Heneagc, aunt Of the judge, all Of the
exclusive metropolitan upper crust,
play their parts perfectly and supply
admirably the home setting for a large
part of the play. Dudley Digges as
William Sudley, Frederick Kirby as
Brooks, the footman, Belle Bonn, as
Benson, the maid; James Morley, as
Nogam, the valet, Robert V. Fergus
son, as Tim Fiddler, and Charles Terry
as Thomas, the Phillimore family ser
want, all fill these very indispensable
minor parts in the play splendidlY.
and their art is none the less art be-
cause that they have the lesser parts.
The costumes, which are most elab-
crate and handsome, have been fully
described before. Some Of them are
magnificent. The scenerY is exquisite.
especially the furnishings Of the inter-
iOrs of the Gotham residences which
form the setting. Perhaps the best
thing about the play is its entire
Wholesomeness and its very happy and
appropriate ending. And best Of all
is the Incompatible Mrs. Minnie Mad
dern Fiske.
The orchestral music between acts
was very fine and altogether the "NeW
York Idea" is the best performances
that has visited Albuquerque for many
a day. The company left last night
for FL Paso after the performance,
and viii appear in that city tonight.
A coroners jury has recommended
that r. G. Mcbride, if held to the
grand jury at all, be held in as light
bond as possible for the killing of
George Casou at Lowell, Arizona, on

because the latter had insulted mis-

Learn to Be JOYOUS.

Laughter is a gift that makes man
akin to the gods, that wakens the best
and brightest of his nature The art
of laughter should be cultivated; in
fact, all and everything that leads to
joy The wish to be happy, the love
of gladness and beauty, is a thing to
be desired; consequently, it is worth
a little cultivation. Play is as essen
tial a factor in men lives as work.
Philosophers tell us that no man lives
mis- own life until he plays. Work
comes from the exigencies Of life,
from the ''musts" of the world, which
often push men along different paths
to those they would choose to travel
by from inclination or capacity. Play,
however, is his recreation, and here
at his leisure time comes out his whole
soul; his power of and choice of play,
his greater or lesser necessity OF It, TO
recUperate mind and body from the
strain of daily life.

REPLICA OF THE SPHINX.
Work of an American Woman Bought
for a Chicago Museum.

LondOn-A remarkable work by an
American woman sculptor, who is now
resident in Paris, has been bought for
presentation to the Field Columbian
museum in Chicago by w n. McNIil-

and explorer.
The work is a plaster replica Of the

4 DEATH OF LINCOLN
eAPT. CATCH PROBABLY LAST
SURVIVOR OF WITNESSES.
ssw Assassin Jump from Box After
Fatal Shot, Then Helped Garry
President TO House Across
Street.

Aurora, Ind.-In a pretty hillside
ssrmhouse two or three miles west of
,bis Mace, in a hale, old age-only
slightly crippled occasionally with
-baumatism-lives Capt. o. c. Catch,
an army pensioner who is probably
tbe last person surviving who was
,rasent al the deathbed Of President
Lincoln.
Capt Catch was present at the bat
ds OF Chickamauga, where he was
captured and taken to Libby prison at
Richmond After seven months i'm
,rfs9nment there he was removed to
nanVilIe, Va, thence to Macon, Ga,
thence to Columbia, S. c., and finally
TO Charlotte, \. c.. where early in the
gDring Of 1865 he escaped, crossing
the country afOOt to Knoxville, Tenn,
where Gen StOneman. in command
there. furnished him transportation to
Washington by way of Milford, o.,
his home.
At Milford he found his brother, DIR.
Charles Catch. who had meanwhile
served as a surgeon in Rosecrans'
division of Sherman's army, but had
then retired and returned to Ohio.
Capt. Catch, accompanied by his
brother in a few days started to
Washington, reaching the capital on
the morning of April IA. 1865-the day
made so sadly memorable in American
history.
Together the brothers stopped at
one of the smaller hotels and, after
looking about the city, which was new

Amundsen, navigator Of the northwest

an expert, who has made a life study
of the subject, announced that at the
root of the trouble lay the lack of uni
form legislation.
Nearly every state has some laws to
protect the fish, he said, and there are
also Canadian restrictions, but they
are not alike.
What is needed. the commissioner
explained, is a conference between
state, federal and Canadian authori-
ties to map out a program that will
give the fish a chance.
Commissioner Meehan was author
lied to present the case to President
Roosevelt and to the Canadian author
tiles, and also to prepare for each
state a draft of the bills that must be
introduced into each legislature to
cede control of the fish waters to
Washington. 1t is hoped that by the
time the United States and Canada
have their conference on the subject
Uncle Sam will have obtained from all
the interested states the rights neces-
sary to act for all.
The American Fisheries society is
an influential body, made up of the
fish commissioners of the United
States government and of the 80 states
that have been attempting to deal with
one of the most important problems
bearing on the increasingly difficult
question of food
For two years the matter of federal
control has been recognized as the
only solution of the great lakes fish
cries question, but the present move
ment will carry the idea a good deal
further and will give Washington au-
thority over every considerable body
of water in the country that is a sup
ply point for fish. Minnesota and
Michigan, recognizing the Importance
of this issue, have already ceded their
rights to the United States.
The Canadian minister Of marine
has expressed himself as eager to meet
the United States government more
than half way on any proposition that
can be advanced for the good of the
cause.
In exercising authority over the fish
waters the supply will be protected by
the enforcement of laws as to the
open and closed season, the size OF
fish to be caught, the size of the mesh
seines. so as to let the smaller fish es-
cape, the methods of fishing, protec-
ton Of the waters from pollution and
all the other advanced systems of saw
ing the fnny residents of the deep
from extinction
The movement is not planned in the
interest of sportsmen, nor for those
who sell fish. though both will benefit
largely. The spOrtsmen Of the coun-
try will be a unit for all such regula-
tons as are planned. for their one
great idea is TO see the game fish OF
Uncle Sans domain protected from
extinction.

