GILMORE MADE A HIT.
Topeka Liked Him and His New Play,
AT Yale"

"At Yale in which Mr.. Paul Gill
more made a personal hit on the local
stage last evening, is truly a college
play, with college atmosphere, and
plenty of action, color and interest.
Although Mr.. Gilmore has been COM
ing to Topeka for years. and notwith-
standing he has many personal friends
in Topeka who are loyal admirers on
account of his thoroughly likeable
.chara cteristics as we'll as of his talent
as an actor, the local playgoing pub
lie generally has shown an indiffer-
ence to his visits unexplainable and
surprising. But at his performance
last night the Grand was practically
sold out, a considerable achievement
in itself when the state of the weather
is taken into consideration. And. judg-
ing from the enthusiasm and applause
with which the star was greeted, it is
safe to say that capacity audiences
will be the rule on Mr.. Gilmore's fu-
ture visits.
Mr.. Gilmore has staged cat Yale"
with particular care and attention to
detail. Especially good is the setting
for the first act, showing suite of
rooms of two college chums at Yale.
The piece starts off well, and friend

tween players and audience that keeps
up till the end.
Mr. Gilmore has made wonderful
advancement along vocal lines since
last seen here a season ago. His song,
You, My YOU" in the first act last
night was one of the most pleasing
things of that character heard on the
local stage this season. Years ago,
when Mr.. Gilmore was playing swash-
buckling romantic parts, no one had
plays were so full of deeds of valor
that there was no room for songs.
Later. in the John Drew plays, there
was likewise no room for songs. and
his regular clientele was surprised
last season when he introduced a song
in Captain Debonaire." 1t was new
and pleasing phase of his many-sided
versatility. But again this year, in
his college play. Mr.. Gilmore sings
two songs written specially for him,
called "You, My YOU" and Loves
Young Dream" of which too much
may hardly be said. Mr.. Gilmore an
nounces that he will use "At Yale

surprising to hear of him next in
big musical production.

and practically written by Mr.. Gilmore,
although credit for its writing is given
to owen Davis. In it Mr.. Gilmore has
sought to paint college life for the
eral weeks among the college boys at
Yale. and made notes of their charac-
teristic daily life, of their slang. and
their conversation, which he has in
terpolated into the play thereby CIV

In some respects AT Yale" and

time has come for the revision of some
of the tariff schedules, but at the
hands of the friends of the protective
principle. Those economic conditions
which permit the steel kings and the
lumber kings to roll up billion dollar
fortunes at the expense of the people
are not right. The next few years will
see Il great financial readjustment
which will prevent the formation of
such trusts. If elected l shall stand
for government regulation of railroad
corporations as advocated by Presi-

for Congress

D. r. Anthony of Leavenworth, the

made arrangements with the executive
committee of the Republican county
central committee for the congress
sionaI primary to be held March %.
Incidentally. Mr. Anthony shows the
following letter from John s. Hopkins
of Holton, which settles the question
of Hopkins candidacy for the office
of congressman:
Having learned this day thau all
prospective candidates for congress
sional honors have quietly and judi
ciously withdrawn. / no longer wish to
oppose your nomination as candidate
for member of congress from the First
district of the state of Kansas and 1
look forward not only to your nominal
whelming majority. Truly yours, John
8. Hopkins
Although there is no opposition
whatever to Anthony, the congression-
al primary will be held in a perfume
tory and formal manner throughout
the district. There will be as few vot-
ing places as possible in each county,
IN order to save expense.
Speaking Of the principles he wishes
TO represent in congress, he said:
Il am a Republican and if elected
TO congress / shall vote for all matters
that will continue those grand and
glorious principles of the Republican
party which have made this country

Madrid, March 22.-It is stated here
that the consent of the pope to off,

This annoyed the king and it was to
