ton his achievements have been in the
line and on the same high elevation of
Henry Irving. but he has the special
merit of playing only those plays-and
they We're specially written for him
that concern the life and aspirations OF
these times. In other words, Willard
is one of the vital forces of the Eng
fish stage. In a single season in Lon
don he established himself as a star of
the very first importance, having been
long known as unapproachable in Ger
tain lines of character acting. He fore
saw his own success. for he became the
lessee of the salisbury theatre, COM
missioned Henry Arthur Jones to write
4 play for him. and took his rank as
by right. This first great play produced
by him was The Middleman, by this
distinguished author.
Mr. Wizards presentation of the
play in this city though many years
ago, remains a fre.sh and decidedly
pleasing recollection. IT is a pleasure
TO anticipate his return at an early
date in the same drama.

of the farm which the city bred man,
or the metrOpolitanized country man,

love rural drama is surprisingly large.
Many people who 90 to see plays OF

and partly because, the rustic drama
with its quaint types is the only kind
that appeals to them. In either case
the excuse is distinctly complimentary
TO the rural drama. There is another
elass of people who go to the rustic
play and really enjoy it. but who i'm
agine that il is necessary TO apologize
for going. These are the city people
of the blase type, the men or women
who have see it all, and who assume
to be bored by everything. This is the

Declined to Accept the Suggestion Of
the Chief Executive.

Wilkesbarre, Oct. president Nit.
chell and three of the district presidents

arrive arrive there at $3.50 this evening
They refused to say what their mission
was or who they will meet.
wilkesbarre, Oct. S.-President John
Mitchell and three district presidents
returned to this city from Buffalo this
morning Mitchell had nothing to say
regarding yesterdays trip and also de-
clined to discuss Roosevelt's PROPOSE
ton for ending the strike.
He would not even indicate when he
would give an answer to the president,
but 1t is not probable he will do so un-
til after he has received reports from all
the local unions, which will meet today
in accordance with his instructions to
take action on the question whether
their members shall continue on the
strike.
Several locals met yesterday and last
night. All OF them voted to stay out
and 1t is predicted that when the COM
plete returns are in it will be found the
vote to continue the strike will be near
ly unanimous.
AT IL o'clock today Mitchell made the
following statement to the Associated
Press:
.Up to this hour at least thirty tele-
graphic reports have been received
from the local unions, giving the action
taken by them last night and this
morning. Those reports are substan-
TALLY as follows: The mine workers

there is not a dissenting vote. The vote

locals and all will have been heard

answer to President Roosevelt, but de-
clines to state its nature. The let
ter was dictated before noon and Is
now in the mails on its way to Wash
ington. Mitchell will not give out the
nature Of the letter, because 1t would
be discourteous to the president.

GAIN IN ARMY MANEuvERs.
Officers Think Good Results Will Fol
low Fort Riley Practice.

Fort Riley, Kas., Oct. 8.-Yesterday's
maneuvers were fine things to perform,
but poor things to look at for those
wishing to see any of the pomp ani
circumstance of war. The exercise, in
brief, was the deployment o. a line of
battle preparatory to making an attack
upon an enemy in position. With the
close of the maneuyers ther,, seems to
be but one opinion among the regulars
and National Guard officers concerning
them. All believe that excellent results
have been obtained during the present
series, and that much greater good
could be accomplished by ananeuvers
conducted upon scale more extensive.
