EMPIRE OF SAHARA.
Lebaudy's Request to Roosevelt For
 Ex-Rough Riders.

LONDON, Jan. 19.-The development of Jacques Lebaudy's empire of Saha- ra' is about to take turn which will be of some interest. to the United States. M. Lebaudy has decided to draw the officers and noncommissioned officers for two battalions of imperial life guards from Great Britain and the United States, and in pursuance of this idea he will submit to President Roose- welt an invitation to name any officers of his former Rough Riders whom he can personally recommend for commis gionS
 Colonel George Gouraud, Thomas A. Edison's representative in England for many years, who as governor general of Sahara is organizing a military es- tablishment for M. Lebaudy, states: : 'sThe invitation to recommend officers will be submitted to President Roose- welt in few days. Whether the presi- dent will consider it proper to accept the invitation or not, the. emperor wish es to pay him this compliment.
 '.The imperial life guards will con sist of two battalions. The. first will be officered exclusively by Americans, preferably former Rough Riders, and the second by retired officers and non- commissioned officers of the Seven teenth English lancers and the royal horse artillery. These battalions will constitute the emperor's personal body guard The troopers will be composed of Arabs and native saharans, who are among the finest riders in the world.
 'It'is proposed besides the formation of the battalions. of life guards to or ganiZe a Sahara constabulary which will police the country somewhat along the lines of the Canadian Northwest mounted police This constabuiary will be composed wholly of American negroes, but whether under white or colored officers has not yet been de cided. The management of the entire force will be in the hands of a retired British army officer who has already been selected-a man with an unsur- passed war record.
 Extensive farm lands will be allo- cated on which ex-oficers and the men of the constabulary can obtain home stead rights if they choose at the end of the period of enlistment.
 "We purpose also to encourage the emigration of American negroes to the new empire, selecting only approv. ed settlers who will be chosen by thor I oughly reliable agents scattered l throughout the United States. Person ally believe this scheme will secure the support of the American negroes tc an extent which no other emigration plan has ever yet attained, because il will not involve the taking of them te a purely negro colony, but will settle them in a new and prosperous lan6 with a mixed white and black popula tion."

VIRGINIA HARMED.

It was not very large audience
 that was present at Polls theater last evening, but it was most apprecla- i've one. Virginia Harmed and a very
 evenly balanced company were here presenting for the first time in this city the comedy, ''The Light That Lies in Woman's Eyes" It is new to the theatrical world, having been pro duced not over week and last night's x presentation could really be classed as the first before an audience as tile others were really rehearsals. The comedy was written by B. H. Sothern, husband of Virginia Harmed, and there are very many things that are really clever in the composition. Nat urally in all first productions there are little points with which the prun- ing knife will have to do, but as a whole the conception, composition and general makeup of the comedy was original and well executed. Miss Harmed is given splendid opportuni- ties to display her powers as an ac- tress and her ability to enact a char acter role with ease and grace. AS Lady Lorna Leinster. pretty, rich and talented and blessed or afflicted with a sweet Irish brogue. as the mood pos sessed her, she certainly pleased all or the great majority of all who were in atterdance. Whether in the char
 acter of the coy and anxious lover the angry and disappointed woman 1 who believes she has been sighted the sympathetic friend. or the tragic and at times humorous reciter oi scenes from "As You Like It, she was at all times pleasing. In fact so well admired was her work an6 l that Of her company that curtain calls were frequent.
 Miss Harmed has with her very capable company. but particularly is ] she blessed in very excellent lead
 ing man, William Courtnay, and tha
 charming little actress, Margaret Gordon. There was scarcely flaw to be found in any of the characters for that matter and the production af
 ter a little more smoothing of the rough edres ought to make a go 1T New York when if reaches there. Ii has the advantage also of beins equipped with a very proper an6 tasteful stage dressing
