This delightful operatta was in
three acts. In act first a fete is
held to celebrate the coming Of
age of the Emperor's daughter,
the latter role being played by
Miss Thelma Guidry, who looked
very sweet in her japanese cos
tune and sang the score very
correctly, especially in the lower
and middle register, giving on
the whole a very pleasing rendi-
ton of the part. The Princess
is loved by Prince So Tru and re-
ciprocates his affections, the
Princes role was played by Lilo
mel Castillo, who did remarkably
we'll, in a sweet tenor voice, his
recitation was we'll well deliver
ed. giving promise of future
ability in the role of love maker;
his rival Prince So Sill was play
ed pleasingly by Albert Megin-
mis-. Prince So Sill seeks the
malignant aid of Saucer Eyes.
the wizard cat. who carried off
the Princess to the cave of inky
night. The difficult role Of cat
was we'll played by Aubry San
doz, whose eloquent words at
times were muff1ed by the enor-
nous PAPER mache head of the
cat.
Act second reveals the Prin-
cess in the cave; by means of a
magic ring she summons the
good fairy Moonbeam, but at a
critical moment she loses the
magic ring and the fairy van
ishes into thin air. Prince So
Tru. who ahas valiantly forced

Dear Sir:
I wish to say that the Odds Engine
that ! bought from you is q good one,
and is just as you represented it to me,
doing all that / can ask of an engine,
and at a very low cost Of fuel, the
expense of operating is only a trifle,
and the work is satisfactory; would not
be without one.
Yours truly,

"The Girl In waiting"

The author of The Girl in Waiting"
is entitled to the regular quota Of praise
due on account OF a bright, lively and
laughable farce-comedy, but then the
measure should be heaped. because ne
has dared to give us hero who not
merely lacks the conventional graces Of
the matinee idol, but is frankly and de-
liciously absurd. Mr.. Van Buren's rem

and yet likeable enough for the audience
to be willing that the charming heroine
should marry him.

THEY'LL HEAR OF USl"

The Democratic members Of the House
Rules Committee. constituting the ma
Jority. failed to meet the scores OF women
suffragists who went to the Capitol yes
terday to ask the committee to report
out the resolution providing for consid-
eration Of the -MondeIl suffrage
resolution.
Acting Chairman Pou, OF North Caro-
lima. and other Democrats were smoked
out OF their offices. but to little avail II
was the largest delegation Of women that
has ever called on the members to urge
the cause. but after their visit TO Repre-
sentative Pou they became convinced the
majority Of the committee would not
break their agreement not to hold any
more meetings in Jcly.
Met I'm Rotunda.
The women were met in the Capitol
roturfda by Representative Frank w
Mondell, OF Wyoming; NJ. Clyde Kelly,
the only Progressive meber OF the Rules
Committee. and Representative Irvine
Lnroot, a Republican member.
Mr.. Nondell presented for their sigma
tures 20 thu two members Of the Rules
COMMITTEES q petition addressed 70 Rep
resentative Pou. OF North Carolina, act
ing chairman Of the committee asking
him to call a meeting of the committee
within a week. Replying. Representative
Lenroot stated the women would have
20 concentrate their attack upon the
Democratic majority Of the committee for
the time being. at least. saying the
minority was powerless.
Assaiis Powers That BE. .
Representative Kelly assaIIed the
power Of the Rules Committee. which he
said nullines the will of the majority OF
the House. Both Lenroot and Kelly
signed 'the petition. Representative Gar
rett, Of Tennessee. Democratic member Of
the committee, refused to sign. The dele
cation then went to the once OF Mr..
Foster. Of Illinois, a Democratic member
of the committee. where Mrs. George
Odeil. OF Illinois. made herself comfort
able until he returned. Then she pleaded
with him. The delegation went thence
TO the once OF Representative Pou. who
replied he would not violate the agree
ment OF the Democratic members not TO
hold any meeting until the hrst OF Al
gust.
After a heated coIIouy between Mr.
Pou and Miss Alice Paul. chairman Of
the Congressional Union, the delegation
went to the once OF Representative
Campbell, OF Kansas. who assured them
that unfortunately he could do moth
ing. Miss Alice Paul yesterday after
noon said:
"once again the Democratic party has
gone on record as refusing its aid 10
the suffrage cause. We have received
no clearer illustration Of It's opposition
than that accorded to US this day.

It's ranks women who have long aided II
and trusted In IT, II will Inevitably feel
