THE 0KDER IS SOUND

st prkjie ni:coHDi:it nx defends tiii: ciiosnx friexds. 8n- the Attnck from Chlt-uo Is Uefclffned Simply to Crenle I3Uen Ions for the Heneflt of n Fctv. The members of the Order of Chosen Friends are much exercised In mind over the publications, in the . Chicago TimesHerald, of the alleged unfavorable financial condition of the order. The statement Is made in the Times-Herald that the order Is shadowed by a cloud of financial difficulty and that its older members are to have their certificates reduced one half in value. It Is reported that there is a movement on foot for the withdrawal of a large number of councils. The immediate cause of the threatened split is the Morse plan for putting1 hc order on a solid foundation, the plan taking its name from the man who secured its adoption at the Cleveland meeting. It reads as follows: "Section 287, A On the first day of October, lS1-, there shall be charged on the relief fund books against every member then in - good standing and thereafter against every member to whom a relief fund certificate is issued, such number of assessments as will realize the full sum of $Ti00 on each relief fund certificate fgr $1.0A and pro rata on a certificate for a greater or less sum, and there shall at the same time be credited 'every such member the full amount paid on account of each assessment prior to said date, and every member shall thereafter bo credited with all assessments paid nntll such member shall pay the full sum of VJ) on a relief fund certificate for Jl.ooo and pro rata for a greater or less sum." The purpose or effect of the plan, according to the Chicago paper, is to reduce the policies dne-half. The paper states that this is nece?sary because the liabilities of the order in the next two years will be over half a million dollars. Tho information was a painful shock to the several thousand members in this city. The councils are losing members, it is said, on account of the assessments becoming so numerous. There have been seventeen ordered this year. In a conversation yesterday Supreme Recorder Linn acknowledged that there would bo seventeen assessments this year, but he believed that under the new plan ther would be only sixteen next yen rand' that the number would continue to decrease, fl? the new provision known as the Morse plan would secure for the order a reserve fund. Ho said the Morse plan is a plain straight-forward business proposition. He wild the purpose of th new feature Ix to stop the Increase In the number of assessments, an increase due to the members growing old and dying more rapidly. He continued: "Some of our members evidently Jump to the conclusion that under the Morse plan a Jl,0") policy is worth only The new plan Is slmplv thin: We require each member to pay for Jl.OCW insurance. If a man has pnld In but one assessment and should die JV) could be paid on his fiolicy. When a member has raid in n assessments he stops paying and bis certificate is worth $U). All above that is paid in is added to the amount of his policy. "We are not dependent upon new blood coming into the order, but under the now plan there will b some accumulations, and It makes a better business proposition. In order to get such a start every member will be required to keep on paying assessments until January. 1902, whether h? has reached his maximum amount or not. The amount so overpaid will be added to his certificate and "when he is seventy-five years old 'will be paid to him. or If he dies before that time it will be paid to his heirs." Mr. Linn denied that the financial trouble was due to the expense in conducting the order. He quoted figures to show that te annual expense for each member la The total expense lat year was $7f.4?.".42 and the membership is S8,0S. The amount paid in claims last year was WW.U"). He gave the number of claims outstanding on Sept. IS as 1ST, amounting to J.OOO, but said full provision has been made for these on the assessment plan. The claims on the old age liability would be paid in the next two years, as they mature In the same way. He charges that the con-. tentlon and tne publication was surrey up by members of the order who want to organize a new order with themselves at its head. He Fald that one thousand would cover the loss of members on account of this attack and that the order has stood the test of a loss of five thousand in times past, owing to assaults and dissensions. COMIX OF TIIH IU:i 3IEV. Aiinnnl Meeting: of the Sun Connell 1o lie Held. Thin AVeek. " The twenty-seventh annual meeting of the Council of the Red Men will begin to-day in the order's headquarters in the Griffith Block. It is expected that 23) delegates will be present. The council will continue two days. There are