EXPRESSION OF GRATITUDE.
Equal Suffrage Association Pleased
With Star Editorial.

At meeting of the Equal Suffrage AS
ISOLATION of the District Of Columbia. held
November Is. in the new Metropolitan
Bank building In this city, a resolution
was unanimously adopted expressing its
high appreciation of the editorial in The
Sunday Star of November "a commend
ing the diginf1ed course which the woman
suffragists have pursued in the United
States and the arguments presented by
them at congressional hearings" The
thanks of the association were rendered
The Star, which has always treated
their cause with great consideration"
That the association, by the foregoing
resolution, does not intend to indorse any
criticism Of the methods pursued by the
women in Great Britain resulting in ar
rest and Imprisonment Of some Of their
workers. knowing that In many instances
reports have been highly exaggerated.
That they have faith that the justice
of protecting women in the right to vote
will be recognized in this country and the
laws necessary for such protection enact
ed in response to appeals to reason.
Nevertheless, they remember that
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, one of the
women commended by The Star has said
there was never a great revolution with
out bloodshed. and that Susan B. An
thony, the other woman so commended,
was arrested, tried in a criminal court
and found guilty. Of illegal voting, and
should the demands of today be continu-
ally treated with contempt, evidenced by
neglect, broken promises or vain words Of
fiattery, the time may come when some
aggressive action may be necessary In
order to stimulate the social conscience
of the lawmakers Of the United States
The association extends a greeting to
Mrs. Anne Golden Sanderson, the brave
English woman who Is now in this coun-

Belasco.

Clara Bloodgood, In 1.-The Truth" play
written for her by Clyde Fitch. last even
ing at the Belasco gave persuasive and
plausibly impulsive Interpretation Of
Becky Warder before a large and appre-
ciative audience.
Mr. Fitch provides in the play. which
is one of the cleverest he has written,
character sufficiently individualized to
have personal interest. and yet SO gen.
eral as to have wide appreciation. Few
Of the garnishers OF the truth are as
free from malice as is Becky. and prob
ably few deserve the sympathy which she
merits, and the satisfaction which every
one feels that experience cures her love
of invention and fortune returns her to a
trusting husband. Mrs. Bloodgpod adds
spirit and a touch of piquancy to the
character that quite relieves situation
just a trihe over dfdactic. She makes
entirely probable the tissue Of meaningless
lies which the usual degree Of feminine
vanity. mischief, bit of daring, and an
artistic sense of dressing things up a
little, suggest to her. The consequent
pain and punishment of a complete loss
Of faith are given with intuition and re-
serve. The whole Improvisation Is very
human and very lovable.
William Courtenay, we'll known In
Washington from summer stock COM
pany successes makes CreQilaDie the COn-
plete love of Becky. and presents the
gradations of Toms faith and doubt
with humor and an appreciation Of transit
tons. The broad comedy element is fur
nished by Zelda Sears in Genevieve
Crlspigny. whose knowledge Of the char
acter of Becky's father and admira-
tion for his swell faults is made comic
without undue exaggeration. John Emer-
son does some clever Characterization as
the original liar. from whom Becky in

New Academy.

: Bertha, the Sewing Machine Girl" a
thrilling melodrama In four acts and
twelve scenes. from the pen of Theodore
Kremer. was greeted by a large and en-
thusiastic audience at the Academy OF
Music last evening The play introduces
a phase of New York life, showing the
good and bad characters. as well as many
interesting and exciting scenes, some OF
which are realistic in the extreme.
The plot Of the play concerns the life of
a young girl who is prosecuted by man
who is acquainted with her financial af-
fairs. and who is determined to gain pos
session of her fortune through villainy.
Miss Blanche Shirley, as Bertha, the sew
ing machine girl played her part well.
Maude Bancroft. as Jessie. the blind sis
ter, and Addie St. Alva. as Mrs. Katrina
Katzenkopf. the boarding house keeper,
did some clever work. Frederic Clayton
portrays the role of Tom Jennings. the
hero. Miss Shirley is supported by
large cast.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE
CHANCELLOR OF CUBAN LEGA-
TON INHALED GAS

Senior don Rogelio Bombalier. chan
cellor of the Cuban legation. made an ef-
fort last night to end his life by turning
on the gas He was found in an uncon-
scious condition in his apartments at the
Douglass, 1910 N street northwest.
shortly before 8 o'clock. Mrs. Matte E.
BoyntZ, who occupies the adjoining
apartment, detected the odor Of gas when
she reached the third landing last night.
and proceeded to make an investigation.
She thought some occupant of an apart
menr had accidentally left the gas turned
on and had gone away without discover
Ing his mistake. Investigation showed
that the gas was pouring from the room
of the diplomat, and Mrs. Boyntz knocked
on his door. Receiving no response. she
opened the door. 1t was almost impossi-
BILE for her to enter the apartment, as the
gas was pouring from four open jets, but
she saw the unconscious form of the
Cuban stretched upon the bed. The
police of the second precinct were noti-
fed. and Policeman Jordan had the ap-
parently dying man hurried to the Home
opathic Hospital.
A note that Senior Bombalier had writ
ten and left in his room was taken to the
police station. 1t was In Spanish and
was translated by an attache of the lega-
ton to read:
Good-bye, everybody. L am gong 10
leave this world because l have not the
courage to endure it."
Senior Bonbalier is about twenty-five
years of age. He was popular among his
fellow-countrymen and others in diplo
matte service. The first secretary of the
Cuban legation called at the Homeopathic
Hospital last night to see the patient. He
remained there until he was assured that
the young man was out OF danger. and
then went to the police station and trans-
lated the message. 1t was said at the
hospital this morning that the patient
will probably be able to leave the hospital
tomorrow. 1t is stated that Senior Bonn
balier had been brooding over an Incl
dent which occurred while he was occu-
plying an apartment at 14th and l.
streets. He had been mortified by an in
discretion alleged against him.

