WASHINGTON 5

Each succeeding year brings changes
In the diplomatic corps at Washington,
and interest always surrounds the new
Corners who are to make their first
bows to society in the national CAPT
tai. This season presents many stran-
gers, for there have been numerous
changes among the representatives Of
foreign governments.
Uncle Sam now has diplomatic rela-
tons with more than thirty countries,
which arc represented at the American
capital by six embassies and thirty
legations.
The nearest approach to the pOmp
and pageantry of royal court, with
its emblems and insignia of rank, its
stately ceremonials and dazzling splen-
dor of gorgeous uniforms, is to be
found in the assemblages Of the diplO-
matte corps. In glitter, sparkle and
color these levees present the most at
tractive of all the spectacular features
of social life at the national capital.
Since the consequences of the Span
ish-American war have installed the
United States in the position of a
world power the diplomatic contingent
has been growing larger year by year
until now representatives of nearly ev
cry land and cline are to be found in
the foreign colony.
ambassadors are the bright particu-
lar stars of the diplomatic armament,
not only enjoying higher rank than
plenipotentiaries, but are considered to
represent more directly their sovereign
or government.
There are only few occasions each
year, however, when the general public

to Washington in the spring with their
grandmother, with whom they will live
after their arrival here.
Baron Moncheur has taken the house
of the late Senator and Mrs. Davis,
1710 II street, and Is furnishing it very
handsomely for the reception Of his
bride. The minister and his bride will
doubtless entertain extensively, as the
baron enjoys society.
More than usual interest is manifest
ed In the new Persian minister, who
succeeds General Isaac Khan, one OF
the most popular members Of the diplo-
matte corps. On his arrival in Wash
ington he was. entertained at q large
dinner given in his honor by the Rus
sian ambassador and Countess Cassini,
thus receiving his introduction to social
life under the most happy auspices.
Rhya Akharaj, the Siamese envoy,

elephant Is sacred creature, housed
in a golden palace, fed and attended
by awestricken domesticS and served

Cording to the international fashion of

Incarceration Ia the county jAii
pending his tiial In the Federal
court, Miller was in the habit Of re
gardipg his fellow prisoners with
stories of his adventures. These
we're subse qrently learned by the
Federal authorities, Tor no walls
have so many official ears as prison
walls. One Of Miller's best stories
was the one wherein Mrs. Collins
vert bathing with one of her dupes
AS related by postoffice inspector
Miller tod 1t this way:
I'VE use to advertise that q
' oung girl wanted husband, or
al elderly lady with money wanted
husband, and Mrs. Collins an
swered all the requests. We mad

The list of cities whicn the post

the sleeping car rates. We would

fare and Pullman car money. I.

graphs, though we did not like 10
do it. If we did not get the rail-
road fare we would make play
for a diamond engagement ring
The suckers used to c. me to see
US, and we worked them all right.
We would tell them, after We mad
them on the string for day OF
two, that we were going to the
next town to visit friends. and
start them home In good humor.

It was a tough deal.

young fellow who came up from
Southern California He had given
Grace diamond engagement ring
and wanted to be married right off.
He thought the woman was worth
lot of money. We did got want
any marriages ard we cared little
about the theatre tickets they used
to buy. This fellow was hanging
around TOO long; we had other iel-
lows waiting to meet their intend
ed At last Grace told him she
was dead stuck on surt bathing and
off they went for the beach. She
wore her diamond engagement ring
and when they were In the water
she made a holy show oft. When

ring I have left it on the washstand
In the pavilion. Run like mad and
get it,
"The fellow could not start quick
enough. If he ran his mile as fast
as we did ours In another direction,
he made record. We never saw
him since. Grace had stuck the
ring In her pocket. We had to get
out of town"
Diamond rings were promptly
turned into money 1--WE liked to
get hold OF them" Miller said, "be
cause they were good as currency.
What he hated was when the fools
would buy silver toilet sets and put
her initials on. That trash was not
worth the weight of klndling to US
Grace got about a ton OF that a
year"
Miller's rise In the criminal
world Is an example of what perse-
verance will do. He was originally
a dairyman In San Francisco, but
by close observation Of what men
will do to make fools of themselves,
he advertised In a matrimo nial ps-
per that he had several women
wanting husbands. Mrs. Collins
was on the same lay and the pair
met. Theroad to San 0 leptin, the
California peniteniiAry, was then a
short one.

