PROVIDENCE OPERA HOUSE.

At the Providence Opera House for
three nights and matinee tomorrow. Mr..
Otis Skinner In George H. Boxers tragedy
Francesca da Riminl"
IL Is a good deal OF satisfaction TO be
reminded that plain every day American
wrote a poetic drama OF the caIibre Of
Boxers Francesca da RiminI., II the
task had been performed today George
II. Boxer would have been hailed as
Rostsnd or Stephen Phillips are acclaimed.
II Is stipulating TO be reminded that once
IN while one of your own aims for the
highest mark and falls little short OF hit
ting IL. In Francesca, however there is
no falling short for the average auditor.
Cast In the Shakespeanean mold, Il APP
peals more powerfully to an audience
than any except the most splendid work
OF the supreme bard.
The story OF Franseca and the two
brothers OF Rimlni Is one of the worlds
immortal love stories. The world IS
catholic In its taste I'm the matter OF love
stories that IL perpetuates and this Is not
one or It's real nice ones The theme is
far older than the story II is often re-
vived In the modern drama and is one OF
the arguments OF the problem kind of
plays.

Russia Not Responsible for the Box
 CT Outbreak.
 Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
 St. Petersburg. Friday. Jan. 10.-An English newspaper a few days ago print ed a series of alleged secret documents from a certain Dr. Alix Alur, which, if authentic, would tend to indicate that Russia instigated the Boxer movement in China for political purposes, and that the pending treaty concerning Manchuria or rather the first draft of 1t giving Rus sia exclusive rights in Mongolia and Turkestan as well, was prepared by Li Hnng Chang and the Russians before the Boxer outbreak. The documents make liberal use of the name of Prince oulxh- tomsky, and that of Mir. von Grote, who has been engaged in gold mining in Mon- golia with the aid of St. Petersburg cap ital. and American miners and mining machinery.
 The correspondent of the Associated Press showed the articles to Prince Oulxh- tomslxy. He promptly declared them as 'humbug."
 Mir von Grote, 1t is said, was a heavy loser by the Chinese troubles, machinery valued at half a million roubles being destroyed.
 Tt is a lie from beginning to end" de- clared the Prince. Furthermore. the un- preparedness of Russia and the losses she sustained do not indicate the Russian Government was better informed about the Boxers than other powers"

MRS. RICHARDSON FREE
ACQUITTED ON CHARGE OF MUIR
 DERINo HER HUSBAND
Dramatic Scene in the Court When the Verdict Was Announced- Stewart Fife Wil1 Be Tried
 For Murder.

Plattsbure, Mo-, Jan. 25.-Mrs. Addie Richardson was this afternoon acquitted of the charge of the murdering of her husband, Frank W. Richardson, wealthy merchant. who was shot and killed Christmas eve 1900.
 A dramatic scene followed the render ing the verdict. Mrs. Richardson was overwhelmed with congratulations from friends who had crowded the court room to await the arrival of the jury.
 The announcement of the verdict was received with joy. not only by Mrs. Rich ardson and her own. and her husband's s relatives. but by all of the spectators. J. D. Richardson. brother of the dead man, seized the widow around the waist and kissed her again and again. while the crowd cheered. Then her father, Adam Lawrence. embraced her. while all of her relatives and the attorneys for the defence gathered around them with congratulations. The little Richardson boys were hugged and kissed by scores
 .'The defendant Is dismissed" shouted Judge Burnes. Thank God! Thank Godr' was shouted in all parts of the room: Mrs. Richardson pressed forward and shook hands with and thanked each mem Der of the jury. tears of joy streaming down her face.
 After the trial was over Prosecuting Attorney Boohgher was asked what eff feet the verdict would have on the pros ecution of Stewart Fife. now in jail at Savannah. He said:
 Stewart Fife will be tried for the mur- der of Frank Richardson. will let jury decide whether he is guilty"
 No date has yet been fixed for Flies trial The only interest Mrs. Richardson and her relatives will have in that trial, it is asserted will be to protect the name of the widow.
 Mrs. Richardson probably will go to the home of her father in Alamo Gordo, N. M. to remain for a while.
