way to the stage. To be candid, a
number of productions within the last
few years have looked like attempt
to inject frenzied finance into the
drama, but the enterprise in question
is the first to be built around the
reigning craze for watering stocks and
getting rich quick. William A. Brady
has accepted from Kellett Chalmers a
comedy entitled "A Case of Frenzied
Finance" Douglas Fairbanks, at
present with "Fantana," and formerly
with 1.-The Pit" will originate the
principal chraacter, that of Tom Daw-
son, an energetic bell boy with mind
full of schemes for attaining fortune
without attendant perspiration.
Joe Weber says Marie Dressler treats
him more roughly than did Fields. In
the burlesque his stock company is
now playing in New York, Weber ap-
pears in his now e-honored part of
the fat little German with the loose
trousers, long hair and bunch of
whiskers, and submits-to the delecta-
tion of the multitude-rto being thrown
around the stage by Miss Dressler, as
massive and muscular a comedienne as
ever was. This lady has worked up,
through several years of heroic en-
deaVor, to a position entitled to no
less a designation than that of 1.-The
greatest of female clowns" Her comic
acrobatics with her rich voice are one
of her many grotesque accomplish
ments. There are other light comed-
iennes, who excel her in some re-
spects, but for riotous horse play,
made really funny without being any
coarser than could be expected, La
Petite Marie" certainly takes the
cake"
Edmond Rostand, says the London

Theodore Strong in an editorial, yes
terday, leads us to believe that the
revolt in the party against the Strong
rule may be about breaking. The
Press said n whole lot OF things that
are true. AS we remarked before,
Strong is not popular with the rank

crowd is only waiting the first move,
which they believe will be successful,
to throw him over. Down this end Of

EDITORIAL COMMENT.

Golfers for June II says: Barking
against Mr.. Bonaparte as secretary
of the navy because he is independent
of local politics shows the penury to
which partisan enthusiasts are fire.
q%uentlv reduced in the matter of in
telligence. Even if the new secretary
had been a democrat in national cleo
tions, the crime of putting him in the
cabinet would have seemed to us not
naming the most heinous, but as he Is
a thorough republican to so doubl,
ridiculous to see his impartial hostil-
ity to both machines in Maryland,
forcing politicians to brand him as I;
democrat. One of the things we mos
need to learn, If " e are to have hon
est state and ity..governments In the
United States, is that mayors, alder
men, state Legislators, governors and
commissioners of public works are to
be judged not from their views Of

Orient. bot HON their honest and fit
ness for the task with which they al e
i~ntrusted. Few men of our time have
made this distinction more successful
ly than Mr. Bonaparte. He has been
member of a party without being ir-
relevantly and foolishly a partisan.
His standards of civic life are high,
he is eminent in his profession, fear
less in his acts, and of such general
intelligence that he will do some
thing to stem the ldegeneracy of the
cabinet since McKinley's death. He
agrees with the president about the
navy, although his voice is not SO rau-
cous, and altogether the selection is
one in which the country should re-
joice.

TUESDAY, JUNE 10.
Out Old Glory.

Tomorrow is flag day. June II is the
date of adopting the stars and stripes
as the emblem of this great, free re-
public of ours, and the flag should fly
from every staff in the city, as well as
throughout the country. Perth Am
boy has the name of being a city with
a large foreign population, but it is
noticeable that upon any national
holiday, evidences of patriotism are
not lacking and the flags and bunting
which greet the eye on every side
speaks volumes for those who have.leGt
their native land and found a home in
America which they have learned to
love and respect above all others. 1t
is therefore fitting that Old Glory
should b~e.unfurled tomorrow. Let her
wave in the breeze in honor OF her own
birthday.

Poisoning Dogs.

It's a pity, when an effort is being
made to kill of some of the dogs that
about Jul streets, that only
those CANNES which are pets, and are
we'll cared for, are the victims, and
the tramp dogs, the real nuisance s,
continue to run at large. 1t seems as
ii fate is against any movement to
better the CITY in this particuI ar.
Doubtless the person, if the poisoning
is done Intentionally, places the dead
ly stuff within reach of the dogs with
the BEST of intentions, at least the
dogs are a big enough nuisance. But
the very first victim of the effort to
lessen the evil, was u great pet which
was brought here with his mistress
on a visit. 1t was u valuable dog and
its death.illed the house with sorrow.
Other pet dogs died in the same man
ner. The last two victims were two
favorites of their owner and were a
nuisance to no one, yet they too must
die, while the dogs the poison was
evidently meant for, roam about as
il there was no source of danger any
where about. There seems to he but
one solution to the matter and that is
that the pet dogs, accustomed to good
living aud whose delicate digestive
organs are used to only the best of
food, fall a easy prey to the poison,
as soon as it is devoured; while the,
tramp dog, the homeless cur, whose
only feeding place is the garbage
barretl and who has learned to make
a meal out of almost anything, has a
stomach like leather and grows fat on
the staff. Such being the case, it is
time totIuit the poison scheme and
try anoter tack. The object is a
woffrf bhei but the means OF accom-
plIsk ing i Is the question:

MACEDON|ANS
WITHOUT HOPE
Horrible Scenes Daily Enacted
Under the Eyes Of the
Officials.
wsnton Slaughter Of Christians BY
Turkish Troopers Who Murder
Women and Children as Well as
tse Heads Of Households.

London.-W. A. Moore. secretary OF
the Balkan committee, who has re.
turned from a two months tour OF
Macedonia, said in an interview on
Sunday:
The wsnton slaughter OF Chris
dams In Macedonia continues under
the eyes Of Europe's representatives.
Crossing the, Bulgarian border the
nrst news to greet me was an unpar-
donable massacre in the little village
OF Konopnltz, which occurred three
days before my arrival. On visiting
the village | found the bodies OF q
man, two women, a girl and the chill
dren still unburied and laid out in the
Christian church. The women had
been shot, but saw one child which
had been crushed, probably with the
butt Of gun.
The wounded had been taken to
IBgri Palanka, an hours ride distant,
and where resides the Austrian officer
in charge OF the district.
The story OF the affair is a repeti-
|tion Of the oft.told tale. An insur.
gent band visited the village and de-
manded food on departing. The Turk
ish authorities, learning OF the visit,
dispatched body OF troops, which,
discovering no insurgents in the
place, dealt out their vengeance on
the Christians. The observation OF
the European officers seldom deters
the Mohammedans from staying
Christians. The Austrian officer at
Kounmanova district has charge OF
119 villages, where murders are OF
daily occurrence and are not noticed
by the authorities. In the Monastir
district the Italian officers sleep with
the Turkish arms In order to observe
its methods of suppressing insur-
gents This, however. only prevents
special attachments from perpetrat-
ing crime.
Mr.. Moore says the country is still
Bwarmins with Asiatic troops. which
have not been removed since the
mobilization against Bulgaria in 1903.
