At Tho Crawford.

The presentation Of ellis Absent
Boy" by Harry Corson Clarke last
night at the Crawford was ono Of the
most delightful features Of tho carni-
val, and tho large audience which
attended were more than pleased
with the performance. The play
was q comedy from beginning to end
and il there was one person in the
audience who did not enjoy a hearty
laugh it was certainly no fault Of
Mr.. Clarke aud his company. for the
audience was kept in roars Of laugh
ter and showed their appreciation by
tremendous applause. Mr.. Harry
Corson Clarke is no stranger here,
having appeared here the last two
seasons aud each time winning many
friends. He is comedian of no
mean ability, His work in the part
OF Mr.. Pennie proved his right to
rank among tho foremost actors Of
the day. Joseph Lehman as Mr.. Bur
nay, WAS excellent. Miss Margaret
Owen, who possesses pretty stngs
presence, and who knows much of
the art Of acting, made decided hit
in delineating Mrs. Pennie. Miss
Hyrs Kstchsm, as Nita, to say the
least divided honors with the best OF
the cast. The remainder OF tho COM
pany were splendid in their respec-
tive parts. As whole this was one
Of the most pleasing attractions Of
the most pleasing attractions OF the
season. The costumes were hand
some, the scenery pretty and the
play and play ers would undoubtedly
be hard to improve upon. Surely
there was nothing more to be der r-
cd, for it would be safe to say that {
more satisfied audience were nsvei
turned away from the theatre.

Washington, JAM 6.-Senator Bard
of California antagonized the provis-
ion of the statehood bill uniting Ari-
zona and New Mexico. saying that
the people of those territories have
never signified a desire for such dis
position of their claims to statehood
and that all conditions are unfavora-
BILE to it. He gave his assent to the
proposition to consolidate Oklahoma
and Indian Territory. During the
course of Senator Bard's speech he
was interrupted by Senator rillman,
who said that he wanted to make an
appeal for white supremacy in Arizo-
ma. To unite the two territories of
Arizona and New Mexico, ne said
would be like joining Florida and
Cuba. and would subject the white
people of Arizona to the domination
of Mexican ''greasers" which he op-
posed.

adds. should consult with representa-
tives of the land as his predecessors
did before the days of John the Ter
rible. while the papers abroad now
say that peace could be concluded
without dishonor. if peace were now
made they would declare it disgrace
full" What the people want ne (Sou-
vorin) cannot affirm, but the idea of
ending the war at this juncture is alb
horrent to him, and he believes to
the Russian people. "If the inscrip
tions on the banners of the demonstra
tors and the action of some of the
Zemstvos in favor of peace repre-
sents the voice of the nation, it
would mean the collapse of Russian
aspirations and the farewell to her
dreams of an open road to the sea.
and the creation of a yellow peril in
Asia which would threaten civiliza-
tion and mean Russia's retirement
into her Muscovite shell and disap-
pearance from the stage of this great
power" "The army" he further says,
''holds the honor and fate of Russia
in its hands," He then reviews the
sorrowful record of bitter humilia
tions suffered thus far. and the chan
ces for the future. In conclusion he
declares that the government must
decide and weigh we'll the conse-
quences. but the editor insists that
the people must be united as "disun-
ion. riots and revolution mean the
downfall of the fatherland."

and declared that although the senate

in session.
