MONEY FOR THE MILITIA National Guard Representatives Desire a Larger Appropriation. Congress Asked to Increase the Amount From $400,000 to 82,000,000 —Meeting in Progress. One effect of the Spanish-American war to awaken a very decided interest in the National Guard of the various states upon which the country must, in periods of emergency, depend in a large me ure for its safety and strength. It was evident at the commencement of the recent hostilities that in many instances the mill- tla bodies which compose the National rd were but poorly equipped, and in y instances only provided with old and obsolete properties that were really worse then useless, inasmuch as the: impediments. These conditions gave im- petus to the International National Guard Association, which was but newly formed when the Spanish-American wer began, and since then it has been industriously striving to secure means by which the national guard may be put upon a footing commen- surate with its importance. Resolutions Adopted. At its last annual convention, which was held at Indianapolis, January id 24, resolution was adopted providing that the association, which represents the National Gvard of the various states, should urgently request Congress at the present session to increase the annual appropriation for pro- viding arms and equipment for the milftia from $400,000 to $2,000,000. This resolution was offered by Adjutant Gen. J. C. Over- myer, of Colorado, chairman of the commit- tee on bills, who also presented another, which was likewise adopted, instructing the secretary of the association to write to the governor of each and every state, request- ing him to send ‘his adjutant general or seme other representative to Washington to aid in having Congress enact the desired legislation. Thirty-Eight States Represented. As a consequence, a meeting was con- vened at the Shoreham Hetel at 10 o'clock this morning, which was attended by a number of the adjutants general of the various states and other militia officers. Thirty-eight states were represented. The session was brief, a recess being taken to permit the delegates to go to the Capt- tol and appear before the militia commit- tee on the House in behalf of the proposi- tion to appropriate $2,000,000 for the militia. The ofticers of the association, the 1 jority of whom « ance on the eeting, are Gen. J. N. . Illinois president; Gen. P. H. Barry, Nebraska, first vice president; Gen. Wm. Henry, Missi sippi, second vice president: Gen. J. W. Appleton, West Virginia, third vice pre: mt; Gen. James K. Gore, Ind fourth vice president; Col. C. E.

COLUMBIA THEATER—Out of the west, like young Lochinvar, comes the spirit of genuine American enterprise in the drama. Chicago did much in sending “Oliver Guldsmith” out. That was an hievement. “Quo Vadis” is a triumph.

Petronius the pandor—the . the nob! friend, the Christian mar: na chara ef so many subtle phases there must be uperable difficuliles. Enter Mr. Ar- thur Forrest as Petronius. Exit Mr. Ar- thur Forrest, one of the heroes of the even- ing, a s apable actor, who looks the over-refined product of a decadent civiliza ticy, and who at the same time possesses the ‘virility to account for his real heroism. Chilonides is only a low comedy character art, whose influence on the general effect need not be great, even if the acting is ther scrutiny, Which would discover much to commend and but little to blame. There is, in fact, not a detail of the production which has been shirked, and the audience which crowded the theater waited without impatience while the settings were adjust- ed, although it was very near midnight when the great spectacle-drama was con- cluded. The propriety of th> orchestra's selections for entr-acte music is especially to be com- mended, as this point is frequently over- looked in some of the most ambitious stage enterprises. The abs>nce of vendors of all kinds was another abstinence calculated to sooth the sensitive. “Quo Vadis” has the distinction of being a great production, with @ cast strong enough to eclips> even the splendors of !ts own scenery. It is probahle that an extra matinee will be given in order to meet the demand for seats. NEW NATIONAL THEATER.—When Jerome K. Jerome can write such an amus- ing play as ‘Miss Hobbs,” it is not strange that he gives up writing those funny, whim- sical sketches that have delighted so mahy nd now devotes his time and talent to the stage. Yet entertaining as the play is the players are even better. As the conse- quence, a thoroughly Gelightful evening was spent by those who went to the National Theater last evenin; It was a large gath- ering, and it was a heartily responsive one. It took dear old Mrs. Gilbert to its heart at once and gave her such a greet- ing when she first appeared that she must have been sensible of the warm and wide- spread affecaen felt for her. But the oth- ers had to earn the cheers they received. ven Miss Russell, thoroughly esta in popular favor as she is, was comed with the heartiness that greeted Mrs. Gilbert. But geod work by star or satellite was recognized and evidence was given that it was appreciated. In fact, the laughter ani the applause were as neariy conUnuous as that much-abused word has come now to signify. One was recalled to the days when Rosina Vckes used to take a play on her shoulders, and although given able assistance, would carry it through the evening by the strength of her own per- ality. Rosina Vokes’ charm lay largely in her unconventionality, her freedom from staginess, in fact, her naturalness. Miss Russell possesses this attribute to a great degree. An unusually mobile face ex- presses the rapidly succeeding phases of thought and feeling so vividly that the spectator hardly needs the spoken word— in fact, far mor> is revealed than is given in the lines. Miss Russell personates a man hater, or, rather, one who would release her sisters from the drudgery of matrimony, a sort of female Edwin Markham protesting against the sins of the ages—committed by man. Her chief joy is alienating sweethearts and separating husband and wife. While prose- cuting this inspired work she arranges a lit- tle snare for one whom she believes to be the husband of her dearest friend. Of course, the snarer is ensnared, the wild one is tamed and disdain is turned to devotion. In the process there are some exquisite passages which raise a somewhat common- place situation to one of deep interest. Mr. Jerome has written savagely enough about the follies of playwrights to keep him from falling into the same mistakes. Thus he does not dwell on a sentiment long enough for it to become mawkish. This is shown in the scene on the yacht when Wolff Kingsearl (Charles Richman) re- proves Miss Hobbs (Miss Russell) for her slur at women “fit only to be mothers.” His voice vibrating with feeling, Kingsear! concludes a glowing apostrophe to mother- hood with the admonition that she pray that she become even such a woman. Hardly has the last solemnly uttered word left his lips when he shouts, “Lookout, the milk’s boiling over.” It comes like a dash of cold water on a hot, upturned face. The audience starts as if given an electric shock. The dialogue had ventured pretty close to the border line of sentimentality, but the check rein came just in time. Mr. Jerome frequently shows his deft- ness and his perception of what fs fitting, and he demonstrates that his present posi- tion as a leader among English dramatists is deserved. But there is one scene that jars. The idea is old, and perhaps its age might plead for its existence. It is the > where Kingsearl bullles Miss Hobbs making the coffee and broiling the When he forces her to make the n to getting out the coal and wood, that he is going too far.

