 "She has satisfied her creators and fulfilled all anticipations. When 80 per cent. of her guns were first fired to- gether, with total energy of S45,792 foot tons, some cups and saucers were broken.
 "All else withstood the immense con- cussion, and the difficult problem of preventing the blast of one gun from interfering with that of another was found to have been satisfactorily solved.
 "She has completed a voyage of 10,- GOO miles, and without using all her boiler power maintained 8 speed of over seventeen knots for S,400 miles, and could have done another thousand at the same speed,

 While the members of the cast and chorus have worked faithfully on the presentation of the "Geisha" the greatest part of the credit for the pro- duction will fall on the shoulders of MT. Frank Nelson whose creative genius and knowledge of the stage has made actors, even though they be amateurs, out or every day people and built about them fairy pictures of Japan that will be the prettiest part of the production. It will be the in- dividual efforts of the participants which will count in the minds of au- diences who attend the "Geisha" but the actors will realize that the per- sonality of Mir. and Mrs. Nelson has made it possible for them to reach the place they have.
 For the dancers Miss Jennie Mae Beers has created dances which bid fair to outshine the works of the Musette girls which she coached last year. She has more pupils this year and has taught the 8 number of pie turesque Japanese dances in addition to a series of specialties that are sure to bring down the house. The coach ing of the Grays who appear in con. nection with these dances has been handled by MT. Southerton.
 Last year the friends of the Grays went to the "Mocking Birdp because they were friends of the company and went away wondering at the excel fence in what they had seen. This has beeu borne in mind and the militia men have gone ahead this year on the theory that success with the .'Geisha will mean something far better thar one year ago. If money, stage effects good material, the hardest kind oi hard work for weeks and the ablest of coaches to train everyone counts for aught. the "Geisha" will accom- plish the thing for which the Grays have striven.

ROOSEVELT ID END
 TALK OF THIRD TERM Will Make Another Renunci- ation if It Becomes
 Necessary. PREPARED TO DO IT New Mover Haywood Let ter Expected on Undesir-
 able Citizens.
PREPARED TO DO IT

Washington, May 3.-It Is declared on the authority of those close to Pres ident Roosevelt that he is prepared to issue another statement on the ques- ton of accepting a renomination, and that if insistence that he accept a third term becomes so strong as to indicate that the 1908 convention will tender him the nomination he will come out in a procurement so emphatic that it can neither be misunderstood nor ig- nored.
 The president is well aware that great numbers of politicians and vot- CTS do not accept his past utterances on the third-term proposition as final. He feels, however, that it would be presumptuous now further to declare himself out of the running, and he does not propose to do so unless 1t seems imperative.
 That it will be necessary, however for the president once more to declare himself is the belief of many well-ad- vised politicians. Several of them have said so here in the last few days
 The president feels that many of the politicians who are talking third term in public are doing it because they con sider it enhances their own popularity He also thinks the strength of the third-term talk means that Roosevelt policies and Roosevelt man will be indorsed by the next convention.
 The president is expected to whacl the undesirable citizens" in organized labor ranks more vigorously than evel when he writes to the Central Feeder. ated union of New York, to be read a the meeting next Sunday, as he prom ised the committee from that body ht would so when 1t called on him. 1 The president is standing pat on hi' Haywood Mover Debs letter. He ha' no purpose to injure the cause of Hay wood and Mover in the courts, put he refuses to countenanee the radical ac | ton and utterances of some of the la bor leaders.
 1 There is reason to believe he mad 1 this plain to the committee yesterday It Is understood the White House hai unused material at hand which tn, president regards as an ample justlfi cation of his stand, and that it may b. alluded to in the forthcoming letter.
 It was authoritatively ascertained to day that MT. Roosevelt did not act i'm pulsively in writing the Jackson lette and assuming a hostile attitude t, Haywood and Mover. A year ago tn department of justice, under the dlrec ton of the president, sent specia agents to investigate the situation Il Idaho and Colorado precipitated by tn Western Federation of Miners. Tn ISteuenberg murder was investigated The president was fully satisfied b, the results of this investigation that leaving the murder charge agains Haywood and Mover out of the ques ton, these men deserved censure fo their conduct. In short, he fully forti fled himself as to the facts in the gen eral situation months before he wrot to Jackson.

Frank D. Nelson. Judging from the stage re- hearsals which have been held, the "Geisha' will be another success added to the credit of the militamen, even greater than that which they made with their debut into comic opera with the 'Mocking Bird" last year.
