bridge A few clandestine poker par
ties have so charmed society women
that bridge will be discarded at New

Poker parties are all the craze now
in London. Lady Paget gives one ev-

more than ten thousand dollars in
stakes often change hands at one of
Lady Pagent's calm and placid poker

Mrs. W. b. Leeds, owner of New

NEW YORK DRAMATICS.

(By William s Brewer

DS W A'iibii DiSMtT.D
New York.-It will be two or three
weeks before the new theatrical sea-
son is we'll aunched-perhaps long
er-but the Messrs. Shubert are pre-
pairing to start the ball rolling next
Monday night with Charles j. Ross
in High Life in Jail" the attraction
roopening the Hacket theater. 1t is
described as a musical farce in three
acts by Walter Hackett, with lyrics
by Ben Shields and music by P. D.
Costa. Mr. Ross plays the stellar role
OF banker who gets into Jail under
such comfortable conditions that he
never wants to live anywhere else. In
addition to Mr.. Ross the cast includes
Frank Byron, Louis Langdon, Ray
Cox. Elsa Ryan, Altnea Francis and
others. The production is being stag
ed by William C. DeNillo.
Louis Mann, having defied all ira
ditions successfully. is now in the
midst of highly successful and pros
porous engagement at the Lyric the
ater under the management of Will
liam A. Brady, appearing in his own
three-act farce comedy, ''The Cheat
er." This farce has turned out to be
especially appropriate at the present
time as it deals with the predicament
of a reformer who inherits an all
night saloon of the sort now being
Investigated by Mayor Gaynor "The
Cheater' enjoys the distinction of be-
ing the only comedy now running
without music and is voted to be the
funniest thing in town.
Life is a Merry-go-round" as sung
by Joseph Cawthorn in "Girlies" is a
very good indication of the spirit of
Frederick Thompson's big summer
show at the New Amsterdam theater
The chorus of sixty is as attractive
as ever, and its units continue to dis
play an enthusiasm in their work that
furnishes grounds for the belief that
they enjoy the show as much as the
people on the other side Of the foot
lights.
Reminiscent Ragtime Revue" the
latest added novelty to the Follies Of
1910" at the Jardin de Paris, gives
promise of being the most important
feature Of the entertainment. 1t is
made up of ragtime songs from other
Ziegfeld shows.
The Criterion theater will also re-
open next Monday evening under the
direction of Mr.. Henry B. Harris,
who will present James Forbes new
comedy THE Commuters" Mr.. Har-
ris has engaged Orrin Johnson to
create the part of Larry Brisco in the
new piece.
THE Gamblers" the first of
number of plays presented by the
Authors Producing company. will be
brought into New York, after a short
preparatory tour, for an extended en-
gagement THE Gamblers" is Mr..
Charles Klein's latest effort.
Walter Jones. the comedian who
appeared last season in "Going Some"
under the management of the Messrs.
Shubert has been added to the COM
pany which is to present "The Simple
Life" at the Hacket theater. which
is the same as High Life in Jail"
Another early season production,
THE Drummer" which will be pro-
duced by the Messrs. Shubert and
William A Brady. The play is a mu-
steal version of What Happened to
Jones'" with book and lyrics by
George Broadhurst, author of the or
iginal and music by Augustus Barrett.

RACE PROBLEM IN
CUBA IS SERIOUS
WHITES AND BLACKS
CLASH CONTINUOUSLY
Negroes Believe They Have Not Re-
ceived Equal Representation in the
Government Which They Helped to
Secure.

hington.-Reports of outbreaks
in Cuba, which are Of the intermit-
tent and unceasing variety. are but
the reflection of a problem which
threatens the new republic with the
most serious consequences according
to the experts who are in touch with
affairs in the island. This problem
is the race question, and the situa-
tion is more acute than in the Unit
ed States.
1t is for this reason that the gov
ernment at Havana takes no chances
with small outbreaks. Troops are at
once rushed to the scene as soon as
a disturbance is reported. In every
instance, so far, the disorders have
been suppressed but the difficulty of
which they are but a manifestation
is not materially diminished.
At the time of the war of liberation
when the island undertook to lift the
yoke of Spanish dominion, fully so
per cent of the army came from the
province Of Santiago. A large portion
of this army was made up of negroes.
Whether or not they were given prom
Use of equal representation with the
whites beside whom they fought or
promised a share of the public offices
under the new government, the ne
groes have that impression. So far
they have not received any of the Of
fices, and their privileges are in fact
not so extensive as those of the white
element Of the population. They feel
tba. tha1, have NOT haen treated fair
ly. and, since the establishment of the
present government, there have been
numerous small outbreaks of a revo-
lutionary character - disturbances
which presage a more serious reyolu-
ton later if conditions do not change.
Until recently the outbreaks have
been lead by negroes themselves. The
last affair of this sort, which was
promptly suppressed, was led by
General Miniet, a discontented white
officer. Under white leadership the
agitation becomes much more serious.
The danger becomes greater as the
number of malcontents and agitators
increase. The negro element of San
tiago has been trained IN military ex-
perience. 1t is very numerous. All
II needs to become a serious menace
is the leadership of competent white
officers. The prediction is freely
made that trouble originating from
this source will lead to the overthrow
of the republican government, and
necessitate the third interference of
the United States in the affairs of the
island.

MAN Is TOO LAZY TO
WIND HIS WATCH

Superintendent Briggs of the Linn
ton rockpile will have to deal for the
next 80 days with the LATEST man in
Oregon. His name is Bert Wright,
and while he confesses that he is 81
years old, he has never during his life
time held a job for more than a week
at a time. Policeman e. e. Lyons ar
rested him yesterday afternoon at
Union avenue and Holiday street, as
he was sauntering along with his
hands in his pockets.
"why don't you go to work." Lyon
asked him.
ooh. it's too much trouble" Wright
answered with a yawn.
Lyon did not wait for further par
ley but hurried the fellow off to the
police station. When he was search
ed watch was found in his pocket
which had been allowed to run down.
''Why don't you wind your watch?"
Lyons demanded.
ooh it's too much trouble" the
vagrant again responded.
In the Municipal Court Wright
thought 1t was too much trouble to
even say a word in his own defense,
but when Judge Gebhardt sentenced
him to 30 days on the rockpile he
| looked somewhat disturbed. Briggs
has n way of getting work out of the
most hardened offenders, and while
he has never had to deal with a man
too lazy to wind a watch, he believes
he will find a way to make Wright
break rock as long as he remains al

Society of Engineers Starts Movement Which Is Expected to Result in
 Heated Controversy.

Toledo, O., Nov. "A movem ent expected to result in a bitter contro, versy between the states of Ohio and Indiana, and in which Uncle Sam probably will be called as arbitrator was started at a meeting here. Ex, perts of the Toledo society claim that Union City, Ind, and numerous small CT cities on the eastern boundary of Indiana are really in Ohio.
 This was brought out in a paper by former County Surveyor Joseph Hoff- mann. Back of this, however, is a well defined movement to determine the Ohio boundaries and to mark them fully.
 The Toledo Society of Engineers has determined that there is strip of land one mile wide at the north end, gradually reducing to nothing at the south end, 200 miles away" says Walter Sherman, now in possession of Indiana, that is actually the proper ty of the state of Ohio.'
