BelaSco Theater.

II was q well-entertained audience at the
Relasco Theater last night that witnessed
the first performance in this city OF MIS-.
Temples Telegram" a farce written py
Frank Wyatt. The piece might be deslg-
mated. in an explanatory way as AN expo
sition of how one lie leads to another In 90
nestle affairs, or an exhibition of catch-as-
catch-can prevarificatfon within the pre-
cincts of the home" No pretentions are
made to anything especially unique or novel
in the theme. and but little mental effort Is
required to follow the story and the cumu-
latiye farcical situations; but the piece is
rather skillfuly constructed hiled with
bright clever dialogue, and Is presented In
three acts and one scene by capable com
pany Owing to the breakage of some of
the machinery of a Ferris wheel the young
husband of a Jealous woman Is detained in
the wheel over night. His truthful eXpla-
nation of the incident is rejected as prepos-
ferrous by the wife, SO the husband resorts
to a fib. enlisting the services of a good
friend, who is an expert in the art of pre-
varication, to help him out. Several inno-
cent parties become strangely involved in
the affair and many amusing complica-
tons ensue.
The appearance of William Morris In the
role of Frank Fuller, the accommoda ting
friend, was greeted by the audience with
evidences that they still retained pleasant
memories of his work here several years
ago as the leading man with local stock
companies. George Probert was interesting
as Jack Temple, and Harry Connor created
much amusement in his clever impersona-
ton of Wigson, the butler. The role of the
jealous wife was capably performed by
Grace Reals, and Sidney Lee and Carey
Hastings met with favor in character roles.

LITTLE NAVAL RAILWAY.
Change Of Route. to Be Made
Shortly.

The route of Uncle Sans little railroad
at the Washington navy yard will have to
be changed in short WHILE officials of that
establishment say, owing to the nearness
of the completion of the Pennsylvania rail-
read tunnel In that vicinity. The tracks
Of the official railroad now enter the navy
yard at its northwest corner. The change
which will have to be made will give the
tracks entry at the lower east corner near
the river front.
This little naval railway with its putting
dinky engines finds employment mostly in
hauling the big guns that are manufactur-
ed at the naval gun factory in the yard.
The cannon are placed on powerful fiat cars
within the yard and the dnky locomotives
haul them out the main tracks of the
railroad. whence they are sent to their des-
tination. usually some seaport. to be placed
on the American war vessels.
Work on the combination building
at the navy yard is progressing favorably.
the officers OF the yard say. The founda-
ton has been completed to the point where
the construction of the brick walls will be-
gin. AS soon as the pressed brick arrive
this work will be pushed to completion, 1t
Is said.
The steel pieces for the floors. the roof,
cells and trestles are expected to reach the
yard next week.
The building will combine naval prison,
telephone headquarters, station for the fire
department of the yard and headquarters
for the watchmen and guides.

T q E I'll E A Y E R.
New National Theater.

1.-THE Toast OF the Town" is the dashing
title OF the play which Miss Viola Alien
presents this season. In 1t Miss Allen
portrays Betty Singleton. stare favor1te
of the eighteenth century. who married
a nobleman of unstable affections and
deplorable tendency to inebriety The play
differs from the usual stage picture OF an
actress career. Audiences are accustomed
to viewing the ascent through hardships
to the stars. but this piece depicts with
much genuine pathos the descent OF me-
teor to earth. In the first act Miss Allen
makes Betty Singleton quite the lovabie
and vivacious cerature that might be ex-
pected to rouse those Old-time audiences
to unstinted enthusiasm and fasclnate the
eye of a rowing young rake. The conciuo-
fng scene, in which the neglected woman,
faded both in beauty and mind, is found In
a garnet by her repentant husband Is q
most impressive contrast to the gayeties or
the first act.
1t is a somewhat cynical picture Of stage
life, and reverts to the time when Its au-
thor, Clyde Fitch, seemed likely to develop
the costume play as his distinct 1orte. II
lacks the epigrammatic sarcasm OF tne
Clyde Fitch play of later years, and us
plot does not get into motion with the
celebrity which popular interest would de-
mand in play whose interest was less
completely concentrated In the centrai
character But 1t is Betty Singleton that
the audience watches, charming in her tri-
umphs and claiming a world OF sympathy
in her distress. Betty's farewell to her au-
dience was a clever device. and Miss Allen
carried the scene with SO much spirit that
the modern playhouse seemed for the mo-
ment genuinely transformed into the AUDI
torium of the old London theater. MISS
Isabel Irving as the pert actress who sup
plants Betty In the affections of her pub
lie was comely and sufficient. Mrs. Fanny
Addison Pitt contributed character I'M
personation which was amusing without be-
Ing unduly farcical. The duke, whose do
mesticity is demoralized by his fondness
for punch. was played with good elocution-
airy emphasis by Mr.. A f. Arson. Beau
tiful stage settings contributed much to the
production which however Is most to be
esteemed for the opportunities it offers for
a varied display Of Miss Aliens exceptional
talents
