Nimmo, jr., before the National Statistical Association on the insurrection of June and July, 184, growing out of the Pullman atrike, was yesterday presented to the President of the United States by a com- mittee appointed for that purpose, consist- Ing of A. R. Spofford, librarian’ of Cor ress; Prof. Clark of the bureau of educa- fon and Chas. S. Till, national secretary of the association. Dr. Nimmo discusses the commercial, economic, political and military aspects of the subject, heartily indorsing the recommendations of Gens. Schofield and Howard as to an increase of the army. He bases his opinion as to such an 1 rrease upon the ground that the American railroad system is vulnerable at every rail and switch and bridge and trestle and tun- nel, its entire apparatus of repair being at Il times subject to speedy demolition, and ts very equipment readily convertible into {nstruments for its own destruction.

Iumbia Phonograph Musical Palace, 910 mu en the Blodgett Claims by the Court of Appeals. k For several years owners of and dealers in real estate in the District have experi- j enced no little trouble and anxiety in deal- ing with land embraced in what is known as the “Jamaica Tract,” a tract which, as originally laid out, embraced numerous | squares of land in the northwestern section of the city, containing several hundred acres. The trouble arose from the éfforts of the heirs of the late Samuel Blodgett to establish a claim to the land in question. ‘Their claim rested on a title to the land which, they asserted, was vested in Mr. Blodgett by purchase from the original pro- prietors of the District. Several months ago, as stated in The Star at the time, the Blodgett claimants were thrown out of | court by a decision rendered by Chief Jus- tice Bingham, the case ‘of J. J. Johnson against Kate VanWycke. In that case Mr. Johnson sued for possession of a certain lot owned by Mrs. VanWycke, situated near Dupont Circle, and embraced in the old “Jamaica Tract.” In the course of the trial it was shown that the claim to the tract was owned by the Union Trust Company of Philadelphia, organized by Lorin Blodgett, a relative, but not an heair, of the original claimant, Samuel Blodgett.’ That company was formed for the purpose of prosecuting the claim, having a capital stock of $240,- v0, the holders of which were to receive one-half of whatever might be obtained, the company to pay all expenses. Mr. Johnson sued as the assignee of the Blodgett heirs. During the trial before Chief Justice Bing- ham the point was made on behalf of the defendant, Mrs. VanWycke, that the sult disclosed ‘champerty, and ‘was therefore against public policy. The court sustained the point, whereupon Mr. Johnson noted an appeal to the Court of Appeals. That ap- peal was decided by the appellate tribunal yesterday afternoon in a lengthy opinion written by Mr. Justice Shepard, in which the judgmept of the lower court is sus- tained. The suit, the Court of Appeals holds, 1s champertous, and to allow it to be prosecuted would be against public policy. ‘The terms of the organization*of the Union ‘Trust Company, the court holds, are such as to make the suit one of champerty and maintenance, and though circumstances have greatly changed since that legal doc- trine was first promulgated, and many suits which would once have been consider- ed under the ban are now allowed, there is now a limit beyond which combination of client and attorney cannot go, which limit the case in point has passed. Respecting the plea of Mr. Johnson that, independent of the Union Trust Company, the ttle de- rived by him from the Blodgett heirs is valid, the court holds that it is so joined with ‘the other that both must fall together; but that if the heirs elect to revive their claim separately from Lorin Blodgett and the Union Trust Company they would then be entitled to a hearing. The title of the Blodgett heirs has never been seriously considered by the members of the local bar, it is said, and it is now be- lieved that although there may be an ap- peal to the United States Supreme Court noted, the decision of the Court of Appeals is really an end of the whole matter. enthen ate MELDA ILL. MME. 1 Be No Concert at Couven- tion Hall Tonight. The concert by the Melba Concert Com- pany will not take place at Convention Mu- sic Hall this evening. The following tele- gram has been received by Mr. David Tow- ers, the manager of Convention Music Hail, from Mr. John E. Warner, the general manager for Messrs. Abbey, Schoeffel and Grau, dated Toronto, Ontario, November 5, sod: “Melba so ill concert there must be can- celed. Will write you particulars from New York tomorrow and advise as to future ap- pearance. The advance sale at Droop & Sons’ up to 10 o'clock this morning amounted to $2,- 355, all of which will be refunded to pur- chasers of tickets upon presentation of them at the store. _— AMUSEMENTS. re W Albaugh’s.