The Decision of Paris.

Because Q theatrical manager sought to emulate the example of the gentle man responsible for the Troy unpleas- anness and award the palm for beau ty, or rather withhold it, he has been made the defendant in a suit for dam ages The plaintiff is a show girl whose face and figure are her fortune. She contends, and there would seem to be some justice in the contention. that the theatrical managers decision that she is not beautiful, at least not beautiful enough to be included among the show girls of his company. will in jure her in a business; way; and she declares that she win ask jury to make him pay her $1O,OOO as compen- sation.
 When Paris made his famous deci- sion, the Olympian lady whom he had offended was not able to go to court about it. She devised, a nice little scheme for revenge, however, and doubtless later in life the impulsive Trojan had reason to repent rushing in where angels certainly would have feared to tread. And it is probable that the theatrical manager will also repent in time. For Paris decisions are invariably fraught with fatal con sequences; and as they settle nothing except the fate of him who has made one, they are useless as well as expen- sive.
 As somebody has very truthfully ob- served, beauty is in the eye of the be- holder. The young woman who the theatrical manager has declared does not handsome much" may appeal to jury with other standards. More over, while it is necessary to be ex- perienced in order to judge fairly, it is not unlikely that the theatrical. managers position makes an honest judgment impossible. The general public finds the show girl ever young and beautiful and fair. Can one have spent his life in choosing these without have become supercriticaI2 We fancy not, and therefore we think the man ager's position Q perilous one. Unless he settles out Of court some future jury, gazing from the maid to the manager and back again to the maid, will undoubtedly initiate the famous Gilbert jury and declare solemnly. 'We never had a notion that a man could be so base" And then it will file out and bring back verdict for the full

 -Russia's most brilliant statesman is of humble origin. This of course ac- counts, on the one hand, for the hos tility which he invariably encounters from the aristocracy, and on the oth CT hand. for his ready sympathy with the common people. According to MT White. de Witte was a railroad station attracted the attention of the govern ment. A train carrying the emperor. Alexander IT., and his family was wrecked at Borki. and many of the at tendants were killed. It was generally believed that the wreck was the re- suit of Nihilist plot. All railway of ficials in the vicinity were imprison- ed and among them was de Witte. During the examinations which ensued ''he showed himself so clear-headed and straightforward that he attracted attention, was given a subordinate po- sition in the finance ministry, and fin ally advanced to the first place in it"
 It should not be supposed that de Witte has any sympathy with the rev olutfonary party of violence. He does not dream of a Russian republic He believes, rather, that the state should own everything and in pursuance of his policy the government has acquir- ed all the railroads in the empire. But the moderate demands of the people for a voice in the government have his approval, and like Mirsky. he hopes to see a gradual and peaceful evolution to a constitutional monarchy He is friendly tc the Jews He is better fitted than any other man in Russia to hold in check the rising tide of revolution. The great danger is that the revolutionary doctrines Of the Nj hilists will take such a hold on the masses that the friendly counsels of such men as de witte and Mirsl1y will go unheeded, and after that point-the deluge.

ADJUSTMENTS


 Whenever theatrical company. who make one play speciality. a>vertIse to play two nights in 8 city the size of Phoenix, one can thus safely rely upon the attraction to be one of merit as they would not dare to play a second night unless their first nights performance was satisfactory.
 If judged from past performances, why Women Sin" by Will C. Mur- phey, the attraction at the Hardwick for two nights, next Wednesday and Thursday, Jan. and 5. may safely be counted among the most triumphant meIo- dramatic successes of the times. During it's record-making career this play has steadily added to a long list of ardent admirers who seem to take special delight in finding so much di yersified entertainment crowded into a performance of popular color. There is scarcely an instance of a plays pros perity so filled with genuine reward for the authors fine endeavors and the good sense of a liberal management, as in the case of Why Women Sin, which has so emphatically proven it's honest worth.
 In presenting this formidable scenic production each successive season, all the pains possible have been indulged in so as to conform with the most ex- exacting demands of theater patrons who cordially approve of the sort of progression that lends a new charm and wide interest
 There are so many invigcrating scenes and incidents contained in this agreeable stage offering that it would be extremely difficult to point out any one in particular which is entitled to special favor.
