SHERIFF BRINGS IN
BUNCH OF HOBOES

Sheriff Denholm and Deputy Doten re-
turned last night from Sumner with seven
men of doubtful occupation who had been
arrested by Marshal Tuell and sentenced
to ten days in the county jail by Justice
Thomson. 1t is said that the men have
been hanging around Sumner for several
days, sleeping in the neighboring barns
at night, if they slept at night. and have
kept the people in the outskirts of the
town in state of terror. Their entire
possessions consisted of a frying pan and
can. To get food they took the census of
various chicken coops. leaving one inhab-
liant short after each visit, and break into
cellars and winter gardens. Though none
of them carried a gun, it is said that they
would line up across the road on the ap-
proach of a stranger and intimidate him
into giving them money. Not until they
showed a disposition to do some bodily
harm were they molested. They gave the
following names: John Van Horn. Ed

Lafayette Square Opera House.

On the same stage where the original
production was given several years ago
THE Bonnie Brier Bush is holding forth
as the attraction the current week at the
Lafayette Square Opera House. This sue
cessful dramatiZation from several of the
most popular stories of Ian MacLaren is
closely related in sentiment to plays of
THE Old Homestead and Shore Acres"
class, and bids fair to continue as a most
pleasing entertainment for theater-goers
for an indefinite period The veteran ac-
tor, j. H. Stoddart. heads an exceptionally
strong company, the members of which
display talent sufficiently varied to suit
reasonable demands. A Scotch quartet last
evening rendered number of selections in
manner that was rewarded by determined
encores, and a bag-piper in sure-enough
kilties. and bearing the stage name
Sandy" was also received with favor. Mr.
Stoddart is cast as Lachlan Campbell a
Scotch elder, who forces his love for his
only daughter to be outranked by a narrow

fraught with pathos to the end that many

comedy. The principal funmaker is Reuben
Fax, who has the character of Archibald
Mckittrick, postman He is ably assisted
by several others, not the least worthy of
whom are couple of children, Master Will

Chase's Theater.

1t frequently happens that the so-called
headline feature of a vaudeville bill once
1t has served it's purpose of attracting
auditors sinks into comparative insignifi-
canoe at the actual performance This is
far from being the case with the program
at Chase's this week, when Mr.. Charles
Hawtrey appears in farce and fully main
tains the precedence accorded him by the
black type in the announcements. His lit
tie play, Time is Money is a trifie built
something on the lines of Lend Me Five
Shillings" Despite its absurdities it gives
Mr.. Hawtrey abundant opportunities for
quiet comedy. In working out the picture
of a young Englishman who is trying to
propose marriage despite the duns of a
cabman waiting outside, Mr.. Hawtrey re-
sorts to methods much broader than those
employed on the legitimate stage; yet his
personality is so typical of repose that he
succeeded in maintaining the spirit of genu-
inc comedy throughout a series of glaring
but humorous improbabilties. Mr. Haw-
trey is assisted by Miss Dorothy Hammond
as wealthy English widow and Miss Mona
Harrison as a self-assertive maid
Other features of the bill are contributed
by the three Rio brothers in a remarka Bile

Columbia Theater.

The touch of San DOMINICAN life brought
to Washington last night by 1.-The Yankee
Consul created the impression that this
little revolutionary republic of the south
ern seas Is one of the most interesting
fields yet invaded by the makers of comic
opera. The gayest dark-eyed chorus the
Columbia has known for a long while
grouped themselves about in graceful stage
pictures and entered vivaciously into the
action OF the opera whenever the occasion
gave warrant. This willing, wonderfully
trained and fiufr-adorned' chorus was but
one OF number of striking features in
evenings entertainment of exceptional
quality. Raymond Hitchcock, yelIow-top-
ped and sad-eyed, lOlled through two 81
estas of comedy which appealed to every
one alike In an audience that left not
chair vacant. That comedians are some-
times born and not always made is eXem-
plif1ed in the laugh-compeling ways of the
well-lked Hitchcock. There is the nre-
sistible appeal of natural propensities tor
fun in all that he does The languid ease
of his work gives thought of the joke
factory. In personality as well oppor-
tunfty he is strongly favored. The nature
qualities in his fun-makng prevented
surprise when, appearing in response to
demand for a speech, he was himself and
not the buffoon of the librettist's making.
In a sincere little talk Mr.. Hitchcock re-
called the days when he was with the Cas-
Tie square Company at the Columbia for
an extended summer engagement. And
with those days he conjured up many
pleasant memories among his hearers,
whose applause rang true when he bowed
his final Acknowledgements. A detail of the
many striking things in THE Yankee Con-
SUI would but rob them of some of their
attractive newness to the host of playgoers
who are still to see the piece. The music
has rhythmic swing to it from the very
first and let's down at no stage of the two
acts. Many of the songs contributing to
the success of this first joint effort OF
Henry NJ. Blossom jr., and Alfred q.
Robyn had preceded the opera by many
months But heard amid their original sur
roundingS they We're as enthusiastically en-
joyed as though the strains had been en-
tirely unfamiliar. The company is one OF
pleasing personalities throughout. William
Danforth, Albert Parr, Joseph Radcliffe and
j. +. Hazard are but a few of the mascu-
line contingent. The feminine array is one
of unusual attra ctiVeneSS Flora ZabeIIe,
as trim and dainty ever, dances and
sings with native enthusiasm. Rose Botti
though less widely known, proved an effec-
tive playing mate for Miss Isabelle. Eva
Davenport. of the few women come
dams of light opera, revivitied an already
enviable reputation. The Yankee Consul
picks the auditor up at the very beginning
and carries him through the performance
on plane of even merit and never-Iagging
interest
