The National Theater.

Richard earle, Of "Tenderfoot" fame, Is
a tenderfoot no longer. AT the National
Theater last night the farcical opera, THE
Mayor of Tokio"-the book by Mr.. earle
and the music by William Frederick Peters
had its initial presentation in Washington
and made distinct hit. There was to
have been special Labor day matinee yes
terday afternoon, but the company-Wash
ington-bound from St. Louis-was delayed
by wreck on the road and arrived barely
in time for the evening performance. Mr..
earle tearfully referred last night to the
fact that the house had been sold out for
the matinee that didn't materialize.
The Mayor of Toxic" scenery, tunefully
and otherwise, deserves place IN the front
rank of productions Of its kind. The cast,
headed by Mr. earle himself, in the role of
Marcus Orlando Kidder, impressario, Is
competent and clever, the costumes, in or
iginality of conception and charm of color
contrast, are all that could be desired. and
the mechanical effects unique and beautiful.
Collectively the chorus Is big and well
trained and melodious Individually it is
young and enthusiastic. graceful and pref
ty;, The production abounds in the So
called "ca tchy'' airs that make for popular
favor, and Carlesque humor is on tap from
curtain to curtain.
Mr. earle was, of course, first and fore
most of the funmakerS, assisted by Fred
Treva as the mayor; Tony Hart as Ivan
Orfuitch, q Russian spy; Edwin Baker as
N!kko the royal messenger; William Rock
as Rusty. the songbook boy, and Minerva
Courtney as Birdie Talcum. the soubrette
of Kidders' consolidated Komiques. Hor-
tense magnetic as OIoto San. daughter of
the mayor. displayed voice Of sweetness,
fervor and remarkable range The singing
of Cecilia Rhoda as Betsy Lincoln. an
American heiress, was received with
marked favor. The dancing of the Pea
nut" ballet was on the whirlwind order and
was not the least interesting feature Of the
production.
OF plot there Is but thread. and even
that not too strong, but 1t seems to keep
things moving in the imperial city OF
Toxic.

We expect to make some sacrifices to

we hope to convince them that if they Will

1t IS understood tina. the present COM
mander-in-chief, Capt. William E. English,
the Indianapolis millionaire, is favorable to
meeting in Washington next year, and will
lend his influence in that direction.
Arguments for Washington.
One reason that will be urged for the
holding of the 1905 convention in Washing
ton is that September s. 1899. the first ma
tional gathering of Spanish War Veterans
held in the United States took place in this
city at the National Guard drill hail. over
the Center Market. The convention was at
tended by representatives from almost
every state in the Union. and among the
delegates We're several Coiored men from
Louisiana, Virginia and Alabama.
Gen. J. Warren keifer of Ohio, a former
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
was elected the first commander-in chief,
and several Washington veterans We're
elected to national offices. The fact that
the first camp of Spanish War Veterans
Gen. Nelson A. Miles, No. land the first
national encampment was held here, makes
this city the birthplace of the organiza ton,
according to local members and they feel
now that the erstWhie infant has grown
big and hearty 1t should give consideration
to the city that first brought Il into being.
Another reason that will be urged for the
holding of the next convention her. is that
as yet there are comparatively few camps
Of the association in the southern states.

The Uintah Grazing Association Of
Utah have Just closed a deal with tho
Union Pacific Railroad Company which
involves the leasing of practically 1000.
600 acres OF land in Wyoming for sheep
grazing purposes. AT the same time
it gives the leasers practical control of
an equal amount of Government land,

land will furnish Winter grazing for
800, 900 sheep. Under the laws Of
Wyoming the land can be kept free
from transient grazers without fencing
the range. Like all other Union Pa
cific leases this one runs for one year,
but the leasers have option to renew

OBSERVATIONS ON LAWMAKERS
Eureka and White Pine Senator's
Are Good Representatives.

The Carson correspondent of the
Wells Herald contributed to that paper
last week some interesting observations
of the lawmakers from Eastern Nevada
who are members of the present Legis-
lature, and has the following to say OF
the Senators from Eureka and White
Pine Counties:
Eureka County has the proud distinc-
ton of having in the Senate a gentle
man who has seen ten years of consecu-
tive legislative experience. We refer
to Hon. Robert Raftice of Eureka. He
was first elected to the Assembly in
1896, again in '9S again in 1900. and in
1902 he was elected Senator, defeating
his opponent by II votes, although So.
600 was used in an effort to beat him.
The people of Eureka did well when
they decided Mr.. Raftice their choice.
He is broad minded and his record is an
open book. Plain, -unassuming and
honest, no measure will receive his sup
port that is not drawn to the interest of
the people.
Senator Gallagher Of White Pine is
another worker. He is always at his
desk studying the messages of State Of
icers and preparing for wise legislation.
