company this year is strong in every
particular and the repertoire of plays
is the best that money can secure. The
special vaudeville feature is the Os-
born children, Sophie and Gordon, two
little tots that nave made their reputa-
ton over the famous Orpheum vaude-
VILE circuit. They offer singing and
dancing specialists. and change at ev-
cry performance. The opening bill. "A
Royal Reception" or "Incog," is a
roaring farce written for Chas. Dick
son, and used by him for several sea-
sons as a starring vehicle. 1t is pure
ly farce comedy and provides an
evening Of laughter. Several special
ties are introduced during the action
Of the play. The play for Monday and
Tuesday is THE American Girl' and
it gives the Osborn children two prom
inent parts. 1t is a story of today told
in plain American way. The COM
edy element predominates but there is
a strong thread of heart interest and
| several sensational climaxes. Special
scenery and effects adds to the produc-
| ton.

Civil war in Montenegro.

Vienna, April 30.-Civil war is rag
ing in Montenegro. Tired of the tyran-
ny and opposition of Prince Nicholas, a
revolt having for its purpose his over
throw is we'll under way. There has
been much bloodshed already and more
is expected. Already the government
has been driven TO the necessity OF pro-
claiming q military regime.
CetlsDje, Nicholas capital, is threat
ened by the revolutionists who have dis
patched armed bands to capture the
city. At least one pitched battle has
been fought, the rebels and loyalists
having INDUCED in severe street fight
ing at Podgoritza, with considerable loss
of life.
Three of the most powerful mountain
clans are leading the revolutionary move
ment.
Every dispatch shows that the situa-
lion is becoming more serious for the
government and the overthrow of Mich
olas's authority seems imminent.
Cettinje, Montenegro, April 80. 49,
General J. Martinovitch, governor of
Podgoritza, and Chief of Police Kasi-
woda have beed shot and MORALLY
wounded by an ensign. Their assassin
was killed.

Douma Saved from Dissolution.

St. Petersburg, April 30.--By accept
ing today the bill of the government
providing for the summOning of recruits,
the Douma has probably saved Itself
from the dissolution which threatened it
last night after the savage attack on the
army and the administration by a So
cialist member in discussing the measure.
When NJ. ZurabOf, a socialist orator,
declared that under an autocratic regime
the army WAS worthless, except against
the people, and was beaten whenever il
encountered foreign foe, the ministers
withdrew from the House.
1t was greatly feared the Gar would
at once dissolve the Douma, as several
of the socialist manifested their intention
of upholding ZubaroPs declaration.
Realizing that the existence Of the as
sembly was at stake, moderate leaders
today saw that the debate did not take the
violent form of yesterday. The bill was
adopted and ii is believed the Zubaroif
incident will now be overlooked.
The vote on the recruits bill htO0d
1876 to 124 for its adoption.

The Baroness de Massey Case.

New York, April SO.--When court
opens today Justice Blanchard will de-
eide whether or not he will order mis-
trial Ia the case of Baroness Amisia de
Massey On trial for the murder of Gustav
Simon. Misdirected zeal on the part of
a juror abruptly ended the proceedings
in the case last evening and adjournment
was taken until today, when the justice
will decide the issue. 1t is within the
province of the court to declare mis-
trial on the ground that the Juror, al
though impelled By the best motives,
sought evidence for himself outside Of
the presence and hearing of the woman
who is being tried for her life.

VIII not Discuss Disarmament,

Berlin, April SO.--The positive aud
emphatic declaration of Prince yon Bue-
low in the Reichsrsth today, that Ger
many will not participate in discus
sion of the question of the disarmament
at the coming Hague conference, prob
ably excludes finally the consideration
of this subject at the international con-
gress. If Germany will not take part
in a discussion, or 10 be bound by any
decision reached, 1t is useless for other
powers to consider it.
Speaking upon Germany's foreign
STAIRS, the Chancellor made it plain
thatGermany stands for great armamants
and will not consent to any limitation
being placed upon her martial strength.
II the other powers choose TO discuss
disaramant, it is their affair, but Ger.
many repudlstes all connection with the
idea. The outburst of applause which
the anti-disarmament declaration WAS
received showed that the deputies will
support The government vigorously in
its stand
