play at the Garrick will be the ap-
pearance in an important part of Miss
Dorothy GrimStJn, who is the daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Kendall Evidently
the young woman has inherited no
small part of the dramatic ability of
her famous parents, for this chance
has come to her after only a few
months actual experience on the stage.
Instead of Joining her parents COM
pany, Miss Grimston elected to make
her own way and she Joined Bourchiers
company to play the smallest of parts.
Hard work, good looks and a graceful
presence, however, helped her rapidly
up the ladder.
And now It seems that, after all. Mr..
Barrie Will call his new comedy Lit
tie Mary But with this information
comes the official announcement that
Little Mary is not the name of one
OF the characters in the play, but re-
fers to IAN influence which lies at the
root of most human troubles"-so the
thing is even more mysterious than
before. However. the author of 1.-THE
Little Minister" promises that all shall
be made known on the 21st of the
month and so Mr.. Barrie's admirers
are possessing their souls with what
patience they may. Meanwhile it can
be said that the various scenes of this
successor to 1.-THE Admirable Crichton"
are laid respectively in a London street
and at an English country house, and
that in the comedy John Hare and Ger
aid Du Maurier will have the parts Of
father and son.

energetic in condemning the present
arrangement, as they say that their
deliveries have never been so late as
at present. Several Of them have made
repeated protests to the postmaster,
but so far without any improvement
of service. As an instance, Field,
Schliek & Co. report twenty letters
from the East received at the cemmer-
cfal station on one afternoon and
stamped received at four O'Clock, none
of which were delivered at the store on
Wabasha street until the next MORN
ing. Other firms have had similar ex-
periences.
Postmaster Considers Service Good.
Postmaster McGill, when asked
about the matter, said that the service
was as good as it ever was, and he
thought the comemrciai station helped
to a quicker delivery, and referred to
the superintendent of mail delivery for
further explanation. Superintendent
Hadlich denied that the slo wdelivery
was caused by the commercial sta
ton.
eThe back stamp on the letters is not
the thing to show the delay in delivery.
All letters when they are received from
the incoming trains, are run through a
back stamping machine which stamps
them at the rate of a thousand a min
ute. After this they must be sorted.
So, If letter is received in the mail
pouch at five minutes to four, 1t is
stamped four o'clock and by five min
utes after four there may be ten thou
sand letters stamped. These must
then be sorted for the other stations in
the city at the commercial station
Those for the immediate district are
distributed from there. Those for peo-
pie west of WabaSha street are first
sent up here and delivered from here
after further sorting. OF course if
these letters are received after the man
leaves on the delivery at about fifteen
minutes before four O'Clock, the letters
are not delivered until the next morn
ing, but people can always get them by
sending after them.
About those twenty. letters mem
toned in complain, those and all
the rest of the mail on that day were
late because OF the trains being de-
layed. They did not come in until
after the man had left, but they could
have been obtained by sending for

Gently adapted Sardou's Dante" for
his distinguished fathers use, and, un-
der the title THE Lower Depth" will
be presented in London shortly. Louis
N. Parker has tcollaborated" once
more. This time, however, he is in
especially good company, no less than
that of w. w. Jacobs, the short story
writer, who has lost little if any Of the
renown brought him by Many Car
goes" several years ago. The play
which these partners have produced
has not yet been named finally, but it
is to see the light at the Adelphi some
time next month. The new piece by
.Haddon Chambers has been in Arthur
Bourchiers safe for some time, but the
success of the revival Of Mrs. Craigies
play, "The Bishops Move" has led to
its production being delayed some
what. Bourchier has now decided
however, to give it on the I'D The
piece is called 'The Golden Silence"
which more or less explains its Themes
and the cast playing it will include
Frank Mills, who used to be Mrs. Les
lie Carriers chief support" and Jes-
sic Bateman, the original heroine of
"A Message From Mars" in America.
Henry Hamilton was first heard of
in theatrical circles as the author of
the really first rate adaptation of "rThe
Three MuSketeers" which Lewis Wal
Ter produced in London and e. H.
Sothern gave in the United States. He
recently rewrote the book" of "The
School Girl" originally done for
Charles Frohman by Paul Potter. and
now he has blossomed out as the
author of an original version Of
Madame Sans Gene" which George
Edwardes will produce under the name
of 'The Duchess of DantZig" This will
be one of the Comedies with music"
as distinct from musical comedies" to
the production of which Mr.. Edwardes
bound himself some time ago. The
famous manager of the "Gaiety" ex-
plains this rather fine distinction by
pointing out that musical comedy"
consists Of various scenes written
around number of songs and is given
with full chorus, whereas the com
edy with music exists first as q plav
pure and simple, melodies being added
merely as the action requires, and is
played by comparatively small COM
pany. Thus "The Duchess of Dant-
zig" the manuscript of which. by the
way, Edwardes pronounced the best he
has ever read.
Perhaps the indigant reproaches of
the London critics will spur CLYDE
Fitch on to write as good a play as he
is suspected to be capable of writing.

