LEW D~ocksTADER.

Lew Dockstader. the King of Min
s%trels, and the only black face coined
ian whose merits make an annual
Broad way, New York, engagement
profitable, begins an extended engage
ment at the Herald Square theatre on
Monday, October Sd. Mr.. Dockstsder
is by far the funni est minstrel who
ever amused an audience and this
year his songs and mQnologues are
more soreamingly funny than ever
before, If such a thing we're possible.
Although the first part Of the even
ings. entertainment shows the old
time minstrel half circle, there ave
many new and novel ~speoialties Ein-
troduced, which do net detraot at all,
however, from the songs and dances
and jokes which have from time i'm
memorial been identified with Minis
trelsy. Besides these features there
nre two big spectacular scenes which
az spectacles of beauty have nver been
eclipsed in any theatrical entertain
mentt whatsoever. An idea of the
magnitude of Lew Dockstaders Great
Minstrel company may be had when it
is learned that two sixty foot baggage
cars are required for its transporta-
ton, that the production cost $50, 900
and that it numbers over seventy peo-

dozen of the leading plays of the past
ten years. Next week one Of E. H.
Southern g greatest fayorites, "Cap-
tain Lettarbiair," will serve to still
further establish Mr.. Edwin Arden as
a favorite with the Proctor audiences.
His splendid performance in" Soldiers
of Fortune" and his excellent work
gained for him the approval and ap-
probation of the Proctor %olientel,
and in the role OF Marguerite Marr-
ington's brilliant play. which was first
produced at the Lyceum theatre, he
will have another role admirably
suited co his graceful ana finished
style.

WAR AT HAND.
japanese Nation ClamOring For
Declaration of War.
No Longer Hope of Averting Hos
tilities-DiplOmatic Relations
Severed.

London, Feb. g. Correspondents
at Toxic cable this morning that,
with the nation convinced actual
war is at best only a question OF
days, and, perhaps, a matter OF
hours, the military powers clamor
for no further delay.
They now plead with the Govern.
ment diplomats to end the suspense
and the false show of peace which
exists in diplomatic theory.
The greatest activity prevails in
military and naval circles, and the
entire nation is fast being put on a
full war footing.
Japan will undoubtedly under
take the seizure of Korea, and that
undertaking is expected to be the
first movement in the war with
Russia. The intimatiOn that Japan
broke off the negotiations without
waiting for the delivery of the Rus
sian reply is now admitted to be
correct, the Japanese officials de-
claring that they had become weary
of delay, and felt that nothing was
to be gained by prolonging the ne
gotiations. The summary action Of
Japan has occasioned 10 little sur
prise in diplomatic circles.
