OROCERH OHIO AND ILLINOIS BTRR T8 THE THEATERS. To-Day Schedule. ENGLISH'S. Walker "Richard III," 8:15 p. m. Whiteside, in GRAND. Vaudeville. 2:15 and 8:15 p. m. PARK "M llss." 2 and 8 p. m. EMPIRE. "The Morning Glories," 2:15 and 8:15 p. m. The sudden temporary retirement from the stage of Miss Julia Marlowe would Seem to have another reason besides her fllness. It is announced that she will not act again for six weeks at least, and when she does appear it will not be in Catulle Mendes's "The Queen Fiamette." The play did not gain poularlty in Boston and Miss Marlowe and her manager were not satlsrd that it would prove as profitable as they desired. Miss Marlowe is said to be exhausted from overwork and she has gone to friends near Hot Springs. Va., to rest and examine some plays in manuscript. At English's this evening Walker Whitetide and his company will present "Richard III," and to-morrow afternoon and evening they will act in "The Merchant of Venice ' and "Hamlet." respectively. XXX "M'llss," a melodrama based on Bret Harte s story. 1 being acted at the Park Theater, where It is familiar. Miss Nellie McHtnry continues In the name part, a wild, good-hearted girl, the daughter of a drunkard and the pet of a miners' camp. Her fatker's mine is capable of producing a fortune, and a Mexican, a woman and a stranded doctor plan to get both M'llss and the old man out of the way. The girl is defended by a schoolmaster, who educates her and falls In love with her. The first act shows the settlement of Smith's Pocket; the second. Smith's old mine, wherein he is murdered; the third, a courtroom; the fourth, the Valley of the Sacramento. Miss McHenry plays M'llss in a spirited style and interpolates some songs. The play Is full of activity and pleases at the Park, but it is old and not up to the best level of that house. XXX Miss Hattie Williams has resigned from the Rogers Brothers' Company and Miss Maud Raymond probably will take her place. Miss Raymond is the wife of Gus Rogers. Miss Bonnie Maginn has quit the Weber A Fields company and may become a member of Mrs. Osborn's company, which Miss Grayce Scott and the Misses Hengler have deserted. At Mrs. Osborne's playhouse the curtain does not rise until 9 ock. "Tommy Rot." a musical farce, is the entertainment there. It is the unique and elite theater of New York. xxx Alfred Ayres, who had been an actor, a dramatist, a critic of the drama and literature, an authority in the use of the English language and a teacher of stage technique, died the other day in New York. His books, particularly "The Verbalist," have wide circulation, and his life work general ly was of a great deal of value. Alfred Ayres was his nom de plume, but he had worn it for so many years that few of his acquaintances knew it was not his own name. His real name was Thomas Emsley Osmun and he was born in Ohio in 1S34. As a young man he was an actor in the German theaters. For many years before his death he had lived in New York. He was stricken with paralysis and lay at the point of death for two weeks or more, and it is said that three days before his last, when a visitor mentioned a certain actor that he "merely played a small part." Mr. Ayres Interrupted with: "P you mean, sir, that he 'merely played a small part.' or that 'he played merely a small part?' " Mr. Ayres was never married. XXX Miss Ada Rehan has returned from New York after a sojourn abroad. Her professional plans are indefinite . xxx The remarkable paucity of genuine society singing acts on the vaudeville stage to-day compels a recognition as an interesting feature, even if the personality and the voices of the singers failed to call it forth. -f the duo now appearing at the Grand-the Misses O'Reilly and Manning. Persons posted in this branch of stage art declare that there is but one other similar straight singing turn the Neilsen sisters now on the vaudeville stage. There are medy. soubrette. dancing, song and dancing, sketch and men and women teams, but two young women with any pretense to good voices, cultured and singing a lair class of music are more than rare. in1 most commendable fact concerning these ladles is that they are determined to sing a correctly as possible and use tne latest good music and songs attainable, and when they sing the old songa they sing those that reach the heart. M . Miss Edith O'Reilly turned at first to ale opera, appearing for two years witn

