SULTAN VISITED BY
 WOMEN'S DELEGATION

Constantinople, September 30-(Spc- eial. .)-For the first time in the history of Turkey a deputation of women has been received by the Sultan who has promised to do what he can to iin- prove the lot of Ottoman women. The women all wore European clothes but were thickly yelled and. were led by the wife of Towfik Paslla, the Young Turk leader. and the sister of Ahmet Riza, the president of the Turkish par lament. On being admitted to the Sultans presence the women threw themselves at his fecr and complained that the leaders, of the women's re- form movement were being persecuted, also asking for the suspension of the edict banlshing Fclubss orlwomen.
 Emboldened by their success, the women next called upon the grand vizler,, IIakki Pasha, wlio, however, sent out word that she was engaged. The deputation patiently replied that they would wait and finally they were admitted. The grand vizier is married to a Yiennese and is known for his liberal views. so the deputation begged him not to resign office and to advance their cause. Hakkis Pasha, however, would not bind himself to anything.

LYcEuM.

lYcEuM.
AS Phoebe Fuckers, the smutty-
faced slavey in A Prince Chap,
which is ebeing revived by the
Vaughan Chaser organization In the
Lyceum theater this week. Miss Fay
Courteney contributes one OF the
most interesting portrayals she has
ever given the local stage. II would
seem TO be a rather odd part for a
woman accustomed TO playing only
leads" but her Phoebe Is SO splen-
didly done that II is really an indis-
pensible part OF the performance. IL
Is the very backbone of the comedy
that runs through the three acts, and
the appearance OF the little beggar. In
her tattered garments. her frowsled
head aud her soot-begrimed counte-
nance is invariably a signal for a
storm OF laughter.
And the character loses none OF Its
picturesqueness when, after sup
posed lapse OF 10 years, Phoebe calls
at the fashionable London home or
the artist, Payton, whose boots she
had been wont TO black In the. old
days. and announces with pardonable
pride that she is understudy TO the
bareback rider in a circus and Is en-
gagged TO marry the balloonist
The story of 1.-The Prince Chap" Is
familiar 10 most Lyceum patrons. IL
was written by Edward Peple and
the program calls II a child play, from
the fact that the story centers about
little girl, Claudia, daughter OF an
artist model. When the mother dies.
Peyton. a young American artist. who
Is struggling for recognition In Lon
don, undertakes to care for the child
and rears her as though she were
his own. The child is the means OF
separating Peyton. whom little Clau-
dia has christened "the Prince Chap"
from his American sweetheart, but
sweet compensation comes in the final
scene. when he discovers that the
woman his heart really yearns for Is
Claudia, now a beautiful girl OF 18
years, and his affection Is reciprocal
ed.
II is a pretty story, we'll told and
well staged as are all the CHASER pro-
auctions. The Misses Viva and Kath-
ieen Brown are seen as Claudia. in
the first and second acts, respective
ly, and the elder OF the sisters rem
ders especially capable service. Miss
Temperance Reid. as Claudia at Is.
invests the part with much charm and
gives a portrayal that is satisfactory
In every way. Mr. Chaser, of course.
is Peyton and his work is fully up to
standard. James Hester makes a cap

sweetheart, presents a stunning APP
pearance and plays the part with un-

the company are well placed. The Of

When II became certain that water

THE situation Is worse than any
body can realize. More than 200 dwell
ings have been destroyed and their
occupants rendered homeless. Al
though most of these are people or

stunts into his part as tramp com
