ADJUSTMENTS
"Mignon" With New Cast,

The versatility of talent in the Aborn
Opera Company was again displayed last
night In the repetition OF "Mignon" with
| change OF singers in the cast Elena
Kirmes gave to the title role the triple
grace Of youth. a good voice and the pa
| thetic picturesqueness the part demands.
and as Fflena. Mabel Siemonn interpreted
the coQuettish actress with q piQnancy
that added its histrionic charm to her
singing. She was excellent throughout.
notably in the duet with Wilhelm Meis-
ter in the second act. but it was in the
Tftania" polonaise that she was accord
ed the recognition which an audience al
ways bestows upon the artistic rendition
of this conspicuously popular solo in the
score. Pilade Sinagra sang Wilhelm
Mefster In voice that has many silver
sweet tones in its upper register, and as
LothariO the old minstrel, Wilmot G..
Goodwin, repeated his success of the
| night before. Others who duplicated their
excellent work were Marie L. Biggers, as
Frederick, the jealous lover of Filena;
Rupert Henry. as the gypsy chief, and
Philip Fem, as Laertes the actor.
"The Hypocrites."
At the Belasco Theater next week the
Butterfield Players will present 1.-The
Hypocrites," a four-act comedy -dra ma
by Henry Arthur Jones, author Of such
successes as THE Case of Rebellious
Susan" 1.-THE Liars" THE Middleman,
Saints and Sinners and Mrs. Danes
Defense" However. his masterpiece is
generally considered to be The Hypo-
critics." which was seen here in 1907 at
the National Theater when presented
by Charles Frohman. after a seven
month run at the Hudson Tneater. New
York city.
1.-THE Hypocrites" is remarkable play.
The story is that of a girl who is willing
to sacrifice herself for the sake of the
man she loves-a story which has been
told in stageland and fiction for many
years, yet Mr.. Jones presents 1t in an
entirely new dress. Trenchant satire Is
to be found in almost every line of the
play, which is a keen indictment Of Ger
tain conditions that exist the world over.
AS every role in the play is an inter-
esting character study, the Butterfield
Players will have a better opportunity
to establish their merit than In anything
In which they have appeared this season.
The new leading woman, Miss Jane Mar
J bury. has a splendid part in the role
originally created by Miss Jessie Mill
ward; Everett Butterfield will assume the
| role created by Richard Bennett, and the
new leading man, Franklin Richie, will
make his first appearance with the COM
| pany in perhaps one Of the strongest and
most sympathetic roles ever written by
Henry Arthur Jones. The play will be
given an artistic mounting.

both cities called 1t the most popular Offer
ing OF the past decade.l So great was the
hold this fairy opera had on the public

GERMAN AIRSHIPS
CARRYING MAILS

BERLIN, Ger, June 25.-An inno
walton has recently been made in the
postal department by which Zeppelin
airships are used to carry mails on
their cruises between Baden Baden,
Frankfort, Dusseldorf and Darmstadt
The postcards are stamped with the
imperial aerial post" stamp, which 10
double the cost of an ordinary one.
They are collected from special of
fee, stamped on board the ship, and,
on landing, a specially appointed clerk
posts them to their destination from
an ordinary postoffice. >.
At present the aerial post is within,
being a novelty, and the stamps are
eagerly sought by philatelists. II, how
ever, as is predicted. the service is to
become of practical use, the price will
have to be lowered and the stability Of
the dirigibles to be above reproach.
Herr Euler, Germany's first aero
plane pilot, is now establishing an
aerial post for cards. They are
stamped with the imperial stamp and
bear the impress of the Euler biplane
yellow Dog" The service is to be
carried out daily from Frankfort
where the Euler flying school is stu

WAGNER least
KNOWN PLAYER

PITTSBURG, Pa.,Who is the
least understood man In baseball to-
day2 asks q sport writer In an article
in q local paper.
IL the writer was asked this ques.
zion ne would unhesitatirgiy say that
John Henry Wagner, the greatest
player of all times, Is the guilty one.
Honus. who is one of the best-na-
tured, biggest-hearted men in the
world, is understood only by those
with whom he comes into intimate
assication-his employers and his fel-
low players on the Pittsburg club. He
is diffident and not given to ostenta-
tious display. He minds his own bus
mess and shrinks from publicity. On
this account he is considered by some
as being a 'swell-headed German" a
troublemaker and a pampered pet
whose every wish as regards his con-
nection with the Pittsburg club must
be acceeded to by his teammates and
by Manager Fred Clarke and Presi-
dent Barney Dreyfuss.
Those OF you who believe that Wag.
ner is not subjected to the same rules
the same discipline-as the other
members of the Pirate organization
would do well to preserve silence on
this subject when Clarke is in ear
shot. g..
Manager Clarks is first and last a
disciplinarian. He exacts the last
ounce of obedience from every man
under his care. When he gives an
order he expects that order to be
obeyed. The man who fails or re-
fuses to do as told is not wanted on
the Pittsburg team. The players
IWagner included) know this and
there Is seldom any trouble.

