employees.

THE TIL EAT r..
Columbia Theater.

Full of the breezy atmosphere of the west,
the Heir to the Hoorah" carries it's au-
dience at times through swirls of comedy
interest that are almost cyclonic. 1t is not a
play OF finesse. Rhetorical delicacy is not
part of its mission. Its attraction depends
almost entirely on the picturesque directness
of expression which distinguishes the miner
and the COW puncher. These plays Of our
own time and our own people have come
into rapid and wholesome vogue Of late
years The charm of the far west is still
with as, as strong as 1t was when Joaquin
Miller laid the foundation for the 'Danites"
in his sketchy little volume, First Fami-
lies of the Sierras." The Heir to the
Hoorah' does not reveal the sterner
moods of the types with which it deals. 1t Is
a comedy with simple love interest as
pretext, innocent of single revolver shot
or the most casual flourish of a knife. The
characters are drawn with vigorous
strokes, and the difficulty that so fire.
quently presents itself in providing correct
and natural portrayals of conventional So
cial types for a background of contrast
is not wholly overcome In casting this
scenes keeps the interest always warm, the
quietly serious work Of Mr.. Guy Bates
Post being sufficient to provide central
and substantial groundwork. The retribu-
tons are rather trivial, the humbling OF a
socially ambitious and unsympathetic
mother-in-law being scarcely worth the
dramatic artillery that is brought into &C
ton. But the play wins by its appeal to
human sympathy. The rude, unlettered
man who adores good women and Is seized
with wondering awe at the sight of a help
less baby is a hero wherever you find him.
He is present in every act of the Heir
to the Hoorah' depicted in various gulses
and moods from the boisterous to the inane.
Whether he is the chap with clanking spurs
and defiant swagger or a palid-cheeked
and drawing lack-brain, he is always that
onSf I'd hi 100
gentleman whose nobility Of nature as
serts itself regardless Of dress. manner and
environment. The western men, whose
bluntness give the lines Of the play so much
characteristic and entertaining quality,
were all well represented. Miss Helen
Lakaye contributes an impersonation that
is we'll gowned, well studied and worthy OF
a more important relationship to the plot
than the author has accorded it. The play
last night was received with many evil
dences of appreciation.

New National Theater.

Seldom has Miss Henrietta Crosman been
seen here in a more agreeable role than
that in which she appeared at the New Ma
tional Theater last night. A fetching little
comedy. bearing the hyphenated title, ALI
of-a-Sudden Peggy" written by Ernest
Denny, Is the vehicle provided for Miss
Crosman on her present visit to Washing
ton, and the delightful Irish girl, Peggy
O'Mara, as represented by Miss Crosman,
won instant favor with the audience. Its
scenes and characters give the play
strong English flavor, but many original
touches of literary style, clever repartee,
amusing situations and witty dialogue
make the comedy a thoroughly enjoyable
entertainment for any land or people. The
enactment Of the title role makes no seri-
Gus demands on the star. For Peggy to
have an impulse means that she will act
upon 1t without thought of consequences.
AS the. Widow O'Mara says Of her daugh-
after she has leapt," and all through the
action Of the piece her wllful caprices are
continually involving the impulsive Peggy
and others in complications that might re-
suit seriously but for their innocence. AS
1t is, they do no more than to add to the
interest of the story. The dash and sparkle
Of the piece is enhanced by the entirely
capable manner of its performance. Miss
Peggy, her personality lending a charm to
her clever and vivacious delineation Ed
ward Mackay won much favor as Jimmy
Keppel, who starts out to dazzle the fasc-
mating Irish girl and ends by falling in love
with her. One of the cleverest and most
amusing eccentric character impersona-
lions that has been seen in Washington for
a long time was that given by Ernest Stall
lard as Lord Anthony Crackenthorpe, an
expert scientific authority on spiders. His
every appearance was the signal for a
hearty laugh. The attractive Widow
OMara. who has matrimonial designs on
Lord Anthony for either her daughter or
herself, was capably portrayed by Ida Wat
erman. Kate Meek as the austere Lady
Crackenthorpe, Ann Warrington as the
breezy Mrs Colquhoun. Jane Marbury as
Mirlicent Keppel, Addison Pitt as Jack
Menzies and j. r. Crawford as Major Archie
Phipps merited praise for their creditable
performances.

Belasco Theater.

An audience whose proportions were not
disappointing, and whose approval of the
vaudeville offering was a growing one, ap-
peared at the Belasco last night. The echoes
that have hitherto caught the sweet and
even tones Of stage lovers, or the declara-
tons of conventional heroes and heroines in
serious drama last night rang with the
voices Of monologists, comic singers, fe-
male Ministries and mimics, and flung back
the vibrations of a sure-enough. roaring
lion and the harmonieS Of a brass band
The slightly unresponsive attitude of the
audience during the earlier numbers of the
bill soon gave place to warm and genuine
appreciation.
Occupying an important share on the pro-
gram were the three series of conjuring
tricks and spectacular illusions Of the wiz
ard Lafayette. His first contribution was
most appropriate for dealer in the black
art when he produced, apparently from the
air beneath fiuttering cloth shaken in his
hands before him, a pickaninny. Other SUBJ
situations were given with similar climaxes.
In THE Satyr and the Band Lafayette
gave representations Of Ofenbach, Strauss
and Creatore. He does not depend on the
orchestra, but has a brass band of his own.
Musicians not his own might have struck
back, as his treatment of the players in the
impersonation of Creatore was rather
rough.
Friday, the 13th." a one-act musical
farce written by Greasy and Niblo, con-
tanned some tuneful songs and an amusing
story. 1t gives Miss Josephine Conan the
opportunity to appear to good advantage in
singing and dancing.
Another farce is "A Night in an English
Music Hail." Music halls in England may
not allow occupants of boxes so many liber-
ties, but the idea is novel and entertaining.
Fred Niblo, in monologue and Leo Garlic
in limitations, were other features. Daily
matinees will be given.

