and njade It a cinch for crook-catching
intellect of that caliber to be pitted
against that displayed by Mr. Kent In
evading the law. It would possibly
have been more Interesting If things
hadn’t seemed so easy for Raffles In
this fight of brains.
Roydoi\ Erlynne as Crawshay, the
typical Engllph house breaker, did well,
and the same might be said of Thomas
V. Emory as. Bunny.
At times Miss Susanne Lee as Gwen
dolyn Conron acted excellently, but at
others her wails of anguish were too
much of the stereotyped variety. Miss
Maida Reade as Mrs. Vidal, after Mr.
Kent, was deserving of praise. Her
part of the scorned woman was well
done. But on the Whole, Mr. Kent was

Paul Gilmore In his new college play,
“At Yale," will be seen at the Grand
Saturday afternoon at matfhee and
again Saturday night. The verdict of
those who have seen the play is to the
effect that Mr. Qllmore has q bigger
and better production than any In
which he has ever been seen.
It Is the story of a thorough-going
young fellow who works hJs way
through Yale. He makes the 'varsity
crew, where he is stroke. In tlje
meantime he has fallen In. love wittf the
sister of his college chum by seeing a
picture of her on his chum’s dresser.
In the course of the college social life
they are thrown together. He finds
that he has a rival In an unscrupulous,
treacherous fellow student. The stroke
goes quietly on his way. but has made
a profound impression, so that when he
is the direct cause of winning the boat
race he comes out the victor as well
\^lth the girl of his choice.

Mr. Qllmore studied at Yale for the
part, taking instructions under the
trainer of the boat crow aa well as
mingling much with the students.
There are college songs and yells ga
lore, so that every particle of local
color possible to put Into a stage pro
duction, has been added.
The scene of the boat race Is showed
In the third act when sixteen athletic
young fellows are seen pulling t
their lives. Electrical devices are
used which were patented by Jules
Murry, the manager, especially for this
play. Mr. Gilmore has expressed him
self as being more pleased with "At
Yale" than any play In which he has
ever taken part. He says he gets a
real Joy in the acting. Coming as It
does during Thanksgiving week, when
the college spirit Is In the air, there
seems little doubt that “At Yale" will
be greeted by- capacity houses at both
performances.
“The Virginian.’!
The Klrke LaShelle Company’s pro

matized from Owen Winter's Immense,
ly popular novel of the same name,
will be presented at the Grand Wed
nesday and Thursday nights and

num In the title role, assisted by a
notable arrays of dramatic , talent.
‘The Virginian" Is the story of the
friendship of the two men quite as
much at the story 6f the love of a man
and a woman. And It Is.In the third
act where two friends come together
for the last time, and the Virginian
captures Steve (turned cattle thief)
that the atrettgth of the play Is fully
shown. It grips the attention because
of its novelty, and It tilgs at the heart
as the two strung men face the unal
terable problem of their lives—the one
the hunter, the other the hunted, and
joys and sorrows.of llff on the plains

Judged one of the strongest ever writ
ten for a play and hns much to do
with the success of this very excellent
stage portraiture of Owen Wlster'a
widely read novel.
Dustin Farnum, we are told, seems
almost to have been created for the
Virginian, and hls success In this role
has been most gratifying to hls admir
ers. The Impression of physical
strength, of manly self-reliance, of
honor, amiable aggressiveness and of
resourcefulness, so essentlnl to the
true elmracter of the Virginian, seem
to have found a suitable expression
through the portrayal of this rharac
ter by Mr, Farnum.
The supporting company will Include
Frank Campeau In hls superb charac