Templetor.. Miss Kathryn Manning adopted the concert stage and made a good reputation In Chicago and cities of the mJdxie J61- About one year ago Colonel Hopkins, a vaudeville manager, heard them singing together in a concert, this being their first attempt at duets. He made them a proposition to appear in vaudeville and gave them some good advice. He requested them to sing while under contract to him l Scotch songs only, and they did so, making a hit of pronounced proportions. They sang "Annie Iaurie," "Comin1 Thro' the Rye" and "Maid of Dundee" with good effect. They received an ovation not alone from the occupants of chairs in the parquette, dress circle and balcony, but from the gallery. They were afterwards booked in all the big fashionable vaudeville houses of Chicago, St. Louis. Omaha. Kansas City and In the middle West. They wisely made a study of costumes and paid out considerable money for gowns of the latest and most stunning styles, but studied the cunning of the dressing art as applied to stage effects. They do not attribute their success alone to gowns nor to voices, but to the combination of good taste in dressing, good selection of songs and to using cultured voices. It is said, and perhaps justly, of the young women that they furnish to the vaudeville stage the best and most harmoniously blended voices yet heard in that line of stage work. Miss O'Reilly is a soprano with a sweet nigh note and skill in handling her voice that makes of it all that can be made. Miss Manning is a contralto with rich lower notes and a good compass. She could easily pass for that anomaly, a female baritone on the Helena Mora plan, but fortunatel ' she decided that such an act was not needed in her instance. They open the present act with the charming song "Carmenia Waltz Song." and for recall sing "Oh, Moment that I've Blest." They have a repertoire of some sixty or seventy songs, mostly semi-classical. They have a delicious Scotch accent, and when singing "Maid of Dtrndee" re

Later they received a letter of thanks from a gentleman with a Scotch name, and it was the old gentleman. They declare that Chicago audiences are the best for the high-class songs, and they say that here in Indianaoolls they have been pleased that they have met with such a good reception. They have many requests to sing good songs. In Omaha and Kansas City they expected that the popular songs would take best, but the demand was such that they had to put in some of the old songs. They give what is termed "a society act." They have a number of friends in this city through connections at the Boston Conservatory of Music, from which both graduated. They have been well entertained while here. They have received several offers to go in opera, but prefer vaudeville. Fleonora Das Indisposed. BOSTON, Oct. 30 Eleonora Duse was unable to appear at the Tremont Theater to-night owing to indisposition, which her physician says is only temporary, and due to nervousness. She has been under considerable anxiety in producing, in the first fortnight of her American tour, three difficult plays, that of "Francesca da Rimini" taxing her strength. Mrs. Patrick Campbell 111.

While Halloween, that weird yet merry festival of ancient and honorable repute does not enjoy the same prestige to-day that it did a few score years ago, yet it is safe to assume that many an American girl will try the old familiar Halloween tricks in this year of grace. Holding hot lead over a key and, as it runs through the open handle into a basin of water, watching the shapes it assumes, is one of the prettiest "tricks" one can try. If a palette is formed, according to the oracle of Halloween, one's husband will be an artist. Cannon balls indicate that he will be a

Edward Taylor, who lately has come from Chicago to be a teacher in the Indianapolis Conservatory of Music, gave a recital last evening at the German House. The principal feature of his programme was a suite with the general title of "Eililand Songs," by Alexander von Felitz. It is composed of ten correlated poems narrating a young monk's earthly love, his abbot's calling him to his duty, and his resignation of all thoughts except tho?e churchly. There are some fresh and interesting harmonies in the tale, but it is not of any special Importance. Mr. Taylor also sang two songs of his own composition, "At Twilight'' and "My Little Love," a madrigal, "The Rain and the Rose," by that successful exponent of delicacy, Mile. Chamlnade; Hastings's "A Red, Red Rose;" Tosti's "My Dreams," and "Oh, Moon of My Delight," a part of Liza Lehmann'! "In a Persian Garden." He displayed in this list a small baritone voice, skillfully directed, and a lively interpretative sense. He had a large audience and on it he made a pleasant impression. Mr. Taylor's assistants were Miss Ada Wheeler, pianist, who played the first movement of Mendelssohn's minor concerto, and Miss Sue Derexa Smith, violinist, who played a fantasy by Vieuxtemps. Edgar M. Cawley, at a second piano, played the orchestral part of the concerto. Miss Wheeler and Miss Estcile Gause were the accompanists. HOME DRESSMAKING HINTS. By MAY MANTON.

