BIENNIAL MEETING
OF GENERAL FEDERATION

Club women who expect TO attend the
sixth biennial meeting of the General
Federation of Women's Clubs, which will
be held In Los Angeles in May, will be
given many opportunities of increasing by
personal observation their knowledge of
California. The members of the Biennial
Local Board will assist visitors in every
way possible in seeing all that is pecu-
liarly characteristic OF the country.
That the plans for the entertainment of
the club women are complete and elabor-
ate and that the local board has done
its work faithfully may be judged by the
following announcement sent out by the
chairman of the press COMMITTEES:
A circular letter has been sent to all the
presidents of federated clubs asking for
a certified list Of their club members
who are neither delegates nor alternates-
who expect to be present at the Sixth BIZ
enpial. in order that tickets of admis-
sion may be forwarded fol their use.
1t has not perhaps been understood-since
many are dilatory and careless when re-
plying-that without these tickets club
members will not be admitted to the
NEE tings. Hence the urgent necessity for
promps action.
Thursday. May g. there will be, as is
customary, a Memorial service
ACtlNe preparations are DolnS maze IN
every direction for hcspitable entertain
ment. To expedite matters upon the ar
rival OF the visitors It has been decided
that club women shall be known by the
wearing of a knot of blue ribbon on the
shoulder, the trains end reception COM
mittees by badge of yellow. Twenty
five young men from the military schools
Of Los Angeles will assist the hotel and
trains committee in dir Getting visiting club
" omen to their hotels, lodging and homes
of entertainment. 1t is a part of the pro-
gramme that q reception committee shall
meet the visitors at some of the outlying
stations to accompany them to Los An
eeles and club women of various Califor-
MIA towns en- route. where the trains STOP
will be at the stations with welcome of
fruit and flowers.
What is to be known as Pasadena Day
has been arranged, and an excursion will
be made to this far-famed winter resort
where the members of the Pasadena Board
of Trade and the City Council will pro-
vide carriages for driving the guests
about the city. Luncheon will be served
at the Shakespeare Club House-an Or
rate building in the style of the Anne
Hathaway cottage at Stratford-on-the-
Avon. In the afternoon a trip will be
made to Mt Lowe. En- route to Pasa-
dena a short stop will be made at the
South Pasadena Ostrich Farm. the largest

Right here the two original casts of
Gilbert and SuIlivan's opera may prove
interesting. The Japanese satire was
first produced at the Savoy Theatre, Lon
don In the fall of 1885 with tremendous
success as 1t ran continuously up to the
spring of 1888. The original English cast
included:
Mr. Scott F1sher-"The Mikado."
Mr.. A. Kenningham-''Naki-P
Mr.. Ruthland neutrality-suspicious.
Mr.. Walter Passmore-"Ko Ko."
Mr.. Luke Pish-Tush."
Miss Observation-Disclosures
Miss Florence Perry-"Yum Yum"
Miss Jessie Bond-"Petti-Sing."
Miss Emmie Owen-"Peep-Bo."
The opera was first presented in Am eri-
ca at the opening of the Hollis Street

theatre (Bostons most fashionable thea
tre) in October, 1885 Ia few weeks after
the London production), where it ran out
the season of 1SS5-S6. 1t is an interesting
fact that Kendall Weston, who puts 1T
on here with the children was in the
chorus of the Boston production, when
he was between Is and 16 years of age
and after (on the road he played 'ko-
Ko," before entering into the theatrical
profession with Booth and Barrett.
The Hollis Street production included
John Hawson as "Ko-Ko" mow dead)
Fred Solomon as 1.-The Mikado," Signor
Broccolini as Pooh BAH John Cad
walerder as 'Nanki-Poo," Geo. Olmi as
"Pish-Tush," Laura Clement as Yum
YUM Hattie DeLaro as "Petti-Sing,"
Mamie Cherbie as "Peep-Bo" and Flora
Barry as "Katisha." The Boston pro-
duction was seven week ahead of that of
New York. The cast remained the same
throughout the run, with the exception
of Richard Mansfield playing Ko-Ko in
the place of John Hawson. Mansfield
made a tremendous hit in the play and
from January up to May, Boston was at
his feet Mr.. Weston is giving the young
Juveniles all the original business used
in Boston. The summer of 1887 Mr.. Wes-
ton rehearsed one hundred children in
the opera, and 1t was successful enough
to repeat it nine different times.
The Birmingham children have taken
hold with vim, and have gotten The
music and business down to a fine point.
The "Pooh-Bah." Yum Yum" "Katisha,"
and ''Mikado'' are thoroughly proficient
in their dialogue gestures and music.
While "Ko-Ko" (who has a long and
difficult parD Naki-Poo, Pish Tush, Petit
Sing and Peep-Bo, are working diligently

remaining five rehearsals. No one unless
thoroughly acquainted with such occasion
can possibly realize all the thought and
work that has been put into these per-
formances. Entirely new and especially
appropriate scenery has been prepared,
each costume has been thought out with
care as to correctness and color.
The properties are all odd, and hard to
obtain, the light effects must be just
so, the orchestration made TO subordin-
ate itself to youthful experience and in
fact hundred little details that go to
make perfect whole. All this has kept
Mr.. Weston as busy a man as there is in

DEAD BODY FOUND.
Man Said to Belong in Washington
Dies Near Beltsville.

A colored womans cries of murder eX-
cited the residents of Betsville yesterday
about noon. The woman had found the
dead body of a man and the sight had
frightened her, and she made a vigorous
outcry. Believing she had been assaulted
number of residents of the village hur-
ried up the railroad track to her assistance.
When they ascertained what had caused
the woman's fright they took charge of the
body and sent for the coroner.
An inquest was held and DIR. C. A. Fox
made an examination of the body. The
jury found that death had resulted from
heart failure. 1t is believed the man suf-
fered an attack of epilepsy and fell dead
When found his face was in a pool of
water about four inches deep. There was
nothing found upon the body which would
assist in its identification. The dead man
was apparently about forty-five years old
and wore light gray suit, brown derby
and black shirt He weighed about 40
pounds and had a smooth face.
y short time before his body was found
the man stopped at the railroad crossing
and asked for chew of tobacco 1t is said
he also asked the colored woman who later
discovered his dead body, when he called
at her house. to make him a cup of coffee
which she did. He told her he lived in
Washington and was on lis way to Balti-
more to get work. The local police We're
notified last night of the finding of the
body, and effort is being made to locate
his friends.
In letter received by Captain Board
man this morning from Mr.. Gallant, the
acting coroner the opinion was expressed
that the deceased only about thirty
five years. old The coat worn by the
dead man was made by Eiseman Bros. of
Baltimore. In the pockets of the cloth
ing the coroner found brass crucifix, a
steel crucifX with prayer beads attached
and Catholic prayer book. The body
was taken to Bladensburg, where it is
held at Gasch's undertaking establishment.
The acting coroner requested Captain
Boardman to have the matter investigated.
The jury of inquest impaneled by the
justice of the peace consisted of A. r.
Boteley, foreman; Jacob o. Parker. Delay

Perch Fishing Never Better

Perch fishing was never better than II Is
now. Thousands of white perch have been
caught during the past month or six weeks.
Such fishing has been particularly good
along the upper Potomac between George
town and the Chain bridge There is not
much sport with rod in angling for big
perch, as it is necessary to fish in deen
water which requires the use of hand or
thrown lines. Soft crab is regarded as
about the best bait to be obtained for such
fish, although cut smelt sometime proves
enticing. Anglers who have enjoyed the
sport this season have landed as many as
hundred large perch durtng an afternoon.