COLONEL AND, WILSON
FAVOR 3-CENT PIECE

WASHINGTON, July 25.-Mcyor
Baker, of Cleveland, has found many
prominent advocates of the bill intro
duced by Representative Buckley of
Ohio providing for the coinage of a
three-cent piece. Buckley gave the
letters to the Senate committee on
finance when he urged yesterday the
passage of the law.
Among them is one by Andrew Car
negie indorsing the idea If the coin
IS not too small" Mayor Gaynor, of
New York, objects to call the new
money coin" and prefers token, "
He says tie "five-cent token" has
done inestimable good for the country
and established a small price for a
number of necessities, such as car
fares.
Theodore Roosevelt writes, Pr1t
strikes me as a first-class suggestion.
and will gladly back it up"
Woodrow Wilson, Governor of New
Jersey, says: Let me snatch mo-
ment of a crowded day to say that
take great pleasure in authorizing the
use of my name in connection with a
memorial to the Senate favoring the
coinage of a three-cent piece"
Other letters read were ty Miss
Jane Adams, of Hull House, Chicago:
w. U'Ren. of Oregon, and President
Hadley, of Yale.

The Crews

COMMENCING next Thursday, the
Healani oarsmen will get right
down to business, and the senior
Junior and Freshman crews that
VIII try for honors Regatta Day
will be tentatively picked. To date
the rowing men have been split I'D
between the various boats, but from
the latter part of the week on, the
best men in each division will be seq
regated, with the idea of finding the
strongest crews and settling down. to
serious practise @..... .
Fred Wichman, the crack No. 6 OF
this years victorious Stanford crew,
will row for the Healanis this year,
and will begin turning out regularly
this week. Wichman has been rowing
In a shell for SO long that he finds
some difficulty in adjusting himself
to barge form and the slower stroke.

and 30 is an exhausting clip for hit

to rowing round 40, find 1t hard to
get into the slower swing, but WITCH
man Is finished oarsman and he will
probably catch on in short order Word
comes from the Coast that In the
four-oared barge races the crack
crews hit up a very fast stroke, but
how they do it is mystery to the
locals, who show the true Missouri
spirit when they hear tales OF a 40
CLIP by the Alamedas:
On Thursday the Healanis will Sc
cure a ~power launch, which will be
at their disposal regularly until Re
gatta Day for the use of the coaches,
who will then be able to chug-chug
along behind and shout admonition
and abuse at the toilers of the deep
in most approved fashion. ~.
Jim Lloyd, Paul Jarrett and Captain
Laurence Cunha expect II give lot
of their time t6 COACHING from now
until the big day, and. altogether, the
game has caught its second wind and
taken a jump forward with the Hea-
lanis. ~ y. 49,
To Have Launch. -.
At a meeting of the finance COM
mittee of the club the other day. an
expenditure of $500 for new oars and
$50 for boat fittings was authorized.
The new barge is expected from the
Coast shortly, and from descriptions
1t will be the most upto-date barge in
Hawaiian waters. x : 4
The Healanis are fortunate in hav.
ing two good coxswains, capable Of
handling both the six-oared barges,
which are heavy steering, and the
pair-oars. Frank Kruger, who steered
the senior boat last year, and VIM.
Rowatt, who weighs only rs pounds,
but knows all the tricks of the game,
are both available to handle the lines.

Gently from a trip to Russia, where
he had been introducing the American
trotting horse. ..:-.
Mr.. Billings took string of seven
trotters with him. His horses raced at

Ell their sporting spirit centers on
the horse" "
Mr.. Billings found the Russians
very sportsmanlike and accustomed
to place big bets on their favorites.
While at Moscow, where he had
been invited to attend the national
horse show by Count Telletine, Mr..
Billings was driven by. the count per-
scnally to the banquet in a drosky
drawn by three superb Orlof horses.
After the banquet the count asked
his guest If he admired the horses.
"They are magnificent" replied Mr..
Billings. =.
"Will you he pleased to accept
them?" asked his host. ~
Mr.. Billings demurred, but feeling
that he would otherwise offend the
count, accepted the gift. u
