Theatrical Notes

Simple Simon Simple" coming to
the Opera House tonight. Is not a cut
and dried musical comedy with a set
OF stereotyped characters, but a mod
ern story set to music, treated i'm a
coherent and consistent manner and
.enlivened with comedy that is not
morse play. One does not see a band
box tenor dressed i'm white hannels
and sporting a yachting cap, an in
sipid character at best but instead
a young, swarthy Italian fruit ven
der with a voice of liquid gold. who
sings high like bird and never
once steps out of the role. Dress
dialect and mannerisms are perfect
and Horace Wright, who essays the
part, has created a perfect furore by
virtue of his splendid performances.
The natural deductions worked out
in Way Down East" coming to the
Opera House tomorrow afternoon and
night together with the human inter-
est of the play, appeals to all classes
high and low, young and old. city
folk and country folk. 1t is a plain
story Of plain people set before them.
The blase city man is taken back to
the time when with stone bruised feet
he chased the butterfly through the
meadow. Withal the story of the
play points to moral that is appl-
cable to all mankind. This moral is
not hung out like sign-post. but is
unconsciously absorbed. Way Down
East is a clean play and a wholesome
one. The clergy have not hesitated
to endorse it,

together unexpected in view of his
request some time ago to be allowed

fairs with Secretary Taft. Members of
the commission did not hesitate to say
that his resignation would greatly en-
barrass the commission in its work
and might necessitate the postpone

mission in September
Secretary Taft is stated to have been
really the only person who had an
inkling of Mr. Wallace's intentions.
That the secretary held strong views
on the subject was known to several

there may yet be some interesting de-
yelOpments before the official resigna-
lion is announced by the government.