MAIL SERVICE IS WORSE THAN BEFORE
Business Men Claim
Complaints Are Not Well Founded Distributing

When the commercial station of the
local postoffce was established last
winter it was promised that the deliv-
cry Of the mail would be much i'm
proved and that the complaints which
before that time were common from all
sections of the city would be answered
by a prompt delivery during the bust
ness hours of the day.
The station has now been in opera :
ton for six months, long enough at
least to judge of its effectiveness, and
instead OF the. complaints decreasing
they have Increased in frequency.
Business men say that not only has
the station not improved the service,
but In many parts Of the city 1t has OPP
Grated to make the deliveries even
more tardy than before.

west of Wabasha street are the most

Will R. Barnes, the well known New
York artist, who designed the beauti-
full costumes for king Dodo," was
born in Australia, but for ten years
has made New York his home. Mr..
Barnes is today the foremost designer
of stage costumes in this country and
there are few artists of equal ability in
this field abroad. He has not achieved
this distinction in day, however.
When he landed in San Francisco
and journeyed across the continent to
New York he expected to do little
work for the magazines, but he chief
ly intended to pay a visit to his cousin,
Vicar General Mooney, of New York.
His visit over he concluded that he
liked New York and as he soon had
more work to do than he could we'll
handle he found 1t profitable to remain.
His first theatrical work was in de-
signing posters. He showed so much

to design the costumes for his various
productions. The first was King
Dodo" and since then his creations for
"The Sultan of Sulu," 'The Prince Of
Pilsen" and Peggy From Paris" have
attracted much attention. He is now
engaged upon costume designs for Mr..
Savage's new production, 1.-THE Yankee

Sunday Closing.

Judge Pope in his efforts to
have the Sunday closing law en-
forced has practically the unani-
nous endorsement OF the people
of Roswell. If d law is on a stat
ute book, this is sufficient rea-
son for it's being enforced. Ii it
is a bad law, to enforce it is the
surest way to secure it's repeal,
and ii it is a good law its ell
forcement will strengthen it to ii
greater degree in the hearts OF
the people. The Sunday clos
ing law should be enforced for
the double reason that it is law,
and it is good law. Aside from
all religious and moral argu-
ment, the physical we'll being of
every class demands it. The
man who will not rest Que day
in seven, whatever his business,
will soon be a wreck. The COM
munlty that is not willing to
close it's business doors one day
in seven is likewise counting phys
ical, moral and social .disinteg-
ration. By consent the
Sabbath has been designated rs
this day of rest. Every bust
ness interest demands that this
day should be a day of rest. 1t
is law, it is good law, it is found
cd on right principle, and the
officers who enforceit will receive
the good will and communication
of the people.

proposition is going to be a bitter
one. There will not be as many Re-
publican recaicitrants in this con-
gress as there was in the last on
that proposition, for the reason as
stated in this correspondence not
long ago, that the sugar trust has
bought out the beet sugar interests
and that has closed h mouths of
many Republicans who otherwise
would be opposed to Cuban reciproc-
itw. There are some, however, who
still hold out against it, and they
will line up with the Democrats and
fight it unless they will allow the
Democratic amendment to go through
removing the differential from REIN
ed sugar. The Democrats are perfect
ly willing to give Cuba all the reci-
procity she asks for or give her free
trade with this country, provided
they can remove the differential from
refined sugar which will give the
consumers Of the county a chance.
This is exactly what the sugar trust
does not want. With reciprocity with
Cuba on raw sugar to the extent of
a twenty-five per cen reduction on
the present tariff, and retaining the
differentiaI on refined sugar, the trust
makes O less than eight millions
a year out of the game. That is the
milk in the cocoanut. 1t is a straight
fight between the people inc the SUI
gar trust. Watch the game.
To the intense delight of the Dem
ocratic leaders here. the Republican
administration has actually tied up
in a nice package and handed to the
Democracy another cOrking good
campaign issue in this dirty mess in
the Panama country. 1t is the be-
lief here not only among Democrats,
but among many Republicans, that

administration in order to get control

the game put up in the senate to
get the usufruct out of those Pana-
ma canal bonds has got to go through
at any cost. This Republican adj
ministration plays into their hands
and incites revolution down there
and robs that little country of a slice
senatorial cabal it's rake-off. How
are they going to get away from the
imputation that they are responsible
for this revolution If they are not,
then there must be some expert mind
readers in the navy department, for
no sOone had the first rumblings of
this trouble between Colombia and
n of it's states been waited over
the earth than this country had sev-
eral naval vessels at the proper point
