Although the prima donna has a part which affords her opportunities to dis play her abilities as a comedienne, her songs are not of the sort to inspire enthusiasm. This Is no reflection on the singer, however. Her voice is quite unimpaired and her yocalization is still remarkably accurate. It has been a matter of general knowledge ever since Fritzi Scheff opened her season in The Duchess" that she did not par ticularly like the piece. Yet there Is so much that is really good in it We are indebted 70 her for not giving up The Duchess" as a bad job.
 There is q rather pretty little love story woven into the piece, which has to do with temporary marriage, sight unseen, between Rose. the daughter of a florist, and the Marquis de Montreville. There was a cash consideration which tided over some financial difficulties of the Marquis The whole affair was brought about at the instance of one Adolph, Comte de Paravante, who plans for Rose to get a divorce at the expiration of three months, so the scheming Adolph may carry out hiss fathers wishes by wedding a mar quise, though divorced one.

HUGH [. CRANE IS . PUT UNDER ARREST IN Il PASO, TEXAS Serious Charges Are Pre- ferred Against Well
 Known Attorney LEFT BIRMINGHAM ABOUT 10 DAYS AGO Warrants in Hands of Sheriff Charge Embezzlement and Obtaining
 Money Under False
 Pretense

El Paso, Tex, December 16.-Hugh (. Crane, said to be an attorney of Birmins- ham, Ala, was arrested here today on adviees from Birmingham. He is charged with forgery and embezzlement and is held pending the arrival of Alabama au- thorities.
 Hugh c. Crane, a well known attorney of Birmingham, was arrested in El Paso yesterday on request of the sherihs or flee of Jefferson county, and a deputy from this office is now en route to Texas to bring him back to Bermingham
 Crane left Bermingham about ten days ago, saving to some of his friends that he was going out west to live. Since that time a number of warrants have been sworn out for his arrest on various charges, including enbezzlement and on- taining money under false pretense. Among those who have sworn out war rants are John c. Bradley, Hugh Mor- row, two or three Bermingham banks and Mrs F. Byrne of 1113 Second ave nue, West End. Mrs. Byrne. who is widow, charges that Crane collected note for her for $500. and has never turned over the money.
 Crane while in Bermngham, did an 5xtensive collecting business under tho name of Acme Adjusting company, ana had offices at 2o5 Title Guarantee build ing.
 It is understood that the largest amount of money collected was by means of bills of sale giving certain property he held as security. The same property was kiVen as security over and over again. In each case it is understood he requested those from whom he borrowed money not to have the bills of sale recorded just yet, as it would embarrass him. He repre- sented in each case that he would need the money for only a short time. It was only when several of the documents had been recorded at the probate office that it was found they covered practically the same property.
 All of the fixtures, law books and other eouipnente ill the Title Guarantee offices have been levied upon, and are held by the sheriff.
 Nir. Crane resided at 129o North Thirty second street.
 II is said that the money obtained by Crane will aggregate many thousands of dollars.

 there can be no question about it.. The record in the case is conclusive and I am surprised that the ambas sador objects to the truth. Official Rus sia seems to be getting sensitive about the matter at last and that certainly is a good sign and means much, l hope, for the future
 As a matter of fact, there is noth- ing offensive in the resolution. To say so is absurd and begs the question. I drew the resolution very carefully with a desire to say nothing in it to offend Russia. The Russian resolution is in diplomatic form and follows the procedents heretofore adopted by Con gress, only it is not as forcefully and so drastic in language as some which have been passed by Congress in the past It says nothing we do not mean, and it means nothing we have not said before"