—It was fitting that the tenth anniversary of the opening of Albaugh’s Opera House should be celebrated by the presentation for the first time on any stage in this country of the English ver- sion of Sardou’s play, “Madame Sans Gene.” In this effort the great dramatist has taken a single incident in the career of Napoleon and has elaborated it with a skill that is peculiarly his own. He has made a play with forty-two speaking parts, all of which are necessary to the develop- ment of the story, and yet the action is mainly carried by a few people. ‘To properly interpret ali these characters requires not only an unusually large, but an unusually intelligent company but Mr. Pitou has brought together people who move and speak naturally, and who have been re- hearsed until the whole action of the piece goes with perfect smoothness. The lines are bright and sparkling, and the move- ment in every act is brisk, ending with a telling picture upon the usual Sardou lines. The piece is splendidly mounted, its scenery and furnishings being historically accurate as to details and of unusual richness of material. This, too, may be said of the costumes of all the characters and the or- ders and decorations worn. In the title role Miss Kathryn Kidder has found a part to which she is especially adapied, and she gained the sympathy of her audience from the first. Even in the prologue in the Laun- dry she was remarkably effective, and in this scene she was aided by Misses Ailen, Morris, Oliver and Russell in making the action entirely natural. Honest and straight- forward by nature, she retained those qual: ties even when elevated to a duchess,and si abhorred intrigues of the court and the pre- tensions of those who had been suddenly elevated into social prominence. She was a woman of the people from the first, and she was the true and loyal wife who could not be divorced even at the command of an emperor. In the scene with the royal sis- ters Miss Kidder showed a dignity of wo- manhood that was in fine contrast with the mere aristocracy of birth, and her trib- ute to the nobility of those who had risen to honor and renown through their heroic services In the army fully deserved the ap- plause it received. In every situation Miss Kidder proved herself fully competent and her effurts were rewarded with repeated curtain calls at the close of every act. Mr. Augustus Cook looked the part of Napoleon and he interpreted the character with dig- nity and force, showing the result of care- ful study and an intelligent comprehension of the nature of the man who revolutionized France and placed her upon the highest pinnacle of greatness. Harold Russell made n effective Lefebre, as was J. K. Hackett as the Duke of Neipping ‘and’ Wallace Shaw as Fouche. Others might be men- tioned, but then all did well, and the whole performance was one of the best first nights ever given in Washington. The play was pronounced an unqualified success, and in it Manager Pitou has a money-maker and Miss Kidder has a part which will not only bring her money but fame. New Natfonal Theater.—“The Amazons” made their first appearance before a Wash- ington audience last night, and were right heartily welcomed. The comedy has a clever theme as its basis, and the good points are never allowed to suffer for lack of compe- tent interpretation. There is a satirical flavor to it all which is pungent without being obtrusive. The moral is there, if the auditor chooses to hunt it out, but there is no disposition to force it upon the attention at the expense of fun for fun’s sake. The personnel of the company which appeared in the comedy promised good things, and the results were in keeping with the expec- tations. The play ts light, but not flimsy; mirthful, but not boisterous, and it requires judicious and clever work on the part of the company to preserve the -delicate balafice upon which a satisfactory production of the piece depends. The cast contains people with whom the playgoers are acquainted; people whom they like to see whatever they do. Johnstone Bennett is one of these: so is Miss Eilson; so is Miss Irving; so ts John Findlay. The company has the rare merit of a high standard of ability throughout, and the result is a production which not only amuses but which satisties, Academy of Musie.—Washington comes once more to the front in things dramatic in the achivements of “Tim” Murphy. His advance has been rapid and substantial, | and his performance of “Lem Kettle” at the Academy confirms the impression as to his capabilities in the direction of legitimate ployed in his previous work. As he always toned his fua into accurate harmony with the characteristics of the role he assumed, his appearance in substantial Mnes is not an abrupt transition, but a natural develop- ment. Mr. Murphy suffers somewhat from the fact that the made-to-order play Is not as certain to be satisfactory as the made- to-order suit of clothes. “Lem Kettle” is, | ductions had not to say the least, conventional. The impres- sion of triteness is relieved, as it only can be, by clever play: ¥ Hoyt’s slap-dash but effective method of erie | a, character could be mildly infused into Mr, Carleton’s Iiterary skill, as displayed in this produc- tion, the result would be a play more to the style of Tim Murphy and the good people who surround him. George Richards and | Eugene Canfield are both on hand, and they are liked by the audience in this per- formance just as they are in all that they do. Possibly “Lem Kettle” would meet with more approval if Mr. Carleton’s other pro- justified the expecta- tion of something so much better. 1t is as much a mistake for him to undertake to depict an unpolished hero as it would be for Charles Hoyt to attempt to portray a per- son of true refinement. And with all the handicap which the performance carried the audience approved and manifested its ap- preciation without stint or hesitation. The | reception was one of which any player or company of players might,feel proud. And it is especially gratifying to know that this appreciation is not simply a matter of lccal popularity; that Mr. Murphy is the same favorite in whatever community he visits. Miss Clara Thropp rendered the soubrette role of the play very acceptably, and the other members of the company were competent. Butler's bijou Theater.