A TIME FOR CAUTION.

The subjoined dispatch. received by the Kansas City Star from its Wash ington correspondent. covers a situa- tion which has already given concern to many well informed citizens of Ari- zOna and New Mexico:
 Eastern influences opposing the ad- dition of four western senators to the radical strength in The senate and anxious to handicap the chances for the enaction of a general income tax, are forming a combination to delay statehood for Arizona and New Mexico.
 ''The New England strength in the senate is bitterly against adding to the numerical strength of the west in the senate. The income tax intensifies the antagonism to immediate state

AND NOW. PEARY.

Mir Harry Carr, the brilliant Ian cer" of the Sunday Los Angeles Times will please step to the head of the class and receive the homage of the seers, clairvoyants and prophets that throng the coast city Only two days ago he said:
 T have an idea that Commander Peary will also discover the pole Everyone will be discovering it now
 Things go that way. Long ago nc one could succeed In making an auto- mobile that would work; then a dozen inventors solved the problem all at once.
 "The flying machine and the wire less machines, and the telephones all came in the same way.
 Now that one man has broken through to the north pole. they will all find 1t to be suddenly easy. No doubt they will have a summer hotel up there, and will be roaring if the mail from the states is an hour late, and if cantaloupes are not served for breakfast.
 "Peary will probably discover it this summer. No doubt he is already on his way home, and pretty soon will come bursting into civilization shout ing. I've found the north pole,'"

BROADWAY THEATER.
May Robson.


The first performance in Boston of
THE Remuneration of Aunt Mary"
was an emphatic success.
Philip Hale of the Boston Herald of
May 18th. said: THE first perform
ance in THE Regeneration of Aunt
Mary" was one of the brightest and
breeziest comedies seen in Boston for
good many years. The play is a
dramatization of a magazine story of
the same name by Anne Warner. and
In the fall of 1907 she dramatized it
for Miss Robson, who has played it
continually until she played here last
evening.
THE play has to do with Aunt Ma
ry, her cat, and Lucinda, Jack, her
nephew. his three college chums. and
Betty Burnett. one of the chum's sis
tiers, whom Jack manages to fall in
love with. But the play depends sole
ly on Miss Robson's representations
Aunt Mary is known in the first ten
minutes she is on the stage. Full of
prejudices and crOtchets, irascible.
cynical. sentimental, contradictory, I'M
bearable, lovable and amusing, except
to Lucinda, the faithful and much
tried companion and servant! The
comedy depends wholly on Miss Rob-
sons humor. which is indisputable.
The spectator is never obliged to meet
her half way. She makes all the adj
vances. The laughter that follows is
immediate and hearty. Last night, as
on preceding occasions, when Miss
Robson played eccentric parts the au-.
dfence was continually entertained.
The play itself is light but breezy.
1t serves to display Miss Robson's
humOr. and her ability to make that
humor contagious" At the Broadway
theater tonight.
