GOOD PLAY AT THEATRE
MISS KENNEDY IN CAPTAIN
JINKS OF THE HORSE
MARINES"
Large and Fashionable Audience
Greeted New Star and Manifest
ed Its Approval Of Her Arts
TIC Production Of Comedy.

Miss Elizabeth Kennedy, in Clyde
Fitchs comedy drama Captain links Of
the Horse Marines' made a distinct i'm
preston upon Montgomery theatre-goers
at the Montgomery theatre last night.
Notwithstanding the uncomfortably
high temperature a large and fashion
able audience greeted Miss Kennedy up
on her first appearance in Montgomery
and its verdict of approval was most
pronounced.
Captain links of the Horse Marines
has been heralded as one of the best pro-
auctions OF the prolific Mr.. Fitch. 1t
is certainly entertaining but it is not Mr..
Fitchs best. The story of the play has
been heretofore told by The Advertiser.
Some Of the lines are bit too broad for
polite ears but this fault is perhaps. due
to the apparent tendency Of the times
rather than to an intention to offend.
1t is doubtful II a more perfect blend
ing Of comedy and melodrama has ever
been written into play than is devel-
oped In this work of Mr.. Fitch. There
are also flashes of philosophy that add
interest to the story.
Miss Kennedy was delightful. She is
new to this part of the country. but she
gives promise of being better known in
future AS the piquant but vacillating
Madame Trentoni. she displayed remark
able versatility In the difficult emo
tional shades of the play. she showed to
the best advantage and won the complete
sympathy of the audience. At the close
ef the second act she was four times re-
called the audience becoming noisy in
its enthusiasm.
Miss Kennedy is q handsome woman.
She wore several beautiful gowns.
The star was given excellent support
The Captain links of Mr.. Babcook was
good His reading was perfect. but he
will be more effective when he overcomes
stage stride which at times marred
the picture
The character part of Professor Bellf-
arti, the old dancing master. done by
Edward Beck, was perfect and enhanced
the enjoyment of the entertainment.
The play was staged with special seen
erv and the accurate costumes OF the
period just after the close OF the war
between the States were greatly admired

Graceful Girls.

The girl who is permitted to grow up
with no instruction as to the carriage and
care of ner body has indeed a great
grievance against her parents or guard
ians 1t is only while the body is grow
ing that it can be trained into poise
and form.
OFTEN when it is too late young women
awaken to the fact that through sheer
carelcssness and thoughtlessness. which
is the same thing, on the part of those
about them. their bodies have been al
lowed TO degenerate into STOPPING, dis
torted forms instead of developing, as
they should have dore, into erect lith7
graceful beautiful figures.
To walk well it Is only necessary Il
hold the body properly poised, the chin
in and the crown of the head high. There
must be no stiffness, but grace that
tells of natural and easy poise. After
this the walk will come of itself.

TO INSPECT VOTE IN SOUTH
Republicans I'm Caucus shape PIAns
for investigation of the SOUTH
ern Election Question.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17-The repub-
lican members Of the house of representa-
tives held third caucus tonight to con-
slider the question OF southern elections
Only eighty-six republicans out of a total
OF 1e9 were present, Speaker Henderson
being among those absent. This was short
OF a quorum, but the meeting proceeded
with speedy and definite results, a resolu-
tion being adopted asking the house com
mittee on rules to report a resolution for
a political investigating committee OF
eleven members TO consider questions rela-
tive TO the Acknowledgement OF voters.
1t was agreed at the outset that the vote
should be taken at o'clock. Representa-
tive Dick Of Ohio then presented this sub
stitute for that OF Mr.. Crumpacker here
tofore introduced:
Resolved, That II is the sense of this
caucus that the committee on rules report
resolution, as a substitute for those now
pending in said committee, providing in
substance that select committee be ap-
pointed by the speaker, Consisting OF eleven
members, whose duty IL shall be and who
shail have complete power and authority
| OF election laws and the manner OF their
enforcement in the several states and
tants of any Of the states, H years old and
\ being citizens OF the United States, is denied
or In any manner abridged except for
result Of its Investigation at as early day
/ as practicable.
| The debate was brief and was favorable
to the adoption OF the resolution. Mr.
Crumpacker readily accepted the resolu.
tion in lieu Of the one he had first intro
duced. which proposed not only an investi
cation. but also fixed the remedy, namely
reduction OF representation in congress-
proportionate to the extent Of disfranchlse
ment.
1t was stated by members of the caucu
that the unanimous action by eighty 81,
members would be accepted by the com
mittee on rules, notwithstanding the alb
sence Of q quorum. and 1t was pointed ou
by these that eighty-six affirmative vote
would have been a majority II quorur

FAVoRS QUALIFIED SUFFRAGE
Taft Gives Farther Testimony on
Condition of Philippine
Islanders. rI

WASHINGTON, Feb. l7.-Governor Taft
in his testimony before the senate commit
tee on the Philippines today stated more
succinctly than he has done heretofore his
theory, which is, he said, also the theory
of the Philippine commission, as to what
congress should do in the way Of supply
ing the Philippine people with a form Of
government. His plan is, hrst, to give the
people a qualified suffrage, with a gradual
growth in popular government, which should
be enlarged through education in the Eng
lish language and in American institutions;
second, to institute within a reasonably
short time a local legislature to consist of
two bodies, one to be chosen by vote and
the other to be appointive; third, to per-
NIT the islands to send two or three repre-
sentatives to Washington. In reply TO
questions Governor Taft said he agreed
with General Funston that the establish
ment Of a popular assemblage would give
opportunity to demagogues to stir up the
people, but that he did not include In this
designation all persons who are OPP
posed to American rule. There are, he
said, many men In the islands who con-
scientiously oppose the domination Of the
United States. To grant independence
would, he thought. have the effect Of con-
Signing the ~ per cent VI uueuuCdlcu people
