ORPHEUM GIVES
A CAPITAL BILL
Fun in Plenty Provided for
Playgoers by Excellent
Programme of Vaudeville
KELLY is AT HIS BEST
Senator McPhee" Allows
Him Ample Opportunity
for Display of His Talent

One Of the best bills offered by the
Orpheum in months opened yesterday
afternoon and will continue through
out the week. Every number received
deserved applause. John T. Kelly and
company are foremost in amusement.
Kelly holds the center of the stage
end his work is that of a first-class
comedian. He has a much better op-
portunity than when he appeared last
in this city with the Weber & Fields
combinations and he takes advantage
of every trick. He appears in an
original sketch, Senator McPhee, +"
and is assisted by Florence Veldran,
Hermann Lieb and Louis G. Christy.
Twelve young ladies appear in a
musical act. The Navajo Girls" The
novelty comprises instrumental solos,
vocal solos and dancing. All are ex-
cellent musicians. Reed and Shaw do
marvellous muscular work. Both are
strong men of a high order and intro
duce many new features in their line.
Wee Jeanie Fletcher appears as, the
Scottish nightingale" Her ballads
are heartily applauded and her voice is
good.
Garfield and Carlton furnish an
abundance of fun in their original
son, Hutchings, Edwards and COM
pany present THE Vaudeville Ex-
change" The scheme of the act is
complete and the combination pleases.
HALEY and Meehan open the pro-
gramme as blackface comedians with
many new specialties. Their songs and
Witticisms win them favor and they
work well together. Owing to the
length of the programme the biograph
pictures were cut out. but the show
is worth seeing and is sure to enjoy
large patronage.
Pretty Peggy entered upon its sec
ond and last week at the Grand Opera
house last night before a crowded
house. The play was we'll received by
those present Miss Jane Corcoran,
who appeared in the title role, was
warmly welcomed and scored a great
hit by the clever way in which she por-
trayed the traits of the great actress.
Sweet Glover" was played at the
California Theater last night, with Otis
B. Thayer as Jerome Holcombe and
Miss Gertrude Bondhill as Lois Hol-
combe. 1t is strong play, with ten
der sentiment and broad. old-fash-
ioned humor running close together.
Otis Thayer's role is a natural old
man of the rugged Yankee type, and
Miss Bondhill is first the charming
ingenue and afterward the woman,
strong in adherence to her wifely
vows. John Maurice. Sullivan made an
excellent Edredge Grosvenor and Clara
Tspsf1eld was good in her role of
Abigail Holcombe. Sweet Clover
will continue this week

The Washington Terminal.

Postmaster General Payne's protest
against the laying of tracks and the
operation of electric cars along 18th
street northwest just west of the Post
c~ e Department building in Washing
ton, has reached the District Commits
sicners. The Postoflice Department
officials contend that the operation OF
the cars of the Washington, Alexandria
and Mt. Vernon Railway Company
along 18th street will interfere with the
mail business of the city of Washing-
ton. The Commissioners have decided
to grant the department officials hear
ing on the subject. 1t was supposed
that the site for the terminal had been
definitely settled upon, and it IS to be
regretted that this protest has been en-
tered, as the proposed location met the
approval of the patrons OF the road as
well as the management. In thepeculiar
circumstances of the case it is obvious
that any route which might be selected
must be occasion for annoyance to some
people. The electric road has, in a
measure, replaced the steam road service
between Alexandria and Washington.
Being the only rail communication, 1t
needs station as conveniently placed
as possible and it is not desirable that
that location should be such as to cause
the patrons of the road inconvenience or
embarrassment.

River Notes.

The tugboat J. T. Selecman, own
ed bv the Columbia National Sand
Dredging Company, which lost her rud-
der in an accident down the river sew
eral DAYS ago, has been hauled out on
the marine railway for repairs. The
two-masted schooner Clara Coward Is
also undergoing repairs at the shipyard.
The sloop Daisy which has made
regular trips between Alexandria and
Landings in Piscataway creek, Md, has
been replaced by a new and larger boat,
a "hattie," built by Mr. Robert Evans
of this city. The new craft has not
been named. Capt. Combes is making
three round trips on the route with his
sailing packet. There is talk of secur-
ing vessel equipped with a gasoline
engine for the route, so that regular
trips could be made without regard to
winds or tides. Previous to the civil
war the Gypsy, a small side-wheel
steamer, ran on this route. She sank IN
1862 when in possession OF the u. >.
quartermaster at this place. She was
replaced by the Cynthia. Up to year
or two ago the Harry Loder, previously
known as the Fairy, ran on the line.

State Firemen's Convention.

The executive committee having in
charge the meeting Of the State Firemen's
Association is busily engaged with the
plans for the convention. Acceptances
have been received from the companies
at Charlestown, w. Va, Hagerstown,
Nd, Winchester, Harrisonburg, Ports,
mouth, Staunton, Newport News and
Fredericksburg. 1t is stated that fully
three thousand firemen will attend this
meeting. To follow the precedents es-
tablished by other cities the firemen sug-
gest that it is necessary that citizens
when waited upon by the finance COM
mittee, respond literally. From a bust
ness point of view this celebration will
eclipse all recent similar events. The
firemen will be in Alexandria three or
four days. The expense incurred by the
city is incident to the parade, prize
money, collation. and excursion.
A meeting of the Friendship Fire
Company was held last night at which a
committee was appointed to make ar
