BRIDGE WHIST CRAZE
SUMNER COLONY AT NEWPORT

Newport, r. Newport has the
bridge whist craze. SO has Narragan.

Newport that the epidemic is most
virulent.
Here pursuit of the game has be-

are won and lost every day at the
tables. Women in most instances are
the most inveterate of the gamblers.
The flushed face of the woman gam.
bier can be seen daily in carriages that
flash along Bellevue avenue. Her ner.
vous, eager manner betrays her. At
ordinary social functions she waits pa.
tiently for the outsiders to depart in
order that the elect few may creep
away to the boudoir of the hostess for
an hour at bridge.
Bridge is not tho only game. More
than one splendid villa here now con
ceals a dainty roulette wheel and
private faro layout for the delectatlon
Of the elect.
To such an extent has the passion
for play gone that some of the older
heads are seriously discussing the or
ganization of an anti-gambllng crusade.
The effect of gambling on the nerves
of some women in the younger set, as
well as on their pocketbooks, is Gre

Wilton Lackaye.

When Wilton Lackaye comes to the Acad
envy of Music, Baltimore, next week in his
new play, The Law and the Man," which
has been adapted from Victor Hugo's epoch
making masterpiece, Lies Miserables," Local
play patrons are assured of dramatic treat
MIR. Lackaye will be seen in the role of the
much prosecuted, bounded and phianthropic
Jean Vatican. His direct antithesis, Javert,
the Inspector of Police, who has no con-
science save duty, and whose every act is
governed by one thought, sit Is the law" is
played by that excellent actor, Melbourne
Mcdowell. The scenes between these two
characters are terrific in their dramatic IN
tensity, and both star and leading man have
brought into their portrayal all the wealth OF
their long stage experience.
In his work of adaptation Mr.. Lackaye has
followed the story very closely, and much OF
the dialogue is Hugo's own. There are many
'big scenes'' in the piece, the first of which
is the home of Bishop Welcome in Diton; next
the rescue of Famine by the Mayor of Meme,
the finding of Cosette, the capture and escape
of Vatican from the garnet of the Thenardlers,
and the beautiful denouement.
One of the most ideaistic of love stories
runs through the entire action OF the piece,
that of Cosette and Marus. Here the spec
tator sees the gentler and better part OF the
great French novelist, dramatist and poet, for
it is we'll known that the characters of Cosette
and Marius are supposed to be those OF Hugo
himself and his early love, to whom he wrote
those marvellous love letters.
Irrespective of creed and denomination, the
clergy throughout the world have lauded the
religious sentiment expressed in the character
of Jean Vatican, and more than one man of
the cloth has said: sit is more powerful than
any sermon ever preached, for it shows the
uplifting, ennobling and refining influence of
the Christian religion"
On the other hand the State has found much
TO commend in the work of Hugo, for it
teaches beyond cavil one precept, 'Obey the
law"
William A. Brady has been fortunate in
securing the services of Melbourne MacDowel
to play Javert the Police Inspector, Jeffreys
Lewis for Nine. Thenardier. Frank Harris for
her rat like husband, and William Lamp for
the part of Marius.

The velt-Harriman Contro-
verSy.

A controversy of huge proportions Is
now on between President Roosevelt and
Mr.. E. H. Hartman the railroad magnate,
in regard to the contributions to the Re-
publican campaign fund in the Presidential
campaign of 1904. Mr.. Hartman asserts
that just before the election of that year,
President Roosevelt sent for him to come
to the White House; told him of the alb
solute necessity for money to replenish the
treasury of the Republican National Com
mittee, and requested him to take the
matter in hand and raise some money for
them.
Mr.. Hartman states that he went back
to New York and told his financial friends,
who had not before been disposed to con
tribute to Mr.. Roosevelt's election, that
he had been to Washington and that he
thought Mr.. Roosevelt had learned some
thing, and that he would not be dangerous
to their interests. He then secured $500, :
600. of which he contributed himself
$4,000, and the money was turned over
to Mr.. Bliss, who was treasurer OF the
Republican Committee, and that Mr.
Roosevelt knew that all this was being
done
President Roosevelt in vigorous terms
denounces Mr.. Hartman, and declares that
the whole thing is untrue, and should be
characterized by a stronger and shorter
word.
1t will be remembered that just before
the election of 1904, Judge Parker, who
was then the Democratic candidate against
Mr.. Roosevelt came out in statement,
the facts of which he said he knew to be
true. that the Trusts and Corporations
we're being used by the Republican party
to swell their campaign fund, and that
very large sums of money were put into
their treasury in that way.
1t will also be remembered that MIR.
Roosevelt came out Immediately and denied
the whole thing, and denounced Judge
Parker for making such statement.
Mr.. Roosevelt's reply, however, was
not of that calm sort that a man usually
makes when he feels the ground is solid
under him, but was rather Of the strenu-
GUS, clustering kind, that by its clatter
and assumpti II of injured virtue and hon
esty, makes one feel that man adopting
that method is not quite sure of his posi-
ton. But the election came and Judge
Parker was defeated and Mr.. Roosevelt
was elected, and everything was lovely in
the Republican camp. Subsequently
committee was appointed by the New
York legislature to investigate some of
these great corporations, and the fact was
disclosed that what Judge Parker had
charged was exactly true, and that the
President had been the beneficiary of these
corporate contributions. And now Mr..
Hartman adds his contribution to this
piece of ugly history, and Mr.. Roosevelt,
Just as he did in the case of Judge Parker,
says in substance and in fact, dts lie.'
And so let the merry dance go on, and
the people will learn something they did
not know before.

The Baltimore Primaries.

The primaries in the Democratic party
in Baltimore city resulted in the nomina-
ton of Mr.. j. Barry Mahool for Mayor,
George N. Numsen for President of the
second branch of the City Council, and
Harry J. Hooper for Comptroller, by ma
jorities that were decisive. There was
great interest manifested in the primaries
and large vote polled.
Besides Mr.. Mahool, who was supported
by the Democratic organization, Senator
Linthicum and Mr. George Stewart Brown
were candidates and each conducted Wig
orous campaign.
Now that the party has spoken and Mr..
Mahool is the candidate, Mr.. Linthicum
and Mr.. Brown, like good loyal Democrats,
have rendered their services and support
to Mr.. Mahool.
So that the Democratic party has not
for years been in better shape in Balti-
more, and it is safe to predict that it will
carry the city by large majority at the
Mayoralty election on May 18th, next.
Great credit is due, we think, to Ex-
Governor Frank Brown for the active and
intelligent part he took in the recent pri-
mary contest.
The Republican primaries resulted in
the selection of Mayor Tmanus over Ex-
Congressman Frank G. Wachter, who is
greatly disappointed at his defeat. After
the May election Mayor Timanus will be
in condition to sympathize with him.