binary way. Where green timber
10 inches and over in diameter is
cut into cordwood it is charged as
timber, and two cords are consid-
cred equal to 1000 feet board
measure.
3 The scaling will be lone
according to the conditions of the
cage. If the cutting is on d suffi-
GENTLY large scale, it. will be done
in such a way as to keep up with
the work; otherwise, the scaling
will be done at set times.
IA. All timber must be marked
with the U. S. stamp before it may
be removed.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS.
The following considerations are
of special Importance:
1. Applications will be attended
to in the order in which they are
received; but exceptions to this
rule will occur, with special local
conditions, such as isolation or
particular cutting, great distances,
insufficient force of workers, etc.
2. All applications in any re-
serve will be held up and delayed
whenever it becomes evident that
the reserve force, for any reason
whatever, fails to carry out the
work according to the prescribed
regulations.
3. In every case, the timber
purchased is not the amount called
for in the application, but the
amount actually found on the cut
ting area as located and marked
out by the forest officer. If there
is less timber on this area than the
applicant desires, he must make
new application, but is never al
lowed to cut over the original line
as laid down for his case.
4 The following violations of
the regulations will be regarded as
trespass, and will lead to a suspen-
sion of all operations until the case
is settled:
a. Cutting across the line sur
rounding the cutting area;
b. Cutting of unmarked timber;
C. Removal of any material be-
fore it is properly scaled and
stamped or marked.
B. Since a considerable time is
necessarily required in attending to
any case of timber sale, and the
law positively forbids any short
cut methods, the pubic is earnestly
requested not to delay applications
of this kind,
6. When the applicant fails to
hear of his application in rea-
sonable time, say thirty days, he
should address letters both to the
supervisor and to the honorable
Commissioner of the General Land
Office, W Washington, d. G.
Z. Any incivilities, or evident
neglect on the part of the forest
officers which binders the pur-
chaser in his work or endangers
bis case by giving to it the appear
ance of willful or negligent tres
pass, should he reported to the
supervisor, and, if not promptly
corrected, should be reported to the
Commissioner of the General Land
Office.
8. Trespassers, in the absence
of proper settlement for the tres
pass, will not be awarded timber.

Grand opera House.

| A delighted audience enjoyed the per l formance by those popular stars and
 vaudeville artists composing the Bow i niery Burlesquers at the Grand Opera
 House last evening. The company ! opened the fun, which at times became 1 uproarious, with burIesque on a trip 1 to the Pan-American exposition, in which highly amusing incidents follow
 ed rapidly one after the other, the touch 1 of the Midway given capping the eli
 max and bringing out roars of applause and merriment. Then followed the olio,
 in which galaxy of excellent and skill ful artists in speciality and novelty acts i participated. Among them are Gilbert and Goldie, the Taylor Trio, Henshaw and Franciola, Hays and Suits, Neva Aymar, Nacirema Twins and Yutak- mee, who Is acknowledged to be the lyric Juno of the burlesque world The fun was fast and furious. and the ar lists set rapid pace from beginning to end. After the olio there was another burlesque, in which the entire company appeared, entitled Summing" show ing what Is seen among the lower crust of society on the Bowery and around East Side, New York. This was very interesting and very amusing also. AL together the performance gave much satisfaction.
 The Burlesquers will appear again to- night and to- o-morrow night, with mati- nee tomorrow
 Hal Reid's latest success "At Grip pie Creek" will be produced at the Grand opera house Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week, and at the Saturday matinee. Three hours of thrilling and varied excitement are furnished by this drama, teeming with the vicssitudes of Colorado life in the early eighties The "Temple of David. :" a den of the vilest character, is shown in the first act. It is a rendezvous of a band of desperadoes headed by the vilainous Martin Mason The victims of treachery and crime are followed in breathless suspense until the rescue by the undaunted Dynamite Ann" aided by Joe Manield The daring of the Sioux, Waketah, who swings out over yawning canon and rescues little Tat to. is only paralleled by the saving of Belle Gordon, by Joe Mayfield, the own CT of the Last Dollar mine. Bright and sparkling bits of comedy light up the rough and homeless camp life. Novel and startling stage sets add to the picturesque environment.
 'The Eleventh Hour" a comedy in five acts with fine scenic effects which has made great hit, will be presented at the Grand Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, February 3, 4 and 5. It contains many bright situations and climaxes and most gorgeous scenery; the cast is composed of thoroughly competent artists. The play was writ ten by Lincoln J. Carter, author of the
 Fast Mail, Heart oI Chicago" Down Mobile" and other successes.