Houdini mystifed immense audiences at

handouts and strait-jacket. Last night

and it attested its appreciation by hearty
applause, causing the curtain to be run up
several times on the finale of each act. Miss
Cecil Spooner as "Raff1es' received several
ovations and made many hits during the
evening. She was well supported by w. H.
Turner as Old Ironsides, George Palmer

others in the cast. The play depicts phases
OF modern detective work and the shrewd-

with CHEEKY musical numbers. Cecil Spoon
er maintained her reputation as the queen

EVIDENCE OF THRIFT.
Greater Washington Reality Manifest

Greater Washington Reality Manifest
in "Man's Store" Success.
Evidence is not lacking to prove that the
Greater Washington idea is a reality and
not merely glittering fancy Of the mo-
ment. canvass among the principal mer-
chants of the city indicates generous in
crease in business over last year. One of
the well-known clothing houses Of the city,
the Mans Store, of which Mr.. D. ]. Kauf-
man is the proprietor, is one of the ex-
amples of the rapid growth of great bust
ness. This store is just celebrating its ninth
anniversary in business, and yet it ranks
among the largest clothing establishments
Of the south.
This, 1t is claimed, simply proves that
Washington is by means a poor COM
mercial city when the proper methods are
used in boosting business to success. The
key to Mr.. kaufman's success is ascribed
by him to his policy Of always giving
moneys worth or money back" a phrase
which has become so closely identified with
his business that one cannot think of him
without thinking of the words which have
done SO much to establish his reputation
as liberal, brOad.minded business man of
the modern school.
Special bargain prices prevail at the Mans
Store in honor of its birthday anniversary.
the special productions of the Mans Store
for fall and winter-are offered at profit
sharing prices, and many men are antici-
pating their wants by buying the complete
winter outfit of clothing and furnishings
now.

PROTEST WITHOUT AVAIL.
Cement Sidewalk to Be Laid in Ward
Place.

Mrs L. NJ Eccard of 1880 New Hampshire
avenue recently protested to the Commits
sioners against the laying of cementzside-
walk on the north side of Ward place from
NewHampshire avenue westward to the alley
in front of lot SO, square 20. The Commits
sioners, 1t is stated, advertised that they
meant to lay the sidewalk, at an estimated
cost of s173, to be assessed against all of
the lots in square 20 abutting On the north
side Of Ward place, between the limits
named
Mrs. Eccard said that, being the owner
of lot 49, square 20, and the only one upon
most vigorously protests against the laying
of the sidewalk. Mrs. Eccard declared that
it is an unnecessary Improvement at this
time, as there are no houses facing Ward
place on the lot, which, it is stated, runs the
entire distance from New Hampshire ave-
nue. to the alley, the street being very mar
row and only one block long and very little
used, and, therefore, Mrs. Eccard added,
she thinks the sidewalk on the opposite side
of the street from her lot would be of am
pie service until she builds on her lots.
If the sidewalk should be laid now 1t
would prove an extra expense to her, Mrs.
Eccard explains.
The protest was forwarded to c. B. Hunt,
engineer of highways, who sent the paper
to Capt. j. ]. Morrow, acting engineer COM
missioner, with the statement that the
building OF the sidewalk had been ordered
He said further that the protest was re-
ceived prior to the ordering of the work,
but it was by inadvertence ordered without
reference to the protest, although the action
of the Office was taken with the knowledge
of the protest and Notwithstanding the
same. The proposed walk, he points out,
will furnish a connecting siSwalk where
none now exists. between a piece Of walk
laid under the permit system and the side
walk on New Hampshire avenue, thus af-
fording the houses which have been built
on the north side of Ward place an exit to
the avenue. In conclusion he states that the
practice of the Office has been to construct
such connecting sidewalks, and that the
work in this case is justified.
The Commissioners approved the course
of the engineers Office.

Decline to Resurface.

The Commissioners have refused the per-
sistent requests of property owners and res
idents on v street northwest to have their
thoroughfare resurfaced with asphalt. In a
letter to the Commissioners Mr.. w. ]. Dante
Of 10Th and V streets states that when it
rains the section of street in front of his
home is "a sea Of mud"
1t was also stated that 1t was in this sec
ton that Capt. Thos. Mckee was hurt by
the overturning Of his automobile, which,
it iystated, was caused by the poor condi-
ton of the street.
When the matter was presented for the
consideration of Col. Biddle District En-
gineer Commissioner, he based his objec-
ton to the improvement upon the fact that
the two blocks would cost in the neighbour
hood of $1,000. He also stated that the
work would have to be done under a sched-
ule at the present time for which there is
stated to be no appropriation.
