The Girl Question"

There is a snap, a dash, a life TO the
chorus girls and the musical numbers
of The Girl Question" which make
it the fastest play which has ever been
seen in even that home Of enormous
successes-the LaSallc Theatre, Chi
cago. 1t is play Of the same type as
The Time, The Place and The Cir"
written by the same authors, produced
under the same MANAGEMENT and by
the same stage director. and its re-
ceipts for the first two hundred per-
formances in Chicago exceed by some
few dollars those of The Time, The
Place and The Girl which, up to the
advent of The Girl Question set a
new record for theatrical productions
and long runs i'll Chicago. Gcnnett

Dream City"

Although he has good singing
eoice Johnny Johnson of the Dream
CITY, company prefers to reCite his
song, The Volunteer Fireman." be
cause he says it is more in keeping
with his character of the "Rube" chief
of the suburban fire-tightiug corps
His rendition of the song is one of the
most amusing features of the perfOr-
nance. Notwithstanding that it is all
uttered in the testing spirit of the play
there We're a few volunteer firemen
in some localities where Dream City"
has been produced who wrote serious
letters of objection TO Mr.. Johnson
and begged aim to cut out the song
saying it was serious reflection upon
the courage and abilities of volunteer
firemen in general. Gennett Jan. 10.

Mexico Is Ready for War

"Does the departure of Fredericc Gamboa, Mexican minister to Guate mals, from the capital of that republic mark the last step prior to severance of all diplomatic relations between the two countriesg" is the question that arouses the deepest public concern al Washington at this time.
 The Mexican government is not dis posed, it is said, to take any action that would "preeipitate overt acts of war" On the contrary, it is the pol. icy of President Diaz, according to the information of those in well-informed circles, to furnish nothing that might be construed as a easus bell. For the present the Mexican people do not see anything in the recent series of unpleas. ant incidents calling for more serious action than has already been taken, but their knowledge of the events lead ing immediately up to the departure of Minister Gamboa is limited.
 Both the administration and the peo- pie wish to maintain peace. They real ize there is little to be gained by war with the victory over Guatemala, and that hostilities would upset economic conditions just at a time when vast number of important fnan- eial operations are pending. Chief among the economic considerations that would be jeopardized is the govern ment s railway merger deal.
 At the same time Mexico is not in a mood to stand any foolishness or to overlook insults to her dignity by the ruler of an adjoining nation. If war at any time should become a necessity, Mexico will strike quickly and hard. That is the policy which President Diaz proclaims between his expressed hopes for continued peace.-Mexican cable dispatch in New York World.

Marriage and Divorce in the Smart Set satirically Treated and Wholesome Truths Arc Spoken in Brilliant Lines Mrs. Fiske Here Tomorrow Night.

I.angdon Mitchell 's play, "The New York Idea" !" which Mrs. Fiske is to do at Dreamland theater on tomorrow night, is said to contain surprising number of brilliant lines. In fact, the dialogue is rapid.fire of terse, collo- quial, thoroughly modern wit, with a mingling, too, of wholesome truths. They are not, it is said, forced epi- grams, but the natural outgrowth of the situations in the play. Most of the best lines strike satiricslly at the mat ter of marriage and divorce as viewed in the "smart" world which is the object of Mir. Mitchell s good-natured rail.ery. This matter of divorce, which is of vital importance in this country at present, is the serious underlying idea that gives Mir. Mitchell 8 play vitality and value. Here are some of the lines taken at random from differ ent acts of the play: "New York is bounded on the north, east, south and west by the state of divorce.

A Gamblers Chances

What little chance there is to beat Q professional gambler at his own game is the subject of demonstration now being carried on in room No. l20, Bible house, by John P. Quinn, reformed gambler. MT. Quinn was seen yester. day, and said that he gave up gambling nineteen years ago, and since then had spent his time in exposing crooked gambling. He is now at work organiz- ing an anti-gambling league, and has in this project the indorsement of many of the prominent clergymen of .. the city.
 Mir. Quinn has gambling instruments of all kinds, and not with one of them he says, has the player a chance to win against the game. All of his machines have won thousands of dollars for their former owners and were purchased by Mr. Quinn for his demonstrations. At cards and dice Mr. Quinn can easily win, and at the former can tell in a moment what is held by the other man. At the game of rouge ct noir, the favorite at most of the European gam. bling houses, he shows how the public is fieeeed by being able to turn up each time the color opposite to the one bet on. A roulette wheel, worked with an electric device, is one of the interesting exhibits. MT. Quinn says that this wheel won over $5o,0OO for its owner before it came into his possession.-- New York Tribune.

A THOUGHT FOR MEMORIAL DAY

In few days the war department will award the contract for 20,OOC marble headstones to mark the grave. of Confederate soldiers and sailors who died in Federal military prisons and hospitals during the Civil war, and who were buried near the place of con, fnement. A former South Carolina con. gressman, Colonel William Elliott, has been appointed by the government com. missioner to take charge of the work. The territory where the graves are lo- cated extends from the northern boun- diaries of the country as far south as Santa Fe, and the purpose is to identify the grave of every prisoner that can be located.
 The greatest idea connected with Me. morial day is that of nationality pre- served by people who move along the lines of destiny in patriotic devotion tO common country. More than half the armies of the Civil war have passed away, and, counting both armies, over 5O,OOO veterans year are vanishing from the muster rolls. Homage to the dead who acted their part bravely is a noble sentiment, and the soldiers who fell in the great struggle were as heroic as any in history. The great monument that has been reared is the United States, republic so much grander than any other that it stands in place of It's own. An undivided country recog- nizes all its sons when it puts the mar. ble tablets at the graves of the thou. sands of prisoners.-Gl Globe Democrat.

As we have received no more epistol ary communications from the blue "Blaek Hand," we take it that the incident is closed. If the lowdown scrub who has real or imaginary griev- anees against this paper or its editor will disguise himself as a man and come to this office with his grievance we may be able to treat him as though he were really man. But the chances are that he is only near-anarehist, one of those long-distance, spineless bad men, who haven't nerve enough to bat a mosquito without first taking a drink to get the required courage.

World s Biggest Bridge

Plans were filed yesterday by Vice President Samuel Req of the Pennsyl vania railroad for the steel viaduct and bridge that will connect the Long Isl and and Pennsylvania lines at the Long Island City terminus of the tunnel with the New York, New Haven & Hartford tracks, in the Bronx. It will be the longest and heaviest steel bridge in the world, S0,000 tons of steel being used in its construction.
 The plans for the bridge show steel arch span of 1000 feet between abut. ments. These abutments are monument tai stone towers, dividing the arch bridge proper from the steel viaduct that forms approaches to it. Granite at the base, nodded concrete above, tho towers will rise to n height of 200 feet and will contain rooms needed for rail road operation. The tracks themselves 40 feet above the water, will pas, through the steel arches that rise l5( feet higher Some of the steel member, will be nine feet in diameter and will weigh 100 tons each.
 Besides planning a bridge of ampl, strength, the company has endeavoret to make it thing of beauty.
 The huge arches will be created ir the same manner as the huge cantilevel bridge on Blackwell's Island. The ear rying capacity, it is said, will be twenty times greater than that of the Brook lyn bridge.-New York World.

The natural consequences of the ex. tortionate charges now made by the companies will be first, falling of in business, and second an act of congress regulating the rates of the companies and reducing them to point below that which they were at the beginning of the year.
