New Haven Thenfer.

That much-talked of play, "The Clansman, will be seen at the New Haven theater tonight. Lovers of American drama at its best will lool, forward with pleasant anticipations to this engagement, which promises to he the red-letter event of the season. Tho play is as well known as any dramatic offering of the past fifty years. Ii is based upon MT. Dixon's novels. "Tbe "Leopard's Spots" and "The Clant man" but it is at the same time an or- iginal work. In adopting it to the stapa due regard was paid not only to the dramatic unities, but to the sense of what is proper and fitting in dramat- ic as coHtrasted with a literary produo- tion. The play preserves the best com edy of the novels, and uses as it's main theme the love of the southerner. Ben Cameron for the northern girl. Elsie Stoneman. Cameron is the leader of tbe Ku Klux Klan, and it is the Klan that hunts down the murderer of his sister and prevents the mulatto, Silas Lynch from terrorizing the Stonemans into an unnatural alliance.
 Among the scenes are those of tha Ku Klux den, a vast, ill-lighted cave in the mountain side; the rose garden of the Cameron home; the interior of inc historic mansion, and the library of the mulatto's house.
 The action does not lag for moment Pictures of Southern life pass and re- pass while the thrilling story is being enacted
 George H, Brennan has re-engaged the principal members of last seasan,s company, and has strengthened it ma terially by several new and very cana ble people. The cast now comprises Maurice Freeman, James J. Ryan M j. Jordan, John B. Hymer, Lawrence Eddinger, Murry Woods, Aileen Good- win, Ruth Hart, Airs. Charles G.

MEETING OF HISTORICAL SOCIETY.

 per OH 'The Stutc of Franklin"
 meeting of the New Haven Colony Historical society was held last night in the club rooms on Grove street. Pro- lessor Curtis M Geer of the history department of the Hartford Theological seminary, read a paper on ''The State of Franklin" His remarks were found very interesting to the audience. Pros lessor Geer described the early settle- ment of the Scotch-Irish beyond the AL leghany mountains. Here they formed several settlements in what they thought wasf Virginian territory, but which after & survey was found to be- long to North Carolina. The settlers, for various reasons. disliked to be con- sidered a part of North Carolina. Ac- cordingly they seeded and drew up a constitution for a separate and inde- pendent government, at first called the state of FTankland and later known as the state of Franklin, named after the great American statesman Carolina resented this withdrawal and consider- able trouble ensued. In 1790 the vari- ous land claims of the Atlantic states in the territory west of the mountains to the Mississippi were ceded to the federal government. Franklin state petitioned to the federal congress for
 
 In 1796 Franklin state came to an end by the admission of the state of Ten nessee to the Union.
 Franklin state was situated in what is now Washington county, in the state of Tennessee. The relation of the events in this interesting and critical period of United States history was found quite interesting. It is generally little known, and the constitution of Franklin state, drawn up in 1f84, was lost for over a hundred years. It was found again a few years ago among some records in the Tennessee insur- ance commissioners office
 At the close of Professor Geer's ad- dress President Williston Walker, of the Historical society called for re- marks from the floor The speaker was questioned by several of the audience in regard to the history of this strange movement Refreshments were then served in the Darlors downstairs by tho ladies of the society.
 Professor Geer was given vote of thanks for his kindness in reading his interesting paper.

nIIom Thentcr.

That highly popular melodrama, "The Two Orphans" was enthusiastically re- ceived yesterday at the Bijou, where it is being presented this week by the Stock company The performance of the play by the Stock is extremely good. Special scenery is presented, and the scenic effects are elaborate and complete, The play is costumed with the gorgeous French costumes, which are now obsolete except at the French court, and upon the stage.
 The parts of the two orphans are playel by Gertrude shipman as Louise, the blind girl, and Dorothy Lamb as Henrette. Miss shipman plays the character with all that wealth of pathos with which she is endowed. It is a pa- thetically appealing character, and its forcefulness is ever present in her in- depreciation of the role. Miss Lamb is splendid as the grief-stricken sister who sacrifices everything in an endeav- or to find the little lost wanderer
 The entire supporting company should be commended for its work. Miss Cr7- Illus in the character of Mother Fro chard offers a bit of work that is arr tistic. Lawrence B. aIeGi.l is commani' ing in the character of Chevalier Mau rice De Aubrey William CanHeld is exceptionally good as Jacques, the out law. and Everett BuderfeA is extreme ly clever as Piere the cripple
 The play is t3 De given all this week with the usual souvenir matinees The sale of seats for the Christmae day per- formances of Because She Loved Him So' is now on. Patrons desiring their regular seats should get them early as they will not be held after the last two hours preceding the afternoon and evening performances.

