At the Opera House

A fair sized audience witnessed
the production of "a Suit of Sable"
at the Opera House last night and
enjoyed the vivacious acting OF Miss
Roberts who OF course was the star
Of the play.
There is not a great deal OF ORR
ginality to the "Suit of Sable" but
it is lively and harmless play aud
gives Miss Roberts an exec lent
chance to show her artistic coucep-
ton of how girl from a convent
feels when the school days are over.
Miss Crosby and Miss Razsto,
who is a very charming young act
ress supported Miss Roberts in a
most acceptable manner.
"The girl 1 left behind me-" the
play to be staged tonight at the
Opera House, will be produced with
all the great scenic effects and eli
MAKES that made it a favorite at the
Alcazar. The play, which is from
the pen of David Belasco and
franklin Fyles, is warm in senti-
ment, thrilling in story and intense
in action. The plot is OF military
tenor and deals with certain hair
breadth incidents which involve the
/
lives of United States Regulars, the
officers and family in and around
the Government headquarters in
the "Blackfeet" country, while try.
ing to suppress the blood curdlinR

The American Policy.

The affairs Of the nation. and of the
world. for that matter, have reached a
point where old ideas Of government by
panty must be revised where they have
not been before. In matters Of foreign
policy the warning political parties of
Great Britain have had the sense gen
orally TO stick to common one and.
as far as international relations have
been concerned. it has made little diff
ference whether a Conservative or a
Liberal ministry was in power, the good
OF the empire rather than Of party be
ing Loyalty sought for and advanced.
II was different in the United States
before this country became a world
power. Then. if one party in Office de
veloped anything Ike a definite foreign
policy. it was likely to be overset for
TO particular reason by the opposition
when the latter came into the inherit
ance. New conditions have changed all
that Party was once above patriot
ism. The reverse is true today. Pre>i-
dent Mckinley had no more enthusiasts

pansion than the Democratic political

Jefferson. Jackson, and Polk. EXpan-
sion ard its consequences have not been
