DUTIES OF AMERICAN
NAVY WHILE ABROAD
Interesting Decision Rendered by Comp
troller DISQUALIFICATION of
American Citizens Imperative.

Mr.. Robert J. Tracewell, Comptroller OF
the Treasury. yesterday rendered an in
teresting decision in which he defined the
duties of the American Navy while
abroad, as follows:
"a principal duty. however. OF the navy
is the protection CT the persons and prop
erty of American citizens abroad, and es-
pecially is this duty imperative in places
where the conditions of civil government
are such as TO imperil the safety of Amer
ican citizens temporarily residing there.
1t is the duty of officers of the navy to
extend this protection on all proper oc-
casions. and for this purpose they may
use such means as are usually employed
by naval officers in effecting such pro-
lection. The taking of such persons on
board their vessels Under conditions like
those here represented seems TO NE to
be a proper method Of discharging their
duty to protect the lives OF American citi-
zens."
The decision was occasioned by the re-
quest of the Secretary of the Navy as to
whether or not he was authorized to pay
for subsistence of American citizens re-
ceivcd on board the United States ship
Machias, as refugees. at the time OF tie
threatened and actual hostilities between
the liberal and the government forces at
Bocas del Toro, Colombia.

The program is brought to a conclusion
by the three Milettes. in an acrobatic
act of much excellence There are many
new features introduced during the turn,
and some of them arcsfar ahead of any
thing yet presented on the Chase stage
The men work with an case and grace
that are much in their favor. and they
have splendid finish to the act which.
while it is not new, is very strong, and
catches the fancy of the audience.
Manager Chase's plan of serving free
ice cream and ices during the perform
ance was very popular with yesterdays
audiences, and bids fair to be one of the
most attractive of the numerous gratui-
ties enjoyed by the Chase patrons.
Next week the Chpse stage will be oc-
cupicd by an elaborate production of

ORGANIZED TO AID
CAUSE OF IRELAND
PRESIDENT RECEIVES
A SOUVENIR OF 1900
Presented With Hunk CT Gold Ore
Thrown at Him During His
Speech at Cripple Creek.

President Roosevelt and the rock which
was thrown at him during the Presidential
campaign of 1900 at Cripple Creek met
again yesterday. Mr.. Philip Schuch. OF
Cripple Creek. a prominent mine owner.
called at the White House and presented
the rock to the President. II is good
sized chunk of gold ore which assays at
substantial figure. The President
seemed glad to get the rock Incidentally
Mr.. Schuch. as he left the White House.
related a hitherto untold phase of this
strenuous happening during the Presi-
dents brief stop and speech at Cripple
Crek.
"A man named Fowler threw this piece
of rock at Colonel Roosevelt" said Mr..
Schuch, but he intended no injury. He
had wanted to present 1t to Colonel
Roosevelt, but the crowd was SO dense
he could not get near enough to hand it
TO him. So he pitched 1t over the heads
of those in front.
"A man standing next TO Fowler inme-
diately struck him. That's the way the
trouble started and immense political
capital was made from the incident.
81 afterward bought the rock. The
President seemed glad to receive It..
This phase of the story recalls what
might have proved a serious accident to
President Harrison on an occasion when
he visited California. An enthusiastic
multitude began TO throw huge bouquets
OF flowers at him. The stems were bound
in sharp splints and one of them nearly
struck him in the eye.

Leah Lessi Plays EAST Lynne" at the
Academy.

Miss Leah Lessi and a strong cast pre-
sents a good dramatization of Mrs. Henry
Woods famous novel, East Lynne" at
the Academy of Music this week. the final
performance of which will mark the close
of the season at this popular playhouse.
The story of East Lynne" is too well
known to require any detailed mention.
Miss Lessi is beautiful young emotional
actress. and her work in the dual roles of
Lady Isabel and Nine. Vine showed
marked originality and adaptability Her
beauty, grace, naturalness, faultless at
tire. and charming Interpretation win for
her the praise of her audience almost
from the moment she appears on the
stage.
Alma Morrison distinguishes herself as
little William. The part is minor one.
but little Miss Morrison manages 10
make it conspicuous by her clever inter-
probation.
The support accorded Miss Lessi By
George S. Trimble, as Sir Francis Levison;
Lorimer Johnson, as Archibald Carlyle;
Miss Marion Stanley. as Barbara Hare;
Miss Olga Lessi, as Joyce: Miss Hattie
Neville, as Miss Cornelia Carlyle; Harry
Tansey. as Mr.. Dill: Logan Paul. as Lord
Mount Severn, and little Dorothy Cot
tew, as little Isabel Lucy, is first class.
Taken as a whole, the company gives a
fine Interpretation OF this excellent old

watson's "orientalsn at Kernan's.

One of the best all-round shows seen al
| Kcrnan's this year is presented by Wat
sons "Orientals." which made its initial
bow to local audiences yesterday and
| scored a decided hit. both for quality
! and quantity OF the bright, clean enter
| tainment furnished.
Like all of W. ]. Watson's companies.
the Oriental" organization has a pretty,
bright chorus. several clever comedians
and an olio with a number of attractive
features. One of the features of the olio
is furnished by Miss Ella Gordon who,
judging from her work. has a right to
| claim the championship among female
| bagpunchers. Her movements are grace
:ul, her work strong and her punches"
and '.jabs" from whatever position. are
always clever and well delivered. She will
meet all comers this week.
Another feature is the act given by
Miss Ella Shields, very attractive sing
er, who has a good voice and knows how
to use 1t in sentimental as well as coon
songs.
The Sisters Navette are clever with
their acrobatic dances; the Brothers
Lassard present daring and novel feats
in the acrobatic line and some of their
movements have not been duplicated here
this season. ''Micky Finn" is a little
skit built for laughing purposes, and
while Johnnie Weber and the school girls
are on. there is no end to the uproarious
fun. West and Williams are well-known
fun makers, and they scored we'll in
lot of nonsense with a number OF new
stories on the side. The Sisters Lavigne
are new comers. who promptly made
hit with their songs and clever dances.
"Krausmeyer in Ladysmith'' is a con-
glomeraticn OF fun and music upon which
the curtain rises, and in IL the company
makes good with Johnnie Weber as
the Admiral.
His work is straight comedy and de-
cidedly funny.
Miss jeanette Dupre is decided favor
ite here, and made her usual hit She
was ably assisted by Daisy Randall. Edith
Ardell, Maude Gambol. and Ella Shields
and dozen other young women.
The curtain falls on the Lady Buf-
faloes.'' a bit of nonsense considerably
better than the average finale

COL. BILL" STERRETT
SUGGESTED FOR OFFICE
President Taken With Idea, But Other
Candidates Make Appoint
nent Impossible.

Col. "Bill' Sterrett. cnce one of the
most unique, prominent, and popular
Washington newspaper correspondents.
was yesterday recommended to the
President for appointment TO the mar
shalship in the eastern district of Texas
by Representative Cooper, Of that State.
He will not be appointed to the posi-
tion. because the President has practical
iy decided to give the place to one OF
four men who have been candidates ever
since Marshal Grant was removed.
Colonel Sterrett was never a candidate
for an Office, and Mr.. Cooper was rather
perturbed over the thought that his pro-
posal might meet with objection on the
part of Colonel Sterrctt. The President
was much taken with the idea, and de-
spite the fact that Colonel Sterrett is a
Democrat, might have made the ap-
pointment had not complications existed.
