Burlington county is making the ex-
pertinent Of taking care of its own in.
sane patients Recently no less than So
patients were removed from the State
Hospital for the Insane at Trenton and
were taken 10 the new building which
has been erected in Burlington county.
1t is not impossible for counties to take
care of their own insane, says the Eliza
beth journal but the experiment is al
ways attended with great risk, and is
watched with much anxiety. The same
skill and care that are given to the in
sane in State hospitals can very rarely
be secured for county hospitals, because
they are rarely to be had, and because
counties cannot pay as much 10 secure
them as can the State. Some county
asylums have, in time past, become sad
failures. others have been more or less
successful. The Burlington county ex-
pertinent will be watched with hopeful
interest.

Justice Collins in the Supreme Court
on Monday filed an opinion holding that
a bicycle is vehicle. The opinion was
rendered in the case of Emma r., Som,
of Newark, against the Erie Railroad
Go. The company's contention was that
bicycle was not a vehicle referred to
in the companys charter There was,
therefore, the company claimed, no OBJ
legation on its part to provide the facili-
ties for bicycle crossing the track.
1t was held by the court that the duty
enjoined by the charter was one toward
the public lawfully using the highway
including the riders of BICYCLES. The
court held the failure of the bicyclist tc
detect gap in the crossing did not show
negligence on the part of the rider.

The Nntional-'Tndy Huntworth's
EXperiment.v

\ comedy in the typical Carton vein
pleased a critical and cultured audience
at the New National last evening. Play
wright Carton has previously been tested
locally by the hearing and seeing of Lord
and Lady Algy" and wheels Within
Wheels the quaint handling of which
won him many friends. The theme of this
new effort is as original as the others
and proved a novelty to the audience,
although the situations are all too IA
miliar to less discriminating and more
continuous patrons of the playhouse.
The thread of the story of Lady Hunt
worths Experiment concerns mainly q
woman of good birth who has married
a worthless lord and has been divorced
from him. In order to gain a livelihod
she seeks the very unromantic fields of
the kitchen and by her genial manners
and excellent cookery wins the hearts of
all the men of the household through
the most potent avenue. their gastronom-
ic viscera The men, REINFORCED by the
former dissolute husband, visit the
kitchen in search Of consolation, and some
interesting complications result Finally,
in a very romantic manner the cook
LADY becomes heir to fortune. her need
for culinary employment Is past, she mar
ries whom she likes, and all ends hap
PLY in true comedy style.
In many respects the present visit of
Daniel Frohman's company is interesting
chiefly because of the presence therein of
Hilda SpOng, who has recently attained
almost stellar prominence. Miss Spong as
sumes the role of the cook lady, and is
generally pleasing. invariably interesting
to the eye. and usually acceptable, al
though her articula ton Is at times indis-
tinct and an auditor has difficulty in un-
derstanding. The portions of the play re-
quiring sober work show her to the best
advantage.
Arthur Forrest, that excellent "Petron-
ius" and erstwhle leading support with
Mr. Mansfield, is seen is a comedy role.
In the part of a military man he has
a role which exactly suits his rather pro-
nounced manuerismS and is acceptable
throughout. Grant Stewart, who ought
to know better, makes veritable carl
catlre of the Vicar of Dronesbrough, and
as result is neither artistic nor pleasing.
II is a pity that such talent should ap-
pear to be going to seed. though poSSi-
bly, the actor has not been given his
own free will in Interpreting the part.
Beatrice Morgan is pretty and generally
Intelligent her lighter scenes being par
ticularly happy. Jameson Lee Finney, an
able portrayer of eccentric light comedy
scores again with a part differing decid-
ly from anything he has ever given Wash
inetonians previously. Mrs. Thomas VIII
fen is praiseworthy for merits of omis-
sion, and William owen and Nevada Hef-
ron are good, the latter particularly so.
The scenery IS adequate and well paint
ed. The only matinee will be given Sat
urday afternoon.

