Monte CriSto" Given
By Holden Players

The Holden Players last night scored
their biggest hit since opening in Wash
tngton, when Monte Cristo" was
presented at the Majestic Theater in
the presence of an audience which
packed the house. H. G. keenan,, in
the title role made famous by James
o'Neill. increased the number of his
already large army of admirers by his
exceptional performance.
For a stock company, the scenic pro-
duction was unusually elaborate. The
second scene of the second act, showing
the open sea, brought forth prolonged
applause. Act four in which the Paris
mansion of Fernando is shown, was
equally as effective.
Mr.. Keenan, was called upon last night
TO disguise himself on several occa-
sions. and the knack with which he per
formed this work was applauded. II.
H. Holden played the part of Cader-
ousse, and impaired to that character
its full comic force. Jane Babcock, the
leading lady, received more than her
share of the applause. Carroll Barry
more played the part Of De Vilefort.
Anna Brandt made a captivating boy.
The usual intimate talk with his au-
dience was made by Mr.. Holden. Miss
Brandt sang several songs by special
request

Lasky's Hoboes Capture
Big Crowds at Casino


Capacity audiences greeted the four
performances Of the fifth bill at the
Casino Theater Since the new manage
ment has been In charge the patronage
at the F street house has been uniform
ly good. and If such attractions as are
offered this week are continued most
successful season seems assured.
The bill Is headed by Jesse Lasky's
Hoboes. The advance notice said this
act is one of the best on the popular
priced circuits. and the statement Is no
exaggeration, II the manner in which II
was received yesterday may be taken
as a criterion. The Hoboes dance and
sing and conduct themselves generally
in a manner that compels them to re-
spond to encores until they are forced
to make the announcement that they
have nothing more left. The others are
the De Roma Brothers, the American
Trumpeters. Morris and Kramer, and
Eldon and Clifton.

from boiling clothes, your wall paper would look nice
And you'd do your washing with less work, in less
time and get the clothes cleaner winter and sweeter
than you ever did by the old method of boiling.
You can't blame the clothes if you
boil all the life out of them and then rub
them to shreds against washboard.
You don't wear them out; you wash

You give them harder wear that way
in one day than you can possibly give them

It's all in the soap you use.
Fels-Naptha helps the wear.
It's just as gentle with clothes as the
finest toilet soap is with the skin.
You don't have to boil the wash with
Fels-Naptha You use cool or lukewarm
water; that won't weaken the fabric.
And you don't stand over steaming

Fels-Naptha dissolves the dirt.
Just soap the clothes thoroughly; let
them soak for about thirty minutes; then
rinse.

BELASCO PATRONS
GIVE WELCOME TO
!; u A GERMAN PRINCE,
A1 Wilson Enthusiastically
C~seted al Opening of
Popular House.

1isAn appr6ciative audience was delight
ed at the Belasco last night by the
realization that another season of those
high class offerings for which the play
house stands had started.
There is a place all of its own for
the AL Wilson type of performance,
and its clientele is as large and quite
as cordial as that which greets an
'"Everywoman' or a Piper
The charm of a play like "A German
Prince is that 1t serves its purpose
admirably, which in this instance Is
but to furnish a vehicle for the silvery
voice and faithful German nannerisms
of the star, who never fails to enter
tain.
He was greeted enthusiastically last
might, and If he had had any overmas-
'tering desire to make a speech the half
dozen curtain calls given him would
have afforded him an ample excuse.
There was a haunting quality In a
humber of ehe songs. which Mr.. Wilson
gave his audience. and the old fav-
orites. such as 20 Tannenbaum," sent
the blood dancing.
There was a delightful realism about
the cockney accent and manner of
Ben Holmes as Markey Davis. the land
lord of the Hotel CobIentz, and Dennis
SPOTS, the ex-bankrupt of Chicago,
was superior to his environment
There is no danger of inducing brain
fag in following the simple windings
of the princes disguise as a German
courier, in an effort to escape q mar
SiaSe of convenience with a crude and
wfthered widow, and capture the real
idol of his heart.
On the whole. the offering was not
unworthy of an opening night, even
at the Belasco, and a large attendance
may be expected throughout the week.

younger element, with the newer set
tiers are crowding the original pio-
neors in the prairies of that county,

ganization of the association twenty
seven years ago, being in the minor
ity. The principal speaker of the
day was LOOMS S. Gull, of Rapid,

tent in his talk, but in the matter of

It is time that there should be pro-
visions in the constitution of the
state which will allow the state and
icouEties to take up the matter of in
tornal improvements that such work
can be successfully carried out. He
further discussed the matter of the

courts the people themselves will
