ROSELLE KNOTS TALENTED
COMPANY.

Roselle Knott who apearS at the
Keylor Grand, March 25, in "Alice-Sit-
y-the-Fire," has in her support a
company of exceptional ability. Among
those in the cast is Mr.. Eric Blind, the
noted English actor, who for several
seasons was the leading support Of
Sir Henry Irving, the dean of the
English stage. Mr.. Blind came to this
country to play special engagement
at the James K. Hackett theater in
New York city, and his ability being
readily identified he was induced to
remain, several managers bidding for
than ordinary ability and his work
as the colonel in the new Barrie play Is
really of the brilliant kind. Robinson
Newbold, another Of Miss Knots COM
pany, is a tenor of more than average
ability, and he alternates his seasons
between dramatic comedy and musical
comedy, always with splendid success.
Mr.. Newbold has been with such at
fractions as 1.-THE Chinese Honeymoon"
1.-THE Princess Beggar," and similar
attractions. He has always filled lead
ing roles and has in the "Alice- Sit-by-
the Fire. splendid part. Miss Grace
Gibbons, one of the ladies supporting
Miss Knott, is one of the best players
of female juvenile parts on the stage
today. She has for several seasons
supported Blanche Walsh in her pre-
tentious productions and had a promi-
nent part in Miss Walsh's 1.-THE Woman
in the Case"

MR.. ROCKEFELLER MONEY.

FREQUENT disposition has been re-
Gently made of Mr.. Rockefeller's for
tune. The disposers thereof who are
so lavishly giving away his millions
say they are in a position to know
what they are talking about, including,
as they do, members Of young Mr..
Rockefeller's Bible class, intimate
friends of men who are acquainted
with Mr. Rockefeller, and reliable
gentlemen who have had revelation
in a normal and satisfactory way. The
wealth thus distributed ranges from
s5O,OOO,O 900 to s5OO,OO0,0O0. and enriches
and gladdens many regions.
Without questioning the good faith
of the men who are disposing of Mr.
Rockefeller's estate, it might be sug-
gested that perhaps it would facilitate
and strengthen matters if Mr.. Rock
efeller could be induced to express an
opinion in the premises. A personal
statement from the gentleman, who
possibly is ignorant of all that is be-
ing, or going to be, accomplished IN
his name and with his money, would
carry with it an air of conviction that
in feeting moments of doubt and de-
preston is now lacking. 1t may be
that, despite these renewed assurances
of close friends and trusted adviser,
Mr.. Rockefeller ha not fully made up
his mind as to the precise nature OF his
future benefactions, and is still unde-
cided, notwithstanding the great help
he gets from perusal of the daily pa
perS.
The christianizatiOn of China would
be an exploit we'll worthy of Mr.. Rock
eteller's mettle and metal. although
5O,OOO,00O would not go far among
400, 900, 600 people. Still, it would be an
excellent start. and will be commend
ed in due form and with proper cere-
mony when Mr.. Rosckefeller announces
his plans. The millions of dollars which
are now so freely distributed in the
papers for general education and en-
lightenment will be accepted, and thanks
expressed, just as soon as
it is learned from Mr.. Rockefeller that
ne is sufficiently interested in the mat
ter to give it his personal attention and
approval. One would like to be as
sured by him that $50,000.O0O is to
be handed over to the city of New York
FOR the encouragement of charitable
endeavor, and that $25O,0OO,00O is to be
given elsewhere for various purposes.
Perhaps it would be as well for the
lewspap ers and the men who say they
ire in Mr.. Rockefellers confidence to |
ct him dispose of his own money in !
lis own way at his own convenience. |!
t is not improper to suggest to him |
What he ought to do with it-no doubt !
lie has had thousands of plans pressed |
IpOn him-but his donations or be- |
quests should not be made for him by |
people who have no control over his |
possessions.

1.-THE RAGGED MESSENGER"

A great artist, splendid supporting
company, and genuinely interesting
play are what local theatregoers will
see next Tuesday, March 26 when
Creston Clarke and his Incompatible
company will present, 1.-The Ragged
Messenger at the Keylor Grand thea
ter. The play deals broadly with great
truths. The old, old problem of the
comparative moral standards of men
and women is worked out upon en-
tirely new lines. From the quiet, al
most prosaic existence of THE Ragged
Messenger the Rev. John Morton
(Creston Clarke), is swept suddenly
into the very vortex of the maelstrom
of human passions and frailties. He is
left to sink or swim by the life line Of
his own creed. The struggle of the
with a rich and dissolute
man of the world for the guidance of
a straying soul, and his ultimate vic
tory just when defeat seems most GER
tain, are depicted with realism never
before shown upon the stage. The in
tensity of this new play is terrific. Its
great success is not to be wondered at.

ADJUSTMENTS
COHAN'S GREAT PLAY TONIGHT.

One of the most notable theatrical
entertainments booked for the present
season in this city is Geo. M. Cohan's
fascinating musical play 'Forty-Five
Minutes from Broadway" which comes
to the Keylor Grand theater tonight
with Corinne as the star supported by
a noteworthy company under the di-
rection of Klaw & Erlanger. The play
has enjoyed unusual success since its
first production over a year ago, its
run of 20 weeks in New York and 30
weeks in Chicago having proved i'm
mensely profitable to its managers.
This piece is a novelty, and consists
of comedy drama, burlesque, melodra-
ma and musical comedy most cleverly
intermiXed in an interesting story pos
sessed of an unusual degree of novelty.
In his selection of characters and in
the originality of situations, Mr.. Co.
han has shown the same genius for
getting together novelty and surprises
that was noticeable in his popular
