Park "Ilia Better Half The patrons of the Park Theater are getting action, bright, clever action, for their money the last three days of the week. "His Better Half" never lags, every member of the company works hard for his wages and the audiences yesterday laughed from curtain to curtain. Charles Boyle and Carrie Graham, a well-known team, are featured in the show, but the other players are as smart as the stars. The play itself is a farce-comedy full of ginger, and the specialties that run through it are of the best. Boyle and Braham and tne rest of the company wind up the first act with a cakewalk that excited the audience. The second act ends with a mock "Sousa and His Band," with Borle as Sousa. He mlmlci the great director's gestures and plays with his beard in a killing" way. lie had to "do it over again" last night to satisfy the audience. Miss Graham has a burlesque of a country girl in the second act. She calls the character "Sal Skinner," but it is the counterpart of Rose Melville's "Sis Hopkins." Miss Graham was with Miss Melville in "The Prodigal Father" while Miss Melville was doing the turn. Miss Melville has made a great hit with it in New York and has had it distended into a three-act play. Miss Graham does not do the character an well as Miss Melville, though she used many of the same lines, but did it well enough yesetrday. to convulse two large audiences with laughter. - The Five Xosses, all excellent musicians, play the William Tell overture and the intermezzo rrom "Cavalleria Rusticana" on saxophones. Hastings and Wright are two versatile singers who can even win applause with such a song sentiment as "Don't Speak Her Name." Their cleverest work is in a "coster rendition" of "I Love You In the Same Old Way," which is really an artistic piece of wcrk. There are others who add to the merriment and help to serve the show hot from the start to the finish. It Is one of the best entertainments the Park has had tn several years. Ml ms Fletcher's Sadden Illness. The Grand was closed last night, owing to the sudden illness of Miss Kate Fletcher. A large audience was disappointed. Money was refunded to tho?e who wished it, but most of the people exchanged their seats for one of the remaining three performances of "The Nominee." Miss Fletcher's illnes is not at all serku., and she will be able to appear to-nlht. Such an occurrence Is rare, and had there been a little more time the cast could have been rearranged and the performance given. There is a largo reserve sale for to-night and to-morrow afternoon and night. Jalla Morrison Indicted. CHATTANOOGA. Tenn., Sept. 2S. Miss Julia Morrison, the actress, was indicted this afternoon by the grand Jury In the Circuit Court of this county for the murder of Frank Leiden, or Leidenheimer, of the "Mr. Plaster of Paris" Company at the opera house in this city Friday evening, Sept. 22. The name of George J. Antz, of New Orleans, brother-in-law of Leiden, appears on the court papers as prosecutor. The case is set for hearing, on Tuesday, Oct. 2. The prisoner was greatly depressed by the announcement of the action of the grand Jury, but she was later very much cheered by several members of the grand Jury who called to tee her, and stated that while they were compellt d under their oaths to And an indictment, they felt sure that she would be acquitted on the State's testimony alone. Miss Morrison has taken very little nourishment since her Incarceration in the county jail and appears haggard and careworn. She stated that there are details connected with the tragedy that had not been brought out and that would not be adduced In evidence unless it became necessary to her acquittal. Funeral of John Sleeper Clarke. LONDON. Sept. 28. The remains of John Sleeper Clarke, the American comedian, who died on Monday, were Interred to-day at Teddington Cemetery.

The company which will appear In it is under the dlrectnn of Mr. Kirk IaShell. who H also proprietor f the Frank Daniels Opera Company, and Mr. Fred It. Hamlin, business managir of th Grand Opera Houw, fnlcago. Arizona" was given Its initial production In Mr. Hamlin' Theater on June 12 ami ran four months. In next week's production of ."Fast Lynne" by the Grand stock company Mr. Macy will appear as Sir Francis Lcvlson and Mr. Kolker as Archibald Carlyle. Thus do the two actors exchange characters, for In "Jim Lie Penman" Mr. Kolker was the villain and Mr. Macy - the man with a rrlevance. In Sir Francis Lcvlson Mr. Uacy has about as thorough a sc-oundrel t represent as there 1 to be found in any

((1

play. Mr. Kolker as Carlyle is the embodiment of pretty much all the virtues. The stock-company idea Is prevailing so generally over the country that the dramatic papers are devoting a department to it. Frederick Paulding, a well-known Shakspearean actor, is stage manager of the company at Milwaukee. It opened its season with "Madame Sans Gene." "The Girl I Left Behind Me" is a favorite which has not yet been given by the Indianapolis company. Miss Violet Hand. Ingenue of the local stock company, is at Cincinnati this week playing the Indian girl In this play. She had this role in on of the famous New York runs. At Chicago the Dearborn Theater stock company has given "Lady Windermere's Fan" and "Charley's Aunt" thus far this season. Henry Jewett, who will star this season in "The Choir Invisible," Is said to strikingly suggert in personality the hero of James Lane Allen's enthralling early Kentucky romance. "A young fellow of powerful build, lean, muscular, much physical beauty in head, almost no beauty in the face; rugged; as a rock, but as a rock is made less rugged by a vine creeping over it. bo his was soft

