1.-THE TOURISTS. ns

Good Comic Opera at the Hyperion.
 "The Tourists,' which paid it's sec-
 ond visit to the Hyperion last night, de- served a bigger house than it got, for

 the good points of the long liiSa shows back to the glorious "FloradofSs N The limits of the nowadays clearly des fined comic opera are so narrow that there is little chance for anything new
 except in the details. In general "The Tourists Is the good old comic opera;
 the scene is in gorgeous India; there is the funny man, two or three pairs of ardent lcsers; the court physician with his magic pills and, last and best of all, big chorus of pretty girls with dozen sets of stunning costumes and
 the ability to make things ring with the chorus of catchy song.
 But if the machinery is what has
 been long and favorably known, the lit- tie things, and they gre really the show. are new and clever Richard Golden is the star in the role of Timothy Todd,
 travelling as guardian to rich young American. He had uphill work to get things moving last night, He succeeded beautifullys and a house that for half
 the first act was anything but cordial soon warmed up in the warm sunlight of the queer and clever Richard. Eliz- abeth Spencer, Princess Chalulu, daugh-
 ter of the rajah is the best singer in
 the company. She has two very good songs. Georgia O'Ramey, as Julia Ju-
 lico an American newspaper correspon-
 dent, has 8 part for good acting. Her song and dance in the second act was
 one of the hits of the evening. But the chorus is the thing in comic opera.
 "The Tourist" must rest it's claim to fame upon the simple chorus. Being
 mindful of some of the lovely creatures
 in the first row, it must be admitted
 that '"The Tourists has a claim.

Apnroachina the Gar.

Supposing one of the cars minis
tiers demands an extra interview and
it does not please his majesty to
grant it, Peter Katoff, valet and trust
ed friend of three successive Rus
sian emperors, is sent to announce
the fact that his majesty is tired"
He rarely needs to ask the minis
ter what is his business, for there
are few of the emperor's letters and
kilograms he does not read. If, too,
it does not please the valet to an
nounce a visitor or. deliver a mes
sage, the emperor would be none the
wiser. To obtain an audience with
the cZar is next to an impossibilrty,
but there are exceptions
One gentleman relates how he went
to the palace in response to an invi-
tation from the emperor. After he
had been conducted from room to
room and carefully searched, he was
allowed, to his great surprise, to
speak to the emperor on the tele,
phone.

THE SIEGE OF. WASHINGTON.
European Nations Raise Salaries o.
Their Ambassadors.

Not with armies, not with warships,
but with that which will buy both
money-the nations of Europe are pre-
pairing their forces for the capture of
Washington. In 1893 Great Britain
raised the rank Of her envoy at Wash.
ington from minister to ambassador.
France and Germany did likewise the
same year, Russia in 1898, Italy in
1901 and Austria-Hungary in 1892.
Mexico, Brazil and Japan followed the
example of the European powers.
Increased rank requires better hous.
ing, and foreign nations have spent
much since 1898 in buying and build.
ing embassies at Washington for their
representatives. Some of these are
splendid enough to be worthy of rank.
ing with many of Europe's palaces.
It was then left for Great Britain to
discover that her ambassador ought to
be paid as much as the president of
the United States, and Mr.. Bryce is to
receive $4,000 year, $4,000 more
than his predecessor. AS in 1893 Ger.
many followed Britain's lead, so now
her ambassadors salary has been
raised $4,000. Undoubtedly the repre-.
sentatives of other nations have felt
the pinch of prosperity and would be
glad to receive an increase of salary.
The more money the embassies and
legations have to spend the better it
will be for the shopkeepers of Wash
ington. The diplomatic benefits ars
not so obvious.

of his singing the girl started, and
looked nervously round.
"Jim!" she murmured incredulous-
". Then, after moments hesitation,
rose and stealthily moved to a bench
directly in front of the clock.
He caught sight of the girl and
paused abruptly.
The girl was deliberately gazing in
a direction away from the clock, and
had assumed pose calculated to
show at once the lines of her figure,
and the abstraction of her mind.

washinotonians Not CURIOUS,

Very often in Washington during the
season there are elaborate weddings at
the fashionable churches. In other
cities, New York, for example, squads
of police have been detailed to keep
back the curious women who huddla
in front of the churches when these
notable weddings are scheduled, for
the purpose of catching view Of the
brides and bridesmaids Iaiment
Washington women don't go near
the churches at such times. There is
never any bother with crowds in front
of the churches. When the bride and
her women are in the very act of STEP
ping from their carriages at a big
wedding even the darkies on the street
scarcely pause to have look.
It isn't that rubbering is one of the
seven deadly sins in that town, any
more than it is anywhere else. They
simply don't care in Washington,

The notes Of popular song echoed
sentimentally through the big station
waiting room. With one accord the
respondent occupants of the benches
turned to look in the direction whence
it came. A young man had entered at
the south door and was making his
way across the floor. His clothes
were those Of the well-to-do mechanic;
over his shoulder was slung a canvas
bag of tools. Behind him came col
ored porter bearing a step ladder.
The young man paused beneath the

the dial. The hands pointed to nine

glanced round the room, then crossed
over to the full length mirror, which
hung on one of the walls. After a
critical survey of herself she opened
a satchel and drew out hand-glass
a comb and perforated chamois pow,

she combed to still greater height
her already exaggerated pompadour,
readjusted the angle of her hat, care
fully powdered her face and studied
in the hand-glass the result of her

pulled down her veil, returned the
toilet articles to the bag, and shut it
with a snap. She smoothed down her
jacket, hitched out of place by the
raising of her arms: and then, shout

alton of the fashionable gait, she
haughtily strolled to an empty bench
and seated herself.

Joke on Palmetto State.

Representative Adamson of Georgia
was rubbing it in on Representative
Johnson of South Carolina, and told
this story about the red hills of the
Palmetto state:
Why, Johnson, South Carolina land,
or most of it, is too poor to even raise
difficulty on. I heard of an old fel.
low over there who was greatly wor-
ried about his neighbours cattle get
ting into his pasture. His own cattle
didn't get half enough to keep thea
alive, and the old fellow didn't see
how he could afford to let his neigh.
boris cattle share 1t with them.
"The old man went to his neighbor
and made complaint. He said he was
not hunting trouble, but that his cat
tie must stay at home.
"'Neighbor,' was the reply, I am
sorry my cattle are worrying you and
l hate to see them die, but if you will
just let them stay in your pasture two
days they will starve to death. Just
put up the fence and keep them in and
they'll starve as sure as you live

There used to be told a comical
story about Judge who occasionally,
when off the bench, yielded to tempta-
ton and imbibed too freely for his own
good. The tale went on to tell that on
one occasion the worthy man having
dissipated to an extent regarded by
the Judge as scandalous, the offender
arraigned himself at the bar, where a
plea of guilty was entered and the jur.
ist imposed an exemplary fine upon
himself. There seems to have been
similar working of conscience down
in Mississippi, where grand jury in.
dicted every one of its own members
for violating the Sunday law, with the
result that the culprits were arraigned
In court and were fined $40 apiece
That grand jury certainly furnished
proof of sincerity when it gave up"
so readily.
