Last Nights Play.

THE Smart Set attracted a fair
sized crowd at the opera house last
night, the production being a good col
ored comedy, the company being well
known on the road, and bearing a good
reputation. The musical numbers were
popular with the audience, the Smart
Set" being a fairly clever skit well
done by number of well trained col
ored, comedians

"On the Wrong Side Of the Door,"
Billy" Richie, principa! comedian
of the Around the Clock company
now playing at the opera house.
Thursday, Jan. 4, is the son Of an
Episcopal Clergyman in and English
inland town. 1t cannot well be said
that Richie inherits any Of his fathers
talents, however. Funny falls and life
like limitations of a drunk hardly come
under the head of the accomplish
ments of an English rector. Young
Richie possessed a vein Of huElor
incident will reveal. and he liked moth
ing better than to play harmless jokes
upon hs doting father
One day a request reached the rec
tor, asking him to address a meeting
of young men who constituted a class
in political economy, which had been
organized in the interests of good local
government Political Rings" and
Pull" being equally we'll known in
that country as in this. The Rector
was wrapped in thought on his way to
the hall accompanied by his wise
young hopeful. Up to this moment the
rector had rot been able to hit upon Il
reluctantly impaired to the boy. As
they approa ched the door of the hal
in which the meeting was to take
place, the young fellow was suddenly
seized with an idea to play a prac-
teal joke on his father He points
to a small sign upon the door of the
hall which reads Push" There
Father, is a bully theme for your
~ -1g,
in this life, Push The old gentl,-
man instantly expressed his pleasure
and approval complimenting his son on
his ready assistance in finding sub
ject for talk, which he, himself, had
not been able to grasp. Well the rec
tor took the rostrum and began his
talk with reference to political rings,
corruption, graft and pull" all in
trodu Glory to the real theme of his re-
marks, the unfolding of which he was
making elaborate preparations. Then
raising his hand and pointing dramat-
ically to the door, which was plainly
visible to all, he said in a very loud
and effective voice There There
My young friend is word which
should be your motto in this fight for
political reform, follow that word and
you must succeed. That little sign
on the door :" OF course all looked
instinctively at the door, upon which
appeared the usual little blue enam-
eled sign, which was seen distinctly
by all present pull" A very au-
dible smoker led by young Richie,
preceded a loud and prolonged roar
of laughter, in which the rector was
not slow to join. No explanation was
necessary other than that which the
rector gave in ready response. He
said My inspiration for this address
came to me when / was on the outside,
coming in. But as you will observe,
it's different when you're on the in
side going out. The practical joke Of
the young fellow proved to be the most
enjoyable event of the evening.

"The Havoc.


Henry Miller will be seen at the
opera house, Jan. 3rd, for one night
only, in H. S. Sheldons remarkable
Pensa cola theatre goers with a record
of seasons run in New York and the
enthusiastic endorsement of every crit
ic in Chicago.
In the central characte of The
Havoc" Mr.. Miller has found a role
admirably suited to his direct, force
full methods, and in which, according .
many famous playrights and actors as
well as recognized dramatic critics he
is doing the most powerful acting Of
his career. His Richard Craig in The
Havoc is an absolutely, realistic por-
trait of self restraint tn; represents
the ideal of stocisn, losses aside re-
volver and, on the impulse Of the mo-
ment, adopts his wronger's cynical phi
losophy, awaiting with outward calm
ness the slow development of a cumu-
lative vengeance. more complete and
crushing than one of his own imme-
date execution.
During the three acts of THE
Havoc" Mr.. Miller displays every
phase Of his extraordinary talents for
big acting. AS in The Great Divide"
and The Only Way" he dominates
the tense situations Of his new play
by his quiet. studiously repressed, but
delicately suggested latent dynamic
strength of intellect and Unyielding
iron will. His reading Of the authors
satiric lines gives them the biting
quality of Damascus steel and his
facile. confident Interpretation of the
sardonic second-act comedy ont only
conveys the sting. but indicates the
double suggestion Of suppressed trag-
edy awaiting the moment to rise men
acingIy above the surface Of humor.
Mr. Miller is supported by every
member of the original company that
appeared with him throughout the
New York run. His engagement at the
opera house Jan. 3rd is positively for
one night only.

was not blind to the danger, always imminent, that both she and Sheldon ran. Neither of them ever ventured out without a revolver, and the sailors who stood the night watches by loans grass house were armed with rifles. But Joan inisted that this reign of ter TOT had been caused by the reign of fear practised by the white men. She had been brought up with the gentle Hawaiians, who never were illtreated nor roughly handled, and she general ized that the Solomon islanders, un- der kind treatment, would grow gentle.
 One evening a terrific uproar arose in the barracks, and Sheldon, aided by loans sailors, succeeded in res cuing two women whom the blacks were beating to death. To save them from the vengeance of the blacks they were guarded in the cook house for the night. They were the two women who did the cooking for the laborers, and their offense had consisted of one of them taking bath in the big cal dron in which the potatoes were boiled. The blacks were not outraged from the standpoint of cleanliness; they often took baths in the caldrons themselves. The trouble lay in that the bather had been low, degraded, wretched female, for to the Solomon islanders all fe- males are low, degraded and wretched.

A BUSINESS WOMAN. Marie Dressler Regards Her Success in ''Tillie's Nightmare" from Viewpoint of M0neymaker.

Marie, Dressler loves her art, oh yes, indeed she does; she loves il dearly, but some day when she has all the money she wants she is go- ing to travel She loves the good American eagle better than her ari and that is all she is in the bushes. for to-day. She has no "frills" like some of the stage celebrities; she has no pet, dogs nor does she believe that women ought to have the right of the ballot. All she wants is. her weekly salary-and it is a mighty best way to get it is work hard and amuse the public.
 2 'I don't believe in posing for arts sake, when as a matter of fact we are all out for the money" says Miss Dressler. "I am free enough to ad- money there is in it. It has taken years and years, of hard, very hard work on my part to reach the posi- ton, where can be at the head ot my own company, and now l am go- ing to give the public and my man. ager the best. work I have in me, and my hope is to make enough money Sc that I can forsake the stage and spend my time in travel. No, I'm not long ing for a home, either; I guess I am too spoiled by the life of travel, which this business requires, to care for 8 home. All I want is to go into un- frequented parts of the world ano see the different peoples and their habitations.
 1T know some of my brethren on the stage will probably raise their hands in horror when I tell the news papers that my object is to get all the money I can. I care nothing foy the glory and the glamour of the stage. It's only ephemeral at the best, but money is the substantial reward of one's labors and I believe that an actor should have and is en- titled to this reward just as much as anyone who has to work for a liv- ing. Don't infUf from my talk that I don't like the stage, for I do. If I did not like the work I would not be doing it.
 'I am glad that am able to make people laugh; make them forget their troubles and trials, their sorrows and the worries of the business days. am glad that the public likes me and my work for this means more money to me. Believe me, I know the val ue of money. I have had my trou- bles in that line, and I know how hard it is to get money when you need it most, and that is why I am working so hard all the time-to get enough money to be entirely indepen- dent. Why didn't I stay in vaude- vile if I wanted the money and noth- ing else? Because there is more money in musical comedy, especially at the head of ones own company, than there is in vaudeville