ened by a fine network of nerves that wrought out upon it a look of kindness." is the way the author puts it. Off the stage Jewett is said to be all of these. Last season he was John Storm in "The Christian." His earli?r fame rests on his work as leading man for Julia Marlowe several seasons ago. Magician Kellar has a novelty called The Levitation of Princers Karnac. He places a young girl upon a couch at the back of the stage, covers her partly with a cloth, and waving his hands, raises her about four feet in the. air, where she remains without any visible support. To prove that there are no wires, Kellar passes an ordinary hoop completely around the body several times. He then waves his hand again and the girl descends slowly to the couch. When she again rests upon it, the magician removes the cloth and she Jumps up and runs off. bowing and Bmillng. while Kellar acknowledges the enthusiastic applause which greets this, the most marvelous trick he has ever performed. The Pan-American exposition, to be held in Buffalo in 1901, has devised an emblem which is attracting much attention over the country. The outlines of the two Amer lean continent have been transformed Into a beautiful symbolical picture. It represents a North American woman holding out her hand to her South American sister. It is now proposed to make a great number of plaster medallions of this picture for the exposition and the management thinks the portraits of two American actresses would be about the right thing and with that end in view has invited opinions from dramatic editors as to who are the two deserving favorites of the stage. It is further proposed to have a building at the fair ornamented with panels of twelve nymphs and American actresves will be given a change in this display. Of the medallions, it is said, one million will be made. PERSONAL AND SOCIETY. Mrs. Charles Boldt. of Muncle, is visiting Mrs. Antony Bals. Mrs. W. W.

He boarded the train at Cincinrati. and the train had scarcely left the station before he began to act que-:r-ly. Ha Fald he was Lieutenant Carr and was on his way to St. Louts. Ho said he had served with Roosevelt's Rough Riders in Cuba, and during one of his rational moments produced a magazine which contained his picture and which showed that ho was really a soldier. Uetwoen Cincinnati and Lawrenceburg the man was very violent. He drew a large revolver, which vas loaded, and flourished it aw. it I is ht.au. Most of the time he remained in the smoking car, but made one trip through the ladies' car and caused some excitement there. One of the passengers finally induced him to give up the revolver and the weapon was put where he could not get it again. The conductor of the train telegraphed to this City to have policemen at the station when the train arrived. Sergeant Schwab met the train, but tho man was quiet when he entered the car. and some of the other j passengers promising to take care of the unfortunate fellow, the sergeant decided to let him remain on the train. Thf. man said he had yellow fever in Cuba and lad been in the hospital. GAS FOR RESIDENCES ONLY. Fuel "Will Xot De Supplied La rare Blocks or Factories.

