Captain Cutie is only one of the
dozen of Dickens character-imper-
sonations on the Chautauqua plat
fom in the entertainment, Life
Portrayals." Mr.. William Sterling
BATHS takes the part of a toothless
old woman as realistically as he
apes the airs and fine speeches of a
third-rate gentleman like Micawber.
His monologues are his master
achievements. Few living actors have
voices of such range. One of the
most novel features of the evening 5
program is this: The wigs, grease
paint, costumes and everything in the
makeup of the different characters
is put off and on in plain sight of
the wondering audience.

President NcrNiH1 Over
Situation In Republic.
WILSON ANXlOUSLY AWAITED
Conflicting Accounts of Conditions Give
Rise to Belief That Crisis Is Near.
Mrs. Hadsro Rsiterates That
Her Husband Was Siam.

Washington, July 81. Continued
uneasiness regarding the Mexican stu
alton worries the Wilson administra-
ton, and it is felt that an actual crisis
of serious nature cannot longer be
delayed.
The lack of authentic information,
or rather the contradictory reports
received from American officials, in
Guiding the ambassador and the long
list of consuls throughout the country,
has left President Wilson and his ad-
visers in the dark as to the actual con-
dition of affairs in the much disturbed
republic.
Furthermore, hints from Europe
that the United States must intervene
to put an end to the virtual anarchy
which persists under the Huerta rule
are embarrassing the president, and
his belief that the Huerta government,
founded on intrigue and assassination,
Is weak has caused him to withhold
recognition.
William Bayard Hale, biographer
and trusted friend of President Will
son. has sent confidential reports of
the Mexican situation to Washington.
Persons who have talked with Mr..
Hale assert that these reports are at
wide variance with the official ac-
counts of conditions furnished by Am
bassador Wilson and hint that Mr..
Hales disclosures are of most star
Ting description.
Doubt Story of Madero's Death.
While it is not denied that Ambassa-
dor Wilson has left the Washington
administration in perplexity as to the
situation, no official criticism of him
has as yet been made.
Mr. Bryan, the secretary of state,
las specifically denied that Ambassa-
dor Wilson's conduct was under in
vestigation. 1t is fact, however, that
Mr.. Wilson's prompt acceptance of the
Huerta account of Maderos death has
not been indorsed at Washington.
The presidents refusal to grant rec
ognition to the Huerta government is
taken as sufficient proof that he did
not accept the official story of Ma
deros death.
Mrs. Francisco l. Madero, widow of
the late president of Mexico, who is in
this city, declares that her husband
was slain in his bed while he slept,
instead of while trying to escape. She
denies the statement that he was be-
ing transferred to the penitentiary and
killed on the way. The actual assas.
sin, she charges, was Colonel Carde-
mas, then a captain, and she asserts
that this man has since exhibited q
knife as the weapon with which he
stabbed Madero.
"Mexico," said Mrs. Madero, "has
come to a sad state when there is even
discussion of such a man as Huerta
for a ruler. Who accepts Genera
Huerta accepts his acts"
Emphatic denial has been made by
Senor Jose Yves Limantour, formerly
minister of finance in Mexico, who Is
now in Deauville, France, of the re
port that he has bee,- using his infu
ence with European diplomatists il
the hope of Fastening American recog
milton of the Huerta government
