heads of his speech in his mind.

non grew cold and limp with nevous-
ness. His hands were clammy, his
knees trembled, his mouth became dry
and parched, and the cigarette he had
lighted impaired all at once an evil
taste. Yet he smoked on. and as he
wandered around the rotunda, men
from both houses, passing to and fro.
greeted him. but they seemed to him
TO be strange new creatures fitting by
in a dream. II he was conscious of
them at all it was only as of envied
beings. all on common happy plane,
fortunate ones who did not have to
make speech within the hour. He
went over to the state library think
ing that its quiet would soothe, but
when he stood among the tall stacks
of books he suddenly remembered that
he must not smoke in those precincts;
and so he turned out into the rotunda
again. for he must smoke. He walked
round and round the rotunda. pausing
at times TO lean over the brass railing
and look far down to the main floor
where the red light glowed at the
cigar stand; he sauntered back into
the dim and undisturbed corridors his
mind racing over all the things he
might say.

comedy seen here in a long while, and as good clean comedy always pleases everybody this little skit will no doubt make an instant hit.
 A varied and interesting series of motion pictures will be presented, headed by the semi-religious drama entitled The Way of the Cross. This beautifully produced subject deals with the prosecutions of the Christians in ancient Rome during the reign of Nero A pathetic love story is cleverly inter mingled with the plot, the hero being Roman noble and the heroine a Christian girl. The settings and CO.'S tunes are accurate of the period rep resented and the Vitograph company deserves great credit, for it is such subjects as this that teach and instruct as well as entertain. A melodramatic thriller will be Won in the Desert, which deals with the kidnapping of an American girl by an Arab sheik and her subsequent rescue by her sweet heart at the head of a detachment or U. s. sailors. By special request The Wright Bros at Fort Myer has been held over for Monday. The manage ment wishes to assert the fact that this is the original picture by the Edl- son company, taken by special per:nis- sion of the U. s. government at Fort Myer Va, last July, and the only one taken of the official aeroplane tests.

THE AUDITORIUM.

The turn of the vaudeville wheel will bring to the Auditorium this week a novelty musical act entitled That Little German Band by the Steinhert- Thomas Trio, a troupe of clever per formers doing a short sketch in which they carry their own scenery and ef- fleets. The first scene shows the wharf at Ellis Island with three immigrants landing, while the second shows the interior of modern apartment house and the same three immigrants five years later, having become thoroughly Americanized.
 A dainty sister act is that of the Benheld girls. who will hold the closest attention of their audience while they are in the glare of the 1ootlights, with their breezy singing and graceful dancing.

These papers are entitled to the respect of all decent persons. The Herald may later nave something to say that will be of special interest to the others
 A curious notion as to the character and value of news finds expression in a communication that appears this morning in the column of letters from Herald readers. The writer-judging from his letterhead, a business man of this city-takes exception 10 the Her. aids claiming exclusive property in Dr. Cooks article on the ground that it is something that belongs to the world" It is incredible that any person of sufficient intelligence to write letter should be ignorant of the fact that when journal pays a large sum to writer for an article and makes a fur ther outlay for. having that article specially cabled the article is as truly property as would be SO much mer- chandise pure hased abroad and im- ported.
 What Q silly notion that exclusive news thus obtained belongs not to the readers of the Herald but sto the wOrldp in the sense that others should be free to pilfer 1t and publish it as their own. Newspapers and news gathering agencies are laboring under no such hallueiuation.
 They know that such news has been acquired at great expense and that it is valuable property the taking Of which without the owners permission is characterized in law by 3 very ugly word and for which serious penalties may be infiicted.--New York Herald

 cessor to that talented artist. MT. Weber has a splendid voice, an ad- mirable stage presence and is ably f1t- ted for the dual role which he DOT trays. Some idea of the merit of the comedy may be gained from the recep- tion which has been accorded both star and company wherever it has been presented. Practically without excep- tion, managers. wherever this attraction has been presented have insisted upon return engagements, and in every case where it has been granted Mir. Weber and company have been received by capacity houses. This is not only gratifying to the young star, but it is evident that theS theatergoing public is quick to appreciate true merit.
