Times report of the company s concert
at the Manila Grand Opera House on
the 18th ultimO:
''The concert of the Withers com
pany was undoubtedly the greatest
musical and popular success the Grand
Opera House has ever known. All the
artists were enthusiastically received,
and the high tide of enthusiasm was
reached when Mr. Bennett. in response
to an encore and mindful of its be-
ing st. Patrick s Day, sang Father
o Flynn. The audience rose and cheer
ed him again and again, and he was
six times recalled. The scenes of en-
thusiasm throughout the evening were
exceedingly flattering to the company,
for such scenes have never before been
witnessed in the play houses of Manila.

but two weeks will scarcely satisfy

oficer's Wife Bigamist.
NEW YORK. April 15.-Mrs. Edythe
Lea Chase Johnson, an author, daugh-
ter of retired captain in the United
States army, and niece of Preston Lea
once Governor of Delaware, confessed
herself a bigamist yesterday. She was
made defendant in the Supreme Court
in a suit brought by Professor EnOs
Johnson. a musician, of No. Al West
Sixtieth street, to have his marriage
with her annulled on the ground that
when it took place she was already
the wife of Captain Arthur W. Chase,
of the United States army
Her extraordinary admission was
made through her counsel and by way
of mitigation it was set forth in the
answer that Mrs. Chase Johnson was
not mentally competent when the sec
ond marriage was contracted, and,
moreover, had long been of the belief
that her first husband was dead. This
peculiar complication was primarily
caused by the assignment of Captain
Chase to the Philippines in 1904.
One day word came that he had
been killed. Not long afterward Mrs.
Chase met Professor Johnson at a
musicale in New York hotel, an at
tachment sprang up between them
and in 1908 they were married, she be-
lieving herself to be a widow. But on
another day the soldier returned and,
like another Enoch Arden, found that
his place as husband had been taken.
Not long after this situation arose
Mrs. Chase Johnson was sent to a
hospital and treated for mastoids, a
growth behind the ears that seldom
fails to cause mental arrangement
She recovered, however. and added
another phase to the remarkable story
only few months ago by bringing suit
I for divorce from Captain Chase, alleg-
ing that he had placed her in a SAM
tarium against her will This action
is still pending, and on top of it comes
that of Professor Johnson. so that ii

General Crooks Old House.
4 $4,000 house was sold at Fort
whipple, near Prescott, a few days
ago for $780, said George II. Morgan,
known as the old General Crook house,
and was owned by the government.
General Crook occupied the house for
several months, and it was on just
such Il day as that of the sale that
General Crook rode away from the
house in March. 1885.
The building was a nondescript style
of architecture, constructed of stucco.
adobe and frame. 1t was roomy and
comfortable, with lofty ceilings and
hay windows, through which could be
seen the snow covered peaks of the
mountains on one side and Thumb
Butte and the city of Prescott on the
other. The house contained more than
10000 feet OF lumber, and among other
modern conveniences it had two bath
tubs.
While General Crook was the occu-
pant of the house he was engaged in
~ long and difficult campaign against
the Indians. The old building is still
well preserved. When the auctioneer
announced the sale the bidding started
at $50. and this figure was raised from
time to time until ii reached $3.50, at
which sum il was knocked down to

purchaser proposes to do with ii ]

was told that it must be removed

longer be responsible for its safety.
The house cost probably more than
$50. 600 Every foot of the lumber was
