Thurston, the Magician.


With the passing Of P. T. Barnum and
his museum, the public that liked to be
humbugsed must have nocked to the
support of the professional masicians, Tor
each season finds the modern opponents
of black art greeted by curious and mys-
tilted spectators. However, in Thurs
tons performance last night at the Co
lumbia, there was certainly no deception
in the matter of value received. In ad-
dition to many Of the time-tried tricks
of his master. KeIlar, Thurston has add
ed a series developed by himself, which
by turns entertain, amuse, or perplex the
audience.
In the programme presented last night
particular attention is devoted TO nlu-
sions and mechanical tricks. of which the
best is 1.-The Lady and the Lion" In
which a real lioness appears in a cage

CHASE'S.
Polite Vaudeville.

Nat NJ. Wills made his annual bow to
his native Washington at Chase's yester-
day afternoon in a new trampologue, as
he calls il, and was accorded one of the
heartiest welcomes OF his vaudeville
career. He has a brand-new line of paro-
dies. songs, and stories and his recital
OF his trip ITO England by Cattle Boat
proved a worthy successor to 'Hortense."
Although Mr.. Wills is billed as the head
liner, Horace Wright and Rene Dietrich,
the latter a popular Washington girl,
scored another distinct success on their
return here. They have a good roper
toire of songs, including some of their
latest compositions. which were received
with enthusiasm. THE Squarer," served
to introduce ]. c. Nugent in the part of
New York cIubman who straightens out
a friends troubles with his wife. He is
ably assisted by Miss julie York.
Arnold and Durand opened the bill with

of his ability to burlesque an entire
opera company. The Six Demos scored
in solo and ensemble dancing, which was
of high order but lacking in variety
The Sensational Boises amused the au-
dience with their aerial performance and

Philip Warner. the big Central athlete.

come out for baseball, and IL he shows
up as good as is expected, he will do the
majority of the catching for the 90

Jack Dodge, who is called the Lajoie of
the high schools, is following his guiding
stars example with the stick. Besides
fielding his position "a la Lajoie,'' he is
clouting the offerings OF the opposing
pitchers to all corners of the lot.
The weak spot of the Cathedral School
team seems to be the outtield. This is
accounted for because the men playing
in those positions are new to the game.
With the capable coaching of Green, it
should not take long for the outergardeen
of the Episcopal school to develop into a
winning combination.
Babe Adams, the crack left fielder of
the Central team. has been playing an
exceptionally good game in the gardens,
besides reaching the first sack nearly
every time he has stepped up to the
plate.
Frank Colley. who has been showing up
well OF late with the Technical team, will
probably cover the initial sack for the
Blacksmiths in the coming high school
championship games. He has been fielding
the ball in fine style, besides welding the
willow in a creditable manner.

COMPLAINS OF JURY
SELECTING SYSTEM
J. William Mckinley Writes
a Letter to Court.

Unjust, unsought. and without founda-

Justice Claubaugh yesterday of a state

he declared the present jury system
a disgrace. and in which he pointed
out the requirement to do jury service

Mr.. Mckinley has completed two
months service as a juror, and. in pre-
senting his views in written form, caused
decided sensation in the court. Mr..
Mckinley admitted the criticism to en-
body his own individual opinion. His
letter to the court sets forth that ION

AT THE THEATERS
THE BELASC0.
Robert ManteII, In "KinE Lear

Robert Mantell, In "KfnE Lear"
An audience of fiattering size and en-
thusiasm, distinguished by the presence
of washington's most indefatigable first
nighter, President Taft, welcomed Mr..
MantelI at the Belasco Theater last night.
1t was the first appearance of this
notable Shakespearean player In this
city in several seasons and from the
reception accorded him in his splendid
impersonation of King Lear his current
engagement in repertoire should prove
both pleasant and profitable.
Mr.. Mantell did well to offer this ire
mendously pathetic tragedy for his initial
performance. In the role of the aged,
sorrow-maddened king. Mr.. Mantell I'M
folds every prospect Of his unquestion-
ably noble talent. 1t is a role that few
actors have essayed with distinctive sue
cess. Its physical demands alone bar
from the attempt all but the most robust.
iron-throated of players. Nothing Is
more trying to the throat than the as
sumption of that grating quaver in the
voice brought with advancing age. In
addition, the role rivals that of Hamlet
in the number and variety of it's long,
speeches. but ABOVE dll SldHus
the conception itself-a test to bring
into play every subtle manifestation of
the actors art
All these requirements are met in full
by Mr.. Mantell. His commanding figure
adapts itself readily to the alternate pic
lures of decrepit old age and impressive
majesty presented by this most pitiful
of royal figures. In makeup and in
voice, while he has observed the con-
ventional traditions of the role, he Is
superb. His conception Of the role leaves
no room for criticism. Nothing finer has
been heard in Washington than his de-
livery Of the fearful curse speech at the
end of the second act, and his final
scenes are Infinitely pathetic.
1t would be easy to comment caus-
tically on Mr.. Mantelrs support. The
Sothern and MarIowe companies showed
US that there are some fairly efficient
Shakespearean players left for the minor
roles. 1t may require diligent search to
find them, but no one apparently thought
1t worth while to make the effort in Mr..
Mantelrs behalf. Least annoying. how
ever, were Miss Marie Booth Russell.

PROMISE OF BIG MATCH.
Joe Turner Meets Al ,Maupaus tn urs-
day Night at Gayety Theater:

A good, lively wrestling bout is sure to
be the outcome of the challenge of Al
Maupaus, champion lightweight of Can
ada, for a finish match, best two out of
three falls. with Joe Turner, world
middle-weight champion.
There is side bet of 500. and Mr..
Pack. manager of the Gayety Theater,
has put up a purse of $50 the winner
to take all.
Although Maupaus has something on
Turner in weight and is a very clever
man on the mat. as was shown in his
match with Link some time ago, Turner
is more than confident with his ability
in the game to throw his man, and this
match ought to prove one of interest
to all lovers of the sport.