SOLDIERS Of EUROPE
COMPARISON OF FRENCH AND
GERMAN MILITARY METHODS.
Agility and Resourcefulness on the
One Hand and Dogsed Per-
sistence on the
Other.

Paris.-Having had the privilege Of
Witnessing, at 4S hours interval, the
grand maneuvers of the French and
German armies, some comparison OF
their methods and the qualities and
defects of the troops as they strike
the spectator may be of interest.
I could but sum this up by saying
that it is a case of French mobility
against German method. The French
are warlike race, who delight in mill
tary action for its own sake. The
whole people takes delight in the
pomp and circumstance of military pa
rade. They love the 'panache" and
all that goes with it. The Germans
are the greatest military power in the
world, but the German is not warlike.
He has the highest sense of duty Of
any soldier in Europe, and that re-
places in him the Unborn fighting spirit
of the Latin race.
The French infantry soldier is prob
ably as near the ideal soldier as one
can find. He has cheerfulness under
difficulties and an endless amount Of
resource.
But it is his extraordinary marching
powers that astound the spectator. A
French regiment covers the ground at
wonderful speed and never seems to
tire. Fifty kilometers a day are at
times covered by French infantry, and
marches of 70 and more kilometers
are occasionally done. I speak, Of
course, of the troops of the line. The
"Chasseurs a pied" the famous wit
Tiers," are unique among the armies Of
Europe. What they can accomplish in
the way of marching no other troops
can pretend TO equal.

at Brienne-le-Chateau, l was one day

TO SAVE FISH SUPPLY
MOVEMENT TO PROTECT IMPoR-
TANT FOOD STAPLE.
Flnny Tribe in Inland Seas Has Been
Steadily DepIeted-Lack of Uni
form Laws Said to Be
the Cause.

Washington.-Uncle Sam is about to
inaugurate a battle to save the ma
tons food fish.
Already he has given the subject
much attention, and a department Of
fish hatcheries mas planted in waters
all over the country millions of spawn
and fingerlings.
But the new movement is to be
much more systematic. 1t viii make
the entire problem of fish supply one
for Washington to deal with AS a
preliminary, every state in the union
will be asked to cede its rights over
the principal rivers and lakes which
pass through the territory of the other
states.
Thus empowered the United States
government will be able to enact uni
form laws and have authority to COM
pei observance Of regulations that will
prevent the wholesale destruction Of
one Of the most important staples Of
our food
The preliminaries to the movement
were arranged a short time ago at the
meeting OF the American Fisheries So
ciety, which met in Erie, Pa, after
having made an extensive investiga-
ton of the fish problem on the Great
Lakes and their tributaries.
The society found that the once
teeming supply of fish in the great in
land sea is being steadily depleted un-
til to-day it is not so per cent. Of what
it was.

watching the troops marching into the

ment after regiment swung by looking
as if they were good for another so
kilOmeters, though they had been on
the move for II long hours. In front
of the marine, where the headquarters
of the army was established, Gen
Brugere and Gen. Chaffee were stand
ing with a half dozen officers of the
American mission. AS each regi-
ment swung around the corner the
men, as soon as they saw the Ameri-
can uniforms, seemed galvanized
Every man pulled himself up and
stepped out to show the foreign Wis
itors that there was still the old
French spirit left. They gave the last
coup de collier" and swept past with
a swing and vigOr astonishing in men
who all had something like so kilO-
meters behind them. An army that
can give this coup de collier" for the
honor of the flag has the true military
spirit.
The kaiser's sturdy infantry soldier
is, in my opinion, wanting in this alb
soIute pride in his profession. He
tramps on mile after mile with dog
ged perseverance, but without the
wonderful elastic, springy step of the
"pioupiou."
/ But where the French soldier eX-
cells the German soldier is in his re-
sourcefulness. He knows how to shift
for himself and is full of little tricks
for increasing his comfort, Of which
the more stolid German has no idea
For instance, the speed with which a
French regiment will get its coffee
ready on the maneuver ground looks
sometimes like legerdemain. l have
! been with French troops when it has
rained for three days increasingly, and
when there was not a piece of dry
wood for ten kilometers round. Yet
within a quarter of an hour of the
bugles sounding the halt the fires
if one gives a French soldier a piece
of meat and a handful of potatoes he
will turn out a rata which cannot be
beaten anywhere As according to
the Napo!eonic dictum "an army
marches on its belly" this is an i'm
portant trump in the hands of the
French.
In the matter of artillery I think
there can be nc two opinions. The
French possess the finest artillery of
any army on the continent, we'll
horsed and well commanded.
The German cavalry is excellently
mounted. and the men seem thorough
" trained The scouting and recon
noitering is carried out in good style,
the men moving over the country with
the greatest precaution and taking ad-
vantage of every bit of cover. The
horses are of good quality, and the
men are good, if not of frst-class or
der.
