DADDIRS, CHARMS
BELASCO AUDIENCE
War Provides Background for
Comedy by John L. Hobble,
unknown" Author.

JEANNE EAGEES WINNING
New Actress Enjoys Triumph
in Part Peculiarly Suited
to Her.
"Dadsiies." at the BeIasco Theatre.

The Beiasco Theatre opened its doors
last night for the present season. This
is by no means, unprecedented during
the last month. Many threatres have
opened their doors. But the special elo-
quence that attaches to the report in
the case of Mr.. Belasco's theatre rests
on conditions that did not exist in the
other instances,
The New York public knows by this
time that theatre" in its finest estate
is to be found in the playhouse In West
Forty-fourth. street. Thearegoers know
that here there will be the Anal utiliza-
ton Of every possibility that play
acted here contains. The mind Of Mr..
Beiasco will work out to its minutest
detail every inspiration that the au-
thor's work possesses. This happy in
dividnal will have no cause for COM
plant that he has worked IN vain.
SO last nights audience. accustomed
to a high standard from the director Of
the theatre, waited in eagerness the
divulgence Of 'DRddies," which Is called
a comedy. with the unknown name of
John l.. Hobble affixed as its author.
Even II there liz not always the same
certainty concerning the material that
there is, about the treatment the re-
ward IL sure enough to come. Such has
been the experience of those who were
curious in advance about the Belasco's
new play as we'll as the Belasco's new
actress For. following his usual plan.
Mr.. Belasco had a new figure in Jeanne
Eagels, who has already attracted at
tention In other quarters through her
youth and beauty.
War Background Of the Play.
What the Dress agents of publicity In
the theatre now call war back
ground exists in "Daddies" through
the orphans from the fighting countries
that are adopted by n quintet OF bach
elors. One who might almost be called
a woman hater finds himself with girl
OF II on hts hands. Another who ex-
pected that n boy would be his lot has
girl assigned to him. while to another
there goes the ordeal of a set of triplets.
It takes four acts once this situation
has been established for the inevitable
consequences to ensue. They pass in
the living room and the study Of home
on the Hudson.
VI All lhe aCtors iitefest Hdturdiiy
centred in Miss Eagels Last season she
made an exquisite picture of early nine
tenth century beauty in Hamilton"
with George Arliss. Previously she had
appeared in unimportant characters in
other dramatic companies. 1t was OBJ
vious last winter that she was destined
for greater Importance in the theatre
and last night under the Belasco agis
she was put TO the test. The young
actress came through 1t most success
fully. Indeed she enjoyed pretty tri-
umph with the audience. Her first scene
Of belated seasickness was acted with
irresistible humor and the utmost
delicacy. Later her Mayday beauty was
clouded occasionally with the traces OF
genuine girlish emotion. Rarely has an
unknown actress captivated her audience
SO completely as Miss Eagels did.

INSPIRING WORDS FOR
OUR BRAVE LADS

In a recent letter from France to
his mother, Harris Lyons says: Il
am enclosing a couple of clippings,
one is the order issued by the French
General to his command previous to
the last operations, one of the great
est things l ever read. Could a man
fail in his duty with such words as
these in his mind?
"The following Order of the Day"
to the French and American soldiers
Of the army, issued by General Gou-
rand on July II, 1918, just 8 days
prior to the beginning of the German
Offensive:-
"We are liable to be attacked at
any Moment-- you are fighting on
ground which your incessant work
has made into fortress that will
prove impregnable as all the passages
are well guarded. The bombardment
will be terrible, but you will endure
it without flinching---. The brave
and strong hearts of free men are
beating III your breasts, no one will
look backward, ne one will retreat
single step, no one will have any
thought but to kill as many of the
enemy as possible unil they have had
enough; and this is why your general
tells you yoH will shatter this attack,
and it will be a great day.
The other clipping is the citation
given Guyenemer, the famous French
Aviator.
The 26th and last citation of the
French Government to Guyenemer
French Avion, officially credited with
bringing down So enemy machines
"Died on the Field of honor the 11th
of September 1917. Legendary
hero fallen from the free heavens Of
glory after three years of ardent
combat. He will always remain the
purest symbol of the qualities of the
race; indomitable tenacity, ferocious
energy, sublime courage animated by
by an unshakeable faith in victory
he bequeathes to the French soldier
an imperishable souvenir which will
exult the spirit of sacrifice, and which
will envoke the most noble emula-
ton"
Isn't that a great tribute? There
is no doubt of victorious end to this
struggle in the mind of single Am
erican in France.

HOSPITALS TO CARE FOR
SOLDIERS WITH BAD LUNGS

A total of 2l0 soldiers dismissed
from active service mostly at Camp
Kearny at Linda Vista and now in
New Mexico, who claim that they
have developed tuberculosis since
their induction to the army, are list
ed in files being kept by Governor
Lindsey, who is in corresondence
with the federal authorities request
ing that the government bear at
least part of their hospital expenses
He claims that since these men were
passed by medical boards, acting for
the government they are now a fed
eral charge. Some of them are IN
acute need of hospital attention. 9th
ers are doing light labor, but need
medical care.
The Governor has written ten hos
pitals of the state which since 1890
have been receiving about $4,000
from the state funds each year ask
ing them to make a special patriotic
effort to care for these men. The
miners hosital at Ration has respond
ed notably, offering to take as many
as rs patients. Three other hospitals
heard from give far less gratifying
reports.

BILL. BOOZE TO HAVE
NATIONAL FUNERAL JAN. I,
IS FIAT OF SENATE COM.

Washington, July 8-Legislation
to prohibit the sale of distilled liquors
wine and beer after January |, 1919
and to prohibit the manufacture of
wine and beer after November l, next
was agreed upon today by the senate
agriculture committee
The legislation is proposed as a sub
stitute for the pending Norris
amendment to the emergency agricul-
turai appropriation bill which would
stop the sale of distilled liquor and
wine on June 30, 1919 and prohibit
the manufacture of beer three
months after the bill becomes law.
The changes had been discussed
for a number of days so that when
the committee met today action was
practically by unanimous consent
without second vote.
By fixing a definite date after
which the sale would be prohibited Of
all Intoxicating liquors. members of
the committee believe that any
charge of discrimination would be
avoided. They say wine growers
would be enabled to dispose of this
years crop while brewers could make
use of their entire supply of malt.

On the other hand Governor Can

5000 900 GRAIN CROP
MAY BE TOTAL OF STATE

Estimates quoted from A. M. Ber-
gere of the field force of the state
tax commission in the Santa Fe New
Mexican, indicate that the grain to-
tai for the state may reach $8,000,000
this year. An increase in total valua-
tions of fully $5,0O0,0O0 on all lines
Of property is predicted.
Santa Fe county alone will increase
IN valuations from one half to three
fourths of million. Taos may show
4 gain of million, and Rio Ariba
probably up to a million and half.
These gains will be partially offset
BY stock losses due to drouth this
year, especially in the southwest.
The state tax commission will open
. session on next Monday the 18th
to adjust complaints against unequal
assessments. San Juan county is the
first in the state to send in a COM
pfete assessment roll for the year.
