LAFAYETTE OPERA HOUSE-As a
facetious auditor last night expressed it. "a
Midsummer Nights Dream" has been trans
ferred from the curtain of the National to
! the stage of the Lafayette. But the process
was one of fine elaboration. The play was
given with a liberality that amounted to
sumptuousness, and there is no doubt that
a large attendance will welcome it's fairies,
spirits. dryads, imps, fays, fauns gnomes,
sylphs, sprites, elves, pixies, COLLINS and wood
| nymphs, during their stay of one week The
production Is perhaps the most notable and
| elaborate of the Lafayette's season, and is
distinct and notable achievement for the
Bellows Stock Company. This fairy comedy
of Shakespeares was given last evening be-
fore capacity audience with smoothness
and completeness indicating that conscien-
tious attention had been directed to the
| merest details. The reward Of this effort
| is harmonious and thoroughly pleasing
performance. With the representation is
included ali the vocal and instrumental
music composed for the play by Mendels-
sohn, Sir Henry Bishop and others, the
chorus having been rehearsed by Harry
Wheaton Howard. Special and entirely APP
propriate scenery and costumes have been
provided. Lillian Lawrence portrays Her
mia, Katherine Clinton Is cast as Oberon.

OATH WAS ADMINISTERED BY
JUsTICs sHIRAs OF THE UNITED
STATES SUPREME COURT.
IOWA DELEGATION PRESENT
Clerks of the Treasury Department
Sadly Bid the Retiring Secretary
Goodby and Wish Him Future
Happiness-Goes to Florida.
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, Feb. 1.-At 10:30 o'clock
today in the presence of the chief off,
cials of the treasury department, Sen
ator Dolliver and nearly all of Iowa's
delegation In the lower house of con-
gress and other friends former Gov
ernor Leslie NJ Shaw of Iowa, took the
prescribed oath of office, as secretary of
the treasury, succeeding Lyman J. Gage.
The oath was administered by Justice
Shiras of the supreme court In the larg-
est of the secretary's rooms In the treas
ury building.
Secretary Shaw was warmly con-
graduated by each person present upon
his accession to his high office. The re-
firing secretary was among the first to
grasp his hand and as he did so, said:
"Mr. Secretary, congratulate you and
wish for your administration the highest
possible degree of success"
Secretly Shaw responded:
II thank you most sincerely, and IL
my success shall be anything like that
of my predecessor, ! shall be fully satis-
fled" t-
Bid Clerks Goodby.
The new and the retiring secretaries
then received all of the officials and
clerks in che treasury building to the
number of 1000.
Secretary Gage has the love and re-
spect of the officials and clerks OF the de-
partment to a remarkable degree as was
shown In their leave-taking.
Many eyes were wet and voices trem-
bled as the chief they had known and
loved was grasped by the hand, proba-
bly, for the last time. Secretary Gage
remained in conference with his success
sor an hour or more and then left the
department.
He will go to New York tomorrow or
Monday to remain few days and in the
course of two or three weeks, will go
to Florida, for a rest of two or three
months.
From that time his movements have
not been decided upon, but 1t is alto
gether probable he will return to Chicago
and accept the presidency of a large
trust company in that city.

same articles there he replied, amid gen.
eral laughter, that In Connecticut they
were not only sold but manufactured.

Washington, Feb, 1.--Governor Taft
today continued his statement concern
ing conditions In the Philippines before
the senate committee on the Philippines.
He resumed his account OF his last
years tour OF the provinces. He said
that next to Manila, cebu came nearest
to being a city In point OF population
and manner Of Improvement than any
other place in the archipelago.
The Island OF cebu, he said. Is the
most densely settled OF the group. 1t
has been question whether civil gov
ernment should be established in Cebu
just before the arrival OF the commits
sion, the insurgents having fired Into the
capital site. but people had insisted and
the organization had been effected.
In most, If not all the islands, Governor
Taft said there is a mountain backbone
which is practically impas:able. In his
tour Governor Taft had found the in
dustries In progress, though much inter-
rupted, largely on account Of the de-
struction OF the water buffalo, the work
cattle Of the island.
This animal he described as the beast
OF burden, the family fsiend, the wealth
of the individual and the object of all
the robber bands OF the mountain dis
trcts."
Have Need of Cows.
In the last two years about 75 per
cent Of these brutes had been killed off
by disease called riDderpest and their
price had increased from $50 to $40 per
head.
He expressed the opinion that mules
and milk producing animals might be
imported to advantage. There are fine
cattle ranges, but to his knowledge no
milk is produced ON the islands.
Resuming the thread OF his narrative.
Governor Taft said the island of cebu
was not long organized into a civilized
government until II was found nccessaS
TO return to military control.
He had been informed just before his
departure for the. United States that
three or four hundred insurgents on the
island had surrenderol and the island
had been entirely tranquilized.
This statement led Senator Hale to
ask question:
within the past 80 days" he said, II
have observed by the newspapers that
there were Al small fights within the
space of 30 days.
Settle Their Differences.
The reply was that most of these en-
counters had taken place in Batangas,
Laguna, Mindoro, Boho Samar, Cebu
and few other places. Most of the
troops are In those provinces.
You speak," said Senator Cu.berson
as the witness progressed, "of Disagree
ments between the civil and military au-
thorites as to whether there should be
civil or military control Of certain
district. In such cases who determines
az to what shall be done?"
THAT" replied Governor Taft, 'is a
question Of instructions, or rather Of
construction of Instructions; but we have
gotten along so far without radical dis
agreement
"One difficulty OF this kind was sub
mitted to Washington and we were told
that we must reconcile our differences.