QUESTIONS FOR 70,000,000

CE1VSIS DlflECTOR MEHRIA3I HAS PREPARED A LIST. Interrogatories AV1II Be Simpler and Fewer than Wben the Last i.cusu YVa Tnken-Snmoan Claim. WASHINGTON. Sept. 25.-Ex-Governor Merriam, the director of the census, has had Feveral conferences at the "White House recently as to matters pertaining .to his bureau. Among these, it is said, is the subject of - questions which are to be propounded to the 70,000,000 people of the country next June. They have been decided upon by Director Merriam and will soon be printed. They have met with the approval ot the President, It Is said. In general the endeavor has been made to make .the questions simpler than before and to reduce their numbers. This Is in accord with the views of the census committee of the two houses of Congress. Several of the questions which aroused tho most antagonism in 1SC0 have been omitted altogether. The chief of these was the Inquiry of each person whether he or she had any acute or chronic disease. The British commissioner to Samoa, Mr. Eliot, has received from Apia a full report pn the claima made by British subjects for damages resulting from the bombardment and the native uprising. The claims aggregate something above 7.000. Of this amount about 6.000 grows from tho depredations of the Mataafa rebels in January and March last, while some 1.000 is for losses resulting from the bombardment of the British-American naval forces and the succeeding operations on land. There are a large number of separate claima. showing the damage to have been widely distributed. A claim of 810 for tho sacking of a residence near Apia and the destruction of a cocoa plantation gives an idea of the wanton destruction characterizing the native uprising. The original amount of the claims was double that now submitted to the British commissioner, as they were first subjected to rtKid scrutiny by a British official at Apia. Besides the schedule of claims, a considerable amount of general information as to the situation in Samoa was brcught in the la?t official mail. There was ro evidence of any rt!?crder. however, and no apprehensions expressed as to another native uprising. Mr.. Eliot called at the White House today and nad a talk with the President, in the course, of which Mr. McKInley expressed his satisfaction with the work of the fcamoan comniion. There appears to be no doubt that the American and British authorities are prepared to carry out the plan proposed by the commission for the future government of Samoa, but it Is not so certain that the Germin trovemraiiit is i epared to accept the findings ot tho comn.lssion in toto.. TJ-day's naval orders announce the cancellation of the order of the 11th inst. assigning Rear Admiral Howell to the command of the Norfolk navy yard and direct him to remain at his present position at the head of the naval examining board. This action was taken at the Instance ot the rear admiral himself, who prefers to remain here for the present. The order 01 Rear Admiral Farquhar to take command of the North Atlantic station has been modified so as to fix the date of the change as Oct. 14. John F. Carr, of Lafayette, has been selected by Assistant Secretary Webster Davis, of the Interior Department, to serve as his private secretary. The position pays $2,000 per rxnura. Rural freo delivery has been ordered established at the following Indiana towns, to commence Oct. 9: Fowler, Benton CountyOne carrier: length of route. 31 miles; area covered. 29 square miles: population served, 800. Regular carrier, Fred H. Jones; substitute, Burt H. Jones. Topeka, Lagrange County One carrier; length of route, 24 miles; area covered. 30 square miles; population served. 600. Regular carrier. Charles B. Hartseller; substitute, Ephraim E. Hartseller. ' Col. Tasker H. Bliss, of the commissary department, collector of customs at Havana, has made a report to Assistant Secretary Melklejohn concerning the employment of Americans in the Cuban customs service. In which he replies to an allegation that Americans were monopolizing the places in the service. He shows that on July 1 last there were 595 persons employed In the service, of whom 545 were natives and fifty Americans. At five of the sixteen ports there are no Americans employed, except the army offlcer who is acting aa collectorDirector of Posts Rathbone reports to the postmaster general that he has issued an order restricting the issuance of money orders in Cuba to five a day from one remitter to one payee. Tl:e order was issued to correct what was considered an abuse of the money order privilege. The banks complained that tho system was materially injuring them. The secretary of the interior has authorized the agent of the Cherokee Indians to remove from the reservation of that tribe all persons who refuse to pay their taxes under the tribal laws. Orders have been issued to stop recruiting for the Thirty-eighth and Thirty-ninth Volunteer Infantry, tho?e regiments having secured an excess of recruits. The two colored regiments are making steady progress In recruiting. The total enlistment to date is 11,482, only 1.603 short of the total number required to complete the volunteer army up to its maximum under the President's last two calls. If the recommendations of Chief Constructor Hlchborne, of the navy, for the three new battleships Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Georgia are adopted by the Board of Construction of the Navy Department, the United States in the course of several years will have the iinest battleships afloat. Admiral HIchborne's recommendations contemplate a speed of twenty-one knots, a coal capacity of 2,501 tons, a displacement of 15.000 tons, a main battery of four ten-Inch guns and a nine-inch Krunp armor belt. The most radical departure in Admiral HIchborne's plans is that of speed. At the present time the fastest battleship in the navy Is sixteen knots, although the Maine, Missouri and Wisconsin, which are now under construction, are to have ppeed of eighteen knots. The fastest battleship in any foreign navy is approximately twenty knots. The President's Western trip 4s developing rapidly, and at the urgent request of political friends is being extended at a remarkable rate. Senator Allison Is insisting upon several stops in Iowa, and tho President will undoubtedly yield. The Itinerary in its final form will not be ready for announcement before the President's departure and may be changed after the start Is made. It remains undecided whether Admiral Dewey will accompany the party. He has a pressing invitation to participate in ceremonies at Boston early in October and may decide to attend because of the nearness to his Vermont home. The admiral Is reported as tiring under the strains cf the celebrations and may feel the necelty of taking a rest after he gees through the Washington ordeal. The President Is waiting to learn the admiral's wishes, and should he find ii possible to accompany the party West the plans will bo materially changed. To-day's statement of the condition of the treasury shows: Available cash balance, $2K,24,290; gold reserve, $254,336,614. Conventional Confusion. Detroit Journal. "It is curious," remarked the Lay Figure, "that people think the dumdum bullet pclsonous." "Not at all," rejoined the Unconscious Imbecile. "You see, immediately the dumdum bullet enters a body it mushrooms. Now, most people don't know the difference between a mushroom and a toadstool, and a toadstool is poisonous. Curious? Why, It's tho most natural thing in t!ie orld for people to think that." Of the others, not one forgot that he was a gentleman. The forthcoming production of Egypta has becomo a topic of conversation, which, however, is hardly a cause for surprise when one learns how many of our most gifted and fopuiar young peopie are actively engaged n the rehearsals. Not only is there the great festival chorus of adult singers, but there is also a chorus of several hundred young girls from the various Sunday schools, to say nothing of the many soloists chouen from among Indianapolis' leading vocalists. Among the moit Interesting features will be the fancy rrutltary drill by sixteen lad In Oriental untfoims, who carry spears, and the bewildering L'Orlentale Caitlnetto by sixteen graceful little mald-tna.
