Aside from the head-liner act the
bill is neither unusually good nor very

INDIANA MAN
CAPTURES BRIDE
TWO OTHER CHARMERS GET THE
MlTTEN FROM FAIR DAMSEL
PEetty Contest for a Bellies Hand
Growing Out of Romance That
Began at Gathering of Sons
of the Hoosier State

Outdistancing two suitors for the
hand of Boyle Heights belle, Sam
uel Louden won a bride and the con-
gratulations of many 1ndianians who
knew of the progress of the romance.
Miss Adah Gillett, also a daughter
of the Hoosier state, was the center
of the romance which had it's origin
where many do-in dancing party.
Louden and Miss Gillett long since
forswore allegiance to Indiana for that
of California but they have made it
rule to be present at all functions
of the Indiana society. 1t was at one
of these that the two first met.
They came from Evansville, they dis
covered.
They had mutual friends.
They were congenial
These three condolences brought
them in closer touch but not without
the opposition of two other young men
mot 'Indianians-to whom Miss Gill
lett looked fairest OF all. They resent
ed the gallant newcomers arrival as
intrusion, but the gentleman from In
diana was of determined stock.
Louden maneuvered with dash and
discretion, but did not feel that his
path was entirely clear until yester-
day afternoon, when he tucked away
the marriage license in his coat.
He has just attained his majority,
while his bride-to-be lacks a year of
doing so.
Anxious to keep the marriage a par
tial secret, the young couple will have
but a few intimate friends to witness
the ceremony today, and afterwards
they will go to Santa Catalina, where
they can spend their honeymoon and
read James Whitcomb Riley out of one
book amid idyllic surroundings.

"LITTLE TROOPER"
FALLS FLAT AT
THE HOTCHKISS

"The Little Trooper" which opened at
the Hotchkiss last evening, is supposed
to be light opera, but it isn't, 1t is a
tragedy. 1t tells of the weak spots in
the Olympia Opera company and is
gruesomely suggestive of dancing above
tombs.
"The Little Trooper is the greatest
disappointment that the Hotchkiss has
given this season. Others of The
operas which they have presented have
been poorly presented, but none with
such utter lack of regard for ability
as that which is being presented this
week.
While Miss Kendall is coy after a
certain heavy fashion, her singing is
not enjoyable.
If the Olympia Opera company man
ayers expect to play the remainder of
The season to anything but empty seats,
tLey must do better than they do this
week. Whether it is the fault of the
management in choosing operas that
are beyond the powers of the company,
or whether the company as whole is
so incompetent that everything Is be-
yond its powers, Is not clear.
If the cast of the company were to
be disbanded and built up again around
Pltkin, West, Albertson and possibly
Miss De Val, good opera, we'll present
ed could be expected. But with lead
ing woman who does not even pretend
to be able to sing and with a chorus
that might be composed of mummies,
so far as animation is concerned, one
cannot expect to see even such light
opera as The Little Trooper" well
done.
Los Angeles would undoubtedly sup
port a company such as the Tivoli of
San Francisco has, and the operas
which are presented in that house would
certainly succeed in Los Angeles, but
ambitious productions staged poorly
and sung worse than poorly, cannot
hope to attfact audiences of large
size to suppor the house.
With the ! ssibilities which the
Hotehkiss has, is rather pity that

Gather our cut flowers while we may;
Youth fades-loVe goes and roses die
Gone are the SHOWS of yesterday!