now 12.47C members of the order in Indiana, an Increase sine last year of 1.4)o. There are IVi tribes in the State. The Council-of the Degree of l'ocahontas, the woman's auxiliary, will also assemble for a day's session. AMUSE3IKNTS. English "A 3111k White FI Interest in Hoyt's "A Milk White Flag" seems to be almost as acute as on the occasion of Its first presentation in this city two years ago. Ti.erc was an audience at English's last night which did not take up all the space in that largo theater, but it would have filled the Grand to the last row of seats. While It must be admitted that a Hoyt witticism has a stale flavor on second hearing, there was hardly any appreciable difference in the way the play was received from its rousing reception during- the previous engagement. Mr. Hoyt has made some alterations in tho production which result in greater brilliance and has cut out some of the objectionable features which the .New Ycrk critics scored during the long run of the piece at Hoyt's New York theater last season. The colonel of the Hansom guards does not buy th corpse from tho widow and the widow la thus robbed of a very good opportunity to take ott the widow as we see her in the comic papers. It was in this scene that Isabella Coo did one of her best bits in the farce as it stood originally. With L.ec Lamar taking the part of the widow the scene would not add much, for it must be stated that Miss Coe's absence is noticeable. Urnar burlesques tho part very charminKly, but he omits th brutally human touches that made Coe's widow so very, very rich. There are several new people in the cast and all seem to add strength to the production, so that it is perhaps true that, everything considered. "A Milk White Flag" is having a better production than with the original cast. Charles Stanley is the same old laughable Napoleonic Colonel and Uoyd Wilson, he of tho robusto tenor, plays the major even better than before. He still sings his serenade for two cases of champagne and Rets a double curtain call at the end of the second act. Frank Lawton, as the private with a penchant for whistling, continues to bold the palm as the "cracker jack" specialty performer with the "Flag." getting no less than four encores last nlRht. He whistled all the late songs and then came out with the bones" and gave some very clever Imitations. Charles Warren is the new General Hurley Uurlelgh. He is another one of those giant specimens which Hoyt so deliahts to spring on an audience. Hoyt is noted for his artistic finds and the women in "A Milk White Flag" are of this class, all talented and fine looking in some respect. In Clarisse Agnew, the little English ballad singer, he has a particularly fresh and charming soubrette. Her performance as the widow's daughter is faclnatlng and piquant. She la the best ballad singer who has been here this treason. Cora Tinnle has achieved considerable fame since she left tt r Indianapolis home, and it is somewhat disappointing that she has so little to do In the "Flag." Her character as the widow's friend Is the only one of its kind exactly that Hoyt has introduced in any of his farces. Very little depends on the few lines she has to repeat, but everything on how she looks the part. She has a plump, dimpled face round as the moon, with roguish eyes and makes the best possible use of them. A notice of the "lias" Mould not be complete without some mention of the four vivandlers whom Hoyt has designedly made a quartet of loveliness. Alice Campbell has a soprano of sufficient jKwer for a prima donqa ami Marv Rltlln come in with a r!t contralto. Unt the two that made h. hit ar the Anjrcle slaters. Amlee and IK-tlte Iieah. Thy aro both clever dancers. iartlcularly lktle Leah, who very much

suggests Lullu Gla?sef, Francis Wilson's soubrette support. She is little more than a girl, not yet sweet sixteen, but already a soubrette of no mean attainments If she retains her health she will toe heard from in the years to come. One would never guess that this is her first theatrical engagement, except, perhaps, by the freshness and originality of her work. "A Milk White Flag" remains at Eng. lish's until Thursday with a popular, matinee Wednesday. Tnvary Grand Opera. Conipnuy. The Tavary Grand Opera Company, which is to give Indianapolis Its first treat of grand opera in years, opened the season at Pittsburg last night. This Is the only company of any size giving grand opera in English in this country to-day, and the list of really excellent singers who are associated with Mme. Tavary insure a h!hclass rendering of the operas to he eung here tho last half of next week. Tho engagement will open with "Faust," to bo followed by "Cavalleria Rustlcana." "Lucio," "Carmen" and Lohengrin. Another