NRtionaI-1Sari.0

No need to go away from home for in
formation as to "Sari,' the operetta
Henry w. Savage will offer at the Ma
tional this week. Washington knows the
charm and excellence Of this musical
piece, for this city was the first in Amer
lea to see IT. T: judgment passed upon
It here was that it -exceIled in every re-
spect, and that judgment has been in
dorsed wherever ''Sari' has been. The
piece has not been forgotten here, could
not have been, for apart from the de-
Iightful memory II lett there have been
constant reminders OF It in the "Sari''
music which has been played everywhere
for a year and danced to by all who
dance.
The music is the best example Of Wen
nese compo IN that has come across
the water. 1t has individuality and va
riety. But "Sari'' has more than a score.
II has a book as well. There is a story
in the play, anc II is interesting. with
merry comedy, and quaint characters,
and bright wit, and q bit Of en.iment
There is a sharp contrast In the scenes
which change from Hungary to Paris.
The cast includes Mizzi Hajos, Charles
Meakins, Bert Gilbert, ]. K. Murray,
Irene Powlaska, 4 ward Marsh, and
others who have been. identified with the
American success OF the play. There Is
fine ensemble, and q big special or
chestra to do Justice to the. admirable
score. Mention Of the "Sari'' gowns
ought not be omitted. They are said TO
be several jumps ahead Of the fashion.

MORAL OF AN
OLD FABLE.

One Of the productions of Aesop
tells of discussion between a fox
and cat concerning the adroitness
necessary to escape packs of hounds.
Reynard said he had many tricks to
show them before he could be over
taken. Grimalkin sighed and replied:
"Alas, l have but one, and if it fail,
l will be undone."
A pack of hounds was about that
time drawing near. The cat darted
up tree, while the fox, with all its
tricks, was run down and torn to
pieces.
During the last two-score years
Germany, with its magnificent mill
tary requirements, has posed on dress
parade, seemingly asking who is
able to war with me?" 1t was gen.
orally believed in the fatherland that
one of the Kaiser's soldiers was equal
to four of any other nation. But
how actual results have shattered
such dreams is shown by the Prov
ess of the heretofore small and de-
spised Belgium, which has proven
such an impeachment to the iron heel
of the Teutonic nation And We read
that the dogs of the country, en-
ployed in times of peace in pulling
milk wagons in streets of Brussels,
are now drawing machine guns and
doing their part towards driving the
naughty Germans who are disposed
to make Belgium the passage way
to France.
