The act was 3 continu- ous start of surprise from beginning t0 end and the house was held in a constant round of applause and laughter. for Pauline combines mirth with all his feats of scientific skill. Some of the ridiculous actions which he caused his nine subjects of last evening to perform caused screams of laughter to be heard throughout the house.

Columbia. S. C., April 1.-Senator Tfllmsn was asked at his home at Trenton: Senator. what do you think of Bryan's chances for nomination ?'' He replied: If the Republicans nomi- nate Taft I think that the Democrats win nominate Bryan and that he will win. Howeer, should the Republic ans tie their convention up in a dead lock and stampede 1t with Roosevelt do not think that we could nominate Bryan. because he has praised the presidents policies too much. Third termlsm would be his only weapon"

ROBERT MANTELL

To no other class of the general public does Mr Mantell make surer appeal than to the teachers and pu- Dis Of the public schols. This is equally true wherever he appears. Yet, he does not, in the slang of the day, 'go after" that sort of busi- ness. His attitude is explained by the fact that he has never approved of the methods by which Ben Greet, when touring this coun,ry, sought to make capital for his so-called "Shakespeare' plays as Shakespeare wrote them" enterprise by pleading that he was aiming to give the school children treat. With no scenery to carry, with a company made up of cheap English brown cial actors, and with none of the or- dinary legItima,e expenses of the atrical enterprise of the scope of MT Mantell's, Greet was able, by thus wheedling the children, to turn handsome profit on very small out lay, and for very bad performances. Two years of experiment with mat inee bills from the big Mantel rep ertoire has shown that The Mer- chant of Venice" and Macbeth are the most attractive for the little folks, Both plays are generally in use in the schools, and, so, there is natural desire on the part of the pupils and teachers alike to see the great characters realized in the ac- tlon of the theater. MT Mantell will be seen at Polls on Friday evening in King Lear," on Saturday after noon in ''The Merchant of Venice and on Saturday night in Macbeth" Seat sale Thursday morning. Prices, matinee 25c to $1; evening, 25c to $50. Telephone 1884.

"THE LAND OF NOD.'

It does no. seem possible t) ortl- estimate the high character of the production of the musical comedy,
 The Land of Nod which will be presented at Poli S Monday, April 6, matinee and night. This bril- liant spectacle has never been pre- sented here, but all who have wit messed it never cease to extol it's numerous distinctive charms and re- l fer to 1t as one of the thoroughly | enjoyable entertainments that have | been presented in this country. It is a production which is generally | regarded as the most beautiful, com plete and altogether satisfying that has been devised in the line of mu- sical extravaganza. The comedy is delightfully."- original and there is plenty of it, and the music, of which there is an abundance, is of a kind which fingers long in the memory by reason of its sweet mel ody and of it's jingling, catchy" nature, and its character creations are Sc altogether original that they cause something akin to astonish
 ment. The Man in the Moon," The Welsh Rarebit," The Tele- phone Man." The King and Queen of Hearts, The Jack of Hear s." The Weather Man." and the other unique personages have not hitherto been introduced into a stage work, and the author has given them ma terial to work with which is at once reasonable and uproariously funny
 The beautiful transforma ion scenes from earth to The Land of Nod" with visit to the latter from The Man in the Moon." is one of the most novel and beautiful of modern stage conceptions. The performance of this work is characterized by a com pany of comedians. singers, and dancers which is generally regarded as containing more gif ed men and women than have ever been brought together upon the stage at one time. Among the principal names are Knox Wilson, Ursula March, William Friend, Grace Drew, William Phll- lips and Luella Drew, and the work of these clever entertainers is aided by a chorus of GO, of whom upwards of 50 are vivacious, graceful young women who sing and dance pleas ingly and who wear an astonishing array of beautiful costumes From all points of view, the for Incoming presentation of the Land of Nod here must be regarded as one of the distinctly bright spots in the history of local theatricals. The sale of seats begins Saturday morning.

PADEREWSKI NOT COMING.
Music League Could Not Get Buck ingham Hall April 20.

In announcing the cancellation of the engagement of Paderewski, who was scheduled to play in this city on Monday, April 20, under the aus pices of the Music league, the league makes the following statement:
 It is with deep regret that we have found it impossible to carry out our plan of Paderewski recital. Arrangements had been practically completed and through misunder- standing it had been assumed that the Buckingham Music hall was not engaged for April 20. The hall was engaged for that evening, however, by the Algonquin club. Efforts were then made to have the distinguished pianist play at Polls theatar, but this has been found impracticable for various reasons. A personal confer ence with MT Ellis, Paderewski' manager, convinced us that bringing Paderewski to Waterbury was, un- der the circumstances, utterly inad- visable."

THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY"
 What Is said to be the best melo- drama on the circuit to-day will be the next attraction at Polls to-mor- row afternoon and evening. The new piece is western play and is called The Great Express Robbery" It is in four acts and crowded with novelties, thrills" sensations, and rare scenic display. A. H. Woods has given the production his usual excellent care, besides engaging a cast that will undoubtedly do jus tice to the various unique charac- ters.

ID MOVE ON CASTRO
Washington Will Take Up Case
 of Venezuelan Claims.
VARIOUS METHODS PROPOSED
Senate Committee Which Has Docu- nents Prepared by Secretary Root Makes Plans of Aotion-Should Be Prompt and Vigorous, Says Official.

Washington, April 1. Matters be- tween the United States and Venezuela seem to be reaching a stage where de- cisive action is to be expected on the part of this government. Secretary Root is reported on good authority to have expressed himself as very tired of dealing with President Castro in view of the seeming impossibility of inducing that South American states man to make any definite promises of good behavior or to live up to those promises he has already made.
 The latest adviees from Caracas are to the effect that Castro is in a de liant mood and determined to deal with the United States and the property of Americans without regard. to the wish es or actions of this government.
 The senate has received from Secre- tary Root all the correspondence be- States, voluminous mass of docu- ments.
 Plans of Action Proposed.
 Even cursory inspection of the doc uments makes it evident that the ne- gotiations have reached critical phase. The presidents realization of that fact is shown by his transmission of the matter to the senate without any comment, regarding the correspond ence and especially Secretary Roots strong presentation of the American case as sufficient to instantly enlist the attention of congress.
 All of the correspondence and docu- ments were referred to the senate con- mittee on foreign relations. Secretary Root will appear before the committee 0stensibly to discuss some of the trea- ties negotiated at The Hague, but it is expected he will take up the Yene- zuelan affair and suggest some action. Those members of the committee who have already familiarized themselves with the situation have arranged ten tatiyely a programme which consists of three propositions, as follows:
 Place prohibitivc tariff on Vene- zuelan coffee, the exports of which con stitute 45 per cent of the entire vene- zuelan foreign trade. and 90 per cent of the coffee is taken by the United States.
 Exclude all importations of asphalt from Lake Bermudez, the product of which has been taken almost entirely by the United States.
 Authorize the president to exercise the general power invested in him to take whatever steps he may consider necessary to treat with Venezuela in the future