DAVIS COMEDY,
1.-THE DICTATOR"
FULL OF LAUGHS

1.-The Dictator" Richard Harding
Davis roaring comedy, is the happy
choice of the Belasco management this
week and they are to be congratulated,
for 1t would be difficult to find a better
antidote for the effects of Lent
OF laughs there are as many as any
one could desire, for each new predica-
ment of the New Yorker, Brooke Ira
vers, alias Steve Hill, alias Col. John
Z. Bowie, is more ridiculous than the
others. From the lifting of the cur
tain on the shining decks of an Ameri-
can steamer at Porto Banos until the
Dictator, under confused but happy
circumstances finally resolves to do all
his debating in future to his stenog-
rapher in America, Joseph Galbraith
and his associates left little to be de-
sired.
Joseph Galbraith and Margaret Lang
ham without doubt carry off the
honors, though there are others of the
Belasco stock company who do much
that is worth while.
The role Is Galbraiths as much as If
it had been written for him. 1t is CAL
braith without much acting. He is the
young American, with the easy-going,
devil-may-care manner, without half
trying to be.
Margaret Langham, as Juanita, the
Spanish girl who made everyone dance
at the point of a dagger, not only looked
the part but arose to the situations
with wonderful force, and she un-
earthed a fairly good Spanish accent.
Virginia Brissac, who was cast in the
impossible role of Lucy Sheridan, the
missionary girl, was little more than
foil for Galbraith, though Miss Bris-
sac is not to blame.
Robert Dempster, as the missionary,
was sufficiently long-faced and added
much to the righteousness of the situa-
tions in which he appeared.
Joseph de Grasse, who Is one of the
more recent acquisitions of the Belasco
company, was a creditable Jose, though
his Spanish accent would bear improve
ment.
Mr.. Barnum deserves another godd
mark in his list of achievements, for
"The Dictator" is splendidly staged and
the wireless telegraph instrument adds
a tinge of reality without which the
piece would lack much.
Mr. Barnum's performance of the
valet is characterized chiefly by a
vacant stare and a general caved in
appearance.
Richard Vivian is not in his element
in the role of the nonchalant easy
going operator. Mr.. Vivian Is necessar-
lily strenuous and found it difficult to
keep from looking interested.
The entire force of men in the COM
pany is in the cast, but the women are
only three.

CLUB BARS PooLRooMs
Attempts at Disassociating Racing
Game and Outside Gambling Re-
suits in TeIegraphic Censorship
By Associated Fress.

By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 16.-In an effort
entirely to disassociate racing in this
state from any connection with pool
room gambling in New York city or
elsewhere, the Queen County Jockey
club at Aqueduct today took charge of
all telegraph wires running into the
grounds and established strict CEN
sorship over all kilograms, incoming
and outgoing, with a dead line delay
Of twenty minutes on all Of the out
going messages.
All telephone connection with the
track has been discontinued and the
only way that the results of today's
races could be known to the outside
world quicker than the time limit fixed
by the Jockey club was by the sending
of messengers from the track en-
closure to some point in the vicinity
of Aqueduct where telephone was
available.
Last year the regular poolroom SER
vice from the eastern race tracks con-
Quoted by a telegraph company was
discontinued To give the necessary in
formation to the poolrooms this year a
news agency has been established with
headquarters in Chicago.
The representatives of this agency
were at Aqueduct today prepared to
file information on the races in COM
mercial kilograms and were taken en-
tirely by surprise at the drastic action
of the Jockey club.
The plans of the racing association
had been carefully guarded and the
first intimation of the restrictive steps
taken today was notice to the news
paper representatives that all mes
sages filed at the telegraph office at
Aqueduct will be subject to twenty
minutes delay.
Not only did the Jockey club strictly
guard the telegraph wires, but it with
held all advance information as to
non-starters, the assignment of jockeys,
etc. even to those within the race
track enclosure.
Heretofore the scratching of horses
had been announced as soon as the
Withdrawals occurred. The withhold
ing of this information was a severe
blow to the poolroom service, as with
out 1t the proprietorS and bettors IN
such establishments must operate
largely in the dark.
Various subterfuges were resorted to
today to overcome the obstacles set
by the Jockey club, but the sending
OF messages to nearby points to tele-
phone the results was the only prog
ress the poolroom interests made
against the new order of things.
In each instance the messenger had
to repay his admission into the grounds,
So fee being exacted for the grand
stand enclosure The censorship OF
kilograms forwarded from the track
after the delay of twenty minutes has
been placed in the hands of the de-
tective agency which has general
charge of the admissions to the track
and the safeguarding of patrons.

of Paris defeated Jacob Schaefer of
Chicago in the thirteenth game of the
worlds 1872 championship billiard
tournament tonight by a score of 800
to $50.
This result attained in the twenty
fourth inning was somewhat of a sur
prise. In the second and thirteenth
innings Schaefer made 95 and 119, re-
spectively, with all his old-time force
and freedom of stroke, but he had sew
eral poor innings in between and from
the fifteenth to the final inning he got
into double figures only once. The
Frenchman played sterling billiards in
many innings, his best runs being
productive of 9S, rs and 66.
Cure had shown some of his expert
ness in earlier games but he excelled
all his previous efforts in teh tourna-
