GAVE HIM A FRIGHT.
But When the Explanation Came Henry Found Out Things Were
 Not So Bad.

He was a constant visitor. He favor- ably impressed her sisters and mother by his dignified behavior and sensible conversation. He would probably have had the same gratifying effect upon her father, but as the latter was completely immersed in business he was at home very little of the time. The young man had dim recollection of being intro duced to him once and speaking word or so, but since that time had not seen him at all. However, this didn't bother him much, and his love affair came to 8 focus rapidly, says London Tit-Bits.
 When he asked the young lady to be- come his wife she referred him to her father.
 "I'll see him tomorrow, dear," he re- piled.
 No, l don't think you can," she an- swered; "he's going out of town on 8 long business trip tomorrow evening, and so will not be here when you come. z
 By love, them responded the young man, "I'll drop in on him at the office" :"
 The next day he turned up at the place of business of his idols father. He knew he was head of the concern. He made his way into the office and there confronted very busy gentleman in- deed. Asking for moment of the lat ter's time, he said:
 'I have come to ask you for your daughters hand"
 The man addressed stopped, turned round and looked at him moment, and then said:
 I'm sorry to tell you, young man, but my daughter is to be married to-mor- row"
 Without waiting for an explanation the horror-stricken suitor rushed from the building. He hailed cab and drove madly to the young lady's home.
 "What-what does II all mean?" he gasped, as soon as he saw her. Speak! What does it mean? have just seen your father at his office, and he says that you are to be married tomorrow.
 "Why. Henry" she calculated, in a tone of astonishment. my father? Why, he left for the north last night"
 A little further conversation revealed the fact that Henry had been speaking to her fathers partner.

Lafayette Opera House.

The performance of Young lobe Hoxie, :"
with Ernest Lamson, the author in the title
role. was witnessed at the Lafayette Thea
ter last night by large audience. The play
Is properly styled a rural drama, and Is of
a somewhat different sort from those usual
ly seen on the stage of the Lafayette Not
withstandng that the play is unpretentious
In it's general character the audience SEEM
ed to be entertained by the performance
and applauded the efforts of the players.
The play affords an opportunity for the
display by lobe of some splendid qualities,
in the care of his motherless sister, who
has been unhappily married, and in his
charitable treatment Of a drunken father
who harshly drives his daughter from the
country home because of her refusal to
live with a brutal hush md. There is an
air of the country about the piece and some
of the rustic characters introduced in the
action are entertaining. The efforts OF
some of the actors to arouse the symua-
thetic emotions of the audience however
are not entirely effective
Mr.. Lamson creates a large share of the
amusement in the piece with his quaint dry
humor. Miss Lydia Knott, who PLAYS the
part of Tobe's sister, is a good looking
young woman who gave creditable per-
Torrance. Miss Sarah Padden as a bois-
ferrous boarding school miss, acts with con-
siderable spontaneity. j. NJ. Byrnes and

Academy.

The western states and their people, dur
Ing that period of time when every man was
his own lawmaker and but little regard was
given to human life, have furnished the ma
terial for numerous melodramatlc produc-
tons. The state of Colorado furnished the
possibilities for Hal Reid and his four-act
drama Of western life Eat Cripple Creek.
Instead of the usual hair-raising and i'm
possible story he has woven one which may
have occurred during the early history OF
any one Of the western states where min
ing camp was located. Baby Virena, who
plays the role of Little Tatto, Is more than
the ordinary stage child who usually rec1te
their lines in parrot-like fashion. This lady
of tender years enacts her role as though she
had been a member of the profession with
long and careful training. The plot was laid
aside long enough last night in order that
she might sing Always in the Way" re-
vealing the fact that her voice was more ma
ture than appearances would indicate. OF the
principals Thomas J. Tempest was cast as
the hero who was the butt for all of George
Holt and Collin Varrey's rascality. Irene
Timmons, Bessa Dainty and Harriet Davis
shared the feminine honors.

New National Theater.

1t was the charm of personality that won
the admiring interest Of large audience at
the New National Theater last night. Inat
subtle indefinable something called tenn
permanent cast its spell over commonplace
love story and held the rapt attention OF
the many playgoers who have learned 10
hold Miss Maude Adams in an esteem that
amounts to personal affection. Given
blythe and lofty-minded girl as the princl-
pal character of a play. and Miss Adams
as the responsible player, and there Is
small need of solicitude as to atmosphere
and probability The play in which MISS
Adams Is appearing is q literary trine
which is elevated into dramatic Importance
by the manner in which 1t Is produced and
acted. The stage settings are creations OF
wonderful beauty, and Miss Adams, while
scarcely realizing the type that she repre-
sents, Is interesting and impressive. 10 tne
American mind the universal alteration TOT
the bull-fghter, which constitutes the IN.
spiration Of this rather morbid story, Is not
understood. That such a parsonage shouio
appeal strongly to certain FEMININE lmdsf
nations is logical. 1t is nationally SHOWN
In Carmen where he is the idol of the Gig
arctic factory. But Miss Adams cannot
avoid making character refined and sensl-
tive and Intellectual even though sne por-
tray girl of humble origin. Her perform
auce of Pepita is the more pleasant be-
cause it does not reflect the characteristics
which would normally belong to the role.
She is heroine of the Maude Adams type,
under great emotional stress, 1mpetuous,
but high-minded. AS she plays 1t the part
Is fine study in contrasting feminine emo
tons. But a mantilla and guitar cannot
make Spanish girl.
A mandolin and guitar orchestra provide
appropriate music, and Miss Adams sings
a Spanish song very charmingly. henry
Ainley had the only responsible role OF Sc
bastians, the bull-fighter, and played II
with eminent skill and discretion. Edgar
Selwyn was excellent as the brother whose
devotion made up for his lack of mentality,
and Mrs. Jones found the welcome that al
ways awaits her.
The pains which have evidently been
taken to make the play popularity agree
able by providing it with happy ending
should not fail to win recognition from the
public And, in addition to this, and what
is more to the purpose, it provides Miss
Adams with a part which brings constantly
into play those ever-shifting nights ana
shadows of emotion which make her so
distinct and charming an Individuality.

