Grant's remains ‘ought not to be removed to Arlington, but that Congress should make an appropriation to complete the monument which the city of New York agreed to build, and assigns as 9 reason therefor that “the state of New York sent more men to the war than any other If it be placed on that ground, then the Dis- trict is entitled to the custody of his remains; for, while New York did not fill her quota by 58,298 men—113< per cent less than her quota— the little despised District of Columbia fillea her quota and furnished 1834 per cent more ‘than her quota. In other words, the District of Columbia furnished 30 per cent more in proportion to on did the great state of New fork. And yet it was urged that the Grand Army reunion ought not to be held here be- cause the of the District were disloyal. As shown by the report of the adjutant gen- ersl’s ofice the District furnished more men in proportion to population for the Union than any state in the Union except Kansas, and had the “home guards,” companies composed of department and other em; es, been included here as they were in Kansas the District would have exceiled even that state. sa. W. C. Dopaz. —-—— ‘The Police Force and the Army. ‘To the Editor of The Evening Star: The sneering allusions of J. Emner, jr., in Tegard to the morale of the United States army will only serve to convince fair-minded people that that person having some grudge ‘Against the police force for the discharge of their duties (in which perhaps his toes were trod upon) desires to vent his spleen on the army in general. From the tone of his one would infer that the whole United States army wasa band of organized cutthroats and desperadoes of the worst type. As to the Misdoings of Officers Burns, Murphy or any others he refers to, it is very poor argument to use the army, for if he makes inquiries be will Sind that the standing of the Washing- ton police force, as far as efficiency and bebavior are concerned, compares favorably with that of any of the larger cities where citi- zens are selected from. Perbaps our frieud be- longs to that class who require to be “run in” nowand then,inwhich event I am notat.allaston- ished at bis experience being varied and dis- agreeable with the privates. As for majors it is doubtful if heever had any experience, direct or indirect, with them. I would suggest ‘that if Mr. Emner desires to be regarded asa true citizen be should try to ‘evercome his unreasonable antipatiy to every- pon bee wears the blue, for he will find them intellectually, physically and morally as fine a class of men as any country produces, and I speak impartially, never having been in the army, nor have I any relatives in either the police or army.

This debate took place last ‘Thursday, and the Harvard boys won. ‘The subject under discussion was, “Resolved, that young man casting his first ballot in 1892 should vote for the nominees of the democratic party.” Surbridge was chosen, with two others, to confront the Yale debaters. He is said to be the ablest debater in the Harvard Union. The Boston Kecord, speaking of him, cord, said: “RC. Surbridge of the Harvard Law School fairly carried off the honors of the evening. He has a pleasing personality, an eloquent delivery, clear enunciation and a style sutticiently aggressive to verge, upon the caustic.

