TALES OF THEATRE

The Gay Lord QueX," Pinero's COM
edy. presented last evening at the Hi
nois, shows a phase of English high
life in rather unique fashion, the
whole Ringing on the proposition as
to whether rake can reform and
make himself worthy the love of
trusting girl. The play answers the
question affirmatively. but not until
QueX, the man in question, has passed
through some trying situations, in all
of which the tempter fails to conquer
him, his love for the girl he is to mar
ry having taken possession of his
finer senses. The company, headed
by Miss Sylvia Lynden and Brandon
Hurst, is splendid one. and it is
doubtful if its superior has appeared
here this season. The play was but
fairly patronized.
The big musical comedy, Mickey
Finn will be the offering at the IIl-
nois tonight. with IL large company of
metropolitan artists headed by the
kings of laughter. Perry and Leonard.
with Eddie Russell as the bad boy
Mickey. y large chorus of charming
girls headed by the chic soubrette.
Miss Lillian Perry. is special fea-
ture. The musical numbers are bright
and catchy. The play is handsomely
staged and the costumes gorgeous.
Next Sunday The Denver Express"
Will be at the Illinois. In presenting
this play Holden Bros. have outdone
all former efforts. The play is Il
strong melodrama depicting life
among the snow capped hills of Colo
RADIO, the first act showing the
rOugher side of the mountain life,
while the balance of the play takes
you to the elegant mansions Of Gil
son Payne. where the finest of Den
Yer society congregate. The dramatic
interest is strong and the comedy ele
ment is so nicely. blended that the
audience is quickly taken from shad-
ow to sunshine in Il most pleasing
way. Numerous pleasing specialties
are introduced during the action of
the play. The scenery. all specially
painted for the production, is rich
and handsome.

that jolly old gentleman whose capers
with his two miscellaneous grandsOns
have been pictured from time to time
in the Sunday newspapers. The au-
thor. II. Melville Baker, however, has
taken due license with this subject,
and the result is Il play in three acts
which fairly abounds with sparkling
dialogue, ingenious comicalities and
catchy music. The songs especially
are snappy and original and the
dances very novel and artistic. y
chorus of twenty-five beautiful girls,
with well trained voices. is a feature.
The play will appeal. of course. to the
juvenile element. but it is not in
tended for children alone. having been
designed to please people of all ages.
Foxy Grandpa will be one of the
high class attractions which William
y Brady offers to Rock Island pat
rons during the present month. The
scenery and costumes will be entirely
new for the engagement next week.

NEW YORK THINKS so. TOO,

The remarks of The Astorian the
ether day concerning the ridiculous
claims Of Puget sound, based ON the
fact that the water in that inlet Is
deep, are so strikingly echoed in the
last number of the New York Tribune
that the article in that paper is here
quoted:
.Cable reports say that Bourke Cock
ran in some of his eloquent addresses
in Erin has been predicting that Ire
land win achieve marvellous gains IN
future generations. because the huge
transatlantic steamships OF later years
bigger vessels Shan any known in
these tirnes--must perforce use har-
bors on the western coast of ireland.
II Mr.. Cockran's supposed utterances
have been correctly reported. is this
not somewhat airy and unsubstantial
vision? Great vessels ply to and from
great ceaters of commencement else
where
What lends additional force to the
Tribune's contention is that II is made
incidentally, as one might use any 9TH
er axiom to enforce a statement.

AFFECTS ENGINEERS AND PILOTS
Many Astorians win be interested to
learn that recent decision Of the New
York board of steamboat inspectors is
TO the effect that masters, pilots and
marine engineers holding United
States licenses, may not by concerted
action, force a readjustment of their
wages or hours of work"
The decision was rendered in the case
of Joseph Cornell. who left his engine
on the tug yigilant because the de-
mands of the Marine Engineers Bene-
fetal association regarding wages were
not complied with by the employers.
Cornell's license was withdrawn by the
board. Commenting on the case the
New York Tribune says:
I'm effect, the inspectors declare that
a master pilot or marine engineer may
not use the exclusive privileges given
him by his license to enforce the pay
ment of certain wages and change OF
hours. whether the demands be rea-
sonable or unreasonable. In this in
stance the members of the association
were not permitted to treat with their
employers as individuals. 1t Is under
stood that the pilots of this port and
the pilots and engineers Of the other
parts of the Atlantic seaboard were
watching the effect of the strike here
with the view of carrying out the same
tactics elsewhere if they proved sue
cessful."

TESTED THE BUILDINGS.

The buildings at Fort Columbia were
tested yesterday by the firing Of the
guns, preparatory to the troops being
moved in from Fort Candy. Captain
Goodale went over from Astoria to at
tend the trial, and everything was
found to be satisfactory. 1t was
thought possible that the firing Of the
guns might affect the buildings so that
they would be unsuitable places for
the soldiers quarters.

who was paid $1,000 in compromise
of his demand, for $4,000, was never
injured there, had no money coming,
and is now in Jail in Astoria for at
