall and will commence at o'clock sharp. Dr. Phil lips authorized the announcement that all the schools will be dismissed at 1:30 D. m. in order that the pupils may go home and then attend the matinee at o'clock. Mr. White, in making the announcement that "Roney's Boys'' had been induced to re- main, stated that the performance would be this evening at 8 o'clock, but it was af- rewards changed to matinee at 3 o clock at the suggestion of Dr. Phillips in order that the public school pupils and their pa rents could have a better opportunity to hear them.

ModieSka,

The chief feature of Modjeska's reper- toire, which will be presented during her engagement at the Jefferson Theatre Thurs day is the revival of Shakespeare's historical tragedy of King John.'
 The times are not productive of such genius as that of Madame Modjeska, and therefore her advent would be regarded as ap event, no matter in what plays she elect ed to appear. But the presentation of this play throws the engagement into boldest relief, because although one of the grea test of Shakespeare's historical works, the play of King John" is practically unknown to the present generation of playgoers, its last presentation in this country having been away back in 1874. The title role was then assumed by MT Booth, which will be pl16ed here by MT. R. D. MacLean, and the SNdy Constance by Agnes Booth, which will in this instance be assumed by Madame Modjeska. For those interested in the more serious aspect of dramatic art, therefore, the forthcoming performance will offer a great educational benefit as-well as an in tellectual pleasure Besides R. D. MacLean and Miss Odette Tyler who head the SUD- porting company, number of other notable artists will appear. The seat sale begins today.
 A special matinee will be given on Thurs day, when the great historic play of Marie Stuart will be given, with Modjeska in the title role.