The strike of the members of the orchestras of the theaters and other places of amusement began at noon to-day. The strikers assembled at the Labor Exchange, bearing their instruments. Although the theater managers announced their purpose of fighting the strike a number of them have already yielded rather than risk the loss which would ensue from a protracted struggle. Most of the large music halls and cafes have also yielded and their orchestras have returned to duty though a number of them continue to resist and are giving performances without orchestras. The prefect of police having been advised of the intention of the strikers to invade theaters and wreck the instruments of substitutes posted a large force of police to preserve order at the threatened places of amusement.

I Sarah Bernhardt German? BERLIN, Oct. 30. The Stattsburger Zeitung avers that Sarah Bernhardt is German, asserting that she was born at Frankfort-on-the-Oder and that her father was a horse dealer named Felbel. The paper adds that a ship engineer who knew the facts of her birth met Mme. Bernhardt at a hotel in Copenhagen and talked with her in German and that she requested him not to mention the incident. The paper quoted is anti-Semitic and its editor was recently sentenced to two years' imprisonment for alleging that the authorities protected Jews in the celebrated Winter murder case at Könitz.

The garrison there is not threatened. HE KNOWS THE WEST, And the West Rallies to the Support 0 of President Roosevelt. Butte Inter Mountain. In Theodore Roosevelt the people of the United States have a President who comes nearer representing the ideal American than any other executive who has ever presided over the destiny of the Nation. Our Presidents heretofore have been particularly identified with the section of the country from which they were chosen, but Mr. Roosevelt peculiarly includes in his make-up the characteristics of North, South, East and West. In fact, he is a composite of the American citizen as you find him in all parts of the country. President Roosevelt is the first executive who has thoroughly appreciated the great West, as it Is to-day. a powerful factor in the union of American States. Before assuming the responsibilities of national magistrate he cast his lot among the Western people, and In this way h learned to know them as they really are. Out of this relation with the people in this section of the countrv President Roosevelt developed a great bond of sympathy for them, and by cultivating them he became thoroughly acquainted with their needs and interests. No President has ever held the Intimate knowledge of Western conditions that is possessed by Mr. Roosevelt. He has studied our problems, and already he shows that he is master of the situation, with all of the intrepid foresight and good Judgment of a wise administrative statesman. To President Roosevelt we are largely indebted for the efficient irrigation legislation that will reclaim the vast arid plains anil transform the West into an agricultural paradise. His firm stand on foreign policy is certain to develop the Oriental trade markets to the great benefit of Western towns and seaports. An ardent protectionist. President Roosevelt is certain to maintain a stiff tariff, which Is the basis of prosperity that is now blessing so many of our Western sources of productions. These are but a few of the many Instances wherein President Roosevelt has evidenced his friendliness to and interest in the West. That the people appreciate this great American statesman is being manifested anew every day in countless different ways. There can be no doubt that more former Western Democrats have left and will leave their party to support President Roosevelt than has ever been known before. It could not well be otherwise in a free country where a man attracts his following on account of his own real worth. Roosevelt is undoubtedly fearless in his treatment of public questions, and that la one of the characteristics that has made him more friends in the West than anything else. Furthermore, he is a thorough Republican and he has on numerous occasions shown that he Is true blue In regard to traditional party principles. Unlike moat party lead-

ers. he is unhampered by dictators, nor does he permit himself to be browbeaten for the sake of extending his Influence. President Roosevelt has won the confidence of the Western people and they will stand by him. Sentiment in Montana haB always favored President Roosevelt, and his influence has been increasing rapidly. The best way that the people of the treasure State can show their appreciation of him this year will be to elect a Republican congressman who will go to Washington fully equipped to aid the President in securing those benefits to the country for which he is so gallantly contending. To the same end a Legislature should be chosen that will insure the election of Republican United States senators. This step taken as a preliminary and Montana will be sure to be in line two years hence when Theodore Roosevelt will be elected President of the United States. LA SOUFFRIERE VIEWED

