Pastime Theater.
Manager Hobgood of the Pastime
Theater certainly made no mistake
when he retained the Ford & Pear
sons big spectacular show company to
present the beautiful Chinese musical
fantasy, "The Green Dragon" From
the special scenery to the beautiful
costumes everything is realistic and
the portrayal of the slave girl, Madge
of the underworld, and Slim Coburn,
the Barbary Kid in the dens where
the evils of the opium and Chinese
slave girl traffic are exposed, are very
vivid and thrillingly dramatic. Mr.
Pearson is well able to exploit these
terrible evils as he was official guide
in the Old Chinatown and the opium
pipes and layouts. etc., in his pos
session. We're taken from the under
ground dwellings which were reached
by tortuous windings and secret pas
sages and hidden staircases, in a
raid by the United States marshals in
1896. Miss Letha Trecarten deserves

which she portrayed the luck Josh

General Bliss has been given the
credit for drafting the American docu
ment which played an important part
in converting the Allies to the plan

Secretary cf State Lansing has been
throughout the war faithful follower

Moore as counsellor Of the State De-

early in Mr. Wilson's first administra-

OF aspersions cast on the Portuguese

A telegram was sent to the Portu-
guese Minister at Washington, urging
immediate action on what was termed
"a gross insult to Portugal and her

Lieutenant Monteiro Comes. of the

Fear We Are OutcIassed

"If it is true that England has ap-
pointed Lloyd George, Balfour, Asquith
and Reading as four of her peace COM
missioners," said one Republican Sen
ator, 1--WE will certainly be terribly out
classed at the peace table"
1t was pointed out by critics that
Mr.. Wilson had kept the commission
ers, except Mr.. White, of course,
strictly in his own official family.
Colonel House has been the Presi-
dents personal agent during his en-
tire administration. Mr.. Lansing, of
course, the Republicans say, has been
the instrument through which the
President has conducted the State De-
partment since the resignation of
Bryan, while General Bliss, as an
army officer, is Of course subject to
the commands of his commander in
chief.
General Bliss has been in the army
since his West Point days, which be-
gan in 1871. AS far as fellow army
officers know he had no political afil
iation. He served with the Root Com
mission in framing the treaty with
Cuba and was collector of customs
during the first American Intervention
in Cuba. He also aided in prOmulgat
ing the commercial treaty with Cuba.