Asks for Exemption From Taxation

DR.. Charles w. Gallagher, president of the
National Training School for Deaconesses
and Missionaries, has written to the Com
missioners asking that Rust Hall and the
ground upon which it IS located be exempt
from taxation.
DR.. Gallagher states that Sibley Hospital
and the old training school building were
exempted from taxation several years ago,
and that Rust Hall, together with these in
situations. is the property of the Woman's
Home Missionary Society of the NJ E.
Church, and that all the institutions are
embraced in the work Of the training school,
He states that he had supposed all the
property of the society had been exempt
from taxes until several days ago. when
notice was served on him that taxes on
Rust Hall and the ground were due. DIR.
Gallagher makes the request for exemption
from taxation of the property as trustee
for the WOman's Home Missionary Society.
The amount of taxes assessed against the
property in question is stated at $SO4.O with
a penalty of per cent. The matter will
be referred to the District assessor for re-
port.

Columbia Theater.

Mr. Savage's English grand opera COM
pany, which commenced an engagement at
the Columbia Theater last night, was greet
ed by a large and fashionable audience.
The organization has not been here for
three years. and since that time there have
been many changes in the principals. In
fact Messrs Sheehan and Con are the
only two that are remembered Not only
have changes been made, but there have
been many improvements in the force, and
the aims have become more ambitious. MT.
Savage has not been content to follow In
the tradition of English opera companies
by simply using the popular standard
operas in English, but he has orancneo oul
and made original productions In English
of operas which have never befn:e been
heard in the vernacular. Last nights per
Torrance was an evidence or this. Veroi
"Othello'' has never before been heard IN
English in this city. In fact, If memory Is
correct, 1t has never but once before been
performed here, and that was In itallan.
with Tamagno in the title role, Victor
Maurel as Iago and Emma Games as Des-
demona.
That was a performance long to be re-
membered, and it is not expected that last
nights effort can be compared with those
artists. Still, Mr.. Savage's people gave an
excellent Interpretation of the opera, and
he invested the performance with all the
accessories required. There was a splendid
orchestra of nearly fifty performers. a
large and well-trained chorus that sang In
time and tune, and the feminine portion
was fair to look upon, and rich scenic
investiture. The whole was under the d.
rection of Conductor Emanuel, who han
died his forces with consummate skill. The
cast included Mr.. Sheehan as Othello; Mr..
Golf, Iago; Gertrude Rennyson, Desdemo-
ma; Miss Newman, Emilia: Mr.. Fulton,
Cassie, and Mr.. Bennett as Lodovico The
burden of the score falls upon the tenor,
baritone and soprano, and Messrs. Sheehan
and Golf and Miss Rennyson were about
equal in the matter of honors. Both the
gentlemen have been heard here before, and
both have greatly improved both as to
their singing and acting. The English
translation contains the Shakespearean
lines as much as possible, and the enuncia-
ton of the gentlemen was remarkably dis
tinct and forceful. Miss Rennyson is a
newcomer to Washington, but she proved
herself an accomplished singer and splen-
did actress. Her voice has been well
trained and she handles it with skill In
the duets with Sheehan she was dramatic
ally effective, and in the prayer in the last
act she probably did her best work Shee-
hans Othello was an excellent performance
both as to his singing and acting His
voice was in good form and rang clear and
true, and his recitatives were delivered with
force and effect Golf made Iago the ac-
complished villain that Shakespeare intend
ed and sang with dramatic intensity. The
minor roles were fairly well done, and the
entire performance deserved the enthusI-
astic applause it received.

Empire Theater.

"a Human Slave was presented at the
Empire Theater last evening before we'll
filled house. 1t is a four-act melodrama,
written by William R. Roberts, and staged
under the management Of J. M. Ward.
The story Is of the sufferings of a young
workingman and his wife, who is the
daughter of wealthy iron founder. The
heartlessness Of the man whom the girls
father made his partner in the firm before
his death is the cause of their suffering.
The scoundrel secures the entire wealth
through trickery in an endeavor to humili-
ate the young mans wife. whom he himself
loves. The steadfastness of the young
woman, however, together with the de-
termination of her husband, enable the
good element to triumph in the end. The
play abounds in melodramatic clinaxes,
and the scene in the steel mill is an I'M
usual one. The acting of w. H. Dehlman,
j. j. Hyland, Irwin r. Walton and Grace
MacMaster was such to keep the in
terest of the audience at a high pitch.
Several specialties were introduced through
out.
