A little fun;
A blossom bordered

A getting tall,
And serious, too;
And then the school
To labor through.
Then blossom bordered
Ways OF love
Just two on earth
And stars above.
Then to the altar,
Then away
To homely cares
OF every day.
Then joys untold,
Then new delight!

Then something more
Then parents glee-
A gran'child
Climbing on your knee.
And then to sleep;

But life's worth living,
For the love.

Chase'S Theater-

The dictionary of adjectives that denote
the superla tive degree would be in grave
danger of bankruptcy should Albert Chev-
alier remain long at Chases. He Is an
actor. The word may be subject to many
indignities, but like all strong characters,
1t remains true and firm as the strongest
and most complete definition of the higa.
though limited, class of demonstrators Of
the art dramatic Mr.. Chevalier represents.
His place in the armament of the stage is
not easy to define. Like Dickens in litera-
ture his efforts are directed toward bring
ing home to the people the humber and
more familiar traits of human nature In
his performance this week at Chase's AT.
Chevalier varies little the program of last
week. He has added three new songs ard
retained three of the old ones.
The remainder of the bill was very good
without endangering the pre-emnence of
the headliner. James ]. Morton entertained
in his usual style. Jane Courthope pre-
scented amusing sketch in "A Fisher
mans Luck" with the assistance of
Charles and Ross Forester and Josephine
Ainsley proved acceptable in several we'll
known songs. Reed and Shaw proved to
be excellent gymnasts and the Misses Del
more sang and played their way into favor
The bill closed with the Candles Comedy
Trio and the vitagraph pictures.

New National Theater.

The return of THE Wizard of or to the
New National Theater for its second en-
gagement here was greeted last evening
with evidences of keen enjoyment on the
part of the audience. The antics of the
Scarecrow the Tin Woodman, the lion. the
COW, the lady lunatic, the potentate OF the
mythical land of OF, and all the fantastic
characters that people the unique musical
spectacle still furnish amusement, while
the picturesque scenes and ingenious
mechanical effects of the production con-
tinue to excite the wonder and admiration.
Fred A. Stone the ScarecroW and David
e. Montgomery as the Tin Woodman, in
their extravagant but clever burlesque
work, were genuinely funny. They intro
duced a number of novel devices for pro-
ducing mirth, danced nimbly, sang several
nonsensical dittes, and won from the au-
dience bosterous expressions of approval.
sonation of Dorothy Gale, the Kansas girl.
won so much favor for her here last sea-
son, added to that favorable impression by
her work last evening. One of the most in
teresting and amusing of the female char
acters was that portrayed by Marion Stan
ley as the lady lunatic.' She displayed a
voice of pleasing quality. Her topicol song
elected loud applause. Charles Swain
capably portrayed the fake wizard and
Lolita Faust and Virginia Foltz gave cred
liable performances of their parts. The an
tics of the cow, impersonated by Joseph
Schrode. and the cowardly lion, by Arthur
HILL provided a great deal of diverting by
play.

He THE A T E R.
Columbia Theater.

wang" the frivolous, mercenary, gro
tesaue and laugh-creating regent OF SIAM
returned to Washington last night AFTER
an absence of years, and his reception at
the Columbia Theater left no doubt OF MS
welcome. Wang was great favorite In
it's day and apparently its sun will not set
for a good time to come. The operas tune
full and catchy airs were rendered to good
effect last night, and all the old song sue
cesses that sang themselves to safety when
the opera was at the height of its popular
ity, were received with generous ana
genuine If reminiscent, applause. And
never was that old favorite and hoary mead
ed classic, Casey at the Bat, rendered
by De Wolf Hopper to a more appreciat1ve
audience. OF course, there was the usual
curtain speech. ridcuously foolish, Hop
peresaue and laughable. In fact. the even
ing was very much Of a reception and re-
union and was enjoyable on those counts
and others as well. " Pretty Girl, The
Man in the Moon," THE Man With an Ele-
plant On His Hands, and "a Rose With
out Thorn, proved that they still pos
sessed the power to charm.
De Wolf Hopper was well supported by
Frank Belcher as Colonel Robert Fracasse,
the Samese military instructor, with a
continuous performance jag. who sang wen
and acted his part most capably, and by
Francis Carrier as Lieutenant Jean
Boucher. Marguerite Clark as Mataya
met with admiring approval. Ada Seares
as the widow Frimouse and Sabry DOrsell
as her Stepdaughter, were heartily applaud
ed for their work

Lafayette Tbeater.

