An unquestionable and substantial proof
forthcoming presentation OF the convui-
sing farce, THE Brixton Burglary" by
the Albee company at Keiths Is the ex-
tremely large advance sale for the next
week, when that funny farce will be pro-
duced This play was produced with
great success everywhere only last year.
proving one of the most pleasing offer
ings OF the past theatrical season OF this
city II having been shown here earlier
In the season. This comedy Is OF the
most farccal type, much resembling In
type What Happened to Jones'" which
was such a strong favorite with Keith
patrons last summer. In the Albee com
pany's production Mr. Caldara viii have
one OF the most important roles OF the
play, and on Monday evening, June %,
another Souvenir Night will be commem-
Grated by photographs of Mr.. Caldara
being given to patrons.

Keith's was crowded last evening. every
available seat being sold long in advance
and standing room being eagerly sought.
The occasion was another OF the popular
Souvenir Nights which have come 20 be
looked for 80 eagerly by Keithites. Last
evening photographs OF the little ia
vorte, Miss Ingram were given to pa
irons, and that was sufficient alone TO
crowd any theatre. Miss Ingram holds
a warm place In the hearts Of Providence
theatre-goers. a place which her delight
full personality and her natural and truly
clever acting has earned for her.

Mr. Humphreys performance OF Rob
Dow I'm the Albee company's production
OF THE Little Minister" at Keith's this
week, is among the best work he has yet
done In this city. which is conceding a
great deal. when one remembers the many
excellent assumptions he has given here.
His Rob Dow is a splendid chsracteriza-
tion. full OF strength. fire and loyalty
IN short Il Is only another proof that
whatever role Mr. Humphrey plays he
graces the character and more firmly
establishes himself in the opinions OF local
theatregoers as one OF the few true ar
lists ever seen I'm this city.

lar sentiment. 1 should suggest that, in
the higher civilization of the future, the
Aryan will initiate the Mongol of to-day,
and learn to regard death simply and
sedately, neither despising it with theatre
cal stoicism, nor aggrandzing it in i'm
agination, and kowtowing to ii as to a
king of Terrors." The value of this con-
ception is neither here nor there. 1t may
be deplorable nonsense. 1 use it merely
as an instance of a general proposition,
which might easily be embodied in dra-

DIR. Meyers summing up of Sudermann
is that while he is qualified Ito compete
with Hauptmann and Ibsen for the laurels
of dramatic fame he rests content with
the mere stage articles of a Sardou and
Dumas" A little hard on Dumas, this Off
hand bracketing. At the same time, &C
cording to the critic, Sudermann shares
with Ibsen 1.-The gift of genuine keenest
humor," while "Zola, Hauptmann and
Tolstoy have not a vestige of it," How
anyone can deny humor to Hauptmann,
the author of der Biberpelz" and Der
Rothe Hahn" passes my comprehension.

NOTES OF THE STAGE.
william Winter Makes Denial of Par
tfaIfty to aCamflIe,

A newspaper writer in Cleveland had the
temerity to assert that the veteran William
Winter, OF the New York Tribune, though
he mercilessly fiayed Iris and other plays
OF Arthur Wing Pinero. had never con-
demned the Camille" of the younger
Dumas. The Clevelander said he had fol-
lowed the work OF Mr.. Winter with CON
slant delight for his beauty of phrase, rich
ness OF imagery, loyalty TO the highest pur-
poses of the stage. and. save in those in
stances where his heart gets the better of
his brain. his sanity OF Judgment" This
prettiness did not save the blunderer
scathing when Mr.. Winters eyes beheld the
criticism OF him. THE attitude OF the New
York Tribune" he retorted in his part of
that newspaper. toward the drama of
Camille and toward all plays OF its kindred
has invariably been that OF explicit disap-
probation. and the play of Camille has
been condemned in this column over and
over again, as everybody knows who has
read the Tribune for any length of time or
with intelligent attention" Mr.. Winter
quoted a part Of his criticism OF one OF
Bernhardt's performances OF Camille in
which be made this comment: Camille
this hectic and calorific female who has been
lingering at the point OF death for about
half a century" Finally Mr.. Winter dealt
out this rebuke: 1T would be easy to cite
from the Tribune OF past years many other
passages by the same writer still more Bit
terry condemnatory OF Camille The doc
trine that such plays are Ioathsome and
pernicious is no new doctrine with this
Journal or with It's dramatic representa-
tive. and persons. whether In Cleveland or
elsewhere. who think that IL is have taken
very little pains 10 foster their intelli-
gence." That. one thinks. should satisfy