AGAINST GAMBLING.

SOMEWHERE among the printed tele- grams purporting to come from Wash ington has lately been noticed mention of measure before congress-said to be very likely to become a law-making it felony to gamble in Alaska. At Nome the mine workers union opposed gambling with such effect that the dis trict court is undertaking to suppress it, or at least impose penalties on those who engage in it. At Cleary City the miners association has expressed itself emphatically in favor of suppressing gambling. Indeed, it is likely that a majority of people in Alaska would bling had been declared d felony pun ishable by long imprisonment.
 Where there are so many people who tilllik tilIS way We Will iiaNe lo duiiiit that gambling is an evil. In fact, every phase of the business shows it is not good. This far most gamblers them selves will be agreed.
 Even so Even so Perhaps, though, after the law is passed, some of us who have favored it will get so busy looking after the moral welfare of others that we will neglect our own. One thing is true if men who gamble in the future are sent to the penitentiary, those who have gambled heretofore will owe their free dom more to circumstance than to their own merits. The passage of a law will not change the moral aspect of the case. Would juryman, sitting in case, feel morally obliged to send man to the penitentiary for an offense of which he himself had been often guilty?
 The man who cries out for the law to protect him against himself is unworthy of consideration. Nature will attend to his case. The large number who are honest in trying to bring about better condition among their fellow men do deserve consideration, even by those who think their efforts are misdirected. But when all is said the fact is likely to remain that morals resting solely on legal enactments will never grow to be

IS THERE TO BE NO COURT?

Until confirmation is received, this paper is bound to discredit the state ment of the dispatch that there will be no term of court held at Fairbanks ''this season''-''this season. being construed to mean the approaching summer.
 Several things in the dispatch are in comprehensible, in the light of what has happened and the darkness of things we know not of. For instance, Senator Nelson's alleged threat to kill the Alas kan delegate bill Washington dis patches printed in Alaska newspapers said the bill was passed by the senate without dissenting vote on Feb. ,, and was favorably acted on by the house March ,, which, according to the time honored traditions of congress, would pass it on for the presidents considera ton. What deadly instrument could the senator have up his sleeve with which to accomplish the fetcide just at the moment, as it were, the precious creation is about to have it's birtl,?
 If Judge Wickersham is not to be confirmed what is the use to keep up the juggling? If there were good reason why he should not be confirmed the senate should not have hesitated five months to say so.
 Men may have to lie in jail nearly two years waiting for their cases to be tried. But we are not prepared to believe it- vet. Some lonesome two men should he sent into this division to dispose of the business of the court. And ii this is not done the jail doors ought to he opened and every untried prisoner set at liberty: for no man should be com pelled to spend more than year behind prison bars without being convicted 0i any crime.
 Enter any as-emhlase and spring the question, What advantage, it any, does Alaska derive from being under the control oi the Cnited states? and the protection of the courts will he cited a- the most important. Ii this is tn he dvnic,l. there k little left to be

The Money-Mad Poor.

It is great mistake TO suppose that
every rich man is money mad, for
many rich men are money sick, and it
is q still greater mistake to suppose
that the only money mad people in the
world are rich people. A man who Is
poor but bent on becoming rich is much
more likely to be money mad than a
man who has an independent fortune,
only he shows it in different way. A
man Of large fortune who is money
mad shows it by his continued activity
in money making. The poor man who
is money mad shows it by envying md
hating those who are more successful.