New England rural characters were pre-
scented in Quincy Adams Sawyer at the
Lafayette Theater last evening with equal
touches of humor and pathos. The story
is taken from book of the same name by
Charles FELTON, Pidgin, the stage version
having been prepared by Justin Adams.
1t deals with 1.-The Mason's Corner folks
and young Sawyer, a lawyer from Boston,
whose popularity brings down upon him
the anger of the town boss, Prof. Obediah
Strout, and others. Not until the city man
demonstrates how easily he can out-5cx
the town bully, Bob Wood, and checkmate
the professor at his own game, does his
unpopularity in these quarters disappear.
James Thatcher makes a manly and ham,
some hero, and the comedy of Raymond
Chase, as Hiram Maxwell the ever-ea ting
country pumpkin, proved effective The
professor is well portrayed by Harry S.
Robinson. Miss Frances Williams, as
Mandy Skinner and Miss Gertrude Au-
garde as Samanthy Green, also claim at
tentiOn.

NEWsBoY's COMPLAINT.
Policeman Investigates an Alleged
Hold-Up Near Anacostia

Policeman Lusby of the Anasoctia sta
ton investigated a case involving a
"hold-up' in the woods near Fort STAN
ton, Sunday afternoon. A colored news
boy named Rufus Taylor, made the COM
plant. He said he was on his way home
after disposing of his stock of news
papers and was going across the fields
when he was stopped by a white man
and robbed of $1.05, the proceeds of his
days work. His description of the man
who robbed him tailed with that of an
inmate of st. Elizabeth's Hospital for
the Insane, and he took the boy there
yesterday afternoon. The lad promptly
identified Charles Frisbie, an inmate of
the institution, as the man who had
taken his money, but the latter entered
a denial. Frisbie was seen by other per-
sons in the vicinity of the place where
the robbery was committed. He was out
on parole Sunday in order that he might
visit his parents. While out he crossed
the bridge to the city, had his shoes
shined and bought a supply of cigarettes.
Despite his denial the police feel certain
that he is the man who took the boys
money.

Violating Oyster Law.

The officers of the steamers coming in
port from the lower river report having
sighted twelve vessels, schooners and bug
eyes, at work scraping the oyster bottoms
near Chapel Point on the Potomac for
oyster shells and plants, as small oysters
are called, in violation of the oyster laws
of both Maryland and Virginia These
shells and plants will be taken to depleted
beds in other parts of the Potomac or in
the York, Rappahannock or other rivers
and in a few years they will yield a good
crop of oysters. Meanwhile the scraping
is running the oyster beds near Chapel
Point. The oyster police boats seldom visit
the river in the neighborhood the dredges
are now at work and they, knowing this,
scrap the oyster beds bare of anything that
would aid in producing oysters.

eral HEADQUARTERS.

Washington Is to have a temple Of labor,
in which it Is expected all the workingmen's
organizations in THIS city will hold their
business meetings and functions and estab-
lish their headquarters. Important steps
toward the erection of such an edifice were
taken last night at q meeting OF the Central

streets northwest. "A general report on the
project was made by the special temple Of
labor committee, of which Mr.. Milford
Spohn Is chairman.
The report was i'm favor Of securing site
and building by Incorporation and the issu-
ance of stock. Nearly the entire evening
was spent in discussing the measure. ana
the project was finally referred back to the
committee for report as to details. Some
OF the members have plans OF q Million
dollar building in their minds. while others
are less extravagant. 1t Is safe to say,
should building be erected. 1t Will be a
modest but substantial structure, with Of
fees and large auditorium. The auditor
ium would be convenient for large conven-
lions OF abor organizations.
The plan most favored is to have build
ing centrally and conveniently located and
to have the various labor organizations
throughout the city, now renting quarters
at inconvenience and necessarily with some
extravaganza, rent quarters in the temple.
The various labor organizations having
membership in the Central Labor Union
would De asked to take STOCK, ana the tenn
pie would be made the Mecca for union