ACADEMY OF MUSIC.—Henshaw and Broe the well-known ited a. very bright and amusing the Academy of Music last night. Ir. Dodge modeled ‘4 ning the rounds for me . "But it Was given with a snap and go last night that imparted an up-to- date flavor and made {t one of the most pleasing productions that the Academy has offered its patrons for some time. The s als with a man named Dodge, who ukes the mistake of wining and dining unknown female at the French ball in New York and introducing her to a man there who has money to invest in Dodge's bank and who wants to be completely as- sured as to Dodge's morality. Later, when the investor visits Dedge at his home in New Jersey, by a mix-up in Introductions the situations become very ludicrous. Mrs. Dodge is preparing for a vaudeville enter- tainment in aid of some distant heathens, and this feature affords ample excuse for the introduction of some clever specialties. Jobn E. Henshaw makes the part of Howell 1. Dodge a very funny one, while May Ten Broeck is at home as the jealous spouse. Clara Lavine makes an efficient maid, al- though her salary as a domestic must have been enormous to enable her to dress in the lavish style she affects. The other mem- bers of the company are good, Harry Cran- dall_ especially so in the role of Dodge's confidential clerk and partner in deception. Henshaw and Crandall do a clever talking and singing specialty, and the Chapelle sis- ters do a dancing turn that is abové the average. Ben Grinnell and Ella Gardiner Iso do some clever work in a burlesque on Romeo and Jullet,”” while there are sev- eral new songs, both solos and choruses, that deserve mention. Some of the musi¢ is taken from the now eclipsed “Man in the Moon” with good effect. The scenery is en- urely adequate. NEW GRAND OPERA HOUSE.—The re- turn of the Ching Ling Foo Company, won- der workers, to the New Grand this week resulted In big audiences yesterday after- noon and evening. The spectators enjoyed a novel sight as they filed in the play house last night. A robust man wearing a long and is ch that,has been indifferent. Mr. Horace Lewls chose to ig- nore this fact and make his portrayal of the dirty Greek philosopher not merely plausible and picturesque, but memorable. With all these excellences a deficient Nero could be excused. To play the part of a historic monarch is always a difficult under- taking, and if Nero suffices to make up the picture, 1 is all that could be reasonably expected. Again, there is a happy disap- pointment. Edmunds D. Lyons make the part a masterly picture of the besotted man-beast, such as Nero always appears to the popular imagination, whatever may have been his actual personality. . Reputation and fortune have been estab- lished as character imp3rsonations no more exper: than this delineation by Mr. Lyons, Alice Fischer was good as the vixenish em- press atd the fact that Richard Buhler is well knawn in this city added interest to his praiieworthy performanc> of Aulus Plautjus. The company is worthy of fur- Ught coat and a pink silk high hat was pa- rading up and down before the theater car- rying a big banner upon which was painted the information that desirable seats to the show could be obtained across the street. ‘This move was the result of the campaign inaugurated by Manager Chase against the ticket speculators. The latter are evidently working on hard lMnes, as there were sev- eral rows of vacant seats last night in the best part of the house, which clearly de- mwnstrated that they were left with the tickets on their hands. Remarks favorable to Mr. Chase were heard on all sides as to the stand taken by him in this movement. ‘Yhe show itself is pleasing throu, ut. Ching Ling Foo and his companions are. in. deed, wonders in their line, and, as 1, created the greatest astonishrient ai 1s the audience, the little girl coming in for the most praise from the ladies.

