AT THE PLAY LAST NIGHT.

A new actor, aspiring for the honors
of a. Shakespearian tragedian assayed
Hamlet at the Crawford last night to
a small audience.
The legitimate seems to be suffering.
The night before at the same house a
cOlOred company danced and sang
through The Sons OF HAM and drew
a packed house. The next night, with
the lines of Shakespeare to be inter
preted, the audience was small and
scattered Rostelrs Hamlet" is not
bad, in fact it is very good indeed for
a young actor who has not the reputation
of some who have played the part. The
younger Salvini played Hamlet at the
Grand four or five years ago, shortly
before his death. He had special seen
cry, a strong supporting company, a rep
utatiOn and drew a. packed house Ros-
tell has no special scenery to speak of,
has but a fair supporting company, no
reputation and drew in consequence
rather a poor house. The prices ranged
from one dollar down and as Salvini
played for twice that amount and the
usual price is more than that asked by
Rostell it must be said that the perform
ance was good for the money.
Mr. RostelPs supporting company
was, in its own particular scale, well
balanced but the scale stands rather
low. "Ophelia'' and 1.-THE Queen were
taken by young ladies whose appearance
was far more Hibernian than Danish

5000 FOR sGoo.
A ProfItabIe Investment.

Jno. Blakely of w. lebanon, Pa, re-
ports that he got more value from 81 90
worth Of Grape-Nuts food than from
$500 spent in noted hospitals, trying to
get well from stomach trouble. He says:
After all my experience, had to come
home thinking there was no cure for
me. I was weak and nervous I could
hardly walk, and for three years I
hadn't a good nights Sleep I was run
down until I only weighed 120 pounds
Il commenced using Grape-Nuts about
q year ago and now I weigh 1853 pounds
and can do as good days
work as any one When 1 go
to bed sleep all night peace
fully and am refreshed in the morning
I use Grape-Nuts food every day and
know it is the greatest blessing that
ever was sent to suffering humanity
believe if it had not been for this food I
would have been under the sod before
this There is a reason. No food in
existence contains, in concentrates
form, the elements that will rebuild the
nerve centers and the brain, as Grape
Nuts, and the beauty Of the food is that
it is perfectly cooked at the factory and
by the process OF manufacture is pre-
digested in a natural way, therefore re-
quires but trif1ing power Of the stomach
to digest it

NOW 1T is CUBA
Which May Make an Extra Session
Necessary.

Washington, Feb. 9.-Among the sub
jects discussed at the cabinet meeting
were the Cuban constitution and the
possible necessity for an extra session
of congress. Attention was called to the
paragraph in the presidents message to
congress at the beginning of the Fifty
sixth congress, in which he said:
THE new Cuba yet to arise from the
ashes of the past must needs be bound
to us by ties of singular intimacy and
strength If its enduring welfare is to be
assured. What ever be the outcome, we
must see to it that free Cuba be a re-
atty, not a name, a perfect entity, not a
haSty experiment bearing within itself
the elements of failure. Our mission is
not to be fulfilled by turning adrift any
loosely framed commonwealth to face
the yicissitudes which too often attend
weaker states whose natural wealth and
abundant resources are onset by the IN
congruities of their political organization
and the recurring occasions for internal
rivalries to sap their strength and dis
sipate their energies
1t is known that these words fairly
express the present views of the preSl-
dent and the members Of his cabinet as
developed at the meeting, but whether
the constitutional convention will view
the matter in the same light is per-
picking question. Persons in position
to be well informed as to the presidents
purposes believe that an extra session
will be inevitable without congress shall
take some action with respect to Cuba
and it's relation to this country. With
that matter disposed of there is good
reason to believe that an extra session
will be avoided.
A strong effort will be made to render
an extra session unnecessary and with
this feeling the president is in full ac-
cord.
Secretary Long stated at the cabinet
meeting that he had heard nothing Of
the reported riot between the sailors Of
the United States naval vessel Lancas-
ter and the populace of La Guayra,
Venezuela and he is disposed to the
opinion that 1t was nothing more serious
than fist fight between some intoxi-
Gated sailors and the authorities.

A BUNCH OF RECRUITS.
Why Russian Students Have Been
Forced Into the Army.
(Correspondence the Associated Pressl

Corresponding the Associated PreSs.)
st. Petersburg, Jan. 25.-It is impos-
sible to read the minister of education s
expose Of the student troubles at Kieffe
which have ended for the moment in the
order to transfer ia young men from
the lecture room to military barracks,
without wonder that these rash youths
or the government should have taken
fore the troubles began the agents Of the
government got hold Of a. lot of docu-
ments disclosing the existence Of an in
cipient secret political organization
among the students whose object was
to make a propaganda. for political
changes in and from the universities
The minister of education does not state
just what these papers disclosed, ana
it may be that they justified the as
sumption that the recalcitrant students
at Kieffe were really pursuing some
definite designs The minister's expose
would scarcely justify such a. belief.
The expose begins with the arrest Of
a number of students in Odessa last
June They were described as delegates
from various institutions Of learning to
a general student congress It is stated
that the captured papers disclosed the
design of the leaders to establish a cen
tral organization which should guide the
political activity OF the students in one
channel and particularly launch all
sorts of protests against academic, so
cial and political conditions.
The arrest Of the participants in the
congress did not prevent the attempt to
realize this programme, and noisy dem
onstrations over frivolous affairs. The
university authorities were unable to
suppress the disturbances, which became
more serious toward the end of the
month.
The subsequent restoration Of order
moved the authorities of the university
to inflict light punishment on the ring
leaders Four were condemned to i'm
prisonment in the carcer-university de-
tehtion-for from two to five days. The
remainder were let off with censure and
the withdrawal or certain privileges for
a year.
Two Of those condemned to the career
declined to enter upon the punishment
and called a mass meeting for the fol-
lowing noon. The rector declared the
two ringleaders expelled. One Of them
took charge of the meeting. The other
left but returned shortly with reinforce
ments. General disorder resulted and
soldiers were finally sent to quiet and
dispense the students.
The remainder has been told "A spe-
cial court after fifteen sittings condemn
ed all, without exception, to terms of
military service Of not less than year.
Two were condemned to five years of
service and five to three. The minister
RENTED the sentence of 209, considered
less guilty to censure and withdrawal
of all special privileges. The sentence
Of the remainder was confirmed and the
ministry of war was informed that there
was at its disposal IVA recruits.

RIGHTS OF THE NEGRO.
The Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott Say
There Should Be No Color Line.

Boston, Feb. 9.-The Rev DR.. Lyman
Abbott made some startling statements
on the rights of the negro in the south
during his eight lectures on "A Study in
the Problems of Democracy last night
He said he applauded the attempt i'll
recent years to have the best elements
govern in the south. His lecture opened
with discussion of the Indian question,
in which he said:
Bar barians have rights which civili-
cation must respect; but barbarism has
no rights in a civilized community. The
wall which has been erected around bar
barism in the form of Indian reserva-
tions should be taken down and the In
dams thrown out into the activities of
civilized life to take care of themselves.
