THE Cowboy and the Lady"

When "The Cowboy and the Lady,
was first produced in New York, it
raised no end OF enthusiasm for its de-
lightful unconventionality, breeziness,
humor and stirring climaxes, so a rare
dramatic treat may be expected next
week when 5. Miller Kent will present
this brilliant play at Larson's theater,
Thursday, March 10.
The scenes are laid in Colorado and
the characters are Interestingly diversi-
fed. There is no lack of the comic ele-
ment. and brilliant flashes OF wit illume
tho dialogue, while the strong, dramatic
scenes hold the audience spellbound and
call for acting of high order. The ex-
cellent company that surrounds Mr..
Kent may be relied on for splendid sup
port and the clever young star was never
better suited to character than he 10

of heroism and daring not ordinarily ex-
pected to be found in such a setting, and
the rough plainsmen all swear by him,
rallying quickly to his support when he
is on trial for murder. The unique
part of this murder trial is that the
accused conducts his own defense He

his friends, but naturally it is necessary

arguments put forward. by turn humor-
Gus and dramatic, finally convince the
rest OF his innocence. No more striking
scene or succession of exciting incidents
has been seen on the stage in years, and
the element of interest is kept up until
the very last moment.

John Griffith In Macbeth. "

The bright, particular star, the all
a absorbing conversation of the dramatic
world, and the highly praised genius of
the present day is John Griffith, the
eminent tragedian, who appears here on
March 23rd, at Larson's theater. Mr..
Grifiith's facial powers are admirable,
and in all of the climaxes of the play,
he fairly carries the audience off their
feet by the intensity of his great acting.
Mr.. Griffith's Interpretation OF the part
OF Macbeth is intelligent, great and very
effective. His voice is powerful and
resonant and in the quieter passages it
is pleasure to listen to the forcble
manner in which he brings out his
lines. In brief, John Griffith is Amer
ica's greatest living tragedian.

FOR WRIT OF quo WARRANTo.
Proceedings Instituted Against Ma
tional Real Estate Securities Co.

Proceedings were instituted today in the
Supreme Court of the District of Columbia
by Augusta Tisch and nine other residents
of Philadelphia. Pa, the petitioners asking
that a writ of uuo warranto be issued di-
rected to the National Real Estate Securi-
ties Company. Incorporated. commanding it
to show cause why it should not be ousted
from the exercise of its franchise to be a
corporation of the District of Columbia.
The same petitioners today also filed a
bill on the equity side of the District Su-
preme Court for the purpose of having a
receiver appointed for the National Real
Estate Securities Company, Incorporated, to
take charge of all of its property and wind
up its affairs.
1t is explained that the respondent COM
pany was Incorporated March last under
subchapter of chapter Is of the District
code. In the third clause of the certificate
of incorpora ton, s1,00O.0O0. divided into
100000 shares of $40 each. is stated to be
the capital stock of the company. Among
other things it was set forth that the com
pany was organized Ito aid and cooperate
with those persons who may desire assist
ance in acquiring their own homes, etc.
The court is informed that May IS last
the company began to conduct its business
al 30S and 80 Walnut street, Philadelphia.
The petitioners say that they have be-
come contract holders in and creditors of
the company, and that, in view of the
we'll as about :i00 other contract holders,
will be subjected to serious, great and
irreparable loss and injury if the respond
ent is permitted to continue its business in
the mani.er 1t has been doing, and es-
pecially is such loss and injury imminent
in view of its failure to comply with the
requirements of the law in force in the
District of Columbia, under whose laws it
has been Incorporated
The petitioners charge that the respond
ent has failed to comply with section Glib
of the code, requiring at least 10 per cent
of the capital stock to be paid in before
commencing business, adding that none of
the stock has been sold, nor is any to be
sold. In disregard of the code, it is alleged
that the company has selected it's presi-
dent man who is not one of the trustees
named in the certificate of incorporation,
and that none of the persons named in the
certificate are in any wise connected with
or interested in conducting and managing
it's affairs. Other alleged derelictions of
the company are the refusal to permit an
inspection of its stock book, failure to
keep an office in this city, and inability to
perform it's contracts with the petitioners
in regard to maturity of loans.
Attorney r.. B. Behrend represents the
petitioners.

FIN ANCIAL LITIGATION
Important Discussion May Follow
Settlement Of the Panama

From The Journal Bureau, Colorado Building,
Washington. G s@ ~
Washington, Nov. 2O.-That some
kind of conservative financial legisla-
tion is inevitable In the near future
and that its enactment may be coinci-
dent with the conclusion Of negOtia-
tions with Panama for the acquisi-
ton of canal rights which will make
necessary the withdrawal of $500, 00O,-
900 from the United States treasury, is
generally, tho guardedly, conceded by
leading financiers Of both branches Of
congress. H z. :,
Opinions differ as to the extent and
character Of prospective legislation
affecting the finances Of the country,
but that it will be brought up for ii the
consideration of congress few appear
to doubt. Members of both houses
are somewhat averse to expressing
their opinions on the subject at this
time, maintaining that it is too early
in the session to indulge in predic-
tions of prospective legislation.
Representative Hill Of Connecticut
a prominent republican member Of the
committee on banking and currency
and one Of the best Informed men II
the house on finance, declared to-day
that within the next five years about
| $252,000,000 in United States bonds
would mature and that they must be

He said the better judgment of tn,
country would be unalterably opposed
to an extension, and that unless som,

This is really a pity, if it is true, but
Bede believes that too much is expected
from the humorist in public life, and that
the funny man cannot be successful lie
has serious business before him and fears
that if he ever makes a speech Of the
kind that amuses the house he will be
expected to do SO every time he says any

so. It is said that some very able men OF

them seriously. Still, if the man who was
