CHICAGO OPERA HOUSE.


Crowded houses met the production
of The Cowboy and the Lady" this
week at the Chicago opera house. This
play is the one in which Nat Goodwin
and Maxine Elliott made one of their
greatest successes, and the manner in
which it was mounted and acted at the
Chicago playhouse. which has for
many years held the record for mag
niicent productions, has been thor
oughly appreciated by the discriminat-
ing theatergoers, who have formed a
regular clientele of the dramatic COM
pany. The audience grew in size as
the week grew older, and the express
sions of pleasure and qualification at
the superb acting have been general.
The work Of Miss Florence Reed, the
daughter Of Roland Reed, who has
been playing Mrs. Weston in The
Cowboy and the Lady," has been great
ly liked Miss Reed is young, ambi-
tious and one of the most promising
actresses we have seen in a long time.
William Bramwell was a thoroughly
satisfactory Teddy North. The cast
was happy all through, the members
of the company fitting into their parts
as though they had been born into
that particular sphere of life.
Next week will see the production of
a play which was acted al the same
house nearly twenty years ago by Will
liam H Crane. It is that celebrated
satire on Washington life. The Sena-
tor written by David d. Lloyd. 1t
tells Of the trials. laughable and pa
thetic, of a raw Western senator at the
national capital. The senator was I'M
trained in the fnesse of the American
Paris, but he was possessed of shrewd-
ness, humor and generous impulses,
which pulled him through many other
wise trying situations. The play is a
sterling one, funny and stirring as
well, and is one that has made the
greatest success for Crane that he
has ever enjoyed in his whole career.
It will be put on next week with all
the style and effect which made the
play first 50 celebrated.

San Francisco, Nov. lathe Call
says that Secretary Metcalf. before
leaving for Washington. confided to
few intimate friends that the senti-
ment Of the people of San Francisco,
if not the whole state, was opposed to
allowing Japanese and Chinese chill
dren to mingle freely with Caucasian
children in the public schools, and that
it was likely that the statute pTOvid-
ing that Asiatic children be taught in
separate schools would be strengthened
at the coming session Of the legisia-
ture
The secretary said further, according
to The Call, that it was his opinion
as a lawyer that the treaty between
the United States and Japan guar
anteed to the children of Japanese
resident in this country the right to
an education in the public schools with
out discrimination and on an equal
plane with the children of the most
favored nations, and that he so would
report to President Roosevelt.

thoroughly delightful dramatic
novelty is being offered at the Garriek
theater this week ia the Road to
Yesterday" It's first audiences went to
the theater with the vaguest notions
of what would be really revealed in
this curiously named play, concerning
which it had been SO mysteriously an
nounced that it dealt with the spirit
of fantasy with the idea of reincarna-
ton of souls. What they have seen is
a refreshing whimsical comedy, half Of
which is told in the shape of a unique
dream play A young American girl

don and the Old World falls under the
superstitious spell of midsummer eve
and, dizzy with the exciting peeps
which she has had of a romantic past.
falls into a sleep-like trance in which
she is waited back to the England of
Elizabeth and Shakespeare. The odd
part OF it all is that she not only seems
to be herself living a real life among
the picturesque figures Of that time,
but she sees all her modern London
relatives and friends moving around
her in the strange guise of that by
gone age. The metamorphoses or
changes of conditions are strikingly
astonishing. Gypsy and witch or wife
and tapster, lord of the castle and
maid of the inn. soldiers OF fortune
and all the typical characters of the
England of 1903 enact a peculiar dream
romance in which exciting melodrama.

to modern scenes and personalities
once more. and two love romances-
one serious and poetic. and the other
happy and light-hearted-are brought
TO a pleasant climax in curiously in

fuI of picturesque charm and dramatic
surprises, with the spirit OF comedy

SEA SERPENT YARNS.

The latest sea serpent story which was told
to the Geological Society by Messrs. NicoH and
Waldo, recalls an equally weird narrative which
was placed on the admiralty records as far
back as 1S48. II was a report by Captain Peter
McQuhoe, of H. NJ S. Dsedalus and referred to

OF Good Hope to St Helena A midshipman

ship and directed the attention Of the captain,
the officer of the watch. and the master to IT.
1T discovered says the captains report,
Ito be an enormous serpent with head and
shoulders kept about four feet constantly above

length Of what our maintopsail yard would

was about 10 or IS inches behind the head,
which was, without any doubt. that OF snake,
and it was never, during the twenty minutes
that it continued in sight, once below the sur

Livy and Pliny describe both sea and land
serpents and CLAUS Magnus in the sixteenth
century, mentions one 200 feet long and 20 feet
round and states that it not only ate calves
