Chase's-PoIite Vaudeville.

Burr Mcintosh treated the audience at
Chase's to a personally conducted" tour
through the Philippines, Japan. and a
part of China. His illustrated lecture on
the experiences met and sights seen by
Secretary Tafts party on its trip two
years ago was instructive and engaging.
Mr.. Mcintosh is so widely known and
liked that he had the attention of his
audience from the first word. Many
strange facts were brought TO his hear
ers' attention for the first time, and he
displayed some choice pictures. He de-
scribes a race track visited; there were
six races, and six horses, and every horse
won a race A breezy play, "The Wyom-

He also described the desolation Of the
country. and of the many Cuban families
who were furnished food through the
charity of the United States government.
He gave an interesting narrative of the
methods used by the United States au-
thorities IN cleaning uD the cities of the
island and placing them in a sanitary
condition.
Can't. fdpscomb paid a high tribute
to Gen. Rabi. one OF the Cuban leaders
during the Spanish revolution. and an
equal in rank with the celebrated Cuban
leader, Gen. Gomez.
THE leaders of the Cuban armies" he
said. recognized that the United States
would intervene. Their method Of war.
therefore, was to prolong the struggle as
long as possible.
Capt. Lipscomb concluded his talk with
many interesting "reminiscences Of his life
and experiences in Cuba.
Mrs Mary St Clair Blackburn read a
historical paper; Miss Ever sang several
solos, and two piano solos by Miss Cor
nelia Keep concluded the programme.
AT the conclusion Of the exercises re-

The daiestic-.In New York Town.

The musical comedy, "In New York
Town" with which Charles Howard
opened a weeks engagement at the Ma
iestic yesterday afternoon. proved sue
cess. The piece is one Of interest TO
Washington playgoers, as the book Is by
Willard HolcOmb, formerly a newspaper
man of this city. As is suggested by the
programme, the pieee is a musical Cd
dity," whose plot defies description, save
that il forms a skeleton upon which to
hang some very clever comedy and music.
The company is good, the costumes at
tractive, and the staging generous. 4
pretty chorus is one Of the features. The
personal work of Mr. Howard was
warmly applauded, his comedy being in
fectious. Mr. Waiter i'aschal-who. by
the way. is a Washington boy-made an
excellent impression in the role of Cum

possessing a tenor voice of rare quality,
Mr.. Paschal is a polished actor, and ac-
quilted himself With distinction His
