PLAYHOUSE ABANDONED
FOR COLUMBIA THEATER
Demand to See Miss Mabel Talafero
Requires Change to Larger House
of Amusement.
TO GIVE DOUBLE BILL FRIDAY

Owing to the limited capacity of The
Playhouse and the fact that Miss Mabel
TaIiaferro will be unable to prolong her
stay until Saturday. it has been decided
to take the production of THE Dumb
Cake" and 'Pippa Passes to the Co.
lumbia Theater, where the two plays
will be given on Friday afternoon, at
3 O'Clock.
Miss Taliaferro's rendition of Brown
ing's wonderful classic "Pippa Passes"
won for her a recognized place in star
dom even before her famous Polly Of
the Circus"
"Pippa Passes" will be followed by
and Richard Pryce, entitled THE Dumb
Cake
The action of the piece is based on
an old legend of All Hallows' Eve. The
scene is laid on London almshouse
where Martha Hardy and her bedridden
mother are inmates. Martha's life has
been a very restricted one. and when
old Mrs. Nye, a loquacious neighbor,
tells her that the dumb cake baked
three days before All HaIlows' Eve and
placed upon a table with a mug of
beer at midnight and the door left con-
veniently open will charm to it the
man tne maker OF the CAKE Is destined
to wed, Martha believes II.
She tries the experiment. and at L.
O'Clock Spotto Byrd, a pickpocket flee
ing from the police sees the open door
and dashes in for safety. Martha be-
lieves her future husband has come and
the beauty and purity of her character
as against that of the criminal furnishes
the foundation for a beautiful story
sparkling in with comedy, and sweet i'm
its ending.

PORTO RICANS OPPOSE
THE SUGAR SCHEDULE
DELEGATION Arrives from the Island to
Defend Its Economic
Interests.
MANY ARGUMENTS ARE MADE

An official delegation, appointed by a
special act of the Legislature of Porto
Rico for the purpose of representing and
defending the economic interests of the
island. has just arrived in Washington.
The delegation is here to protest against
the placing of sugar on the free list
and against the reduction of the tariff
on fruits, as provided by the tariff bill,
and to show that the passing or such
bill would completely destroy the moral
progress and the material prosperity of
the island.
The delegation is stopping at the
Raleigh, and is formed by Hon. Jose de
Diego, Speaker of the House of Dele
gates, as chairman; Hon. Marun Ira
vieso, jr., president of the Executive
Council vice chairman, and Ness rs.
Carlos Cabrera and Hector H. Scoville,
prominent planters and business men.
Their argument against the placing of
sugar on the free list and against the
reduction of the tariff on fruit is based
on these four principal points:
The paralyzation and destruction of the
actual progress made by the island in
public education.
The paralyzation of the progress OF, the
island In public works and in the work
of sanitation.
The throwing into poverty and misery
of 7S,o00 families of laborers, represent
ing four hundred thousand men, women,
and children.
The weakening of the ties of affection
existing between the people of Porto
Rico and the people of the United
States

SPLED VERSUS ARMOR.
General Board of Navy Soon to
Decide Policy to be Pursued.

Whether the United States Navy shall
adopt for the future the battleshp of at
least twenty-five knots speed. instead of
twenty knots. is a question which will
be taken up soon by the general board
of the navy, of which Admiral Dewey
is the head Some members of the
board have declared themselves in favor
of such a type of vessel, and are ar
ranging to bring the matter before the
nava, council.
Many members of the general board
are not in favor of the proposed type
of hattleship. They argue that IL the
speed is to. he increased to twenty five
kno,s. then either reductions must be
MADE in guns and arTnor. or else the
size Of the vessel must be increased
Tie proposed type of vessel is in ac-
cordance with the British plan of build
Ing battleships with high speed. The
German idea is TO build battle cruisers,
that is, speedy vessels which acquire
their speed at a sacrifice of armor pro-
lection.
