Variety at the Empire.

The habitues of the Empire Theaters
gallery were so boisterous at the perform
ance of the Rentz-Santley burlesque COM
pany last night that it was with difficulty
that the performance was carried through.
There was no apparent excuse for the noise
which came from that part Of the house.
At one time during the opening burlesque
when Charles Robinson, with three other
men, essayed some comedy the densely
ignorant thugs of the gallery resorted to
a shower of abuse on the performers. Not
content with that they threw several mis-
siles toward those on the stage. Those in
the upper part of the house fail to consider
that the tOmfOolery that takes place in
this theater is meant to burlesque some
legitimate performance. If they would
have the legitimate performances let them
patronZe the theaters where such per-
formances take place and then in turn go
TO the Empire and see the burlesques ON
the plays.
Daisy Dumont. who opens the clio with a
series of songs, was not permitted to make
her appearance as she should on account
of the riotous proceedings in the gallery.
When she was allowed to continue those
in the lower part of the house seemed to
like her work. Gruet and Gruet two
black-face comedians. who dress i'm gOr-
geous satin coats, give some acrobatic
dancing and conclude their act by giving
Alice Willard and Henrietta Wheeler
Charles Robinson, James and Sadie Leon
ard and a Juggler named Lyons complete
the oliO and give several good things in
their respective lines.
The show closes with a buresque entitled
Under Two Jags," satire on Under
Two Flags" Some of the lines of the lat
ter have been retained in the burlesoue
numbers. The show will remain until to-
morrow night.

QUESTION OF TRUSTS.
The question of inserting a plank touch
ing upon the trusts produced lengthy dis
cussion. Allusion was made to the fact
that the price of meat has advanced ap-
parently on account of action of the So
called beef trust. 1t was decided TO write a
plank condemning forms of monopoly which
tend TO restrict business and to control
prices. At the same time, most of the lead
ers present took the view that the evolution
of commerce and industry has necessi-
tated certain forms of combination in or
der that industrial development may be
attained Individuals, it was said. fail 10
achieve the important results necessary for
the growth of the country that combina-
tiOns properly administered, achieve.
Another topic discussed with interest was
the question OF the selection of delegates
to the state conventions. r. . Hawkins
was selected to prepare suggestions TO be
presented TO the state central committee.
During the course of discussion George r.
McCullOch remarked that in many locali-
ties it seemed as if candidates by force Of
custom, had come to select their own dele
gates Addison G. Harris Immediately re-
marked THAT is practice which should
be quickly stopped" The remainder Of the
discussion on that point indicated that there
seems to be a feeling that the present meth
cd of selecting delegates may be improved
upon.
After adjournment was taken Senator
Fairbanks and the half dozen congressman
who were present held a sort of informal
reception for friends and constituents who
appeared to grasp their hands.

PLATFORM UTTERANCES.

Political Questions.
Elkhart Review.

Elkhart Review.
Because of the prominence of the question
of our relation to Cuba and the Phillip
pines the Nation is turning to the meeting
of Indiana Republicans this week and their
utterances regarding these two duties of
the Nation with decided interest and with
evident determination TO act upon what
ever wise advice the Indiana platform shall
contain Perhaps the most important ma
tional question in this relation to Cuba is
it's commercial aspects and in the carrying
out of that principle which was uttered by
President Mckinley of doing full justice To
this little island. The events of the past
few days in Congress have not beech as
surfing that Congress is disposed TO perform
such conscientious obligation. because of
the interference of special interest and the
disposition OF parties TO seek partisan ad-
vantage from the demands of conscientious
responsibility. Indiana Republicans will no
doubt speak in plain language on this ques-
ton, demanding a performance Of Obliga-
ton.
Senator Beveridge. the chairman OF the
coming convention. has been one of the most
ardent students OF the Philippine question,

Convention Press Tickets.

The limited space in the convention hall
for the number of persons to be accommo-
dated caused the state committee to place
the distribution OF press tickets in the
hands of one person, to make sure that all
representatives of the press would be ac-
commodated. T. T. Singleton, of Martins
vile, president of the Republican Editorial
Association, was designated to distribute
tickets for all newspaper people in the
State outside of Indianapolis. Press bureau
correspondents and representatives of the
Indianapolis press will be supplied by the
state committee. Mr.. Singleton will be at
Rooms los and 100, Denison Hotel Wednes-
day morning and about the Denison Hotel
until II o clock noon, Wednesday, to supply
with tickets those in attendance upon the

overlooked. Thursday morning from s 10

OBJECT TO THE RULE.
Persons Complain Who Wanted TO
Pay Assessments.

A suit will probably be brought to test
the right of County Treasurer Koehne to
close the treasurers Office at o'clock. Re
Gently there has been much complaint on
the part of persons who go to the court
house to pay their taxes and Barrett-law
assessments after o'clock to find the doors
of the treasurer's office closed. This dis
appointment is especially noticeable at the
expiration OF the time for paying taxes and
Barrett-law assessments Yesterday was
the last day for paying the latter and there
were many persons shut out OF the office
at o'clock. Included among the number
was William Lowery. a real-estate man. lie
said that If the penalty for delinquency is
added 10 his assessment he will bring suit.
Treasurer KOehne established this rule.

The Vaudeville at the Grand.

Leon Morris shows some trained ponies,
a trained dog end a trained colored man
at the Grand opera House. The ponies
have drill. the dog rides on ponys back
and the colored man wrestles with two of
the ponies. He wears a canvas suit and
the ponies maui him around roughly. The
act is amusing and spirited. Morris in
herited his skill with the ponies from his
father, and the way he cracks his whip
and the CELEBRITY OF his pupils remind one
of Prof. Lewis Norris" who was young
Morris's father. The father used to give
his show at the Grand and il was heavily
patronized The Morris famiIy's home was

the rags on the floor, and. choosing from
the pile, pin them against black back
ground. The work is fast and the results
effective. One of the pictures is of house
tops In winter. To get the effect of dis
lance, piece of gauze is hung between
the houses in the foreground and the ir-
regular horizon line. 1t is a pleasing and
interesting act
Willis and Hassan have an acrobatic act

known "Stein Song" with a large bass
voice and immense solemnity AS an en-
core he gives the old-time Rocked in the
Cradle of the Deep and sends his voice
away down. Lew Hawkins has a resume
of the poor jokes of this and other seasons.
He works in black-face, though he has no
negro dialect and gives no other reason
why he should not appear with a clean face
and neatly dressed. Ascot and Eddy open
the bill dismally with commonplace aero
batic tricks and silly old comedy. The
biograph has new pictures.

great many jokes TO crack, some of great
age, while others are younger The show
opens with burlesque on scenes in the
Philippine islands. There is a number of
songs in this act, and some clever dancing.
Following the burletta is an olio made
up of singing and dancing. Emma Thomp-
son leads with several coon songs, and is
followed by the TrOubadour quartet. Mack
Allen gives performance on a slack wire.
Sisseretta Jones, better known as 1.-The
Black Patti" follows with the singing of
several well-sslected songs. Cecil and AL
Watts have a few minutes TO themselves
on the front of the stage. and indulge in
personal talk and also crack jokes. John
Rucker is again seen, as he closes the oliO
by giving limitations of the old Southern
negro and he also sings several songs.
The show is brought to a close with an
operate sketch, in which 1.-The Black PATTI
and others of the company sing the latest
songs. There is enough ragtime in the
show to satisfy the most capacious con-
sumner of that musical commodity.
