SPACE IN CHURCH LIMITED.
Thousands May Attend Services at the
MauSoleum, However.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, March
20.-The problem of providing accom-
modations in the Memorial Church for
the great number of persons who will
wish to attend the funeral services of
Mrs. Stanford presents many serious
problems to the faculty committee in
charge of the arrangements. The
Memorial Church seats nearly 1000, but
from present indications twice that
number will seek admittance. But
while the capacity of the church is
limited, at the Stanford mausoleum,
where part of the services are to be
held, there is ample room for a con-
gregation of many thousands.
The entire student body will be seat
ed in the galleries and in the organ
loft. The main floor will be reserved
in sections for pallbearers, trustees,
faculty, alumni, employees of the estate
and the university. and official repre-
sentatives Of the many organizations
with which Senator and Mrs. Stanford
were connected during their lives.
There viii be little space left in the
church for the general public One
lower transept has been reserved for
them, with seats for about 500 For
the convenience of the congregation

sity has appointed the following ush-

Court of Claims Decides
That Government Must Pay
Big Sum to the Indians
RESULT OF OLD CASE
Liability Grows Out of a
Treaty Made Seventy Years
Ago With the AbOrigines
RESULT OF OLD CASE

WASHINGTON, March 2o.-The
cases of the Cherokee Indians and of
individual Cherokees against the
United States were decided by the
Court of Claims to-day. They involve
an unusual and extraordinary char
acter.
The United States bought the Chero-
kee outlet, agreeing to pay for it S.
100000, being about 81 per acre, and
also agreeing to reopen a long stand
ing controversy between the nation
and the Cherokees. In ---5 a treaty
was made under which the Cherokees
were to move or be removed from
Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee to the
Indian Territory. The Cherokees con-
tended that before they were removed
under the provisions of the treaty
they were not to be made to pay the
cost Of removing from homes which
they did not wish to leave, to a coun-
try to which they did not wish to go.
The Government held to the contrary.
When the Cherokee outlet was sold the
Indians attorneys contended that all
of their accounts should be reopened
and the matter equftably settled, and
for that purpose the United States
should make out an account to the
Cherokee nation. If the Cherokee ma
tion adopted 1t, Congress should i'm
mediately appropriate for whatever
balance might be found due. The ac-
count was adopted, but Congress did
not appropriate the money and for
some time did nothing.
In the present suit the Court of
Claims decides that the account trans
mitted by the Secretary of the Inte-
rior followed by this inaction OF Con-
gress, renders the United States liable
for the balance of 81. Ill .2s4, with inter
est from June IL, 1888. which amounts
approximately to 81, SOC, 900.

sKIT FROM THE GERMAN.

At the Court Theater, whose mana
gers are trying the experiment of pro-
ducing plays with ideas in them, three
one-act pieces are being given this
week. The first, "A Pot of Broth, by
w. B. Yeats. is rather too slight to
please ordinary play-goers The sec
ond is Bernard Shaw's How He Lied
to Her Husband"
The third play is well worth the at
tention of some American manager. It
is a translation from the German. 1t
is called "In the Hospital" and its
scene is the extra ward of such an In
stitution in Vienna There Karl Rade-
macher's life is ebbing away. His ca
reer has been a failure. He has worked
hard as hack journalist to earn a
scanty wage, and what has made 1t all
the more bitter is that, while he has
gone down, his old companion, Alexan-
der Weihgart, no cleverer or more ca
pable, Rademacher Is convinced, has
steadily ascended. His own earnest de-
his successful rival, to let him know
that his friendship has been a pretense,
that he hates him: and he Is overjoyed
when the doctor consents to ask Weih-
CART to come.
There is an actor, Florian Schubart,
also in the hospital, and he suggests a
rehearsal of the coming scene; he will
be Weihgart-what has Rademacher to
say to him2 The writer begins his
yenemous TRADE. He casts the mask
aside, tells the other what he has long
ed to tell, and winds up with a cruel
stab-Weihgart' wife, he declares, has
been his mistress Exhausted by the
effort, for his wrath has carried him
beyond his strength, he is lying quietly
back in his chair when Weihgart ar
rives, and begins to talk soothingly, to
1T a mis- g
to speak of the disappointments and
irritations that have constantly affected
himself in the midst of his apparent
prosperity; and Rademacher is gradu-
ally moved to gentler thoughts When
the allotted quarter of an hour has
gone the two part in all kindness,
Weihgart never dreaming than any
hard thought has been in his old
friends mind.

idge, who recently made a hit as the

Since he returned from the United
States George Edwardes has been busy
making arrangements for new musical
plays. The success of THE Duchess
of Dantzic'' in both London and New
York and the complete conquest of
audiences here by Messengers We

there is money in French light operas,
and he is having three more Partisan
successes adapted for him. "Veronique'
is to follow THE Duchess of DantZic"
to the United States as soon as It's Lon
don run is over and if the new adapta-
tions are successful here they will be
seen in America, too.
The first of them is almost ready for
production and will follow The Gin

year at Daly's, is limits last fortnight
In French the new piece was called
Les P'tites Michu." The music is by
Messa ger and the book has been done
into English by Henry Hamilton, who

LONDON, March 20.-What a Glib

Hicks play, where she is doing it at
present, supported by ten other Glib

1t was a lawsuit over a stage dress,
however, which caused the character
istics of the Gibson girl to be discussed
in court. The action was taken against
an American actress named Kate
Hardren, who ordered costume from
a London dressmaker, but didn't pay
for it. Her defense was that the dress
was unsatisfactory-So much so, in
fact, that she lost an engagement at
the Palace Music Hall because of it.
She was going TO do a Gibson Girl act
at the Palace, but after trial per-
formance the management decided
they didn't want it, and Miss Hardren
blamed it all on the dress. The Judge
before whom the case was tried con-
fessed that he didn't know what a Glib
son girl was, and after much solemn
interropat ton OF various witnesses it
was decided that she was "a girl with
a perfect figure and perfectly fitting
dress" The music hall people were un-
kind enough TO declare that it was not
her dress but a want of grace in Miss
Hardrens movements which lost her
the enga cement, but the learned Judge
decided in her favor on the ground
that if the costume had suited her re-
uuirements it undoubtedly would have

This bill provides that elections in

The extending of the terms of cOun-

At a. corresponding date one year ago
a large part of the central valleys and

There seems to be no doubt but that