The morning sun has smiled on you.'
The autumn flowers heard the call
And laughed to the dead leaves fall

And all are fair and glad save one.

With whisperings OF sky and plain.
He sings. oh. open. lids OF blue

Oh, wake, and hear the hum OF bees
And with thy robe OF blue unfurled
Behold the sky and beauteous world"
She family hears, she longs and thrills
To see the wondrous sky and hills
But fate Is stern: the breeze is gone.
She opened not and still dreamed on.
And all day long the butterfly
Beheld her closed and fitted by.

Joseph Jefferson and his company will
give a performance Of THE Rivals at
English's tomorrow evening. Bob Acres
has been in Mr.. Jefferson's repertory for
over a quarter OF a century, and, as his
press agent says, "a million people have
seen it" Mr.. Jefferson alternates in THE
Rivals" and RIP Van Winkle." and his
advance manager, in preparing announce
ments for the newspapers, writes the same
notices for both plays at the beginning OF
the season and makes the few alterations
necessary as the presentation Of either
piece demands. Mr.. jefferson Is Mr.. JET
ferson, and whatever the play the public
has been taught not to care. The exhibition
Of his personality has been enough to
draw great crowds for years. and he has
grown younger and healthier by reveling
In prosperity. Critics view him amiably
and the public holds him in affection. How
many more years he viii continue on the
stage it would be absurd to attempt to
predict, but it is certain that he will make
no extension Of his worn repertory.

nounced that the production of Richard

Mr.. Whiteside is an earnest and studious
young actor, and opportunities to hear the
Shakespeare play read are so infrequent
that they should be welcomed as a relief
from much OF far less consequence and in
terest that is offered in the theaters.

ing Fire.
Heavy Losses Fall Upon
Several Business
Firms.

A destructive FIRE swept away
one of the best blocks in the BUSH
ness section of Cadiz Sunday morn
! ing.
The business houses burned
were:
Bank of Cadiz, z. E. Wash, pres
ident.
Rowl's saloon.
J. J. Carton, dry goods.
H. NJ. Carton & Son, hardware.
F. p. Cook, racket store.
VIM. Lynch, dry goods.
Cowherd 81 Chappell, groceries.
Office Cumberland Telephone Co.
Cadiz Hotel, owned by Hon. Jas.
B. Garnet and B F. Goodwin, run
by Mr.. Alexander.
The fire originated at three O. clock
in the morning in Rawl's saloon
and as the town is without FIRE pro.
lection, the block was doomed from
the start.
1t spread from one storehouse to
another and did not stop until the
handsome two-story brick hotel
was burned with the rest of the
square.
Hon, Jas. B. Garnettt's law Office
was over the Bank of Cadiz and as
he was at Dawson, his fine library
was completely destroyed.
The insurance was very small
and the losses will fall heavily upon
most of the merchants burned out.
MIR. Rawls, the proprietor Of the
saloon, had a close call. He was
sleeping up stairs in the same
building and escaped in his night
clothes through the smoke and
flames below just in time to keep
from being cut off.
The total loss is estimated at
$4,000. The Cadiz Hotel building
was insured for $4,000, and ]. J.
Carton had 81 900. Nothing def
ate is known about further in
surance.