—Miss Ada Gray, who has made the play of “East Lynne” a life study, opened a week’s engagement at Butler’s Bijou last night at the head of a supporting company of more than usual merit. There are few theater goers who t familiar with the sad, pathetic story ‘ast Lynne,” and the large audien gave the play a hearty welcome last night. Miss Gray, in the dual role of Lady Isabel and Madame Vine, gave a strong imperso- nation of the characters. MisseGray shared the honors last evening with Mr, Charles Tingay, who made a favorable impression as Archibald Carlyle. Miss Annie Sutton made many friends by her capable handling of Miss Corney, and Mr. William McGregor brought good humor with comedy. Again tonight. ° Kernan’s Lyceum Theater.—Few vaude- ville shows on the road enjoy such a de- served popularity as the one headed by the Russell brothers, those original comedians who have contributed so much to the enjoy- ment of the public. For this week only this show is at Kernan’s, and last night when the curtain went up the house was crowd- ed. ‘The Russells did another clever edition of the Irish servant girls and brought roars of laughter. Will Fox in his original and highly entertaining specialty with the piano was well received and contributed material- ly to the performance. Lizzie Raymond sings sweetly and Havel and O'Brien came to the front ranks as sketch artists. Then there is Sam Bernard, who is always cleve! Hastings and Marion, Whiting and Shep- herd, all contributing to make one of the best variety shows seen here this season. Tonight Manager Kernan will receive full election returns over a special wire and read them from the stage. The Choral Society.—Mendelssohn as a composer held to the belief that music is not too indefinite to put into words, but too Gefinite. He held that mere words were susceptitble of different meanings, but that, to him at least, music had a particular and definite meaning, one only, and no other. It was with this idea constantly in mind that his best compositions were written. He endeavored to convey a meaning by the rusic, independent of and yet-in thorough harmony with the text. Still he was not an innovator and rarely attempted anythini new and startling. His oratorio, “St. Paul, to be produced by the Choral Society Wed- nesday evening at Convention Music Hall, is a fair example of Mendelssohn's musical ideas in tangible form, There is a wealth of melody, and at the same time a depth of feeling, which renders it highly acceptable to all classes of concert goers. The cho- ruses are an especially strong feature of the work. Miss Blauvelt, Miss Stidham, Mr. Schott and Mr. Fischer all have excellent opportunities in the solo work, and will be heard at their best. Reserved seats may be secured in advance at Droop & Sons’, 925 Pennsylvania avenue. Dr. Conan Doyle.—Many admirers of I J. Conan Doyle gathered at Metzerott Mu- sic Hall last night to listen to this highly successful writer’s account of early strug- gles for recognition and the entertaining reading from: several of bis most success- ful books. Dr. Doyle has come rapidly fo ward in the literary world within the last ten years and at present is in the front rank of writers. The audience seemed par- ticularly interested in the Goctor's early struggles and in the telling of the butl ing up of the absorbing character, “Sher- lock Holmes.” Contrary to the ‘general opinion, the author docs not hold “Sher- lock” in very high esteem, and told several amusing stories of how the book created great discussion and how, finaily, he had to kill “Sherlock” to ease the English mind. In personal appearance the doctor resem: bles the average newspaper map whose work is almost entirely out of: doors, being well built and a typical illustration of the words “good natured. His accent is strongly English, but easily understood,and few words escaped the ears of the atten- tive audience. Few authors labor as per- sistently as Dr. Doyle, yet he seems to thrive upon hard work. Many auditors ad- mitted that from reading h's books they had conceived a sort of author totally dif- ferent from their hearty entertainer and the multiplicity of short stories published within the last year was accounted for through the doctor’s splendid physique. To- day the doctor will finish up a hasty in- spection of the elty and then goes to Phil- adelphia. Lecture at Hamline Church.—“The Story of Redemption in Art and Song” is the title of a new lecture to be given by Rev. W. I. McKenney at Hamline M. 5. Church, mh and P streets northwest, Wednesday evening, November 7, at 8’ o'clock. Mr. McKenney will introduce elghty fine illus- trations, accompanying them with songs and a description of the life of Christ from his birth to his ascension. Mr. McKenney’s lectures are always popular, and this one will, no doubt, prove exceedingly instruc- tive and Interesting. at eee Baptist Ministers’ Union, The Baptist Ministers’ Union, com- posed of the colored preachers of this city and vicinity connected with that denomi- nation, has anpointed a committee to con- sider changes in the constitution which will make licentiates associate members with no right to vote.
