New York, Jan. 9.-"We Can't BE

ing at the Hazimova theater, can GER
tainly be called one of the cleverest
works produced by Henry Arthur
Jones. This. according to Mr.. Jones
own calculation is his SEVENTEEN
play Including. of course, one act
sketches, etc. II has much Of the
strength of the celebrated Mrs.
Danes Defense" and shows that Mr..
Jones skill is in no way diminished
and his wit by no means impaired. He
has taken for his subject certain
phase of English society, the picture
of which he believes will lead many
to exclaim with George Meredith,
I'VE can't be as bad as all that"
Lulu CHASER continues her eminently
successful engagement in The Girl

theater under the management of the
Messrs. Shubert The operetta is an
American version of one of the most

and kindred business reforms will
serve to scale down the government
expenditures many millions OF dollars
yearly but that the figure will ever
deems utterly impossible.
The total ordinary expenditures of
the government last year" said a
prominent treasury official. were
less than $500, 100000 greater part
of which is not reducable, as, for cv
ample interest on the public debt and
$500, 900 900 is left on which to run
the government and on which to save
100000 as proposed by Senator
Aldrich
Now if the public has in mind a
saving of s300000.000 a year during
the present administration, it will
find fault with the amount which will
eventually be cut from the expenses.
Such misconception is harmful and
steps should be taken to set the mat
ter of departmental economy before
the people in its true light"
Besides the reforms already accom-
plished Secretary Mac Veagh advo-
Gates the elimination of a large num-
Der of customs ports that are of no
use. and some of the assay offices
and minis that perform no service.
In Secretary Mac Veagh's opinion
NEST Of the assay offices are super
fluous and the minis in Philadelphia,
Denver and San Francisco are not
fully employed.
While a great saving has been eff
fected by past reforms and will be af-
focted I'm the future, the considera-
ton of economy does not especially
mean that there will be a reduction in