D.c. TUESDAY, JANUARY 19, 1892 AMUSEMENTS. ALnavon's.—An audience remarkable for its size, considering the bad weather, greeted first representation in this city of Smith and Koven's opera, “Robin Hood,” at Albaug! ra House inst night. It was a friend! dience, and all the well-known members of that excellent company, the ostonians, were heartily greeted as they made their appear- ‘The music ot “Robin Hood,” while it ix decidedly reminiscent at times, ix bright and sparkling and affords opportunity for good work, both for principals and chorus. That this ‘opportunity was fully improved was evidenced by the frequency of the encores. The audience reiused to be satinfied and eighteen numbers were obliged to be repeated. ‘This abundantly testified to the satisfaction of the listeners as well as to the generous complinnce of the singers. ‘The book of the opera is filled with witty lines and the whole dialogue is sharp and crisp, much superior to the libretto of’ comic opera. The cast in Tom Karl, Macdonald, Barnabee, Frothingham, Cowles, Lang, Camiila D'Arville. Jessie Lartlett Davis, Josephine Bartlett and Isabella Ulmer, andeach was fully up to requirements both in singing and acting. Mins D'Arville as Maid Marion made an exceedingly favorable impression, her voice being pure and weil trained, and she acted with grace and Vivaeity. Jessie Bartlett Davis made a hand- some Allan-a-Liale aud her giorious contralto Voice was heard to great advantage, especially in the song “0! Promive Me" in the second act. Tom Karl, in the title ,role, had » part that fitted him and he added new laurels to his well-earned reputation. Barnabee, as the Sheriff, got all the fun out of the part that wax ossible, and also had opportunities for sing- ng well, which he imprgved. ‘There ix no com- stage who combines, the ity in so high a degree, emphatic — approval re- but a just recognition of his Powers, Macdonald's fine baritone voice and manly presence made prominent the part of Little John, and his singing of “Lhe Soug of Brown October Ale” was one of the hits of the evening. Eugene Cowles made an effective Will Scarict, and his powerful but musical bass voice found good expression in tke Crow and Anvil songs. The rest of the cast was all that could be desired, and the chorus was large and etti- | cient. The orchestra, under the control of Dir. Sam. L. Studley, rendered effective aid, and the stage mounting deserves warm commendation. “Kobin Hood” certainly scored a decided sue- cess and good houses during itsentire stay may be safely predicted. Aguin tonight. NaTiONAL Tueatex.—The famous stock com- pany formerly attached to the court theater of ‘the Duke of Saxe-Meinningen, or a good pro- portion of it, appeared at the Nationat Theater t night in’ Schlegel’s translation of Shakes- peare’s “Julius Casur." ‘The feature of the performance was the splendid mounting of the jiece, the scenery, properties and costumes ing ona more éluborate scale than fins ever before been seen in this city. The cast was of even excellence and the principals were earnest and sincere in their efforts, In some instances the con- ceptions were different from thoxe that we ve been accustomed to, but euch showed the result of careful atudy and conscientious effort. ‘The Cesar of Hilmar Know was invested with adignity and power that Englih speaking actors who essay this part would do well to study and which gave the chatacters promi- nence that it seldom In fact it was the most satisfactory of the entire cast, though Mathieu Pfeil sx Brutus, Carl Eckelmann as Cassius, Richard | Oeser as = Mare Anton: were effective in their respective characters and received much applause for their efforts. The mob, which in the general representations of this tragedy is a source of amusement to the andi- ence, last night gave the most realistic and fective acting in the performance. it was well trained and perfectly organized and showed how effective a large body could be made when properly drilled and hundied. In the forum scene it was loudly applauded, aud it richly de- served the praise it received. "It is a question of dramatic propriety, however, if it be well to allow this mob to completely during the delivery of his oration and shadow his elocutionary effort. The play a8 a whole was thoroughly satisfactory aud fully justitied the Ligh reputation which the com- pany has acquired elsewhere, ‘we AcADEMY oF Music.—Thoroughly grace- ful and attractive Julia Marlowe charmed the audience at the Academy of Music last night. She has a native gitt of dramatic ability that has, young as she is in her stage career, made hereminent. With delicate womauliness she combines the faculty of subtle modulation, both in tone and gesture. She gave her im: personation of Beatrice in “Ay You Like It’ a charm that seemed full of uature itself. Her methods are her own, and she gives the delight- ful character she assumes a certain renewed interes Robert Taber reflected the genial qualities of Benedict in a capable manuer. Charles Hanford’s undoubted qualifications as an actor made his Don Pedro an appreciated portion of the performance. He has made rapid strides in his profession and invests every character he assumes with an intlli- gence that shows keen analysis and careful study. He is already looked upon as one of the most promising young actors anda bright future awaits him. Giles Shine as Friar Fran- cis met with merited upproval, and H. A Weaver's Doglerry was a pleasing preventa- tion of Shakespeare's humor. Miss Eugenia Lindemann’s Hero was conscientious and at- tractive. Tonight Mivs Marlowe will present “Ingomar.” Hanxgis’ Buov Tarater.—While that realistic comedy drama, “Lost in New York,” has been seen in this city before, the audience it attracted at the Bijou last night was uone the less appre- ciative. It was delineated & company of considerable merit, and the mounting of the play shows careful study and a generous outlay Of money. The height of realism in stage mechanism was reached in the third act, show- ing the East river by moonlight and ‘a real Steamboat plying thereon. To bring ubout this wonderful scene a tank containing 60,00 gallons of water ix used. As Jennie the Waif Miss Louise Galloway scored a decided success. Arthur Wilson mu @ good villain, and ilarry Todd as Horatio Ches- fer, a sturdy lawyer who set things to rights, was a favorite. The somes was furnished by Gus Pisley, who, in the dual role of the Gas Meler Inspector and the Tramp, was excellent. In his Inst creation he was especially good. Again tonight. Kervas's Lyceum Tazarer.—Wm. Muldoon’s strong athletic and specialty company at- tracted a large audience at Kernan’s Theater lust night. A long and interesting program was presented, introducing many old. favorites and concluding with a highly interesting and exciting wrestling bout between Muldoon and Reeber, which lasted for fifteen minutes with- out either gaining an advantage. The curtain rose upon Hughes and Farren, who contributed acomedy sketch of considerable merit. Mlle. ‘Theo followed with a finished musical act und the Julians gave an artistic tumbling exhibi- ion. Frank Moran in his inimitable burlesque orations was good and P. M. Carroll in his orig- inal creation, Mortar and Bricks, was ludicrous, Basco and Koverts were dangerously funny on the aerial trapeze and Montagne and West proved themselves refined instrumentalists. ‘Again tonight. Tae Wasurxetox Washington Musi Mvsrca Cxs.—The al Club gives the second concert of its fourse next Friday evening in the Universalist Charch. At this performance the society will be assisted by the Franz Abt Ciub and Miss Alice Williams of New York. Miss Williams iva native of Washington, but several years ago she left to perfect the culti- vation of her voice under European teachers.

Her voice is a are soprano with» wide range, unusual xibility and a sweet sympathetic quaiity, The Franz Abt Club needs no introduction to Washington musicians. The excellent work done by this organization in the past is a sufii- cient guarantee for the pleasure of their num- bers.

PEELE CaS Sats ROBBING A CHURCH. ‘Thieves Break Into the Church of the Epiph- apy and Make a Slight Haul. Late Sunday night or early Monday morning burglars entered the Church of the Epiphany, no doubt anticipating big haul, but the money they expected to get was locked in an iron safe and the burglars, it is thought, were not expert enough to tackle the job of opening it and so they bad to be satisfied with considerable less than the amount collected Sunday. There was “special collection Sunday evening and some- thing like $2,000 was subscribed, and this no doubt was what the burglars expected to get. The cash money paid in was put in the safe in the rector's study, instead of being put in a desk drawer, where a thief might secure it without much difficulty. ‘The entrance was effected by using a jimmy and forcing open the side door, and once in the building the burglars experienced but little difficulty in getting into Dr. McKim’s study. When Dr. MeKitn reached the chureh vester- day he was surprised to see that the drawers of his desk had been ransacked and Looks, papers and ouber articles were strewn about the floor. A watch and $23 in cash had been taken from one of the drawers in addition to a copy of Webster's Dictionary. Aailver pitcher and two silver goblets, part of the communion service, had also been taken froma stan in the churel:. ‘The police were notifivd soon after the rob- bery was discovered and detectives are at work investigating the robbery and attempting to locate the thieves as weil as recover the prop- erty. ———.
