COUNSEL GETS
QUESTION READY
FOR EXPERTS

Flushing, L. l., May with but two
lay witnesses, Charles Eaver who
claims to have sent Thornton and
Capt. Hams to Bayside to hook at real
estate on the day William E. Annis
was shot. and Policeman Baker, who
arrested the brothers after the killing
of Annis, still to examine, Lawyers
Mcintyre and Young completed their
hypothetical question this morning and
expect to put it to their experts this
afternoon. The question contains 10000
words and reviews all of the testi-
mony introduced at the trial, winding
UP with the request that if, with all
these facts in view, the experts con-
slider the captain rational or irrational
The experts are Drs. Peirece L.
Clark, Albert Bush, Graeme Hammond,
and L. Samuel Manson of New York,
and Charles Hill of Baltimore. 1t is
believed that their cross examinatf on
will take all of tomorrow so that the
rebuttal evidence will hardly begin be-
fore Friday.
There is still talk of commission to
examine Capt. Hams, but if it is APP
pointed before the case goes to the
jury it will be on the instance of JUS

Dewitt claims Capt. Hams is sane and
that his three experts will prove this

SMITHS.

An oferaticy event of exceptional i'm
portance, and one which should be rec
ognized by audiences of extreme size,
will be the appearance this evening
and tomorrow evening of the Imper-
ial Grand Opera Co., which this even
ing will be heard in Cavallerfa Rus
ticana" and "I Pagliacci," and to-
morrow evening in Verdis I'll Trova-
tore" This organization has been Sc
lected from among the artists COM
prising the Metropolitan and Manhat-
tan Opera Companies, of New York
city, and the principals are all from
the famous opera houses of San Car
10, in Naples, and La Scala, in Milan.
There will be big chorus of 40 voices,
and an orchestra selected from among
the musicians comprising the orches-
tras of the two New York opera
houses above mentioned.
Friday afternoon and evening, those
splendid motion pictures and illustrat-
ed songs will again be given, for the
last time during the current season.
There will be an entirely new set of
films, all of the best quality, and pre-
sented in the same magnificent man
ner which has always characterized
the pictures at Smiths theatre. For
this closing bill of pictures and songs
for the season, especial pains have
been taken to secure program which
cannot fail to meet the appreciation of
all.
The engagement of 'The Virginian"
Saturday afternoon and evening, the
last professional attraction of the sea-
son will doubtless afford much salts
faction to the patrons of the theatre.
1.-THE Virginian'' is delightfully."- refresh
ing in it's characterization, in it's
heartiness, in its roughness and in the
picturesqueness of cowboy life on the
Western plains, with its romances, its
real comedies and tragedies, it's home
life at the ranches, the attle-Stealing
episodes, etc. The cowboy hero of
both book and play appeals to all, on
account of his manEness. The Kirke
La Shelle Company has the reputation
of selecting players who will portray
each character true to life, and this
season has engaged an exceptionally
strong cast including w. S. Hart and
Frank Campeau. Mr.. Hart needs no
introduction to theatregoers, he will
be remembered with pleasure for his
clever work as Messiah in ben Hur''
and his great success in THE Squaw
Man" He will be the Virginian and

The merry musical SATIRE" 'The
Show Girl" which Robert M Sperry
has prepared for his twelfth annual
production, and which will hold the
stage all next week, with daily mat
inees, will be presented by the largest
cast and chorus which Mr. Sperry has
ever gotten together. A big singing
chorus of so voices has been selected
with the addition of Miss Margaret
Mckinney, the Broadway prima DON
na- The electrical effects alone will
eat up over $500 in cold cash; the cos
tunes have cost him already several
hundreds. and with salaries and other
incidental expenses, it can readily be
seen that The Show Girl has got to
travel some in order to bring him out
on the right side of the bargain. The
box office is open from a. m. to 10 D.