Trampus. Bonnet Musson will be seen

IN BRITISH CABINET
Row Starts Over Making
Prince Louis Lord of
Admiralty.
By RICHARD ABERCORN.
London, Nov. H.—There have been
some very serious dissensions in the
British cabinet recently, of which the
general public has no knowledge.
The most serious concerned Prince
Louise of Battenberg, who is regarded
by experts as one. of the nblest and
brainiest officers In the British navy.
Great pressure was brought to bear
from exalted quarters to create Prince
Louis a third sea lord at the admiralty.
The extreme Radicals, however, strong
ly opposed the suggestion, chiefly on
the ground that Prince Louis was a
royalty of sorts, and therefore could not
be expected to be ns brainy as a Radi
cal. A very much stronger objection,
however, put forward by other-mem
bers of the cabinet, was that Prince
Louis was .one of the kaiser's most
Intimate friends, and that It would ba
extremely unwise to place the prince
In the position of knowing all the se
crets of the British admiralty.
Officers In the navy who know of the
affair regard the suggestion of danger
as ridiculous, as they have Implicit
confidence In Prince Louis as a discreet
as well as a clever officer.
The opposition, however,, proved
overwhelming and now Prince Louis
has been given the post of second In
command of the Mediterranean squad
ron.

iof troth. The
“The Royal Chef.”
The Royal Chef Is coming to the
Grand and will have a hearing on Fri
day night only. It Is a musical comedy
of much reputation and Is construct
ed on comic opera lines, some of the
music ranging from grand to the pop
ular music hall style. Every number
is excellent and Is said to be brightly
sung, while a great many laughs are
promised. The piece has been newly
and brightly mounted'for the season's
tour and nearly all tho principals who
have worked conscientiously to assist
the "Chef to the prominence U pos
sesses, through Its lengthy runs In both
New York und Chicago, will be In the
company, while a few new personali
ties are brooght forward to receive
favor.
Among them Is Miss Gertrude
Hutcheson, who. It is said, has a fresh,
pure voice and sings us If for the love
of singing. Bhe possesses a demure
manner that Is declared charming, and,
according to all reports, has the acting
style and a cultivated pronunciation as
well.
Besides good music all through the
play, there Is a story and a rational
kind of prrttiness In the pictorial dis
play. Ben M. Jerome Wrote the former
ami muny of the numbers arc richly
hued und characteristic ami possess an
excellent swing, (ieorge Stoddard and
Charles S. Taylor evolved the tale and
lyrics. Of course Harry Hermscn Is
the Jocose factor in the proceedings,
his magnetism, facial play, dialect and
vocalization lit him for the character
of Heinrich I-emphauser, the "chef,”
as though to the manner born, and the
dramatic critics of other cities are a
unit In declaring his a characteriza
tion - par excellence. A comely and
well trained chorus and the (piece de
resistance of the “Chef,” the famous
original broilers, sixteen little singing
anil dancing; beauties, will be much In
evidence.

be summoned promptly to any spot
where her services are required, the
ship is fitted for wireless telegraphy.
Up till now the greatest secrecy has
been maintained regarding the Cyclops.
She was privately launched under the
name of the India Brahma, as If she
was to be merely an Indian trader. Now
Bhe Is so near completion as to make
secrecy futile. Her numerous and
oddly-placed smokestacks, connected
with the workshops and foundries be
low, and her many cranes give her a
unique appearance. ,

Is seditious, It U sedition when a store
keeper displays a show-card depicting
a French soldier In uniform.
Francois Wagner, a tobacconist of
Sarre-Unlon, displayed In hls window
an attractive picture to advertise hls
specialty, a French tobacco. It showed
an Alsatian peasant girl In native cos
tume, lighting the pipe of a French
“piou-plou" dressed In the traditional
blue coat and red trousers,
A German policeman saw the show
card and ordered the tobAoconlst to
withdraw It. Wagner protested, and
at lost the policeman consented to a
compromise. He ordered that tho
French soldier’s epaulets and the
crown of his capo should he erased,
and the red trousers painted another
color.
When that had been done to the sat
isfaction of the police, the poor soldier
was unrecognizable as a son of France,
looking something like a Bavarian In
fantryman and something like a Bel
gian soldier.

