son of the fact that it viii serve to in

sou.o,, Concert Tomorrow.

The last opportunity for the lovers of
band music to crafty their predictions

The song recital to be given at the Co
lumbia Theatre on Sunday afternoon.
April 10, by Mr.. and Mrs. George Hen
schel. of New York, is attracting Il large
amount of interest even at this compare
lively early date The Henschel reel
tails are characterized by an artistic
charm and simplicity which cannot be
found in the same degree in the work OF
any other singers. and it is for this rea-
son that they are invariably welcomed
by large audiences. The troubles COM
mon to so many artists rarely affect Mr..
and Mrs Henschel and their assemblages
are never disappointed Their forthcom-
ing appearance in this city will be nota
BILE in that il will serve to introduce
programme of practically new music in
which the Henschels have been very sue
cessful in other cities in which they have
re@-tly sung.

Columbia Thentrc-"The Sign of the
GrOss,v

Wilson Barrett's drama of Rome. The
Sign of the Cross" will be the attraction
at the Columbia Theatre next week with
matfnees Thursday and Saturday. The
action of the play is laid in times of
which even history shudders to relate
But half century had passed since the
ascension of the Man of Galilee. and Rome
was Yeritable Sodom and Gomorrah:
the Emperor a tyrant. dissolute wretch,
fend incarnate; his subjects moral
bankrupts. Womans charm was vice
rather than virtue. and men exampled in
their daily lives lust and low cunning
This is the background of Mr. Barrett's
play, and serves to make more beautiful
the story of the sufferings of a little band
OF Christians who endured uncomplain-
lngiy the prosecutions and martyrdom
that adherence to their faith brought
them. The story of the play is so thrill
ing and the stage settings so elaborate
and beautiful that entirely aside from its
strong moral lesson The Sign of the
Cross is an attraction that appeals to
all lovers of an absorbing melodrama
quite as much as to the class known as
'non-theatregoers' who have cont ibuted
much toward the remarkable success the
play has made during the last few years
Charles Dalton and William Greets

The acndemy-"A Texas steer.-

Charles Hoyt's "A Texas Steer will be
the attraction at the Academy next week.
When the press of a whole continent
combines in eulosizing play, there must
surely be a great deal of merit in the
piece. And this is just what the dramatic
writer's of this country have done in re-
gard to "A Texas Steer"
There have been several comedies pre-
scented by Mr.. Hoyt since he wrote this
breezy satire, but in none of them has he
been so emiuently successful in every re-
spect as in "A Texas Steer Its theme is
one bound to interest a genuine American,
for politics come more naturally to our
countrymen than to any other nation.
The machinery Of Capitol politics is the
target of Mr.. Hoyt's satire, and none of
his keen shafts strikes an inch from the
bulls eye. There is a charming little love

of pathOs in the midst of the rollicking

Gen. Dewet Orders Three ~Peace Commits

London, Jan. 1.-THE war Office has
received the following dispatch from
Lord Kitchener, dated Pretoria, jan
uary 13: "About 1,400 Beers crossed
the line, attacking both Zuurfontein
and Kaalfontein stations, but were
driven off. They are being pursued
by cavalry brigade" Lord Kitch-
ener reports also several skirmishes
at different points, with trifing Brit
ish losses, and adds: s'Three agents
of the peace commission were taken
as prisoners to Dewet's lager, near
Lindley, January 10. One, who was
a British subject, was logged and
then shot. The other two burghers
were logged by Dewet's ORDERS
The brief report of the fate of the
three members of the peace commit
tee, who were sent to see Gen. Dewet,
excites the deepest indignation on all
sides. One or two papers express a
hope that Lord Kitchener has been
misled by false reports, but it is gen.
orally felt that he would not have
reported the matter to the war Office
without undoubted evidence.

A COSTLY AMENDMENT.
Provision In Army Bill to Promote Retired
Omcers of the Civil War Would Add
100000 Year.

Washington, Jan. 13.-An attempted
amendment to the army reorganiza-
ton presented in the senate if adopted
will cost the government 100000
a year additional pay for array officers.
It is proposed to promote to next
higher grade all officers on the re-
tired list who served in the civil war,
and to promote all other officers now
on the active service list who served
in the rebellion. There are about 600
officers on the retired list of the
army, and of these fully 500 served
in the civil war. There are no less
than 80 brigadier generals who will
become major generals by the opera
ton of such a provision of law.
