The Gennett theatre's offering for Monday night is a distinct novelty inasmuch as it introduces a new star in a new musical comedy by Paulton & Jakabowski, the authors of "Ermine." The piece has been named for America, "Winsome Winnie," though it is called by another name in England where it is in the midst of a Ions run. The new star is very well knoAvn to most theatre goers in less ambitious positions. Everybody who enjoyed the dainty humor and excellent music of "San Toy," "The Runaway Girl," and "The Geisha" will remember the vital spirit of each Paid a Edwardes. Miss Edwardes, in the excellent company with which she was surrounded in all three of the attractions named during the life of the late August in Daly, "made good" to a degree which marked her in the appreciation of astute Broadway Theatrical managers as entirely suitable "timber" for a stellar career. The piece has just concluded a long run at the Casino theatre, New York from whence it comes direct to the Gennett with every detail of the intact. The company in support of Miss Edwardes contains many well known names as seen by reference to the appended list. Alexander Clark, Joseph C. Miron, Madison Smith, Isabel Hall, Budd Ross, Jeanne Calducci, Evelyn Carter, Aimee Ashmore, Wm. R. Philip, Annie Cameron, Caecellia Rhode and Wm. Leonard. c A Clever German Comedian. "The Silver Slipper," that great spectacular extravaganza, which all last season was the sensation at the Broadway theatre in New York City and which comes to the Gennett on next Wednesday, has for its chief comedian Enitz Edwards. The name itself is one to conjure with, signifying as it does an original vein of humor, gestures and gesticulations that invariably throw an audience into convulsions of laughter, and a dutch dialect as novel as it is comic. Local theatre goers remember him best of all, perhaps, in "A Dangerous Maid," and as one of the stars of the Weber & Field's organization. It was in the first mentioned company, as Schmaltz, a German wigmaker, that his eccentric comedy and versatility first caught the town and made a genuine sensation. In that as in all the other roles which he has since assumed, he seemed not only to improve opportunities but to make the opportunities themselves, and, needless to say, he is at all times excruciatingly funny. In the pesent instance he has a role which, al -though it allows him to retain that characteristic dialect, calls for even more versatility than any of his former assumptions, while at the same time putting the chief burden of the company element upon him. Henry Bismark, showman, card-sharp and all' round fakir, is the character which Mr. Edwards assumes in "The Silver Slipper," and, for grotesqueness of situation, gesture and characterization, it seems unparalleled. The make-up alone is a side splittinrly humorous caricature, and Ilenny's quaint, dry, broken dutch dialect is irresistably funny. This murdering of the English language is at no time 11 k it A ' l 4 ' : v X it 15 STRONGER THAN ITS INK 115 STRONGER!

man attempts to define and describe a squab. It is then that the comedian has his audience in an uproar, and for fully five minutes convulses every one with his inimitable attempt at a very simple definition of this plump young pigeon.

Whenever he is in the lime-light, and that is most of the time, the hilarity is incessant, and his every contortion, facial grimance, odd gesture and humorous expression is greeted with uproarious applause. It is useless to try to give any detailed description of his work, for, like certain other features of the great extravaganza, it must be seen to be understood, and once seen it is bound to be appreciated. THE MAN WHO KNOWS Secretary Taft Has Definite Policy for the Filipinc3. Washington, Jan. 30. The Philippines for the Filipinos will be the keynote of the policy of Secretary Ta.ft toward the far Eastern archipelago. In almost the last speech he made before leaving the Philippines for home, he reiterated this keynote, which he first sounded when he was inaugurated governor of the Philippine islands. This speech has been published by the insular government in an official form and has just reached the war department. In it Gov. Taft declared that this doctrine did not exclude the encouragement of American enterprise or the American investment of capital in the Philippines, for the reason that nothing, not even education or a free form of governm'inr "can make more for the elevation and civilization of the Philippine people than the investment of an American capital in the material development of these islands." Official Washington last night gave a cordial welcome to William H. Taft, the incoming secretary of war, at a reception given in his honor by retiring Secretary Root. There was a large attendance, including all army and navy officers in Washington above the rank of captain, the numbers of the cabinet, the committees r:i appropriations, military affairs and the Philippines of the senate and 01 the house. The reception was a stag affair and there were no speeches. Case Dismissed. Miller, S. D., Jan. 30. Hattio Piiclv er, a school teacher, who has been under arrest, charged with complicity in drugging Wilbur Quirk and attempting to lob a drugstore on Jan. 12, has been discharged after a hearing. Miss Pilcher on the night of the attempted robbery was wounded in the back. She told several stories as to how she received her wound, out the prosecution was unable to connect her with the Quirk case.. WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW The Weather Cut a Big Figure In Late Operations. New York, Jan. 30. Bradstreet's weekly review of trade today says: Weather conditions have been unfavorable throughout a wide area, and while in some instances helpful to retail trade, extreme cold or heavy snow have rather sharply checked spring trade and retarded transportation. There is a rather quieter feeling found also in several lines of speculation and industry. An exception to this is found in the South, which section, stimulated by almost undreamed-of cotton prices, is preparing to plant an enormous acreage. Spring trade, which was opening up actively in the Southwest, has been brought practically to a standstill for the time being by zero weather. Rather less satisfactory results come from the iron and steel trade. Southern iron is claimed to be unchanged, but Northern iron is weaker, foundry grades not being in active demand. The railroads are still out of the market for rails, .
