Is the Best On the Stage.

Henrietta Crosman, who is booked
to play her new comedy "Anti-Matri-
mony," at the Norfolk Auditorium
next Saturday night. is regarded as
far and away the best Comedienne on
the American stage, by the dramatic
critic on the Lincoln State Journal.
Miss Crosman played at Lincoln Sat.
urday and the State Journal, in the
course of column article, says in
part:
Henrietta Crosman, far and away
the best coincidence on the American
stage, appeared at the Oliver yester.
day afternoon and evening in a rat.
Ting good piece of stage work entitl'
ed "Anti.Matrimony.' There are com
edians of both sexes in this country
who range from mere idiots to dis
penserS of pure, high grade comedy
of the first water Every season we
get surfeit of would.be comedians
and near enthusiastically parties
who have not brains enough to dc
anything save to parade their insig
nitcant personalities. Put all of these
together in' Eddie FOy and Raymond
| Hitchcock for good measure, and ther
place Miss Crosman on the other plate
and her side will rapidly cause the
others to fly up into the air. Miss
!, CroSman is one of the few absolute
units on the stage today Marked in
dividuality is coupled to ready grasI
of character and adequately har
messed TO technical skill. 1t is posi-
tive delight to see her act. She also
has individuality in the sense of pos
sessing a fine nature, spirit and char
,acter. One need lot be particular,
close observer nor be possessed of the
critical instinct to discover that ever!
character portrayed by Miss Crosmai
has gained at her hands, has improved
its quality as it were. am convinced
that she could round out and put spiri
into the most commonplace and con
ventonal comedy parts. or has she

day of Occupying the center of thu

the committee assignments which
were agreed to by the caucus. Repre-.
sentative Mcguire goes on agriculture
and the committee on claims Repre-
sentative Latta, who served on the In.
dian committee in the last congress-
was allowed to retain his membership
therein and in addition he was given
places on banking and currency and
the committee on accounts, through
which the patronage is dispensed.
Representative Lobeck, the new mem
Der from Omaha, was put on the dis.
trict committee, which legislates for
the national capital, and also the com.
mittee on expenditures in the treasury
department ordinarily a useless com.
mittee. If the democrats carry out
their intention of investigating all the
ment may come to be one OF the most
important in the house.
In party caucus noteworthy for
its harmony and the smoothness of
its progress, the democratic members
of the new house of representatives
adopted without change the commit.
tee assignments, the economy pro.
gram and the new rules prepared for
the coming session by the commit.
tees that have been working in the
last month.
Important changes in procedure, and
a general reorganization of the house
will result from the action OF the
democrats. The power of naming
committees was definitely taken from
the speakers by the rules and lodged
in the house itself Committee mem.
] bers are to be elected by the house,
not only in the first instance, but al
so in the filling of vacancies.
A saving OF $lS2,000 in the annual
cost of running congress is .romised
through the cutting out of surplus
employees and in active committees
and through the adjustment of the
time honored extra months pay.
| Appointive places are put into the
hands of one committee, special
body to be known as the committee
on organization, and the scramble for
congressional positions will center
about its doors.
| The important changes in the rules
under which the new congress will
operate, are:
The selection Of committees by the
house.
| A provision to prevent filbusterine
under the rules giving authority tC
discharge committees from considera
tlon Of bills.
A provision permitting amendments
to appropriation bills whenever those
amendments will result in retrench
ment of national expenditures.
| Authority for bills to come up twice
for passage under the unanimous con
sent privilege.

there is no mention of gaining wealth,

gain all these and yet not succeed in

succeed in making life strong, pure

possible achievement. 1t is more than
to succeed in making money, or build

a Woman'x Sacrifice.

Three years ago startling tale came
to light concerning prominent bust
ness man in Austria. He found him
self on the brink Of ruin. and his wife
came to his rescue at the cost OF her
own life. Leaving an overheated room
one night, she walked up and down a
stone tagged passage, barefoot and
with nothing on but uightdress, till
she caught chill which she aggravat-
ed by a series OF reckless acts. In
Examination of the lungs set In, and she
died shortly afterward. Her husband
obtained the large sum Of money for
which her life was insured, and with
this he was able to pull through the
crisis successfully. He married for a
second time within three months of his
first wife's death. This husband did
not get off scot free, however. A serv-
ant in his employ had overheard the
conversation IN which the heroic
young wife had told her husband her
intention to die for his sake. The serv-
ant Informed the police. Then the in
Surance companies contended it was a
case OF suicide and sued successfully
for the return of the money. The huS-
band was prosecuted for being an ac-
ccssory to his wife's death and re-
ceived the punishment he well merited.

New Congress is All Ready.

Washington, April 3.-The interest
ing situation of democratic house
and republican senate to consider a
Taft administrative measure directs
unusual attention to the converting of
the SiXty-second congress in eXtraordi-

the democrats will show a gain of
fifty-four members and the republi-
cans a loss of fifty-five, the socialist
member, Victor Berger of Milwaukee,
accounting for the difference in the
equalization.
BY reason of the change resulting
from the election last November new
faces will be seen not only in the
membership of the house but in the
whole organization. Republican EN-
ployes in great number will go out
and their places will be filled by demo
Gratis.
Instead of ffty-nine republicans who
occupied seats in the senate Oh