r ST. flMlUf ISLAND'S VOLCAXO VISITED BY SCIENTISTS. Description of the Changes Wrought by Recent Eruptions Further Outbreaks Feared. KINGSTOWN, St. Vincent, B. W. L. Oct. 30. Henry Powell, curator of the government botanical station here, J. P. Quinlan, of the British botanical station in Sierra Leone, West Africa, and E. W. Foster, of the British botanical station at Lagos, West Africa, accompanied by guides, visited the Souffriere volcano Oct. 28 and spent an hhur and a half on the summit. The party found the crater in activity. It was emitting volumes of steam and throwing up numerous cones of ashes from the Assure close under the southern wall to a height of forty feet. During the last half hour of the explorers' stay the crater became violent. Mr. Powell, who, from his frequent visits, is well acquainted with the features of the mountain, is satisfied that the new crater shows no signs of having been in eruption. The old crater has become more funnel-shaped than formerly, and is now deepest in its center. Volcanic ejecta, almost red hot and smoking profusely, has been heaped up around the interior walls of the crater to a height of several hundred feet. The rim of the crater is considerably wider than it was and the depression on the western rim, overlooking Morne Ronde, has been much lowered. In the center of the crater is a caldron of boiling water and close in under the southern wall is located the fissure from which large volumes of steam and ashes are seen to emerge. The steam and ashes follow the trend of the depression under the southeastern wall, and, gaining the summit of the volcano, are blown to the westward, thus giving the appearance of having come from the new crater. The party found no lava. The configuration of the mountain has been considerably altered. The sea is still encroaching upon the land at the Wallibou estate. The Wallibou river is dry at its mouth, but far inland It is running with fair volume in the small channels. The Journey from the seashore at Wallibou to the first ridge leading to the Souffriere is exceedingly difficult, aa there are cliffs and ravines to be passed. From the first ridge onward, with few exceptions, the road is easier. It is now impossible to cross from the leeward to the windward side of the island, over the mountains, because the southern rim of the center is more sharply defined than it was and the masses of ashes are almost red hot. There was slight eruption of the Souffriere the night of Oct. 28, when at a quarter past 8 loud groaning sounds were heard and a cloud of dark vapor was thrown out. These disturbances have continued and are causing much excitement at Georgetown, where earth tremors are continually felt. From the general appearance of the volcano another eruption of a serious nature can be expected. The administrator of St. Vincent visited the Georgetown district Oct. 26. He has advised the Governor of the Windward islands, Sir Robert Llewellyn, that it is advisable permanently to locate the people of the disturbed part of the island at North Union, which is at an appreciable distance from the volcano. Obituary. NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-Mrs. Fannie McKane, widow of the former political leader in the old town of Gravesend, John Y. McKane, is dead at her home on Long island.

Mrs. Ward's Play Criticised. LONDON. Oct. 31. Mrs. Humphrey Ward made her debut as a dramatist in London yesterday with a matinee presentation at the Court Theater of a stage version of her novel, 'Eleanor." The play is illconstructed, overloaded with dialogue and lacking In real dramatic interest, yet it gives evidence of the author's instinct for stagecraft and contains promise with experience of better things. A good cast, which included Elizabeth Robins and Marion Terry, procured the play a hearty welcome. The L'nhappy Dairymen. Jersey Bulletin.

