Sends Roses to Her by Her Hus-

State Official.

The President this morning selected
two OF the haHdsOmest roses in the vase
upon his desk, and sent them TO q
mother of eleven children IN Arkansas.
Mrs. o. c. Ludwig. wife OF the score

Mr.. Ludwig called at the White House

Gas Bills Will Pass.

Representative Smith, chairman
Of the District of Columbia Commit
tee of the House. has assured mem
beers of that committee that az the
very earliest opportunity he viii
call up both the pending measures
relating to the gas supply of Wash
ington. He has small doubt that
opportunity viii present in the near
future.
The people of Washington may
suffer by reason of the tilibuster
which Is being carried on in the
House. But for this situation these
bills would certainly have been
passed by that body before the
present time. and the prospect Of
getting action on them in the Sen
ate would be much better than il is.
There is probably less than two
weeks left Of the session, and it will
require every insistence on the part
of the friends of the legislation to
secure its passage. Nothing more
effective can be done than personal
appeal to Senator's and Representa-
tives who are in position of infu-
ence OF control.
Whether the exigencies of the
last hours of the session will make
it impossible TO pass both the pend
ing gas measures or not, there IS
every reason why the utmost effort
should be put forth in their behalf,
because of the effect at the next
session. Congress viii be back in
Washington in six months from the
time it leaves, beginning another
session; and whatever is accom-
plished now viii be alive then, when
action is pretty certain.
The two bills now reported by the
House committee are. first. the one
repeating the capitalization section
of the law of june g, 1896. under
which the gas companies are under
taking to increase their capital
stock; and, second. the one fixing
90 cents as the maximum price for
gas. OF these, the 9O-cent gas bill
probably has the best chance of be-
coming law at this session. There
is evidence of a strong disposition
to do something for the people of
Washington in regard to the price
of gas. The presentation of figures
concerning prices in Washington
and other cities has been effective
and telling, and has done much to
convince legislators that Washing
ton is imposed upon IN this regard

the lesser of these governments

That this is due chiefly TO the ex-
istence of such bureau is not con
tended But that it depends con

government. and that the Bureau Of
American Republics has been a fac
tor in the development Of such sta
bility cannot be questioned And, as
more than one speaker of yesterday
indicated, the opportunity now
opening before the nations which
lie south Of the Rio Grande, an op-
portunity secured in almost precise

a development in the next genera

have its offices is regarded as a tenn

QUAINT FRENCH PLAY
PRESENTED BY STANDING
The Cast.

In the quaint seventeenth century
comedy. "a Marriage OF Convenience,
Guy Standing and hIs stock company
entered upon the second week OF their
summer engagement at the Belasco last
night. before a large and highly sp-
preclatiye audience.
The play deals with q marriage ar
ranged between the Count de Candale
played by Mr.. Standing, and his young
provincial cousin. the marriage being
contaminated without the consent OF
either OF the principals. The develop
ment of the plot concerns the manner
in which Candale falls In love with his
Wife, and wins her affections The lines
are clever and the situations are enter

When MT Standing made his first
entrance upon the stage many OF his
admirers In the audience failed at first

the popular actor presented a facial
appearance entirely different from any
that had characterized any OF his nu-
merous previous engagements in this
city.
Not that the elaborate costume or
makeup that Mr.. Standing wore caused

Of the most satisfactory the company

Musical history states that this opera
o-ss the last work or the celebrated
composer Ofenbach and its production
many years ago in various European
cl+ies had almost been forgotten until
the Manhattan opera Company IN Ne"
York revived it last year. 1t has no"
been translated into English and the
version used by the Aborn company
suppIies spoken dialogue for much OF
the score. This is a happy departure
for the purposes OF the company ana
makes the performance more enjoyaole

evening Of music.