The house was filled to overflowing, and a big week's business is assured, * KERNAN'S LYCEUM THEATER.—Fred Irwin's majestie burlesquers opened a week's stay at Kernan’s Lyceum yesterday, and big audiences greeted the performers both in the afternoon.and evening. Theshow left Chicago very late Saturday night, ar- riving in Washingtonaround the noon hour, and as a result‘a short delay was occa- sicned, but this enly served to whet the ap- petites of the spectators and create enthu- siasm. The two burlesques are put on With unusual care,the scenery and dresses being elaborate, and yet in good iaste, while the performers threw enough “ginger” into their work to make the presentations really enjoyable.) something unusual at this house during the past fortnight. The olio borders on the sensational in spots. The three Merrills, comedy, trick and fancy bi- cyclists, created great enthusiasm through their original and daring work, and the Todd-Judge family of acrobats were neck and neck in the division of honors for first place. Kolb and Dill were newcomers ina German act, and were well received, while Marie Beaugarde prover herself a pleasing singer with an attractive personality. The two sister turns in the olio, Mitchell Sis- ters and Harvey and Irwin, were praise- worth, as the ladies were pretty and good singers. James F. Leonard, the star of both burlesques, proved clever in two rough Irish roles and added snap and go to the performances. BIJOU THEATER.—There was big busi- ness at the Bijou’s two performances yes- terday. This week the stock company pre- sents an opening hodge-podge, entitled “Monte Carlo Sports,’ the atmosphere whereof recalls the dear dead days of Jack- son City, and whose sports are of the tin- horn variety. The olio averages well and contains some clever features. The Eight Mascotts, the Five Whirlwinds, the Mc- Caithos, Craigand McDonald, and Chas W. Young are the entertainers whose work on the whole averaged high as variety bills go. DE PACHMANN’S RECITAL TOMOR- ROW.—De Pachmann's single piano recital in this city will take place tomorrow after- noon at ‘at the Columbia Theater. It is said the famous virtuoso plays in a more masterly style than ever; that his staccato —that rarest of pianistic attainments—is as matchless as of yore, while his cantabile effects are marked by a delicacy and ten- derness which, combined with a marvelous facility of execution, excite the greatest possible admiration. Half of De Pach- mann's program tomorrow afterndon will be devoted to the compositions of Chopin. Until one has heard De Pachmann play Chopin one can never hope to fully appre- ciate the wonderful beauty of the Polish writer’s compositions. As is well known, Vladimir de Pachmann stands absolutely without a rival in his rendering of the works of this composer. De Pachmann's striking individuality is very apparent in his music, so he plays as no one else plays, he talks and does many things as no one else does, and the pubiic admire just such an unusual personality and flock to his con- certs. His program tomorrow afternoon is a very fine one and contains many famous compositions, such as the Beethoven Wald- stein Sonata, the Schuman G minor Sonata, the Black Key Study of Chopin, the Chopin Third Ballade, the Weber Invitation to the Dance, besides a number of works of Cho- pin and Schubert. Additional interest at- taches to this concert, as it is given under the auspices of the Damrosch Society, and therefore is bound to be successful, as all the concerts given by this organization are. Seats are on sale at Guzmen’s in Droop's store.

From Dumfries, where the poet died, and from Ayr, near the place of his birth, excursions were made to all the out- lying points of interest associated with his life and work. ‘Phis was followed by the ever-popular Scottish tour up Loch Lo- mond, through the Rob Roy region, and then through the Trossachs, with, as Miss Pitts suggested, “an open copy of ‘The Lady of the Lake’ in one hand, and an um- brella, also open, in the other.” _ Visits were afterward made to historic Stirling and Linlithgow. and to the beautiful old city of Fdinburgh.

The Asylum Case to Be Brot President's Attention. The meeting of the Central Labor Union last evening was mainly devoted to the consideration of the report of a committee of th> union which had called on Secretary E. A. Hitchcock last Thursday evening and requested the reduction of the hours of daily service of the attendants at St. Eliza- beth’s Insane Asylum. The committee reported that “the conf2r- ence was brief and barren,” as Mr. Hitch- cock stated that he would not interfere with Dr. Richardson's administration of the institution. The Secretary expr2ssed the utmost confider® in Dr. Richardson, it was stated, and advised the committee and all others not to attempt to “dictate” how the asylum should be governed. «At the conclusion of the brief conference, the committee reports, Mr. Hitchcock in- formed them that “if the attendants are not satisfied with their conditions at the asylum they can leave.” After the report of ths committee was made it was decided to bring the matter to the attengon of President McKinley. The legislative’ committee was also instructed to prepare a bill which will provide for a shorter daily period of service for the asy- lum attendants and which will be submitted to Congress. it to ——— Music at West End Markct tonight.— Advertisement. ———_-__ For Benefit of Creditors.
