James ]. Corbett, George Felix and Lydia
Barry. Hill and Silvainy, Jules Hickey
and Amy Nelson. the Sander trio, little
Elsie, Oscar p. Siss0n and Ester Wal

Mr.. Corbett is the former champion
heavyweight pugilist of the world, who
has spent two seasons in vaudeville and
who, with his monologue. has made him
self almost as conspicuous in his new
sphere as he was in his former field.
Time has proved that Mr. Corbett's in

money getting exploit Whatever laurels
he owns he has earned by dint of his
ability TO please.
George Felix and Lydia Barry belong to
the class of vaudevillians who were rip
ened for their present exploits by expert
ence in the legitimate drama. Mr.. Felix
is versatile comedian and Miss Barry
is a charming artistic, and with their
comedy novelty, The Vaudeville Craze"
they should prove worthy of their exalted
position on the programme

forth. that part is David Harum. in the
dramatization of Westcott's novel of that
name. which is now completing its second
year on the stage.

case by his action in placing himself out
side the pale Of the church.
Mr.. Henness, after maintaining silence
stubbornly for a year, said that the reason
he left his wife was for continual
''nagging." which broke down his health
and rendered It impossible for him to do
ministerial work. The charge against him
before the conference was simply his sep
aration from his wife, whom he agreed to
support, but refused to live with. No
question Of immortality was involved, the
claims OF the prosecution being that MIR.
Henness' conduct was unclerical, and that
a minister so separated should not be sent
out as pastor over a church by the bishop.
Mr.. Henness will go to North Dakota to
engage in the mining business. His friends
say that a movement will start from his
case to have the general quadrennial con-
ference OF the Methodist chuch take &C
ton against one OF the oldest and most
prominent bishops. who also was sep
arated from his wife under similar condi-
lions.

WOLVES ARE LESS PLENTIFUL
Killing on of Rabbits and the Work
of Hunters Assigned as
Cause.

CHEYENNE, wyo., Sept. 21.-(specIal.)-
At the last session of the state legislature.
held in January. 1901, the appropriation Of
5000 was authorized as a fund for bounty
on predatory wild animals during the en-
suing two years from April 1. 1901. To
date the sum Of $24,O63 has been paid out,
leaving a balance of SIS, 1897 for the remain
ing seven months, or until the expiration of
the two years to be covered by the appro-
priation. This indicates that wolves and
coyotes are either decreasing in numbers,
or else ranchmen are not hunting them
with the same vigor as heretofore. Ranch
men report that the prairie pests are mi
grating to the ranges of Montana and the
British possessions, and advance as their
reason for thinking so that the almost COM
plete determination Of rabbits and other
small animals in the state has made 1t nee
essary for wolves to seek greener pastures.
Then, too, the campaign waged against the
pests by ranchmen and professional hunt
ers, who usually hunt out the dens OF cubs
and destroy the pups, has had much to do
with the depleted numbers OF wolves and
coyotes on the plains.

Pulls Not Potent with Him.
II is remarkable how little recognition
lie accorded by the speaker to what Is usu-
ally termed influence. Oncial and social
relations have been strained to the utmost
on certain occasions to secure his sup
port or opposition to measures before the
house, but the most that can be said Is
that the persons interested secured an au-
dience and their representations we're care
fully considered. Having had no political
ambition further than to occupy his pres
ent position, the speaker has not dabbled
in politics, and because OF his social in
dependence he has been free from most Of
the influences to which a weaker and less
Independent man might have been sub
jected. Above all the speaker ~pos--5es

the immediate circle that surrounds him
in the house, with the result that no
longer do the so-called leaders undertake
to ride ~roughshod over their following.
Nor is the control OF the house vested in
a close corporation, for the speaker and
the more influential OF his lieutenants are
constantly on the lookout for new mate
rial, and members who demonstrate their
ability as Legislators, parliamentarians or
debaters are sure to have their talents
recognized and their positions correspond
ingly advanced.
However bitterly the speaker may have
been denounced for his so-called tyranny,
A. may be safely said that he has held his
commanding position by the will of the
members Of his party and by reason OF his
own sagacity, carefulness. conservatism
and in the recognition OF these qualities

Before leaving for the east Speaker Hen

from the house, denied any intention Of
"abdicating'' his present position until his

clared himself in perfect accord with the
tariff views Of President Roosevelt. as
enunciated in his Cincinnati speech.
"I have spent twenty years of my life

answer. When told that Secretary Shaw