The discovery of some new farts of science, the production of a valuable work, or the exploration of some hitherto little known region Is in itself a thinr of enormous value in the advancement of knowledge and progress of civilisation. While this is true, it Is quite as well for tht world to know and to appreciate the fac' that the direction of a. mammoth scient'nc enterprise, such, for example, as the Smithsonian Institution or the geological survey is an achievement of fully the sa-ne, if not greater, importance and value tn the advancement of knowledge than the discovery of some new force of nature or :the exploration of some terra incognita. It is one thing to proceed to a certain quarter of the earth and there carry on explorations, but quite another to determine, perhaps a year, or at th least six months in advance, where and to whit quarter of the earth to send a dozen or more exploring parties, in order to realize the greatest possible benefit for knowledge, for the money and time expen4ed in the work. While others may plume themselves upon having discovered one new fact, there are other men whose business it is, week in and week out, to direct the energies of a hundred men, pointing out to each where and how to look in order to discover facts that till then have remained un mown. Such a person is Prof. Charls Doolittle Walcott, director of the fnited States geological survey, whose work from year's end to year's end lies in directing what, beyond all doubt, is the most perfect engine of science in the world. Professor Walcott was born in New York Mills. N. Y., on March 31, 1850, obtaining his education in the public and high schools of l-tlca, N. Y. His parents attended to the matter of his education with a view to his entering upon a mercantile career, but early in life he showed a predilection for the t in sciences of geology and palaeontology, '.hat no "pent-up Utica" could stifle, an- which led him at the early age of thirteen years to take his first field excursion. ' In 1876 he received the appoint'nent of assistant to Prof. James Hale, state geologist of New York, and some time aUer this he made a geological tour for re earch purposes into Ohio, Indiana and Canada, following to their conclusion certain geological problems present in New York State and extending into the surrourding areas. In 1879 he was appointed assistant geologist of the geological survey, and for some years after performed work of a highly valuable character in surveying and studying the till then unknown and unexplored plateau country beginning in U:ah and extending south to the grand canyon of the Colorado. This work followed close upon the heels of Major Powell's first descent of the Colorado river, and was one of the most important geological enterprises ever carried forward in the United States. The year 1888 saw Mr. Walcott in New England studying the character of the Cambrian rocks of that area. Later he became palaeontologist and subsequently geologist in charge of palaeontology and geology in the survey, finally, on July L 1894, succeed'ng the late MaJ. J. W. Powell as director o the United States geological survey and a tine assistant secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, in charge of the National Museum. Professor Walcott found the survey in a highly organized and perfected condition at the time he assumed the direction of its affairs, and with this model engine he has since accomplished wonders in the way of exploration and in developing t'ie resources of sections that had long remained idle and unproductive. His latest work, the one which now and for some years to come will occupy his attention, is the mammoth scheme for irrigating the arid region of the West, for the execution of whiih plan Congress has appropriated the sum of 6.000,000. To attempt to enter Into the details of this plan would require a lrs;e volume, and it is enough to say that the aim and objective point of Director Walcott In carrying this project forward la to supply every acre of land in ths arid rssjion of the Wrest with water, a problem uch aa few nations and governments ever undertook to solve. One would imagine that Director Walcott would have his hands f ill with the management and direction of the affairs of the survey, and in the case of most any other man this would be true, but with him it is never too early or too late, too hot or too cold to labor for the advancement of science, and in addition to his duties In the survey and the national museum he finds time to discharge the other du-les as secretary of the Carnegie Institution and president of the Washington Academy of Sciences. Although most of his work has been of an executive character, he has nevertheless found time to prepare several books that enjoy a world-wide reputation as works of authority on the sciences of geology and invertebrate paleontology. The most important of these are entitled '"Palaeontology of the Eureka District.'' "Stratigraphy and Palaeontology of the Lower Palaeozoic (Cambrian) Formations" and other bulletins, monographs and studies of the sedimentation, stratigraphy and contained faunas of the Cambrian and other of the older formations of the earth's crust. He Is a member of the National Academy of Science and Washington Academy of Sciences, fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, associate fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, fellow of the Geological Society of America and member of the Geological Society of London and fellow of the Scientific Society of Christiana, Norway. The Geological Society of London conferred upon him the Bigsby medal for his achievements in the field of geology and palaeontology. It would be a difficult matter to convey to the minds of the public the nature and volume of the work performer' by Director Walcott in his direction of the work of the survey. Take, for example, one phase of his work that of explorations. In this department it is necessary for him to familiarise himself with the character of the various regions which remain wholly or in part unexplored, to review 'he reports of those who have the most knowledge concerning these places. He hrs to consider whether an exploration of suh and such a region will be of profit, and. if so. in what respect, whether it is likely to prove of benefit by reason of the 1ik lihood of discovering bodies of valuable ninerüis thereon or simply as an extension of our general knowledge and acquaintance af the diflYr-nt portions and outlines of the earth's surface. Then, after all this, he determines the amount of money which the survey can afford to spend, and the number and character of the men who can be assigned to the work in question. This Involves a degree of sound judgment such as few possess, and calls for work of the most severe an,d trying character. In the case of ProfeKsor Walcott it is not, as with other men who may and do commit blunders without entailing any serious consequences. With him a mistake or blunder is simply out of th. question, and would mean the loss of thousands of dollars and the lives of his nrn. without attaining any definite or beneficial results. Consequently, he Is. doubtless, the one man In Washington who cannot afford to make a mistake, and whose wort must be of the most perfect and borough character.
