Whites Faust" attracted a large
matinee audience yesterday and in the
evening there was not vacant seat
In the theatre. Scenically, it is a
splendid production and the pathetic
story it tells is one of which the pub
lie seems never to tire. Like fairy
tale of childhood days, Faust fasci-
mates and entertains and interests
again and again. The presenting COM
pany is thoroughly capable. In the
portrayal of the role Of Marguerite
by Miss Olga Verne, however. lies
the chief artistic charm of the per-
Torrance. Miss Verne's 'eMarguer-
lite" is an exQuisitely delicate yet force
full piece of work which gives promise
of high future attainment Mr. Fred
erick J. Wilson's rendition of Mephis-
to left nothing to be desired.-Roches

seen at the Gennett next Saturday

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CAII

SfENlAL DlSPAIlH TO The CALL
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-Repub-
hcan politicians in this city talked of
nothing today but the effect of Pres
ident Roosevelt's reiteration of his in
tention not to be again a candidate for
the presidency. One could get almost
any kind Of an opinion desired upon
this important subject.
1t would be somewhat difficult to
reach definite conclusion as to crys-
tallized political sentiment. But the
tendency was toward consensus of
opinion that the presidents declara-
ton will force the conservatives in his
party to concentrate at an early date
upon their candidate; also that it pre-
cipitates an immediate fight in New
York state for the control of that
delegation between Hughes ano Cor
telyou. Furthermore, that it makes
the southern delegations the object of
solicitation by the prospective cand-
dates and adds to the interest of the
political situation in the south
Keenest interest viii center at once
upon New York 1t is generally be-
feved that President Roosevelt will
swing New York for Taft It is ac-
cepted as a matter Of course that the
Cortelyou boomers win proceed with
expedition to build up Cortelyou or
ora,s-atio,, in the state
Politicians said today that if Gov
ernor Hughes should come out in the
open as an avowed candidate Cor
teIyous standing would be imperiled
They added that Governor Hughes Will
have to do it very soon or thereafter
hold his peace. The Taft men were de-
lighted with President Roosevelt's an
noune ement. They felt that it has
cleared the atmosphere for their can
didate. The next development in the
presidential political situation is the
possible resignation of Secretary Taft
from the cabinet and his going it alone
in the presidential race. II will be
recalled that the report was current
last spring before Mr.. Taft departed
for the orient that he might resign
from the cabinet in December. The
report was based upon the fact that
some of his friends advised him to
pursue such a course It is as much
known at the White House today as
if an ofHeial announcement had been
made that President Roosevelt has no
second choice. He is for Taft and for
no one else.
Cortelyou is not his second choice.
From now on the race. so far as
the president Is concerned, is to be
Taft against the field.

Yet all lof his efforts and those of
numberless influential friends in high

been in vain 1t was late one evening
in March that a tremendous explosion

Judge ogden was inclined at first
not to credit the affair as having been
directed against him. subsequently he
reached the conclusion that his enemy
must have been discharged prisoner
from the state penitentiary, whom he
had sentenced years ago to a long term
of punishment.
He was not satisfied until he installed
guards In his home. For many days
unknown to any one outside of the au-

SPECIAL DISPATCH 10 THE CALL

WASHINGTON. Dec. f2.-Benjamin
1de Wheeler won the Berkeley post
office fight today hands down. Senator's
Perkins and Flint and Representative
Knowland called at the executive Of
fees and reproachfully suggested to
the president that they did not like
to see Benjamin Ide Wheeler hand out
California patronage against their will.
Knowland told the president that
he had recommended c. z. Thomas
when notified by the postofhce depart
ment that the Office was about to be-
come vacant He said ne did not know
that the president preferred Wheeler's
choice until after Thomas had been
recommended He asked the presi
dent today to withdraw Merrills name
and appoint Thomas
This the president declined to do
The president however said that he
had sent Merriii's name to the senate
inadvertently and would be glad to
withdraw It and let Knpwiand con-
suit his constituents. The under
standing was then reached in effect,
that Merrill's name would be with
drawn and that Thomas and his friends
should be made acquainted with the
presidents refusal to consider any
body but Merrill. Then the delega-
tion Is to recommend Merrill, his
name will be presented again and he
will be confirmed. Thus the delega-
ton is to save its face By having the
record show that II recommendec "a
rill and everybody will be happy. in
