Pork Chops, Smelly Ones, Help
Pretty .Netc Loxe Play Succeed
BY w. G. Shepherd.

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-The de-
lcious odor of pork chops, fried
on the stage about 10 O'Clock
every evening, has helped make a
Broadway success of Such a Lit
tie Queen"
Charming Pollock wrote the
play. His best line is:
'He's going to - SO fast he
can't see the scenery"
Credit for Mr.. Pollock ends,
however, with that line and the
pork chop stunt. Yet his story
material was fine. 1t runs like
this:
The young queen of Herzogo-
VIVA, exiled with her prime min
lister Cosaca, comes to New York
and moves into a flat in Harlem.
On the way over she met Robt.
Trainer, a young American bust
ness man, who often calls on her
In the flat. He breezes in nightly,
with flowers and candy, and does
not know that his poor little friend
is almost penniless; in fact, he
doesn't even know she's real
queen. though, lover-like, he con-
stantly calls her one.
The landlord of the flat can't
understand why Anna Victoria
should live, without a chaperon,
in the same flat with the fine, dig
nified old Cosaca; and Mary, the
hired girl, concludes that the pair
are crazy, because Cosaca always
calls Anna Victoria your grace"
and always kisses the hand which
she regally extends to him. Final
ly Anna Victoria dismisses Mary,
because there is no more money,
and does her own cooking.
All this time Anna Victoria is
betrothed to Stephen II, king of
Bosnia. 1t is a political engage
ment to unite the two countries.
The two have met only once and
we're chaperoned by a regiment of
soldiers and lot of government
officials. One day when Anna is
cooking-she wears her corona
ton gown in the kitchen because
she has no other-in. walks the
debonair king of Bosnia, deposed
and exiled, too.
He hasn't any money, either,
and Trainer. gets jobs for king
and queen in the office of Adolph
Lauman, millionaire beef packer.
There's a pretty tight race, at
this time, between Stephen and
Robt. Trainer. for Anna Victoria's
favor. One day Stephen is ar
rested for having a bill which was
stolen from the office. He didn't
steal 1t, but behaves so bravely.
according to Pollock, that Anna
Victoria falls in love with him.
But Stephen is now up against
It, and his landlord is about to
put him and Cosaca out of their
apartments when an embassy
comes from Herzegovina. Then
W 18th Trainers aid and a couple
of hundreds of thousands of dol,
lars from the king and queen re-
gain their thrones, and foil the
wicked pretender. So they are
really married for love, after all.
Elsie Ferguson, who is Anna
Victoria. the queen, and Frank
Gilmore, who is Stephen, are
splendid love-makers. He Is hand
some and she is beautiful.

Contest in South Dakota.

Washington, May 15.-In his deci-
sion in the land contest of Mitchell
VS.. Moon, involving homestead claim
in Lyman county, South Dakota, Sec
retary Ballinger has, it is said by those
who have been following such decisions
closely. reve -sed the policy of former
Secretary Garfield as to the require
ment that entrymen shall reside con.
tinueusly on the land.
In this case the entryman had been
on the land for about fourteen months,
during the last eight Of which he had
made some improvements and started
cultivating, going on his claim prob
ably three or four times week. The
contest was sustained by the local Of
ficers and the commissioners of the
general land office on the ground Of
nNn-continuous residence.
The secretary, however, reversed the
decision OF the lower officers and dis
missed the contest. He stated that
while the residence and cultivation
probably would not be sufficient to
permit of the acceptance of final proof,
it was sufficient to show good faith on
the past of the entryman and contest
against the entry could not be sus-
tanned on the ground of abandonment.
Under the Garfield administration of
the interior department, entrymen were
required to reside continuously on their
holdings, and the smallest detection
from that rule, it is said, was held to
be sufficient ground for cancellation of
the entry

KELLY AND PAPKE MEET
MiddIeweisht Pusilists in Fourth
Battle for supremacy-Fieht sched-
uIed to Last Forty-five Rounds.


San Francisco, May 15.-Hugo Kelly
and Billy Papke are scheduled to fight
forty-fve rounds at Coloma at 2:36
CPacif1c time), this afternoon, in the
fourth attempt to settle the question
Of the superiority that has puzzled
fight followers for years. In their
previous battles the first was draw,
Papke was awarded decision in the
second, and the third was declared a
draw.
With such thorough knowledge of
each others faults, both men have
trained hard for today's struggle, and
the vanquished can not urge lack of
preparation as an excuse for inability
to go the long route. Both have re-
duced gradually to the stipulated 1853
pounds, and apparently without loss
of vitality or stamina
Until last night odds were at evens,
but before midnight Papke was in
stalled a 10 to favorite, probably be-
cause he is considered the stronger,
harder puncher, and better able to
fight three hours, should the bout be
prolonged to the advertised limit.
Opposed to this view of the matter are
the contentious of Kelly's hackers, who
cite his superior cleverness and all
round ring generalshi4, as pegs upon
which to hang hopes.
