High Attitudes for Lung Trouble.
DR.. Robert NJ. Levy, Of Denver, Col,
provoked an interesting discussion
by reading a paper dealing with the
question of the advisability of sending
patients to high attitudes for treatment
OF tuberculosis. large number of the
physicians took part in the discussion.
tuberculosis was declared to be a
disease of the utmost Importance TO the
specialists, and there was considerable
difference of opinion among those par
in the discussion as to the
best method of treatment. The major |
ity, however. seemed to favor sending |
the patient to place OF high /
altitude and pure air. where nature |
could assist in restoring health. in
preference to administering treatment in |
the locality where the disease was con-

WHITE HOUSE VISITORS.
Mr. Mudd Urges A. L. Boiling for Sub
treasurer at Baltimore.

Representative Mudd of Maryland
was an early caller at the White
House yesterday. he urged the ap-
pointment of Mr.. A. L. Boiling to
the United States subtreasurership a,
Baltimore. As all the other Maryland
appointments were made last week. the
interest OF that State is now centered in
the filling OF this Office The delegation
in Congress is not unit OF the qucs-
tion of the prospective incumbent, and
Sir Mudd's visit was merely to call at
tention TO the qualifications possessed
by his candidate and the latter's vol

smoothly and they reflect much credit
upon the stage manager. ]. X. Adams.
The presence of such noted comic
opera stars as Pauline Hall and William
Broderick in the cast no doubt served
TO attract many persons to the theater,
but. good as they are acknowledged to
be in their lines. the supporting COM
pany is really excellent under all the
circumstances.
"Ermnie' has been sung so often
and been heard here so many times that
1t was inevitable comparisons should be
drawn. but the performance given last
night will not suffer greatly when com
pared with previous productions. 1t IS
certainly the best summer opera com
pany that has appeared locally in many
seasons. and though there may be some
who are hypercritical and will contend
that the company does not equal others
that have presented the same opera in
the past. there can be no gainsaying
that there have rarely been such good
and complete performances at popular
prices as those that were given yester-
day.
So far as the opera is concerned. il is
useless to say anything about Err
mimic" Everybody who cares for music
has at some time or another heard
Jacobowsky's beautiful opera II was last
given locally few seasons ago when
Francis Wilson and Pauline Hall ap-
peared in an elaborate revival. playing
their original roles. Mr.. Wilson is not
with the company presenting the opera

pears in her original role of "Erminie."

sidered as the living impersonation Of
Jacobowsky's heroine. or her rendition !
of the role. 1t would be useless to dwell |
upon it. There was apparent last even
ing no deterioration In her work of over
n dozen years ago. She retains her
good voice and personal charm. and
sings the popular Lullaby" and other
songs with as much sweetness as she
did of yorc.

REVOLUTION AT B0CAS
DEL T0R0 SH0RT-LIVED
Commander McRae, of the Machias, Re-
ports From Colon That Every
thing Is Quiet.

A brief message received at the Navy
Department yesterday afternoon from
Commander Henry McRae. of the gun
boat Machias. contained information that
leads the naval authorities to believe
that the revolutionary disturbances are
over at Docas del Toro. Colombia. where
there are large American interests. The
dispatch. which wGs dated at Colon. said;
Machias arrived. Affairs at Bocas del
Toro settled
Commander McRae was sent to Bocas
del Toro to protect American and Ger
man interests, and the fact that he has
left there is regarded as additional evil
dence that further disturbances are not
feared.

TWO RETICENT SENATORS.
They Have Brief Conferences With the
President and Hurry Away.

President pro TEN. Frye of the Senate
was at the White House yesterday, and
saw the President for a short time. Just
before luncheon, presumably upon the
pending Cuban and isthmian legislation.
The veteran Senator from Maine was
very reticent about his visit. and imme-
diately hurried back to the Capitol
Senator Beveridge called later in the
afternoon and made a brief stay. The
Indianan said with a smile that there
was no politics in his visit.

C0ALING STATION ON
COAST OF LIBERIA
Cruiser San Francisco Said to Have al
Unavowed Mission Besides Mere
Showing of the Flag.

The cruiser San Francisco is engaged
in a cruise along the west coast of
Africa, touching at Cape Verde Islands
and going - far west as Monrovia,
Liberia. While at the department her
purpose is said TO be the exhibition Of
the United States flag in quarter of
the globe seldom visited, there seems
to be good reasons to believe that Capt
Asa Walker, her commander. has also
been instructed to investigate the coast
with view to the possible establish
ment of coaling station.

Mr.. Smiths Many Encores.

One member of the company who
made particularly good impression
was Joseph Smith, whose fine voice in
his solo in the second act was heard to
good advantage. One OF the pleasing
qualities about Mr.. Smiths singing is
his distinct enunciation. He was Obliged
to rcs9ond to half a dozen enccres.
The other menters OF the cast IN
clude Robert Broderick, a brother Of
William. who plays the part of the mar
quis. father of Erminie. in good style;
j. X. Adams, as the Chevalier de Braba-
zen: Walter Blackburn. as Simon. the
waiter: Jessie Bra dbury as the leader
Of the soldiers: Mabel Van VIE. who
made her debut last night or the stage
and did well: Della Stacey, in the char
acter Of Javote. and Alice Hosmer as
Prln .ess de Gramcenoau. Miss Hosmer
was perfectly at home in the comical
role of the princess. and proved an ad-
mirable foil to Mr.. Frear as Caddy.
The chorus will doubtless be heard to
better advantage after the members
have sung together for a time. but II
did very we'll last evening. all things
considered. II Is not notable in the
matter of looks. but there were some
very fair voices heard in It's ranks.
Altogether, the season of summer
opera which Mr.. Chase has begun will
doubtless prove a pleasing diversion to
his regular policy of vaudeville. and
crowded houses will likely be the rule.
The Washington times., 1902-06-03
William Broderick's Success.

