Consul, the Chimpanzee>

unexpected experience of dining in

Just at the most fashionable din
ner hour last night Consul, Stmian
of some renown, who comes from
southeast Africa, appeared at a WELL
known restaurant with his trainer
and had dinner.
Consul seemed very blase, and the
fashionables present did not disturb
him in the least, but he was the talk
of the restaurant and held almost
continuous reception.
If Consul ever gets back to Africa
he will certainly be a star politician
and have the Manipulating game down
all right. Consul ate his dinner,
drank his wine. smoked his cigar
rette, and then hurried out to earn
his living just like any human being.

May Yohe, Once Wife of
Lord Hope, At Casino

There is a special interest for Wash
ingtonians this week in the appearance
here of May Yohe. former wife of Lord
Francis Hope, al one time. owner of the
famous Hope diamond, which just now
is figuring in a suit in the District
courts. Previous to her marriage to
Lord Hope. from whom the noted gem
took its name, Miss Yohe was a singer
on the musical comedy stage, on which
she won great distinction both here and
abroad.
1t is as a vocalist that she returned
TO the stage, and those who heard her
songs at the Casino last night readily
perceived that time has taken none of
her old-time ability from her.
Miss Yohe has a supporting bill of CX-
ceptional strength. including Ziska and
Saunders in an offering of magic and
singing: Jane Cooper and company. IN
a rural comedy sketch called Ma
linda" Camaroni, a strong man, in
some astonishing feats; Laura Ordway,
an English comedienne, in a suffragette
monologue; the Miller sisters, in vocal
duets: Skinner and Wood. shadow
dancers; Musical Lowe, with his xylo-
phones; and an unusual number of dra-
matte motion picture plays.

Little Comic Opera Star

The winning little Trentini has fur

been in the limelight for many years.
but she reaches it with an ease and
ecstacy which even she herself seems
TO enjoy 1t is like the FURNISHED hum

1t was an enthusiastic audience which
greeted her and the excellent company
which Mr.. Hammerstein presented in
Naughty Marietta" at the National
last night. From the first moment
she came on the stage, bun
die of nervous energy filled with
all the melody and charm which
belong to her sunny Itaiy, she caught
on. On a previous occasion she had
won the hearts of the people of Wash
ington, and her appearance last night
only confirmed their good opinion. There
can be no doubt that in this charming
little duodeclmo of mirth and song Mr..
Hammerstein has made a real find
In the book, written by Rida johnson
Young, there are unmistakable evil
dences of a master craftsman's hand
one accustomed to the more solid struc-
ture of the drama itself. So far from be-
ing weak in plot-a charge so often
brought against the slender thread on
which comic operas are hung-the story
was as we'll worked out as If it had been
intended for dramatic representation.
Edward Marindel, with voice against
which no complaint could be justly
lodged, seemed rather too strongly per-
suaded that he was the villain of the
play. with facial exaggeration and af-
fectations which might we'll be toned
down. Orville Harold got welcome as
soon as he came on the stage. His
friends knew what to expect of him, and
they were not disappointed. while Harry
Cooper. as Simon O'Hara divided honors
with Kate Gilmore, as the grotesque
Lizette
In costume and scenery as we'll as in
the music, Naughty Marietta was
pronounced success, rejecting credit
upon Victor Herbert and all who were
concerned in its presentation.
AS for TTentini, Washington will prob
ably be glad to hear the little soprano
many times again.

That "Sapho' has lost none of its
popularity was demonstrated by the

Edna Cecil DAILY, as Sapho, portrayed

ner, and her acting was far superior to
anything she has attempted at the
Majestic so far. Her appearance in the
first act commanded a round of ap-
plause. Herbert O'Connor, as Jeah
Jaussin, the student, looked and played
the victim of Sapho's wiles capably.