The Acndemy-aMan,s Enemy"

As a performance which teaches a
moral and yet is thrilling and exciting
throughout, MANS Enemy" which op-
ened an engagement at the Academy to
the customary immense business last
night. is by far the superior of any that
has been presented in this city for many
a season.
The keynote of the performance is
liquor. which is painted as the enemy of
man Harry Stanton, who is its main VIC
tim, plays his role in an exceptionally
strong manner. The epigrams which he
hurls against liquor are noteworthy both
for their force and truth.
Agnes Herndon, as a woman Of the
world, enacting the part of female vii
lain, assumes her part with much ability
and grace Her enunciation is most pleas
ter is in itself enchanting.
The sympathy of the audience was
aroused by the acting of little Olive De
We're. This child shows promise of be-
coming a great actress during her future
years. Her enactment of the starving
child of drinking father was in Itself
sad but was a picture of what is seen
on the streets of the larger cities each
day. Thad. Shine "a much-liked Wash
ingtonian, was very clever in the several
roles he assumed
The play might be called a picture OF

The Bijou-BurIesaue and yaude-
Vile.

The engagement of Dave Lewis. late of
the Ladies' Paradise as chief comedian
of the stock burlesque company, was GER
tainly a master stroke on the part of the
Bijou management, for the performance
yesterday, which were witnessed by large
audiences, possessed an unwonted snap
and vigor. and everything in connection
with the work of the stock organization
showed the effects of Lewis work.
He is one of the cleverest German CO.
medians that have entertained a local
audience for many a day. The part of the
programme given by the stock company
this week is unusually good, and with the
excellent olio makes most enjoyable and
amusing performance.
The popular members of the company
render new songs, and the efforts of Mel
lie V. Nichols, Susie Rocamora, John P.
Rodgers, Matt Kennedy. and Dave Lewis
in this line are especially commendable.
The vaudeville part of the show is head
ed by Mr. and Mrs. Mark Murphy in their
sketch, called The Seventh Son." which
is particularly valuable as a means to ex-
plot Murphy's comic Irishman. which is
familiar to local patrons of vaudeville.
Mrs Murphy is a splendid assistant, and
the act is replete with funny situations
and lines. The Painter trio show them
selves to be extraordinary acrobats. and
their performance includes a number of
novel feats. Lew Bloom makes a funny
tramp, and his songs receive large share
of applause. while the rural comedy of
Mr. and Mrs. Neil Litchfield makes a
great laughing hit

Chnsc's-0A Contented woman,

After an absence of two weeks Chase's
musical comedy stock company returned
to Washington and yesterday presented
another OF the late Charles II. Hoyt's md
steal farces. "A Contented Woman" The
audience at each performance yesterday
was large. and there is an evident liking
en- the part of Chase's patrons for this
stock company.
Since its last appearance locally the
company has added to its roster new
leading woman, Agnes Rose Lane. a
blonde of considerable beauty and talent
She seemed to find favor with her audi
ence at the outset Yesterday and promises
to become as great a favorite as some
of the other members of the company.
Surely she possesses more beauty than
most OF her feminine associates, and is
equally clever.
"A Contented Woman" is a satirical
comedy written in Hoyt's usually bright
style, but it differs from his other plays
in that originally it was not adaptable tv
the Introduction of musical numbers and
vaudeville specialties. Played as
straight comedy it would be successful;
indeed, when Caroline Miskel Hoyt ap-
peared in it there were no specialties in
terpolated. and it is a matter of record
Since Mr.. Hoyt's death the producers of
the piece have taken all sorts of liberty
with it, and ii is customary nowadays to
introduce d number of speciality acts. The
Chase company has taken this liberty.
and the various members of the company
appear in vaudeville numbers.
The Chase company presents the play in
a very good manner John w. Dunno as
sumes the role of the politician and ap-
pears to better advantage than he has
heretofore. Miss Lane plays his wife very
well. Indeed, it is claimed that she was
selected out of a number of women to
succeed Mrs. Hoyt, and that she has ap-
peared in the comedy for several seasons.
Be that as 1t may, she does uncommonly
we'll Mr.. Harlan has an agreeable role
as Cutting Hintz, and the other members
are well cast.
Mary Marble had nothing to do in the
regular play, but she was heartily re-
ceived in a song and dance speciality. The
other specialties included a turn by Tony
Hart and Miss Mcneil. called vaudeville
echoes, which called forth several en-
cores; a song by John w. Early.
march by Mary Marble and company. and
