gree, the art Of properly shading any role
she is called upon to create. In The
Lily and the Prince Miss Holland has an
opportunity to display many sides Of her
art Her performance Of the part OF An
gela' in this play has been highly com.
mended by the leading dramatic critics Of
the country, and that the people have beer
pleased with 1t is evidenced by the uni.
formly large business that Miss Holland
plays to- Manager Edward c. White has
given the play magnificent production

quoted widely In Europe as being the
best expression Of japanese ambitions
and desires that has yet been made,
says the New York Commercial Adver-
tlser. He said
I'VE desire to enter into the lists with
Russia because that would assure our
race an equality with European ma.
tons Whether you like it or not You
are Influenced by the racial type to
which we belong and by our color. You
cannot conceive the idea that we are
civilized and as powerful as yourselves
that we are your equals in the econom-
ic, military and social sphere When
the international expeditions were or
ganized during the late war In China
the command Of the different columns
was intrusted in turn to English, Ger
man, French and Italian generals,
None Of you would have been willing
to place European troops under The or
ders of a Japanese general
Yet / ask you, why not? Are we In
ferior brethren ike Darwin's gorillas
or civilized men having the same claim
TO social rights as yourselves? Well
then, we desire this war If only to con
quer our place in the world, even if i
were to bring us no material adyan
tage. If we have the misfortune Y
postpone this inevitable conflict Rnssi.
VIII prepare for it in such a manner
as to become formidable That is tht

BETTING ON PARKER.


New York, Feb. 1s.-Talk about
Judge Parker, of the court Of appeals,
as possible presidential nominee al
ready has developed betting interest
in the coming national election. The
first wager was recorded in Wall
street yesterday. The principals to
the bets were wealthy brokers. One
wager was 500 to 5000 that Judge
Parker win receive the democratic
nomination for president, and the
other was 5000 against $1,000 that If
Judge Parker is nominated he will be
elected. Bets Of this character are
unusual prior to the nominations by
either party, and may indicate heavy
wagers If Judge Parker is the candi-
date Of his party.
