New National Theater.

Mr. Robert Edeson, who, under the dree-
ton of Henry B. Harris, has established
himself in the first rank of American stars,
has in his latest play by Richard Harding
Davis a vehicle that appealed forcibly to
New York theater-goers. 1t was played 100
times at the Hudson Theater. His principal
character is a daredevil lieutenant, who.
after having seen service in Cuba and the
Philippines volunteer, joins the regular
army and Is assigned to an olt-of- the-way
station. The dull routine becomes unen-
durable. and in order to promote a little
excitement for himself and fellow officers
he makes wager that he will impersopate
a certain road agent known as THE Red
Rider" hold up the stage, which Is bringing
women visitors to the post, using no more
direful weapon than pair or shears, ana
return safely for a dance In the evening.
Unfortunately for him the real Red Rider
robs the army paymaster at about the same
time and place Suspicion points to the
young lieutenant, in fact, he is denounced
by JEFF Cahill, the post trader, who sus-
poets Ransom of dishonorable intentions
toward his daughter Mary and who has
overheard Ransom plot to rob the stage and
takes this means of running the officer. The
manner in which his innocence Is proved
and his love affair with Mary Cahfll brought
to happy conclusion reveals some ingen-
fous dramatic surprises and unusual eli
makes. Comedy of a breezy western va
riety is furnished by Ranson's brother Of
ficers. The locale is out of the ordinary and
affords exceptional opportunities for effec-
tive stage pictures. The company includes

star and new comic opera. The produc-
ton has had successful run at the Knick-

on Monday next Harry b. Smith is re-
sponsible for the libretto and Ludwig Eng
lander for the music of the new opera
"A Madcap Princess Is musical setting
for the romance of Mary Tudor and Charles
Brandon, Duke of Suffolk. 1t Is theme
on which librettist and composer might well
be expected to show the best work of
which they may be capable.
The first act, which is laid in windsor
Park. in the immediate neighborhood OF the
famous castle, shows the royal madcap
engaged first in May-day revels, and then
in the more eXacting occupation, for one OF
her rank. of making love to the man of all
men for her. By the time she is confront
ed in her apartments-this is in the second
act-by her wrathful brother Henry Wild.

King Louis of France things between her
and Brandon have progressed to the clipping
stage. 'Indescribably droll." is said to be
the plight into which Mary's impetuosity
lands the twain, is set forth in the
closing act. Henry and a body of cour-
tiers overtake them at the old inn at Bris-
toll, but after the letting off OF much
steam" on the part of the two Tudors the
happiest of all endings is eventually
reached.
The opera is credited with having many
pretty musical numbers Miss Glasers

and more than sparkling mot and
speech is put into the mouths of those on
whom the chief burden of the presentation
depends. The star is said TO have found
a vehicle calculated to accentuate the
characteristics in her work that in the past
have so warmly commended themselves to
her admirers.

Telepathy, Spirits or Coincidence

Andrew Lang in Longman's Magazine.
I may have told before, somewhere, but
may be permitted to repeat a story of a
dream in deep sleep, told me at first hand
by the wife of the dreamer. Mr.. Thomas
mot the real name) is a Welsh squire
whose place is in a rural district. One
night my Informant Mrs. Thomas was
awakened by hearing her husband talking
in his sleep. He was excitedly crying
Poor old mani Poor old mani" The lady
to amuse herself said, Poor old dear!
What is the matter with him?" Still asleep
her huband replied, He cannot get out of
the fire and smoke" What is his name?"
asked the lady. After a pause her husband
answered, John Methuen,'' after which his
comments became inarticu1ate and ceased.
Next morning the lady asked Mr. Thomas
what he had been dreaming about an old
man. John Methuen, in great danger, but
the dreamer was unconscious of having
dreamed at all. The pair left their house
for visit by rail-, before the arrival of the
newspaper. and, at the little station, found
only the evening paper of the previous day.
1t contained paragraph about the killing
of one John Methuen by a railway engine
on level crossing. Now, In this case few
will say that pure 'iuke" could give the
right name, the surname not being COM
mon. Telepathy from Methuen to Mr.
Thomas, whether at the moment of Me-
thuen's death or after his death, cannot lie
explained by personal sympathy. as Mr.
Thomas had never heard of the man In his
life. 1t would rather appear that intellectual
rays" had been disengaged by the acct
dent. and had found recipient in the deep
ly sleeping brain mind of Mr.. Thomas
perhaps twelve hours or more after the
event. He. again, would have been none
the wiser IL his sleep talking had not been
overheard and remembered. Obviously. if
these faculties of unaccountable intercom-
municatfon do exist they are of no COM
mercial value, or of next to none and the
plain man cismisses them with the inquiry
What is the use of them?" He is uncon-
sciously postuiating that everything in the
universe was created for the purpose of
being of practical service to persons like
himself. What is the use of the proper
ties of amber? They merely led to an in
quiry into electricity, which is useful
enough nowadays thanks to the Questions
suggested by certain odd. but of old quite
useless, properties of things.

KING PETER IS ANOINTED
servian RaIer Goes Through the
Ceremony of Being Touched
with the Holy OIL.

Zicha, Servia, Oct. 1O.-The anoint.
ing OF King Peter was performed here
with great ceremony Sunday morning.
At nine o'clock, amid the peaiing of
bells, the king, in full coronation
robes, proceeded to the church, where
the metropolitan innocent, attended
by an array of bishops and clergy, eel.
ebrated high mass. The king being
then formally invited to Rnointment by
the bishops, laid aside his crown, re-
gala and sword, and proceeded TO
the ikonastis, where he took up his po-
sition on a gold embroidered carpet,
and where the metropolitan, taking an
ampul,a containing the holy chrysm
in one hand and the amounting rod in
the other, touched his majesty with
the rod on the forehead, nostrils,
mouth, ears, chest and palms of the
hands, making each time the sign of
the cross and saying, the seal of the
grace of the holy grosa." The king was
then conducted to the altar. and par
took of the communion, afterwards re.
turning to the throne, where he re
sumed his royal emblems. The metro
politan then invoked Gods blessing.
and the ceremony terminated with the
singing Of an anthem, the king taking
the cross to kiss as he left the
church.