point in favor of manager Pratt's organization are the popular prices at irhlch his company Is appearing. Mr. Pratt's experience of years, during many of which he managed the famous tours of Emma Abbott, has given him an Insight Into the methods of tho operatic stage. This year he has made a distinct departure In having each opera virtually a new production. Mr. Pratt has ppent large sums in bringing from Europe high-priced artists to complete his great organization this year. The chorus and orchestra are larger this year than usual. Tho list of artists includes Marie Tavary. Theo. Dorre, Mile. LIchter, prima donne soprano; Rella Tomiins, prima donna contralto: Sofia Romanl, soprano: Suzanne Ryane, contralto; Chev. Gulllc, the famous French tenor; Payne Clarke, tenor robusto: F. Mlchelena, a handsome Ivrtc tenor: Max Eugene, English baritone; Slg. Abramhoff, basso profundo; William Schuster, basso cantata, and William Stephens, tenor. The orchestra is under the direction of Carl Martens, a splendid maestro. Pork "lllrds of a Feather.. "Birds of a Feather," a sensational comedy drama, cpeneJ at the Park yesterday afternoon for three days. There is a good deal of comedy, a little sensation and a fair amount of drama in "Birds of 'a Feaher." but altogether they combine, to make a very entertaining play. The fact that the popular German comeJIan, Pete Baker, Is in the cast helped draw out big houses yesterJay. "Birds of a Feather" is the name of a band of counterfeiters.. The comedy work in the play is strong, lola Pomeroy as Violet Is a clever soubrette, and her specialties were -well received. Pete JIaker and Will Iinff were especially

gooi as tne two country boys who "lined out" with the circus, and In their specialties were recalled again and again. Tne sensational rescue of Bob by Violet from the burning building, which she does by walking tho telegraph wires from the house in which, she is imprisoned, is thrillInp anl novel. Fauchetto's dancing Is another clever feature. "Birds of a Feather" runs to-Jny and to-morroy, and "Iand of tho Midnight Sun" follows Thursday. Empire "South llefore the AVnr." "Tho South Before the War" ha? lost none of the popularity it achieved on its fir?t appearance at the Empire. All three Iloor3 were filled at both performances yesterday. Whallen 4i Martell are carrying a larger company this year without aly diminution in the quality of the wcrk giyen. All the old favorites arc retained, including Billy Williams, as Auntie Chloe, Ferry, the Frosj, and the four quartet which were so well received last year. Symonds and Rastt's aro a late addition to the company. Their buck and wing dancing is as clever as any ever done by white men. Katio Carter gives an excellent exhibition of fancy dancing. The prrfoimanct eonelu.tes, as heretotore, with a cake walk, participated in by all the colored members of the company, eliciting much enthusiasm from the audience. "South Before the War" remains here today and to-morrow. A'nten of the StnRe. The coming of "Billy" Barry 'to English's the last half of this week in "The Rising Generation" will take theater-goers back to the Jays of Barry and Fay, probably the cleverts? team of lrisli comed'.at.s on .the stage. El sat years ago they toured the country with much success in McKenna's "Flirtation," and those who saw them will rrrll th !ntpne!v- fnnnv scenes be tween the tall, thin Fay and the Fhort. rotund Jiarry. The latter's latest play, which will be seen here, is ssld to afford him rare opportunities for comedy work. " At the Grand on Frulay and SaturJay of this week Clara Morris will appear In three plays, one of which has never beeen played by her In this city, and has been aJJ'd to the present tour. The opening bill will bo "Camille," to be followed at the Saturday matinee by "Miss Moulton." "Raymonde." which is said to be one of the best plays Miss Morris has yet given, will bo the Saturday night bill. Slg. Abramhoff, the great basso, with the Tavary Opera Company, comes from the Metropolitan Opera House and for years before his engagement there sang in the great Wagner festivals at Bayreuth. His Berlin triumphs were especially notable anl his work is said to be of the hignest character. CHILDREN'S CHORUS. Arrangements Made for Its Organization This Winter. There was a meeting held at the Metropolitan School of Music last evening for the purpose of making arrangement for conducting the chJUren's eelect chorus. The chorus wa3 in existence two winters and the concerts given at the close of the season were remarkable. Only those children who have some musical talent will be admitted. The children are taught to read music, to sing solos and in the chorus. The benefit is one that scarcely" can be estimated.