The real hit OF the opera is made by
William Broderick in his old part OF
Ravennes. His fine robust voice Just
suits the score. and his ability as an
actor is given free rein TO display itelt.
Mr.. Broderick. it will be remembered,
was seen here last winter in the cast
of The TOreador," and. good as he was
in that. he appears to better advantage
in the role OF the pseudo nobleman.
Fred Frear. who was the principal
comedian of thu. Castle Square Opera
Company n season or two ago. plays
Francis Wilson's old part of Cadeaux.
and il must be said in truth that he
does very well. He and Broderick work
well together. and there were many
hearty laughs at their comedy efforts
last night. Perhaps Mr. Frcar may fail
somewhat vocally, but it is not to be ex-
pected that comic opera comedian
should possess a grand opera voice. Mr.
Frear does very we'll in every other re-
sDect. and will no doubt become n ia
voritc with the Chase audiences.

THE CHINESE PROBLEM.

Governor Taft Thinks immigration
 To Philippines Should He Stopped.
 WASHINGTON, March Ex-Governor Taft was before the senate committee on immigration yesterday and gave his views on the subject of Chinese imn1i- grafton to the Philippine Islands. He said the general conviction of the com mission was that the Chinese ought not to be allowed to enter the islands. He said there were 5O,OO0 Chinese in Manila and, in his judgment, not more than 150,O00 in the whole archipelago.
 Governor Taft said the Filipino-Chi- nese half breeds should not be kept out of the United States, "because they are Filipinos, pure and simple"
 The best way for congress to meet this problem, said Governor Taft, is to establish its policy with respect to the United States and then treat the Phil ippine Islands, so far as the introduc- ton of Chinese into the United States is concerned, as if it were foreign country and then to give the comnis- sion or the legislative body in the is- lands some power and authority in it's discretion and to admit skilled labor.

1.-THE COLLEEN BAWN. ]"
St. Patrick's Day to Be Fittingly Gel
 ebrated by Above Production.

St. Patricks Day to Be Fittingly Gel
 ebrated by Above Production.
 All the tickets that have been issued or sold for the drama ''The Colleen Bawn,' which Is to be presented at Polls theater on St. Patrick's night, will be recalled and new ones Issued in their place. The reason for this IS that the place of the production has been changed from the City Hall to Poli's theater and also because of re- served seats going to be placed on sale the Friday before the production. All those holding tickets can make an even exchange with the party who sold them the tickets and there will be no mistakes made when the tick cts are presented at the doors. The demand for tickets is increasing every day and the same rule holds good in Polis theater that was to have been enforced had the play been produced In City hall Only the seating capac- ity of the house will be sold, and if all the tickets are sold out before the night of the performance, those desir- Ing to see the play will be refused.
 Aside from the drama itself there will be other features that will at tract your attention and not the least of these will be songs from the Sa- cred Heart quartette. This quartette has reputation in musical circles of presenting choice numbers whenever it has appeared, and on this occasion the members who compose it are go- ing to outdo themselves. Mrs Lucien Wolff will be the accompanist for this part of the entertainment. The songs of Miss Cecilia Moriarty, who will play the part of .'The Colleen Bawn," will also be a prominent feature.
 Her selections have already been made, and Miss Moriarty Is considered one of the sweetest of the younger soprano singers of this city. She will
 be accompanied by Miss Elizabeth Lawlor. Bergen's orchestra has been engaged to furnish the music during the play and between the acts. and as Leader Bergen is an old hand at fur n1shing music at this kind of an en- rertainnnent there will be no doubt of that part of the performance being well done.
 That the drama itself will be staged in excellent manner Is certain thing, because Stage Manager Jack Robinson has yet to make one failure In any event that has been produced in Polls theater. He and his corps of assist ants have always worked as hard If not harder in the interest of amateur productions, as they do Tn any profes- sional event in the house. The mem- bers of the cast are working night and day to make the whole entertainment a decided success, and if you want to see good Irish drama, and If you want to enjoy one night of pleasure during the lenten season, here is the opportunity presented to you. and all you are asked to contribute Is p, B or 50 cents.

This, with the guarantee that all the original company and elaborate production of the long New York en- gagement at the Herald Square thea ter.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.


 Whether it is the Prince Henry pie lures. or the remarkably fine comedy bill accompanying, that is drawing such large audiences at the Jacques, would be hard to tell; but certain it is that this promises to be the banner week in the matter of attendance. And on all sides is heard unlimited praise of the show Mir Linton and Miss Me Intyre had not appeared in Waterbury before this week, but very certain it is that there will be very lively de sire for them to come again Prob ably no vaudeville entertainers have ever scored a more emphatic success. Miss Mcintyre is q remarkably hand some young lady, with large dreamy eyes and a faculty for throwing them with bewitching coquetry at the audi ence. and she has q voice that is as ripplingly sweet as binds. It is q delight to see her act and hear her sing. and In the funny sketch which she plays in conjunction with Mir Lin ton she has the audience at all times convulsed with laughter and interest. And the other acts are of a piece with this, making the show, in the view of the public generally, one of the com nlntest vaudeville exhibitions that Manager Poli has given us. Prices are 10c and 20c for the matinees. all Indies 10c: evening prices for all 10c, 20c and 30c