Mr. J. Plerpont Morgan has Just add
ed to hls collection of costly antiques a
silver perfuming pun recently found
at Bruggs, Switzerland, where there
was formerly a Roman city called Vln-
donlzza.
This unique treasure, which dates
from the first century, A. D„ Is beauti
fully chased with tho figures of Mars
and Mercury, und on the handles Is a
picture of the soldier Mercator, of the
Twenty-first Legion, under the eom-
“ Vor-
rriand of VReltldl. Mr. Morgan .
chased Ihe silver pan Irani the Bwlss
antiquarians, who are excavating at
Bruggs and were obliged to sell It to
obtain funds to carry-on the work.
This ancient city has been deceived
for twelve years by a collection of
"Old Masters,” most of which now
turn out to be mere copies or fakes.
The Holbume Museum was until lately
one of the city's chief glories, and the
pictures therein were valued at 52,500,-
ooo.
There were 256 of them, but 104 have
been rejected us worthless by the new
curator, Hugh Blaker.
The spurious paintings were housed
in a building which cost $100,000, and
were heavily Insured, one faked “Old
Master." which was Insured for $2,500,
being of less value than Its frame.
Among the worthier* picture* wen
five ascribed to A. Cuyp, four to Ten
iers, three each to Vamlyck, Sir Peter
Irfly, Sir Joshua Reynolds and Salva
tor Rosa, two each to Rubens und
George Merland. and one each to
Gainsborough, Bellinln. Leonardo da
Vinci, Gerard Douw, Paul Potter, Hob
bema and Wouvcrmans.
"The whole thing.” say* Mr. Blaker,
“Is one of the most extraordinary Inci
dents the art world - ha* ever known.
Muny of the originals of the pictures
which were alleged to be In Bath have
all been calmly reposing In I-ondon and
t'ontlnental galleries. The so-called
Murillos, for Instance, If they were
good, they would be worth at least
$5b,000 each, and there Is an alleged
Titian which could not be purchased
for $150,000 If It were genuine."
Sir William Holburne, who gave the
collection to the city, was a retired
naval officer, with plenty of money and
a mania for collecting pictures, aud no
discrimination. He Is said to have
spent $5,000,000 on pictures, buying
recklessly everything that wa* called
Trouble of one kind or another seems
chronic In Servla, and King Peter’s
blood-stained throne la extremely un
easy.
The wild escapades of the Crown
Prince are one of the king's worries.
Major Peshttch, who hns resigned hls
post on the prince's suite after a vio
lent scene with that young spark; Is
the latest of a long series of aides-de-
camp who have refused to serve him
and assist In hls reckless pleasures.
International affairs are also getting
troublesome. The neighboring state of
Bulgaria Is offended because King Pe
ter has conferred high honors on a
Servian bishop In Macedonia (where
Bulgaria claims a "sphere of Inllu-
core"), who Is actively anti-Bulgarian,
Servla has annoyed Austria by sym
pathising with Hungary's nationalist
movement and rejoicing with her at
the resignation of Count Ooluehowski,
the late -Austrian foreign minister.
Meanwhile the officers' corps of the
army, which has been In a constant
turmoil, and at loggerheads with the
crown, ever since the assassination of
King Alexander and Queen Itraga, has
a new rumpus on hand. The young
officers who have recently Joined did
not Invite to their "promotion” ban
quet a certain officer because he was a
"regicide.” For this the minister of
war ha* punished them by sending
them to remote posts, contrary to the
usual custom of stationing new officers
near their homes. Thus the disaffec
tion In the army has bsen reinforced
by the young lieutenants with a griev
ance of their own.

Janitor Soltermann, of the Grand
Hotel, on the summit of the Roc hers de
Nsye, In Switzerland, has begun big
voluntary winter exile amid the Alpine
snows. For six months of the year the
hotel, which Is 6,000 feet above nea

and Boltermann Is left In charge, hie

er all the summer guests and the he tel

take up their headquarters In the de
serted hotel. An avalanche of heavy
snow occur* regularly about the end of
October, snowing up the funicular rall-
roal which connects the hotel with the
town of Caux. Then th* exited family

til the' end of April.
At the Hygienic conference, which Is
sitting In Paris, the question of tho

shady dealers. «
He passed on the fraud to the city of

has been discussed with much warmth.
M. A. Gautier said that ulthough tea,
coffee and wine were of no value what
ever us nourishment, they were valua
ble a* nerve food, as they helped
quickly to dispel the sense of bodily
fatigue.
On the other hand Charles Fere con
tended that the use of stimulants
should not be encouraged at all, as the
effect they gave was not lasting, and
after tho firat excitement had passed
away the patient felt more fatigued
and depressed than before. People
should be taught to do without stimu
lants, and should so manage themselves
that they could do the greatest amount
of work with little expenditure of their
energy.
