where game was plenty. This man
had horse and wagon. and drove the
hunters down to some imaginary lakes
near Tome. The ran drove away and
lett them to walk back to town, some
six miles. They failed to make connec-
tons with the plentiful game and of
corsse came home foot sore and dis

A special dispatch from Washington,
ID. c.. to the Denver Republican under
date OF December s. says.
Delegates Rodey OF New Mexico and
Smith OF Arizona are positive In stat.
ing that the statehood bill will be pass
cd by the senate when called up for a
vote Wednesday. They assert that the
reports that President Roosevelt Is
against admission is without founda.
ton. but on the contrary that the pres
ident is strongly in favor of having the
claims of all tn:oe territories recog.
nized
They also deny reports in circulation
that the chief interest of Senator Quay
In the statehood fight is TO have his
business partner. former State Senator
w II. Andrews. Of Pennsylvania, now
living In New Mexico. made one of the
first United states senators from New
Mexico and to have n brother of Sena-
tor Penrose. living in Arizona, made
one of the senators from that state.
Notwithstanding the confidence ex-
pressed In the result by Messrs. Rodey
and Smith. the opinion prevails that
the statehood advocates will not win
Mt this session.
Senator Beveridge is preparing the
report OF the committee on territories
and expects to present 1t Wednesday.
The opposition of the committee to the
lat, 90 Noxtra NJ Arivann will
probably be based on the fact that a
large percentage of these territ cries
do not speak English. and In many OF
the courts interpreters are necessary.
This Is taken to indicate that the pop
ulation Is backward In learning Eng
fish. 1t is likely to be contested.
The report will probably say also
that the agricultural resources of Ari-
IONA have been so fully developed that
large increase of people who till the
soil cannot be expected. especially
since the available land is arid and can
be redeemed only by costly irrigation
enterprises.
The Arizona mining regions are said
to be at the high tide of prosperity.
but may not remain So and there IL
believed to be no stability In the min
ing population.

the opposition to statehood for New
Mexico and Arizona. Is urging the re.
publican members OF the senate to eau
Gus on the proposition. but it has yet
not peen determined to do this.

Der s, wired that paper as follows:
II Is becoming general talk at the
capital that the president will veto
the omnibus statehood bill. should the
senate pass It. Senator Beveridge and
other republican members OF the
territories committee have had an in

the bringing about of that result,

Lafayette Square Theater.

In The Adventures of Lady Ursula" the
stock company at the Lafayette will have
one OF the best opportunities of the season
for really excellent work. The play was
used for some time as starring vehicle by
e. H. Sothern and his wife, Virginia Har-
ned, and proved to be an entertaining and
thoroughly successful romantic drama of
the quieter kind.
The plot of the play Is simple but inter-
esting. To save her brother from the con-
sequences Of a rash quarrel the Lady Ur-
sula Darlington masquerades as a boy and
visits the brothers opponent. The conse-
quences that ensue from this rash act form
the basis for two OF the cleverest acts OF
the modern school of playwrting and pre-
sent an absorbingly interesting play. The
opportunities that the play offer for hand
some costuming and artistic stage settings
will doubtless be utilized to the fullest ex-
tent, the reputation of the management OF
the Lafayette being quite sufficient on this
point to guarantee completeness in all the
details that go to make up successful
performance,

sas hills, bids fair to outlive THE Old
Homestead" in popularity, 1t having been
played throughout the country continuous
ly since Its first presentation seven years
ago. Like the last-named play, 1t Is said
to possess to an unusual degree the in
definable element known as heart inter-
est" The story is one that never fails to
hold the attention of the audience through
out Its telling. Thrilling incidents follow
so closely upon one another that the in
terest never flags. Comedy situations are
also plentifully supplied by two OF the
characters. an impecunious tramp and a
faithful negro servant. The scenic equip
ment this season will be entirely new, the
past summer having been devoted to Sc
curing new models and the building and
painting of new scenery. A prominent
member Of the company will be George w.

who will be the only soloist on the occa-
sion.
The work of bringing this orchestra into
existence has been due to the great energy
of Mr.. De Koven, who, in a series of con-
ferences with Washington musicians, final
" brought a force together that agreed TO
work IN harmony with his ideas. It was
due to Mr.. De Koven that sufficient money
was subscribed to maintain an orchestra for
two years. even IL every concert was given
at loss. and when he presented that fact
to the musicians they at once enlisted I'M
der his banner. 1t was due to him also
that the first concert starts off under such
splendid auspices with a soloist OF the
highest rank, for De Koven and Paderewski
are warm personal friends, and the interest
OF the pianist In the new orchestra was
made manifest when he gave his recital
here some weeks ago.
For this first concerto there have been
but limited number of rehearsals, but the
interest shown by the players in their work
has been very marked. and 1t may safely
be predicted that they will give a good &C
count of themselves, not only in the num-
bers for orchestra alone, but in the accom-
paniment to the great pianist