SUICIDE OF G. W. scHM1DLE.
Relatives Convey Remains to Clin-
tondale, N. Y.

Relatives of Charles W. Schmidle, the
Clintondale IN. " man who committed
suicide in Lafayette Square at an early
hour yesterday morning by shooting him
self in the head are unable to assign a
cause for his act. Mrs. Schmidle, Mrs
w. Michaelis, sister of the deceased, and
nephew reached here last night about
1880 o'clock, and visited Lieut.. Peck at
police headquarters. They were anxious
to learn something about the conduct OF
Schmidle after he reached this city last
Friday afternoon.
It was stated by relatives of the de-
ceased that he left his farm at Clinton
dale last week with the intention of going
intention to come to this city. and Mrs.
Schmidle was surprised and shocked when
she received the message from the police
telling Of her husbands death. Mr..
sehmidle was farmer, who made spe-
cialty of growing fruit. 1t seems that
he went away from home unexpectedly,
neglecting to notify his wife until he had
reached New York city.
Schmidle sent letter to his wife from
New York. but he gave no intimation OF
an intention to end his life. He merely
told Of his trip to New York and asked
that his wife see to the feeding OF the
stock. The $75 the New Yorker sent his
wife by money order had not reached
here
1--WE are Just as much In the dark about
the suicide as anybody else" the nephew
remarked. to a Star reporter. HE had
never given an intimation of an intention
to take his life. and all we can imagine
is that he lost his money on the races,
and brooded over his loss until he killed
himself,
The nephew stated that there was no
reason in the world why Mr.. Schmidle
should have killed himself. He was q
prosperous fruit grower, owned real es-
tate, and had money in bank. If he had
needed money. the nephew stated. he
could have obtained what he wanted In
New York. Acting Coroner Glazebrook
made an investigation of the occurrence
yesterday. He concluded that Schm!dle
had committed suicide, and gave certifi-
cate accordingly.
Undertakes removed the body from
the morgue last night and prepared It
for burial Mrs. Sehmidle and the two
relatives who came here with her visited
the morgue last night and saw the body,
afterward arranging with the under
takers to have the remains prepared for
shipment. They left here on the IL
o clock train this morning, accompanying
the remains to Clintondale. Schmidle was
forty-five years Of age. -

THE Dairymaids." as seen at the Co.
lumbia Theater last evening is essentially
British in conception. For briskness 1t de-
ponds largely on the Interpolation of sew
erai typically American songs. The slen-
der plot is assisted by liberal quota
of song numbers, and by comedy intro
duced independently of the story.
The plot of THE Dairymaids" can be
briefly told. Lady Brudenell has a model
dairy farm at Hindstead, which is visited
by a party of naval men, among whom
are her two nephews. in love with two Of
the fashionable dairymaids. an Irish doc
tor. and his irrepressible seaman-servant
The visit Is against Lady Brudenells
wishes, bringing about complications
which result in the two principal dairy
maids being sent back to boarding school,
where they are visited by the nephews
and the doctors servant, disguised as
prospective girl students. The opportuni-
ties for burlesque offered in the scene in
feminine characters are not overlooked.
On the contrary the scene Is handled with
a heavy hand. and last night produced all
the laughs" it contained, legitimate and
otherwise.
Mr.. Frohman has given the production
a dainty setting. and provided a cast OF
well-known players. Paul A. Rubens and
Frank A. Tours are mainly accredited
with the music. which for the most part
is lifting and possessive Of distinct charm.
The original composers are aided by a
number of others, whose various songs are
interpolated throughout the piece.
Huntley Wright, who carried the main
comedy burden in his impersonation Of the
sailor servant, sang his several good num-
bers excellently. and at times was legit-
mately funny. Edgar Atchison Ely contri-
buted material. some of which could we'll be
dispensed with. The Irish naval doctor
of Eugene O'Rourke is good bit of quiet
comedy. Hazel Neason, who is playing
Julia Sanderson's part of Peggy during
the latter.s illness. is graceful and pleas
ing; Bessie Devote scored in her one song
and dance; Frieda Wiegold displayed an
excellent soprano voice in one of the
catchiest numbers, and Flossie Hope, as
the maid Eliza, was we'll received.
